How many times have you met your lawmaker offices in person in the last 1 year asking for a bill?
If your answer is zero or 1, then that is the reason no bill never sees light of the day.
If our community does not go out and meet lawmakers, their plight will stay buried inside the forum threads.

You need to ask yourself what you want to do with it?
Because, any paper currency is currency - it will lose its values over time.
Do you want to keep converting it back and forth depending on what the exchange rate is?
Things to look at: How easy would it be to convert it back to the USD? What taxes will you be liable to? What are the associated fees?
forex trading can be a lucrative business if you have the discipline and patience.
Another thing you might want to consider: Gold is at an all time high demand right now. I think that price will keep going up.
Do any of you have any information on Foreign currency CD. I am thinking of opening CD account with Foreign currency possibly with Indian rupee.
Rupee is 47.50 today and i think its the best time to buy rupees rather keeping ur money in dollar.
Please throw some input.
Thanks

Isn't it a relief? if the officer calls you for interview, checks your documents and says approved but no GC till PD current? I can live happily with it for couple of years atleast without thinking of GC. The feeling of getting GC in future 100% is almost equal to having GC today. You can change jobs on AC21 without fear and use EAD and AP full force and forget about renewing H1b's
Exactly, I agree with you. I would love to get such an interview call. Atleast after that I will be sure that one day i will get the actual GC.:D

This is USCIS memo, Read Que 5 on page 3.
Memo clearly says following things not be considered in deciding same/similar job:
- Wage difference
- Geographical location
- new employer's ability to pay (that's why it is absolutely fine if you work for your own/wife's company that started yesterday)
About a year ago, I changed job on EAD with 75% higher salary. at that time i had talked to a Sr attorney at Murthy.com and he had adviced me it is not a problem. (my 485 is still pending)
Only in the case where the new wage is simply unbelievable, it would be a problem (e.g. $20k or $450k for a s/w engg, beause there's noone who gets paid that much for that job)
So it's not the difference that would matter, it would be the absolute salary that could matter.

I was amused by..."Undocumented is someone who had documents, but lost them"...Bravo...!!
Are you now on the 'undocumented immigration' thing ? Undocumented is someone who had documents, but lost them. Called them using the correct designation; illegal aliens.

same story for me, i just moved to different unit in the same apartment. everything remains the same. Same city, same zip code, same employer.. Somehow i believe address change triggered the RFE. Probably the change in the file pushed my file in FIFO and someone looked into it and gave a RFE. Will have to wait till i get the actual letter.

Hello,
So yesterday (Saturday) was another surprize, a pleasant one again! I got a call from the same IO who told me that he got all the documents that I had sent and has cleared my case for approval, but now my fingerprints have expired.
He asked if I could come right away to his office and he could give me an instant fingerprinting appointment in the nearby INS office. When I told him that I'm currently out of country on business trip and won't be back in US till April, he said he will send me an appointment near April 15th.
I thanked him for his follow-up and he said he was just doing his job. I know this might be an exception than a rule, but just wanted to acknowledge this particular IO and hope there are more like him.
Just checking....If you are out of country, How could the IO know you number if you are on business trip? :confused:

They will not get I-94 for more than 6 months. You need to do following things to claim them as dependet(s) -
1. Extend their stay beyond I-94 i.e. 6 months.
2. Get ITIN number for them. (I am not sure how you get it on B1/B2)
This is the primary reason, immigration does not give more than 6 months I-94 on B1/B2 and avoid extending their stay....even if those are genuine reason(s).
My parents only stay here for about 170 days/year. Though, for every 30 days they stayed here last year, I can count 10 days towards their substantial presence in the US this year. That's how they can pass substantial presence without staying more than 180 days any single year. And B1/B2 visa holders can get ITINs. Undocumented immigrants who had no visas, in many states could use their ITINs to get Driver Licenses. IRS recently cracked down on this practice and asked all agencies to stop accepting ITINs as a form of identification and also made it harder to get an ITIN, but visa holders can get one. You may need to take the applicant (with their valid passport and visa) to an IRS office for verification. They can then accept the form in person, and return you a stamped copy of the application

Are you sure? Cause I did work with them, no one imagined the crisis of real estate was going to be soooo steep and also no one imagined that my i-485 was going to be approved so fast.
I can proof I worked with them from 2002-2006 (4 years). They gave me a letter saying they still not able to get me a job, i did have intent to work with them.
That is the point. It was not of your own volition.
Also, there is no rule that says citizenship is not available to people who do not work for the sponsoring employer for a certai nperiod of time after GC approval. It is just good practice to stick around for a few months after approval, but it is not law.
You will have no trouble. Change your status from bittersweet to sweet and have fun. Also, good luck finding a new job.

