This poll should also collect the year of PD and whether they have any dependents.

Anybody knows, if the visa recapture included in the dream act?

Hasn't he given many speeches like this before as well? I mean he has been giving speeches on immigration since 2004 yet nothing has happened so far. He addressed it on State of the Union speech, prime-time speech from the oval office, and countless other occasions but what has been the end result - NOTHING. I wouldn't keep my hopes very high just because Bush said so. It�s all up to the congress now.

I know have gave many speeches and nothing happend, itz all about politcs, location was Arizona where he wanted to show many Reps about how border security is improved,

This is his first speech after STRIVE has been introduced, I am just forseeing on coming debate all over the media again,

Saturn has plants to produce cars, BUT NO TECHNOLOGY OF THEIR OWN. NO R&D.

Saturn sells rebranded-rebadged OPEL (GM - EUROPE, now sold to Magna) Vehicles.

While Jaguar and Land Rover are very strong brands with their own technologies and research & design capabilities. Besides Tata bought those brands when Rupee was historically high (below 40 per USD). So I don't think Tata made any mistakes.

I think it is Mahindra who is making mistake by not buying Hummer or Volvo or Saturn. I am very excited to see first Indian Vehicle to be sold in US i.e. Mahindra in 2009. No matter what, I will be the first to buy one.

Mahindra has been selling farm vehicles, tractors and stuff, in the USA for quite some time now. I doubt if you want to buy a tractor.

I'm a little confused about my options in starting my H1 extension process and applying for my wife's H4 application.
Here is my current status :
6 yr H1-B period is ending on Dec 22, 2009. I'm getting married in India in October and will apply for my wife's H4 immediately after. Here are my questions :

1. Will there be any problem with my wife's H4 application if there are just 2 months of validity left on my H1 visa?

NO, THERE SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM. HOWEVER, IT WOULD BE BETTER IF YOU HAD AN APPROVED EXTENSION OR AT LEAST AN EXTENSION RECEIPT NOTICE TO SHOW THE CONSULATE.

2. I could potentially start my H1 extension process now. I'm eligible for a 3 year extension since the Priority date of Jan 3, 2006, on my EB2 application is not current. If I was to start my extension process now, my approval may not happen before October and my lawyer says there may be some problems if I travel outside the country on a pending H1 application. Should I apply for my H1 extension now or after I come back to the US in November?

IT MAY BE EBST TO APPLY JUST BEFORE YOU LEAVE. HOWEVER, YOU CAN PROBABLY TRUST YOUR ATTORNEY'S SUGGESTION.

3. If I was to apply for H1 extension in Nov and don't get an approval by the time of my current H1 expiry in December, will I be out of status?

NO, YOU ARE OK TO STAY ONCE AN EXTENSION WAS FILED BEFORE THE CURRENT STATUS EXPIRES.

Thanks.

Finally, case shows up this morning with notice date Oct 9th. However, physical notice was not received. Does anyone know how to request a copy of the receipt? Thanks.

As a student who came here myself and understand the huge investment they have to make to come here to study in US, I fell sorry for these students and there parents. With the draconian restrictions imposed by uscis and certain senators many of these kids will not have an oportunity to work in US. I am not sure how they will be able to repay the huge loans they are taking to pay the fees to US universities

My husband is the primary applicant for our GC application and he's on bench since Feb 2009. We have valid EAD and AP's. We are planning to travel using our AP for a 3 week visit to India. He still has a valid H1B, since his payroll is not running for the last 4 months his employer suggested him to move into his EAS status. When we asked the attorney if we need to apply somewhere to move to EAD status from H1B he said we donot need to.
Our question....Is it sensible to travel on AP him being unemployed?

Thank for reply
the attorney says its all about your I-94, if your visa will expire in 3 months, then you should apply for extension!
have you ever heard about a case kike mine? please share.

Congratulations !!! Happy for you, enjoy your freedom.

Durbin (father of Dream Act) hates us. He loves to grand stand for "children of undocumented" "the down torn, the poor, the under privileged" and thinks we are like spoilt rich kid. This is a good thought, but who will bell the cat? Durbin is totally irrational when it comes to children of legal and undocumented. Not sure that you know this, but just thought of laying the facts as they are.

Anci,

Can you tell me your I140 receipt date, category and service center?

Thanks

When 140 is revoked USCIS generally send NOID and ask from a offer letter from intended(new) employer. If you can not provide a letter from new employer... they will deny 485.... sorry.

Your EAD is valid, but it is useful only if you have a new job.

Guys and Gals,

I am pretty pretty sure most of us have a lot of H1b friends we can talk to about immigration voice and bring them on board.

Join this effort and make a difference. Joining at the last moment when legislative debate is taking place may be too late a time to join and bring more members.

Email me at jay@Immigrationvoice.org and you can start helping today. All we need is 45 minutes of your time per day for a few days until we reach a 10,000 volunteer mark.

Help us make this chain-recruitment work. We cannot have the same few 20 people trying to bring new people on board coz those 20-25 members dont have unlimited friends they know who CAN be involved in this.

Hi all,

Between this thread and the main chapter thread, we have now accumulated a handful of members, looks like we are all set to be an active chapter!
couple of things:

1. IV IL chapter has invited us to their conference call, please check the thread called "Members in MN" under the IV agenda forum, if anyone can participate and report back here it would be great.

2. Conference Call: Anyone have dates or times in mind? btw pappu, question for you: does iv have a way of facilitating these calls?

Looking forward to hearing from you all, together we will surely achieve our objectives...

Even approved GC and Neutralized Citizenship certificates also can be revoked, if it was found later that there was some fraud involved in it.

I know the GC and citizenship process is long and hard, but did not realize it required such sacrifices (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=neuterizing)... :D

I was watching an interview with John McCain on larry king live 2 or 3 days ago. Mccain said that an immigration bill would be introduced in the senate in a week or two which would focus on border security first, i am not sure what that means, focusiing on border security first, good or bad for us? would that mean our provisions will be moved to a later stage where border security is ratified first before anything can happen etc etc which is what anti-immigrants want.
No, it means that the bill will have some trigger or benchmark before any legalization for the undocumented workers.

I see two votes on cloture were rejected !

- just a note - I would also strongly recommend filing your spouse's AOS as soon as possible (once current). Please note that this should be done prior to receiving approval for your Adjustment.

This right here is one area I REALLY need to improve in.

I get home from a show (or whatever I've shot), and can't pick my photos for my editor.
I am ALWAYS so afraid somebody else is going to see and/or like something in a shot that I might not be seeing. I usually end up sending in too many photos.

I'm probably the most undecisive person in the world:o
