our immigration department told me that as per USCIS regulation they can not apply earlier than 6 month of expiry date
Strange...
No, I am positive. My H1 was expiring 9/21/2007. I applied on 01/05/2007. Received 3 year approval in April 2007.

The fact that India and china priority dates are same for EB-2 suggests some spill over has already occured from ROW. We just do not know how much more spill over is possible.

1/09/2006: Priorities for Lameduck Congress
* Report indicates that overhauling immigration may be in the list of the Democrats priority and President Bush has also expressed his readiness and willingness to go along with the Democrats on the legislation. Immediately after the result of the election became obvious, apparently the President called into the White House the leaders of GOP to discuss the priorities for the Lameduck session.
* Taking such discussion and the President's meeting with Rep. Pelosi, future Speaker of the House and exhange views on priorities for the two parties as a positive signial, the immigration stakeholders started igniting some hope, albeit uncertain, for potential action by the Congress and are cautiously preparing for their move in support of the immigration legislation. For the report on meeting between the President Bush and Rep.

I first immigrated to Canada, got my citizenship and then came here to the US and am languishing in this stupid GC queue for the past 7 years..
Inspite of all the freedom to go back to Canada, I would now, rather move back to India than any other place...
Forget the little hardships in India..what matters is that India's IT economy is booming...booming like probably no where else in the world!
Why not, go back there, repay the country that gave me all the skills in the first place, and at the same time participate in that booming economy?
I agree with the sentiment. But the reality is many immigrants who evaluate the canadian option would want the paperwork that you have. Don't indian citizens, like the Chinese, require a visa to visit EU countries, commonwealth countries such as Australia, Fiji, the carribeans, pretty much anywhere in the world? Especially the more entrepreneurial ones amongst us all would want easy access to western markets and eastern talent pools. Sure it's still manageable to foresake what you got here, but I really want easy travel documents and the freedom to choose where I live and work.
There's no need to discourage people who choose to want to stay in the western hemisphere for a little longer.

Is the use of EAD possible from 180 days after Receipt date or notice date ? I just crossed the 160 day mark, but I still dont have EAD. Can I use the requirement to use EAD(like a pending job offer) as a reason for Emergency to expedite my EAD, the uscis folks want some real reason to expedite the EAD application.
Folks, please suggest to my question.

Hi
please read this
In all cases, the date the labor certification is filed (directly with the United States Department of Labor for PERM applications, or with a State Workforce Agency for RIR applications)
from the wikipedia link
Priority date - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_date)
------------------
Can some one clarify if the PD is based on the day labor application was received or the day it was approved?
My I140 states it as the day it was approved.

Is there anyone here that truly believes that the legislators will not pass something before the end of the year to recapture the remaining 50K visas left for recapture for schedule A? If yes then this whole argument is kind of null and void. They are not going to leave nurses and PTs high and dry, not with the kind of shortages looming.

Guys -
Dont lose "Hope". Its the most audacious word. I left the country in May 2009 with frustration , anger and the fact that whenever I was finding a contract in that tough times peoples were even NOT interviewing me the moment they heard that I'm a "H". They dont want to hear if I have EAD or my GC is going on - PERIOD. The vendors and contacts who loved me ( because they ripped high billing from me in 2000-2009) even started ignoring me.
I felt harassed that i'm fighting on a "non-level" playing field. Eventually I got something at CA (I live at MA) for 55/hour and on the other hand I got a top notch salary offer from a US born Hardware company's Offshore office at Bangalore, India. They SHIPPED all jobs from US to India. I took that offer because I have my Old parents there at India and missed their company for 9+ yrs ( apart from regular vacations).
However I could not adjust with several things there and ran back here after 10 months and found a truly EB2 job and ported my EB3 Mar 2005 Priority Date to EB2 in less than 1 year - I'm CURRENT ( YAAAYY !!) and Waiting for GC to come any day....
By the way - I'm not M.S from US or any kind of masters degree holder from anywhere. I have a strong B.E degree from one of the Top 10 engineering colleges of India (not I.I.T though) and 11+ yrs US experience and 12+ yrs total IT experience in my kitty.
Nothing is impossible - Wish Best of Luck to all EB3 India guys , you have the ability to turn the game , just play it truthfully and play it smart.
Let me know if anyone needs any help - Email me or PM me.
Regards,
Diptam
EB3 is not working, because we have no hope, not because we all went back or have ported.

