$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$GOOD EVENING GC$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Deadline = April 30th, 2011
Goal = 5000 votes on survey (see I-485 filing w/o current PD thread) and momentum to continue with this campaign.The survey is a platform to gather and push for launching action items. Based on response by 04/30/2011 - IV will decide whether to even proceed with initiative or not.
Actions - 1) Vote on survey.
2)Email ivcoordinator@gmail.com with PD, ph#,email & subject "I485 filing impacted�,
3)Print/Circulate Fliers and spread FB, wiki link (see "support thread")
This is a supporting thread to the "Want to File I-485 without Current Priority Date? Gather here" thread started by pappu.
As suggested by pappu/starsun, this supporting thread provides impacted members with additional information and tools to help the initiative.
Visit Immigration Voice Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Employment_Based_Green_Card#Process_.28EB1.2C_EB2. 2C_and_EB3.29) - for overview of Employment Based - Green Card process
Visit I485 Filing w/o current PD Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Current_Grass-Roots_Initiative_-_I-485_Filing_without_Current_Priority_Date) - for overview of this initiative
As pappu stated in the first post of the above referenced thread - some of the ongoing efforts include finding how many IV members would get benefit from such a provision and get basic details such as username/Priority Date of impacted members. Future action items might include drafting documents and letters to support this provision. There maybe actions such as sending emails etc. However we would not be able to open a public action item unless we can have thousands of our members willing to participate in a grassroots action item. This survey intends to understand the needs of our membership for this provision and collect grassroots information.
The fact is we have a dedicated group of volunteers (and we need more) who have been trying their best to spread the message about this initiative so that a strong grass-roots support can be created leading up to launch of the public action items. So far we have around 1100 people who have responded. Based on quick calculations carried out using PERM data, it is estimated that there are at least 60K-70K EB applicants waiting to file I-485/EAD/AP (this is a very conservative estimate..the actual number could be much more). Grass-roots initiatives require time and patience and we request maximum number of impacted folks to participate actively.

What's going on here is that approx there are 500,000 people on H1B visas in this country.
If Anti-H1 crowd propose a bill to throw all of them out, people will laugh at them and ask them to get lost.
So what the anti-H1 crowd has done here is "Slow bleed" as described by admin. Get rid of 8000-10,000 H1Bs out of the country each month. That way, the impact will slow and it wont send any shockwaves. IF existing H1s go to renew their H1 and the new rules apply, half of them wont fit in the new rules of "You cannot do consulting". So they will have to go back.
These guys are trying to do what UK did to Indian and Chinese doctors. They want all of us to go back. Only difference between what UK did to doctors and what these guys want to do to us is that these guys are smarter and they are trying to get this done in slow motion. IF they take Tancredo like approach of "Everyone out, and shut the door", then it wont work.
They have learned from Tancredo's mistake and now have adoped this slow bleed strategy of getting rid of their competition.
If desi bodyshops are punished this way, then all of us will also be punished. This is not the right way to stop abuse. The right way to stop abuse is to allow more portability between jobs and retention of PDs, etc.
By making consulting totally illegal, they are going too far and the fallout will be felt by H1B employees also.
Basically, they want the 1990s back. They want to roam in job market with foriegn competition, where even high-school drop-outs can get jobs of $100,000 a year by writing 20 lines of code per week.
Man up you xenophobes. Face the competition and stop being whiny boys running to Grassley and Sessions every time you lose jobs. Get a job and get a life. Unemployment rate is 4.4 %. If you cant find jobs right now, dont blame H1B employees. Something is wrong with you.

