Why do we always equate some educational qualification from some institute to capability? Remember Einstein, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Cornegie, Rockefeller.... list goes on.
Vow, what are you suggesting? Everybody should drop out? People like Einstein, Bill Gates etc are one in a multi-million chance, 99.9% dropouts don't fall into that category. There is a reason people from elite institutes are respected/sought after. Agreed, there may be some totally incompetent inspite of being from a Tier1 school, but whats the percentage of such people? 0.01 %?

My attorney sent an email inquiry to DOL regarding my case. Within less than 12 hours a response was received -
<BEGINNING>
Case: (A-xxxxx-xxxxx) is still in process and official correspondence will be forthcoming.
Applications are processed in the order they are received. Once the Analyst reaches your case in their queue, based on the principles of FIFO (first in first out) it will be reviewed and official correspondence will be issued.
However, because each application is unique, processing times may vary depending on the specific circumstances of the case.
The policy of the U.S. DOL/ETA National Office prohibits the expediting of applications.
We apologize for the delay.
blah blah...
<END>
It probably wouldn't take them much longer to just approve or deny my case. It's amazing how they are quick with anything that is NOT productive. Don't you just love it when they used the term "FIFO" as though they knew what it really meant? I am a positive person but it's sad and enraging to me that I have to subject certain aspects of my life to a system so dysfunctional and about as modern as Flintstone's automobile. It's said that governments are designed to be bureaucratic, which I do not disagree with. But this system is terribly impaired and down right chaotic from time to time. That is beyond bureaucracy.
Many people in this society sometimes take on a very convenient attitude toward this issue. "If you don't like it you can leave." But on the other hand they turn around and bark just as madly when they think the government is not doing something right that matters to them. This is not about staying or leaving or any other such choices in life. This is about equal rights. This is simply about people getting their jobs done. To what's broken and what's rotten in the immigration system, I say we all work for a paycheck and we all have a job to do. Difference is I make sure I deliver what I'm paid for and you aren't capable of the same. For this reason I'll still be around right here long after you are eliminated and replaced.
Sorry for the 'rant' after I've exercised the only tool available in this situation, email inquiry to DOL, and received a totally meaningless but well expected result. Feel free to do the same then you can post it here so we can compare and see if they made any typo. I doubt they will because it has to be a simple copy-n-paste job...but again with them you never know. :o

I am in - along with my husband (and he is going to kill me for signing him up ...he he) for the Houston 5K run - lets start with that and see if I can finish..I'll take on more if I have success with this!
BTW, there is also a kids run for children ages 5 to 15 (K - 8) - my kids won't qualify for it, but those that have kids in this age group can truly train as a family.

Hi, Did somebody take advantage of the new rule of H1-H4 decoupling where one can use the time spent in H4 in H1? or can somebody confirm that this rule is in place and a law ? Please let me know.
my wife worked for 31/2 years on H1/L1 before changing status to H4. After 4 years on H4, she recently got a job and he H1 was approved in 2 days under premium processing. So the decoupling rule is effective.

Now this is what is going to happen.
Because DOS and USCIS screwed up big time playing loosely with laws and expecting no reprisals for their actions, they will now beg/borrow for the lost visa numbers and make them available for July filers.
I see no escape route for the mess up. Rice, who did not pay any attention to this fisco gave her on the lip casual response to MSNBC reporter.
It looks like this issue is bigger than Iraq from security stand point of view and also with latest information of Al-Qaeda making statements to get into US for attacks.
I would be very surprised if they start working on cases submitted in July even if current and they get extra visa numbers. There are people like me who had submitted thier I-485s (with I-140) under EB2 back in August 2006 and were current back then. I'm still waiting.

the quality of students in tier two or three universities in US and India are more or less on par but for the methodology.Also I do not see any logic in the argument for a direct comparison between Indian educated and US educated unless they have graduated from a top tier (i mean the top 10%) as the seletion process in these institutes are the only ones which is based on the academic calibre and intellectual profile of the candidate rather than a lowered stipend or willingness to spend long hrs in the lab, which a prof must consider while admitting a student for a graduate program in US ....superior written and communication skills can be easily acquired by adaptation to the new environment. However I have seen many Indian educated professionals adapting much faster than many of my US educated friends
I will back you up on this:)
Unless one has studied in the US, one will not realize the worth of the US educational system. One clear attribute of US educated professionals is their superior written and verbal communication skills. Not to mention the enhanced ability to culturally fit in a diverse environment.

Just one point Slumdog -- You know, I have never seen anyone who rents, writing this kind of a story and justifying his decision. I wonder, why not? Why do YOU have to justify over here? Are you justifying to others or you are justifying to yourself?
You put too much stress on "quality of life". One can have a good quality of life in a small apartment.
I keep telling my wife that our apartment looks small only when she goes to department stores and shops like crazy. Our walk-in-closet is the nearest thing to a Black Hole. Mass density is so high in that area that pretty soon even light would not come out of it.
I strongly believe in "Simple Living, High Thinking". I can not say I implement it all the time, however, I try to keep it in my mind during my decision making process.
Slumdog, You have great writing skills.

Watch your language pal.FYI I am highly educated,and that is reflected in my thoughts and my words,not to mention my motive to discredit ideas that will not fly.Also,you need to work on your language construction skills and English, and then may be you can come up with ideas benefit a community such as IV.

I know it is not correct way. But those who are waiting for long time worth to try. Anyhow most of the persons are eligible to file 485. Few thousand substitutions will not make much difference.

My EAD has been pending for almost more then 60+ days. I have got my FP done almost a month ago. No LUD's nothing.
When i tried to get some information calling the 800 number, they wont talk and say that the information on the automated system is the latest.
Has anyone been able to talk to any IO and get any information about their case. I am working on EAD and it will be expiring in another 45 days or so, i am just getting worried.
Any help will be appreciated.

Wendall, thanks!
No I did not see any LUDs. I checked the case status about 4 times during the day yesterday and did not see any LUDs and suddenly around 3.30pm got the welcome email. What is your RD? Looks like they are going by Rds. Hope you hear the good news soon !!!
Congratulations Lasantha!!!
My PD is Feb 2005 at TSC, since my PD became current on the 1st April, I have not seen any LUDs on my USCIS account.
Accordingly, I was wondering what was your experience?
Specifically did you get any LUDs before you received the "Welcome New Resident" e-mail?
Thanks!

Hi All,
I m currently in USA on H4 visa, filed for h1b this year and got approved. My question is do i need to go out of USA and get it stamped first and then work here. Or can i work from October 2007 and then get it stamped whenever i visit India.
Thanks,
Lisa
You can start working in USA after 1st Oct. without getting a stamp. I think you need to inform USCIS about changing status within USA from H4 to H1 with some form (I529??). You can get H1 stamp when you visit India.

What is the advantage of claiming trader status on your tax return? I buy / sell shares on different days of the week (example: Buy on Monday, Sell on Friday). Does that make me a day trader?
I am doing this on H1B. I do have approved EAD.

With all respects, ,may I request to keep this thread only
for CIR updates?
Like many of you, I'm also affected by this. My wait is almost
8 years now. I dont blame any body because I'm from a country
where beaurocracy and corruption is more than this country. I dont
blame anyone because it was my choice to come here and it was
my choice to apply for a GC. Nobody forced me. I've always a chance
to leave at my will. My strength is the belief that my gods will never
let me down.
Now I respectfully request everybody to update just the CIR updates
on this thread.
thanks for your
understanding.
