Aristotle ... I think you are new to the Forum.
It is widely known fact that Members may be even reluctant to answer the same question again and again ... but unless a legislation is passed , PD will not move.
Fact is many of us are in a bad state for the options we have selected in our lives.
There is an organization like IV which is trying to help all of us. Infact IV members consist of people whose priority dates have been retrogressed for a long long time.
Also past 2 years (yes 2 years !!), some bills have been passed in only in Senate and hence fully did not become a law.
Hopefully something will happen and give us relief. My advise , don't forget to help IV where you can.

I work for a medium sized (employing about 500 employees in USA, another 2000 ouside USA), public (New York Stock Exchange) listed, business technology consulting company, which has been making losses for last 3 years. My I-140 was filed last month. Do I have to start worrying?

Lets move on and focus on this main topic...
Here are my observations.. Correct me if I am wrong..
1. L1 option for IT is essentially killed
2. Small IT companies will limit the headcount to 50 per company. It doesn't cost much to have more than one company. So no major changes to H1B Desi companies.
3. Most of the big American companies will not offer new H1B with 180 days, since most of them would have had layoffs.
4. Most IT companies will start spending a lot on lawyers. So they will be rich. There will be lot of audits.
5. Companies will complete PERM and I140 before getting a guy onsite, only if people are really interested in coming to USA any longer.
6. Need more clarity on where H1B outsourcing will be stopped...
Good recap. This bill is not about liberating employees. This bill is to kill H1Bs and L1s irrespective of whether the company is a consulting company or a direct employer.
Net result ? more outsourcing. Big outsourcing firms have enough experienced employees on their payroll to do outsourcing effectively.
If this bill passes, it will be a shameful day for USA.

Hello:
The company I am working with doing business for 40 years (less than 40 employee) and as per my lawyer, financially very good. I hired the lawyer and employer directly gave him financial docs. I am only one person with H-1 in this company's history and working for 4 years. Got labor approval on PERM EB2 (MS+1) and did concurrent filing with I-140 premium processing.
I received RFE regarding company's ability to pay. We sent tax files for FY 2005 (contains oct '05 to Oct '06) for being PD of Nov '06 and W2 for 2006 which showed 6k more than offered wage. Company started paying me offered wage one week after the PD and offered wage is 3k more than prevailing wage. RFE specified to show ability to pay by showing 2006 tax return or audited financial statement by 12 weeks. Any of this will not work as tax file will be prepred on Nov '07 for FY 2006 and audited finan. stat. costs a lot of money. My company has no clue and just planning to write a letter that they will not able to provide before Nov 07 and already submitted tax file upto Oct 06 which could be enough to find the financial status. They talk to their CPA and he advised to do so.
I am really not very fimilar with all these issues. What should I do as company is not able to provide above 2 things that USCIS asked for? Can I send my paychecks even started getting paid offered wage after one week?
Appreciate you feedback. Thanks,

So you made the problem statement which every one around here knows. What are your action items for poor souls like me who do not know how to take on, a person with successful TV show , using a placard and a megaphone ? What would be your solution ?
I think WD already posted the action items - questioning the radio shows fairness and if they feel they have a responsibility in not inciting hate crimes toward immigrants both of which are very good points to raise. Lou Dobbs already has a huge platform from which he is spewing venom on immigrants and the last thing he needs is another medium - radio - to carry it even more.
GC is a pre-req to becoming a citizen and once you become one it is hoped that you would voice your opposition even more against hate-mongers like Lou. What he is indulging in is despicable - using the average American's economic insecurity and playing it off againts immigrants - & one does need to speak out if not for yourself atleast for others that can't do it themselves so WD is doing the right thing urging people to call in.

I would like to share my experience and it may help some people here.
My H1 was sponsored by company A when I was working with them on OPT. I paid $3000 for H1 filing and attorney fees and company A gave me the H1 approval notice only after I signed an agreement that I would work for atleast one year with them.
Afetr 1 month of my H1 approval, I got a better job offer from company B and I got the H1 transferred. I notified my client and company A who threatened to revoke my H1, take me to court etc etc. They also withheld 4 weeks of my pay.
After joining company B, I filed a complaint against company A with DOL that they withheld my salary and also they demanded H1 fees from me. After 2 weeks of that complaint, my salary was deposited into my account and DOL was looking into my complaint about H1 fees. This case finally got resolved last week after about 18 months, when DOL finally persuaded company A to pay $3000 back to me.
I would request everyone who is a victim of these blood sucking employers to
take every possible action against them. There's a very little chance that they would go to court because they are themselves involved in gross irregularities.
Hats off to you. We can clean these bodyshops if everyone follows this path.

Net Income is calculated after expenses (such as administrative and Salaries) have been deducted.
Net Income = Gross Income - Expenses
It is on Net income that the company pays taxes.
A company does not pay anyone from their net income. This is the profit.

Company tax returns can only show the NET INCOME . You need an Audited Financial Statement prepared by a CPA to show NET ASSETS
Box F in 1065 form has TOTAL ASSETS field. Form 1065 is for the Partnership firm. Why not other companies tax return will not have this field?. I just got an RFE on my I-140 requesting 2006 tax return.

