Dear News Editor(s),
As a WWJ 950 listener and an immigrant living in Michigan, I am concerned about the negative impacts on immigrants by the airing of your show "WWJ Business Breakfast" with Mr. LOU DOBBS, which is scheduled to air on Nov 29 between 8 a.m. - 9:30 a.m.
Mr. Dobbs is known for his strong views against immigrants, including considering immigrants to be responsible for the spread of incurable diseases such as Drug-resistant Tuberculosis, Leprosy etc. From past experience on CNN, he is also highly likely to blame the current crisis in Auto Industry to the so-called "importation of cheap labor from third world countries".
He is known to make exaggerated statements such as "Four hundred thousand H1Bs granted in a year" where as facts show otherwise. As per government figures, federal government awarded 124,096 H-1B visas in the fiscal year ending October 2005, the most recent annual totals available. That includes renewed visas, which don't count against the annual cap. These dramatic exaggerations distort the reality and provide a falsified alarmist view of the situation; which works against the interests of Immigrants ,businesses and American economy.
In the interests of fairness, you should also air the counter-views while providing coverage to such strong one-sided views. This would provide a balanced coverage to your viewers.
In the absence of such unbiased coverage, Mr. Dobbs verbal attacks may provoke physical attacks against foreigners as well as any foreign-looking persons by misguided elements provoked by your show. If such incidents do happen, please understand that your network will be indirectly responsible and liable to the foreigners affected.
As a concerned party I would like to know -
1) What action your network is taking to provide coverage of the other point of view, in the interests of fairness?
2) What action is your network taking to ensure that Lou Dobbs verbal attacks on foreigners do not translate into physical attacks on foreigners living in Michigan?
3) What action is your network taking to ensure that Lou Dobbs doesn't use exaggerated falsifications to justify his views. providing your listeners a wrong picture?
Appreciate hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
xxxxx

entire debate, except for may be one statement for legal immegrants there was no mention of questions we so passionately voted for. I think its mostly a lost battle.... for us. Unless we unite and stand strongly.......

Nothing was mentioned about H4's ability to work before because it has never been asked before as an agenda item for Immigration Voice. Yes, the inability of H4 visa holders to legally work has been discussed several times on this forum but no one has asked for it to become an agenda item or a goal for this organization before. Today it happened, and so I clarified that H4 related issues, the issues that affect only H4 are not a part of this organization. There are many agenda items that improve the situation of H4 spouses. Indirectly thru most of Immigration Voice goals, H4 spouses get benefit. And that is plenty of reason for H4 spouses to support Immigration Voice.
However, none of IV's goals have an item dedicated to H4 that benefit H4 only.
Goals of Immigration voice are listed on the homepage. Under item called "Immigration Voice Goals".
Ability to file for final stage of the Green Card even without visa number availability – this will provide tremendous relief during the long wait since it will allow applicants to transfer to jobs with an identical job description, travel freely, and allow their spouses to contribute to the economy.
Eliminate dependents from the employment-based immigration numerical quota – so that industry does not have to wait for green card employees while dependents use up an allotment that is meant for high-skilled workers.
Increase the employment-based immigration annual numerical quota and keep the per-country limit 'soft' – recognize industry needs and admit more high-skilled immigrants who enhance U.S. competitiveness and bring productivity gains for both immigrants and natives, raising the standard of living for the population as a whole.
Recapture previous years' unused employment-based immigration visa numbers from before FY 2006, and going forward make the recapturing process automatic – due to USCIS inefficiency visa numbers are lost every year even as hundreds of thousands of applicants wait, this would keep those visa numbers in the pool.
Allow applicants (a) with advanced degrees in Science, Technology, Engineering or Related Fields or (b) who have worked for more than 3 years in the US on H-1B, to automatically apply for adjustment of status and get their green cards without regard to the employment-based numerical quota – these workers enhance American Competitiveness.
Labor Certification Backlogs: Draw policy maker and DOL attention to huge backlogs in labor certification. Bring accountability and efficiency to DOL Backlog Elimination Centers - insist that BECs give clear information on case status and processing methods.
Immigration Processing (I-140/I-485) Backlogs: Draw policy maker and agency attention to huge backlogs in processing. Bring accountability and efficiency to USCIS Backlog processing - insist that USCIS give clear information on case status, pending security checks and the number of cases pending by category, national origin and priority date.
Convert all single-year H1-B, Employment Authorizations (EAD) and Travel Documents (Advance Parole) extensions to three year extensions – USCIS spends more resources issuing these interim documents than processing green cards in part because they must be renewed every year. Providing three year extensions would provide relief to both applicants and USCIS.
And yes, one more thing about H4 spouses:
A few months ago, we requested volunteers for Immigration Voice around DC, Maryland, Northern Virginia area. And we explicity said we need a volunteer to visit some offices occassaionally on behalf of IV, including lawmakers offices and offices of our lobbyists. H1s usually cannot take away 10-15 hours per week away from business hours (9-5) but H4 spouses can spare time during business hours to meet the lawmakers with out lobbyists a couple of times a week. We had one volunteer on H4 who worked very hard last year in DC but she was unavailable now this year for several weeks and is still not available these days and may not be available anytime soon.
Do you know how many of the hundreds of H4 spouses living in DC area volunteered to help?
Exactly 0.
So go figure, why this organization does not have any issues the directly benefit H4 only in its agenda item.
Thanks.

