While doing some ad-hoc research after watching Valkyrie, I discovered this interesting bit of U.S. immigration history and couldn't help but be amazed how nobody seems to know or talk about United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Bhagat_Singh_Thind).
The Luce-Celler Act of 1946 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luce-Celler_Act_of_1946) was proposed by Republican Clare Booth Luce and Democrat Emanuel Celler in 1943 and signed into being by President Harry Truman on July 2, 1946, granting naturalization rights to Indian Americans (and Filipino Americans) and re-established immigration from India (and the Philippines).
Food for thought...

Everything is done only for illegals now a days... why should the politicians do anything for EB immigration for legally tax paying immigrants ?
I don't know who is worse the democrats or the republicans ...
Democratic party is actually horrible when it come to skilled imigrants. In the past the GOP have done for skilled folks like AC21 ets. DNC is for Unions (who oppose the H1B/EB people) and illegals (who like to keep us hostage for amnesty bills).

If I work on EAD for company XYZ then will I loose my H1B with company ABC?
If company 'ABC" is a consultant company then..make a deal with them and work thru them for XYZ for 2-3 months and take transfer to xyz.
Otherwise you have no other option than using EAD.

Technically No. But you never know what USCIS will ask for

The funny part is that I did use premium process and still took them 4 months...apparently they had made a mistake and process it as non premium and still took the extra $1,000... Im not sure if I am having bad luck or what else to think.
So I emailed Immigration and asked them about the 1 day H1b visa hoping they would tell me they made a mistake, but their answer was that it was not a mistake, that in fact they gave me 4 months and 1 day. But how did they give me 4 months and 1 day? I couldnt work during the 4 months I spent waiting for their answer, how is that the same thing? I know there is a mistake somewhere along the road, but I dont know how to address and/or what my possibilities are...
Also, along with my bad luck PERM was denied a couple of weeks ago because it was not signed by me. The PERM got audited while I was out of the country last year so my lawyer at the time sent a revised copy of it but I couldnt sign it because I wasnt in the country, (this was all explained in a letter we sent along with the package). I sent an appeal a couple of weeks ago and now Im waiting to hear from them.
My case has become very complicated! Any suggestions?

I was worried about the Immigration status with the FHA loan processing. Glad it's not an issue.
Still debating whether to refinance via FHA or wait for a few months till the house prices are better and do a conventional loan. The FHA MIs are quite steep in my case ($20K upfront + $350 per month)

I feel there is no better country than India in the long run..believe me!!!
thats correct , india is booming right now and it will only go up
So i think that even if we succeed in getting the green card , we should always have one option to going back.

Client forcing you is very typical.
Here is an option to consider: can your employer (who I am assuming is a small desi firm) file your GC though another sister firm (not unusual) in EB2. Assuming that you get it, and retain your PD, you should be able to get your GC within a year if there is no audit in labor / 140. Remember in EB2 the date for Indian is Jan 05 and your PD is before that.
Assuming that you can't keep PD if employer withdraws 140; I would recommed going that route even if you have to find another client.
Also, check with an attorney to find out about PD as you may be able to keep it even if 140 is withdrawn. In that case you can join any company (even your client ) and start GC through EB2.

My Employer is also threatening me that if I ask him for salary then he will lay me off and immediately send me back to India.
can he do like this ?
Yes they need to give you lay off notice officially in paper and give you plane ticket to India.
You can file the complaint and once they give you ticket to India , you can available that to go to India.
In fact H1Bs shouldn't have been approved for your employer in first place. Obviously in your case the client is delaying payment but you employers need to have the
working capital to pay you even if the client is not/delaying payment.
This was a problem/abuse with the small consulting companies aka body shoppers for over a decade now. It seems that USCIS is eventually cracking down on this.

I started shooting rodeo last year with my Nikon D70. The lighting at the rodeos I am shooting is very poor. Last year I shot with a Tameron AF Aspherical LD 28-200mm f3.8 to 5.6. I was able to get some good shots but mostly I was disappointed. I shot up to 1600 ISO in manual, with the lowest f stop possible for the zoom used, auto white balance, AF-C, single area & dynamic area AF mode, and experimented with shutter speeds from 1/60 to 1/500. I was very displeased with the results I got. On the 1/60 end I got to much blur and trying to stop the action the results were to dark. So I invested in a Nikon Speedlight SB-600. Occasionally I would get a could shot, but I almost always get red eye or the horse or cattle eyes are solid white from the flash. I even tryed to fill in the shadows with flash on manual at 1/64. I still get the white animal eyes. This year I bought a Nikor 50mm f1.8 lense. The lighting was very poor, but most of the pictures were better than last year. I am still not pleased with the quality though. I shot with and without flash. Without the flash pictures were still to dark even at 1.8 and had to be digitally enhanced. I shot some at 800 and 1600 ISO. The images are just to grainy. Any one got any advise. Here are four examples from about 2200 shots from Fri & Sat.

Hi,
I am currently in the 6th year of my H1B. My visa is going to expire in at the end of December. Is it too late for me to start applying for the green card? If it is not too late, what is my status going to be after December if I do apply for the green card now? Also, I have heard that I have to apply a year before my visa expires, is it too late now? Please help! Your response is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Keith
it's not too late. ask your lawyer to get labour thru perm. it'll take about 2 months and then you can do I140 in premium which takes 15 days. you can then get a 3 yr extension.

Most of people file taxes jointly and so I am wondering if it becomes an issue for spouse on H4 about false info on income.
If your wife is on H4 she has no income hence she qualifies for free medicaid insurance. provided you fill out the forms the right way.
And there is a seperate Health insurance sponsored by government for kids below 18 years. based on your wife's Medicaid, your child can qualify for that insurance in your state.
You might need to buy insurance for you.

I had written senator Feinstein about retrogression sometime last year. A response came 2 weeks later:
"As of today federal healthcare is available to undocumented immigrants only in cases of emergencies. Undocumented immigranst are a drain on federal resources. Blah blah blah........." Bull ****
True Feinstein seems to be least sensitive to immigrant woes. Her husband is a rich investment banker so I guess she is more business friendly rather than grassroots friendly.
Senator Boxer had replied
" I believe every citizen should have a say in the country. I value your opinion and can assure you that it will be taken into consideration during my work in the senate on this topic"
Much more polished. However it seems these are stereotype responses and I think senators do not read these emails. This is a sophisticated way of saying "Dont lecture me.... Mind your own business" This is how in America...
That's certainly a lot better than the "spam" i got from Senator Feinstein.
I just got some *#&$ about thanking me for supporting her blue card and AgJOBS initiatives, with not a mention on tackling retrogression issues.
Hardly a huge surprise, but I'm writing back

Be fast u only got a month ....
Get in touch with a good attorney, call shusterman.com and get an hour of consultation charges for u.
Tell him the situation, give him the two options. He will point you in the right direction. Remember July is the only month you have a chance. August and retrogress can kick in for Indians.
Let me add one more option to the above 2. Talk to your employers thru whom you got the approved I-140 and ask them to allow you file the I-485 since GC is for future employment u don't have to be working for them for filing I-485 now once 6 months are over with the 485 filed you can port it to ur current employer. Email me if u have questions dr_irshad2001@yahoo.com
Good luck & hurry ...

my PD is nov 2005 so I guess we will be waiting to apply for I-485 for a while (perhaps, 3-4yrs) :cool:
