Dish,
Everyone here on this forum understands the frustration of H4 limitations.
However, to say that IV has not done anything beyond media publicity is far from truth.
I hope that you read the "Amendments" link on the homepage(top).
These amendments sponsored by Sen. Brownback and co-sponsored be Sen. Alexander and Bingaman DID NOT HAPPEN AUTOMATICALLY.
And they did not come from other organization or lobbying firm. They were introduced to the comprehensive bill on April 7(Just before recess) SOLELY due to efforts of IV, QGA, AAPI and the good staff at Brownback's office.
I have to point this out because by saying that "IV has not done anything besides media publicity" is not true and it discourages people who have spent hundreds of dollars of OWN money to travel to Washington DC and lobby for these amendments. On top of that, core group members HAVE taken UNPAID TIME OFF FROM THEIR WORK to travel to DC. These things are not easy to get done. Unfortunately there is a partisan env now in Senate and the Comp bill's future is uncertain but had that bill been passed in Senate, it would have had amendments that come from nowhere else BUT Immigration voice.
So please be kind to the group and have patience. H4 applicants have a bad situation, but there are some in our membership who have been laid off after 6th year and are looking to go back to India as their current employer would withdraw the pending labor. So these guys are GOING BACK to country of origin along with their H4 SPOUSES. Things could be a lot worse and one should be mindful that everyone has problems in their lives.
thanks.

I have my reasons to stay here which you will never understand.
Is this fair? You only rebuked questions with Katrina, and your boss, why not rebuke all my questions?
And, I do not have to understand your reasons, as long as we all understand our reasons, that should stop us from coming to IV and whining.

I feel sorry for EB3 folks even though I'm under EB2. But I get upset when some of the EB2 folks don't even know the reason why they started getting green cards recently all of a sudden ( b'coz of roll over). They don't educate themselves and talk as if they deserve the green cards. If was a collective effort from IV and fellow immigrants that pressurised USCIS to follow the rules and reduce the backlogs.

Funny... Sathweb took his post back, which even he does not agree with anymore and you now agree with it..
Point is very simple: If a person has a valid job offer then by all means go ahead and apply for H1 from any status (be it H4, F1, B or Z...) but if you don't have a proper job offer then please don't apply for the H1 visa through a body shop as you are taking away a valuable visa #, which unfortunately are very limited.
QUOTE=sumanitha;314025]I Completely agree with your reply. First, when I read the comment of that guy, I couldnt accept at all.
You have given a nice and neat reply.[/QUOTE]
Pardon me, if this is not appropriate question. You mentioned that your wife went to School here. Is it Masters Degree? If yes, she can apply for H1 under the 20,000 quota, which is not lottery based(at least for few weeks).

There were so many rejected L1 Individual petitions filed by TCS/Infy/Wipro etc.. These big companies will include all the internal tools in the resumes and INS asked for the purchase orders for all the specialised tools.
As there were no PO's for those tools, petitions were rejected in large numbers. This has started in the last year and continuing... i personally have lot of friends whose petitions were rejected and went back to India..
I also know a few people from these companies. Remember when the senators/congressmen sent the letters asking for explanation of how they are using h-1/l-1. Companies responded with the biggest bull---- answers.
Now they are seeing what happens when you don't take serious when government representatives ask you things. Unfortunately; they are being picked on but everyone else is becoming collateral damage.

A person has been with a company for 10 years as a Test Lead and is promoted to a position of a manager and the Lead expects that on the first day of being a manager he wants all the rights and benefits of being a manager for 10 years even though he has been a lead for all of those 10 years.

Apahilaj,
I got the SR response letter saying I contacted them and they are responding by saying that I should wait for the FP if I have not received one yet. So basically I am where I was 2 months ago.
If you read my earlier posts, I did have doubts that FP and NC may have some connection together.
But I think this seems more of a glitch in the TSC system in generation of FP. I mean either its NC or glitch that is causing this delay. Anyway, the NSC at least generates one for you after you speak to an IO. We are unfortunate in that also.
Dingudi,
In your response letter, did they anywhere mention about biometrics or finger printing notice specifically? In my letter, they did not mention about finger printing at all...All they said that the decision on my case has been delayed due to ongoing background check...I am not sure if they even knew that I had opened up the SR for not receiving FP notice.
Yeah, I was thinking about your earlier post last night when I was reading the response letter..:) But I just can not subscribe to the idea that FP and name checks are even remotely connected...
Well, we just have to wait and watch...good luck to all the fellow sufferrers..

