I think H1Bmajdoor isn't taking a depressing tone. It's more of a realization tone.
I believe that immigrationvoice core is a great, dedicated and determined group of ppl that's fighting retrogression. If they are successful they will positively touch a LOT of ppl.
Here's a little history of GC process I know...
back in the late 90's, labor processing (state+fed) varied for different regions of the country but there was retrogression(not sure how bad) so it used to take 3 years in CA and maybe 4 in some other states for the whole process. And some people who couldn't complete the process in 6 years ended up going back or went to canada. I personally know a couple of families who couldn't get it in 6 years of H1n.
Then in 2000-2001 suddenly labor started getting approved (State+fed) in a couple of months and dates also became current. Now this happened because businesses had been pushing the govt really hard stating that they are unable to get labor. These laws became effective after the market had crashed. So some people who were in safe jobs were able to take advantage but most ppl were hardly surviving. Around 2002 labor process started getting slower and slower and they established BEC's. So, labor started taking 3-5 years.
Then in 2005 they devised PERM. Now, that PERM was taking only a few months so they introduced serious retrogression. In this process some ppl who had been waiting for 4-5 years for labor to clear from BEC got slammed badly. They will be stuck for another year or two. Now that's really sad .... But if you applied in PERM in the last couple of years and will be stuck in retrogression ... well its bad but not the worst thing in life.
I don't mean to belittle anyone's wait, anxiety, pain of GC process but the process has always been painful. Only some ppl manage to get out of it unscathed.

going back to india is a personal decision, and each case differs. circumstances are key in this decision process. one or more members' past experience in india will not apply...
for the people who decided to go, if you want to share your decision, please do and may be post on your experience once you have reached and settled in india.

good point, would be good to get some feedback from folks who have already gone back.
Also, thinking if anyone knows of an already existing good forum where folks are talking of this.
and yes, very true, it is a personal decision...what one things is good may not be good for somebody else....
Peace !!

I am going to complete my 180 days by 1st week of Decemeber. The company I work for, is offering me a Project Manager position. My labor is filed for a programmer. I asked my lawyer and he told me that they sent a email to Florida State Workforce Agency to classify my new position and depending on the reply he tells me that I may or maynot port my labor.
Is anyone in the same boat? Is there any work around? I have been on H1 for 10 years now working for the same company (2 yrs as Contractor and 8 as employee), they have screwed me many times, I just don't want another disappointment. If this does not work, then I guess I have switch another company....
If Florida State Workforce Agency classify your new position with diffrent category then you can tell your employer that you don't want this new position. I heard that after 180 days you can get promotion and change the role... Experts can comments further...

If I were in a similar situation, I would be leaning towards taking some action so that they know that they cannot step over the rights.. If they employ a person, pay him as per the law. If they decide to file for GC, then the employer needs to pay for it, per the law.
The problem with walking down the slippery slope of being amicable is that the boldness to stand up for the right thing also starts slipping away.
I like the idea of writing a letter and reminding them of the law. Even if you might not gain (forget the $4Gs for a sec), you will be making the path better for everyone behind you. And that, my friend, is an excellent thing.

There are lot of people whodo investments,have kids and buy houses and everything else when they are on H1.
I don't see any reason to hold off things on H1. If your wife did master's why don't get her on H1, there are so many job openings available in market.
Instead of crying, take some action
She has been trying for the past 5 years... She is not in IT. She would get past all the interview processes etc but when it comes to finalizing the papers with HR etc comes the final blow. "No visa sponsorships, Sorry !! "
Seeing all her friends climb up the ladders.. doing well in different areas and you being left helpless is difficult to digest. She has been volunteering, working with different Societies, charity organizations. But keeping yourself busy is not just what she wants to do.

Everybody has been waiting for his/her green card and congratulations to all those who has got their GC. On the other hand it is really unfair and to some extent unethical on the part of USICS not follow a fair system.
There are several people in 2004, 2005 who have been paitently waiting for their turn only to see that people behind them getting approved.
Several of us have writtent to Ombudsman, Director but of no avail.
Not sure what else can be done? Any Idea? Do we have any liaison with AILA who can take up this matter.
You are talking about 2004, 05. What about 2001, 2002 and 2003? There are so many people with 2002 priority dates still waiting just like me. Mine is 02/2002
What a unfair/unethical/inhuman system. I curse everyone who is causing this delay. They will all land up in hell.

I'm just sharing what my attorney told me about AC21. He says that he always has his clients inform the USCIS (not that one has to but that's what he does for his clients). He says that apparently before the USCIS adjudicates the I-485, they tend to issue an RFE, just to make sure you're working or have the job offer etc. So an RFE isn't unusual or a problem, it's just routine. Also, he says to make sure that the old company makes the job fit. He said to check the codes from the labor cert. approval to see if the new job falls within the same category as the old. I certainly will use AC21 when I find a new job and I wish everyone luck whatever you decide to do.

I am not sure if I am correct,
Although no. of visas are awarded "EB category + country" wise, but spillover is not awarded in same fashion.
.e.g. 3000 visa comes to EB2 I & 3000 visa comes to EB3 I.
But spillover comes from EB1 to EB2 irrespective of country. And reason why EB2 I is far ahead is because of spillover gain before it reaches to EB3.
Even if some EB2 I guys are not happy with EB3 person porting to EB2, shouldn't they calm down as whoever is porting taking benefit from spillover for EB2 world and not from spillover EB2 I.
My assumption is spillover comes to "EB2" and not "EB2 + country" wise, if that is not correct then my point is nullified.

After reading lots of forums contributors, my 2 cents :
a) I think the first thing is ban those people who advise separation of interests or make invidual groups in forums.
As if things happening in india are not enough to divide people on all fronts, a new separation criteria is created here on EB1/EB2/EB3. A lot of us are very creative..wow !!
b) Initiative needs to be well spent and well thought. Its a forum for ideas and further on implementation. So, its for everyone. Taking initiative is not bad, go ahead, but walking tall on other peoples misery is not really very cool !!
People are waiting for 10 years in line, come on..think, if this happens to all of us..
c) Legal and illegal efforts. People accusing core of bank accounts withdrawls and all that nonsense, do not need any rebuttal.
The harshness of things is creeping in people, but pls. some sincerity is also needed.
I thank all of you who have worked hard for the benefit of all of us.

I am sure the democrats can harp on the point that non-passage of CIR means that an effective security component too does not go into effect. Point to note though is how effectively the message is delivered.
..... The Republican House is in a no win situation, passage means amnesty (their words, not mine) and non-passage makes them look ineffective. .....

The immigration debate for legal immigrants and illegal immigrants with substantial presence in the USA has been raging for 2 years now. Reforms consistently went through Senate but got stuck in the house. Last year has been most painful and has brought matters to a tipping point. Therefore, I conclude that after the elections things have to settle down - this matter cannot be up in the air any longer. Either we get formally and bitterly screwed or some relief pops out in the next 2-3 months.

In a mean time we should inform media for the flower delivery in a Mahatma Gandhi suggested way to protest injustice.
Some one with a good English please draft a letter and we all will send it to all media.
Media will not let it go...ALL THEY NEED IS NEWS!!! Which is new...Let us give a shot.
Just idea.
