First, find a new job and check whether the job would be the one which you would like. Get H1B transfer and move to the next job.
If i were you, with a lame excuse tell the present employer that you want to move to a another job because there is nothing challenging to work on. I liked working with you and i hope i can join you sometimes later. Praise him a lot so that he feels he had been falsely praised. If he starts talking to you about the contract tell him you would report to DOL etc..
I paid for my H1B fees and i don't care for paying the fees if i can get a raise by changing employers. This is my 3rd job and i had paid the H1B fees except one part the employer has to pay. (i.e. fraud fee, etc..) the lawyers fee is not required to be paid by the employer.
Forget of $3K, change the job and try to get 20% higher salary elsewhere a place you like. Its easy to get a new job with better compensation.
About my experience, I was working with a big desi company and they gave me 0.25% raise the first year and 0.7% raise the third year. When asked as promised when are you going to apply for my green card. They replied not this year but maybe on the 4th or 5th year because i am not fit to be a engineer. I left the company and found a small firm. I asked them to match my present salary and work on my green card. They promised me. (I like and respect Japanese onwers, they respect and treat better). They increased my salary by $13K in 6 months.
world is not small, you will find some better employer. Don't fight on small matters. Look at a big picture. Fight with your present employer only if you have no options. If you have options, cut your losses and move ahead in life.

It is getting clear now why Legal Backlogs are not touched in this present Bill.
Because Home Land Security Dep budgets depend on them..If backlogs are gone .. Budget is gone ...
So our backlogged cases will not get relief ..Looks like this will remain unfair reality
This is so outrageous! :mad:
What can legals do then to change the situation? :confused:

Do you have to go thru an accountant to start a company?
I started an LLC earlier this year. Much easier and less risk with an LLC. It is still early to say whether the company will make it to higher grounds or not. But I sure am trying. I have me and my wife as manager members. No employees at the moment.
Best of luck to you all. GC or no GC, we can still make the entrepreneur dream happen.

Do you really agree with multi-national managers(via L1A). This is the area wherein the interpretation is pretty loose. If you dissect EB1 data you would find that EB1C used bulk of it except for this year due to bad economy and tightening of screws. There should be some very clearly defined guidelines for EB1-C, somebody being an onsite coordinator or managing 5 people should not be eligible. This category should be reserved for those who are managing at least 100 people or control business in several millions. I agree that EB1 should be just for the exceptional.
I support you, most of the guys L1A/Bdon't deserve to be in EB1. If L1 (especially the offshoring companies) are that good then all of us are eligible for honorary greencards....
the whole L1 rule for GC and L1 visa is just exploited to its limit.

What is anyone willing to do to get the updates ??
...we could leverage the enormous dedication of the core team and multiply it several fold, ....
Completly agree with this point.. no questions there.. we need to have more people who can help multiply the efforts of CORE..
...
there are several ways in which we could implement the update process so that information is only shared to a predefined "pool" ... I know this takes work, but if the Core is looking for a person to pull together a Conference Call to compile this update and send it out, I would be glad to volunteer my services.
lets wait to hear how CORE wants to have that pool generated.
my thoughts, people can contriute, (a) money only (b) money and some personal time (to gather data and compile them) (c) money and personal time to organize state chapter meetings and meet with local autorities or senstors (this is state chapter leaders today) and (d) money + lot if time + lobbying (CORE)...
I have seen some emails in GA chapter for some meetings.. Working actively in those state chapters and contributing should be a good "pool" who can get these updates... also, this will encourage genuine people to participate proactively in state chapters and grow IV, which is the main goal for any grass-roots org.

Chandu,
Although you bring up interesting discussion, but these stories about Neelima are really old. Dec 2005 ?
Did you see anything recent on her ? Any updates ?
As for handling these situatsions being diplomatic is best but that is easier said than done.
Also, I think we are much more likely to face these types of problems with small companies which are in remote areas.
Big corporations are much much better. I have been lucky in this regards that I have mostly worked with big corps.
These companies actually go to extra lenghts to appreciate diversity.
In fact last year in my current client Indians organized big Diwali festival celebrations to
give American people a chance to enjoy Indian food and learn about our culture.
Its not all bad. There are some very very good facets as well.
Yes - I agree. I worked in big and small corps. In one of the corps I worked we used to have a friday noon lunch where every country person must talk about his culture and discuss, play their country music etc ...

