rpatel,
I don't think it is about being optmistic or pessimistic. It is about doing best with your life. One can do better than wait for 5 or 10 years on top of what we have already done for the green card in the same position with very little salary raise.
It is not only about salary raise. In 5 or 10 years with the right attitude one could really grow into senior management psotion. Will the green card be worth it after 10 years you are still stuck in same programmer level job doing the same stuff all over again
I am in my late 20's and am going to finish my 7th year next month...you decide how many feet of water I am in..:rolleyes: Meanwhile I totally understand your argument that the situation is the most frustrating for people who have been here the longest. I'd say sharpen you swimming skills and then it wouldn't matter how deep the water is or how tall you are....I's say stick with it and endure hardship if you value the end result (GC ofcourse). Even if you decide to go back...whatever your age/experience be...never forget its never too late..Gandhi was 46 years old when he returned to India from SA after spending 22 years there..Still wasn't too late for him to start a revolution now... or was it ?:)
May be you might also want to change your handle...GCby3000 doesn't sound that optimistic

See under section E.
E. EMPLOYMENT SECOND PREFERENCE VISA AVAILABILITY
There have been questions raised regarding the way numbers have been provided to the China and India in the Employment Second preference categories beginning in April. Section 202(a)(5) of the Immigration and Nationality Act states that if total demand for visas in an Employment preference category is insufficient to use all available visa numbers in that category in a calendar quarter, then the unused numbers may be made available without regard to the annual per-country limit. (For example: If the second preference annual limit were 40,000, number use by �All Other Countries� were estimated to be only 25,000, and the China/India combined number use based on their per-country limits were 6,000, then there would be 9,000 numbers unused. Those 9,000 numbers could then be made available to China and India applicants without regard to their per-country limits.)

Skills in general are typically formed by three components:
a) 1/3 - Formal hands-on Training
b) 1/3 - On the job experience
c) 1/3 - Reading, research on your own
If you have some indirect project experience by working as a programmer for example, I don't see why not you cannot do items a) and c) above. At least the PMP (or whatever certification you intend to take) will be ready when opportunities come and the training should help you expand your horizons. Good luck.
I really don't know, As some body suggested doing PMP, for doing the PMP certification you need to have a project management experience of few years right?

I recommend ww.usvisanews.com
Very responsive and efficient, from my experiance...
As I have said in an earlier post I highly recommend www.shusterman.com especially Ellie Njfabadi. The Best.
Another highly recommended person is John Dorer (para legal) -- www.usvisanow.com --- very very efficient and extremely cheap -- prices are 1/3 of what other law firms charges. Plus excellent reviews from all over.
Avoid Robert Lubin -- Good work but asks for money for every thing even to answer some simple question...
And again... no body can beat --- DO IT YOURSELF firm.

I have had good experience with Wayne Chapple Law Firm in Hartford CT. I am dealing with Attorney Taras, and he has been extremely prompt and has responded to all my queries/ update request in a very timely fashion, despite the fact that my employer paid for all the processes. They have handled my case from H1 to GC...I would definitely recommend him!

Seems like this is just a Republican backed bill. Dems will fight this or insist that some provisions for illegals be included as well. Also once elections are over it is possible that the Dems will be majority and then this bill gets kicked to the side.
is it not sad to see voting trends decide stuff like this.
I do hope to one day vote in this country (I voted in every election in my home country after I became eligible).
If the dems do "kill the SKIL", they would have definitely lost my vote in the future. I know it is inconsequential compared to the millions they will gain from the illegals becoming legal. but in my small way, that will be my protest.

I cannot believe that after everything that's happened over the last year or so, out of how many thousands of members of this group - just 199 of us called??
What are we doing as a group of people? Is it such a wonder that this country isn't moving on our immigration woes when we ourselves won't pick up the phone and talk to somebody about our troubles?
Wow-talk about complete and total apathy....I'm ashamed on behalf of each and every one those people who think they'll let someone else solve their problems - in which case I hope they don't ever complain about their lot in life. They have no right to.
Absolutely shameful...

