I am not sure why we are focusing so much on the negatives of Plano meeting. There were so many new members for this meeting. I am not sure why nobody is focusing on this positive outcome.
Yes, there was certainly a positive outcome as well. This meeting certainly established some members (Mostly who attended - Most old , some new) as "dedicated ones". Now coming to your question... I would not say it as "negatives".. rather I would say it as "self correction"... If I have some flaws or my organization has some flaws, it is my duty to recognize it and try to correct it. If these self correction methods applied to very early stage of organization, it would be good for everybody in a long run. No organization can run without accumulative efforts from everybody. Yes, in Dallas we have many dedicated members but when you see some members dedicating time, money, communication and others even not attending the meet forget about contributing efforts then something is definately wrong and you need to accept it and adddress it. I think needhelp and logiclife are doing that here.
One thing everybody need to understand is that we are sitting on a fire and with getting EAD if we do not want to understand that fact than nobody can save us. Collective efforts bring enthusiasm, oneness and societal brotherhood feelings which pushes more to people for standing up for the cause. Now say if we do not address this then what will happen is slowly people dedicating will be disheartening for putting more rigorus efforts which situation definately demands. I request all members to analyze this with calm mind and if you feel truth in this please start sharing all kind of required efforts sincerely and help us create a miracle. Yes it will be miracle to convince congress and senate for bringing solution to our problems.

If you read the postings in this thread itself you would be surprised to see that some consider this as controversial. You are not writing your life off just because you married a H1B visa holder. It also happens that majority of H4 holdes are woman and hence unable to express their views. - a perfect case of lack of visibility.
What makes it intuitively obvious that an H-4 visa holder cannot express their views just because they are a woman?
H-4 visa holders can seek a change of visa. If you want to work, do so instead of relying on the H-1 status of the spouse. If you want your wife/husband/dependent to be able to work, why not seek a change of visa status for them? Or is this just too much of an effort?

Why does Australian govt allow H4 Visa holders to work unlike the US Govt does??????
Doesn't AU government know that H4 visa holders don't necessarily have the same skills as the H1 holders do? May be in AU, there is no provision to change from H4 to H1. In the US, you can always change from H4 to H1, if you want to work. In the US, every visa is different. You just need to get the right visa according to your needs.
I hope this helps people who don't know that H4 to H1 is possible.

What ever you have pointed out is very valid and no doubt, shows the injustice. However, considering the present situation following are my thoughts.
1. Let's call for an action item for all those IV members whose LCs are still in BECs
2. Try to present the case to USCIS in a truly meaningful way about the those individuals still waiting for LC approvals
3. Try to get an exception so that they can file 140+485 even after Aug17th.
(atleast this is not an impossible thing to USCIS to accept just few thousand when compared to hundreds of thousands)
I strongly believe in IV from day 1 and quickly take an action item first of all to come up with list of the individuals (as many as possible).
Then, let's approach USCIS (i don't know how to do it at this time, but open this for some good ideas) to get an exception for those cases still to come out of BECs
I know so many of us have already filed for 485 or busy to file before Aug17th, but PLEASE LET'S DO SOMETHING.
Personally even though i applied for 485, i'm all for it and justice MUST BE DONE
Subject: Injustice :mad: for people with priority dates in '02, '03, '04 etc. who are still waiting for their labor certs to be processed using the traditional process - we want to file a case against DOL's lethargy - Let us join together and file a case against DOL and bring justice to this unjustified system.
The manner in which the backlog reduction center have been processing the
labor certs seems to be very unfair for people like me and others who have been affected. I know of cases with priority dates as late as 2005 that have gone through the traditional process and have been approved already. And there are cases like mine and others with much earlier priority dates that haven't been done. This is very unfair and unjustified. It is like we have been standing in the queue for several hours and a person who came much later than me just sneaked into the queue and got his service done while I am still waiting for my turn. Also the fact that now the UCIS has made the filing of I-485 current adds more insult to the injury that I and others in my position have endured.
The fact that the I-485 was made current and then withdrawn was made a big deal and people wanted to file cases, whereas the plight of people like me who are still waiting for the labor cert to be cleared has been totally
ignored, inspite of the fact that people who applied for labor much later
have been approved through the traditional process.
We want to file a case ASAP with the DOL or other relevant
authority regarding this issue and the unfair way of the process that we
have been subjected to. So can all those folks who have been affected by this join and voice your support? We shoud put up this fight because this is in no way justified. Why would it be?
The next steps should be:
- Get all of the support we need from all affected folks ASAP
- Get in touch with a lawyer who can help us to prepare the case
- File the case in a court against DOL
- Make sure we get justice
Please join and show your support. Please help!!!

