I read dailykos.com, a liberal blog site, often. Recently, there has been a spate of postings there that are anti H-1B and anti high tech immigration. One example, from today, is: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/3/28/82450/4208. I have been posting comments as cacophonix.
dailykos.com is the most powerful and most popular liberal blog. Opinion that gets set there is influential with Democratic legislators. There is significant support there for high-tech immigration, but I think the tide could easily turn.
I need help from fellow IVers in refuting such ridiculous diaries as the one above. Please register and follow developments there, and please post responses when these issues come up.
I can't stress this enough: dailykos has a strict trolling/abuse policy. If you lose your cool and start abusing, you will get banned in a flash. So please be courteous.
You have indeed done an amazing job in totally making that diary hopeless.
Kudos to you for doing that and many thanks for defending this community on that site.

I was also lucky to meet one of their executive editors to whom I explained the issues posed by retrogression. He was very supportive but informed that he has been hearing from the other side as well.( I guess from NumbersUSA).
We too should be pro-active in campaigning to media about our valid cause.
I just sent the following E-mail to the Information Week Editors.
Sub:Your help requested for Skilled IT wokers to get their greencards
Dear Mr.McGee,
I had a chance to read your article about the issues
faced due to the H1B caps and the Greencard
Retrogression.("Time Is Running Out For H-1B Visa Cap
To Be Raised--Or Is It?"-Information
Week,Dt:06-Sep-06)
Thanks much for your insight about the SKILL bill.
It would be of great help if you could write more
Articles about the retrogression issues. Thousands of
unfortunate skilled workers like me have been caught
in the 'Retrogression' black hole and there is no
relief is visible in any near future.I have been
waiting for more than 5 years for my green card in
vain. We are in a state of limbo and are almost
similar to bonded laborers since our professional
mobility is very much limited.
People talk so much about the CIR and Illegal aliens
but very few people even know about the plight of the
LEGAL SKILLED workers.The retrogression has not only
affected my immediate future but it has also
negatively impacted the future of family/kids as well.
Our final hope is residing on the SKILL Bill and we
pray that it will be some how be passed in the
lame-duck session as you mentioned in your article.
Hundreds of Skilled workers like me have given up hope
already and are returning to their countries or are
looking for opportunities in other countries like
Canada etc. This also is having a significant negative
impact on US economy.
Just to give an example: Atleast 100,000 Skilled
workers are holding off the decision to buy a house
since they are not sure about their future here in US.
This amounts approximately to $30,000,000,000 (100000
X $300,000) inflow of money that could give a big
boost to the declining US Housing market.
It is sad to see that so many experienced LEGAL people
leaving this country due to immigration caps.
I kindly request you to publish a cover story on this
serious issue before the lame-duck session. I am sure
your words will have a big impact on the CEO's and
CIO's who in turn can lobby among the senators for our
cause.
Thanks again for your help so far.
Regards,
Sreekanth

Eb2 - India. We filed I140 and then I-485 in July 2007. PD May 2007. Got I-140 approved. EAD / AP approved for me / spouse and Kids. They soft LUD on I-485 after one week of I-140 approval. and My spouse got the RFE.
We just submitted a affidavit during my i485 filing in July as dont have her birth certificate at that time. Now we got RFE for my spouse saying that they need the birth certificate or Non-availability certificate. When we checked with the Birth Registration office, They have the birth certificate but with different Birth date(Her parents changed her Date of Birth during pre-school admission) - Now new DOB is reflected in all her Officical Documents(school vertificate, Passports, Driving License etc) whereas her birth certificate has the original date. Shall I submit the original Birth Certificate alongwith the Affidavit saying the mistake made by her Parents as the response this RFE. Since the Birth certificate is available in the registration office at different date, they refused to provide the non-availability certificate.
Gurus - Please advise.

