I have absolutely no right to ask that question because i have never contributed money.
See, you are a rational human being and know what to ask for...
But when i am told that I dont have access to this thread or that thread because I am not a donor...I do have the right to question if this organization actually represents all immigrants or just the donors?? If the motto of IV becomes "Change for fairness and justice (For Donors Only)" then it would make a lot more sense to me. But as long as IV keeps on harping that they represent the plight of legal immigrants (which I am) then I do have the right to ask the question ..."What exactly has IV done?" .
Oops, ok.. I will take that rational thing back.. a lawyer who get paid by you "represents" you and anything he says will be treated as your word. similarly, PR people who get paid and "represents" you - yeah, their statements are counted as yours.. you have a right over their actions that are "representing" you.. you can sue them, fire them etc... now, IV "representing" legal immigration - and you as legal immigration claiming rights over thier action.. are they really the same ?? i don't think both the above "representations" are the same.. enligten me.. how can you claim the right to ask IV anything ..
Asking the question is never the problem, it may make people uncomfortable but I want people (like yourself) who are contributing to at least ask IV before ranting on people like me (who dont contribute) to support the cause...).
hmmn.. back on being rational again... Thats where the DONOR forum begins.. so that we can "rightfully" ask the updates and get them
Supporting the cause is NOT equal to giving IV money.
I agree.. and you don't have any right to question the morality of IV or anyone who is contributing.. there are many many threads asking CORE questions about what they are doing and most of them don't have time to read through old posts.. CORE can only answer so many posts a day.. so, the DONOR forum which should be easy for them to manage...
The republicans already tried something similar ..."If you are anti-war, you dont support the troops"..That was fallacious
yeah.. look where Repulicans are now..
and so are all the personal attacks on the "freeloaders" (like myself ofcourse).
the so called attacks are only when freeloaders DEMAND the answers and then talk about their rights because they are "legal"..
ever heard of the statement "ask not what the country has done for you but ask what you have done for the country ?" - I guess the gist is, because you are born doesn't give you any right to demand.. so, if you replace "legal immigration community" in the above statement, what have we done to the legal immigration community ?? IV is educating people to understand our plights and our DC rally is a good effort in that step - are you there in that rally supporting the community ?? if you are - atleast you are doing someting.. if you think that I am ranting on those who didn't show-up.. may be I am.. thats one opportunity we missed and since then we had electons, change of congress. we may have another rally soon.. when the IV comes up with another effort like that, will you come join me at that rally?

needhelp! I have never met you but from seeing your effort in the fund drive I know you motivate people.
Keep up the good work, with time your state chapter will be one of the best.
Shame on those who RSVPed and didn't show.
Our current situation is dire. Even a back of the envelop calculation of wait times for a lot of us seems unreal. Being inactive in the only organization that speaks in our voice is just not being smart. We cannot let laziness take over and live in denial of the immigration mess.
For the members who do not want to volunteer for IV activities, the least you can do is contribute to the IV funds.

That is right. But same country quota is there in EB system also. So in point system also 80% of people will get same quality of people as current system. But advantage is process delay will be eliminated.
The points system will likely result in significant deterioration in the quality of EB immigrants.
The biggest flaw of the point system as it is currently structured is that people may be able to get a green card even if they are unemployable in the US. No one knows what fraction of green cards granted under the points system would end up going to these types of cases.
As it stands today, 100% of all people admitted under the EB categories are assured of decent employment when they are granted a green card. Why should we move to a system that permits people to come in based on paper qualifications, work for low wage jobs and then after 5 years claim welfare benefits?

Hi,
I am transfering my H1b to my friends company. And I have to bear all fees. As such my case is simple, no complications. I have good education credentials and 10+ years of exp. Got education evaluation also with me.
I just went thru USCIS site and it looks like to me that filing H1 transfer by myself (or by my friend) is a fair simple job.
Can anybody give me advice or have some experiece in filing H1 or transfer H1?
Thanks

I recommend you apologize to MC and don't make this a circus
.
And yes that was spouse not spouses (I am sorry about that spelling mistake) but you did post a message which was a . which was in relation to another members query about whether i am a man/women or something else. Now a . is called a Point which is also a degrotary reference to a person who is neither a man or a women. Now please do not deny it because there is no way you can fight that accusation off. I think if i dig deep down i wil come across other abuses made by you but i regress from the point
Most EB2's who are talking on this forum are idiotic, egostic and too much of themselves to think straight. Case in point Smugbee, SNathan and TonyHK. Since they don't have ead they want ead and thats all they care about. As long as they get to file 485 and get ead they dont care.
thats pretty ridiculous, why don't you prove it

