I am part of MN Chapter and attended the rally. It was a wonderful experience. I am proud to part of IV family and I am sure that lawmakers will listen to our voice. It was also exciting to see faces behind the IV names.
Keep up the good work IV

I sent my passport for renewal during first week of Oct 07 and still have no clue about the status of my passport. I am at their mercy now, hoping & praying that I will get a new passport soon. No one gives any updates. I just cannot seem to get hold of anyone at this consulate when I call during 2.00pm -4.00pm to check on the status of my application. If by mistake anyone picks up the phone, she does not have any status update and asks us to call after few weeks again.
I sent email & fax to see if I can find out anything about my passport, but no one cares to answer. Their customer service is pathetic to say the least. If only I can find the email address of Vice Consul or that of Indian ambassador in Washington DC, I would like to send a detailed email about the kind of service I received....knowing very well that it will not serve any purpose to anyone. Thats the way those idiots work, and no one can do anything about it.

USCIS has to accept applications for first few days. Then they have to go through all the application to determine the number based on the country. Then they will send the number to DOS who will decide the dates of next bulletien.
It's not like USCIS will say "Oh I got 300,000 applications today, let's close the door..." It does not work that way.
I understand that you are only trying to say what your lawyer told you. But, don't try to make it sensational topic by saying "Horrible news" and all. We are anyways stressed out from the process and on top of it this rumor comes up in every other thread. :(

Chanduv - I am assuming you are asking "How do I start with walking/ running?". Here is what it takes to do this
- The first step is Commitment to your Health and Wellness. This can be achieved by putting away 30 - 45 minutes three to four times a week. That could be at lunch, evenings, mornings whatever time is suitable for you.
- The next one is consistency. You do not have to Jump start today by walking/ running 45 minutes, 5 times a week. If you can only do that for 30 minutes twice a week that is fine but you have to be consistent with it. You get addicted to it after a while and increase the time. You also do not have to run marathon's to be healthy and active.
You can start walking and you can set yourself a goal of walking 1 miles or 3.1 miles (5K) by a certain date. There are several races in the Tristate Area that you can choose to paricipate. you can find an event on runnersworld.com or active.com or we (Team IV) can help you find a local event. you can recruit your friends/ family to participate as well. If you can get a few folks in the Tristate chapter to do this as Team IV that will be awesome.
Also please let us know if you need any help/ guidance etc in finding an event and getting started with walking/ running. We will be Glad to help you out in anyway.
Folks, sorry I have not been in much action, with other stuff taking priority, but I would definitely like to know what it takes to do this? I have completely lost fitness due to bad lifestyle, long commutes to work, working spouse, small baby, and other tensions and I like this idea a lot.
Nolaindian - can you briefly explain how this marathon works? Does every city have a marathon to which we register, is it a community? Who sponsers? Do we do it as IV? Do we all form a group. Are the rules set by us? Do we pledge????
I can definitely start off with a short one - until I pick up on fitness :) Tri state members are more than welcome to join me :)

The Murray Amendment failed to make it through in the Senate Appropriations bill due to strong opposition from some senators for adding domestic issues with a war funding bill. The amendment wasn't defeated by vote, it was just that it was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
The house bills HR 5882, 5921 and 6039 is gathering good momentum. Please call your own lawmakers, CHC members and the list of lawmakers which IV wants to call. Please call and ask them to co-sponsor these bipartisan bills
We can make it happen.
What amendments got defeated ?? I lost touch of this thread last week.
Do we have any updates on the bills?

Congrats.
Yours and illinois_alum were in the excel sheet and were current? Were there anyone else current in the sheet we sent to USCIS and waiting for EAD? We need to find out if they cleared the easy cases first and gave them GCs instead of processing EADs. As per our latest information, USCIS had been going through the scanned notices. The NSC issue fix was already set in motion last week. It remains to be seen how soon NSC EAD cases are cleared. It will not be overnight, and may take some time, but we have to monitor the improvements in NSC.

