I read that most would-be immigrants are differentiating themselves as an 'illigal' or a 'legal' immigrant. People are forgetting that legal or illegal both are immigrant and want to have a better life for themselves or for their family compare to what their own country have to offer to them. Where is the difference - look deep into your heart - difference is one has some additional pieces of papers while other does not. Stop differentiating! Start uniting and fight for the justice.
I have not done my research on the "Dream act" and thus would refrain from speaking on it (I am all for sparing the kids from hardship though)...but I take strong exception to your comment above. I pride myself to be a legal immigrant...and frankly any person who flaunts the law of the land, disgusts me.
I have spent thousands of dollars and hours to maintain my legal documents that you so casually refer to as "pieces of paper". I have sacrificed my career to a certain extent for those "pieces of paper". I have put my married life on peril for those "pieces of paper". But I am proud of it, 'coz those pieces of paper differentiate me from a Criminal.
The only reason I joined IV was that this is for LEGAL immigrants and for folks who have followed the law, however discriminating it might seem.
Again this comment is not on the merits of the dream act, but on the comments you made. Remember Immigrating to US is not your/my right.

I believe Mbhai did a dis-service by negating good advice. What is the guarantee that the 2nd women that this guy marries will not ask for divorce? The best thing he can do is find a way to reconcile, unless there is marital infidility.
I believe "snathan" story was inspiring and addressed the true problem of that individual and every indivudual's life. Trust me, when you all get your GC's ...it will be these things that will matter to all of you, rather than anything else.
I felt the same. Anyway it is all Fate.

Do you have 10+3 (Diploma)+1 or 10+2+3(Diploma)+1. If the second case, is 10+2 a requirement for enrolling in to the diploma ?
a 3 year diploma after 10th standard is not a bachelor degree. The US bachelor degree has 16 years of education.
How is the equivalency justified in the evaluation ?

In my opinion, having the right skills and qualifications is one's security, and that�s what I have always banked on while moving so forward on a H1.
I agree with you on this part. Many people became complacent after finding a good job and lost their edge. This applies to even GC holders also.
On the other hand, I find it extremely difficult to penetrate the upper levels of jobs with just H-1B alone. Horizontal growth does not fascinate me any more. GC is the key for upward mobility.

This appeared in todays Business Standard Newspaper in India. Atleast, the issue came up for discussion.
Here it is.
--------
The United States today indicated that it was willing to consider setting up of a joint technical working group to address the issues coming in the way of finalising a totalisation agreement with India.
New Delhi, on its part, has made it clear that it is not agreeable to the US stance of linking the requirement for a social security net as a precursor to finalising the agreement. India also made clear that it was adopting a calibrated approach to further opening up of the retail and financial services sector.
Indians working in the US have to mandatorily contribute to social security benefits but are unable to repatriate the same when they leave the US, in the absence of a totalisation agreement between the two countries.
The issue was discussed at a meeting of US Under Secretary for International Trade Franklin Lavin and Commerce Secretary G K Pillai in the capital. Commerce ministry officials said the Indian side pointed out that New Delhi had signed totalisation agreements with countries like Belgium and France, which had not set any pre-conditions.
“It was pointed out that India, which is a developing country, effectively gives a grant of $500 million to the US in the absence of a totalisation agreement. The US has indicated that it will soon have a video conferencing on the matter with senior Indian officials,” an official said.
In response to the US demand for further opening up of the financial services sector, the commerce ministry pointed out that India was adopting a calibrated approach on the matter.
“It was pointed out that the Reserve Bank of India has finalised a road map for the gradual opening up of the sector by 2008,” an official said, adding that New Delhi raised the issue of absence of a level-playing field for financial institutions in the US.
“A foreign bank wanting to open more branches in India only needs to obtain the permission of the Reserve bank of India. However, an Indian bank wanting to open up branches in the US has to go through the American federal system and then a state regulatory system,” an official said.
Banks like State Bank of India and ICICI have long pending applications for opening more branches in the US.
India also raised the issue of extending protection to its traditional knowledge under the patent regime in the US.
Here it is.

