We truly dont care if we can get all the goodies or not - something is better than nothing as far as we are concerned. The starting point is for the lawmakers to SCHEDULE the bill first - what can be passed and what cannot will be decided by the (endless) debates in house and senate. I dont think the decision to schedule a bill is based on what its opponents/supporters think - if that were the case CIR would never even have been discussed, let alone passed by the senate. To the best of my knowledge, scheduling any bill is upto the respective house and senate judiciary committee /immigration sub-commitee chairmen, the majority/minority leaders and the unavoidable backroom politics that is always involved. Thats the first bridge to cross.
Point being, now is not the time to wonder if we are asking "too much". In any case, I would think the big corporates - the true drivers of SKIL - pretty darn know what the hell to ask and how to get congress to pass it. What is out of theirs - and our- hands is the politics of it all.
Looks like the recent news is not good for CIR or Skill bill. It may take atleast 4 months or more for immigration reform if anyone lobbying for cIR or SKill. CIR is so much complicated and no end for discussion. Similarly Skill bill is asking too much on immigration numbers mainly for H1. raising H1 numbers to 115k may be easy to pass. But problem is market based increase and exemption to MS people. Those will have huge impact in future. Because now Universities staring to to allow 3 year degree for MS. People can fear that too much h1 can reduce job demand and bring down wages. Infact it is going to be problem for current H1 people also if US allows unlimted number of H1. In that environment only companies like TCS,Wipro can do well. So correct number is needed to balance between demand and supply. Because of high visiblity to H1 program EB relief also got caught. If any bill which gives EB relief then that may be easy to pass but people need to be cautious on numbers. Certainly Exemptions for MS or STEM will not get support and that will negatively impact the probablity of passage. Any case if numbers are too much then there will be huge opposition from anti immigrants and Labor unions. If we lobbey for moderate increase then chances of passing is bright. Anyhow it is upto people who is lobbying. From 2005 all the immigration bills failed. There were opinion that Republican House is main reason. That is true cerrtain extent. Anyone can compare the immigration increase or past 30 years. The successful legislation were only when numbers were more moderate.

We started a membership campaign in Colorado two weeks back. The idea we have used is 1:1 campaign. In two weeks we have grown from 24 to 40 members. Just start from the place where you work, make a list of afected people, call a meeting, give your state chapter yahoo group address and IV address, and ask people to join.
From the attendees, ask if someone has a friend in some other company. Make that person a contact point for that company and let the same type of meeting happen in that other company. This way slowly members will start joining the state chapters.
Its a slow process but it works. Sending an email to your friend will not work unless and untill some one talks to them 1:1 and explain that if they don't stand up for their rights ... no one else will.

Can some one clarify me why the heck you guys keep repeating that "screwed" word for applying under new system ???
Is this because of the frustration that we have to restart the entire process and loss of money or its because the new system is not good enough ???
Just trying to undersstand
For those who have been waiting for LC (stuck in BEC) for 4~5 years and havne't filed I-140, may have to start fresh and may not get H1B renewals.
Which other word will you use? Try to keep it somewhat clean.

Here is my suggestion to who ever complianing about the current situation.
1. The situation created by us. We are future immigrant by our choice. We are going through a system, some may say broken, not working, inefficient, but still system is there. If you want to raise your voice, do it loudly, so that people can listen.I don't know what is the desibel of the voice . If you cannot, then sail through the system.
2. For EB3 I&C, best option will be upgrade skill may be through education or exp and port the EB3 to EB2 and make clog EB2. After sometime, you will get same benift as EB2. So EB3 crowd will be reduce. Then EB2 will be retrogate and EB3 I&C will be current. Flow of Visa number will be as usual.
What do you think about my solution.
I am not hurting any cause. I have already mentioned that I HAVE contributed in each campaign IV has led. If I was focussed on a narrow group, I would not have done that.
It is very clear that Eb3-I needs a push. Such a push may come from thinking out of the box. A brainstorm may lead to some ideas that can help. I cannot understand how the questions I am asking is leading to any hurt cause. I am not trying to replace any existing campaign. I also contributed to the $5 campaign.
It is easy to say "I understand your frustration" but hard to face it yourself. Can a 2005-2006 person really understand the frustration of a 2001 person?

