As long as you have had a valid h1b peition approved for employer 1 and employer 2 while you worked for them you are FINE.
According to my lawyer there is nuthing like a h1b transfer. When someone decides to move to a new sponsor that new sponsor files for a h1b via the petition but nuthing gets transfered, they need to refer to old h1b just to prove thatyou are legal and have been maintaining legal status.
in your case Employer X did so but you never joined that employer so you are fine. USCIS can get back to that emplyer if they have not cancelled your h1b as they are liable to pay you by law.
For real as you had an approved petition (latest but not the greatest) from Employer X but did not join them you are fine as long as you were still holding a valid petition with Emp # 2. You should respond back to RFE stating that you were maintaining stauts via emp#2 and were offered a job by EmpX which you never accepted. As a proof you should sen copies of pay stub for enitre period and w-2 + peition and visa copies.
Hope this helps!:)
Thanks piyu7444.

great thanks
i told them that i am calling on behalf of the employer, i told my name as a legal dept guy from my company, (as instructed by my legal dept guy as they r too busy to call USCIS). then she asked benificiary name and date of birth.
she also asked me when it was mailed, i told it was mailed by our mailing dept in 1st week of july (actually it was send on 12th july) :)
she put me hold for a minute and gave me the number.

Please understand that your older PD is much more important because u would get ur gc that much earlier compared to 2005-07 people. Just because ppl are able to file 485 does not mean that they are going to take a number out of the quota for that year. The numbers are only taken during approval and hence they would all still be stuck in the same queue and you would have gotten an oppurtunity to file and possible get your GC too...take a deep breath, relax and think about this with a cool mind. I definitely do feel bad for you. My labor was stuck in BEC too and i left my company and joined a new one and restarted all over again. Been on H1 for seven years without ever getting any chance to file 485 until now...

Exactly!
Only if people stop complaining when they see how they don't loose out even if others can "apply" for I-485.
I guess, there is lot of frustration and anger which maybe clouding judgement.

What was said at on BusinessWeek was just the old story again;just one side of the story. The truth is that you are setting yourself for disappointment if you expect this to turn into reality. Just relax, contribute to IV and save the rest of your money. Keep your expectations low, folks and we will get there.
Based on last week's BusinessWeek article, I have a feeling that we will see an effort to restrict initial H1B applications in some way. That would be a good opportunity to push for allowing naturalization applications for people who have been on work visas for a long time (say 8-10 yrs?). Fighting for citizenship would have a stronger emotional dimension and may connect better with the American public. A direct filing for citizenship will work around retrogression by providing an avenue for people to move out of the GC queue.

We do NOT support H1b increase without first reforming the EBsystem - we are neutral on this issue. There is nothing for us to gain by either supporting or opposing H1-b increase. We cannot support it because it worsens retrogression. We cannot oppose it for the simple reason that we are ourselves on H1-B. If someone thinks H1-B is bad, then how on earth can you justify giving GCs to these H1-Bs ? Why don't we start by deporting ourselves then ?
The reason zazona and numbers USA are "successful" is simply because they are citizens groups - and they have a sympathetic audience of folks who lost their jobs, as well as sympathetic mouthpieces like Lou FOULMOUTH. Politicians are bound to give weightage to these people's concerns (valid or not) if they wish to remain in power.
Lets leave H1-B bashing as an exercise to the zazona,foulmouth and co. We have scarce resources to begin with as it is, and they are best spent on something constuctive.Unfortunately, we do not seem to have any shortage of ideas on what new items IV should be working on.
Its actually the strategy that is wrong. The numbersusa
, zazzona etc is also a very small group but they use
right strategy.
At one hand you support H1b increase and also want greencard reform.
Those are contradictory things. Unless IV starts working against further
H1B incease , then only Corp America will start working on EB reform.
actually thats the reason I like unitednations. Whats he says is very true
(yes not very pleasant)

my friend.. thanx for your kind words
u and ur non-retrogressed friend have my support for an expedited process since u got US advanced degree that make u better suited for this market.. u should be talking STEM.. i am talking about the disparity in available opportunities to come here back in our homelands. Individual examples aside, I trust statistics, you'll find that each year a handful of giant offshoring companies grab more than half the H1 quota.. is it my streotyping imagination that infosys, wipro and satyam don't hold job fairs in Romania and they only make these opportunities available in retrogressed countries?
Hello! Infosys, Wipro and all those companies are NOT the main sponsors of green cards, which is the reason we're in this forum, no? Most of the sponsors are US based small and medium sized companies.
I don't care how many visas they get, the fact is that it doesn't affect me! I neither have a job with them nor I benefited from them grabbing a bulk of visas. End of the day I'm held back because of where I was born.
Look, this may be hard for you to understand, but just because those companies are in my country didn't and doesn't help me one iota. Everyone's on their own here.
Thanks for understanding that I have an advanced degree.
and don't give me the condescending excuse that if these companies only hire in retrogressed companies then talented, educated people must only exist in the retrogressed countries.
Anyway, i had this discussion many times here .. radical issue where people hardly change their minds..
peace..
That is ridiculous. I never said that nor I will. The reason is because those companies MORE people exist in those countries, and THEY'RE CHEAPER and poorer, that's something I do expect you to understand.
Did stereotyping help you in your discussions earlier?