K , I see two views by two different types of folks.
View #1: This system sucks. Its not fair and just. America is a great country and land of immigrants and we chose to immigrate here. Lets work on this issue so that I myself and folks such as myself now and going forward do not have this problem. I will do what ever it takes. I personally feel that regardless of the outcome, it gives immense self satisfaction to commit to meaningful cause. Others might not feel so, but all of us believe that this problem needs to be solved and do what ever we can do.
View #2: Some people come resigned with the idea that they will be looked down. Now My question is what do you want to accomplish on IV if you do not want to work on the issue, If you do not want believe in the core principles of this organization. If you think that immigrants are treated like dirt and again if you believe in that and because you are an immigrant in this country, you should have been putting up with a treatment like dirt, do you have an iota of self esteem?? Seriously, If you really believe what you are saying why do you even want to be here now? or why do you even want to have a backup plan that will again make you a immigrant some where else?? $$$ over ride self esteem Huh? In the name of discussion you want to shape the opinion of people who do not talk much. Kudos to your agenda. You keep spitting out your rhetoric that immigrants are dirt but cannot make arguments that hold water for a single second.
I compared the president to show that immigrants and sons of immigrants can have a life that is quite opposite of what the OP said. Just because you or some one you know treated some one bad does not mean that every one treats others the same. B T W, There are others in congress who are born out of country as well and there are governors born some where. stop smoking too much
B T W, All of us know that immigration in the US is broken and we want to do our best to fix it. You can chose not to do so. Did some one say that you have to get a life because you chose not to do so? Yes, there are many other countries that have smoother immigration process. Every one is welcome to explore them and you did. In fact, IV wiki has sections dedicated for immigration to other countries. You can chose to develop them or can chose other wise. Just because you have explored other options and found some thing that suits your situation does not mean every plain jane can and will find one. You expect the US congress to get its act right, modify the immigration system and have all of us walk on a red carpet. That would be ideal. Even I will love that. As that is not the case and some of us has chosen to work with the US Congress, you consider us folks who dont have a life. It comes down to the difference that you dont want to work on this issue and have things served on a silver platter, while many of us want to work and fix this issue. Rant as much as you can but all of your arguments contradict each other
Mr Brown,
Should I say that all of you those who bought homes and are having a life bought a home with 0% down and interest only loan so that you can save your taxes now and if your GC does not come through in 5 years, you will walk out with out any loss as you made hefty deductions and haven't paid single penny towards the mortgage and simply go to Timbuktu or Krakovia. I will not!. Just because you chose to buy a home and have a life does not mean that others dont. Every one lives their own lives. Those who dont buy a home live a life of their choice. Stop judging people. GC was not a risk or hindrance to you in buying a home but could be for Joe the Analyst. You might have deep pockets, Joe the analyst might not or have other commitments. Coupled with the lack of GC, his risk might be more than some one else.

NSC is known to create head ache for everyone. This another case of their incompetence.
1> This H1 petition was approved 1 year ago. I have the I-797 Notice with me. Then why did they re-open this case after 1 year of approval?
They would have re-opened the case based on some evidence that became available to them after the approval or simple because they don't have work to do. I'm just speculating, in such cases they issue a NOIR requesting additional information. Can you post the NOIR? The intent is to curb H1B and greencard and NOT providing good service.
2> My I-131, I-485, I-765 applications has been accepted and chqs encashed. What happens to them now?
Greencard is filed for a permanent future job, you dont need a H1B to get one. If you get your EAD, you are SAFE whatever happens to your H1B as you can continue to work on EAD.
If the above is regarding your employer, beware they might start reviewing your approved I-140.
If you acquire 180 days and I-140 remain approved and you use AC21 to join another employer or if your I-485 gets approved. USCIS cannot do anything - Nada.
3> What about my H1-transfer which is pending?
All that will happen in the worst case is your H1b will get revoked. You can take a couple of months vacation and come back on your approved I-131 and work on EAD till you get your greencard.
Don't go nuts, keep cool; The best is yet to come!

I don't know why but we tend to be satisfied with lsmall benefits...
I agree with you "something (EAD and AP) is better than nothing"
But i bet you ..you will find your self in the same situation of agony and endless waiting for the final Green card.
I bet most of the people don't use your ead and AP as it puts you in a gray "Adjustment of status". They are good to have though. But you will see...how painful it is to decide to use them or not..
What i want to say is that being able to apply for EAD and AP is not the end of the battle..you will be stuck in a depressing situation waiting for the final green card.How do i know? .. I went through it...waiting for GC for the past 4 years.
I dont know its FBI or its just the USCIS incompetence but waiting in the final stage is horrible. Every time you travel you are scared...AP as for as my lawyer goes IT does not guarantee 100% entry in to the country.
After you apply for AP its only 1 year H1 increments.
What i am saying why dont we try for the overall improvement of the GC processing. Why dont we be firm about not wasting the GC numbers and recapturing the unused numbers.
We had a small revolt (peaceful way) and its successful.We dont want to stop there.
LETS FIGHT FOR THE OVERALL IMPROVEMENT OF THE GC PROCESSING
I hope you guys are with me..looking for your comments
we seized on an opportunity and won a battle.
the war is still to be one.
there is no way this over. we will fight till retrogression ends.

There is a funding drive in this other thread towards reimbursing the administrative costs of IV.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/sh...ad.php?t=10708
Could you please pledge an amount ?
I have very high regards for Aman due to his dedicated efforts. 64K he spent is the big big amount as an individual.
I suggest, lets have a request to Bollywood artist to organize some shows at USA in benefit of IV (they may give us some discount). We shall pay back 63K to Aman (IV can keep 1k as his contribution).
Other option is 630 people should contribute $100 each to pay back Aman. I received my green card and ready to contribute $100 to this account. I already contributed $700.
Thanks