Hi Folks
I have 2 Approved I140's.
EB3-I PD oct 10, 2003 - Approved - TSC
EB2-I PD July 6th 2006 - Approved - NSC
I filed my 485 on july 2nd 2007 - TSC
RD July 2 2007
ND Aug 16th 2007.
My 485 is based on the EB3 I140, My lawyer sent a Letter to TSC on June 19 2008 request to interfile/PD recapture, I saw soft LUD on my 485/140/131/765 on june 23 2008 since then we have not recievd any +ve information about it. Now with the release of Sep 08 bulletin, My EB2 date is current by itself without without any interfiling/PD porting.
I have called USCIS couple of times and every time i got the same old reply from them, "The IO will pick up the most favourable PD for your case." The sad thing is that the IO's are not touching the case. What are the options i have, Do you think they will pick up my 485 based on the Eb2 - 140 automatically since it has become current, Or it will still have to go thru the interfiling/PD Porting/PD recapture/140 amendment..../WHATEVER.
Thanks

Really speaking I care more for the dates to get current so I can add my wife to my GC application and get her an EAD and AP. After that I won't mind if I have to wait for some more time before I get the actual GC in hand

As I got 3 years ext. I am a bit relaxed about re-starting my GC process with new employer. Why rush, with the retro, it won't get me GC any sooner anyways so I plan to taste the water before I take the obligation of GC sponsorship from new employer.

That's the point.
I was denied ever $1 stimulus payment for 1 joint filer (spouse) being ITIN holder and from the way things are going it would not happen by 2008 either. If not $1500 why they denied even $1500- $600(for the ITIN filer) = $900 ? Why shouldn't i get at least $900 ....??
I wrote to her around 9:30 EST - dont know if she is done by now. I have given my cell phone number as well in the email. I can write and talk as much as possible against this 'ridiculuous' and 'unfair' mandate/rule :mad:
I am always wary of an email asking for personal information. I sent her an email and asked for her to reply with a telephone number to call. I have heard nothing back. She looks legit, but I need to be sure. I did the same with the San Jose reporter and he sent me his phone number. So that was fine.

I was in a similar situation.. not exaclty the same...
I had an approved I 140 and then I got the Notice of Intent To Deny, similar reason. This is what I did.
- I called my unversity and asked them to send me a detail syallbus of the courses I attended
- A letter from a third part evaluator
- An indetail letter from my HR as to what my courses where and how the courses pertain to my work.
- A detailed letter from the attorney.
looks like you do not have any thing to worry, if you took math courses and your syllabus states that then you should be ok. Make sure that you mention in very much detail and repetedly about the courses you took so that they wont miss it. Good luck I am certian you will be ok.
Just out of curiosity, how can they issue intent to deny to an approved 140?

Guys,
Happy New Year for everyone in this forum....
Sorry for taking this discussion into different side..instead of opening a new thread i felt my question is related somewhat to this...
I am planning to change to new employer in february 2009 and used AP on Nov 2008. I am planning to ask new employer for H1B transfer instead of EAD as my H1B is valid till Sep,2010. Will this be a problem as i already used AP..some where i read that, i may jeopardize my 485 application, if i do H1 transfer in this case, as i used my AP....
I will talk to lawyer soon on this and let u know but any insight is helpful from you all..
Thank you
Sree
Sree, even I have travelled using AP last year. My lawyer told me that it should not be problem for H1B transfer. I have not used EAD to work though.
My question is, do I need to provide copy of approved I-140 with my new h1b transfer request to get 3 years ext? I've already completed 5 years on h1b.

I am on 4th yr of L1+H1 & planning to work on EAD for another employer on AC21. I want to know if can switch from EAD to H1 if any issue comes in 485.
Once I start work on EAD for another employer, can I extend my H1 visa which is expiring on july 2008 from the GC sponsering employer? Or I can I file new H1 with any employer & have it as backup in case if 485 will be rejected?
Please reply.
Thanks.

Interesting to know this.. but it could be just the person whom you talked to.. did not mean to play down your enthu.. its just my thought as USCIS/NSC cannot afford to have another round of communication issues over the mess that they have presented us with "effective" communication between DOS/USCIS on June 13th and July 2nd.