My new target is 200. It was 100 before the deadline was extended.
58 collected so far (excluding the 24 letters at Fremont train station)
Besides, I prepare & mail about 20 envelopes a day to WH=> these envelopes contain letters coming in from several folks in CA.
This weekend, NORCAL will do not 1 but 3 drives:
Sunnyvale temple
Grocery stores @ Sunnyvale
Grocery stores @ Fremont
For more details, check out the latest messages on NORCAL yahoogroup!
After the last weekend drives in NorCal, my own tally rose to 151.
Actually anyone can spend an hour or two on this, and see how easy it is to score at least a hundred!

Can someone confirm if you can maintain accounts in the US after you leave. That sounds very dumb. I want US to keep my money and they don't want it?
I understand that after Patriot Act you can't open accounts in US without SSN but I think you should be able to keep your account because that SSN is assigned to you forever.
Withdrawing funds from 401K before retirement is not a good idea. It is best to rollover the funds into an IRA at your bank.
By the way, after the Patriot act is passed, you can not maintain financial accounts in this country after you leave if you are on H-1B. Uncle Sam is afraid you will be financing Terrorists. Another sucker punch. Take it like a (wo)man. :D :D
Should we not ask for exemption from these forced penalties imposed by Government?

If you have a good experience with your lawyer and are recommending the law firm, pls also try to talk to your lawyer about IV. Ask the law firm if they want to contribute/ or even publicize IV to their clients. If they agree to do it, please post here. If they refuse, pls post here.
So when you write about how good your lawyer is, pls also mention if the lawyer supports IV and the help that has been extended to IV.
This will help maintain a list of lawyers who are recommended by members and at the same time, help IV.
Good point, Pappu. Yes, Cyrus has been supportive of IV even mentioning its successful role towards the effective resolution of the July Visa Bulletin:http://www.cyrusmehta.com/Print_Prev.aspx?SubIdx=ocyrus2007720184422
He also mentions the DC rally in one his newsletters on his website (September, I think) and in an article submitted to the indiapost.com

Get a life.....As far as immigration is concerned...I know more laws than u could possibly think of..I have been in this immigration hell for more time than possibly u could think of...I am just asking u to read a few times before u post...
Being an Indian does matter in this discussion....in most of ur post ...u r referencing people from ROW...I understand what they would be feeling...that FYI was for u to understand that if I could get offended then people from ROW surely will...
there r lot of people on EB3 ROW who are either nurses, engineers etc...They are well qualified...and u don't have a right to call them unskilled...Period..End the discussion
OOOPs you are an Indian.... and how does that affect this discussion?
My mistake .... I thought you were a normal person discussing immigration related matters on an immigration forum and hence have the ability to discern, understand and have some background on immigration law, USCIS

I m a new applicant for EB 3 gc born in india.....just starting my process......with my PD being sometime in later half of 2009,do u think canada is a better option?......EB 3 india right now looks like a good 10-12 years wait time!!.......pls advice about canada immigration and is it a viable option?
You stand a better chance of getting it through your kids if they are citizens than getting it through EB3. There are a few options to get green card faster. Canada is not one of them.
1. Get a Ph.D, get a job in a univ and apply in EB-1.
2. Get a MBA and get a management job and apply in EB-1.
3. Become a religious worker in some temple and apply in the religious worker category.

oh ya, so you have a problem with donor status? Why don't you start with your cable company and ask them why do they charge you any money? Why don't you ask the gas station, that why do they charge you for the gas? Why don't you argue with the cashier at Walmart about the bill you have to pay if you want something? Its easy to be dismissive of others. Its even easier to fault others and argue that just because no one shared the information, so I have license to throw stones at others. But being an Eb2 highly skilled humanity savior personality that you are, why do you need a 3rd class Eb3 programmer to show you that it cost money to get things done. Why can't you see that in last 8 months this nation was going under a presidential election and nothing got done on any issue, other than bailouts and budget? Why can't you see that nothing has happened in the Congress on immigration for any other group? Why can't an highly skilled highly educated chanakya of this planet not see that it is ok for everyone to praise some immigration lawyers who are known to deliberately delay green card application, but its not ok to ridicule someone sincerely working to fix my issue? Why is it ok for me to track my application all day and not complain even once when some tracker website is asking for money to have my question from a lawyer, but will not leave any stone unturned to put the "burden of proof" of innocence on someone sincerely working to stand-up for me because I am too coward to stand-up for myself?
Let me help you understand it because it will be too much for your eb2 species brain to understand. Simple answer - You cannot see past the things that you cannot understand. Just go and ask Walmart cashier as to why he/she is charging you money for the things you want? Maybe that will help.
.
reading above posts it reminds me what I read :
Lot of junk sold in US...
People have gotten used to buying things that have no value. Wherever donation boxes are putup or beggers stand , people put money. Come on one does not need to pay because a other guy is asking.
So its upto the individuals to donate. Personally I dont feel one can do much to accelerate the GC process. If you read the history you can comeup with a list of things that changed the way things got done in US!!
Have a good one guys.

What a bunch of morins we are. We are calling USCIS to find out if they are going to accept our applications that were sent on Jul 2nd 7 55 am and Jul 2nd 9 01 am will be accepted. Lord have some mercy on us and give us some brains to read the USCIS update. Damn it. The morons who answer the phone lines do not know jack about W T F is going on. Thats why you were being put on hold. Stop calling USCIS crazily.
I guess they(morons, per your definition) are all techincally correct based on past memo's explaining USCIS stand on postmark dates,last working day in a month rule, the time at which the application was received(the revised bulletin was not yet published) etc etc
no matter what, the decision of accepting the applications is at USCIS's discretion.They can reject applications received in the last week of June as well if they want to.Period.
