any suggestion here?
I'm still not decided, couple of days to go....:)
Now with Atlas America off...What's the best alternative?, I'm running out of time here...
Friends, please suggest. I bought ICICI lombard 3 times previously, never had to use it, so no comments there. Now, I'm thinking of buying something better as I had heard horrible things about ICICI lombard.

Although problem is genuine, no body (media, lawmakers, and US citizens) noticed our problem and recognize out contribution. We need to do something non-traditional to draw the attention of media. DC meet is one good chance, if we can gather significant quality heads. I am scared that only around 1000 members (may be less) are active at the peak of depression. And I don't know how many will show up to DC.
Immigration is not our right but at least, world should know the injustice.
I am not worried about H1-B.. They cannot and will not put the restrictions that they have in the bill and the new amendments being proposed.
Trust me you will see that I was right.
WALL street,silicon valley,middle vendors,big vendors,desi;s,small businesses
all will die in no time. I repeat that they will not touch H1-B.
The problem that we face is how to remove this retrogression. How we have to fight for it?
The big companies will help us in getting some relief but we really have to voice our concerns and get the media know what we need.
We should stop worrying about H1-B
We should ask the congress for I-485 filing as Illegals can get in no time, so why are they stopping us (Very Valid Point)
Need more visas to remove backlog.(You increase visas to get the illegals get through to their GC fast, then why are we held up

kubmilegaGC, Thank Q, Infact I have scheduled infopass appointment on Sept 22nd, Which I will cancel it tomorrow, I don't know you have tried the infopass,
Don't miss any opps, Try them all, Good Luck and Best Wishes
wife's SR yielded in a response of "assigned to an officer on 9/11" and my infopass today (9/15) also had the same result....so I guess its a waiting game for us! I tried normal "outside of processing window" method to file SRs but now learnt about getting to directly to talk to IO...will try that tomorrow - I wish I could bug them ay this hour :)

Let me tell you about my experience. I had accident two times one on the street in front of stop sign. My mistake. The other guy hired an attroney to get claims from me. My insurance attroney went on asking for more and more time and finally they made a settlement around $2K. This is a normal american negotiation
My second accident, it was on the freeway and a BMW car hit me at the speed of 70 miles. Called 911 and medical came and asked me whether i was okay and i had no problem the other car bumper was dislogged. They went to nearest medical hospital and was reported a scratch on their body. They made a big claim. My insuarance lawyers were not able to solve the case so the insurance lawyers hired a expert lawyer for me. I met the expert lawyer and he asked me about the accident. He told me that this is a normal way of opening a big window and the insurance lawyer has to close them. Once i got the court paper work he replied with a letter for 90 days time then delayed more. The other party was paying for his hired laywer to sue me and was draining money in the end he signed a full release paperwork with little payment.
Another case, of my nearest friend, Her daughter was tralleving with her friend who was driving the car and dashed on a pole and the passenger girl died on the spot. The girls parrents put a lawsuit and the other person had millions in his bank account (the car was insured with min requirement 15K/30K..) the case went till 4 years and in the end the lawyers made money and settled the case. They blamed the state for roads.
This is how the lawyers make money. Don't worry about anything. Take it easy Whatever happens. If you want remove money for your personal expense like parents needs in india and send them. It will take 18 months to solve and the judges are also bored becasue they hear them everyday.
My insurance lawyer told me this is the way we all make money so don't worry don't talk to the other party. If you get any letters send to the insurance company.
there was a another accident one indian driver made a left turn when the lights were green and three cars hit him. He had minimum insurance and he emotionally suffered for few months. All the other cars who hit had to fix their cars.
(all the above incident happened in CA, and i had been in US(CA) for 7 years).
Don't worry. I drive 100 miles on a busy freeway everyday. Nothing happens if you don't have money.

Let it be an open forum. The reason why Rajeev Khanna's Immigration Portal got so many hits before IV was that it is free.....Why we need to have paid membership when our funding drive was successful is still beyond me
I never have and never will like the idea of being asked to pay, I give what I can unasked. What of the people that by circumstance do currently not have these amounts of money to spare. I should not have to feel excluded nor should I have to explain my very personal reasons why to everyone.
Have you guys looked in the forums lately, people are getting "yelled" at and talked to rudely if they do not disclose how much exactly they have contributed. So we are only allowed to an opinion or help if we have money?
I will contribute when I have money to spare, however it seems I will have to leave this organization based on the comments that have been out there before I get to the point where I can afford to contribute. That goes for both time and money, some of us have responsibilities that we do not want to disclose.
*sigh* I might have just opened myself up to the ones that like to attack....go ahead...

could it be that ppl will not be able to sneak in with pre-approved labor now? if there is a significant number doing that, the PDs will move faster. Congrats IV on this achievement!
I don't understand the movement of PD at all.
The only way I can explain is that PD depends on approved LC before PD. Such persons can apply for GC because they are current.

Thanks. I have seen this document before, and if we are both looking at the same place (top of page 10), this is an average estimate that sweeps lot of detail under the carpet. USCIS's yearly updates (http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/Local%20Processing%20Times_FINAL_11Aug08.pdf) reveal more. As I said earlier, depending on where you live, your processing time can be anywhere between 5 and 15 months. From my visits to several naturalization-related threads, I have rarely seen anybody who became citizen under at least 1 year, going as far back as 2002. You are right, we won't expect another rush now as it was in year 2007 (compare the "Total" number naturalized in 2008 with that in 2007, Table 2, page 3, here (http://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/statistics/publications/natz_fr_2008.pdf)). But then, who knows what can happen after 5 years.

