I suspect that the sponsors of this bill aren't aware that some children who entered legally also need a break.
It may be worth writing to Dick Durbin and some of the co-sponsors asking for favorable treatment for children who are here legally. Write a letter and send it via Fedex/Priority Mail as this is being considered next week.
The text of the bill is here: http://rs9.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:SN02075:

this sounds more like, "Ok so you say the glass is half full, why is that great now?"
It is a feel good factor; you still want to be cynical, go right ahead, no one can take that away from you.
Yeah I get that the money will be transferred from the Social security system here to the Indian Govt system.
My point is it does not do a damn thing for us workers personally. That money will dissapear into a dark hole in the Indian Gov't coffers instead of a dark hole here, further as the rules stand, I have a slim chance of getting the money from here through social security payments when I turn 65 even if I am in India. Try that within the money in Indian gov't hands.
On the other hand, it makes the Indian gov't allign with corporate america, as they all have a vested interest in a Temp. worker program such as H1b absent green cards. Which will be a win win for all concerned except us.
So I repeat my question..................Why is this good again?

LS is not illegal until the employers sell the labor. LS is legal channel where in employer fill the position with somebody else, if primary applicant it not available for some reason.
But some employers are exploiting the law and selling it. This is ILLEGAL. I agree with that LS is LEGAL until it goes in a legal way. But selling or getting other benefits/gifts from the employee is completely ILLEGAL.
Since USCIS cannot find who is selling and who is not selling, they banned it. It is a good move from USCIS, but it is too late. Too many got like this and enjoying the benefits leaving other poor souls who are waiting in line from years.

Thx so much I got it..
For the "Class of ADmission" - if I have entered US on AP, do I enter "Parolee"

Hi Sanbaj,
Congratulations for getting your GC !!
What were the PD's on your two I140's ? Were you able to port the PD of EB3 to EB2 ?
Both were EB2 from the same company. PD on one was Oct/2006 and the other was Feb/2002.

I beg to differ with your opinion about using the walmart bags are trash bags.
One of the reason that I can think of is...
There are apartments where kitchens are so small where you are forced to buy small trash cans and stuff them under the sinck.The best way to fit these can's is with Shopping Bags, not with 5 or 10 gallon's garbbage bag.
Brahmam and Company -
This is the height of Frugality sir :eek: . Contribute something to this society instead looting(??) everything from here and wiring to Bank of India or whatever:p .There should be a limit to this nonsense questions to be posted for Members to Read and Answer. Please grow up in life.Few Dollars here and there will not make this World upside down nor will it buy huge real estate lands in your Place. Also, buy Trash-bags for throwing Trash instead of use Walmart plastic to throw into Dumpsters.Some in my Apts do that all the time inspite of Property Managers advising against doing it.you fall in this Category.
To answer your Question, Walmart is the cheapest for anything .Period.Why?? Please see this Documentary 'Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price '.
I'll give you the last call to burn your ego.:cool:

I think they have to pay the minimum wage as declared in their petition.
But I doubt whether they even send those employees on assignments. I guess they process these H1s as a carrot to retain the employees or to preprepared for any future assignments (they may not even come and the visas are never used)...
Wish there is a different category of visas for outsourced kind of work so that H1s can be used by America based companies and H1 is not seen in such a bad light.
Having a different category of visa sure sounds good.
However, it would be really difficult to implement as these BIG consulting cos will easily show proof that not all deputed in US are responsible for offshoring the work.
Another point would be that these cos charge a very high billing rate for those deputed in US and the clients (US companies, who hire these consulting cos) usually end up paying the same rate (or even more). However, the poor employees get probably just 50-60% of their billing rate.
I do have a regard for these cos, they have changed the landscape of our indian economy, but they have exploited their employees to the hilt.

As our members get greencards, we are happy for them and wish them good luck for future. Please continue to support Immigrationvoice and visit this site to help others waiting in line. If there are sufficient greencard holder members, we can even take up issues confronting greencard applicants in future.
This thread is to start a discussion and hear experiences from members who have received their greencard. Please write –
- How has greencard changed your life after receiving it?
No Material Change, except i can go to Canada on business trips without any hassle and dont have to get fingerprinted while re-entering US
- What did you do on the day you received it?
Since i had gotten the email from USCIS that its in mail - so no surprises
- How did the long wait upset your life?
I only waited 7 months - so no upsets - even before my GC was filed - i was in US for only about 2 years or so - so no big deal - in those 2 years - my employer did not discriminate in terms of promotions/ pay hikes etc. I had bought a house even before my GC was filed and spouse could work because of my L1 status
- How did immigrationvoice help you during this long wait?
Not Applicable since IV is not really focused (and rightly so) on my GC category
- Would you like to continue your support to immigration voice and help others waiting?
Sure - some of my closest friends are in H1B and i see how the long wait affects them and their families - having said that - i like to make up my mind (rightly or otherwise) about which initiatives are good or bad/ effective or ineffective- so as and when I see initiatives i get excited about like flower campaign, letters to various lawmakers etc- happy to help
- Any advice for everyone?
GC and Citizenship should not prevent anyone from pursuing their career and personal dreams - if not US - there are other countries where your skills would be welcome. Personally - i have given priority to career and family life ahead of visa issues and rest has automatically fallen into place
Once anyone received his greencard, please update the IV tracker too. We like to see how many members in IV are greencard holders and what is the current trend of approvals in our membership
