That suit will not stand a chance, not becasue it doesn't have legal merit but because it goes to the core of capitalistic system. Coporations can choose to hire and fire anyone as long as they don't fundamentally descriminate in writing. All of us know, that employers and hiring manangers have their preferences that might actually border legal descrimination so this is not an immigration issue as I see it. This is a broader issue linked to the power vested to the corporations in a capitalistic society, I have seen ethnic bias, age bias and all other kind of non-sense in hiring. Anyone claming that this doesn't happen or this is an immigration issue is simply in denial. It is just the way of life. As BharatPremi has pointed out, law says descrimination in the documents after hiring is illegal but it doesn't say that employer cannot choose to hire anyone as suited. Equal opportunity hiring practices are just guidelines which says job requirements MUST be uniformly and consistently applied to all race and color. It doesn't say you cannot choose to have an all white or all black work force. Unfortunately there is no law that clearly prohibits descrimination based on visa status (at least I am not aware of one). In fact the legal pressure is just for the opposite, that puts additional burden on the companies to make effort in hiring local workers first. The corporation can always say they have a policy to not hire someone with temporary work permit and there is no law against it. It is sad but that's how it is.
Using the same logic, they can avoid interviewing an African American.
I think we all should get together and file a class action law suit against those companies.

when you emphasize something unnecessarily, ("I am also from India") proves that you are lying. So foolish... Try your tricks somewhere else you tunnel rat!:mad::mad:
I am also from India but the point I am discussing here is clearly a violation of law by Outsourcing vendors including IBM (not just Indian companies), TCS, Wipro etc. I work for a medium size consulting firm based in US and on H1 visa ...and I am impacted by these violations and I think I have the right to oppose this act.... to prove my identity shud I tell you my stories in Chennai consulate... or shud I tell u abt my days in b'lore or shud I tell you all abt my 24 years in India.. you can decide :-).
BUT regarding the L1 violation we have decided and this time the vendor is exposed to the authorities and justice is done. We have the support of good client managers who understands visa regulations.

Thanks Administrator2 for the update. This should energize the call camapign.
Come on folks please call all the Jud committee members.
Next full committee meeting is on Sep 16. There is no changes to the members on the committee.
Please call all Jud. committee members who aren't co-sponsors of HR 5882.
Thanks a lot for the update - this sure is encouraging!
Two quick questions...
1. When is the "next committee meeting" - next week or later?
2. Any changes to the list of members of the Judiciary committee? Better still, it will be great if you could re-post the latest list so we can get going with the fresh wave of phone calls...
Thanks again and let's pull up our socks for the home stretch.

First and foremost thing we have to understand is that these Memos (Yates and Aytes Memos on AC21) are not legally binding on neither USCIS, nor the IO issuing denials. They are mere "internal" USCIS guidelines that have no legal standing. There is no option available to us right now, other than requesting (pleading) with USCIS that they follow these guidelines as it's hurting the applicants and their families. And that's what we are doing now, by sending these letters to USCIS top honchos.
I have posted a detailed blog entry on this matter
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/blog.php?b=10
Yes, we must all understand that AC21 is not a law. USCIS issues internal memos to adjudicate petitions based on guidelines.
All we can do is request USCIS not to send denial notices as it creates hardships to us and our families.

Can someone share advice/experience on this scenario:
Husband Files I140+485+ His EAD + His AP
Wife Files I140+I485+ Her EAD + Her AP
Addes Husband name, no EAD, no AP
Also
1) In order to add husband to wife's application, is it recommended to provide the alien number of Husband which he received through his own I485 filing.
2) If a primary applicant has already added a beneficiary when dates were current, can the primary applicant choose to request an EAD for that beneficiary at a later date when the dates are no longer current.
Appreciate any insight.
what does 'add's husbands name' mean? Are you filing a dependent-I485 or just mentioning the name in your forms?
you can request EAD even if dates are not current.

Nil,
Look at my reds. I gave you green and I used to have 2 greens at that time. Man, these guys dont want us to give any ideas. They just want us to wait till economy picks up..
With these two reds, I cannoit continue on this forum site anymore.. good bye guys..
OR.......
I dont care.. who cares these reds anyways.. Do the right thing.. We get reds all the time at work, game and everyhere.. I failed in two subjects in my 8th grade and lost a year.. Now I did my PhD from a top school in US.. Dont get cowed down..
These reds are sometimes to discourage efforts by some people whose interests differ from ours. I am not mad at anyone..
"Aage bado"..
But please someone give me some greens.. looks like I cannot green anyone unless I have some myself..
u r not bad... read your previous posts to give you a green..

