Hey SmartBoy,
Thank you for efforts to calm us down. But my H1b transfer to the new company has been already approved and now they have reopened the one from my previous employer.

There can be several things that we want to discuss and share. But isn't this platform supposed to be for immigration? If we start discussing about Best phone cards, airtickets to india, jokes, unrelated politics etc., we will soon loose the purpose of this website and forum.
If many senators, attorneys, other aides visit this website and can find all this unrelated posts, we loose the seriousness and focus we would like to address.
Maybe core team can evaluate and see if they want to create a special section for general discussion that does not show on the front page. Just a suggestion.
This is not an attack on any individual.
thanks

and one more point, we are never going to get treated with respect and equality, just get used to it. every American knows we left our country to come to his. he is always gonna look down upon us. Immigrants are never treated with love, respect and dignity, no matter which country they go to. Case in point, Bangladeshi and Nepali migrant workers in India. We treat them like dirt back home, so discrimination against immigrants is part of immigration process. hopefully our ABCD offspring's will face less of it
Excuse me ?? Why did you leave your country and come here ? Your motivations maybe totally different than mine, so don't assume they are the same. For the reason I came over here, why would any 'American' treat me like dirt ? Many countries in Asia are not lands of the immigrant like USA. So your anology of treating migrant workers like 'dirt' to folks over here the same way is totally wrong. Please for heaven sake do some reading before you open your mouth again...you are talking nonsense man....people who are encouraging you are perhaps doing it to see you make a bigger fool of yourself...get off the forums do some reading.

Almost all Hyderabad house hold has one or more members live in US, who save atleast 15l/year and invest a lot in homeloand which would translate into sustainable stability in AP,India.
Unless US govt. declares bankruptcy, AP real estate would not burst so it would be safe to invest in AP.....
If an aparment costs 70 lakhs and that is renting for 15 thousand, how does it make sense to invest in it? The return on 70 lakhs at 12%(or 10%) is 7 lakhs/year. That is approx. 60 thousand per month. If you buy an apartment and rent it, it gives you 15 thousand. Don't you see the problem? The return on investment is low, very low. The fact that it is renting only for 15 thousand tells us that it is not affordable for most of the average guys in the city. The theory that there are more demand to snap up 70 lakh, 1 crore apartments is simply not true.

PD: Nov 2001
Labor Certification: March 2006
I-140: Approval April 2006
I-485 -May 2006
Finger Printing: June 2006
It took almost 4 1/2 years to get the labor certification and now its almost 17 months since my I-485 is pending approval. Took the path of writing to the FL, State Senator, Local Congressman and was fortunate to receive their response suggesting that its stuck in the namecheck stage and will have to wait for it to be completed. It has become a nightmare.... The only update in my case used to be whenever I initiate a service request. Now what is that which I can do to come out of this riddle....
Any suggestion in this regard is highly appreciated !!!!
Your application may be just sitting in their shelf because of name hits. The "in process" letter that FBI sends doesn't indicate much. Depending on how popular one's name is one might be in the namecheck hole for 4+ years.

I'm not writing this in my capacity as a core member, but just as a regular individual. Aman has selflessly worked towards EB immigration reform, at the cost of precious personal time with family, as well as taking vacation time in order to make the numerous trips to Washington DC. He has not asked for reimbursement for expenses incurred during numerous previous trips to DC.
The skilled professional community, those who are members of IV, and those aren't yet, must be extremely grateful to Aman for this selfless act.
He may not like me stating this, but this is true.
Several volunteers have spent hundreds of dollars out of their own pockets without disturbing IV funds for press releases, travel and so on.
One important thing: Money is an enabler for several things including operating expenses, infrastructure mobilization, etc., However, at the end of the day, solidarity and efforts count.
While IV will continue to require funds, members are encouraged to assist in other non-monetary ways as well. That would be even more powerful information for us when we get in touch with policy influencers. A recent example was the stories requested by Cong. Loefgren's office, for which we had to prepare several stories, requring us to get in touch with you all. Completed information will help easen this process
a) Please discard your cloaks of anonymity and complete your profiles with your information. That's the first step.
b) The next step is to increase awareness among the community, law makers and influencers.
c) Get more members to enroll.
d) Assist in non-monetary ways: How many of you have non-working spouses, friends, et al who can contribute focused time and effort(not money). In other words, volunteer time and effort?