Shows you the general herd mentality on this forum. As long as everyone is thinking the same way, everything is great. If you differ, everyone will call for a ban on you. There are lemmings everywhere. Unfortunately, I had to come to this forum for news. I have never seen such a bunch of dimwitted people at one place...
I generally really like this place but for the past week I have had about 5 moments where I've sat at my computer with complete disbelief at seeing people get banned or yelled at in mass just for being pessimistic or for not agreeing with others' opinions. You'd think it'd be due to cursing, or anti immigrant feelings, or constant spamming/waste of posts, etc, but no, all you have to do is disagree with people. Now who's this guy who inspired the flower movement and what was he about?? right.

Lets NOT do a hunger strike.
Think of something that is unique, gets media attention, something that has not been done, but conveys the message in a very subtle way and yet is very powerful and will create a lump in the throat.
Free math turoring, free SAT preperation classes, you get the idea....
Good idea, do something constructive and get media attention. This solves multiple purposes, media attention, best use of time, and would also convey a positive message.

Did anyone research whether it is possible to get some relief through rulemaking, instead of legislation? For example, there is no 'explicit' prohibition against issuing employment authorization to spouses of H1bi employees. The rule-making agency (in this case the DHS or USCIS) can grant a benefit that spouses be provided with employment authorization. Recently, the USCIS actually did provide regulatory relief by de-coupling the H1bi period of stay from the period of stay in H4 status. An idea to consider...

[QUOTE=dixie]So what they say sounds valid in theory, but impossible in practise.
If USCIS takes 5 years to process an EB visa,how is anyone going to wait that long to hire a foreign worker ? And what is going to happen to a foreign student when he graduates ? go back home and return after 5 years ? Even allowing for significant reform, and assuming their "instant GC" proposal is really instant, I dont see a GC ever being processed in under 2 years anytime in the near future. QUOTE]
I agree with you, my first reaction too was that this is practically impossible. Bill Gates was suggesting the proposal of "Instant GC" for anyone who completes their Master's degree in US. So may be some day this will become a reality.
I dont know how they are going to deal with immediate family members in that scenario. This does not sound like a bad idea but not everyone is lucky enough to afford doing their Master's in US. A number of them come on H-1B visas. Bill Gates was not against H-1B program.
I think there is a general consensus that H-1B program is being abused by employers. IEEE is suggesting to wrap it up while others are suggesting to keep the program but fix it, by providing the flexibility based on the current market needs and enforcing tough monitoring on the employers.
I must agree that the document is a perfect representation of how the H-1B program is being abused, which is unfortunate!

I don't know how many people know this, but I have worked with 3-4 different attorneys and I HIGHLY reccommend RAJIV S KHANNA.
Firstly, Rajiv reviews EACH & EVERY CASE!!!! - you find it hard to believe ? - no, its true, I spoke to the guy atleast 3-4 times. I had a question and i called the paralegal, she just heard me for 2 minutes and said, wait, I will get Rajiv on the phone and Voila - he spent like 45 minutes answering my every question.
I told him its a great relief to even talk to an attorney directly. Also, a little known fact is that apart from immigrationportal.com Rajiv has his own website for his clients, its a protected site and he answers every question himself, its not a complicated site like his portal, but real simple and nice. He does not overcharge, his staff worked weekend and nights to file my case. I was calling their office even on saturday at 8PM and have always been greeted with a smile and with extreme patience.
Every time i have left a message or sent an email, they have ALWAYS followed up, no matter what..it can't get better than this...
I have had horrible experiences with 2 other attorneys though..they even took my money and DID NOTHING..

what I meant is the following. There have been for years visas for skilled employees, one is called L-1 and is when a person is transferred by its company, the spouse can work. the other one is H-1B hired by a US company, the spouse cannot work. Then now, they are about to legalize people who had been living illegaly in USA doing low skilled jobs, they will give them a low skilled requirement job visa, exactly as the H-1B and the L-1 only that the skills are low, and they will let their spouses work also, the only spouses of non permanent resident aliens with a valid working visa unauthorized to work will be the H-4s, and it is not fair.
