I never knew Hindi is a local language in US:D Moreover I dont have anything against Hindi or any other language. Its the personal experience with people on more than one occasion.
I was not talking about Hindi in particular. I simply meant the language local to the place you are at, be it any city or state in India or the US.

Im going to try again ....This whole discussion got so twisted ...so here is the gist to bring everyone back on track.
USCIS's interpretation of law for the "redistribution" of unused visa numbers is as follows (FALL ACROSS) : arrows denote transfer of excess numbers from categories
EB1 -> EB2 ROW/IN/CH
EB2 ROW -> EB2 IN/CH (proportional)
EB2 ROW/IN/CH -> EB3
EB3 ROW -> EB3 IN/CH (proportional)
Ron thinks that this is wrong and it should be as follows (FALL DOWN):
EB1 ROW -> EB2 ROW -> EB3 ROW
EB1 IN -> EB2 IN -> EB3 IN
EB1 CH -> EB2 CH -> EB3 CH
and at the end then cycle through unused visas to single state categories
I believe that USCIS's interpretation preserves the intent of the law makers to create maximum benefit to the US employers.

Andy, 25+ million before they petition for their parents, grandpas, uncles, nieces, bothers and sisters, etc. Then in few years do the math and tell me whether that should be a whole lot more :-) But who cares as long as we get our GC, right ?
Are you sure it is possible to sponsor your nieces, uncles etc if you are permanent resident? Don't you have to be a citizen to do that? I always thought you have to be a citizen to do that.

I arrived in the USA on 02/04. By current time I haven't been assigned to to any client's project which my bodyshop promised me. Also he have'n paid me yet even a single paycheck. I started to find another company which could do transfer my h1b. Is it real without any paycheck at all?

If you do some more research before writing you will realize that H1C are limited to 500 visas a year and the conditions for selecting the hospitals allowed to sponsor is so stringent only 14 hospitals or so in all US qualify. Here is some more info.
http://shusterman.com/h1cfaq.html
Also here is a list of 14 hospitals in all of US who qualify. There is not even 1 hospital that qualifies in majority of states.

Hi,
Many posts on this thread suggest that there is no H1B type visa for nurses and so they have to come on only greencard; and that is why Health lobby is trying hard to GRAB 90K unused visas (note: I consider this as a grab because from skill/CIR bills; we are trying to recapture unused visas and make them available to ALL EB immigrants rather than allocating them to one special group). But according to this news item on immigration-law there seems a non-immigrant visa H1C available for nurses. Is this true? am I misreading this?

02/13/2007: DOL Announcement of Processing of H-1C Labor Attestations
The Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Reauthorization Act of 2005 took effect December 20, 2006. The Act reauthorized the H-1C nonimmigrant nurses program, a program originally created by the Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Act of 1999. Under this program, eligible hospitals file attestations with the Department of Labor, Office of Foreign Labor Certification which, if approved, will support nonimmigrant worker petitions filed with the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The Department of Health and Human Services has informed the Office of Foreign Labor Certification that the same hospitals eligible for the original program continue to be eligible. These were listed in the Department of Labor's Interim Final Rule implementing its portion of the H-1C program published on August 22, 2000 (65 Fed. Reg. 51138). The Employment and Training Administration, under the authority of the new public law, is reinstating the H-1C labor attestation program and is accepting applications by qualified hospitals. Eligible hospitals should be advised that the now-expired OFLC form (ETA 9081), Attestations by Facilities Temporarily Employing H-1C Nonimmigrant Aliens as Registered Nurses, has not been authorized by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for current use. However, the OFLC will accept applications using the expired form until a new form is approved by the OMB. The attestations are made enforceable by the 2005 Act. ETA is in the process of revising the form under the OMB clearance process, and taking other appropriate regulatory action. Once approved by OMB, employers will be required to use only the new form.

Simple, the power will shift from Rep to Dem from Feb 15th(not sure about this date). So we have to to find a lobbying firm which is close to Dems.
IV go ahead and work on our cause. Some people will lose confidence as if you have guaranteed them something.
For MEMBERS,
IV is a group with folks like us. THey are also working like us and TRYING to get something passed for US. NOTHING is guaranteed by them. They do not have million dollars in their kitty to do the lobbying. What they have is mere 8000+ members in this org and mere 200+ monthly contributing members. What you can expect from them with this kind of support in US. This is not a thrid world country where you can go and bribe to get your job done. You need strong organization with good relationship with lawmakers. To get that, IV needs funds. Nothing would be guarnteed and this should be set in back of your mind. We can expect just the 100% positive efforts to solve the problem we have from IV. This is enough.
ok, i am beginning to lose confidence now... first no i-485 relief and now wait till CIR>.....last year, CIR turned out to be a big circus....i hope this time something productive happens....
why are we changing lobbying firm? what do you mean it is a strategic decision?
are we dissatisfied with our lobbying firm? pm me if you can post on public forum..
but we need answers....this leadership is going nowhere now......

Since it is orginating from house. Also It may not be passed as it is. Subject to Amendments. For example there will not be oppostion to increase of h1 to 115k. But market based adjustment will have some opposition. In fact I heard one of calfornia Senator is opposing flexiblity of the Cap though she is accepting that h1 cap should be increased. Some debate also will be there in both houses and Senate has to vote again. Also EB category will have permanent increase in immigration, a few weeks of debate will be there. But we have to see how much oppostion will be there for EB immigration increase though there will not be much oppostion to H1b. Last year anti immigrants worked in backdoor and successfully delayed the the bill so that it can be killed. But this time also they will try to delay it because they cannot oppose the bill directly. Anyhow it may happen before this year end. Immigration is emotional topic for Americans as they fear their jobs are in risk though it may be or may not be true..

