got this response today ...
Thank you for contacting me about the DREAM Act. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue.
Our immigration system is broken and needs to be corrected. I agree with the principles of giving aspiring students the ability to follow their dreams, complete college, and contribute to our society and economy. However, I firmly believe the separate passage of the DREAM Act would hinder our ability to ultimately pass comprehensive immigration reform and voted against it when it came before the House in December. We need comprehensive immigration reform now�for fairness, for families, and for our economy.
If we focus on only one aspect of immigration reform, we will not solve our problems. Such an approach unfairly excludes many important interests and groups from a solution. Employers need access to the legal immigrant workforce necessary to keep their businesses growing and should not be asked to act as law enforcement or punished for hiring folks with false identification if they made a good faith effort to authenticate it. Given the practicalities of the situation and our current budget constraints, we need to provide a path for legal status to those already in this country, not just for students or those serving in the military.
American jobs and businesses depend on a comprehensive immigration solution. Oregon�s own Coalition for a Working Oregon has done research showing how bogus impractical deportation schemes would lead to a loss of 76,000 jobs for legal workers in Oregon. This drop in economic activity would cost the State of Oregon as much as $656 million in revenue and lower small business income by 8.5 percent. It is time now for comprehensive immigration reform. It is the right thing to do for those who want to contribute to America, for our economy, and for our country. Half measures no matter how well intended undermine our ability to get to the real solution�comprehensive immigration reform.
Although the House of Representatives passed the DREAM Act on December 8, 2010, the Senate failed to invoke cloture, the procedural vote that is required to end debate and allow a final vote. As a result, the DREAM Act was not considered by the Senate prior to the end of the 111th Congress and legislative efforts must begin again in the 112th Congress. Please be assured I will keep your opinions in mind as the debate continues.
It is a privilege to serve you in the United States Congress.
Sincerely,
Kurt Schrader
Member of Congress

BREAKING NEWS: LOFGREN GIVES USCIS THREE DAYS TO ANSWER QUESTIONS
http://blogs.ilw.com/gregsiskind/
Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), chair of the House Immigration Subcommittee, sent Secretary Chertoff a list of questions and a request for documents from USCIS to get to the bottom of the whole Visa Bulletin fiasco. The letter is very interesting not just because it puts a heck of a lot of pressure on DHS right now, but also because Lofgren's folks imply from the questions that USCIS was short circuiting established security clearance procedures to "pre-request" visa numbers from DOS. If it turns out full security clearances were not carried out, USCIS will either need to say that they had the legal justification (which would be a public relations disaster for the agency) or that they intended to complete the checks after the fact (which would be a direct violation of their own regulations). The only way to avoid answering the questions and to make this go away would be to eat crow and start working the case July cases.
Here's the link for the letter Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren wrote: http://blogs.ilw.com/gregsiskind/files/letter_to_chertoff_re_visa_bulletin_issues_july_9_ 2007.pdf. She really is taking them to task here. Wow!
Thanks,

Folks,
I got greened today, surprisingly. Could anyone let me know what are the good numbers to reach a human in USCIS, hopefully with less wait time. I wanted to check with them what address they have on file. I filed an address change in JUne but I am not sure if they have it right in their systems. Also, is there a way to get this information without calling them.
Thanks a lot ..

This is not a bad idea. But having to wait 5 years for your citizenshipis is only a minor inconvenience compared to all the other more pressing problems we have right now with the retrogression. So I think we should be more concerned with issues like visa recapture, getting USCIS to be more efficient so the visas will not go to waste each year etc. If we can get all these things acheived then your suggestion would be a nice icing on the cake.
I was wondering if any one in the core or other members think about the next step towards getting citizenship after passing the hurdles of getting the green card. If a person is here for 10 years and then get his green card (average period), then he need to wait for another 5 years to get the citizenship. 15 years for this process in a person's life is too much.
IV Core can push or lobby for a law which can make the person a US citizen, if he is living in US for 10 years legally without any issues and paying taxes for the entire period. It is just my idea.

A modest suggestion:
Talk to lawmakers about the redundancy of the Labour Certification and the Quota processes.
Explain it this way. An employer needs someone for a job. They advertise the job, and find no qualified Americans for the job. They get the Secretary of Labour to certify that there are no Americans for the job (BTW, that's what a "Labour Certificate" is...it the US Department of Labour certifying there are no Americans qualified to do your job!).
Then that company, who has a need for an employee, needs to wait up to 10 years to hire someone permanently for that job (that's the Visa Number quota system). This is horrible for business productivity.
Either one of these systems is reasonable by itself. They both serve to prevent a swamping of the US labour market by "cheap" immigrant labour. But both combined together serve to seriously hinder business productivity, while doing nothing additional to protect American workers.
I've found that every American that I walk through this hypothetical all look at me incredulously and say "It's that screwed up?"

Myself and my spouse applied for EAD Renewal on 04/20/2010, sent to TSC by lawyer.
Got receipt by postal mail on 05/04/2010 and got email yesterday that oth EAD are approved.
Actually current EAD expires at end of July, but we did apply before as we were told so to avoid unexpected delays in approvals as lot of new things are happening in service centers.
Also this is related to Drivers License renewal and in some states many rules changed (eg VA MD,CA ). Many new security features are enclosed.
Previously , once we provide all documentation required immediately new DL with new expiration date is issued. Now a days , DL issue process has changed in many states. Finger prints are taken and DL with enhanced security features are being issued.
This whole process of issuing new DL is taking 2-4 weeks.
Would like to mention some things regarding application.
Our Attorney is very good one and has lot of patience. He will never take chance by sending partial paperwork or giving some information to saisfy us.
100 % professional.
Till now we applied for 3 EAD Renewals and couple of AP renewals
He always asks us to send documents as specified below to avoide any possible queries etc.
1. Copies of all EAD, Front and Back color copies.
2. Copies of EAD Mailer forms for which EAD are attached.
3. Copy of DL (Front, Back)
4. Copies of all H1B &H4
5. Copies of all Passports (32 pages - 1st page in color)
6. Copy of latest I94
7. 2 Recent PhotoGraphs
8. Check for $340.00 (Pay to oredr of Department Of Homeland Security).
Previously, as soon as checks are cashed there used to be Redceipt Numbers (Like SRC, LIN etc) on back. But not any more.
We need not worry whether receipt number is on back of encashed check or not.
Even though many of us are getting approvals in a month or so, please dont count on this. It will be safe and better for applicants to send renewal applications at least before 90 days. Probability is that we might lose a month or 2, but this is worth taking in to all things in to consideration.
Have A Good Weekend Guys!!
