IVians,
Need help on the following the questions.
Present status: Spouse (Wife) of a H1B holder (Husband) currently working on H1B.
1. If wife resigns (reason being pregnant and can�t work, FMLA is not an option) would she immediately loose her status as H1B? Would her status be H4?
2. Presently wife has SSN, bank account, credit card etc., so what would happen to those if she falls back to H4?
3. If she wants to get back to a separate similar job, would she be subject to new H1B quota for which she has to wait till 10/2009 � 11/2009 or her new H1B be a case of transfer?
Please share your experience/knowledge. Thanks.

Honestly I cannot see much wrong with Congressman Pences point of view.
Unless you are an illegal who is looking for a free ride on the US immigration laws, you have got to consider it fair. Especially if it is combined with some sort of expansion of legal immigration, a fair minded individual cannot really quarrel with it.
Only problem is that it will cause those coming after a few years legally to get caught up in a Tsunami of applications and probably will be unfair to them, but ATLEAST they would be aware of what they are up against and will choose to come KNOWING that.
Immigration to the US is not a right and many of us are suffering a lot to play by the rules so our children have a bright future. Our talents are being utilised at less than their full capacity to serve a bigger purpose in this land. We are waiting patiently. Someone who cut in line should not be given rights and priviledges that we have suffered so much to get by doing the right and honorable thing.
According to this new plan the illegals will learn to know that a green card is a LONG PAINSTAKINGLY FRUSTRATING process just like all of us have learnt.
I am happy that despite their breaking the law they have a chance to atone for their mistake and still EVENTUALLY get the green card, perhaps when they are old and grey but eventually. Hey I have sprouted many grey hair in this endeavour myself!
I think this is fair and balanced and just might be able to put this CIR beyond the goalline. God knows the current legal immigration system needs some reform.

We do not have a set date for ending registrations. We are planning on accepting registrations all year long for Team IV. However we recommend people signing up sooner than later. Here is why I say that. The DC and Houston events have a cap on the number of participants and the sooner we sign up the better are our chances of getting a spot to participate in the event. Remember you do not have to run the entire 10 miles or entire half marathon. you can walk, run a few miles, walk the rest etc. I am working towards running the entire 13.1 miles in Houston but I will be happy even if I run half and walk the other half.
The second reason is fund raising. I have a fundraising goal of 5$00 this year ans starting out early will give me a higher probablity of meeting my goal or exceeding it. I am going to be writing letters to my friends/ family to contribute towards IV as early as next week. I will see if I can raise atleast 150 to 200$ by doing that. I am going to organize a summer BBQ and have a cover charge or put a donation box at the BBQ. I will see how much I can raise doing that. My third event will be around November. I was planning on partnering with some friends and baking some pie's, puff pastry's, Cookies, kebobs and selling them at a local farmers maket on a saturday. Hopefully I will raise more than $500 doing all these. This should be a fun filled year for me.
Depending on how my training goes, I should know in 3 months if I am capable of doing the half marathon in 2009. When does the registration end?

Hi I am in process of filing 2nd PERM EB2 next month, my attroney says if the new position and job req is different then I should be fine(which is different than my previous Eb3 with 140 approved, Other Contries). But during my research I found some of the people are saying if 2nd PERM is file for Same employee , diff postion with same employer , it will hang at DOL for ever and I also found below posting only on Zhang & Associate:
DOL�s Rules about Multiple PERM Filings for the Same Person
About the PERM multiple filings, the DOL recently confirmed that if an employer has an APPROVED PERM application and files a second PERM for the same employee and a different occupation, the DOL will issue an audit requesting the return of the first application or an explanation of why there is a second application being filed and the first application can not be returned. The DOL is working on providing an FAQ which outlines acceptable situations where they will approve a subsequent PERM application.
The DOL also stated that if an employer has an APPROVED PERM application and files a second PERM for the same employee and the same occupation that the case will be auto denied. The DOL acknowledged that this poses a problem because there are valid reasons (e.g. change in worksite location) for filing a subsequent case and is working on this situation. In the meantime, the employer must either decide to withdraw the first case before filing the second case or file a motion to reconsider on the second case if it is denied explaining why it couldn�t withdraw the first case.

so i am curious why did you wait that long knowing that EB3 train is a goods train w/o engine. You r pretty close now to your GC, however if 3 yrs back or so you had ported it to EB2, you wud had been greened way back.
At that time, I was working for a multi billion dollar company where over a million people are employed. The HR department was not ready to serve any individual cases. Moreover the job prospectus were not great there at that time. It was always on the limbo. In fact, I did process another EB2 case in 2006. I got the I-140 Approval on that after the first one. And my employer's Immigration Department did not agree for a switch even after I pleaded to them. It was really hard luck. I spent over 18000.00 dollars to get that EB2 one which went down the drain. What to do? Its just fate.