The media caters to its audience just like any other business nterested in its own customers. When markets worldwide rise or fall in response to election results in India, it gets major media attention everywhere because the audience is interested. Diwali is as unimportant in America as Thanksgiving in the U.K. There is no point fretting over it. Diwali could become newsworthy when people globally start tracking shopping sales in India since their businesses might depend on them. It's better to sharpen our skills so that we can seamlessly join the global highway than to sit on the sides cursing those passing by that they don't care about us.

I'm not concerned about he being anti-latino but he is anti-immigrant he feels immigration is destroying the American Culture.
well,
I think everyone should be concerned, because today he is anti-latino, tomorrow he is anti-Indian or anti-European...I mean, I really dont see the difference. I am not Hispanic, but I am very very concerned.
At my Grad school, we did a research on the gentleman in question and had a debate about different types of discrimination.
One is for certain. Today, undocumented people are very much in the spotlight, but make no mistake, all immigrants weather legal or illegal have been accused of stealing American jobs away.
The way I see it, we are all in the same boat...
Many people I know have expressed their frustration with the state od Education here "why dont we fix our education so that we can produce our own people so that we have our place in the global economy and we dont have to depend on foreign scientists"?.
Dont get me wrong! I am all pro-immigration, and you may call me an idealist, but I want fair treatment for ALL.
Lets refrain from any statements like 'am not concerned with XYZ being 'anti-latino....
these are public forums and our group cannot afford to be labeled as nonsensitive to others who are not highly skilled legal immigrants..
just my 2 cents

Here is the Chicago Tribune editorial on the Senate CIR bill.
The Senate's better vision
Published May 26, 2006
.............
The Senate on a 62-36 vote Thursday approved a far better plan.
...................
This issue is too important for such heavy-handed partisanship. If the House fails to compromise to get an immigration law, it will reinforce the broad public impression that this GOP-led Congress can't get anything done.
..................
Against long odds, the Senate has produced a comprehensive immigration bill that looks beyond the House's one-dimensional solution. It deserves to be considered in good faith in conference committee. Building on the lessons of 20 years of failed immigration policy, the Senate bill represents our best chance yet to finally set things right. It's time for negotiation, not noise.

Exactly....I don't say this a trick by USCIS to divert our attention but that will definitely be the result. Everyone here (except with the older priority dates) will face retrogression very soon. Please try to understand this folks.
Everyone will file for 485 and will get stuck in the backlog, before you know if, it will be Oct-08 and then they will scrap the old system and make everybody file under the point system. Which of course would be a nightmare as the USCIS or one of its derivatives would not be able to cope with the flood of application. At the end of the day all of us would be 1000s of dollar down and would still be posting here complaining about the process.
Bottom line is, with a limit of 20 amendments, one can be assured there won't be one looking out for us out on the fringes.

There is no excuse for the Immigration dept for this backlog. This is a simple clerk's job which they screwed. IV as a an organization should clearly state it and insist on fast resolution by the respective authorities, not just foggy promises.
I agree that there is no excuse for processing times running into many months. However, I would be hesitant to rely on the goodwill of DOL/USCIS in resolving the backlog. I started another thread suggesting a premium processing option for the entire GC process:

My 485 was apporved in July 2010 and have not recieved the card yet. I have contacted with couple of Service Request for non-delivery of permanent cards. First reply from USCIS was that my case was waiting for finger printing information from my local USICS was backlogged for appointments. So, I have told to wait for 60 days for either FP notice or physical green card. After 60 days, I have called them and another service request was created and the reply was completely irrelavant as they says my address was updated for my query about non-delivery of GC.
Is there any other escalation request that I can made for deliveriy the GC or the FP notice? whenever I called the USICS are creating the SR and have to wait for answers like above.
I have recieved the 485 approval notices (for both of us) on July itself but waiting for cards now. Are anyone with the same boat ? Or Is the unusual case?
Thanks
Rama
Contact your Congressman and Senator. Mine was also approved in July but the card came in November. Went for a couple of Info-pass, opened SR, called & e-mailed USCIS but nothing happened. USCIS is backed up on card production too.
