Actually abolishing the whole H1B thing is theonly way. Actually IV should actively start lobbying against any H1B increase. Then only there is a chance of of corp america supporting any GC reform.
IV should work on highlighting the H1B abuse that is going on, in the media
so that the whole H1B will become so radioactive they will be forced to scale down or reform the H1B.
H1B visa is the main reason for EB problems.
Nice...
"I am in. Now you can shut the freaking door on all those suckers who didn't manage to get in on time..."
No wonder that people start demanding to curb immigration right after getting their green cards.

Does anybody know how long an H1B visa can remain valid (including grace period) after a layoff ? What I know, is an H1B technically becomes invalid the day you stop rendering your services to your employer. The firm's lawyer suggested me to file for B1/B2 visitors visa to avoid going out-of-status.
If I do that, can I transfer my H1B visa (from B1B2) once I get a job? Or will I have to struggle against some quota?
Can anybody suggest a good lawyer in New York City or near Hoboken, NJ who can help we with all this? I tried contacting Cyrus Mehta, but he seems to be booked for another week.
Btw, thanks for the overwhelming response to my request for resources to find a job. While I am evaluating my options, please keep me in consideration for any openings that you see.
Thanks.
Technically there is no grace period. Get a job ASAP and you need 2 pay-stubs for transfer.You can even do without pay-stubs but you may have to go out for I-94. Best way is to transfer to B1/B2 and you can come back to H1b without any problem.

I guess it depends... I would prefer to slog with weather in Canada for 3 years and get citizenship instead of stuggling for 4-5 years with desi consultanting company to get GC. My sixth year is about to start in december 2009 and employer has told that they will not sponsor GC. I am planning to take citizen ship from Canada and then move back to India. That way, anytime I want to come back to US/Canada doors will be open. I guess, there is no right or wrong answer, its a matter of choice.
Plus you children will also have option of deriving Candian citizenship from you but but...
they will also be in EB2/3-India. Just a thought

because
1. the sponsors are current Judiciary cmtee chairman and
the past repub judicial cmtee chairman- both are very
influential senators, not push overs.
2. Senator from Washington has heard earful from the
tech lobby.
3. Our buddy Sen Cornyn is also a sponsor.
4.It restores provisions for EB-1, outstanding professors, etc.
NO SENATOR WILL WANT HIS/HER NAME ON THERE TO GUT THIS
AMENDMENT ENTIRELY. AT THE MOST THEY MAY ONLY TRY TO DILUTE
some provisions.
Proposed Amendments to the Senate Bill
Late last week, Senators Maria Cantwell (D-WA), John Cornyn (R-TX), Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Orrin Hatch (R-UT) announced an amendment to the Senate bill that would make important changes to several of the employment-related provisions of the Senate bill. With respect to immigrant visas, the amendment would restructure the proposed merit-based program to add several of the features of the current employment-based system. The amendment would add an employer sponsorship component, and would create programs equivalent to the first, second and third employment-based preference categories for foreign nationals of extraordinary ability, outstanding professors and researchers, multinational executives and managers, advanced degree professionals, foreign nationals of exceptional ability, and professional workers (though the amendment would not provide for an equivalent to the current "other worker" subcategory). The amendment would also restore the labor certification requirement for the second and third employment-based preference categories, but would not provide for a national interest waiver of the requirement.
In addition, the amendment proposes an additional 140,000 immigrant visa numbers for employer-sponsored merit immigrants, and would create a quota exemption for certain highly skilled immigrants who have at least three years of U.S. work experience.
Regarding the H-1B program, the amendment would eliminate the 20,000 ceiling on cap exemptions for foreign nationals holding advanced degrees from U.S. universities and create a new exemption for foreign nationals holding foreign advanced degrees in the sciences, technology, engineering or mathematics.
The amendment would also dispense with the Senate bill's expansion of the recruitment and non-displacement attestation requirement to all H-1B employers. Durbin& Grassley will not let this go that easily. At least some of the restrictions will be kept.

Hi,
I just got my H1B approved through company A with start date of 1st Oct 07.
Can a transfer the H1B to another company without working for company A?:confused:
I am in the US on H4 visa. I read that if you are in the US can transfer within 60 days of start date, and if you are outside US then within 30 days of start date. Is this true? Thank you all for your replies. It would be a big help!!

chaanakya, why do you have a problem with the donors? if you don't want to make any monetary sacrifice that's fine...nobody's complaining. Now it's only fair that you don't complain when people making additional sacrifice are given some recognition. Don't mistake...those donors also make all other forms of non-monetary contributions. Have patience things will work out slowly but surely.