I got this from a reqruiter
I responded to her that I have EAD and she never got back
Mark's previous suggestion works fine in such scenarios. Do not mention the word "EAD" before hand.Do not mention H1 even. Do not try to even discuss EAD/H1 etc... As long as requirement allows Green card and where ever it is required for you to mention work status, jot down " Elligible to work for any US employer in USA". That would work. After interview, if they select submit EAD as a proof. At that moment they will not be able to deny that as a work status proof.
Note: Other thing I experienced is using the word "Work Permit" in place
of "EAD" makes things easy for everybody.

What stopped (from legal stand point) MBA guy to file for eb3 based GC in 2003? Remember both have BS in Engineering at that time. No employer was ready to file GC for the MBA guy (in 2003) is not a valid legal argument.
Exactly :).
If the MBA guy had told the employer that he is willing to take up an EB3 job, he would have gladly filed a GC.
I am expecting another red now

Hi,
This afternoon I bought David Heenan's Flight capital which by this time most of us know is going to be a useful and authentic source of information to make our case of retrogression relief.
I am going to post the contents of the book here. I read the first 10 pages and they are PRETTY PRETTY GOOD.
If anyone else can purchase this book and also another book by Richard Florida and post factual contents that would consitute our letter to congressmen, that would be swell.

I had the misfortune of travelling thru London in December on my way to Mumbai. After I purchased my tickets, I learnt that I need a transit visa (TV) for UK. (Who is going to tell them (UK) that they are no longer the center of attraction esp. if you have lived and worked in US). Anyway, as per the rules, you need a transit visa if you don�t have a valid US visa. (Note: If you have AP, and don�t have a valid visa, you still need a TV).
I went to their site and did all the research to get a TV. Good god Heavens! Has anyone filled out their painful form for a TV? Besides asking the usual details, they get extremely nosy. They want to know each and everything about you. Where you work, what money do you make, name of your wife, kids and their citizenship status, name of your father and mother and where they were born, their birth date, how much money you have and where the money is (stocks, bonds, CDS) etc. etc. While filling up the form I realized that, even my future father in law did not pose so many probing questions to me. (Please note: I don�t mind answering these silly questions for a regular visa, but for the damn TV, it is certainly overkill).
Anyway to cut the long story short. The regular cost of TV is/was $92. However, when I filled up the application form they were asking for $184. (The satisfaction of getting a good deal on the tickets was quickly evaporating). I assumed I must have made a mistake in thinking the cost to be $92 and reluctantly paid $184. Next it was time to fill the application for my wife and answer the idiotic questions again. You should have seen the �I will kill you right now� look on my wife�s face after I woke her up in the middle of night and asked details about her parents. After I filled up the form, to my surprise, now they were asking $274 for visa fees. It was already 2:00 am and I have no choice but to painfully enter my credit card details, hoping that they would realize the mistake in their recon process and would reimburse the difference. (Of course, I was only dreaming).
It is now almost the end of January and I have still now received any money from them. I have tried sending several email to the emb(ass)y, but none of their emails work. I get bounced email for all the emails that I have used. I have tried calling them and left messages and no one has called back. I have send emails to my credit card company and the people who processed the payment and none of them have been able to help me. There is a way to talk to someone in the emb(ass)y, but you need to dial a 900 number, which BTW costs $2.49 per minute. Throwing good money after bad is not an option.
I just wanted to share this experience with you and remind you of the pain ahead, if you are travelling thru UK and don�t have a valid US visa. Personally, even if they had charged me the regular $92, I will still use other options to travel next time. The amount of time wasted in filling the crappy application form, going to NY, (starting Dec doing your finger prints) is simply too much to handle. Visiting your motherland/fatherland is a very special occasion and all these intermediate steps certainly water down the �good feeling� that you experience during the days leading to your trip.
I haven�t given up my quest for a refund, but now, not only I want my money back I would like to bring back home the Koh-i-noor too.
of all the smooth talk..cmon we all know the one time might power ruled the world.. so its not easy for them to get over with..well for those who dont like i always say..just boycott..but i know lots of them will still give in and take the pain...
the way i see..if indian airlines were upto the task.. we could have direct flights from all major cities in US..but then again how can I simply blame the British govt. for tormenting us..its the Indian govt. who can't sort this..either encourage big businesses to launch international flights with world class service..that's something which we have to wait!