Good read here:
Risk of GC Rescission for Failure to Notify Change of Job / Employer!
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_risres.html
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_apprea.html
"The particular case has been issued a NOIR on the basis that the employer revoked the I-140 petition and there was no information on record indicating a qualifying position under AC21."
That's the whole point. If you know that petitioning employer will not withdraw I-140, there is no need to notify the USCIS about the job change. Obviously it's in someone's best interest to notify the USCIS of invoking AC21 if there is a risk of I-140 withdrawal.
And at the end, the GC was not rescinded even though the person did not notify the USCIS about AC21:
"After about eight months of persistent follow-up on our part with the various federal agencies and AILA, we received a favorable decision for our client. It stated that, upon further consideration, the grounds for the rescission did not apply and that, after a complete review of the record of proceeding, the original approval of the Adjustment of Status Application was reaffirmed."

I second your opinion. I went to Kinkos for quality of photos. I dont have maline thought for other places wherever people had visited or thought to visiting in future. I had taken photos in 2002 from Kinkos and they were using Polaroid camera those days. I sent those photos for H1B Visa stamping at State Department in DC. It worked that time and I liked Sears as well for their quality work. By the way I took lots of photos in 2004 from Sears for Marriage proposals. Yeah I got marry last year because I sent Good quality photo to my in-law family. You see you get what you pay for..Guys as "LogicLife" says you get priceless GC while you dont want to pay couple of extra bucks....Poor you...
Thanks
Hi
We got our photos from SEARS . It is expensive(36$ for 8 photos ,(no option of ordering just 6 photos) )but quality is great !!!!
tell them you need photo for immigration documentation purpose , they are aware of USCIS requirement.
so if u care about quality go to SEARS ,if u don't care about quality go to CVS
Thanks

Yes it is just like someone asking labor sub to be allowed again in admin fixes so that they can get a sustitute labor and cut in line.
I don't think it is the CP filers' fault. They are not cutting in line. It is the USCIS who is sitting on their ass on these 485s while the state dept processes the CP files at the normal pace. It should have been the state dept who should have processed the I-485 and CP (just like how they used to do the H/L visa revalidation inside U.S 4 years ago) and we would not have this issue or the visa bulletin fiasco.
It is a gamble to go with CP just like any other application in this GC mess. I know of guys who got their green card in 18 months while I spent 5.5 years in labor dept alone. But, that does not warrant chastising of the CP filers or anybody else for the Government's ineffiency (except in the case of labor sub).
But, I agree that the requests by the original poster should not be a part of IV's letter campaign.

I do have copy of labor approval but I donot have copy of job description that they filed for labor. I also have copy of 140 approval.
I don't think I can get letters from HR (there are couple of people who handles everything from getting timesheets to posting payslips) as they very loyal to my employer.
Then I guess my only options are
- give it a try to file through another attorney with paystubs and without employer letter.
- forget about $5000 and proceed.

I cannot imagine how educated illiterate IV members are. You think voting on some site will get the bill passed? I agree with Fresheb2 that this is a waste of time. You guys are only promoting some new site. This site will capture your email addresses and send you marketing material. If you read about the site owners, they are commerical companies and they seek to make profit from this site. Do not be fooled that someone will send your bogus votes to congress and the bill will be passed. The site only aims at generating awareness among US citizens about congress and bill. They probably got some grant or decided to make money off this idea and started this website.
How about I also start a website and create voting on it and ask everyone to vote. Will it help a bill pass?

Anyone invoking AC21 with unapproved I-140?
If you try to use AC21 without an approved I-140 your employer can withdraw the I-140 petition ( since it is not approved yet ) . So best wait a few months until it is approved and then merrily go the AC21 way

I think u r in a trap here. I recently talked to a HR of a desi company and he clearly told me his boss does not want to file for 485 for all eligible applicants and is working on strategies to fool his employees into prolonging things till dates retrogress.
U can choose ur lawyer, u don't have to let employer know u applying for 485 at all. Do not link ur lawyer and employer for any reason. Keep them both away. U already have 140 approved and u have nothing to lose.
Don't fall into ur employer - lawyer trap
Sats123, Chanduv23 is correct, also reading that with the paystubs you can avoid the employer letter saying that you work in such position and for such salary, finding out what position they used to file your labor (did you find it in the database on my previous post) and considering that you are about to get ripped off, it would be advisable that you go through that lawyer that someone was saying charges 1000 to file your papers and 500 for your spouse;
Did you get the medicals? I know it takes time now to get an appointment, and if you want to file the I-485 on your own, please ask if you have questions, I think you can get out of this trap and before the immigration rates hike on July 30th.
