I know many people working here in my city who are from TCS. TCS blatantly breaks rules and sends these people on L1 visas while paying them an Indian salary and a minimal per diem for their time in the U.S. They don't even get enough for renting a car and I see many of these poor guys walking from their apartment blocks to the office. It's good exercise (for one's physical health) but the intent of the company is exploitation and nothing else :mad:
In addition, I notice that many of these recruits are here not for long term jobs but for gaining enough knowledge so that those jobs can be outsourced back to the home country. That has started to make many of my American colleagues really mad. But it's the fault of the company, not these poor guys who don't have seem to have a clue what a bad deal it is until they arrive here.
Sad to say, Wipro, Infosys and the rest in their flock are no better.

I wish some group were working on getting attached in some bill a provision that lets the H-4s work. I thought we had a good chance because it is under discussion a bill similar to Bill S.2611 that would let the spouses of the Illegal workers regularized under Blue card status to also work so I assumed that a some point they were going to have a provision for the spouses of H-1Bs. I hope IV and QGA are doing something about this. If no group brings to the senators etc.'s attention that there is a part unattended regading the H-1B spouses right to work, nothing would happen. Here is what I am trying to say:
If S.2611 is going to be discussed in the senate/house, this will allow the spouse of the Blue card status worker (previously illegal worker and now regularized) to work for any employer -while the spouse is in blue card status-, shouldn't it be mentioned in the same law in the parragraph with the H-1B and dependandts provision that that the same applies for the H-1B spouses -that they could work for any employer while the H-1B status of the spouse is valid-? The L-1 spouses can work too so why do we H-4s have to suffer? Why nobody is advocating this?
This is the parragraph:
"... (iii) EMPLOYMENT- The spouse of an alien granted blue card status may apply to the Secretary for a work permit to authorize such spouse to engage in any lawful employment in the United States while such alien maintains blue card status. ..."

It is an irony that most people here who raised valid concerns have "red" reputation. I sort of agree that we should have posting guideline and if some body is contributing it does not give them right to bash others. All this extra push, inappropriate language and finger pointing is hurting IV in the long run. One reason of IV's popularity is xxxxx members (80 % free riders even if). I agree that this forum is also to discuss your immigration issues.
Here is what i suggest for moderators, IV Core, Administrators to enforce;
1) Guideline for posting messages, use of language on this forum
2) No personal attack in replies
3) Contribution messages restricted to moderators, administrators only
No body argues that IV is working for a great cause and i fully support IV and wish best of luck in its endeavors. I joined a month+ ago and may be with time i will be more convinced to fully participte in IV's agenda.

I am in exact same situation. The company that is going to sponsor my H1 checked with two attorneys and both said that I will need a fresh H1 in April07 and I can start working from Oct07. Even I never got to work on my earlier H1. I guess this is because you need previous paystubs for H1 transfer. Let me know if you hear otherwise from your attorneys.

I am worried if I would have any problems converting to H1 since I am practically out of work force since 2000.
I have 3 yrs worth of exp prior to moving to the US on H4 visa in 2000.
Do you think I would have any issues with getting H1?

Sbdol,
Our goal from these meetings is simple: to get the issue on the radar.
Remember usually when lawmakers/lawmaker district office staff hear "immigration" they think "illegal immigration." Our presentation is usually the beginning of their education -- we have no expectation that they have "deep" or any knowledge of the nitty gritty.
All we want is that they send our material to their Immigration aide in DC, and recognize that there is an issue out there.
BTW, sbdol what volunteer team are you on?
best,
Berkeleybee

My employer is not giving copy of my I140. With out I140 how to port it to an other job/employer etc ?
Can some on advise me !
I 140 is for the company and it is primary meant to prove that the company is in good rating/standings in the eyes of USCIS. The approved I140 will be with the company and all they do is inform you of the approval etc. It is not necessary for you to change other jobs using AC21.

Focus should be on creating jobs. For that US needs to allow skilled legal immigrants to stay.
Agreed, not all legal immigrants will become enterpreneurs and create jobs but I still think that contribution from skilled workers is more to the economy and has a much larger impact than that of illegal migrants!

This trend of cases filed at NSC and transferred to CSC and then back to NSC have not received FP notices yet.
Intrestingly, the cases being transferred from NSC to CSC and then going to TSC are getting the FP notices. Sparky_jones got it. I just read above that one other persons went to there too. Please update us when you receive the FP notice and I am sure you will receive it soon.
I am trying to track FP notices. Please visit this thread.

BTW, can you call and ask if you case is preadjudicated. In our case my #@$@ lawyer refuses call USCIS or allow us to initiate an SR (one of the reasons why we had no idea that we were stuck in namecheck)
ALIA post doesnt help India and China EB3's (i am EB3 too). Assuming that 50% of the people who pre adjudicated are from India with a 50-50 split between eb 2 &3. We cannot expect any movement because we have ~25k EB3's ready for approval with only 3-4k visas. Eb2's (I)could be in a slightly better situation by July '10 because of spillover from unused EB1's and EB2's. I am guessing that 12-15k EB 2's will benefit. The only sliver lining is that ROW's who had visa's available but were stuck due to processing delays will be relieved from the pain.
As per this everyone who got pre-adjudicated would be receiving their GC in FY2010. But, there are people from EB3I with PD as late as 2007 who got RFEs recently and got their cases pre-adjudicated( I am one of them even though my PD is March 2003 and when I called up NSC, they said my case was pre-adjudicated and waiting for a Visa number ).
With EB3I staying at 1 Nov 2001 when the new FY2010 quota starts in October doesnt match to what Ron Gotcher says.
Anyone have any opinion?

But, no receipt for me yet. July 2nd filer here as well.
Should I keep another set of 485 application ready, just in case if I don't hear about check cashing or receipt till august 15th ?
Is there any harm in filing the 485 again (just to be safe).... IF I don't get any indication of action on july2nd app ?
This is paranoa!!!!!!!! STOP already

Yes ... and that "something" is a billion dollar business model. Education is a big business here .. not to speak of billions spent by the students in housing, insurance, living cost etc. And if there is no H1 after studies, this source dries up .
Contrary to popular belief, most students studies on Self Funding basis .. paying huge out-of-state tuitiion. So the myth that US Tax payers are paying for education of International Students is not true. The miniscule high flyers who go to top schools, go for Ph D, Post Doc, tenure track proffesors etc already have the option to get GC through EB1.
If its money that lures them into action, so be it. At this point, the situation is so desperate anything that moves the queue quicker is fine by me.
