I am on 8th year H-1B extension and my labor certification application
is pending at PBEC for 4 years..
Got Laid off....from my current employer...What are my options ?
a) Can I get an H-1B from another employer and apply thru PERM.
b) If I apply thru PERM from another employer B and my labor is approved from my current employer A(the one that laid me off)...can I apply I-140 from the employer A ?
Guys...Pls let me know you thoughts ...It is very critical for me...
Thanks.

If there any IV volunteers around DC, it would good to go his DC office and if possible meet the congressman itself to explain our case.
I am willing to do it. I did call up the local senators and congresspeople about supporting the bills. I have asked the GM of my company to give me some political contacts (am still waiting on him) since he had recently gone to DC to do some lobbying for small businesses. Let me check in the DC/MD forum and figure out who we should target/meet.

Does anybody know how long an H1B visa can remain valid (including grace period) after a layoff ? What I know, is an H1B technically becomes invalid the day you stop rendering your services to your employer. The firm's lawyer suggested me to file for B1/B2 visitors visa to avoid going out-of-status.
If I do that, can I transfer my H1B visa (from B1B2) once I get a job? Or will I have to struggle against some quota?
Can anybody suggest a good lawyer in New York City or near Hoboken, NJ who can help we with all this? I tried contacting Cyrus Mehta, but he seems to be booked for another week.
Btw, thanks for the overwhelming response to my request for resources to find a job. While I am evaluating my options, please keep me in consideration for any openings that you see.
Thanks.

What ever you have pointed out is very valid and no doubt, shows the injustice. However, considering the present situation following are my thoughts.
1. Let's call for an action item for all those IV members whose LCs are still in BECs
2. Try to present the case to USCIS in a truly meaningful way about the those individuals still waiting for LC approvals
3. Try to get an exception so that they can file 140+485 even after Aug17th.
(atleast this is not an impossible thing to USCIS to accept just few thousand when compared to hundreds of thousands)
I strongly believe in IV from day 1 and quickly take an action item first of all to come up with list of the individuals (as many as possible).
Then, let's approach USCIS (i don't know how to do it at this time, but open this for some good ideas) to get an exception for those cases still to come out of BECs
I know so many of us have already filed for 485 or busy to file before Aug17th, but PLEASE LET'S DO SOMETHING.
Personally even though i applied for 485, i'm all for it and justice MUST BE DONE
Subject: Injustice :mad: for people with priority dates in '02, '03, '04 etc. who are still waiting for their labor certs to be processed using the traditional process - we want to file a case against DOL's lethargy - Let us join together and file a case against DOL and bring justice to this unjustified system.
The manner in which the backlog reduction center have been processing the
labor certs seems to be very unfair for people like me and others who have been affected. I know of cases with priority dates as late as 2005 that have gone through the traditional process and have been approved already. And there are cases like mine and others with much earlier priority dates that haven't been done. This is very unfair and unjustified. It is like we have been standing in the queue for several hours and a person who came much later than me just sneaked into the queue and got his service done while I am still waiting for my turn. Also the fact that now the UCIS has made the filing of I-485 current adds more insult to the injury that I and others in my position have endured.
The fact that the I-485 was made current and then withdrawn was made a big deal and people wanted to file cases, whereas the plight of people like me who are still waiting for the labor cert to be cleared has been totally
ignored, inspite of the fact that people who applied for labor much later
have been approved through the traditional process.
We want to file a case ASAP with the DOL or other relevant
authority regarding this issue and the unfair way of the process that we
have been subjected to. So can all those folks who have been affected by this join and voice your support? We shoud put up this fight because this is in no way justified. Why would it be?
The next steps should be:
- Get all of the support we need from all affected folks ASAP
- Get in touch with a lawyer who can help us to prepare the case
- File the case in a court against DOL
- Make sure we get justice
Please join and show your support. Please help!!!

kaka,
You have so far been saying "nobody will get GC... it is a scam..."
Now that there is a chance someone will get GC with a new House, do you still go with your "win-win" stand?
Will you change your course too and say something new?

