We only talk about global warming, environmental polution, water pollution, air pollution etc etc.
Its time we start talking about "global though and emotion pollution".
Every house, group, town, city, state, country are all a collection of thoughts and emotions. If you could quantify these you could measure the amount of "waste" often with tremendously long half life periods that many of us are disposing into this pool. This is the greatest pollution from which infact all other pollutions even start to originate.
Our role during this life is to put some effort in trying to clean up this pool just like BP is now trying to clean up the oil mess.
How to start? stop being critical and avoid dissipating harmful thought about self and others:D:D:D

Well I didn't start using it, I was responding. And thank you no one needs your lecture.
Lecture is needed whenever the expert forgets. And you did use it first in this "discussion". Not mentioning past here. When at fault, just listen up to the music. And I repeat, it's not personal. Personally, I would like nothing better than associate in cooperative spirit and stop all childish bickering.
When Seniors like you get down to using expletives, you are doing something like what Manmohan did when fighting against Advani. He simply lost his own respect. Get me? I consider you as seniors. Dont let that balance be disturbed, for everyone's sake.

Include Sep approvals as well, they can’t use all the visas in the month of Aug it self, it never happened before (in fact they wasted thousands of visas by the end of the fiscal each year in the past). This is the first time they have determined (?) to use all the visas, don’t expect 100% success in the first attempt it self. The system has not been fine tuned yet to that level of success.
For Sep, the EB2 dates will remain same or might even move further few months. Oct bulletin will be the interesting one. If there are very little approvals during Aug & Sep, it will move back considerably. If there are so many approvals in the tune of 15-20k, then EB2 PD will go back slightly (say Jan 06) but will move forward at healthy rate. Come last quarter of 2008-09, there will be quantum leap again.
only the month of AUg approvals is going to validate or invalidate...but makes sense so far. ;-)

After reading the exchange of zoophilic and acrimonious emails this evening, it seemed like reading accounts of state assembly sessions back home. Well, we never miss a chance, do we? For a change, please read General Pace's testimony to the so called 'hearings' earlier today. Contrary to the visible and glaring episodes that stand out in our day today life being targetted upon as immigrants or wannabies, posmd's words are solemn and should encourage us not to lose hope: "If you notice, despite all the bad press about illegals, despite 9/11, the majority of americans are still pro legal immigrants, we are largely to credit for this, along with the pride they have in their forefathers who made the same journey". General Pace's testimony today is a sample supporting the above. Ghost, it was nice of you apologize for your 'list-rage'; hopefully, whatever be the intentions, ForeverGC will learn to see the spirit
that keeps us going, at least before he or she gets the green card ;-)

I believe people in the SV have more sense of host, sense of responsibility, and sense of rights, as immigrants are majority here.
Jaime, your thought of having one more rally in Silicon Valley is a good one but again you are going to have the same crowd..!!
People in neighbouring states of DC did not make it , you tthink they will make it all the way to west coast! very doubtful!!
We should aim at bringing in more people to this family as possible..
Looks like a simultaneous rally on a weekend will be very effective!
And this time for the rally we will carry one one slogan banners
'SHORTEN THE WAIT FOR LEGAL IMMIGRANTS' or something similar!
just a thought!

Based on last week's BusinessWeek article, I have a feeling that we will see an effort to restrict initial H1B applications in some way. That would be a good opportunity to push for allowing naturalization applications for people who have been on work visas for a long time (say 8-10 yrs?). Fighting for citizenship would have a stronger emotional dimension and may connect better with the American public. A direct filing for citizenship will work around retrogression by providing an avenue for people to move out of the GC queue.
That would be nice. Citizenship for people who have been on visa and been in the country legally for a number of years. But I doubt it will happen anytime soon.

As long as you have had a valid h1b peition approved for employer 1 and employer 2 while you worked for them you are FINE.
According to my lawyer there is nuthing like a h1b transfer. When someone decides to move to a new sponsor that new sponsor files for a h1b via the petition but nuthing gets transfered, they need to refer to old h1b just to prove thatyou are legal and have been maintaining legal status.
in your case Employer X did so but you never joined that employer so you are fine. USCIS can get back to that emplyer if they have not cancelled your h1b as they are liable to pay you by law.
For real as you had an approved petition (latest but not the greatest) from Employer X but did not join them you are fine as long as you were still holding a valid petition with Emp # 2. You should respond back to RFE stating that you were maintaining stauts via emp#2 and were offered a job by EmpX which you never accepted. As a proof you should sen copies of pay stub for enitre period and w-2 + peition and visa copies.
Hope this helps!:)

If existing members don't show the commitment to the meetings or whatever we organize, then how can we expect new members to do anything?
I feel weird even saying this, but guys don't you know that it is simple courtesy to let the host know in advance if you can't make it?
And anything more than 15 minutes late is just plain RUDE! Do we have to teach this?
I hear you, needhelp! I think every single chapter leader has felt this at some point.
I would like to clarify - anything beyond 0 minutes late is rude. I have a management position in my job, and if that happens at a meeting i'd set up professionally, they get a verbal lashing from yours truly.
It is highly disrespectful

I guess the cat is out of the bag. Yes, I got my greencard a few weeks ago. Yes, my PD is early 2004.
There are 2 current theories why:-
1. I'm very vocal in the media and lawmakers about the problem, and something made this happen (as my co-workers say "they gave it to you to shut you up")
2. I was a lucky one that was assigned a visa number in early June (when I applied for AOS) - it was approved when my PD was not current.
I'm not going anywhere, nothing has changed with the current policy. It is still broken. If for no other reason, the bizarre circumstances around my GC highlight more unpredictability and uncertainty in the whole process. I hadn't mentioned it before since it really isn't a big deal in the big picture.
Congrats.. and good to know that inspite of getting GC you have decided to stick with non-GC holders like us...

Re: Open Response for EB2vsEB3:
I think US need smart working people not software only working people. Most of these so called software programmers are not really skilled workers. I've seen anyone with little education can do their jobs. If anyone is suffering b'coz of EB3 i think they should consider different profession and be happy.
trying to add more fuel to the fire. Looks like you are neither smart nor software smart. You are just a "fused Tube Light"

Following the July2 fiasco, my 140 was sent to TX Service Center on July 10, received by them on July 11.
Not received Receipt notice yet. Anyone else who filed with TxSC in July get a receipt yet? Does only the lawfirm get a receipt or also the employer? How long has it been taking TxSC to send receipt notice in the month of July? llot of discussion about NSC but I didn't see any mention of TXSC.
My lawyer tells me there may be some clarification from USCIS next week about filing 485 with just a receipt number (from a cleared check) or with proof of Fedex delivery; for now confusion prevails about whether or not such a 485 application will be rejected. Lawyer is not sure if cleared checks will reach them before 4 weeks from the bank. They don't seem able/willing to find the eCopies of the checks on the bank website. Some people mentioned employer sends the check, i think the lawfirm does?
Wonder if anyone has any views on refiling 140, but concurrently with a 485 this time? Has anyone tried this? Does the Labor certification letter you personally got not count as original LC? Only the one sent to lawyer counts as orig?
Does USCIS callcenter entertain any calls to find out receipt number after 15 days? Anyone have a specific number for TX SC?
