I always tried to keep my life not effected by GC even used AC21 to change company, but at this time i am really frustated as I am losing many opportunites which are directly related to my GC.
I don''t feel America is an immigrant country any more we may well be make an history here as the first batch of legal immigrants returning back to our own country.
It is naive to think that law makers does not understand our plight, they are very well aware, they just need more H1bs, temp workers program to bring in slaves to work for their benifit

What is the advantage of claiming trader status on your tax return? I buy / sell shares on different days of the week (example: Buy on Monday, Sell on Friday). Does that make me a day trader?
I am doing this on H1B. I do have approved EAD.
while on H1-B status, one can do intra day trading in stocks, options, and/or futures, he/she can NOT claim trader status on federal tax return. Person on EAD can claim trader status and claim some trading related expenses to save tax on it.

There is no harm in adding this also as the fifth item along with the existing 4 items. :D
I think CITIZENShip years Credit or Reduction in the years is Make most sense for the highly skilled immigrant from India and China as those are the people who suffers most because of backlog and name check.
I also think we should stick to the "five year federal taxes paid" beacuse that is what they expect from normal family based GC holder. Also adding Masters and Higher degrees in the STEM fields attract possible more support.
We should not talk any where close to 10 /15 years waiting time as that is not what current system of citizesnship talks about.
Also marriage based GC already has 3 years after GC rule so it may beeasy to get it.
Making it more complicated like Percent credit for before GC filing, after GC filing, after getting GC May become hard and complicated to convenince politicains who might be amending those rules.
So Keeping it simple - 5 yr federal taxes, MS or higher in STEM, 3 years after GC - you get citizenship (all of these has precedents)

By Jill Serjeant
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - U.S. Catholic bishops on Wednesday urged the U.S. Congress to resolve differences on immigration reform and seize a "historic moment" to give all of the estimated 12 million illegal immigrants a path to citizenship.
Meeting in Los Angeles for their bi-annual conference, the bishops said an enforcement-only approach to immigration had failed and that stronger border fences and a piecemeal approach would do nothing to deter those seeking to find work in the United States.
"Over the past 12 years, our government has spent $25 billion on enforcement of our border. During the same period, the number of undocumented in the nation has nearly doubled," said Bishop Gerald Barnes of San Bernardino, who heads the U.S. Catholic Bishops committee on immigration.
"We urge congressional leaders and the President to seize this historic moment and enact a just and humane immigration measure," Barnes told a news conference.
"Either fix it, or five years from now there will be 20 million illegal immigrants here," said Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony, whose vow to disobey any laws that would criminalize illegal immigrants and those who help them has made him a leading voice in the national debate.
Lawmakers are struggling to reconcile a bill in the House of Representatives that focuses strictly on border enforcement with a Senate bill that would also create a temporary work program denounced by many conservatives as equivalent to an amnesty for illegal immigrants.
The bishops said all undocumented workers currently in the United States should be given a "viable and workable earned path to citizenship," not just those who have been here longest.
They also backed a temporary worker program and reforms that would reduce family immigration backlogs. Continued...
And now the church is taking this up?? I guess the illegals are not only potential vote-bank, but conversion candidates too.

So Monkeyman, once a person comes to US, he/she should never complain, obey the orders and become subservient, and if treated like dirt, should still shut one's mouth. Looks like you are happy to be a slave to the system!!
Personally speaking, these INDIAN (yes thats with caps) body shops are the reason of H1B abuse. But what can USCIS do if there are crooks sitting in Hyd selling H1Bs for few lakhs.
And people have either become so naive or are really desparate that they fall into their traps as was evident by some lady on murthy forum who incessantly advocated that one needs to get H1B before looking for a job!!

Hi guys,
I am sure it was exciting news for us to hear. However, it appears the Immigration provision were removed before passing the bill. This is another proof that the IV core are right on track. It appears like they have good information and that immigration-related bills and changes will be passed in immigration bill itself and not attached to other bills. I think the congress will address the all the immigrant issues in a new CIR or some new immigration bill.

Has somebody ever wondered if EB limit is 140000 why the heck USCIS is allowed to accept millions of applications at the first place?
Can we sue USCIS for that?
load a big gun, aim at foot, fire.
P.S: Looks like you dont like EAD, AP, AC21 and all these acronyms and would love to have USCIS return 660K 485 applications back to the July 2nd filers.

chintu ..u must have made a ton load on money on TARG..
>what would be a minimum investment ..100$ or 10k..
Its not true Chintu might have made tons of money on TARG.
This is called Gap up. Entry point for this day trade would have been at 2.4 and it went upto 2.5. Its a cent more from the entry point.
When market opens it shows 2.4 and you can buy at 2.4 and not at the previous closing price at 1.12.
Hope you got it...

And if you considered putting your money on all these stocks and calculate the Profit / Loss percentage, it would be anybody's guess how much would have been lost in a single day assuming you have have put in equal amount of money in each of these stocks yesterday.
I'm not against trading , Just wanted to show my constructive criticism.

My PD is Nov 2001. It became current last month. Filed 485 this month. Now I see people with 2007 PDs eligible to file. Can't complain. Take it as it comes and proceed. You are not a player in these. You are only a spectator.
All will be fine. Good luck.
Years we have been told priority date establishes your place in the queue.
We have spurned job offers and declined the new PERM process to hold on to the priority dates.
Many are still awaiting labor certifications from the backlog elimination centers. Out comes USCIS and says everyone with a LC can file I140 & I485.
People still waiting for LC with priority dates in 2003-2004 are seeing applicants who have priority dates as late as 2007 but with approved LCs through PERM walk through to I485.
Net result, USCIS is going to be flooded with applicants enough to retrogress the priority dates 3-4 years back as early as september. (Everybody with a LC will be able to file for I485 in July). So applicants with priority dates of 2007 are going to get EAD and GC, while LC backlogged 2003 applicants to have to wait for another 3-4 years before they can even file I485.
Aint fair. Aint fair at all. How can this be. How can rules be changed in the middle of the game.

;) Let's close this issue so we can move forward to another one....

Hi,
My daughter's pp expired March '06. We live in FL, so we need to apply to the Houston center.
So do we (a) apply for a new passport? or is it still 'renewal'?
(b) send renewal fees? how much - is it the same for an adult pp?
Believe me, I have searched all over, up-and-down, for any info on this specific situation (child pp, expired more than one year) but in vain :(.
Thanks,
Radha

Hi everyboby,
I have question about the "deadline" to get non-profit job. Now I'm on OPT and looking for non-profit job. My OPT will expire on 1/14/2008.
Do you know how long will I get the H1-B visa after I apply for it? If my OPT is expired but the H1-B visa has not come yet (but applied for it), am I still legal to work?
My question is: if it take, for example, 3 months to issue the visa, and I still have not get a job on 10/14/2007, then I should give up and find a community college to get a F-1 visa, right? Am I correct? So, is there any "deadline" in my case?
Please give me some advices....Thanks!