[QUOTE=gapala;328433]The H1B visa belongs, in effect, to the company that sponsors it. You cannot work for any other company on that visa other than sponsor. If this is a transfer, then, In a so-called "visa transfer" what actually happens is that the initial visa is cancelled in favor of another one issued for the new employer. What that means is OP's work with old employer is considered as "unauthorized work". Do not consider this as illegal presence, as his legal presence is controlled by a valid I-94.
The above underlined text is not correct. When USCIS approve a new peition ( call it transfer if you would like to although....) they do not cancel the old unless the employer who owns that petition sends a request to USCIS to cancel it. :)

How long is your current H1 valid? As far as i know, You can get your H1 extended with the new company till the present H1 date provided the pending LC is not revoked. Normally most companies do not specifically cancel the LC..so you should be fine.
As soon as you join the new company, apply for Perm.
This was discussed at length at immigrationportal.com website. There is a seperate thread for guys in H1 7th year extension. check it out.

Dude you brought up the point of being a proud donor. Nobody gives a hoot if you donate or not.
You are doing it for yourself and not for humanity.
Get it right!
And the way you behave shows what kind of background you have (UP/Bihar)
So just grow up and learn how to respect others!!!
Arunmurthy, Please dont drag UP/Bihar. Bihari are proud indian too. I am not bihar but narrow minded guy like you talk all this nonsense. People from south may be educated, techy but very discrimating and hyprocrate. Most sound indian just hang out on their identity group and we all know if non south indian and south indian go to interview for tech job and person taking interview is from south, who gets job?

First of all let us applaud the effort and commitment of needhelp and the many other committed members of Immigration Voice. I think it takes a lot to sacrifice personal time for an effort that others may benefit from but who may not see or recognize it.
Having said that some of the posts on this forum are emotional responses. I think we need to keep in perspective that "galvanizing people to a goal" is one of the most difficult things to accomplish. IMHO chastising "wake up" call speeches is not going to help. That is not to say that some of what is being said is not right. But I ask why should we chastise anybody?
At the moment I seem to be the only member of the NM Chapter (hopefully that will change). But frankly, it took me more than a year to buy into Immigration Voice and it's value. I have only recently started getting involved. As I see it, if someone visits this website (even for an update or to read forum discussions - as I did) they see value in coming here. Recognition of value brings commitment. But that also takes time. Maybe a lot of people cannot commit in ways we want them to commit. Maybe a lot of people choose not to. We should wish all of them the very best of luck.
Should we be disappointed? Sure. But we should also keep in perspective that it is their choice and we have to be "okay" with that.
On the other side, I was pleasantly surprised that in 10 days we were able to collect 2/3 rds of our target for the omnibus bill. That is an awesome feat. People can choose to be part of it or not. It is really up to them. I know I will have stories to tell.
And to needhelp...don't worry you have plenty of support and if you keep at it you will find more success.

Hi All,
Thank you for the overwhelming response. I did skim through the responses and agree with most of the suggestions/comments if not all.
Someone had brought the issue of FIFO and if there is anything in the law that states that FIFO has to be followed. I am not a law expert myself and cannot comment on if there is any such law. But what I am basing is more on the everyday commensense behaviour that all we humans follow for any queue. FIFO is the predominant thing being done for any queue and that will be the most resonable way to process be it a bunch of applicantions waiting on a queue or to service a number of people waiting on a queue in a bank or post office or whereever it might be. That is the fair, unbiased and non-preferential way of doing things. Isn't it?
I want to make sure to convey the point that I first of all wanted to bring this issue to everyone's attention. May be my message was worded strongly, but doesn't mean that I am not flexible.
I thought suing DOL is one of the options. Of course if there are other viable alternatives that will be less demanding, less expensive and will take a more non-confronting approach but still could have an equal impact in terms of resolving the issue amicably then I am all for it. But then the obvious question is what are the other equally good options? Someone mentioned about a petition. So what is a petition and how do we do it? Also mentioned was writing letters to congressmen etc. So who do we contact and how? Please, please anyone having the information please share.
One more thing is that I am all for a dialog with IV core members and their guidance for this. Since I started this thread doesn't mean that I wanted to sideline IVs, but this is the only way I thought I could communicate to the IV platform about the agony of this issue and how people have been affected by this. So I am all for talking with IV core members on this. But please let me know how I could do that?
So please let us start acting now: The list of next possible steps (in no particular order) are:
- Decide if there are viable alternatives to a lawsuit that is more non-confronting and first try them if possible
- Get the support of IV core team for this
- If no other alternatives are available then consider filing a case. Consult an attorney for this
- Raise more awareness about this and get allt he support we can
- Raise some money towards this cause
So please please provide more inputs so that we could start making some real progress. Thanks!!

Its kind of confusing to make a one time donation.. and there should be two more options of $25 and $50 for one time contribution....
Can anyone tell me how to contribute one time and for the amount not mentioned on first page..
I think we should follow Hillary and Obama's grassroot campaign, whereby asking for smaller amount and that way make people more willing to contribute in smaller amounts...

Same here ... for EAD and AP (for me or dependent) my company does not reimburse these fees. They will however reimburse if I have to use EAD to work due to unavoidable H1 extension issues/ inability to extend beyond 6 yrs etc. I think that is a fair and reasonable policy in general
I know they charge a lot, but my employer will pay them higher fees but my employer will not pay me filing fees.