Now that the House and Senate have adopted different versions of immigration legislation, textbook explanations of lawmaking suggest the bill's fate rests in the hands of a conference committee. Congress uses these temporary bicameral panels � which some call the "Third House" of Congress � to resolve differences in competing versions of legislation.
But lawmakers often find exceptions to textbook explanations and immigration reform provides a case in point. True, most predict contentious House-Senate negotiations on the issue. But "where" and "when" are key questions. Creation of a conference committee will be more an indication that a deal is done than a forum to find one. In other words, lawmakers may not even officially create a bicameral negotiating panel until they have found a clear path toward a workable compromise � a process that may take weeks of private, informal discussions before conferees ever formally meet.
Conference committees are not mandatory. They offer one way to resolve differences between chambers, but there is no requirement that lawmakers even use this procedure. According to Walter Oleszek at the CongressionalResearch Service, only 15 to 25 percent of all laws passed by Congress ever reach the conference-committee stage. Lawmakers normally resolve differences either by one house adopting the other's version or by "ping-ponging" measures back and forth until substantive disagreements are ironed out. Conference committees are never formed in either of those cases.
However, Mr. Oleszek also notes that most controversial bills that become law do go through the House-Senate conference process. Immigration definitely clears the divisiveness threshold. But sending a politically charged bill to a formal conference immediately and hoping differences get resolved there is not a tactic preferred by the GOP leadership.
When lawmakers do decide to form a formal conference committee, its procedures are exercised in congressional discretion with only a few set rules and precedents. The House and Senate each choose members drawn heavily from the committees that authored the legislation. In the Senate, the presiding officer appoints from a list developed by the chair and ranking member of the committee that passed the bill. In the House, the speaker appoints all conferees and sometimes draws in members of the leadership. Each house has one vote on issues under consideration in the conference; therefore there is a "House position" and a "Senate position" on any provision in disagreement. Each chamber develops positions based on a majority vote of conferees from that body.
Neither chamber is under any obligation to respond to a request for a conference. And sometimes the bulk of negotiations occur in a pre-conference informal setting. House leaders are averse to sending major legislation to a formal conference with the prospects of long, drawn-out deliberations. For one thing, after a bill goes to conference and there is no resolution in 20 calendar and 10 legislative days, any member of the House can offer non-binding motions on a daily basis, which often subjects the body to tedious, sometimes politically embarrassing votes that eat up valuable time.
Democrat obstructionism in the Senate may also stall efforts to convene a conference. Since losing the majority after the 2002 election, Democrats have made the historically routine process of going to conference (which is normally done through unanimous consent) a procedural jungle. On the immigration measure, Democrats insisted on the unusual step of a pre-agreed ratio of conferees (26 senators total � 14 Republicans and 12 Democrats) before entering into a unanimous consent agreement to finish the bill. Also, because the Senate bill contains a revenue provision, it is subject to a so-called "blue slip," which means it could be automatically rejected by the House. (The Origination Clause of the Constitution requires all revenue measures to begin in the House. A Senate bill containing revenue provisions is sent back with a resolution printed on blue paper, hence the name.) Democrats then objected earlier this week to efforts to attach the Senate immigration bill to a House-passed revenue bill, which would have fixed the problem.
And when it comes to national issues like immigration, the White House also becomes a big investor in this legislative real estate. Thus, the real "conference committee" on immigration reform will take place informally between the White House and a handful of congressional leaders. If these lawmakers see a compromise that can garner strong support among Republicans in the House and Senate, a formal conference will be appointed.
If this path can't be found, it's unlikely lawmakers will ever formally set foot into a conference committee to orchestrate a compromise � in public or private.

1) Fast-track GC process for Masters degree holders from US universities. This will be the least controversial, boost admissions (and money) flowing into universities, and clear up backlog in regular GC queue. Its a win-win and most senators, congressmen have voiced support for it already. We can get very good support from University lobbyists also (if they exist!!).

After doing a conference call this weekend, we think we should close this thread. There are not enough people for us to consider a large public campaign. However this does not mean IV is not and will not be working on this fix. This fix has been a very important fix for IV for several years and we have it in our legislative and admin fixes agenda. Those that came for the recent advocacy day event know that it is a key provision that relates to our quality of life concern. Every other legislative fix we are trying is also tied to I485 filing. We advocated for this fix in our just concluded advocacy days and will continue to do so in every opportunity we get. The purpose of this thread was misunderstood and people thought IV will only work on this fix if there are 5000 votes.
We were at the time of starting this thread considering a possibility of launching a campaign like http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum16-iv-agenda-and-legislative-updates/17157-deadline-march-1st-target-25000-letters-can-we-make-it-happen.html when the timing was right.
In past similar IV campiagns, some people even got responses like http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum16-iv-agenda-and-legislative-updates/18067-admin-fix-letter-response-from-cis-wh.html
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum16-iv-agenda-and-legislative-updates/18200-letter-from-uscis-after-sending-letter-to-president.html
For a campaign like that to succeed the number has to be way higher than what we achieved in 2008. Again just writing letters will not do anything. You need a big organization like IV behind it where we take all these letters with us for the meeting. We also need a strong ongoing advocacy effort in DC though lobbying.
Another point to be noted for all people wanting to file I485 is not to think narrowly about your own I485 application. It will be counter productive to your own cause and the overall effort we are trying to do. This also applies to people who have filed I485 and do not wish others to be able to file I485 because their own application might be delayed or some other reasons ( Here is one past example . Many posts on this thread and many such divisive threads are deleted because they were too offensive but you will get an idea http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum14-members-forum/2714-why-are-we-suddenly-obsessed-with-uscis-efficiency.html ) . We are going to adopt a zero tolerance policy to such people when we come across. People who think narrowly about their own I485 application and fail to understand the full picture of the EB backlog should not be part of this effort. It is better to not respond to such people and lose such people from this effort rather than trying to be all inclusive. We cannot waste our time to either keep such people happy or fight with them. If there are any such narrow minded people for or against this fix, they are free to cancel their recurring contributions and find their own ways to get their I485 fix done or oppose IV's I485 fix effort.
For people who have voted and want to work on this fix, please contact the leaders of this initiative ashwin_27 and starsun. There is a google group where most active members share their views. The entry to the google group is restricted and the leaders will have to speak to each interested person before permitting access. There will also be public action items posted in the coming weeks for everyone that has voted. These action items will also help you to raise awareness of this issue. We are closing this poll at this time so that there is no misunderstanding and people who have voted understand that there is more to getting this fix done than just voting and going away or complaining that nothing is happening.
The thread will be closed in a day or two.
We were at the time of starting this thread considering a possibility of launching a campaign like http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum16-iv-agenda-and-legislative-updates/17157-deadline-march-1st-target-25000-letters-can-we-make-it-happen.html when the timing was right.
In past similar IV campiagns, some people even got responses like http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum16-iv-agenda-and-legislative-updates/18067-admin-fix-letter-response-from-cis-wh.html
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum16-iv-agenda-and-legislative-updates/18200-letter-from-uscis-after-sending-letter-to-president.html
For a campaign like that to succeed the number has to be way higher than what we achieved in 2008. Again just writing letters will not do anything. You need a big organization like IV behind it where we take all these letters with us for the meeting. We also need a strong ongoing advocacy effort in DC though lobbying.
Another point to be noted for all people wanting to file I485 is not to think narrowly about your own I485 application. It will be counter productive to your own cause and the overall effort we are trying to do. This also applies to people who have filed I485 and do not wish others to be able to file I485 because their own application might be delayed or some other reasons ( Here is one past example . Many posts on this thread and many such divisive threads are deleted because they were too offensive but you will get an idea http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum14-members-forum/2714-why-are-we-suddenly-obsessed-with-uscis-efficiency.html ) . We are going to adopt a zero tolerance policy to such people when we come across. People who think narrowly about their own I485 application and fail to understand the full picture of the EB backlog should not be part of this effort. It is better to not respond to such people and lose such people from this effort rather than trying to be all inclusive. We cannot waste our time to either keep such people happy or fight with them. If there are any such narrow minded people for or against this fix, they are free to cancel their recurring contributions and find their own ways to get their I485 fix done or oppose IV's I485 fix effort.