As Chanakya is still getting rave reviews :) let me break this down a little more. OPs gripe can be broken into three categories:
1. What is IV doing with all the money collected.
2. What is IVs specific plans for the future/ what has it done in the past
3. Donor forum and general compliants about the concept
# 1. I think trusting IRS and CPA will go a long way. I am not aware of any donations being collected by IV on personal names. Have you sent any money to an individual and not IV the org ?
# 2. About us lists items that IV has done in the past. Do they meet your expectations ? Maybe yes or maybe no. What does advocacy mean ? For both the points, doing some research will help. Why we did not have stellar succeses with past campaigns ? Advocacy, how quickly can we be successful. Google and find out.
#3 Donor forum. Search the forums and find out how much money was collected by campaigns mentioned by ChanduV. Pennies. Two different reasons in my opinion as to why the donor forums have been created. 1. obviously to collect donations 2. the section has 'premium' content like regular updates, quick responses from core, information which cannot be made available publicly without harming the efforts etc.
All the other things about donor forum is nothing but emotional garbage.

Every airlines has its onw set of issues - u will get the pinch only when shit hits the fan. My bags were stranded in Dubai and when I reached Chennai I had nothing with me except a small bag with no clothes.
The agents told me - if you have Indian passport then Emirates will give you $$ compensation per day but if you have American passport Emirates will give $$$ per day. They reimbursed me for 2 sets of clothes and shoes and $50 per day for three days because my bags arrived one by one on the third and fourth day after calling them everyday and pressurising them. If we did not call them - the bags would come slower than that. In Dubai the bags were in hot sun and I had choclates inside and somehow the cover broke and choclates melted and seeped through and a I think you all can imagine how it is.
What I am saying is - things are good everywhere unless we get into issues. Things were good until Retrogression hit us here. Now we complain about difference in treatment - but earlier wenever complained.
What I am saying is - when dealing with things outside of your home country - you cannot expect or assume fairness to you.
I would submit that this is far more discriminatory than Air France or any other airline flying via Europe. The European carriers are bogged down by their country's immigration policies, it seems. I flew Air India via Frankfurt once and the German security officials had all Indian passport holders (not possessing a Schengen or transit visa) quarantined in a separate holding area with inadequate seating and restrooms for the hour-and-a-half layover. I can imagine the frustration that would have ensued had there been longer delays.
However, unequal compensation for troubles caused by the airline is entirely a different and unacceptable matter. It is discriminatory and I'm sure it violates some international mandate somewhere.
I disagree that because you are outside your country, you cannot expect to be treated fairly. Unless they have a solid evidence that you have broken a law, they should not treat you any different than any other person.

Given that 23800 letters is appearing tough to meet can we tweak the approach such that a survey is created on IV and people can respond to it (since more people read IV than actually respond to requests) and we can use those numbers to prove the number of people behind the idea.
Is that a possibility?

I have really had good experiences when i renewed my passport, my wifes passport and also when i applied for my childrens PIO card. On each ocassion the documents arrived before time and the service at the SFO consulate was great when i called them with a concern. On all 4 ocassions i use the $20 option to get the document by Fedex. We spend thousands on the recurring nightmare at USCIS, $20 for peace of mind is not a big deal.
I have also observed that we tend to get overly agressive when we talk to indian govt officials here. I think we expect bad service and we mentally prepare ourselves to fight. I am not saying that all do this but some of my friends did concur with the thought. There are many geuine cases where there is a problem, as some desi govt officers are sticklers for making sure that forms are in 'order'.:D
Same with me (again SFO consulate in late 2004). No issue and everything happened smoothly. When I called to enquire on the status, they responded very professionally.
Again there are several factors to it. If the person recently came to USA, may be he will be much more polite and as days goes on, there true self start erupting OR its just they easily show their frustrations given there job security or could be we are loosing our respect with fellow indians as well recent times after all INS and federal governments are doing to aliens. Just my thoughts

Nobody is talking because that suffering period and criteria and reasons all over. Nowonwards you will see the effects of what happened in 2002-2004.EB3-I the slowest in the group is at Oct 2001. So Forget Apr 2001.
o.k..I read some of your old posts (but not thorougly) and I was confused (I guess you have done lot of research) - so can you explain again ?
in yr opinion - does it mean EB3(I) won't go back to april 2001 ?
I guess by "what happened in 2002 - 2004" - you mean lawyers filed most cases in EB3 ..am I right ?
would appreciate yr reply ..Thanks !!

There is no such thing in the Indian Constitution as the "national language." You can either read the document yourself or you can refer to the recent (late June 2010) judgment by the Gujarat High Court to this effect.
There should be respect for all Indian languages. The more Indian languages you know, the more familiar you will become with India and Indian culture. Those who do not know Hindi need not rule it out from the list of other Indian languages they could learn. And the same can be said for any of Assamese, Marathi, Gujarati, Telugu, etc.
Exactly...I was getting irriated when people are forcing and telling that I should learn hindi. isnt my personal choice...?
