My cousin took a offer from a employer in CA few months ago who did her H1 transfer but the condition mentioned in the agreement is that
In the event the employee voluntarily resigns or her employment is terminated for performance or cause prior to 4 years, employee agrees to reimburse the "Employer" for the full amount of legal, administrative and filing fees associated with the sponsorship of the employee's work visas as permitted by law.
The employer won't do premium processing so my cousin paid $1000 on her own but she had to travel outside the country to canada to get a new I-94. The employer's law firm filed the paper work with canada embassy in US to get a canadian visa.
Now my cousin got her GC through her hubby which her employer does not know. She is debating if she needs to inform her manager and company as they might ask her to sign any agreement or give back H1 fees.
The employment laws in CA are different so how can she move (if moves within 4 yrs) to another company without paying anything or a little fee to the employer. I told her that H1-B fees are not too high maybe around $4000.00 so the employer will have to spend lot of money on the lawyer's to go to court to suit her if she left say after 2 years of employment as she feels that the agreement is one sided considering the time line.
Tell the employer that the "cousin" is pregnant and needs 4 months off. If the employer offers short term/pregnancy pay, he will be glad to process the resignation....or tell the employer ur moving to india etc.

I do not think USA is losing ground. If China and India thinks that they are Really improving economy Why can't they make their currencies free Trade? Why are they artifically Keeping exchange rates. The reason is if really a country is stronger then currency should go up and US dollar should become weaker. But India and Cannot sustain as the export business will go down for India and China if their currency becomes too strong. So India and China are looking for US and europe Market. So inter dependence is always there. There is lot of speculation that India will exceed US in 2020. But it is far from true. For stronger Indian economy India needs US Consumption. For that USA needs to be stronger. May be lot of human resources are there in india. But that will be also resolved in another 20 Years because still Inflow is more than return to india. 80% of H1s are Indians apart from lot of L1 people.

USINPAC, for instance, promotes its role in the India-US nuclear deal.
It has also listed immigration as one of its issues, but all it cares about there is family immigration, so all those citizens can sponsor their own relatives. A bunch of A$^#^
himu73, why don't you try to contact these two oganizations + USINPAC to see what kind of traction you can get? The core is busy and needs all the help it can get. Are you upto it?

PA dmv sucks..dont worry ...try next day or evening in the same time form diffrent officer...they are some time stupid and they don't know what they are talking..
Take all necessary documents try more times..some officers gives some dont..becuase some of my friend has same issue..they got it...from diffrent officers...dont worry
I agree with what gcganapati said. Some of folks in these centre's have no idea about these docments. I had mine renewed twice before. First time, I did renew online and they sent a receipt that I took to the DMV center, no problem at all.
Second time, as we want to change the address, they started asking all the documents like 485 receipt notice, EAD, proof of address. It took half hour for them to check in their system (God knows what they are checking) and issued the license.
If its very urgent, try other DMV center's or pay the fee online and take the receipt and get the license renewed at the DMV center.

Hi,
Thanks for all the questions.
I will answer as much as possible without causing any damage to ongoing efforts. Please keep
in mind that not everything can be disclosed on public forums.
1. Funds:
We have about 30,000 collected so far. Major expense of running this organization is the fees for our lobbying firm QGA. Minor expenses include administrative costs such as website registration(one time), Organization registration in New Jersey(one time) etc. Other than that, we also have some advertising expenses as we put up ads on some popular websites. Sometimes we have to hire lawyers for certain org activities but those are minor expenses again. We are also paying for the webfax feature but not sure how much. Please dont suggest the free versions of webfax because they dont work and they DID NOT WORK during S 1932.
Please keep in mind that we are avoiding expenses as much as we can that results from members travelling to DC and so far all those expenses have been out of pocket.
QGA is currently working for us right now and we do not have to wait until we have 200K in the bank for QGA to start working.
The board members of IV(Board of directors) would decide if all the financial information could be made public to members on website for accountability reasons and transparency reasons without damaging anything else.
2. Labor backlogs:
Labor backlog problem is an administrative problem, not a legislative problem. There is nothing that is stopping the BECs from doing their job more efficiently as there is no quota restriction mandated by law on labors approved each year. That is the reason it is under "Administrative Goals". Would any law help improve labor backlogs? No. can we still involve congress in it? Yes. It is the intention of IV to draw the attention of lawmakers to the horrible job BECs have done so far as it is the constitutional right and privilege of congress to overlook and oversee the job of the executive.
However, if a backlog victims asks: How much of money/effort is going towards backlog and how much is going towards retrogression? I dont think anyone can answer that question. To be frank with you, this is not like cable TV where you pay $35 for basic cable and then you pay $7 for HBO and $7 more for cinemax etc. IF you think you do not want to contribute money no matter what...here is another choice: Use the resources tab to contact your local congressmen, write letters, send webfaxes etc. Use endorsement of Richard Florida. Prepare a glossy set of documents and drive to your local congressman's office(after appointment ofcourse) and talk to their staff. YOU HAVE THE POWER. ITS IN YOUR HANDS. Immigration voice is not a company providing a service to EB immigrants, its made up of EB immigrants who are serving themselves. See the "TEAM IV" menu on homepage.
[B]3. Sharp drop in contributions:
Yes, there has been a drop in contributions since one week. Part of the reason is that we have 30K which many members may feel is still in the bank. But please understand that we are using those funds and we will run out of them eventually and we would like to keep this effort ongoing until we meet our goals. Quite frankly if the current slowness of funds continue, we cannot last very long.
4. Contacting the lawmakers on your own:
Use all the links under resources tab to learn how to meet your lawmakers. Like I've said before, you owe it to yourself, not to immigration voice to work on this cause. Best case scenario of doing something: We make a difference. Worst case scenario: Nothing happens besides a polite reply from lawmakers' staff.

