Dear Sirs/Madams,
Good morning!! With reference to your previous e mail talking about "living in US for 5 years, pay taxes and get a green card". Also, " living in US for 10 years get a citizenship". It reminds me that a few days ago, from the other forum, I see someone talking about the bill "HR264", there is several items in this bill. However, there is only one section in this bill mentioned about "granting green card to people who have stayed in US for 5 years or more". I do believe the chance to pass this bill is very very small because right now the economic recession is so deep that no one knows when it will be recovered.
Also, I know some people who have won the diversity visa lottery and get the immigrant visa to US to be the permanent resident and then stayed in US for another 5 years and get the citizenship.
But some people (for example like my situation) who have stayed in US and fully paid foreign student tuition fees as a foreign student for 10 years (6 years in several degrees then graduate and then back home and then come back to US to study another advanced degree for 4 years and total 10 years as foreign student) still cannot get the green card. After I finish my doctorate degree, I got a company sponsored me the H-1B visa but the quota is full and I pack all things back to my home country until now. So I just wonder when will "granting green card to people who have stayed in US for 5 years"and whether it will be true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder whether this 5 years only for people who have worked here for 5 years in
H-1B visa or not?????????
Good luck to all of you and thanks for everyone's attention!!
Sad to see how much you had to struggle, but I know and I'm one of them who are here for close to 10 years and paid taxes etc.. If 100,000 of us make the right noise, then we may be heard.
As someone here is saying, following a GC step before Citizenship makes BS to me. You have done whats needed to be a citizen (dont go by the book, doesnt even appear there is one). They have delayed it for no fault of applicants. So this is the way to correct it.
Lets say I am 10th grade student who invented a cure for cancer. Will you oppose if MIT gives me a hon. Doctorate. That may be an extreme example but what we are asking for is something much smaller and well-deserved. After 10-15 years, the only rule should be to look at the paystubs and criminal record. Not which company you worked for or how much you were **ed by X employer. The case must just be yours independent on any employer. PERIOD.
Current economic situation.. SHOW how you can contribute. There is something called timing,. so THIS is the timing to ask for Citizenship so that you can BUY HOUSES AND START COMPANIES.. and thats how you help America to come out of this.

We are in US for past 7 years in H1B. Since the priority dates are current now we are ready to file I485.
3 years back my wife's status went out of status for 7-8 months when my employer renewed the visa's they forgot to do H4 and we didn't noticed it.As soon as we found it our attorneys did the Amended H1 and got her H4 status back to current.Since then her status is current..will there be any issue because of that when we apply 1485,EAD for her.
Please let me know ...
Thanks

Counting time after I140 approval towards citizenship proposal is already on our table for things to consider as a campaign. For Campaigns like this, we will need massive support than what we currently have. Even recent greencard holders can benefit from it.
So the first step before we undertake any big project is to get more membership base.
So let us first figure out ways in which we can get more people involved on IV. Without massive participation no campaign, letter/lobby/phonecall etc will work. We need to really go out of our way and spread the word around so that everyone that is stuck in this immigration mess can join this movement.
I know IV is just for employment based, but I believe other categories of people also are victims of "Adjustment Of Status" delays and they will and can benefit from this proposal. I guess a broad based coalition is possible. There are people with political muscle that benefit from this development (Latino Votes).
Is it a good idea to reach out to other immigrant groups ?
Just my 2 cents.

Restrictions on H1B is definitely not going to help retain jobs in America. More technnical jobs will be outsourced. My friend work for a TARP company and they are directed to move more technical jobs to offshore. The raid and other things what they are doing now will certainly prevent fraud.

Is there any provision in any of the upcomming immigration bills that allows for "Ability to file for I485 even with visa number unavailability.". I know that
some of the provisions in Hagel (S. 1916, 1917, 1918, & 1919) Specter (unnumbered draft) bills have provisions for removal of numerical limits on adjust of status for people who have an advanced degree from US.
But is there any provision in any of the immigration bills which allows for "Ability to file for I485 even with visa number unavailability." like the one that was in s 1932. This would be easy to pass as Green card numbers would stay the SAME and no major modification is done to the existing law