It is very difficult to get a bill passed in House for increasing visa numbers. Be it legal or illegal there is no way House will pass anything that increases visa numbers this election year. I am doubtful even for next year.
For this year or for now we should just get something like "ability to file 485 even when visa numbers are unavailable". This is something which will provide some relief to all of us and has good chance of going through. Subsequently we can keep trying to get the SKIL bill passed next year.
Absolutely. Now with PERM and premium 140, if we can file 485, and then hit the snooze button for 10 years -- no problem for me. I know, not everyone will be lucky to board onto the PERM, but atleast it will be relief for most of us.

1)all lc's irrelevant of when they were approved have a 45 day life after rule gets published. within 45 days the lc has to be used.
2)Since there is no more substitution all lcs not used by the orignal applicant are dead after 45 days.
3)all substituion applications which do not have approved i140 are also dead at the time the rule is published.
This is what i have inferred and i may be wrong! Anyway no more cutting ahead in the queue or sale of lcs also no use anymore for i140 revoking for the employer!! Cheers for this rule!

Not being judgmental at all. This is a question that has to be posed to the HR department in the company and not to 'peers' on a forum. The profile says he/she is on EB2 and then he/she goes on to ask this
"let me know if they have done EB2 with this scenario." WTF! :D While I'm not against getting your degree online or IGNOU but you need to at least have the acumen to geo-locate yourself it nothing else :D Other skills are far superlative and come much later :D
not all HR depts are helpful or even knowledgeable about the immigration process.
"geo-locate" ??? what are you talking about?
i myself was quite clueless about the immigration process when i started out and got stuck in EB3 unnecessarily. Even though my company is one of the best in the industry they had never done H1 or GC before i came along and were quite clueless about it.
This forum is meant for asking immigration questions...lets be helpful rather than speculate on the person's circumstances or acumen.

Hello I got a yellow form 221(g) during my interview. Got my passport and approval back during the interview.
Are other people in PIMS getting this yellow form/ 221(g) stating that "when administrative processing is completed in your case we will contact you"?
This will allow me to decide if I am stuck in PIMS or something else.
**** 28 days since interview, visa approved today****
Dear Vamsi, SVK, NK, Shahuja, Abuddyz, lost_in_gc, and all eligible visa aspirants:
I just got an email from the Chennai consulate, 29th day from the interview, stating the visa was stamped today:
"Thank you for your e-mail.
Our records show that your visa was issued today, January 31. You
should be receiving your passport/visa soon.
Visa Information Unit
American Consulate General
Chennai 600006, India
Telephone: 91 44 2857 4242
Fax: 91 44 2811 2027
Website: http://chennai.usconsulate.gov"
This means there is light at the end of the tunnel. Please have faith in your abilities, and in your God. You will hear back soon.
Moral of the story: "Never use a Consulate in India for visa re-validation again."
Please learn from this story, and never again trust Consulates in India for extension purposes.
God bless you all.

Hi Folks,
I know that with a deluge of applications, the question I am asking might not be relevent in the current scenario (July filers), but what is the historical EAD processing time? I know they say that USCIS will issue one within 90 days, but does it always take 90 days or is lot lesser?
I remember when I got EAD during OPT, it took like 30-40 days on average. Does the same hold for the EAD for EB too?
Appreciate your response. thanks!

Can you please tell me what restrictions we have when we travel thru london.

