When I joined Company X (prior employer) I paid for H1b transfer fee and h1b renewal fee(total $3200 + $3000).
They agreed to sponsor my green card(just to give required paperwork) and they asked me to pay GC cost, So far I have paid $1500 for labor +$1700 advertisement + $1700 for I-140 + $3750 just now to file I-485 for me and for my spouse as dates were current to my lawyer . I have labor and I-140 approved from Company X.
I was compromising my personal life by staying away from my family and company X didn't find any client near to my home. I decided to stay at home hoping Company X will find some client near to my home. I was on a bench(no salary for a month).When I asked for a "employment letter "to file I-485 Comapny X said they can't give because they are
not paying me , I said I will resign and then you give me "future employement letter". I resiged Company X( i found company Y near to my home), in 10 days they cancelled my H1b visa without informing me, gladly I found Company Y and H1b transfer took place before they could cancel my H1b. Company X is reluctant even today to give future emplyement
letter.They are ready to do corp-to-corp, for that I have to pay them H1b tranfer cost of $3200(as my prior h1b got cancelled by company X) . I don't beleive its worth going back to them , but at the same time never wanted to lose $8650 green card cost. To join Company Y again I paid h1b transfer fee and , company Y expects me to pay Green card cost again. I am on 7th year extension. New H1b is valid till 2010(3 yr extension on I-140 approval from company X).
Shall I start green card again with company Y ?
Company X doesn't respond to emails/calls. There should some law to protect us from such employers. BTW Employer X was an american employer and wants to follow book-rules.Example .. informing USCIS to windraw H1b petition.

Filed I-485 on July 31,2007. Checks cashed on Sep 10th and received Receipt Notices for me and my wife through the attorney yesterday. I am in the EB-2 category with PD: Oct 2005.
However, on both of our I-485 receipt notices, the Category shows up as "Unknown" ...Has anyone else faced any such thing...
Please advice.

Folks
Did anyone get their physical Cards without getting CPO message ?
I have recd the I-797C Approval notice on the 11th but I have not recd the physical cards as yet. BTW I did not get any welcome e-mail or CPO mail - I directly got 485 Approval e-mail and that is all.
Wait4ever,
I am the same boat, got the approval email and a week later received the approval notice in the mail. Did not get welcome or CPO email. My approval notice says I MAY have to do biometrics again to get my PR card
and they will notify me about appearing for biometrics if required.
Dose your approval notice have a similar message?
Thanks

Your Comment on H2B is only right about H2B and doesn't apply on EB green cards. We are people who came on H1B & our Green Cards were sponsored by US employers, we have our Labor & I-140 approved and we are waiting for Visa number assigned to our applications. So you could be comparing apples to peaches...Immigration policies had been hostile in past 12 years and will continue to be same indefinitely...Now our choice is sit back, lie low, keep watching & read Visa predictions indefinitely- may be another decade or 2- or take some steps, which I think, are not going to face much opposition. Also regarding reason behind so many Indians is, that 200K H1B between 1999 and 2002. Even if visa cap is lifted for 2 years that big hump will be crossed, it may smoothen the Visa allocations for Indians.
One thing that everyne needs to understand is that before the lawmakers, etc., take a stand they study the issue.

I think the point raised by nousername is valid. Out of three people applying for fresh h1 only one gets it through lottery. H1 is only intended for fulltime job. After one fulltime job you can have multiple H1 for part time jobs. So if a person without a job offer is selected through lottery then it is unethical. It's not legal in H1 status without proper wage. So it is always desirable to apply H1 when you have a concrete job offer where the employer is willing to pay as soon as you apply for H1.
What’s your problem man? You are mad because your wife did not get H1B/Job? What do you say to a American citizen who is saying that you took his job? It’s all part of the game. Everyone is trying to improve their life.
How can you tell your wife is better? Your wife is doing exactly the same, converting from H4 to H1B. Did she have job offer when she came to USA? You must have come through some consulting company, what kind of offer letter you had when you came to US?
Everyone is playing by the rules, otherwise we would not have been here. dont think you are the only one playing by the rules.
How can you tell he/she is representation false?
People like you are the ones who are dividing the community.

I got my FP done in Jan 2008 but we never got the FP for my wife. We put in a SR with USCIS customer service.
We did get a response about the delays, but it is taking more than 60 days to get a response.
It has been 5 months since that response came.
We called USCIS customer service and they suggested to go to the fingerprinting location, along with original I-485 receipt notice and the letter stating the delay and see if the IO would take the FP the same day.
Lets see ....

