desi9333 thanks for the link. Nice one - even though it covers only Hiring practices, and not opportunities for promotions and progression.
The "Opportunity" usage has been explained much beyond Hiring in the other laws and related documents. Hence, an employee who subsequently faces discrimination because he/she cannot progress or misses on job advancements due to Visa limit restrictions is certainly being discriminated against.
......
You are wrong here. Equal Opportunity Law does not apply to Immigrant Visa allocation. PERIOD.
Example:
Employer XYZ has 3 employees on H-1B. Its upto Employer's choice to file green card for any or all of them. Employer may decide to sponsor employment based green card for only 1 of them. This is perfectly ok and does not come under employment based discremination.
Like I said multiple times, spend some real money to get professional advice from attorney. May be that will enlighten you. Talk is cheap and so is being in dremaland.
Good Luck.

Yes that is true. They are lobbying strongly for H1b though they are supporting GC increases. Actually with H1b you can stay unlimited years if you apply gc. So there is no urgency for corporations to resolve the issue. They do not have fear of losing you as you are going to stay in USA until you get green card
I don't think the tech companies are lobbying (strongly enough, if at all) for EB GCs. They are happy as long as H1 quota is increased which I think they will get in one form or the other.

There is a site called http://www.hvisasurvey.org which conducts surveys about the lives of poeple on different H Visas. They were lobbying for H4 work authorization and protection under VAWA for non-immigrant woman.
I have a suggestion. Why not ImmigrationVoice Join with HVisaSurvey and Lobby for more rights for H4 Visa Holders.
At least the H4 should be allowed to work if the labor certification is pending or the I-140 is approved for the H1 visa holder. Waiting for I-485 to become current is a long wait. Why nobody care about H4s. L2's got work permit because the big multinational companies who used a lot of L1 visas lobbied for it.

I flew Air France several years ago.
Had a bad experience. They had not issued a Paris-Delhi boarding pass to me in Atlanta. They said that I would have to get that boarding pass in Paris itself.
In Paris- they refused to give me the boarding pass- stating the flight was overbooked and that I am checking in 'late'. Acknowledged that the boarding agent was wrong in Atlanta. Bumped me to the next flight several hours later.
They have lost all my business since then. I have not flown Air France since then (and likely never will)

Dude, don't judge everybody with the same yard stick.
Gotcher has been very helpful for a lot us who are looking for anwers. You may not agree with his analysis for personal reasons, just keep it that way.
Don't try to just come up with stories.
Even if he gets some publicity so what? Atleast he is earning it by helping a lot of people.
i dont think its a controversy. mr. Gotcher does not agree with the interpretation. Maybe its a way to generate some additional revenues for his firm by increased traffic to the blog and potentially a class action lawsuit on behalf of the ROW people.

Thomachan,
We need more people on this forum and in the world like you!!
Very humorous insight and practical perspective.
Thanks for the compliment bondgoli. Being a person who has slept in the airport (floor) on quite a few occasions I have realized that people still somehow think that they are paying "big money" and so need good treatment. That is no longer true. The competition among providers has lead to their own (and ofcourse ours) decline. My kid always makes sure the nintendo ds and a few novels are packed up anytime the sentence "we will have to fly" is pronounced. Now we also pack up a few extra bed sheets and I am an expert now to spot the warm areas to sleep. We also keep turn watchin over the stuff when the rest sleep (ofcourse on the floor). And yes, we dont hold any hatred against the airline employee because they are "nothing" and can "do nothing". So friends if you see an Indian family sleeping in any airport dont hesitate to come and say Hi.

Its a known fact that the pay structure in Gulf countries are different based on the citizenship.
I don't know about the gulf. But Singapore and other Asian countries, pay structure is different for different race and skin color. This happens even if you have GC or citizenship from US.

Though H1b will be costly if CIR in the same form is passed but Most of good companies will overcome. .
is UNLIKELY to pass at least in its current form. Public hospitals, underserved area clinics, Universities are not Google and Oracle!!! They'll go under if they have to pay 5000 $ for H1Bs. People probably don't have the faintest idea under what kind of financial strain these are. There will be exemptions for universities and non-profit organizations.

