Scott Washburn: New Immigration Bill Not Going to Fix What Ails Arizona (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/scott-washburn/new-immigration-bill-not_b_544944.html)
Arizona is at ground zero of our broken immigration system.
People are frustrated and want action.
Action feels good. We see a problem and we want to fix it. We write and pass laws that seem like they'll do the trick: punish people who break our laws; deport people who don't belong here. Except sometimes what looks good and feels good, isn't always good. We end up with reactionary laws that waste precious resources and do nothing to address the source of the problem.
If signed into law, the bill would shift the burden of enforcing immigration laws onto the shoulders of cash-strapped local police departments who cannot afford unfunded enforcement-only mandates. It would exacerbate community tensions and undermine community policing and public safety by making immigrants afraid to cooperate in police investigations.
Most tragic of all, the state would be forced to waste millions to defend itself against the civil rights lawsuits that will rightfully follow. Similar ill-advised anti-immigrant laws in New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Texas have been struck down by the courts at great expense to taxpayers. With a record budget deficit, does Arizona really need to spend another dime on enforcement strategies that will do nothing to solve our immigration crisis?

For me, my AP was approved (along with my wife and daughter) on Oct 1st 2006. My Notice date is Sept 10th. The LUD on AP was 10/04, which said that the approval was "mailed" on 10/02. Hwoever I recd it on 10/20 and I could see that it was mailed on 10/19 from USCIS office. So, atleast for APs, even the status shows that it's been approved and mailed as well, it seems that it's not the case. It's been taking couple of weeks to get them in hand. Hopefully this info helps some people who are still waiting for APs.
I also took an Infopass appt, as we didn't recv FP notices yet. I opened a SR, but nothing so far. It looks that I may not get before I go to infopass next week.
Whcih center you filled your application texas or somewhere else

Hello Gurus,
This is my first post. I had filed 485/140 in Aug. 2007. 140 got approved this March 2008. I donot have pay stub for last 3 months. I am looking for change. My labor is a substituted one( PD 2004). It has skills mentioned of Oracle EBS. I am working on Java/J2EE. I am looking for a new Job with Java/J2EE skills. I am worried that my new offer letter with Java skills mentioned would create a problem for me.
Please Gurus, can you advice me as to whether I can do that? Will staying on bench create a problem, as I donot get salary on bench.
Please help me.

This MEMO also talks about length of stay beyond 6 years. There has been a lot of controversy involving changing job after 3 years H1B extension based on approved I-140. This memo seems to clarify that a little, but it is still not clear enough about implication of revoked I-140 on the approved H1B.
See Section 5, Page 7
Burden of proof rests with petitioner and alien to establish his or her eligibility....
I hope some lawyer or USCIS can clarify this once and for all. There are already so many thereads on this, that I don't want to start another one.

I was wondering if update is only available through state chapter? If so we are in blackhole,,, as many of us are not members of state chapter..
Or if we have more action items to act on apart from calling reps..chc and lamar smith ?
Neways.. i have asked for NC state chapter enrollment ..so hopefully i'll get the updates from then on...:)
there is only one action item right now and it is on the forum.
the update and action needed prior to this was handled by state chapters, however everyone is now up to date with what needs to be done.
state chapters are voluntary but very effective in initiating grassroots approaches to our problems, they have also proved very effective with focussed actions recently. a state chapter is simply a local community that networks and offers support. so it really has many other advantages than just a question of updates.
anyway there is no fresh update currently.

I worked for Everest Inc for the first six months in the US and I came through them. They were ok with me. Even though I left the company before 1 Year, they did not charge.
I am not sure whether we need to have a original 140. I never asked my employer and even they did not mention about that.

I am not sure how reliable is this and on what she has in her mind.. Just wanted to share the information. Don't give me RED for this.
May be she meant that they are trying to expedite your case.

You should be ok. The purpose of COBRA is to have a continued coverage. usually insurance is month to month, so the coverage nessasarly doesn't end the day you quit. All COBRA does is allow you to pay the next months entire premium and keep the existing coverage.
I tried using COBRA last year and in my case the gap was 3 months and my monthly COBRA payments were about $900/month, since I did not have any ongoing medical conditions or foresee any like pregnancy etc, I went for short term private insurance to fill the gap.
Pardon my ignorance Gurus.
But Hypothetical....what would be the scenario, if,
- I leave the job-A on 1st of the month.
- join new job-B on 2nd of the month (very next day) but new employer wants me to complete 30 days before providing medical insurance
- my job-A insurance company sends me COBRA option in two weeks time as required by law
- Prior to I fill and send out the COBRA docs (roughly 2 - 3 weeks), I have to make some urgent visit to doctor...say in 1st week (say, on 4th of the month)
- will my job-A company will deny this claim as they only received my COBRA paperwork by 18th of the month whereas I went to doctor on 4th????