CPO today. Case at local office. Had 1 interview where all documents for status and taxes were checked for the past 12 years. Never had a problem or gap in status and IO was surprised why the case came to local office. I was atleast happy that the interview is the worst thing that can happen and I am done through that.
After 3 infopass appts, 2 SRs in all have the CPO in hand.
Good luck all.
Was your Employer (GC Sponsoring) in any kind of trouble in past?

Hello arnet,
That is an excellent idea. We are already working closely with USINPAC. Here is some of info about this.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=576
USINPAC has been very helpful and has played a key role in guiding and helping us. We should all be Thankful to USINPAC for significant help that they have provided us.
AAPI is another group that has been instrumental in getting our provisions in the bill.
We have received positive results from many other groups. But no other group has been able to help us as USINPAC and AAPI.
If anybody has any such suggestion or could provide a lead to any other organization or personality, please let us know. This would help us all.

Vijjus, this is coming from a veteran:
There is not such out of touch congressmen or further education needed to be done. Congressmen are well aware of the plight of legal immigrants way before than immigrationvoice.org dreamed of existence. We fought hard in order to educate congressmen and often their staff played dumb, but again the truth is that they never cared about our plight.
The reality is that this, as usual, is primarily driven by business needs. Major employers such as Bill Gates lobby mainly for H1B numbers increase. Employers are very much aware that H1B staff under pressure can put up and deliver the very long journey of 60-80h/week expected at Microsoft. Yes, Microsoft and many other major employers could easily find qualified US students with two years of experience, skills by the way comparable to what the vast majorities of H1B's offer, but Americans who do not need the H1B would give a finger to any employer who would expect that an American would work 80h/week for 55K/year. The "brighest and the best" out there, a typical individual on the mid 30's with 10+ year of experience, masters degree and tons of sweating and bleeding in the IT world, I am not sure whether Bill Gates want to open the wallet and pay more than $100K. They would prefer to outsource the work to China - not even India anymore. That is the reason and the only reason only which explains why wages have not increased to IT programmers in the last few years.
Illegal aliens are being backed by major employers of cheap labor, such as Wall Mart and many others. Illegals also can put extra long hours and therefore they yield more output for less investiment. That's is the reason that US employers seem to fight so consistently to keep them here. Since illegal aliens are in higher numbers and can deliver more not offshoreable productivity than us, so that is the reason why they are the ones getting the red carpet.
At this moment our incluence is minimal, if not not pathetic. As a matter of fact, I am afraid that more our category of workers fight and protest, more the American people will be outraged and scared and will react calling *their* congressmen even harder in order to push us all out.
For the naive and dreamers out there who are shaking their heads after reading the above and believe that the above is propaganda, so just think about it.
Thanks,
Tito Ortiz

(disclaimer: Like everyone else here, I am very dissapointed. Hence the negative mood)
I am wondering how we ended up here. We have been doing this campaign for so long, we have now hired a lobbying firm, and we've met, called, emailed and faxed so many senators etc. How come this bill completely ignored, and in fact in some senses, hurt us?
I have seen posts about lawmakers being stupid, out-of-touch etc but I think these posts are mostly facetious. I feel troubled by the fact that in spite of numerous efforts the lawmakers decided to ignore us - and if this was India I would have attributed this to the fact that in us they don't (yet) have a vote bank.
Please take this post in a positive way and as a stimulus for some soul searching - why did we end up in this situation?

SRC is always Texas , LIN is Nebraska. Also when you input the receipt number in USCIS case status website it tells you which center this application is with.
can you tell by the images of cashed checks that were they cashed by TSC or NSC... or any kind of SRC# or LIN# on them to indicated whether it was cashed by TSC or NSC?
