Anandrajesh,
Congrats and great job. However, I disagree with the salary part you
mentioned in your interview. You had mentioned that the salary used to
be 1/10 or even 1/20 of the US salary when you moved back to India. Do you
think this is correct ? I dont think that is a correct ratio
At times, unconsciously, we exagerate how bad it is in India while it is not.
Just my 2 cents. Again, this is not to find fault. Great job.
-------------------------------------
I was interviewed by National Public Radio(NPR) recently abt the whole immigration stuff. This can be heard on the following link
http://marketplace.publicradio.org/shows/2006/03/09/PM200603098.html
My 2 cents worth of thought, that has reached the National Audience. Getting Media Attention is pretty important with this fight.

Thank You for the information. But
1) I have heard from someone that there is a statement on their website that the transit visa is required only if the stay is more than 10/20 hours.
2) Where do they check for the transit visa? is it done while boarding into the airport in US or while entering into the German airport? If they find that we don't have a transit visa in Frankfurt airport, what would they do?
Please answer to my questions, this is really needed for me to act on getting the transit visa.
If you can type a question in this forum, then, I guess, you could also do the research by yourself and let us all know about it. If you heard from 'someone', please ask him/her to send you the link and post it here. Thanks.
Most nations do not require a transit visa as long as you are remained in the Airport and changing planes to your destination. If you decide to take a break for few days, then you need a Transit visa, which you can either get prior to your travel by contacting the respective consulates or Embassies or at the transit airport.

If you are referring to my earlier mail about NIH, it is not a university but an umbrella term for 12 + National Institutes of Health. The institutions are completely funded by and part of the federal government. If there are immigrant investigators working there as staff members, they should at least have GC already. But, postdocs and other 'glorified' staff positions require either J1, H1, EAD from NIH or employed in such visas by contracting staffing companies.
If any IV member works in the university, could you find out if there are any Indian and chineese assistant professors that have joined in the recent past. Such people might have applied in EB2 through university and will be retrogressed.
Also pls get in touch with post-docs in your universities and inform them about IV. Hopefully some of them might be willing to help us with the interview.

My EB-3 labor PD is 02/2007, my I-140 is stuck-up in NSC for more than one year now.
Considering the present trend, I decided to move on to EB-2. I pressurized my employer to file for another PERM for EB-2 which they are now reluctantly doing. Let me see what happens :rolleyes:

I just applied for my little one yesterday.
fingers crossed!
Can't believe getting usa passport for my little one required two page application and just the birthcert, But for PIO they need everything in the world!
PIO is GREEN CARD for India.
How many papers you have sent for your PERM & I-140 so far?
You need to hire a truck to send your I-485 papers in next stage.

My H1-B visa expired on June 16, 2007. Extension (I-129) has been filed in May 2007 (before expiration). It has not been approved yet. It's still pending. My LC has been approved on July 09, 2007 and my PD is April 2004. My question is: Can I file concurrently I-140 and I-485? Will my application be rejected or will an RFE be issued?
Thanks for your input.

Hi,
I looking for porting my approved EB3 labor and 140 to EB2. Here are my details:
My qualification: Diploma in electronics and communication Engg in India
(3 years diploma after 10th)
Years of experience: Since 1991 in IT (About 20 YRs)

Situation: When I contacted one of the university in USA they informed me that I can
do the Masters instead of BS online degree.
My question1: Will I be eligible to file my EB2 if I do Masters without doing BS?
My question 2: Is MS from International Technological University (http://www.ITU.EDU) is accepted bu USCIS for Immigration purpose?
Thanks in advance

free "EAD and AP" for life what are you talking about??
People who filed I-485 after the July fiasco (starting with the August 2007 bulletin) paid a higher initial fee ($1010) - but they don't have to pay any EAD & AP fee - either the first time or for any renewals.
Look at the "Special instructions" sections of the following URL:
http://www.uscis.gov/i-485

Hi all,
Between this thread and the main chapter thread, we have now accumulated a handful of members, looks like we are all set to be an active chapter!
couple of things:
1. IV IL chapter has invited us to their conference call, please check the thread called "Members in MN" under the IV agenda forum, if anyone can participate and report back here it would be great.
2. Conference Call: Anyone have dates or times in mind? btw pappu, question for you: does iv have a way of facilitating these calls?
Looking forward to hearing from you all, together we will surely achieve our objectives...

have you considered asking your client to hire you effective jan 20, but take unpaid leave until jan 25 or whenever they are ready to hire you?
That would have worked if the Client had already finished the hiring process and filed for my extension b4 my I-94 expires on Jan 20... I am yet to appear for the interview, it is just that i have some strong references (and they have multiple openings) so I have extremely good chances of getting hired ... so, no, this idea won't work :(... Jan 25th was just a imaginary date that i gave... the hiring process may take couple weeks more than that (yup, unfortunately, it's that slow) ... I was just trying to find out what are my options after Jan 20... would I be just stuck with this staffing company or could I have the Client file for my extension... if it is legally not possible then I might as well just forget about this opportunity :(

I find it difficult to digest that parents ship their infant children to someone else to raise.
Dude, if you find it difficult to digest, then don't do it with your kid. Its that simple.
A debate on this is probably not warranted, as its subjective to every individual's situation.
And btw, both my kids live with me, but they travelled with someone else to spend their vacation at grand-parent's house, so I am not trying to oppose your viewpoint.