I am in eb3 row, have a job waiting for me in the usa, but i am in england, Have a PD of june 06, am terrified that my job offer will be withdrawn if i dont make some progress soon. Have had job offer for 1 year this week.
Could EB3 row become current soon.??
You don't indicate what stage your application is in (LC/PERM, 140 etc.) Is there a reason your prospective employer has not applied for an H1-B so you can start work before you get a greencard? (This is what 99% of EB applicants have done.)
Assuming they can't or won't, to answer your specific question here is my opinion (FWIW I'm English, EB-3 ROW with a PD of May 2003, on my 8th year of H-1B employment in the USA.):
My guess is the odds are about 50/50 that some form of immigration reform will be passed by the US government "soon" that would positively affect EB3 ROW. The practical definition of "soon" in this case is by September 2007, which allows time for debate, compromise, Presidential wanking around and who knows what Kafka-esque delays in actually enacting the law.
IF this happened there is still no guarantee this change would be positive enough to entirely clear the backlog that so a PD of June 2006 might still not to become current by September 2007.
IF this doesn't happen there is practically 0 chance of any changes that would positively effect EB retrogression prior to March 2009. (After the new government is elected in November 2008 AND then convenes a new session AND then deals with more urgent business than immigration reform.)
So some (hopefully) practical advice:
1) If you can get an H-1B now then do so
2) If you can't get an H-1B start studying for a Masters NOW. This will help you in the long run even if you get your Greencard through EB-3 because higher degrees from the UK are very valued in the USA. And if there is no improvement in EB-3 you at least have a chance at EB-2.
3) If you have no family ties and just want to go someone in North America you would almost certainly be eligible for permanent Canadian residency. You can just go to their website and fill out a simple, points-based questionnaire online. Then you can always visit the Disneyland from Canada!

go stand in line for a Z1. The documentation required is flimsy (some affidavits).
if a background check reveals that you had been on H-1 you won't be eligible for Z visa. You have to come up with a new face, new name, and new ID. Looks daunting but less daunting than getting GC legally.

For all of you who have send me a pvt. message asking me how to reach IO @ TSC, here are the steps:
1) Call Customer Service @ 1 800 375 5283
2) Continue in english, hit 1
3) To check the status, hit 2
4) Know your receipt number, hit 1
5) Enter Receipt number, and then for SRC, hit 1
6) Confirm Receipt Number, hit 1
7) You will now hear the status of your case. At this point, hit 3 to "Report a problem".
Here is the trick - now you will hear 4 options. I believe # 3 is "If your case is outside the processing time..." and # 4 is for "If you have filed several cases and have received a decision on....". You want to hit # 4 and you will be connected to an IO at TSC.
Just a word of caution: You will be talking to an Immigration Officer @ TSC so please be very polite. Some officers will tell you that they cannot give you any information, or you should be calling Customer Service number, simply say 'Thank You' and hang up. It might take days/weeks before you reach an IO who would be willing to help.
Again, the sequence is:
Call the customer service number.
Press 1, 2, 1, Enter Receipt Number, Hit 1 for SRC, Hit 1 to confirm RN, 3 to report a problem, 4 to connect to an officer @ TSC.
1) Call Customer Service @ 1 800 375 5283
2) Continue in english, hit 1
3) To check the status, hit 2

And I'm sure that other must ask these questions of themselves as well but I just haven't come across any postings recently ..
In addition to our drive of sending out letters to the respective lawmakers, what does the group think of visiting one of the local Dept. of State offices in-person to get answers to some of our questions?
1. How is the visa spill-over from EB1 to EB2 being distributed, are there no chances of EB3 candidates receiving a portion of it?
2. What is the rationale for EB3 being unavailable (or moving at snail pace when available) when EB2 dates have been moved to 2006? (Please don't get me wrong, just asking questions)
Thoughts??

As we all await our GCs, I thot we can explore some investment vehicles.
Does anyone here have experience with commodity trading?
Can we trade in commodities on H1 or L1 status?
Is it too risky like forex trading?
Who are the online brokers offer commodity trading?
Is there a minimum account balance / trade required every month or so?
Pls share your experience. Thanks!

IMMIGRATION VOICE ACTION ALERT: 7/11/2007.
Dear Members:
Immigration Voice is organizing its first peaceful protest rally in San Jose, CA on July 14th in order to protest the broken system of legal high-skills immigration. This protest march is being organized to oppose the enormous visas backlogs in the employment based immigration system. This protest march is also intended to oppose the recent decision of USCIS to block the adjustment of status petitions in July resulting from an unprecedented out-of-order reversal on the part of DOS and USCIS.
Please join this rally in huge numbers to create more awareness in the Media, Congress and the Administration. We are already getting attention of Congress and the Administration due to recently published articles on the flower campaign in New York Times and Washington Post on July 11th. If you cannot join but if you know someone who lives in San Jose area and who doesn’t know about this effort, please ask him or her to join this rally. More numbers will get us more media coverage and more attention to this issue.
This rally has the potential to bring our issue to the attention of everyone, including the Silicon Valley tech employers who have a stake in the morale and productivity of the hi-tech foreign employees in their companies and their backlogged immigration.
