I posted the foll. in my company's (Igate) intranet site. Hope this will encourage others to post similar threads to build up the awareness and
momentum and increase membership which is the need of the hour!!!
"Folks, 20 years projection by Gopal, I believe, is a very conservative figure. Believe me, if there is no change in the immigration law in the near future, we are looking at 40 to 50 years( specially those filed after 2004) and not not 20 years. This is a fact and I am very serious. Some legislation similar to SKIL bill needs to be passed to get any kind of relief. There is an organization formed to lobby and bring awareness about the plight of high skilled immigrants - immigrationvoice.org. Visit that site, become a member,learn about the issues and contribute your might. Also mobilise support form friends,co-workers etc. Forget GC without any concerted organizational push."

As of April 15, 2010, approximately 13,600 H-1B cap (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)-subject petitions had been filed. USCIS has approved 5,800 H-1B petitions for aliens with advanced degrees.
Many immigration lawyers are seeing a sharp decline in the interest in the H1B visa this year by potential employers and workers. Some are saying that the downturn in H1B applications this year could be as much as 60%. As a result of this decline, there are predictions that the quota will not be reached within the first few months of this year. Rather, many suspect that the bachelor's quota won't be reached until the middle of July, and that the master's quota won't be reached until later this June.
We shall see how the number will play out in the next few months.

Nina Bernstein, one of the country's best immigration reporters, has a front page story in this morning's Times regarding 30 survivors of the January Haiti earthquake who were airlifted by Marines to the United States and are now sitting in detentions centers in Florida. According to the Times, these individuals were pulled from the rubble and were seeking food, safety or medical care at the airport in Port-au-Prince. When aftershocks struck, the Marines quickly evacuated people via military transports and did not bother with immigration processing. Because these individuals landed without visas, they were taken by DHS into custody and...

For the unmotivated folks - if the rally does not have enough numbers and does not pickup media attention - then yes nothing good can happen for you.
Lou Dobbs and Ron Hira will then go to Durbin And Grassley and frame a bill to give you more and more trouble
So you decide - you want to go to rally?
All the Tri State folks and DC area folks - EVERYONE MUST ATTEND THE RALLY

The storyline continues. Last year, 13,500 regular H-1B applications were counted in the first week and 5,600 advanced degree applications. This year 5,900 regular applications were received in the first week and 4,500 advanced degree petitions. USCIS just reported that in the second week of counting, 7,100 regular cases were receipted and 5,100 advanced degree applications. That's roughly the typical weekly usage we saw last year and if the pace doesn't change much, the cap will potentially be hit one to two months later than for FY2011. Later this summer as the cap starts to get a little closer to...

Congress Has Been Stymied By Bush, Republicans (http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/news/news-usa-congress.html) By REUTERS, December 11, 2007
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush wants it known the U.S. Congress has been asleep at the switch since Democrats took over in January. The only problem is that he and his fellow Republicans have flipped off the switch at nearly every turn, Democrats say.
"The end of 2007 is approaching fast and the new Congress has little to show for it," Bush told reporters in the White House Rose Garden last week.
Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, the Republican leader in the House of Representatives, was even less generous. "Nothing has been accomplished all year," he said.
As they excoriate political opponents, Bush and his fellow Republicans in Congress have successfully stopped most major Democratic initiatives this year.
They have staged an unprecedented number of "filibusters" in the Senate, where Democrats do not have a big enough majority to end debate. The few times that wasn't the case, Bush used his veto pen to kill Democrats' top priorities, like ending the Iraq war, expanding health care to children from low-income families and expanding stem cell research.
"Sadly, Republicans in Washington are determined to make this a 'no-can-do' Congress," Assistant Senate Majority Leader Richard Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, said in his party's weekly radio address on Saturday.
With only a week or two remaining in the first half of 110th Congress that convened in January, there's a deflated feeling on Capitol Hill.
Democrats and Republicans complain not enough has been accomplished. The public seems to agree, with just one in five Americans approving of the job Congress is doing, even worse than the unpopular Bush's ratings.
The legislative deadlock might get even worse next year, as election campaigns for Congress and the presidency get into full swing.
Ethan Siegal of the Washington Exchange, a private group that tracks Congress, said of Republicans' opposition tactics: "The template for trying to get into power is to make sure the party in charge doesn't have many legislative successes."
But even many Republicans think accusations of a "do-nothing" Democratic Congress won't be enough for their party to win back their majority status in the November 2008 elections.
PROMISES KEPT?
Democrats quickly fulfilled many of their 2006 campaign promises, raising the minimum wage for the first time in a decade, implementing stalled recommendations of the commission that investigated the September 11 attacks and trying to stop ethics abuses that plagued Congress during years of Republican leadership.
Republicans blocked many other measures.
A top domestic priority -- reforming U.S. immigration law -- was buried by conservative Republicans in the House. On foreign affairs, Republicans killed repeated moves to bring combat in Iraq to an end, despite Americans' disenchantment with a war now in its fifth year. Anti-war feeling was a driving factor behind the Democrats' success in last year's elections.
Popular legislation to expand stem cell research to help cure diseases such as Parkinson's was vetoed by Bush, as was a bill to deliver health care to more children from low-income families.
More recently, the House passed an energy bill that would improve automobile fuel efficiency for the first time in 32 years but Senate Republicans, heeding a White House veto threat, stopped it.
And Bush has veto threats on the remaining bills to fund the government through next September.
He recently told Arkansas business leaders: "You're fixing to see what they call a fiscal showdown in Washington."
But despite the bluster, Bush and congressional Democrats are at odds over a relatively tiny slice, about $11 billion, of the nearly $3 trillion budget.
Negotiations between the two finally have begun, but a compromise -- some war funding coupled with some of the additional domestic spending Democrats want -- was showing signs of souring this week, again amid accusations of Republican sabotage. There's plenty of incentive for a deal though as neither side wants government shutdowns to begin if agencies run out of money this month.

Hi - I am currently on an L1 blanket visa and it looks like my company will sell the unit I work for in the US. The parent company will sell the US division - I am currently in the process of applying for my GC - with the I40, and I485 both pending. I had my biometrics done today.
Want to gain some views on what my options are if the GC route does not pan out. I am on a UK passport, and would like to remain in the states. The GC is an employment based application - which is apparently quick, but I want to have a plan B. Is the next best option the H1B, and if so, will I be able to apply for this (if needs be) inside the US with another company if they are prepared to take me on?
Thanks
I-40 filed (28 March)
I-485 filed (28 March)
Biometrics ( 9 May)

Through AILA inquiry, I came to know my case details:
CIS electronic records indicate that your case have moved from the
security review area to the Case Resolution Unit(CRU). Will check
with supervisors of the CRU to find out what is going on with these cases
and if they can be routed to exams to be worked".
What does it mean ? What is happening in CRU ?
Internet refers CRU handles if case has multiple "A" nos or receipt notice delays....I filed only one I-485 application five years back.....