Hi all,
This discussion is very valuble for people like me deciding between living in Canada as PR vs H1B USA .We all know that salaries in USA are slightly better than Canada .But now the exchange rate is almost equal.
Salary:
Can a person with family(2 kids) survive in Canada with CAD 50,000 / year salary in a place like Toronto.? I heard in Canada you pay 13 % tax on anything you buy .Does 50 % of your income goes in taxes ?
HealthCare:
Also is the government sponsored health care good compared to USA .I mean do you have any wait to see specialists.Is healthcare comparable to USA .
Immigration:
In USA anyone can get a Greencard regardless of their qualifications and it depends how early you enter the GC queue.But looks like in Canada they value your educations and other qualifications.Can IT professionals (non-managers) apply for Canada PR without a job or canadian education?
Canadian Citizenship:
Many people want to get Canadian citizenship and return to USA with TN Visa .In future ,could USA put restrictions on this .?
Please share your thoughts .
Thankyou
yes these are very relevant qs.....will someone from canada pls advice abt these especially the cost of living, property and savings....

Please and i'm begging you that please read the entire post and think for a moment before replying. I'm not in BEC, already filed my 485. I'm aware of the IV efforts towards getting relief for BEC people, I never disputed that. My point has been that the system and July bulletin is unfair (at least from one angle) and that calling it unfair/unjust should not upset others. I don't know what words were used by Bigtime and banning him was fair or unfair.
You want everyone else to suffer just because you suffered? or because older pd's suffered? life is not fair so get over with it... the sheer fact that you are in this country is a god's gift to you! So dont be judgmental about things...
btw my pd is feb 2003 and i'm very happy for everyone who will get the opportunity to get in the door!

Now that Democrats in charge, I think that there may be a chance Republicans might in fact be eager to pass Immigration related bill in house before they go out.
The president wants to have this bill passed for 2008 elections. In 2004 he made big deal on Soc Sec and immigration issues. Soc Sec is dead. So in order to show that he accomplished something he would like to pass immigration bill. He has shown eagerness to do so. Looking at another way, it must be clear to Republicans that they may have over-estimated public's anti-immigrant sentiment. If they don't pass the immigration bill now, democrats will get full credit for immigration reform.
So I think that unless there are more important issues, we might have a chance.

NJ Senator Robert Menendez reply:
Dear Mr. XXXX:
Thank you for contacting me to express your support for the Real Enforcement with Practical Alternatives for Immigration Reform (REPAIR) proposal. Your opinion is very important to me, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond to you about this important issue.
The REPAIR proposal seeks to reform our immigration system by strengthening border security and interior enforcement, and requiring all employees to use biometric Social Security cards to gain employment. In addition, the proposal looks to implement a fair path to legalization for those already here and it includes proposals to enhance family reunification.
I believe we can create reform in a safe, orderly, and legal process that preserves the promise of America for all. It can create a pathway towards citizenship, make the process for receiving green cards more efficient, and create employment systems that are both business and family friendly.
America has a proud tradition as a nation of immigrants, but our immigration system is unarguably broken. We must enact practical, smart, and substantial immigration reform that reflects current economic and social realities, respects the core values of family unity and fundamental fairness, and upholds our tradition as a nation of immigrants. I believe substantial immigration reform is possible this year.
I have been persistently working with my colleagues to create and pass legislation that would enhance border security, while also providing a legitimate way for the estimated 12 million undocumented workers to come out of the shadows and earn United States citizenship. These undocumented workers should pass a series of strict and critical benchmarks, such as paying fines, learning English, and waiting at the back of the citizenship line behind those who have pursued legal means of attaining citizenship.
Comprehensive immigration reform is indeed an attainable goal and I believe that the REPAIR proposal provides a foundation on which we can build upon. Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts with me. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I may be of further assistance. I invite you to visit my website (Robert Menendez - US Senator for New Jersey: Home (http://menendez.senate.gov)) to learn more about how I am standing up for New Jersey families in the United States Senate.