Why do I get a feeling you are incapable of digesting the concept of "Law of the land". There are certain rules that govern PR & Citizenship statuses ( of all countries)and only land mark & ground breaking edicts can alter such law’s , and that too very slightly. To put it were tersely "this is a bullshit suggestion" and is really wasting the purpose of this forum. The only reason so many people have responded is that it is "THAT RIDICULOUS"
Except you, most of them who responded to this thread like this thought. May be you are thinking too much about yourself as a perverted intellectual. May be it is your inborn nature. Try to understand the meaning of this thread first.

Is there a reason this field can't be made optional or have an N/A option?
did not know this.
what about people who already have green cards/citizenship but are interested in helping? is there no way for them to register?
we might be losing membership and/or funding there.
maybe open up a separate registration for those members

Please also recommend stocks for tomorrow...
Thanks
Well I do not think it is appropriate to give advise and if it fails then there is bad blood . Let us work towards
Recognize patterns
watch business news and how it affects the stocks you like
make a portfolio of stocks you like to watch (can be easily done on gogle finance) I will help if needed.
Watch the volume of stocks being traded at certain times in the day and how that affected the stock price (Can be done after 5.00 Each night )
It is not hard work it is intelligent work , Maybe overwhelming at first but once it clicks it stays
You should always have a PLAN
I will post a few questions that each of us need to answer individually to develop a plan you want to use to achieve success .
Not all material I post will be mine , I will post lessons /Tips that are beneficial to this forum.

Slumdog,
You have really taken pains to put this in such an articulated fashion. Even though I do not feel great right now, I cannot stop dropping my 2 cents here.
While we know that all NON GC Holders will stop buying houses for the correct reasons I want to underscore some subtle reasons that influenced this buying spree. It is not my intention to put any one on pedestal. I am just writing what I observed. Not intended at any one in person.
Greed and lack of understanding
Want to make easy money. People think that Real estate value does not fall, just like in the places where they come from, where property has two values, Market value and government value with a huge differential. In the US, the county property assessments are purely based on market value. So thinking that the gains are not going to evaporate is lack of understanding of the system coupled with greed.
Do I/We really need a house?
Not many of the troubled home owners might have asked this Q. Had if they asked this Q, things would have been a lot better. The discussion of buying vs renting was almost gone. Every one held the opinion that buying trumps renting.
Save money on Taxes
This IMO, is the biggest myth. One needs to keep changing the house every 5 years to have the itemized deduction more than the standard deduction.B T W, If you live in one of the states that do not have state tax, your itemized deduction might not be so big that you will really benefit a lot every year. Hey! It does not matter where you are paying. Either you pay your taxes to uncle sam directly so that the govt can run fine or buy a home and contribute to the economy. In the end Govt gets the money. Biggest lie propagated by Realtors. Look at the amortization tables of your mortgage to find out.
Bad Realtor
Giving cash back to the buyers and trying to sell every damn home. When I buy a home, I will refuse to take the money from the Realtor off the bat. I will make him/her work and find the right home I want and would not just buy a home in a day. Easy money for the Realtor and a bad home with a bad loan for buyers. There are people who went out on the weekend and signed a home and told me at work on Monday.
DINKS So we are good
DINKS=Double income no kids. So what? That is now. what about six months from now? Are there going to be any life changing events? We cant predict every thing but it is NOT difficult to forecast whether a family is going to have a kid or not and what kind of financial implications will such events have?
Peer pressure
Lets take fictitious families R & S living in the same rented community with similar back ground. Mr and Mrs R decide to buy a home and they buy one. Mr S does not think it is right for them to do so. How ever, Mrs S pressures Mr S into doing so. Believe me this happens all the time.
Down payment
There is a reason why 20% down payment was a norm in the mortgage industry for a long time. 20% down payment keeps PMI and the high interest rates on your secondary loan away. I know people who are burned because of PMI and interest rate on second loan. Such down payment will keep the monthly EMI affordable and leaves out gimmicks.
I can understand taking a second loan on the 10% down payment, but people were let go with 0% down payment leaving them with a bad loan and a bad home. Some people bought the home they wanted, but the price was too high. Thats all they are left with.
As President O said, we collectively failed to take difficult and correct decisions even though the greed and deception can be attributed to some people on the wall street.