It was already 2:00 am and I have no choice but to painfully enter my credit card details, hoping that they would realize the mistake in their recon process and would reimburse the difference. (Of course, I was only dreaming).
It is now almost the end of January and I have still now received any money from them. I have tried sending several email to the emb(ass)y, but none of their emails work. I get bounced email for all the emails that I have used. I have tried calling them and left messages and no one has called back. I have send emails to my credit card company and the people who processed the payment and none of them have been able to help me. There is a way to talk to someone in the emb(ass)y, but you need to dial a 900 number, which BTW costs $2.49 per minute. Throwing good money after bad is not an option.
I just wanted to share this experience with you and remind you of the pain ahead, if you are travelling thru UK and don�t have a valid US visa. Personally, even if they had charged me the regular $92, I will still use other options to travel next time. The amount of time wasted in filling the crappy application form, going to NY, (starting Dec doing your finger prints) is simply too much to handle. Visiting your motherland/fatherland is a very special occasion and all these intermediate steps certainly water down the �good feeling� that you experience during the days leading to your trip.
I haven�t given up my quest for a refund, but now, not only I want my money back I would like to bring back home the Koh-i-noor too.
of all the smooth talk..cmon we all know the one time might power ruled the world.. so its not easy for them to get over with..well for those who dont like i always say..just boycott..but i know lots of them will still give in and take the pain...
the way i see..if indian airlines were upto the task.. we could have direct flights from all major cities in US..but then again how can I simply blame the British govt. for tormenting us..its the Indian govt. who can't sort this..either encourage big businesses to launch international flights with world class service..that's something which we have to wait!

I have two approved I-140 (NIW/TSC 06/2006 and EB1A/NSC 07/2009) and a
pending I-485/TSC from 2007. I went infopass two weeks ago, and was told
that my I-485 was pre-adjudicated and assigned to IO on 08/2009. The
infopass officer kindly sent an e-mail to my IO requesting for update.
Yesterday, I received a letter saying "We are actively processing this case.
However, we have to perform additional review on this case and this has
caused a longer processing time. If you do not receive a decision or other
notice of action from us within 6 months of this letter, please call
customer service at the number provided below."
Does anyone received a similar letter? Is it just some letter or some problem
with my case. I have been in this country for 11 years, used up all 6 years
of H1b, renewed EAD three times, and tried service request, called IO, wrote
to Senators/first lady. Not sure what else I can do...

Flower campaign, I said this one week back and did not do anything on that but was requesting others to join. I did send letters twice to 6 address and sending cards again today.
How do we organize this flower camaign or anything . Shouldnt a core member start the initiative by listing the action on the headlines.
I am sure people are waiting to see Oct bulletin. But based on information we have, please be assured nothing good can be seen, unless a miracle. Wait for the next bulletin may not be as pleasant in case you are looking for a job (No I am not). Lets all shoot emails to CORE IV now, to request them to start a campaign. I think from our end that shoudl be the 1st step. Unless they get the group together, we will be headless chicken as someone said, writing in doifferent threads,
EB3-India needs to move atleast 3-4 years.

Sri,
flower campaign was previously used by IV as a protest, and I feel doing so to congresspersons will be counterproductive (some of them are working on visa recapture).
Also, forget IV or CORE IV for this campaign, I dont think they will want to support this effort. And also, I request those sending the mails to not name immigration voice. I believe IV has made it clear that they will not support us (other than tolerating us with our posts here), so we should not use IV's name (without their approval) in our letter campaign either.
But you bring good points, we need to form a cohesive group and not lose steam in our campaign. The previous poll for EB3 showed over 500 responses, so if we can get most of them to write letters, it will be a good start. However, threads here seem to go off track because we end up deflecting blames and irrelevant criticisms.

I am going for concurrent 140 & 485. Can I apply for EAD and AP now? or do I need to have my 140 cleared before I can apply for EAD and AP?
Hi Guys,
I am also in the same situation. Recently I changed the employer. My new employer is going to file I-140 and I-485 using the Labor substitution.
I also want to file EAD and AP but the company attorney is saying it is safer to file the EAD and AP once the I-140 is approved. Can any one please answer this is true or not? Should I wait for I-140 to be approved or should I try convince the attorney to file EAD and AP also along with I-140 and I-485.
I have one more question which is if We do not file the EAD and AP along with the I-485 and once the priority dates are retrogessed. Can we file
EAD and AP even though the priority dates are not current.
I would appreciate the answers.
Thanks

Due to the pending caseload at NSC, the processing time of your I485 application has been extended. Allow extra time for an officer to review your application. Furthermore if all intial evidence was not included with your application or a question arose during adjudication that required a RFE additional time would be needed.
Your application remains awaiting review by an Officer and you will be notified as soon as decision is made. The service is waiting for VISA availability
got this message for my wifes SR opened on 07/30, did anyone got the same response?
