LA OPINION (Editorial): The time is now!
|2010-11-16 | La Opini�n
The time is now! - La Opini�n - noticias locales, nacionales e internacionales desde Los �ngeles - impre.com (http://www.impre.com/laopinion/opinion/2010/11/16/the-time-is-now-222571-1.html#commentsBlock)
Democrats return back to a lame-duck Congressional session in which they have a majority in both chambers. This is the moment to make the effort to pass the DREAM Act and open up the path for hundreds of thousands of young people to enter the university or serve in the Armed Forces.
Major legislation on the agenda between now and the end of the year includes making permanent the Bush-era tax cuts, passing the fiscal year 2011 spending bill or at least passing a stopgap measure to continue to fund the government, extending unemployment benefits, and addressing cuts in Medicare payments to doctors.
There are many important issues on the floor and the position that will be taken by the Republicans is still unclear given they will have control of the House of Representatives in two months.
Despite this, we believe the DREAM Act must be added to the mix. In these past two years of Democratic control, the concerted push for comprehensive immigration reform never materialized. At a minimum, during these last weeks of legislative control, they should seek passage of legislation that would allow undocumented high school graduates � who have grown up in the U.S. � to continue their studies or to join the military.
Similar efforts a few months back failed because critics unjustly denounced the bill as an "amnesty," as if these young people were responsible for having been brought to the U.S. by their parents. Other critics charged that the bill would prove to be a magnet for immigrant parents to bring young children here. Such criticism ignores the real reasons for immigration.
This legislative session is filled with dozens of legislators who have either lost their reelection or are planning to retire. They have nothing to lose by doing the right thing and voting for a bill that will help the economy in the short and long term by preparing our country�s future labor force. And, at the same time, they will be strengthening the military.
Political savvy and determination will be needed to pass this legislation. Opportunities exist to attach it to other bills if it appears that it cannot be approved on its own. With so much at stake , the time to act is now!

My husband's employer told him that the 6 year H1 B stay cap has been eliminated since the year 2008. Is that true?
No. There is still the 6-year limit, unless the H-1B holder has reached a certain stage of the permanent residence process.

H1 with company (X) was denied on May 2008, but made appeal to it and its in the process.
during the same time
i have applied for H1 transfer to company (Y) through consular processing. I got approval.
If i go for Visa Stamping would it be a problem. Live around Ca. planning to go for Tijuana, Mexico.
also
Company (y) says it won't generate pay stubb unless u get visa stamped. Do i really need pay stubb(s) with
company(Y) in order to go for stamping.or its okay to go with company (X) paystubs.
My paystubs are still with company (x) till month of May 2008.
how good are chances of getting visa if im going for stamping in month of July, 2008
pls advice... what should i do in the situation i'm in

Those of you planning to reach the 485/EAD "heaven". Please have a look at this
link suggesting you apply for EAD 6 months in advance.
http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=1847c9ee2f82b010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCR D&vgnextchannel=1847c9ee2f82b010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD
Apply too early and you are screwed by an early approval that will render your EAD valid for just 6 months(my last 2 were approved within 2 weeks). Apply too late and risk unauthorised work and or having to get fired/stay off the job.
All this just weeks after they removed the ability to get an emergency 90 day EAD at the local field offices if they delayed more than 90 days.
The USCIS is getting very mean with those of us waiting in the legal queue in my view. A lot is going on behind the scenes, I hope we are not all made scapegoats of dumb policy in the end.

Hi,
I am currently on an H1-B (and also have a I140 approved) with company A. I accepted a job with company B, who started the process for my H1-B transfer by filing the LCA.
My employment with company A ends 01/31, but company B has still not received the LCA approval. If they do not receive it before 01/31, will I be out of status until they file the H1B transfer? Do I need to leave the country?:confused:
Technically, yes you will be out of status starting 02/01 until H1B petition from your new employer is received by USCIS. Yes you should leave the country as from Feb 1 you will start accumulating unauthorized presence which might adversely impact your Green Card and other future petitions including the pending H1-B.
Practically if H1-B is filed within a week or so after 1/31 then it is up to you if you'll like to take a chance by staying in the country.

Hey Congratulations Panama !
A week's time after approval is a good estimate for receiving the cards in the mail. So expect them by April 30 :)

My lawyer explicity told "NOT" to flipflop wven without me asking.
Same here. My lawyer specified NO "flip top". Does it matter, I guess not.

Since your attorney is not filing (No G28 is filed when you DIY). I did this and I got approval for both EAD/AP in a month's time.

Hi,
I am a B. Com, M. Com (1 yr) and CA from India, CPA (USA) with more than 12 yrs exp in accounting industry, including 7 yrs of post qualification (after CA) exp. - But even after all these qualifications, I was suggested by a leading law firm that I will not qualify under EB2 :mad: :mad: !!!!
If the position required a bachelors degree then you have problem !!!! What he (lawyers asst) said that you either need 4 yrs single degree or 3+3 yrs degree to qualify for EB2. He specifically said that 3+2 yrs degrees or 3+1 yrs (as in my case) does not qualify for EB2.
I have not yet filed GC yet though.
Hope this helps.....

Hi,
The last time I came back into this country, I used my AP as I didn't have my H1 stamped. My H1 is valid till 2010.
My EAD expired last month and my bumbling lawyer did not send in the I-485 copy and hence there was an RFE. So I still do not have an EAD approval.
Would it be safe to get paid this month or should I have my company process this month's salary after I get my EAD approved?

L1s don't visit these sites because most them don't apply for green card. L1s are majorly used by big companies like TCS, Infosys, etc. Those big corporates won't apply for GC. Very rarely based on relationship and long service some apply for GC.
I see lots of L1 bashing. In reality L1s are pitier than H1s. L1 cannot transfer their visa and change job as H1s do. They have to wait till H1 quota to open up for changing jobs. They run in a rat race to keep their manager happy to get better rating in their appraisal.
PS: I am on H1 status.
6 to 1...... maybe L1 guys don't visit this forum since they already got thier GCs....:rolleyes:
H1 loosers still hanging here.....

where did you read about this? would you point me to the source?
I always thought that till a decision has been made, you can work on a H1 renewal/ transfer