One change I noticed.
Now people can continue in the old system if the I-140 was approved or pending before the first day of the fiscal year subsequent to the the bill being enacted. So if the bill is passed right away, you need to have filed your I-140 before Oct 1 2007.
Not true. The wording is still the same. The date of "introduction of the act".

I don't personally think we had much media coverage except some hidden links, can we post some paid adds where everyone can get know what we are addressing in here i.e., on the front page of google, yahoo, msn, cnn, etc. I know some people might have second thoughts as it involves $ but I'm ready for it to get public attention. There is a thin line between legal and illigal and they are ready to club both together for their benefits. I'm starting to wonder how many people know what is going on, we have to educate them first.
I support this, and am ready to contribute $, time and sweat. We need visibility. Our main goal is to EDUCATE people, (and even the government!) that we are the totally opposite of illegals! The Congressman who spoke at our rally had a lot of good intentions, but then he started talking about how "illegal immigrants are also people who look like me"(meaning Caucasian/White) and he mentioned the thousands of illegal Irish immigrants living in Boston, who have a group called "Legalize the Irish Now".... those comments had no place in our rally of highly-skilled LEGAL immigrants! And that was a Congressman talking. EDUCATION IS THE WORD, and we need to invest in it NOW!! Let's go guys! Ideas!???

I wonder at what point of time this "three years of U.S. work experience" applies from. Is it that you should have 3 yrs exp when you applied for labor or is it when you apply for 485??
would create a quota exemption for certain highly skilled immigrants who have at least three years of U.S. work experience.
That pretty much covers almost all of us in IV

logically speaking, it should be good for us. Had it not been for the conservative house republicans and speaker hastert, CIR along with its many favorable provisions for us could have been law by now. So with that obstacle out of the way, things should be better for us.However, politics is never logical and immigration reform is neither the top priority nor a done deal with the dems. From our perspective, we got to raise awareness about our cause all over again since most of the new congressmen will be unaware about problems afflicting skilled legal immigration.
Looking at few early Election results, it seems that Dems are winning. Needs to check how they will be do good for us. Any thoughts?

First off it is quite frustrating with people not participating and not putting their money where their mouth is. However, on a constructive note, screaming at people for behaving the way they are behaving rarely gets them to meekly surrender and start doing the right thing. Whether people do it out of their own free will or after persuasion, it take courage for people to participate. What works is to look at the problem and not to personalize the issue. So poor participation is the issue. If you are consistently not getting enough people to attend then it makes sense to delay the frequency of the meetings as one option. The other option is to call people and ask why they were unable to attend and give them a chance to come for the next meeting. Maybe the projection of rounding up x people was based on poor assumptions. So setting realistic expectations and then building momentum from there is the key. This is a dry tough fight. We need to set up tangible goals which break the vision down yet show the grassroot level people how the baby steps will lead to success. Most people in my opinion, back off because they do not see a realistic connection between the baby steps and the final vision. I think if we treat this like a challenge and try to understand the underlying problems, this movement will have a better chance at success. Regards, JH

The American Academy of Nursing is NOT in poor light. Did you read their prescription for the nurses staffing and issues related to it?
With comments like these, we are digging our own grave. The issue is retrogression and not hopital and health care economics. I pay USD 14000 for a family of four and by god's grace, never been to one.
I know may of these nurses who are being exploited by the bodyshops like HLG. They pay a meagre salary to nurses and exploit them on signed contract. Please, please.. use your brains minus emotion.

Re: "U.S. Plan to Lure Nurses May Hurt Poor Nations" (Celia W. Dugger, May 24, 2006)
Addressing the U.S. nursing shortage is critical to providing quality health care, and the American Academy of Nursing (AAN) is working to identify ways to ease this shortage within our own boarders.
Your article addressed the fact that the capacity at the nation's nursing schools is limited and therefore applicants are turned away. Student capacity at nursing schools could be expanded by increasing the number of doctorally prepared faculty and making sure institutions offer the necessary pre-requisite courses for potential nurses to increase the pool of qualified applicants.
More must be done to retain qualified nurses by improving the working environment. The AAN has commissioned a task force to identify ways to have technology aid us in reducing the administrative workload of nurses in order to allow more time for patient care.
Before we look elsewhere, there is more we can do in the United States to recruit and retain talented nurses.
