Highly Skilled Professionals Call on Congress to Pass Green Card Reforms
Immigration Voice Organizes Congressional Advocacy Days for Highly Skilled Legal Professionals
Washington, D.C. – From April 4-5 2011, over 175 members of Immigration Voice from around the nation will descend onto the nation's capital to ask their congressmen and senators for reforms to the broken Green-Card process.
“While K-Street, the Hi-Tech industry and Congress is distracted once again by H-1B visas, recycling the same old talking points one more time, Immigration Voice’s laser-like focus remains on the nearly 500,000 highly skilled immigrants who remain backlogged for 10-15 years waiting for their Green Cards,” said Aman Kapoor, president of Immigration Voice. “These highly-skilled professionals believe that the H-1B visa controversy sucks-up all the oxygen in the room whenever employment-based immigration policy is discussed. However, the real problem lies in the fact that there is a huge pool of talent untapped by American employers in the form of highly skilled legal professionals who have been living here on temporary visas as they patiently wait for their Green Cards. These law abiding, tax-paying, highly skilled future Americans, cannot start their own companies and immediately create jobs in America, change employers or accept promotions during the Green Card application process, which now spans 10-15 years. This creates serious quality of life issues and ultimately hurts the U.S. economy.
“Immigration Voice aims to create awareness with members of Congress, congressional staff and policy makers about the Green Card backlog, which inhibits job creation, entrepreneurship and wealth creation for all Americans. These immigrants are waiting to showcase their innovation leadership with their U.S. work experience American education. Immigration Voice will insist that Congress focus on the Green Card backlog rather than on H-1B visas,” concluded Kapoor.
Immigration Voice has arranged nearly 350 visits to congressional offices April 4-5 in both the House and Senate. You are invited to meet these activists at their Capitol Hill reception:
What: Immigration Voice Congressional Reception
When: 5:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m., Tuesday, April 5th, 2011
Where: B-340 Rayburn House Office Building
To learn more and to arrange an interview with Immigration Voice on the dates listed above, Contact: Immigration Voice (202) 386-6250 or Press@ImmigrationVoice.org
Founded in December 2005, Immigration Voice is a rapidly growing, national grassroots, non-profit 501 (c)(4) organization with 57,000 highly-skilled legal immigrants as members. Immigration Voice is committed to commonsense reforms to the employment-based immigration and Green Card process.

I am sorry to hear ur situation, but can you tell us more? Like why should someone get a RFE for h1b extension??? I got my h1b extension last year for 3 years without any hasstles and also got stamping, offcourse I provided all tax documents and paystubs (latest) for the H1b extension.
Just trying to understand if this is a pattern now.

Lets say her H4 expires on Apr 10th 07. If her I 129 application is filed on Apr 1st, Do you think her I 129 is considered to be ok? Again, USCIS wont be able to generate a receipt notice with in 10 days and assuming that the receipt notice will be generated after Apr 10th, what kind of impact will it have as her H4 would have expired by Apr 10 th? It looks like the bi specialization program is causing more delays because the cases need to be transferred from VSC to CSC. As Andy pointed out, there is no guarentee service for H4 approval with PP.

GC_Wow,
Why haven't you filed for H1 extn? You need your H1 if you want to bring your future wife inside US. If you have an approved I-140, use it to get a 3 year H1 Extn if not you can get 1 year extn based on labor filing.
Do not, I mean DO NOT lose your H1 status if you want bring your future wife into US as a dependent.

On the first page of 485, my employer put his address.
So I am guessing the 485 receipt will go to him even without any G-28.
EAD and AP will directly come to you anyway.
ah man!
That is possible. Since they don't need your signatures on each and every page of I-485, they can do that without your knowledge and have USCIS send all communication to them...

Is it possible to file I-485 without I-693(Medical) ?
The reason I ask is that I cannot get a doctor's appointment in July. For some reason, if we are able to file in July, can I submit the 485 first and submit teh I-693 later.
Please advise
As per the bulletin I read, USCIS has indicated they will reject the application without I-693 period. Hence search across whole of US; if need be. Remember another thing, the appointment with Dr. is always two times; first time they take your blood (for AIDS test); then they will call second time after the blood analysis is done; if everything is fine, they would sign the I-693 and put that in a sealed envolpe.

Hi Guys,
My LCA has Computer Software Engineer as job title.I have 5 years of Experience as Oracle functional consultant.Currently I'm working as Oracle consultant.My 140 is approved and got my EAD card.In jan 2008 it will be 180 days of filing 485.I want to change my career towards IT Sales.
I have an offer from an American Staffing company as a Technical Recruiter.The job responsibilities include hiring Software Engineers.But the job title is different from my LCA.I want to join this company using EAD in jan 2008 and apply AC 21.Today I have checked with my Lawyer this is what she says"
In instances such as this, when we send the letter to the USCIS regarding AC21, we include the following details with reference to the job title. � Although the job title differs, the job duties are substantially the same. The title used by the company is their internal designation for this position."
She says that i will be able to work as Technical Recruiter using EAD.Any one can suggest me on this?I have very little knowledge about AC 21 and how it works
Thanks in advance
h12gc
I would not do this as the job responsibility is completely different. Just curious why do you want to change from oracle functional to Recruiter???
Take the opinion of many lawyers and experts before even thinking about doing this.
Thanks

Lou Dobbs is a xenophobiac and doesn't listen no matter what argument you put in front of him.He is single mindedly focussed on opposing immigrants , be it legal or illegal.He just wants to project himself as a champion for the causes of American middle class, totally ignoring the contribution immigrants have made to build this country.Let that bugger speak , we will also protest & put our point of view in the right way & at the right forum.

A top national reporter wants to speak with someone in EB
community who may have recently lost his/her job due to current
economic situation. I think it would be best for our cause for someone
who was offered a new job possibly in the 'same or similar' area
immediately after losing their job. It would help to highlight that
the highly-skilled immigrants are in demand because of their skills
even when the economic situation is not doing well, but, there is no
reason to keep us in limbo for over a decade, merely to test our skill
level. There are better ways to test our skill level. If you or
someone you know fits this profile, kindly email your information and contact details to info at immigrationvoice.org
immediately.
The reporter will also highlight the housing angle and that we can
start new ventures that could potentially create new jobs to uplift
the economy.
This is a big opportunity as the interview from this reporter will be published in most big newspapers and on news websites. We need someone urgently today if possible.
===================
UPDATE FROM THE REPORTER
Actually, what I'm looking for is very broad -- anyone on a work permit
who is concerned about the current economic situation and job losses in
the U.S. economy.
==============
The reporter is trying to speak to immigrants waiting for their Greencards about their concerns about job security, if they have a plan B, if they've been pushed out in restructurings/layoffs and moved to a new job, etc, as they hear the layoffs this year are affecting such people, particularly in the
financial sector
====================
So I guess a lot of people on the forum will qualify. If you are good with interviews, pls contact asap.

Everything will be alright. It happened to me the same way .I just submitted an experience letter from one of my colleague who is still employed with my previous employer. My 140 was approved as soon as they received the documents.
I hope you have progressive experience (it means, growth within the company, as you gain years of experience). This is essential. Other than that, you should be good.
Cheers