Technical difficulties to implement what you said. Just post on this thread, I will count for you.
It is very important to send a copy to IV, it will be used in making a case during talks with White House and DHS. Please see address in first post of this thread.
I have a dream: IV team carrying at least 10 big boxes full of letters to show during the meeting.
And users should able to give numbers in that.. not just radio options..
And i remember most of the people are sending letters only to President not a copy to IV.
How does sending letters to IV matters?
Between my side i sent letter to president and requested 10 of my friends to do so..

This thread was dead in October last year. This guy MartianSoldier restarted it ( and notice he has only 1 post ) for just one reason - start infighting among indians from different states.
Anyone falling into his trap and fighting on the thread ?
Martiansoldier really belongs not on Mars but in a mental asylum. Please don't post on this thread unless it has really got something to do with PIO card or the Indian consulate.
Remember United we stand and Divided we fall.
@hpandey:
Congratulations on working hard to figure out where I belong but too bad, it wasn't worth it nor will it ever matter to anyone where I belong!
You might want to ask ameryki to stop thread jacking before you blame me. I did not start any infighting nor did I start the Hindi topic! I just responded to a stupid post by ameryki and I sure as hell have every right to voice my opinions. If you don't like it, do what you will and move on!
I've got to make myself clear about my first reason though.
When I mean attitude of the people that speak it, I mean the attitude of those that speak it to me after I have politely mentioned in English that I do not know the language and yet those morons begin a lecture that I have to know the language because I am a citizen of the nation and it doesn't matter where I live. The constitution of India does not state that every citizen of India must know Hindi nor does it state that no matter where in the world an Indian lives, he must know Hindi to be an Indian citizen.
At the end of the day, no matter what anyone says or thinks of me, I still don't have one good reason to learn Hindi! Yet, I am a Proud Citizen of Indian and there is nothing that people like hpandey or ameryki can do about it! This is the truth and so will it remain!
@ snathan:
We're not alone and I'm sure that you'd agree that we're no less Indian citizens than anyone that speaks Hindi. What we type here isn't going to change the fact that we're treated differently by those Indian citizens who speak Hindi and most of those that speak it would never ever change their attitude toward us for not knowing it.
I've got better things to do than help hpandey or ameryki understand what it would feel like to be in our shoes and I ain't gonna bother. Like I have my opinion, they have theirs!
Cheers everyone! It is time for me to move on.

If bill is passed Senate in 2007 it will pass current form for H1b. There is possiblity for failing of the bill is 75% now. Also even if Cantwell amendment is passed that will give relief only to high tech companies not for Hospitals or Health care. There is no other amendment other than Cantwell for H1b or GC relief in Senate
Only unknown is how House will handle. Now house is confident that Senate will not pass CIR(Infact house members think they can escape from this hot button issue)
But I am almost certain that Most persons who file I485 within next 6 months will get GC within 1 to 5 years whether CIR is passed or not.
right. i think it's within our reach to reduce that wait time from 1-5 years to 1-2 years at most.

Looks like USCIS is sending more denial letters on AC21 cases these days, a lot of VOs may not have been trained on AC21.
I took infopass this week to find out status of my case (AC21 responded to NOID and case reopened and lot of soft LUDs) - the VO was trying to be judgemental instead of looking at computer and answer my question. She said "If you change job and 140 is revoked, there is no way your 485 will get approved" and when I insisted her to look at computer and let me know status, after some nagging, she looked and told me case is pending and NC cleared and I will receive a decision sometime but not very soon.
Believe me, a lot of VOs do not know AC21 stuff.
In such cases, where the InfoPass people (IOs or VOs or whatever they are called) pass judgement on whether your 485 should be approved or not, does it help to bring a printed copy of the AC21 Aytes memo (issued in Dec 2005)along to show to them? It is an official USCIS document and it clearly states the following.
Question 11. When is an I-140 no longer valid for porting purposes?
Answer: An I-140 is no longer valid for porting purposes when:
A. an I-140 is withdrawn before the alien�s I-485 has been pending 180 days, or
B. an I-140 is denied or revoked at any time except when it is revoked based on a withdrawal
that was submitted after an I-485 has been pending for 180 days.

This is essentially what we got in July07, and this can be a great pain relief. Since it was done in July07, there is already a precedent for it?? Would it be an administrative fix then? Just a note , IV already has this as one of the things we are working to change in law, but I was wondering if it could be admin only fix.
This is different from what was done in July 2007. Back then all PD was current. This is to grant the ability to file AOS even when the PD is NOT current