There is no minimum number of weekly hours for an H1B petition. There are some H1B workers who hold several part-time positions. This is common particularly in academic settings where individuals may teach part time, or where a single position may be funded by more than one source. (This requires multiple part-time H1Bs.) Thus, potentially it would be possible to obtain an approval of an H1B for just a few hours per week.
�MurthyDotCom
Since nothing in the regulations specifies an amount of time each week that an H1B worker must work to remain in status, it is possible to be in status as an H1B worker with a part-time job. There is no guidance on this matter as to any minimum hourly requirements. There is some old guidance on H1B workers attending school, which states that it is permissible, but that the H1B employment must be the primary purpose for being in the United States. This might be helpful by analogy, but even this guidance does not specify hours.

That is right. But same country quota is there in EB system also. So in point system also 80% of people will get same quality of people as current system. But advantage is process delay will be eliminated.
Because of the country quota what you have said below is applicable to only people from India, because of the tremendous competition from Indian applicatants you would need the highest points , ms or phd, 5 years experience, employer sponsorship, and also relatives, but if you are from non Indian countries then you will easily get it because there is not much if any competition.
For example people from India might need 90+ points to have any chance but people from other countries might need just 60 points to get in. This is not merit based system, it is Kennedy Diversity Visa disguised as merit system.

[QUOTE=gapala;328433]The H1B visa belongs, in effect, to the company that sponsors it. You cannot work for any other company on that visa other than sponsor. If this is a transfer, then, In a so-called "visa transfer" what actually happens is that the initial visa is cancelled in favor of another one issued for the new employer. What that means is OP's work with old employer is considered as "unauthorized work". Do not consider this as illegal presence, as his legal presence is controlled by a valid I-94.
The above underlined text is not correct. When USCIS approve a new peition ( call it transfer if you would like to although....) they do not cancel the old unless the employer who owns that petition sends a request to USCIS to cancel it. :)

If anyone knows the history, this is pretty much happenned to Family based visas. 20 years ago, it was as easy as 1-2-3 and ppl use to get GCs in matter of months or 1-2 years. INS realized this and they started imposing processing dates and delays and what not and as it stands today, it takes about 10 years to get GC on family based.
They may have same plan in mind that instead of paying unemployment to PRs and Citizens, let's kick out the smart ppl who are stealing all the jobs and now their country is taking some of our businesses too.

Republicans are generally more amenable to legal immigration fixes than Dems. While not all of the Dems are bad, most of them dont care about legal immigration -- they just want the illegals. If it were not for these Dems, 5882 would have sailed through by now

It�s good that at least some of us are getting VISAs, instead of VISAs being lost.
However if this continues we could see a big movement to switch over to EB2 with or without porting PDs. This may in turn help EB3 :)
We need to make this a sticky thread, so that we can brainstorm and put best ways to switch from EB3 to EB2 w/keeping older PDs.

Transfer of the Earlier Priority Date : EB3 to New EB2
�MurthyDotCom
The ability to transfer priority dates from an earlier, approved, I-140 to a later-filed I-140 could provide an alternative for job mobility, both within the current employer's organization or with a new employer. This would be helpful for those who want to make a change but are not eligible to file the I-485 application because of retrogression. It also could help people who are eligible to change from an EB3 classification to EB2. One would be eligible to request a transfer of the priority date from the earlier-filed EB3 petition to a new EB2 petition once the I-140 is approved. The new EB2 petition would need to be based upon a new LC for a position requiring the EB2 level of education and/or experience. (Over time, many people with EB3 cases have become eligible for EB2 cases due to increased experience and/or education, and promotions.)
This strategy potentially could shave off a few years in the queue for available immigrant visa numbers. This may be particularly appealing to those who had EB3 labor certifications filed on their behalf long ago and have had their cases pending while they have gained advanced degrees, acquired several more years of experience, and/or are offered jobs at higher levels. Keep in mind, though, that this involves filing a whole new LC under the PERM system for a new job opportunity and that the employer must actually require the additional degree and/or experience for all persons holding that job classification in order for the new case to be filed as EB2.
