I completely understand the frustration expressed by logiclife.
We either fail to appreciate or choose to ignore the fact that not every one is in the same situation when it comes to GC. For some, it is THE THING. For some it is just Nice to Have and some don't care. If it comes as a by product of being here so be it. Some of more desperate than others ...
Most people around here are educated and know what they are doing. I believe that was their decision and they have every right to make that.
1) I have a friend of mine, he is gainfully employed for his skills and his wife needs to be in this place for next 5 years. So he does not bother as long as his company applies for 10 to 13 year H1 extension (Which they did). Never visits IV, does not really care what happens around here.... I don't blame him.
2) Another friend of mine joined at a junior level and can't wait to get out of here with AC21. Now that he has MBA, wants to move up with AC21 (know, it is not allowed now). I told this person about our omnibus and he contributed.
and other people fall all over the spectrum of interest from apathy to can't live without it.
If I were in logiclife's situation I probably would react the same way, but I am NOT the leader of the org :) :)
I doubt who frequent here would have felt bad about the logiclife's comments, because it was just logic life being logiclife. :)
At the same time I don't think calling some one coward persuaded any one to contribute monetarily , If they have not contributed so far or decided not to. It sure would have released some of the frustration of some active members :)
My Original Peaceful question again:
Does battering members without knowing a real cause and passing judgements and making snide remarks help this movement in any way?
Anyone ?
I know there may be a number of people here who don't care about participation. But I also know they are outnumbered by sensible/mature members.
Occasionally administrators here start an emotional post, which is taken highly positively by active followers but not general population. Then there begins a war, Lines are drawn with elephants/horses on both sides.
This place is a complete disaster when it comes to PR.
One Solution - Close this place and stop aggravating people.
Real Solution - Do what is right forge ahead with defined agenda, don't make people ashamed or left out or make snide remarks as leaders/followers or activists.
Keeping a movement alive needs strong and open minded leaders. I think there are plenty of those leaders at immigrationvoice, Logiclife may or may not be one of them, i don't know (never met him or talked to him, neither have the desire), You don't have to make people join the movement, movement is when people follow with their hearts.
Since I am back in "red" after one Logical question on Logiclife's post in three months, I will go back to my exile, and let activists/followers rule this movement.
Peace again..
It's a sad day to see IVers granting each other 'red squares' , and committed members asking each other to 'shut up'.
We are quick in jumping at each others throat for no apparent real reason ! Being part of a forum is sharing space with others, with those whom you disagree, and those who disagree with you. Argue logically, but don't make it a personal fight.
Don't agree with someone, make your displeasure known. If things seem to be getting hotter, ignore the other person. Live and let live. We have bigger issues to worry here - GC mess - instead of who said what !
Agreed. But I am not surprised that oldmonk got reds. :(
For all those who want to make it pay site, I guess the core must have thought about it already and make it one if that makes sense.

I really don't think an attorney will give out their client information. They might even face a law suite for doing that. How would you feel if you found out that your attorney gave out your personal info?? :confused:
One of the ways, I was thinking of to increase membership to the newly created Nebraska chapter is to approach the local attorney's office and get contact information of the pending applicants from them . More targeted approach .
Now before I take action,few questions.
1. Am I kidding myself :-( no attorney would part with such information, Client-Attorney privileges.
2. Has it been attempted by anyone before??

. People deserve to be treated with respect and that is something he needs to realize.
This is the spirit IV leadership should have. After all we are building an organization with human beings not mechanical parts. We should be more compassionate towards junior members and bench warmers.

Let me reiterate that I am all for H4s being able to work and you guys should try unite for this cause.
I haven't researched L1 quota and its intent so I really can't comment further with respect to that.
Its unfortunate that legals and illegals are measured on different scales and it would be very unfair if they end up getting more benefits than us legals. I am not sure what you mean by illegal spouses? Either one is illegal or one is not.
I wish you the best in your search and would highly recommend exploring the unpaid internship possibilites in the interim.

Therefore best advise in EB3 India folks to convert into EB2 to get use of early PD like 2002 or 2003.
This is like telling passengers to move to the other side of the boat when it starts sinking one side. The outcome is only making the boat sink faster. Remember, the huge backlogs are not completely due to unavailable visa numbers.
Unless there is a real need, moving from EB3 to EB2 dont make much sense.

How many members, especially GC bitten members, does IV
Even if 90% of the members donate on an average $75, would that reach the goal?
I am trying to analyze. We need to bump up the funding to ace this opportunity.
Thanks much for all who donated $$$, skypmiles, carpool, etc for this cause.