I agree with the above and actually in someways this bulletin was perfect ..instead of giving false hopes it has woken up those who were dreaming (including me) that something good will happen in july bulletin. so once again my message --IV needs to announce a new campaign
---------------
IV core needs to come up with new campaign too. if not now, then say 3 months from now. it definitely needs to come up with something ..either to highlight our problems / contributions or for something like recapture.
without meaningful campaigns, increasing memberships or donations is an illusion !!!

Members from the mid western states - your participation is crucial in the advocacy efforts.
OH, IN, IL, TN, KY, MO, AR, KS, OK
It is very difficult to get appointments from legislative offices if no one from their constituency will be attending the meeting.
The DC Advocacy effort is for YOUR green card. Please take the time to talk to your employers now and get the required 2 days off to participate in the event.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$GOOD MORNING GC$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Deadline = April 30th, 2011
Goal = 5000 votes on survey (see I-485 filing w/o current PD thread) and momentum to continue with this campaign.The survey is a platform to gather and push for launching action items. Based on response by 04/30/2011 - IV will decide whether to even proceed with initiative or not.
Actions - 1) Vote on survey.
2)Email ivcoordinator@gmail.com with PD, ph#,email & subject "I485 filing impacted�,
3)Print/Circulate Fliers and spread FB, wiki link (see "support thread")
This is a supporting thread to the "Want to File I-485 without Current Priority Date? Gather here" thread started by pappu.
As suggested by pappu/starsun, this supporting thread provides impacted members with additional information and tools to help the initiative.
Visit Immigration Voice Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Employment_Based_Green_Card#Process_.28EB1.2C_EB2. 2C_and_EB3.29) - for overview of Employment Based - Green Card process
Visit I485 Filing w/o current PD Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Current_Grass-Roots_Initiative_-_I-485_Filing_without_Current_Priority_Date) - for overview of this initiative
As pappu stated in the first post of the above referenced thread - some of the ongoing efforts include finding how many IV members would get benefit from such a provision and get basic details such as username/Priority Date of impacted members. Future action items might include drafting documents and letters to support this provision. There maybe actions such as sending emails etc. However we would not be able to open a public action item unless we can have thousands of our members willing to participate in a grassroots action item. This survey intends to understand the needs of our membership for this provision and collect grassroots information.
The fact is we have a dedicated group of volunteers (and we need more) who have been trying their best to spread the message about this initiative so that a strong grass-roots support can be created leading up to launch of the public action items. So far we have around 1100 people who have responded. Based on quick calculations carried out using PERM data, it is estimated that there are at least 60K-70K EB applicants waiting to file I-485/EAD/AP (this is a very conservative estimate..the actual number could be much more). Grass-roots initiatives require time and patience and we request maximum number of impacted folks to participate actively.

1) Vote on the poll/survey created by Pappu.