Below are the list that I have from my lawyer to prepare my I-485 :
1. for Evidence of status you need a Copy of Last Entry I-94
non immigrant arrival/departure record, showing your admission
to the US and current status. (Front and back, make sure the date is
clear to see)
2. To show that you are always in status while you are in US you will need
Copies of all immigration related documents from USCIS
(such as I-20, OPT, H1B, H4 approval notice, or other status)
3. Copy of Birth Certificate
(need translate & notarize if not in English)
4. Copy of Marriage Certificate if you are married
(need translate & notarize if not in English)
5. Copy of Passport pages with non immigrant visa
(including all passports you have used since the last entry you need to
copy all the stamp you had on the passport. Again this is to show the
last time your in you US and to make sure you are always in status)
6. I-693 (Medical Exam)
(You can dial 1-800-375-5283 to choose the physician list)
you will required to show a proof that you have take MMR, Varicella, Tetanus and hepatitis B
if you can't show any proof they will required you to take it on their office and it will cause you quite a lot money ( you can take
the vaccine earlier on your family/ regular dr. office and could get covered by you insurance) it could save you $300 per person.
the mandatory test you have to take at their office is tb test, blood test
for HIV and syphilis and regular phisical test. once you have all vaccine
and the mandatory test they should gave you the seal envelope to send to USCIS along with your other document and they will give you a copy as well.
7. If you apply for your family member you will need
I-134 (Affidavit of Support) stamp by Notary for each family member
8. Employment Verification Letter
Employement letter on the letter head of the petitioning employer
which confirms that the job on which visa petition is based is still
available to you. The letter must also state the salary that will be paid.
9 . Photos (2*2 color front-view passport photos)
*2 for each I-485, additional 2 for each I-131,
additional 2 for each I-765
10 Fee Payment made to USCIS (1 per applicant)
$325 for each I-485 filing fee
$70 for each Fingerprint fee
$170 for each I-131 filing fee (if apply for Advance Parole)
$180 for each I-765 filing fee (if apply for Employment Authorization) .
Hope this list is help for those who is ready preparing their document.
THANKS FOR ALL SUPPORT. I HAVE TWO KIDS 13 AND 14 YEARS. DO I NEED TO FILE I-765 FOR THEM?

Why they need name check when they have finger print? Name can be change any time where as finger print cant be.
Not only that. but the law and regulations does not require name check for I-485! Only for naturalization. What the USCIS and FBI doing is illegal. Sue them, that's the only way they will understand that they are wrong.
The decision to check reference files for FBI name check was made in December 2002 because N-400 was approved for a Hamaz member. The person's name did not have a hit in main files, but did have a hit in reference files. That's why the USCIS requested FBI to check reference files for naturalization applicants. FBI however decided to check refernce files for ALL requests. By law, background criminal investigation is required only for naturalization and asylum!

Correct me if there is a misunderstanding due to culture differences.
The flowers are by no means a complement. They pass them to other people and basically, they are forwarding the shame to them as well. Whoever receives it would feel offended. Don't you think so? :rolleyes:
If this is not the paramount of their stupidity, I do not know what else is. Oh wait, it is USCIS... who knows what other crazy thing they may do. :D
This is just getting better and better... Make sure get a screen print for future reference. Maybe a message should be attached to the flower too so that no matter who receive it, they will know who and what that is for. :D

I already took Vonage world phone. I am happy with it. However, I happened to see somewhere in the thread about Lingo offering india calling even through the mobile. That had me give a second thought on switching over to Lingo.
However, when I read the fine print on the lingo site, it mentions you cannot call Mobile phones in India. This catch makes me go crazy. Can some one confirm how are they handling with this constraint. Is that still a good option to switch over vonage to lingo based on this single feature?
Thoughts are welcome...

Lost in all this is the fact that Punjabi wants to sell his house not because he cannot afford it anymore, but because he wants to move to a different city to a higher paying job and can't be bothered to take responsibility for his failed real estate venture. He could have done the ethical thing and stayed in his present job and paid off his loan but he is choosing not to. And who does he blame for his situation? The concept of the "American dream". So the fact that he wants to shirk his responsibilities in favor of foisting his own debt onto the rest of the country isn't his own fault, it's the "American Dream" that's making him do this. It's not exigent financial circumstances that are causing him to foreclose, it is greed and shortsightedness (colloquially known as "The American Dream"). Greed and shortsightedness already caused him to go 20K under the water. And they will now make him screw up his own credit history. If someone cannot learn from one mistake, I say let him keep making mistakes. He will soon find out how difficult life in the US can be if you don't have a good credit history. As for the burden on us taxpayers, hey, we've been spending 10 billion a week for the past 5 years dropping bombs on people, what's a mere 20K?
LOL.
Something tells me that it is not 20k. It would be 100K if an actual sales is attempted. Still much much lower than 10 billion a month:)
