I flew Lufthansa a couple of years ago .. the airline itself wasn't bad, but the Frankfurt airport and the customer service is horrible!
Has anyone noticed, the german and scandinavian airlines (to which my experience is limited) don't seem to follow any kind of boarding order .. they simply allow everyone to board the plane simultaneously which naturally leads to pandemonium.

Has anyone contacted the ACLU of Texas on this? This is unrelated but they have been active on such fronts:
http://www.aclu.org/immigrants/discrim/36876prs20080922.html
ACLU site is a good one. It has tips on how to campaign, how to write letters to your representative etc
Browsing this site would be quite useful for IV members. Maybe IV should have something similar on this site.

I am proud of IV!
Yesterday, I felt proud to be part of a crowd that is so dedicated, selfless, hardworking, fearless, educated, discplined, understanding!!
Each one of you were an inspiration. I cannot thank you guys enough for all your effort.
Logic Life's speech was awesome. I wish he can post it here too, for people who missed it. Vandana....you are the rock star we need!
Franklin is full of energy!!!!!!!
People were thrilled to finally see/meet Aman. He deserves the respect he gets from IV members!
I could go on and on......I have so much to say! Will continue the story in my next post.
Thank you all, for helping me out with everything. We were like a family...looking out for each other. I really felt sad when I was coming back from D.C. Is there a way, all of us can stay there in the White House :)
Thanks once again,
Meenal
"Full of energy"?!? Are you kidding me?!?
I was a complete slacker compared to our fearless leader, the drill sargent, the lost and found chap, the spine of organization ladies.
I barely kept it together! I strongly oppose :)
Just waiting for my flight back now - its been an experience of a life time. I have done things in the last 4 days I never thought I'd experience.
Congratulations to all who came!
The real work now begins and I'm sure there will be an update from Our Fearless Leader soon

The elimination of NC delays will reflect positively on many pending applications with earlier PDs.
One other such positive result can come by capturing lost Visa numbers, something that can potentially happen through the letter campaign. Let us hope it goes as planned.

I think it was Collin Powell that help passed the 7th year extension and one year extensions there on if LC is pending for a year..this was passed since there was a crisis with delay in LC adjudications....so we are at a point that we need such a relief soon...we are heading towards such a crisis point..soon...EB releif should happen soon...I think this was a single issue that was handled and relief provided and EB matters should be handled in a piece meal manner....(I may be wrong may be it was a part of AC21)...also oppenents are saying why piece meal handle when CIR is in place to delay any kind of a relief..
Some of us here are under the grand illusion that
(a) the lawmakes consider relief for skilled immigrants in isolation to be an important enough issue that they will make it a priority
(b) Relief for EB immigrants is totally non-controversial and everybody and his brother will back us.
Both assumptions are dead wrong. If 900 of the biggest companies and universities in america cannot convince congress to make SKIL bill a priority, then you know what a formidable challenge lies ahead of us.
As for EB relief being non-controvesial, I only need give one counter-example : S 1932.
We are all desperate for any relief : I repeat ANY. To think that the core team would be so shortsighted as to only pursue grandiose bills like CIR and not be on the look out for smaller relief measures is naive and severely underestimating their intelligence.

My I485 is pending, recently I have changed my address online. I also recieved confirmation letters for this address change.
After 2 weeks of address change, USCIS issued an RFE. I have not yet received it, but I just want to prepare for this.
What could be the reason for this RFE? Is it common?
seriously dude..whats urgent about this? why do people create new threads with words like urgent, please help, etc etc, when the matter is not even urgent. This is a public forum, if its really urgent case, i have seen lots of people including myself, pitching in and giving their advices. And also, if it is really an urgent issue that you can't wait for responses, you need to be talking to the lawyer.
now coming to your case, i have no reason to believe that your case / question is urgent. You changed address and you got an RFE. you can respond to RFE as long as you are in the same/ simlar job description or whatever the RFE is for. You do not even have the actual RFE with u yet. Tell me whats the urgency about this. Infact if you just follow my posts, i have also posted to a thread that deals with responses to RFE's. I am wondering whats the need to open a new thread with URGENT as the thread name.
I hate to tell this, due to posts and threads like this, people who really require help with some urgent issues, their posts gets ignored. Please understand that this is a public forum and understand that I am just using your thread to send this message to everyone who does this. Nothing personal against you. Hoping you will understand..
Thanks.

I was just wondering, do you have that much paitence to start all over again. It is going to be another 10 years , if you are sent back in the line.
I am in 9th year extension with priority date 09/2002.
My I-140 denied on 06/18/08n and immediately I485 also denied.:mad:
I have Visa vailid till Jan09.
1.If I change employer and able to get labor cleared before jan09 , can I apply for I140 PP and get H1B exension.
2.Is the Priority date transferrable if I change the employer?