You need to get certificate from US agency(anywhere in USA) that will prove that your earned degree/diploma is equivalent to B.S in Computer or Electrical engineering done in any USA. I have applied for EB2 with B.S + 5 years of experience and to prove B.S equivalency I send letter from agency as a proof. I dont remember agency name but there are plenty in and around USA. I will post name of the agencies in my next post.
I don't think I got your point. What do you mean "evaluate yourself ?

Rightly said Devils_Advocate !!, one more thing is many Republicans support CIR too but still we dont have 60 votes to pass this measure.
Unfortunately, This measure is bound to fail when unemployment is 10% and politicians dont want to anger their base in an election year.
Hate to be the party pooper, but its better to see the reality than be lost in the illusion. The facts:
We a have bitterly and an acrimoniously divided Congress
The democrats are NOT together on this one i.e blue dogs, conservative Dems etc.
We have game changing mid terms coming in.
Democrats DONT have super majority in the Senate any more.
And MOST of all we have a president who has PUBLICLY said that this bill will not pass this year due to the lack of political clout.
This is just a ploy to rally up the hispanic votes by Reid, don't pin too much/any hopes on this, the writing on the wall is unfortunately very clear, not worth the heart break. :(

Tomorrow (Thursday) House Immigration Sub-Committee is planning on mark up bill HR5882 to recapture unused green cards. This is an extremely IMPORTANT development. We are hoping that an agreement could be reached prior to the vote so that this bill is not rejected based no party line vote. As such all members are requested to PLEASE PLEASE call the following members on the subcommittee requesting them to support Congresswoman Lofgren's bill H.R.5882 to recapture unused green cards.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BACKGROUND & TALKING POINTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HR5882 was sponsored by Congresswoman Lofgren and Congressman Sensenbrenner. This bill recaptures all the unused visa numbers that have been lost since 1992 due to processing delays in Employment based category and Family category. It is estimated that 216000 green cards will be recaptured which would help to eleviate the employment based backlogs.
Please use the instructions provided below to make the phone calls.
(1) Call the congressman/woman office and request to speak with the aide who handles Legislative and Immigration matters
2) If they are not available leave a VM for them -
"I would like Representative "Representative Name" to support HR 5882, bill to recapture the green cards lost due to processing and bureaucratic delays. As you may already know that this is a bi-partisan bill with wide bipartisan support in the house and will help improve American competitiveness & reduce the back logs associated with USCIS. This bill is non controversial measures that will help US to stay competitive with a highly educated and skilled work force and address family based backlogs also.
To All congress-critters:
In a nutshell, this bill allows USCIS to manage their workflow more effectively, which provides better customer service, and will eventually lead to better turn-around times.
To Democrats: More people will be able to get their citizenship in reasonable times.
To Republicans: Companies will be able to attract more talent which improves economic performance."
(3) As usual Do NOT get into the CIR issue or illegal Immigration. If the aide is confusing with CIR or illegal immigration, just tell them that these are legal immigration bills.
(4) If the aide asks whether you belong to the district or not, tell them NO if you don't. Mention to them that you already spoke with your representative and would like the congressman/congresswoman
support.
The list of key representatives along with their contact information is provided in this post.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If asked please say that you are a member of Immigration Voice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the staffer ask - "did you call the representative in your area", say that -
"Yes I did. Congressman/Congresswoman is a prominent member of Immigration Sub-committee which makes him a national figure of great importance. Congressman's decision and support is very important for people inside and outside of your district and as such I urge you and the Congressman to support HR5882."

Assuming SA2238 passes... It will be the end of 'Contracting' for all practical purposes. A bonaza for outsourcing companies! Lots of projects and positions are going to get outsourced. Some projects may be moved off-site, as in big contracting companies doing actual work in their premises, some will go to India. some H1Bs may be lucky to be hired as "direct employees" by the clients, those who can will switch to EADs (which don't have such restrictions). For others, it'll be the end of the road.
so what does this mean now? I have little less than 3 yrs left on my H1b and I just started my GC process. Does that mean once I finish my 6 yrs, getting an extension will be a problem? Again I am assuming SA2238 will go through by that time....
Also, I have heard that in california H1b extension beyong 6 yrs is being rejected already stating that you cannot sub-contract on H1B
