The other day, three guys, a Pakistani, an Indian, and a Czech, and one Serb girl (originally from the beautiful city of Belgrade) met the staff of their American lawmakers, to tell them about the problems faced by the EB-immigrant community due to backlogs and insanely low visa numbers for EB-greencards.
You can't get more American than this.
My experience with the meetings with the lawmakers' staff has been very positive. I approached it with nervousness; however, the staff has ALWAYS been extremely polite, sincere and encouraging. They listen to us, and engage in meaningful discussions and question answer sessions with us. Quite often, we are told that this was the first time that our point of view was being told to them. We ask them what advice they have for us. And they all ALWAYS tell us to (a) talk to other lawmakers and (b) call them frequently, as they provide daily totals and tallys on pro-vs-anti calls on different issues to their bosses.
So folks. We still have time. We have a few weeks. Please (a) join together and form state chapters, (b) educate yourself, (c) call the lawmakers offices (d) meet the lawmakers and (e) do all this within the next few days.
Too often we take a fatalistic approach towards issues. Other times, nervousness and fear renders us incapacitated. Be proud of the fact that we are a diverse group of high-skilled immigrants. We are educated professionals. We are doctors, engineers, scientists, and other professionals.
It is our duty, as intelligent and educated professionals, to tell the lawmakers that we are facing problems, and to request them to fix those problems, since they have the power to do so.

Hi,
I have an approved H1B for teaching Maths, but I got an offer for teaching ESL (I am certified in both the subject). Am I allowed to teach ESL also? Is the visa subject specific?
Thanks!
What title they used in your labor certification? Did they explicitly mentioned as MATHS in LCA?
Unless and until you are working in the same professional, as the one filed in your LCA, you should be good. Suppose if they filed for a teacher and you are working as a programmer, then it becomes the technical violation of your LCA.
Though you want to teach ESL, as you are still teaching some thing, it should be good.

I was married in India as per Muslim law and currently both of us hold US citizenship. At the time of marriage we both were indian citizens. What kind of rights do my wife has on my property in India on our divorce (I bought these properties after my marriage and it is all registered under my name) ? In US, both husband and wife would share any property that we aquired after the marriage. Does the same true in India?
Thanks for your help. I pray no one should go thru these type of issues in thier life.

In my opinion, one of the more intriguing product announcements from Nikon today was the Coolpix 8700. If it improves significantly from the Sony, that could be a killer product. Right now, Canon is lacking a bit in the true consumer DSLR market. But then again, PMA is right around the corner. Click here (http://www.dphoto.us/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=122&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0) for the 8700 infp.
The Sony has Zeiss glass and 28mm WA. But the CA and Noise are horrible. Isn't the Nikon 8700 has same sensor size as the Sony 828? Wait and see how the Nikon performs in those deaprtments!

Can we go to local USCIS office and get new I94.Does that resolve the issue.
No, CIS local offices don't do this. There is no mistake on the I-94, so the only way to change it is as described in the prior answer.

The NC DMV is taking a really long time to validate my EAD. Its been over 60 days now since my license renewal based on EAD expiring October 2010. They keep sending me back with a temporary license valid for 15 days saying they are yet to validate and issue my perm license based on EAD.

My mother scheduled a trip to USA on May 1st. I am concerned about her passport. Her old passport got wet on the borders of the first two and last two pages. VISA was stamped in the old passport which seems to be safe. I do not see any wet appearance on the borders of the VISA page. The old wet passport expired anyway. And she got new one. Will it be safe to travel with these two passport having wet old passport containing VISA stamp? Thanks.
It may sound harsh.
Airlines will no longer take responsibility over the travel documents.
Considering her age and POE situation, you should think about transfering VISA to the new passport. What would be the expense, $150? It is worth.
They are old. Make their travel comfortable, convenient, enjoyable and most importantly secured.

To All,
I Am Planning To Goto India And Re-enter Usa Using Advance Parole And My H1-b Visa Stamp Has Been Expired In The Passport. Originally, I Planned To Travel By Air-india From Newark, Nj To Mumbai. The Flight Will Stop Over In Paris For 3 Hours.
When I Contacted Air-india, They Said That Transit Visa Is Not Required. I Contacted French Consulate And They Said That I Need To Have Transit Visa If I Am Travelling With Advance Parole And Expired H1-b Visa. Is This True?
The Only Other Option Left For Me Is To Fly From Jfk To Mumbai.
my Question Is When I Am Entering Usa (poe � New York) Using Advance Parole,
If I Use Advance Parole, Will There Be Any Problem With The Immigration Check In New York.
What Kind Of Questions Immigration Officers May Ask
What Are The Documents I Need To Show At Poe-new York.
Usually, Everybody Says That Poe-new York Will Scrutinize More Than Poe-new Jersey. Is This True? Did Anybody Faced Any Problems At Poe-new York.
Please Share Your Experiences, Suggestions And Thoughts.

Change the I140 to premium processing. If you are at your end of 6th year and if you have less than six month in your visa, you can apply for premium processing.

The company will have to sponsor the H1 in full. Not enough to just give you an employment verification letter.
Also as per the rules, you cannot pay for the H1. Only the company can pay for it.
Thanks for your reply.I thought it's a possiblity that we can transfer with an employment letter.Looks like its not.

As we watch the earthquake destruction in Haiti with horror, one group of individuals that will likely start to get attention is the population of Haitians currently in the US and who are obviously not going to be able to safely return home anytime soon. US immigration law actually has a system to handle precisely this situation. It's called Temporary Protected Status and it is available to individuals who are from country suffering armed conflicts, disasters, or other extraordinary conditions. The Secretary of Homeland Security is empowered to determine which countries are on the TPS list. People in TPS status...
