I initially voted in favour of this, but on further reflection, I think this is bad policy and urge others to not support this.
Giving I-485 benefits to people without current PDs is a bad idea. It creates a class of immigrants who are neither non-immigrant visa holders (h1b) nor are they lawful permanent residents (i-551) with a set of rights that falls into neither category. The AoS pending status is intended as a short-duration temporary "gap" coverage for people who are a matter of months from having actual I-551 rights.
Essentially, this proposal aims to make every month into the July 2007 fiasco. In addition, and this is the truly horrible part of it, relieves US employers of the pressure and costs they feel now, extending H1Bs every 3 years. That means that the only allies that legal EB immigrants have (US Employers who require their services) are detached from the immigrants themselves...they no longer have a dog in the hunt, and will stop whatever pressure they are bringing to bear now upon Congresscritters and Senators to increase the number of EB visas available.
Disconnecting the interests of foreign-national employees from their US employers will weaken the political position of the foreign-national employees. We cannot vote or contribute to campaigns, our employers however, can do both. If employees are shifted to EADs and APs, with no further involvement of employers in their immigration status needed, then those employers become disconnected from the process, and the one and only ally the legal immigrant has is no longer interested. That's a horrible thing for the immigrant to advocate.
I strongly urge IV to back away from this proposal, as it is not in the long-term interests of the EB Immigrant community. I urge IV to instead focus their resources on items that will help immigrants long term, like increasing the number of EB visas available through initiatives like eliminating the DV program and allocating the visas to EB applicants.
Thanks for your insight. This is another perspective and it demands further discussion and analysis. The wait time between filing I-485 and receiving the green card is already beyond the norm and a lot of companies are aware of this. Imagine the wait times for the people who haven't yet been able to file for their Adjustment of Status. Wouldn't it help them (and their dependents) if they are at least allowed to file for their AOS? I invite the members to provide their perspectives on the issues raised by JeffDG above. Please do not attack each other. Let us fight together in lieu of fighting each other..

Hi,
My current status is
I currently work for Company A (on H1B) and Company B is processing my GC (EB2, I140 approved; I485 in process) .
This month, I found a new job with Company C which I have to join on EAD (they don't do H1Bs). Also, in this month's bulletin, my PD became current. I had a few concerns/questions
1) Could the change in employment trigger any flags since I am changing companies and this is a future employment GC case (though its almost 3 years since the I-485 was filed)
2) What do you suggest I do since its so close? I waited all this time just not to complicate things (and remain on H1) but then as soon as have to start work on EAD, the date also becomes current (which I am definitely very happy about ) but now since both these events are so close, I am not sure what to do.
3) What other things are there to keep in mind in case of a future employment case?
Thanks for all the help,

I'm glad to see Immigration Voice weighing in on this one. Under some of the versions of health care reform proposals being considered by Congress, legal immigrants could be excluded for five years before they can access the Medicaid and insurance subsidies despite the fact that they pay taxes, are abiding by all of our laws and are often making critical contributions to the success of this country.

Good question. I'm not sure if the two-year home residency requirement applies to tourist visas.
But if your J-1 program isn't subject to the two year residency requirement, I don't see why there would be a problem.
Warning: I am not a lawyer.

I definitely want to see other D2x vs. 1DsMkII tests before making any conclusions about the resolution, but even assuming the 1DsMkII holds the advantage, I'm certain that it won't be visible in real world prints that aren't at extreme sizes. That was a fairly good review, anyway. :)

Yes, that is accurate. You cannot convert from a Student Visa (F1 visa) to a Resident Visa (Green Card). The F1 visa is not a dual intent Visa. You have to have and H1B or L1 Visa to apply for a resident visa. Generally it is taking Chinese citizens who apply for residency in the employee based 3 or 2 categories. (EB3 or EB2) several years to get their GCs.

While many are assuming that the public won't accept immigration reform during this recession, polling numbers tell a different story. America's Voice commissioned recent polling that shows firm support for CIR: Sixty-Five Percent of Respondents Supported Congressional Action on Comprehensive Immigration Reform in 2010. According to the December poll, 65% of voters prefer for Congress to take up the immigration issue this year rather than wait until later. Sixty-six percent of respondents supported comprehensive immigration reform before even hearing details of the plan. Support for reform continued to cut across party lines, with 69% of Democrats, 67% of independents, and...

I m not sure but I think he has to wait till he gets his citizenship . The other way to apply for Tourist or student visa. Tourist visa will be for short time and student visa will be hard to get if the Husband is Green Card holder.
Again, I m not 100% sure of this. some experienced people may be able to give you detailed information

Hi,
I"m currently working for a TARP company and my I-94 date is Aug 2009. I still have 3 years left on my H1B.
I've got an offer from another bank (non-TARP) and they have filed for my H1 transfer.
a) Any idea what the wait times are these days?
b) Anybody seen problems with H1B transfers these days?
c) There might be a 1 week overlap (pay) between my current company and my future company. is that OK? e.g. My join date in the new company will be Feb 23rd and my notice date will be Feb 28th in my current company.
cheers

Hi,
I did not find a conclusive answer to my situation when i looked up multiple immigration forums.Hoping you folks can help.
My H1B expired on Jan 13th 2011 and my employer filed for extension on Dec 17th (Regular process) for Client A using LCA filed for City A. The case status is in initial review. Due to project reasons employer now wants me to move to City B for the same client. But my company's immigration dept have some reservations doing the relocation while the H1 extension is not approved yet.
1) Can we move to a location other than the one filed in LCA before the extension approval.
2) Can we use a already existing LCA for city B.( My company already has a Blanket LCA in city B). what is the relationship between the validity of the LCA and the H1 extension that is being requested in the petition.
3) Can we file a new LCA for city B. would this need a H1 amendment
4) Will any of the above options negatively impact my extension approval.