Look at the previous post. Its a myth that NRIs are buying up all these high end properties.
Indian real estate market is fueled by the black money india. They are using NRIs as a facade. Investing in realestate legitimizes that money. Now they don't care how much rent they are getting. It makes no business sense at all. You and me cannot comepete with them.
Assuming you are correct. The black money needs to be converted to white money. So they need to sell the apartment at some point in future. There is no point in letting it sit there with low returns. If all these properties come to market the effect is the same. It drives down the price.
Otherwise I have to conclude that these guys want to repent their mistakes and doing community a service by buying properties at sky high prices so that ordinary folks can rent it and is made affordable. :)

Can we each leave a 'personalized note' on how much we have contributed in Federal / State / Social Security taxes + Medicare / etc.???? Even a rough order estimate... to get them to listen to us seriously.
Is this something that IV can help co-ordinate?
1. State-wise, collect estimates of taxes paid till date
2. Collect the data (anonymously, of course) and send a written brief to each Senator in that state - making a clear economic case to how we contribute
3. Collect the data (nationally, with statistical analysis thrown in) and send a written brief to all Senators - making a case at a national level.
We need eye-popping numbers, charts and quotes ... to continue the PR around high skilled immigrant needs.
Thoughts?
It is a good idea to collect the data. However, the collected data will be a small part of the actual numbers. So it may underestimate the actual data.
Rather than spending time collecting such information, lets focus on calling right now.

Hi,
What do you mean by IMG is very good?? Could you please elaborate??
Thanks
In Dec 2007 my dad got admitted to the hospital for 17 days due to DVT (Deep Venous Thrombosis). Total bill from the hospital was $48,000.00. IMG paid most part of it and I paid approximately $2000.00 as patient resposibility.

Well then why dont you picket against NumbersUSA, programmers guild et al too, i can name 20 conservative radio shows try emailing/talking them to change their opinion. I say this because i have emailed to a few and even tho they understand my point of view they will not change something that gets them ratings and propagates their cause.
IV has 25k members, i guess 10% out of those are really motivated to participate and ready do something, if you start diverting your resources towards such issues your team will not have much motivation or people remaining when you really need them to do something. IMO
Quoting Gandhi left and right is becoming pass� now, its like desi politicians, invoking Gandhi for everything. Gandhi did not oppose or pick a fight every monkey who was against indepedence, he was focused on getting the british out and by creating a mass awareness. Try not to take his name in vain. (this is not directed at your post, i have been following your well written posts for a while. It a general comment after reading the forums.)
What will you do if you have convinced ALL lawmakers but they still do not vote for you because of public opposition generated by Lou DoGGS? The FACT (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=98473&postcount=595) (NOT opinion) on immigration: In evident pain and remorse, a Republican Senator confessed to a Hispanic group from Maryland that his vote to kill immigration reform was “a profile in political cowardice.”.
Todays New York's Id (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=194883&postcount=1455) example:
Mr. Spitzer’s decision to abandon his plan comes as a poll released Tuesday by Siena College found that seven in 10 New York voters who had heard about it — and more than 80 percent of the 625 registered voters polled had — opposed it. It also found that for the first time, more people viewed the governor unfavorably than favorably.
The governor and his aides said that they were not reacting to the slumping poll numbers, but acting pragmatically. That the dispute had even tripped up Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, who stumbled to answer a question about it in a presidential debate, “was symptomatic of where we were,” he said.
“The issue was gaining traction not based on thoughtful discourse, but based on sound bites and less than careful analysis,” he added.