There is vast difference between US and Indian housing market crash. India RE market will not collapse like here. There may be a melt down or small correction. The simple big reason is demand for housing in middle class due to economic growth. Based on population density, US is 9 times bigger than India. Lot of land in US. But housing land is so limited in India. So there is always demand. Second reason, there is no sub-prime lending in India. Third, in India, housing loan is based on cash worthiness rather than credit worthyness like in US. So we may not see such a massive foreclosure/bankrupcy in India to bring the price down considerably like in US.
However, now the prices or extremly high, such that it can not be affordabe to people other than NRI or IT folks. 1 crore houses are very common now. Based on US economy it will definitly come down. It will be depend on how hard IT/outsourcing bussiness gets affectd in future.
True, but you are forgetting the basic definition of demand. Demand is willingness to buy supported by ability to buy. If you are from any metros in India, think how many of your Non-IT, mainstream friends draw more than Rs. 50,000 per month? How can someone making even Rs. 50,000 a month afford 50 Lakh flat?
If there are 10 people drooling out side Ferrari showroom that does not mean there is demand for 10 Ferrari :)
Cheers

There is a funding drive in this other thread towards reimbursing the administrative costs of IV.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/sh...ad.php?t=10708
Could you please pledge an amount ?
I support this idea to have a funding drive to help Aman recover his financial losses. We can never thank enough for the time and effort that was put in. Its a pain we need to share. Celebrating and saying thanks to IV is nice. But contribution is only way to say thanks. Think about it if we had to file with new filing fee, we would have paid 3 times what we paid now. Its amazing and we are fortunate to have people like Aman, logiclife and other IV core have such selfless and sacrificing nature.

I've filed for my 140 with a substitute labor in July of 2007 under EB 3. The labour had a priority date in 2002.
My company has around 50+ employees and has been doing good from over 12 years. All the employees are being paid as promised from the start.
I joined the company in Jan of 2006 and was being paid in time and as promised from day 1.
There was an RFE raised on my 140 filed with substitution with rgrds to Ability to Pay. The proferred wage mentioned in the Labour was 75K and my company had the ability to pay in 2002, 2003 and 2004 based on their financial documents except for the year 2005.
In 2005 the company started a new division and hired several people, basically they were restructuring their company for the future and there net or gross whatever income was in -ve, They spent a lot of money on training, hiring etc.., which are reflected in their financial documents.
They were back too good numbers in 2006 and 2007 while i was working for them. In 2006 my W-2 show salary less then the proferred wage in the labour and at that point of time the company nor myself had any idea that we would substitute this X labour for me, But the companies numbers were good to support the difference of amount in 2006.
In the year 2007, i had a good hike, but was still below the proferred wage but only by 3K, and again the company had enuf finances to support the difference of amount.
Starting of 2008, i got another good hike and am way above the proferred wage.
Now the RFE was raised for Ability to pay from 2002 to current date, the current date being March 2008 when the RFE was raised.
My company submitted all the docs required and for the RFE and also clearly explained the reasons for the numbers being bad in 2005. They submitted my w-2's for 2006, 2007 and salary stubs for Jan and Feb of 2008 along with their tax returns, etc from 2002 to 2007.
Now the Response has been file on March 28th and am awaiting the decision, has anybody faced any similar situations and what could be the results you guys predict.
Would the USCIS consider only 2 months of my salary stubs in 2008 to qualify my case as being paid more than the proferred wage or would they scrutinize every other thing....
Any replies are appreciated.... Thanks
My company has around 50+ employees and has been doing good from over 12 years. All the employees are being paid as promised from the start.
I joined the company in Jan of 2006 and was being paid in time and as promised from day 1.
There was an RFE raised on my 140 filed with substitution with rgrds to Ability to Pay. The proferred wage mentioned in the Labour was 75K and my company had the ability to pay in 2002, 2003 and 2004 based on their financial documents except for the year 2005.
In 2005 the company started a new division and hired several people, basically they were restructuring their company for the future and there net or gross whatever income was in -ve, They spent a lot of money on training, hiring etc.., which are reflected in their financial documents.
They were back too good numbers in 2006 and 2007 while i was working for them. In 2006 my W-2 show salary less then the proferred wage in the labour and at that point of time the company nor myself had any idea that we would substitute this X labour for me, But the companies numbers were good to support the difference of amount in 2006.
In the year 2007, i had a good hike, but was still below the proferred wage but only by 3K, and again the company had enuf finances to support the difference of amount.
Starting of 2008, i got another good hike and am way above the proferred wage.