If your argument is that after holding a US Masters , OP will not be a legit EB2 applicant, even you are not legit. Go get some education
Looks like you are also a candidate with three year bachelors degree and a namesake masters from US univ that you bought and which put you in EB2.
Legit EB2 = GRE (good Score) + Toefl (good score) + Fulltime MS/MBA + Job in forture 500
Not legit EB2
1. 3 year degree from India + initial application in EB3 that is later converted into eb2 by buying a masters from some shady roadside univ in the US.
2. bachelors + 5 years experience from some software company in hyderabad, as most people from there have at least 10 years software exerience even if they graduated 4 years ago.
I am sure you fall in one of the two later categories.

There are limits to everything - and to worries too. Of course you don't want to be taking meaningless risks, but to live like a chicken is not an option either. But this is more philosophical, here is my question.
USCIS may send RFEs for whatever and whoever they think it's reasonable. They can investigate and reinvestigate and GC holders and citizens, it's their job. Now tell me. How many you know of GC holders who got denied their citizenships because they just threw away their W2s? How many GCs were actually revoked and people were deported because USCIS investigated company and found out that most of the employees were H1b?
Here is case of my cousin, he had his GC for many years, his wife and kids got citizenships. He didn't because he didn't accrue his 5 years in the US. He felt that he would be more successful in his home country. So he had business over there and was traveling back and forth to/from US. Once, at airport the immigration officer asked why he was traveling so much? He honestly answered "i'm doing business abroad". What do you think? INS officer initiated investigation and put him on deportation. Reason? "Absence of immigration intent!!!!". The case was quickly dismissed by immigration judge. My cousin was telling me how angry the judge was at prosecutors, he told them not to waste tax money like this anymore. So... what would be the right choice for him? Taking risk and making money (now he has a $1M house in LA) or be "careful" and live in some crappy hollywood apartment until his citizenship?
People who left employer early or want to leave early will say it is ok; because it suits their needs.
People who plan on staying later or don't have any intention of leaving early will say to stay.
Bottom line is it is upto everyones own risk tolerance. I have just seen some of the biggest cowards in terms of immigration all of a sudden get so brave after they got the greencard.
If people are waiting years and playing it safe then what is the possible harm to wait a little longer and not get riled up by every small story of someone who got questioned at citizenship time, etc.
Immigration laws don't change very often; however, uscis interpretations and memos do change quite frequently. When you have to start hiring lawyers, go to court, face uncertainty then we'll see how brave people are.

Hello Everybody,
I know many of us are frustrated because of EAD delay. I am one of them and today I called up USCIS.
Here is the sequence.
1) 1 800 375 5283
2) 1,2,2,6,1 receipt notice# 1,3,4
3) you will have to wait for 10 to 15 minutes and one of the officer will come online for you.
4) at least they will give you information about your case ( mine is sent to some storage and they had to issue an expedite request to get it processed again. I am july 2 filer with notice dat of sept 8,2007 3 infopass apointments, 1 SR). the officer has access to look at the file and can give you appropriate information( they are not like regular service agents who will read what you see on USCIS.gov).
5) as of now they told me that I will information from USCIS in 2 weeks.
All the best

Chanduv23,
Thanks again for being ever so helpful. That being said, can you please share your thoughts on the following situation?
140 approved, 485 pending for more than 180 days, EAD/AP approved, and in hand.
Candidate leaves sponsoring employer and joins another employer (similar position/salary, etc.) New employer's attorneys send the AC21 letter and G-28 forms to the USCIS. The attorneys are very familiar with this, have handled lots of AC21 cases (Fragomen).
Is there any way the candidate can call USCIS customer service and ask for the attorney/representative's name on file, just to make sure that the G28 did get processed and the attorney name on file got changed from the old law firm to the new one? Would customer service share that information with the candidate?
Thanks,