This is really required. I am with you. I myself was stuck last year and had to postponed my ticket for 8 days. My wife is scared to go to India even if my father in law is not well due to this issue as managing kids will be way more difficult without her if she is stuck.
If you hold work visa like H or L you may need to get the re-stamping upon the extension of your expired visa. H1 status and Visa stamping both are different things. H1 approval is the authorization to work in US, and Visa stamped on your passport is authorization to enter into USA.
Mostly H1 authorizations (form I-797) are issued for 3 years, so the Visa stamped on your passport reflects the date close to this expiry date, unless consulate gives you a Visa for duration less than the Date on your H1 form.
Once you get your visa extension, it comes with new I-94. But if you need to visit your home country or need to leave the US for any personal/business reason you have to get the stamping in your passport to re-enter the US. Before 911, one can send the passport and relevant documents to the U.S. State Department in Washington D.C. for renewal or re validation of the H1B visa stamp in the passport when the old visa has expired or within sixty (60) days of the H1B visa stamp expiration.
But in 2004, the re validation division discontinued the domestic visa re-validation. So now all the member who are looking for re-validation must go to home country or Canada/Mexico. But a recent (in 2007) U.S. Department of State (DOS) directive to U.S. consular posts requires consulting an electronic record for visa issuance in non immigrant categories H, L, O, P, and Q.
The new verification system requires that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) send information on all approved petitions requiring visa issuance to the Kentucky Consular Center (KCC), which is part of the DOS. KCC scans and enters all pertinent information including Form I-129, employer support letter, and beneficiary's identification documents into PIMS. KCC also conducts database checks looking for fraud, violations, or other adverse history and records. A petition must be confirmed in PIMS by the U.S. consular post before issuance of the visa. The USCIS has not been transmitting petitions filed for change of status and extension of status to the KCC. Neither have all new petitions for consular processing been transmitted to KCC, resulting in delayed visa issuance to eligible applicants
Visa applicants whose information has not been entered into PIMS in a timely manner sometimes have to wait longer than the two days specified for visa issuance. There have been reports from individuals who have had to alter travel plans and arrangements to account for errors and delays in having all of their relevant information entered into PIMS
There are incidents where people struck up in the foreign country for 45-90 days due to this PIMS delays. So people need to go through lots of hassle including losing the job, could not pay the bills in time, lose your credit history, kids are not able to attend the school….
So this campaign is to bring back the re-validation within the US. I am sure there are lots of guys here with H1B and going through this dilemma. So all you people gather here and support this campaign. IV core is ready to support this, if there are enough people are getting affected.
If you or any of your friends are affected and got struck up in home/foreign country, please share your storey here. We strictly need only the first hand experience.
Based on the response and support, we can take it forward. We believe this one can be fixed through admin fix. All we need is enough support.
We need real people and real stories which can be presented to DOS officials and the media. I am sure we can fix this. so please come forward.

Agreed in principle!!! You guys have done the homework. I am just narrating my wishes:); and the wish-list keeps growing!:); man, cannot wait to just get done with this process.
Good luck and nite!!!
Guys, let us not get carried away. The Immigration and Nationality Act clearly says that the Attorney General shall give Employment Authorization to people with pending Adjustment of Status. It is just the duration of the EAD that is left with the discretion of USCIS.
People keep throwing around the phrase "Administrative solution". In this country, just about everything is codified by law. Some things, like the EAD duration, can be tackled Administratively. However, USCIS isn't going to give up a cash cow, viz. the fees from yearly EAD renewals, easily. It is a lot easier to have Congress mandate three year EAD extensions than to convince USCIS to do it.
I guess the argument that BKarnik is trying to make is that USCIS should be administratively mandated to give Employment Authorizations to people with approved immigrant petitions. However, in the last few months, I have been looking at INA on a regular basis. Most immigration practices are codified in INA, and I would be really hesitant to even ask for an administrative fiat to this effect. Remember, an anti-immigrationist can equally easily have it removed. When Congress passes something, however, it has the force of law.
I do not agree with statements like "Most USCIS practices are regulations, not law". Not true. INA codifies what USCIS should do.

Giving speedy Green Cards to July Visa bulletin cases will ease the Housing Crisis in US.
Above statement implies, housing crisis is because of not issuing green cards.
BTW, I don't have english blood in me ;););)
your implication is wrong ..you can imply anything from a statement.
the reason I support the above initiative is because it is the most cost effective approach. immigration will/does help housing since americans already have houses and they have fewer or no kids. so immigrants constitute a sizeable chunk. a person I had met once told me - as long as you make money for yr bosses and managers they will do a lot for you (we were talking about filing for GC's) - with the same approach if you include builders and car dealers - you could get them to support IV. but my view is since our community is so divided and selfish ..nothing will ever happen because of us. whatever good happens will be because of USCIS mistakes or else we will get GC's after the long wait

Is this still an active topic? or its dead? Are there people with US Master - STEM who are willing to come forward?
I am just trying to gauge this? To me, looks perfect candidate for piece meal while waiting for CIR, justification could be same as 20K quota for H1b, keep US educated in the country and keep contributing to US economy & society. It has two benefits, a) direct to people who have US Master, b) there will xx less number of people in front of who don't qualify for this so their turn will come sooner.
any leads?