dish,
Like I said earlier I pretty much feel the same way as you do. I want my spouse to be able to work for a couple of years before I think of moving back to India. But in reality having waited so many years do you think either you or myself will move back 2 years after getting the GC? Don't you think you will be tempted to wait 3 more years get the US citizenship and then move back? I have a few friends who are pretty much just waiting to get citizenship to move back. their argument is that we waited several years to get a GC and we don't want to just throw it away.
As for making H1B more humane I think it will never happen.
Most H1B holders get very good offers when they move back to their home countris after say 10 years. But the H4 spouse who spent al these years rotting in the USA again have to continue rotting....Their prospects are dim. So I want to get my GC. Let my spouse work here for couple of years and move back to my Own country.
So why not H1b made more HUMANE ?;) ;) ;)

I have not applied for my I485
Where and how do I get my A#?
Ask your attorney.
FYI..might help you..My attorney is so tough on providing information to me, So I said that I need the alien # to file an online AR-11, the attorney did not refuse. :)

refers to the same superior being for the 3 religions (Christianity, Islam and Judaism). So "God" and "Allah" are the same.
Hindus refer to everything in the world as a representation of the supreme being. So they see the supreme being in everything. There is nothing wrong in workshiping the goodness of nature.
For some, "parents are gods", "guest is like god" etc. The main point is to accept everything the world has to offer. :)
A man without spirituality is like a rudderless boat. ;)

I fall into the group that believes that this is one of the siliest competitions around today. When I say sily it is not in the sense that the game itself is sily but rather in the importance it is being given. Particulalry have you seen any other competition where the parents are also on display this much? By the way are any of these kids good writers? Has any of these winers ever produced a great novel/poem? if so they should tell us about that. Moreover, how many of the greatest inventors/scientists are great spellers? This is the only country where this type of competition is given such national prominence. I would say let them have maths/science/quiz competitions on such a national scale and media and that would be a great stimulation for others. This almost makes Indians and Chinese look silly!:D:D

This is the third time an Indian American has won the competition in a row.
BTW, the huge number of Indian American partcipants is not due to the fact that " Indian Americans" are brilliant... These children (at least most) are partcipating not becasue they have talent but they are being forced to by the aspirations of their parents.
All the Indian American children are crying, sitting on the lap of their parents etc... See any other kid who lost, they were cool.
Maybe your parents did not hug you enough when you were growing up, but that's not a justifiable reason to be jealous from these kids.
We are all born as genius, life de-genius us. Each one of us have the ability to be brilliant, it just depends how each one of us chose to spend our time. Folks who spend their time constructively are brilliant, because they have learned to ignore the negative. That's why these kids are brilliant and that's why they have the talent.
A growing child with aspirations looking for a parent to comfort and console them is not a sign of weakness, its a sign of a strong bond between the child and the parent, I guess thats a cultural thing. And a strong bond with parents that takes away nothing from them for being recognized for their talent.
As far as being forced by parents is concerned, I know for fact that I would have NOT gone to University to get a degree if my parents were not there to guide me at that age. If parents use constructive guidance that allows the children to strive and become better citizens of the society, that's called "personal responsibility". Last time I check, someone became the President of this country speaking in favor of "personal responsibility" and "responsibility of parents". Was that wrong?

YogKc, how did you get the temp license? which state? am I eligible for temp licese at PA if I did not get the license before the current one expires..
green_world, it's in Los Angeles, CA. They will provide you the Temp DL. They will tell you that they need check with the Immigration office.
I think the best bet will be to renew the license thru web if possible.
Good Luck

All arguments are very sensible. No doubt about it. am working on an EAD and they did not incur any legal cost. However, I get frustrated thinking why they charge $180 per hour to the client.... even when the cost to company for me is about $110K per annum or around $60 per hour. I do not know whether I am worth $180 per hour or not....but probably more than $60/hr since they can charge $180 / hr
We really need to analyze this deeply if we want to come up with a strategy....
Thanks for the 3 red dots which I recieved....
I guess still do not get the point .
It is not how much they charge for you and how much they pay to you. They ( your compnay) are here for business not for charity.
It is simple economics. Demand and supply.
If you quit they will find zillions of people of same qualification waiting to take the same for $60
Ideally , if you want to find out how much you should get/worth , put yourself in the market and do interview and try to negotiate and see what the range you are being offered . You may not take the offer but at least you will know where you stand.
Be aware full time ( with all benefits) and W2 / C2C/ consulting rate are very diffrerent and another dimension is region for different rate.
Hope this helps.
Wish you Good Luck.