At the time i was 2 semesters away from my Masters plus the mess my previous attorney had caused, my new attorney felt comfortable filing under EB3 because he felt i would have problems at the I-140 stage if i did not compete my Masters by that time.
In 2001 my attorney expected to have my GC by 2003 the latest and he was not counting on this mess with DBEC.
Hope all of us are through with this nightmare by end of 2007.http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=2453

I sent in my I-140,I-485,EAD & AP applications to Nebraska Service Center which was the nodal agency to receive all I-140 applications during July -August 2007. They then would transfer some of the cases to TSC for processing. Due the visa bulletin fiasco, my applications were transferred to VSC for data entry and all my receipts have an EAC number. I received my EAD & AP and also a transfer notice informing that my I-485 was transferred to TSC as my job is in a state that comes under TSC's jurisdiction. But I did not hear anything about my I-140 being transferred to TSC. So we called up USCIS to check on it. We were informed that VSC would process my I-140 application and it was not necessary for it to be transferred to TSC unlike I-485.
My concern is VSC is taking for ever to process I-140's and currently are processing Apr 06 applications. I believe the dates have remained like that for a while now. Atleast TSC says clearly that they will process I-140 in 6 months, but VSC has no such processing times mentioned. Due to no fault of mine, my application ended up in VSC and is stuck there until some kind folks pick them for reviewing..which may take more than a year going by the current processing times. Is there anything I could do to have it transferred to TSC? Are there other members in the same situation? There is no likelihood of PPS starting anytime soon....what are my options to fix this problem? I thought under the new bi-specialization procedures only NSC & TSC processed I-140 applications...
How did you know your I-140 went to VSC?
I am curious because a lot of I-140's from my office (all filed in March 2007) are still pending approval with TSC. When we called USCIS for the status they asked us to call back after a couple of weeks (they need 30 days past the 6 months processing timeline). I am curious if these apps in fact got re-routed to some other service center. I hope they would send out a notification if they decided to do that!
BTW, to answer your question, I think there is no way out, except to wait for VSC processing timelines to show up! (I assume you are saying they are not showing a processing timeline for I-140's at VSC.)

AILA/AILF is free to file its lawsuit if it feels the need to do that, however we have been hearing about them filing the lawsuit since July 2nd. And if they are so sure that lawsuit is the only way that solution will come out, then why dont we see the lawsuit yet ? After all, private parties and smaller lawfirms have filed lawsuit so what's the hold-up at AILA/AILF if they are so sure that no solution is possible without lawsuits ?
Logiclife - I think it was a great idea to delete your post above - I truly think that the efforts of IV need to be commended but lets not forget that it was equally a combined effort of ALL stakeholders involved. Lets be humble during this hour of aniticipation.

We (3 of us from the PA state chapter) had a meeting with Congressman Joe Sastak's office staff in Media, PA.
The staff member was completely unaware of our issues (other than, FBI name check takes long time and USCIS processing is slow). However, she was eager to understand our problems.
She recommended that we should meet the office staff in DC since they handle issues related to legislations.

Well my RD is not current I plan to call NSC periodically to find out if my case has been assigned to an IO yet. If the next step is pre-adjudication, then great, but I have doubts about that.
does it reflect on online status? How else can we find out that one's case has been pre-adjudicated... LUD?? or any specific status?? or only IO can tell??