Berry, Appleman & Leiden LLP is very good firm. I have very good experience with them. They completed all my paper work on Jun 30, so that they can file by July 2. Also the attorney and the para-legal were really good and replied to my questions patiently. The website is http://www.usabal.com/
Karthik
I don't think Berry Appleman is a good firm, they took 30 days for all people to prepare simple docs for I 485 which takes 2 hours for us to prepare and they never respond to calls and email.

We only talk about global warming, environmental polution, water pollution, air pollution etc etc.
Its time we start talking about "global though and emotion pollution".
Every house, group, town, city, state, country are all a collection of thoughts and emotions. If you could quantify these you could measure the amount of "waste" often with tremendously long half life periods that many of us are disposing into this pool. This is the greatest pollution from which infact all other pollutions even start to originate.
Our role during this life is to put some effort in trying to clean up this pool just like BP is now trying to clean up the oil mess.
How to start? stop being critical and avoid dissipating harmful thought about self and others:D:D:D

Could not agree more. We are masters of everything related to caste, quotas and discrimination and we need to fix our own house before complaining about other countries, airlines etc.
Well one can avoid Air France if it 'makes you feel better'
The Crux of the matter is 'Indians discriminate Indians !!!!'. You see that everyday.....
1.Indian embassies in US...
2.Air India service is better for Goras and Goris than us...
3.Even in a website called IV and the list goes on and on.
Its been long forgotten that we were once the richest country in the world with a amazing history and cultural background.
Bottom line: Once a fellow Indian starts respecting another fellow Indian 'others will follow'.
Cheers!!!

Would you encourage people to post it in other immigration forums? We'll surely get plenty of interested people to participate and to fund.
Appreciate your great efforts!
This is a good idea. Please post on other immigration forums and urge other websites owners to post information about this event to get more support and participation.

I agree..calling USCIS customer service doesn't make any sense.They are all front desk people who have no clue of what's happening inside.
Of course it makes sense, that is why they are called "Customer Service". Continuing to call them at this time when we know they know NOTHING doesn't make sense. But it sure is funny to hear the crap they have to say:D

Congratulations to all IV members for being able to apply for I-485. This is GREAT news. Please please apply for your I-485 at the earliest. It would be best if your application reaches USCIS in the week of 2nd July. Here is the link to July Visa Bulletin:
http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_3258.html
Remember that you have to be in the country to apply for I-485. We may soon have lawyer’s information on our website to answer your questions in real time. Not sure till the time we get confirmation from the attorney but IV is working on this and may post this information soon.
This is a GREAT development!!!!

Securing America�s Borders
It�s a national-security issue.
By Senator Bill Frist
America needs secure borders. Right now, we don't have them. Every day thousands of people violate our frontiers. We don't know their identities and, quite often, we can't stop them. As a nation of immigrants who honor the rule of law, we must secure our borders before we can reform our immigration policies.
That's why I introduced the Securing America's Borders Act Thursday night. The bill will take our first step towards a safer and more secure border. This new law will add resources to border protection; give our immigration-enforcement officials new legal tools; invest in barriers; and make it easier for employers ensure that they hire only citizens and legal residents. In short, it will make border security a key component of our national-security plans.
Enhanced border protection starts with additional people and equipment along our frontiers. While the Senate last year led an effort add new border-patrol agents to the President's budget, a single action can't solve a longstanding agent shortage. Over the next six years all told, my bill will add nearly 15,000 additional border protection professionals to augment the 20,000 Customs and Border Protection agents already on the job. To make sure that all CBP officers benefit from the best available technology, furthermore, my bill provides for new investments in aerial vehicles, cameras, and sensors. To give CBP's work purpose, it will also establish a tough, thoughtful, and comprehensive national border-security strategy.
So that DHS officials can catch those who violate our borders, my bill will also enhance collection of biometric data about border crossers while creating tough new penalties for human smugglers, people who forge border-crossing documents, and those who involve themselves in sham marriages. Finally, terrorists and members of dangerous gangs will face expedited removal from the United States.
Prevention also matters. We can nip security challenges at the bud and save lives if we prevent people from breaking our immigration laws in the first place. Each year, many people die trying to cross our border. I've already asked the Government Accountability Office to investigate the deaths along the border but I don't believe we can wait for study results. Thus, my bill will also begin the process of building a 1,951-mile long virtual barrier across every inch of our border with Mexico. The new barrier will combine walls and fences in high-traffic areas with sensors to let CBP see and hear those who make a run for it in low traffic areas. Together, these measures should make the border safer and more secure.
Enforcing immigration laws with regard to those who enter the country, however, will only do so much to enhance our national security. Most of the people enter America illegally, after all, come here to work. Nearly everyone agrees that employers should have some responsibility for making sure their employees have legal clearance to take and keep their jobs. Right now, even the most well-intentioned employers lack a quick, efficient, foolproof way to verify the immigration status of the people they hire. Thus, my bill will expand an existing pilot program into a full-fledged electronic employer-verification database to help employers and workers alike.
While these proposals provide a good starting point, we still need to do more. Among other things, the full Senate will need to address ways we can balance security interests with our economy's labor needs and the role National Guard units might play in border enforcement. In the long term, our government needs to work on policies that encourage democracy and prosperity abroad which will also address our immigration crisis by reducing the number of people who feel that coming to the United States is their only option.
We are a nation of immigrants and that heritage remains strong in our hearts. Every immigration- and border-related policy the Senate approves must contribute to our country's security. Only a focus on security that emphasizes the rule of law will make our nation safer for all those who live here and who come here.