Hi everyone,
I am flattered and extremely grateful to all of you for thinking about this. However, Immigration Voice has made it a policy to use the funds available for advocacy and in order to do that we have chosen not to reimburse expenses for anyone. We will in future, change this policy and reimburse expenses for travel and stationary if it is affordable to do so without running short on funds for advocacy. There are a lot of people who have spend money from their pocket on this effort. Recently, Gopal, Tamsen, Anand and many other had spent money to organize rally and make the banners for San Jose rally, Jay have traveled to DC multiple times on his expense, Himanshu, Vineet, Pratik, Ashish, Nagaraj, Naren, Alok and other members of the core team have all spent resources from their pocket. And there are a lot of good non-core group members who have kept the faith and have spent from their pocket and writing all their names will fill up many pages of this thread.
If I am unable to get reimbursed then I would not regret at all because I truly believe that every penny was worth the effort and I am lucky that I could do this for myself and this community. This community is not about one person, it’s about all of us and it’s about this broken system. I am nobody as an individual but we are collective a very big community. We need to stand up for ourselves so that few lawmakers will not take pride in beating us down by their false rhetoric on the Senate floor. As you have witnessed lately, these lawmakers think that beating us down is like a low hanging fruit and every time they need to improve their ratings, they could simply do some empty rhetoric. And when we all stand-up for ourselves, together, it will be time for this bigotry to end.
Please do not collect or send funds with the intention of reimbursement for me or any particular core group. Please continue contributing to our organization in whatever capacity you can. Please become more active in the state chapters. In the beginning the response will be slow and sometimes discouraging. But if you are persistent, you will be able to motivate others in your area and raise the level of participation of other members. Please stand up for yourself and not expect lawyers or employers to do “something” for you. For too long a lot of people have taken advantage of this community. Some lawmakers have even taken pride in beating us down, knowing well that we do contribute towards the progress and pay the taxes and do our due share in the society. We all need to realize that it doesn’t end with whatever we have been doing at our jobs, because if we want our issues to be addressed we have to organize and act as community. And there is nothing wrong with organizing a community. We all have witnessed our strength when we all collectively acted as a community responding to the recent visa bulletin fiasco. We won because of the participation of everybody who sent flowers, participated in the rally and participated and helped behind the scenes in these activities.
So please keep this in mind. For the core group, your involvement is as important as your contribution. Participating in phone campaign, fax campaign, flower campaign, street protests, video campaign -- all this is a billion times more important for our success. Contributions are also welcome but your presence on the street and your face on the videos is of paramount importance for coming months. Please follow every single action item both on this site and the ones you get in the newsletters. In order to get newsletter, keep the email address and contact information in your profile (of IV account) up to date.
My wife and I received our green cards in June. But all it doesn’t end with a green card. We will all continue to have same set of problems. This IV generation will be facing same set of problems in the future, regardless of the country of origin. The question is, do we form a new organization from scratch whenever a problem knocks at our door or do we continue to be part of an effort which can take on any challenge for this community. So if you have received your green card or if you are at any stage of the process, in the long term, we should all act as a community to see greater things happen for all of us.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts.
Take care,
Aman Kapoor

Thanks for quoting that. Now, how do you define what's legitimate? Meaning, why can't you show that your self-employment is "legitimate?"
http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/AC21Intrm122705.pdf
what does this mean?
confirm that the new employer and the job offer are legitimate
legitimate means bonafide. Isn't it?
For both, new employer and new job offer.

Guys until CIR passes soft country limits Remain right? ALso a lot of us who have applied on Eb3 DO have Masters in the US, it's just that our lawyers played it safe and applied in EB3.
Please correct me if i am wrong.
Say the SKIL bill goes thru quicker and much b4 the CIR. Then it is beneficial to all of us right? The Eb1s, Eb2s and Eb3's with a US advanced degrees are exempt from the cap and the eb1 overflow will still go to eb2 and eb2 overflow will go to eb3. That way everyone benefits to some degree.
Please please correct me if i am wrong
The CIR has been scheduled for debate starting May 15th (unconfirmed report made available to us). The SKIL bill has not been scheduled.
As far as passing the SKIL bill goes, it is in the same boat as the TALENT and PACE. They still need to be scheduled in spite of the PACE bill having 60 co-sponsors. Remember that the McCain Kennedy bill and Cornyn Kyl bill were proposed almost a year before they got considered.
So just want to temper everyone's expectations here. I don't think the SKIL bill will pass before the CIR. If the CIR fails, only then will the SKIL/PACE/TALENT bills gather some momentum.
Hope this helps

like desi*3* pointed out, its good to get a lawyers' opinion. if this was illegal it is unlikely that corps would do such postings in such numbers.
unfortunately, H1B is often the last choice in tough economic times (of course the job skills will continue to be an overriding factor) which hurt some H1B workers the most. Personally, holding a job was very difficult for me during the dot com bust so I understand the pain.
But there is very little to be gained by copy-pasting dice ads in IV forums . we have also seen such ads during the the dot com bust when software industry was down. what's so new here?
and by going to the media, you are going to incite more anti-indian feeling. an indian gets equated to a job stealer in these times. people don't bother to instrospect over what exactly has ruined the job market.
at times its good to lie low instead of making impotent noises. just my opinion.
choose wisely. finally, each to his/her own.

Consider the scenario:
Two guys (A and B) come to US in 2005, both do not have MS and experience less than 5 years. Therefore both not elligible for EB2 on 2005. They are from a retrogressed country.
A does MS and joins job in 2007, becomes eligible for EB2 and files GC on 2007.
B joins a job on 2005 that do not need MS and experience and files for EB3.
Till 2010 both of them did not get GC. But B crossed 5 years of experience and from EB3 to EB2. Now B's priority date is 2005, although he was not elligible for EB2 at that time.
Although A was elligible for EB2 in 2007 earlier than B (2010), A is pushed behind B.
SHould it be acceptable to people like A? And there is not one or two pleale like B, thousands arer doing that?
If you see my priority date you will understand I am not saying this for myself. I have a bro and friends who are facing this isssue.
Therefore EB2s who are from mid 2006 onwards will really get pushed back..
I see this porting simillar to the labor substitition.. Till it was in place it was legal although thousands bought labors and that is one main reason EB2 had retrogressed back to 2000. I predict simillar thing is happending again, people are paying money to the desi employers to file perm in EB2 again pretty soon same tertrogression will happen to EB2 I if any urgent action is not taken.
I hace passed this stage.. now its for you all to decide..
In Your example, Is B working for the same company or different company in 2010. As you know experience working for the same company does not count towards EB2. B has to take another job at a different company to qualify for EB2. Am I correct in this?
(unless the title and job description totally different in 2010 for B)