I can't agree more.
Many IV members post on this forum as if it some desi networking site.
Today IV is our banner for our Immigration woes. Maybe it is the only one. If anti-immigrants need to know what is happening in our world, they have a single source i.e. IV.
So whenever somebody posts something on this forum, please be reminded that this forum is a favorite among anti-immigrants too. Every post on this forum is indirectly addressing anti-immigrants.
Please be wise about what you post on this forum.
My 2 cents.

I did not understand the "time of filing I-485 (that means that visa is immediately available) minus time that I-140 was pending with USCIS" part.
My situation is as follows - My I-140 is approved and judging by the current situation my child will be above 21years (currently on H4) when visa becomes available.
My questions are - Will I be able to extend my child's H4 beyond his 21 years, assuming I continue on H1? And will I be able to adjust my child's status when visa becomes available?
Thanks
I have similar situation - I applied for 140 in July 2006. My daughter will turn 21 in July 2007. As I have applied for 140 before she turns 21, she is safe for GC, but will loose H4 status when she turns 21. As per my lawyer's advice I have applied for her F1 so that she can stay and continue her studies in US. When I become eligible to apply for 485, she can be included in the application - but, not as a dependent of H1B holder.

I believe all these bills are in response to Bill gates addressing Dept. of Science and Technology last week though he mentioned EB issue he only faced a deaf ear from chair and he stressed a lot on H1B despite of lot of opposition from reps.

[QUOTE=qplearn]If the name check happens before the 485 process is cleared, great! If not, you wait for the name check; lots (and believe me tens of thousands) of people belong to the second group. Since this forum mostly has people stuck in the process at earlier stages, you are not going to find too many people with that kind of experience here. [QUOTE=qplearn]
Absolutely correct - thanks qplearn, a true senior member.
[QUOTE=qplearn] So your respected lawyer is technically correct, but what he/she is saying can be very badly misleading!! One gets the impression that clearing the name check happens automatically with completing work on the 485 by USCIS.[QUOTE=qplearn]
No, that's not what I claimed, unless my English screwed me up - (for the other readers), no one should believe that.
[QUOTE=qplearn]And the name check is certainly not a part of the 140 approval even if the 140 and 485 are submitted concurrently. If any lawyer is telling you this, please change him/her.[QUOTE=qplearn][/I]
Murthy's report (http://www.murthy.com/mb_pdf/apr2304.pdf) makes a different interpretation. My lawyer could not confirm/deny it.
I hope what I said above makes sense :) Took me a long time to compose that ...:)

...I don't mean to sound skeptical, but it is my firm belief (after watching the series of events over the last 8 months), that nothing is final till it's final.
Though, this kind of encouraging news pops up every now and then in the media - we have to (as part of the IV group), work toward getting our provisions passed in whichever Immigration Bill that is on the floor for discussion.
It's surprising that IV is the only group representing the "highly skilled group" and though 100s' of thousands have been affected by the "retrogression" phenomena, we have just about 9000 members...
Let's hope something concrete gets done, this year!
Hope 2007 is the year which puts to rest all the uncertainties we face...

though I agree there is no grace period however practically USCIS has not been rigid about the dates. MOST of the employers do not inform USCIS about firing of H1b. During dot com bust, USCIS has 'unofficially' said that 15-20 days are good enough (again not as a policy decision but informally). It should be avoided, however it may not be always possible, and having few days gap should not be something on which you make life or death decision.
Yes there is no grace period but INS overlook 3-4 weeks gap after layoff.I have seen lot of cases getting approved, if there were filed in that time period.

I have EAD for couple of years & when I moved to Ohio, I was issued 4 years DL. They did look at I-94 (I travelled on AP having one year validaty on I-94), also they DID NOT looked at my EAD expiry date..They asked very simple question - Do you have your SSN? Thats it..!
C'mon...Guys, come to Ohio..you will get DL for 4 years..
Where did you get your DL renewed for 4 yrs? Mine was renewed only till my I-94 validity period.

Great topic. wating one more year would mean 12 more months of rent. so even if the house depreciates it would break even considering the lost rent. This is just my opinion assuming that the depreciation would be less than 5-10% till next summer. Experts please list out the hidden costs involved in mortgage for new home buyers to be careful about.

I think the reason is little bit of everything.
1. We are a very small group.
2. We are doing white collar jobs which they are affraid we are stealing
from their sons and daughters (compare that with the toilet cleaners)
3. We get No sympathy from any side. Reason: we earn lot of money (at least
thats what they think)
4. Our issues are complex. Not many people understand retrogression
or H1B restrictions (compare that with "Hiding in the shadows" argument)