Subject: Update on July Visa Availability
We are hearing from multiple sources that, on Monday or Tuesday of next week, State Department plans to issue a revised Visa Bulletin for July 2007.
This revised Bulletin would retrogress some or all of the employment-based
categories, very likely to the point of unavailable.
"multiple sources".....sounds classic rumor to me.
Reports from AILA
members about unusual levels and types of activities by USCIS indicate a
particular push to adjudicate employment-based adjustments currently in the
pipeline so as to exhaust visa numbers for fiscal year 2007.
I've read this statement several times...how does this indicate that there will be retrogression??? Also one unusual acitivity of USCIS has been to suspend premium processing of I-140 for the month of July. That to me suggests that they are preparing for the deluge of I-485s.
This follows the actions of USCIS in June, when it began rejecting EB-3 "
Other Worker" adjustment applications even though the Visa Bulletin showed
an October 2001 cut-off date, on the basis that the "Other Worker" numbers
for the year had been exhausted.
Again...aren't the mechanics, numbers allotted to this other worker category different from EB-2,3?:rolleyes:

What about someone who's applied five or six years ago, but his green card is still awaiting "security check", while a friend of him, who's applied at the same time has already gotten it a couple of years ago!
And, only because your name is similar to SOMEONE from SOMEWHERE who's done SOMETHING you know NOTHING about! And worst of all, you don't know when is that all going to end!
Where's the fairness in this game?

Nice one!
Hi folks, just as predicted, my email thread to select contacts resulted in one outright racist response. i dont want this group to get distracted or distressed if you too get such responses. take a look at the original note below and my response. remain brave. remain strong. this is a LEGAL immigration process in the US economic interest too.
hopefully people will begin to realize that anti-legal-immigration is just a facade for deep rooted racism.
Best.
A SELF AVOWED RACIST RESPONSE from A PERSONAL CONTACT
I have to let you know that not only will I not support this bill, but I am vehemently against the legal immigration of workers that are originally brought here to usurp positions that would have otherwise been held by skilled Americans. I agree that this is a racist and exclusionary position, but I also know many people who can no longer get work at the level they deserve due to the displacement they have experienced as a result of this foreign worker influx.
Please remove me from any future posts regarding this or related issues.
MY RESPONSE
i know how the native americans must have felt when the pilgrims landed... oh that darned foreign influx.
i will not dignify your self avowed racism with the erudition of economics, capitalism, innovation, globalization, human rights or the rich history of the united states as a melting pot of cultures ... all of which are underpinning factors that are in the long term US economic interests in high skilled LEGAL immigration. of course, these tend to be conveniently ignored on the altar of superficial sentiment, myopic protectionism and deep-rooted xenophobia.
it would be best that we not be on each others' personal contacts or have any future interaction at all.

Susie, I can say quite strongly that IV's agenda is quite officially
"H1B quota is not an issue that we wish to take any sides on".
We are trying to reduce the backlogs as a primary goal.
The main aim is to reduce the backlogs which will also reduce the age out problem, but not fix for those already aged out. Believe me, even if this was the only issue on the agenda, it is hard enough to get this done.
If we don't fix the backlogs then age out will be irrelevant. Let's imagine that H1B quota is increased, and EB3 ROW never becomes current because of more H1B ROW newbies. Then EB3 India will never get any spill over. In this case new India EB3 applications could easily have a 25 year wait, by which time the primary petitioner will have retired invalidating the whole application. Thus you can see that increasing H1B quota works against us (although the official position is no position).
I am considering computer modeling this, because I think that the a 25 year wait is very possible with the current scheme (making age out easier to push maybe).
If there is an opportunity to provide ago out protection without risking the main aim then I think that it will be taken. First we need a seat at the negotiating table.
Until we get a seat at the table we have the trade off between raising age out complicates things, and raising age out keeps it personal. There has been some debate over the, I think that the professionals recommend "keep it simple".
My position on this is to raise the age out and other family issues like US citizen children being forced to leave because their parents are. But only raise it with those law makers it will clearly be received well with, and not be a distraction.
There are other issues worthy of targeting, but they too complicate things, and risk us not getting a seat at the table. For example banning consulting. This could force many to leave, including their children, through not fault of their own. I think that consulting should at very least be grandfathered, and have some other exceptions. But again pushing that would be a distraction.
As I said, if we get a seat at the table, this issue has a chance.
We are currently working on getting that seat.
Thanks for your post, support and understanding as you know many H1B children still age out as do many other children who entered the us legally.
I am so passionate about this issue if iv decide to do something I would help in any way I could

Till early part of 2004 or latter part of 2003, most of the Indians applied EB3 very few applied EB2. After 2004, it was reverse. I doubt any one appled EB3 in 2005 0r 2006.
If EB3 stays continously in 2001 and EB2 in 2004 (there is 3 year difference in cutoff date between EB2 and EB3 now), the guys with EB3 PD 2002 and 2003 will convert to EB2 by applying new 140 to transfer PD. This flow will balance the cut-off dates. Eventually it will reach a common ground or a break-even point.
I doubt that people try to change from EB3 to EB2 , given the fact that they need get I140 approval which is taking more than 14 months and USCIS announced recently that, they are not bringing back I140 PP in the near future.