Yes, I mean, eventually they would get their citizenship. It takes few years, but they will get there.
Are you sure it is possible to sponsor your nieces, uncles etc if you are permanent resident? Don't you have to be a citizen to do that? I always thought you have to be a citizen to do that.

Giving suggestion, since i went thru similar situation,i.e moved to a diff state.
We moved to Florida from California last week. Did AR-11 yesterday. We are about to file AP, our I-485 is pending at NSC but Florida comes under TSC.
File AR-11 first, after you see the LUD's(should not take more than 5 businesss days), which means ur new address is acknowledged by USCIS sytem , apply for AP
So not sure where to send our application.
Send to your current residence Service center, i.e. TSC
Intending to send following supporting documents.
1. 2 PP Size photos
2. EAD copy as we switched from H1B to EAD
3. I-485 receipts.
Should we include any additional docs like Copy of your previously issued AP or passport copy (1st ,2nd page and last 2 pages) or Last expired I-94 copy.
4.Old approved AP copies, if any.
Any advise would be of great help.
I did paper filing, it took about 3 weeks to get approved.Hope this helps
Thanks
Raj

I cannot believe that after everything that's happened over the last year or so, out of how many thousands of members of this group - just 199 of us called??
What are we doing as a group of people? Is it such a wonder that this country isn't moving on our immigration woes when we ourselves won't pick up the phone and talk to somebody about our troubles?
Wow-talk about complete and total apathy....I'm ashamed on behalf of each and every one those people who think they'll let someone else solve their problems - in which case I hope they don't ever complain about their lot in life. They have no right to.
Absolutely shameful...
If this is the level of participation we cannot and should not expect any thing. Just think about this there are a lot of anti's out there and they can and will vote. to offset that the volume of calls from us the non voters has to be substantially large. I called got my wife to call and a couple of friends I will try and talk to all my friends in TX to call as well. But that will just no cut it unless all of these 24000 so called members (I do not consider passive readers members.) will call and get all of their friends to call. I promise you when we get that level of participation whoever be the president, whomever hold the majority in House and / or senate our bills will be brought on the floor will be voted on, and will be signed by the president!!!
But until we do not have participation our voice will be small and nothing will be done. And we will keep on waiting forever...
Now go ahead and give me red dots. but my only request is please call and get your Husbands/Wifes/GF/BF to call. I will be happy with red dots if you at least call.

Including the House session and Conference session, if somehow this is pushed beyond October 1st 2007, then the enactment will happen on October 1st 2008. We have to hope for that. That gives best possible window for all BEC, PERM-BEC candidates and people who have not filed their I-140s yet.
The impact is on H-1B renewals beyond six years, with the cut-off proposed at six years. The only exception for renewal beyond 6 years is given explicitly to people who applied for immigrant petition. So BEC/PERM-BEC people should apply for I-140 asap.

I dont think filing EB2 is that easy. First condition is not that candidate likes to be Eb2 that drives the labor application (I wish that was the case then every one would have asked for EB1) it is the job requirement that should be able to qualify for EB2. (for people working in large corporations this will be the stumbling block) for people in consulting business this is not an issue but in this tight market with A2P and wages could spoil the party along with DOL activism for audit does not mean things will be piece of cake. For EB2 from candidates side he/she needs to have MS preferably in same field as work ( So MS Mechanical working as DBA might face RFE to explain) or the previous work experience might be scrtunized more to validate it satisfies the labor requirements.
All Indians and Chinese will file only EB2 now onwards:D
The problem is with past filings how to convert them to EB2.

Something can happen if we have a Democrat Congress which is filibuster-proof, meaning > 60% of total membership must be Democrats, AND a Democrat President, then something good could happen for us. It might not be exactly what we like because "undocumented" will get the same as well, but atleast also get what we want.
Nothing good will happen for us if we have a Republican Congress and Republican President. They will just make life hard for all of us --legal or undocumented alike. If we are having a hard-time getting a Driver's License right now, then expect worse if this combination happens next year plus the continuing recession.
Republican Congress + Republican President + Recession = NIGHTMARE FOR IMMIGRANTS
They will put all the blame on us, which is already happening right now.

I think I-485 filing clause is needed. Please note that the USCIS is not staffed enough. So there is a high possibility that the priority date retrogression will continue even if all the current provisions included in the Frist bill is passed. They will retain the retrogression in order to control the number of applications. In such a scenario, it is important for us to try and introduce the I-485 clause, so that people could get their EAD while they wait for USCIS to clear the mess. My 2 cents.
if this presesnt clauses r there..i think its enuf for us to et the dates current...recapturing unused visas and increasing visa numbers
