qplearn. You are right.
But as I have noticed, there is a lot of misinformation being spread around H1-B holders. One of those is that H1-B holders don't pay taxes. I have now read it at so many places, if I didn't know anything about H1-B visas, I would probably have believed it by now. So we really should make a point to mention that we pay taxes and social security.
Yes, on blogger's sites, I have read posts that make these false claims. Perhaps, we need to tell the press this, although I haven't seen an article in a respected newspaper that makes such a claim (I could be wrong, and there may be such reports). Also, I don't know of any lawmaker who has said that H1Bs don't pay taxes.
My point was that we cannot use that as a reason to get immigration benefits. We are supposed to pay taxes because that is the law. These taxes are needed to run the country that we are living in.
We should focus on how we impact the US economy in our letters. This is my view.

hi kvranand / nik.patelc,
same thing happened with my wife's case too, RFE status change on 4/3 and then again a soft lud on 4/6 on my wife and soft lud on mine on 4/7 ... no status change... can you guys let me know once you receive the hard copy... i will update once i receive it...so far havent received and waiting for it...as we have only 30 days to respond...
We received the RFE for the Td vaccine that was missed somehow by Concentra. But since she is nursing now, we were able to get a blanket Waiver for her.

@GCmuddu_H1BVaddu why is there such a hatred in ur mind against me being not an Indian
i was just asking a simple help, and all you have to say is to find out about my nationality, never mind i never asked help from your kind anyways.
@krishmunn thanks for your analysis too , i had sent him a bunch of emails about 10 of them and he never responded to them, when i called him about why is he not replying to my emails he said i cannot have any email conversation with you, it did not strike me then why ? but after talking to all the guys here i understand why he said so, i do not know if this would be enough . but i am just preparing my packet to send to DOL
@PrinceVA i really appreciate your help and your kindness at least someone in the fraternity doesn't believe in finding the nationality before helping. Well i really appreciate your concern and i wish that you were a part of my employers team, but i have my tickets booked and bags packed . I would now empower people from all over the world to come a little more prepared on H1B to US. I admit to being dumb before landing here but i have gotten my much important experience which i will pass on through fake busting.
@apaul thanks for your analysis paul it helps me understading the situation even more.
to all the others, i will be going home soon and i shall disclose the name of employer here once i get an ack from the DOL. I appreciate everyone here and their help.
Thanks to all those who have given me intelligent advise
Good luck mate!! Sorry that you had to learn this the hard way!! Dont worry about haters like GCmuddu_H1BVaddu ,they won't help their own mothers if there wasn't a return for them! Maybe part of him is envious of you that you can go home and he/she can't since they already spent majority of their lives in the GC rut.
Again good luck mate! and let us know what happened

And ofcourse, EB-3 ROW would oppose such a move.
Read the term "Not to exceed 28.6 percent plus"That plus means EB3 total can exceed 28.6%..
No.... USCIS is not dumb...They have interpreted the law in the way they think is appropriate....They are applying the over all 7% country cap to China/India EB2 and sending the overflow to EB3 ROW..... It is not fair but it is not exactly illegal...The law is open to interpretation and USCIS has chose to select this interpretation......You can take a crack at suing the USCIS.....I doubt that you would get anywhere......The EB2 India/China might benefit from the lawsuit....But as you know not all members would agree on IV spending resources on this lawsuit because this serves only a small section of member population.... At a personal level you can gather a few EB2 China India guys and have a crack at suing USCIS....

No It was not a joke.
If you think you earn way more then go ahead and contribute more. I just put dollar amounts in front. Many desis here work at 55-65K per year and that is roughly $30 an hour. The ideas is get off your high horses and earn money through sheer labor to get the job of funds done. I see no problem with that.
Hey, dude, I hope that this was a joke :D
Because I doubt that anyone willing to wash my car for a few bucks is highly skilled. Personally, I prefer, give 1 day of salary - that's way over $25, and far more effective (I get paid more than $25 for the time it takes to wash a car).
[edited]
Huum, I rather thing that it was not a joke. No offense intended.
The dinner and movie is the best idea.
Actually I think that the other ideas to be "less than optimal", thus I thought they were a joke.

Well.. everybody is posting OPINIONS here, so whatever is your point there.
Can you quote the section of the US constitution that prevents discrimination based on "country of origin"?
Thanks for asking this. I found this: Civil Rights Division Home Page (http://www.justice.gov/crt/legalinfo/natorigin.php)
IMO, rather useful in our discussion, though not relating to the constitution. But if you insist, I might point you to the 14th amendment ...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourteenth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitu tion
Read the "Equal protection clause". It mentions this case:
The Court has also struck down redistricting plans in which race was a key consideration. In Shaw v. Reno (1993), the Court prohibited a North Carolina plan aimed at creating majority-black districts to balance historic underrepresentation in the state's congressional delegations
Do you agree that we can draw a direct parallel of this case to our case, where they are segregating visa numbers based on the country of origin?

As I said I am not economy guru, we can read history after 5 years. My point is gold was not inflation proof , last 50 years return was less than other investment types and high volatile.
If you are considering gold for investment how would physical gold differ from ETF?
For me it is easy to sell ETF from my desk since I would get same value as physical gold.

You can post a question and vote on others' questions.
We may not lead in voting or number of questions, but still should do our best. Lets not give an impression to this transition team that EB immigrants are not suffering from backlogs or are not concerned enough.

I know many people are going to blast me and curse for after reading my post but I think NEw H1b , greencard applicaitons , or any other route that leads to GC should be banned for countries that are severly retrogressed in EB category ...same for the FB based new applications....Doesn;t make sense..one side US business needs H1s so they fight to get it in thier favor but on other side the life of these H1b / L1/L2 guys becomes miserable the moment they get in the GC line.....

if you are unmarried.. Please check with an attorney before filing i485:
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_benret.html
"Luxury of Additional Time to Find a Spouse
�MurthyDotCom
Third, if one is unmarried, the I-485 applicant is given the luxury of more time to choose a spouse. That spouse can enjoy dependent benefits and obtain permanent resident status based on being married prior to approval of the I-485. This is a huge benefit to those who were intending marriage, but need more time for one reason or another. There is an enormous benefit to marrying prior to the approval of the I-485, rather than after. If the marriage takes place after the I-485 is approved, the case becomes a family case and the spouse can be stuck abroad waiting for several years.
Note: A spouse is not entitled to obtain the "green card" automatically simply by getting married before the I-485 is approved. A spouse who gets married before the I-485 is approved is allowed to file and obtain the H4 visa from abroad and enter the U.S. on an H4 status as long as the principal maintains H1B status.
