Because Republicans are blocking every bill in the Senate until the issues of Tax cuts is resolved, Sen. Reid needed to postpone the cloture vote on Dream Act to buy time to get more support. Senate Majority leader needed “Unanimous Consent” to withdraw his cloture motion and push back the vote. He did not get it, forcing him to offer a motion to table the cloture vote.
Tabling the cloture vote will allow Sen. Majority leader to bring the DREAM Act up again when the other issues have been resolved, and when there are 60 votes. We expect that Dream Act will surely come up for vote again before the end of 111th Congress.

when we do not know what is in the bill why are we assuming he will be calling for
adjustment of status to Legal Immigrants.
Grow up.................
If the title of this thread is what is in the bill then there are so many hurdles before it will even be voted on.
So relax and smile like pappu :) :)

I heard companies like TCS Wipro HCL (all desi outsourcing firms) have now started to again apply for H1B instead of L1...are they doing green cards too?

Actually the provisions in S 1932 (Sections 8001 and 8002) were dropped when the bill went to the House. The members who handled the fate of the immigration provisions in the house were Reps Conyers, Sessenbrenner and Lamars. It was argued that the Budget Reconciliation Bill (S 1932) should not include any immigration provisions as they should instead be included in future Comprehensive immigration reform. These sections which had already been passed by the Senate were dropped quietly by the 3 member panel in the final conference report. Given the rush to pass this bill among others, members of the Senate may not be aware that these provisions were dropped when they got to the house. While new legislation offers to increase the EB quotas, the provision to allow one to apply for I-485 (GC) and I-140 concurrently upon receiving Labor certification clearance even in the absence of a current visa number ( current priority date) is missing from the proposals, a key measure that would greatly alleviate the suffering of those who suffer from visa retrogression.

People accepting money are not Mother Teresa or Registered Charity. In this country all kinds of people call you, email you and ask you for money for all kinds of reasons. Greed happens in tragic events too. Do not expect everyone in this world to have a pure heart. This case is genuine but we need better management and disclosure on their website. This is a least you can expect from educated University Students.

My wife's EAD expires later this month. She doesn't intend to work; so does she need to renew her EAD? She doesn't have another status like h1 or h4. Will she be out of status when the EAD expires?
The bigger question is that I got my GC a few months ago; but she hasn't got hers. We had an interview at the local office; the officer said he's recommended approval of the 485 and we should get it soon. This happened 2 months ago and still we don't see the 485 approval. The officer also mentioned we could go to the local office any time and get a GC stamp in the passport. Is this true? Can we just take an infopass and get the stamp right away? Do they do that? I called the call center but they just say it's pending and they won't give me any information.
really appreciate your advice...

Any feedback on this is appreciated.
The basis for your AOS is approved EB3 I-140. So I do not see a problem porting to another company. That I-140 will remain valid. If you get approval for EB2 I-140, it won't change your eligibility for AOS. I am not sure if you will be able to port priority date. If you worry too much, you can ask employer to withdraw EB2 I-140 application. My hunch is that EB3 with 2001 PD will get approved earlier than EB2.

To complicate things further, cloture on 9-11 responders failed by 57-42. Republicans are not willing to let anything go till Tax cuts bill is undertaken.
The breaking news is the House Democrats have decided not to undertake Tax cut bill in the House, meaning the new tax cut deal announced by the President will not hold good anymore.
Its anybody's guess what will happen next. Key leaders from both sides will go behind closed doors to figure out how to make it happen.
Please standby for further updates.

03/20/2009: USCIS to Release Answers to Scope of TARP-Funded Employer Restrictions to H-1B New Hire
AILA has reported the USCIS update on this issue dated 03/20/2009. According to this USCIS release which may be released on its website soon, the people will be either subject to the new law or not subject to the new law:
Those Who Are Subject to the New Law:
Any LCA or petition filed on or after 02/17/2009 by such employer for hire as a new employee regardless of whether he/she is already in H-1B status and regardless of concurrent new employment by such a new employer.
New employment based on a petition approved before Feb. 17, 2009 but the H-1B employee had not actually commenced employment before that date.
Those Who Are Not Subject to the New Law:
H-1B petition to extend the H-1B status (EOS) of a current employee with
the same employer (TARP funded).
H-1B petition seeking to change the status (COS) of a current U.S. work authorized employee to H-1B status with the same employer (TARP funded).
It is a huge relief for those nonimmigrants who are currently working with the TARP employers who need extension of their current H-1B status or change of their nonimmigrant status from other nonimmigrant classification to H-1B, particulay in the FY 2010 H-1B cap filing on or after April 1, 2009. We salute the USCIS leaders for such lenient and liberal interpretation of the new law. For details, people are advised to wait until it is published in the agency's website.

I am in the same boat with you.
485 package was delivered by UPS on NSC and the tracking number shows it delivered on the morning of June 08.
However, until this moment there is still no receipts annd check is not cashed.
As Canadian_Dream suggest, we just have to wait a little more time and if still no result, I will submit another copy for the application.

there was a thread yesterday discussing this news. It is indeed welcome news. Atleast now USCIS should concentrate on FIFO approvals. There are just too many 2003/4/5 EB-2I applicants waiting in line when 2006 applicants got approved in a frenzy last couple of months...what a cruel joke! and for EB-3I, this news may reveal the total number of cases pending. Nobody seemed to know the accurate count...

To present our case, we need facts. Like for example
-Drop in admissions/applications/exams for US universities
http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/senate/news/source/intnl.grads.pdf cites "constraints on visas and immigration" are among the reasons for the decline
http://www.usatoday.com/printedition/news/20060106/a_students06.art.htm says "Rising U.S. tuitions, increased tension between much of the world and the United States and post-9/11-related immigration issues have all fed a decline in foreign student enrollment. So, too, has heightened competition from the rest of the developed world"
http://www.aascu.org/policy_matters/pdf/v2n11.pdf also supports that on page 3
-Number of people on H1-B buying homes
http://www.census.gov/prod/3/98pubs/cenbr974.pdf
-Evidence showing H1-Bs earn similar salaries/hourly rates, as rest of the industry
http://judiciary.senate.gov/testimony.cfm?id=913&wit_id=475
It is hard to determine the impact of H-1B workers on comparable U.S. workers. The only comprehensive effort to date, conducted in 2000 by the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences, concluded that the magnitude of any effect the H-1B program has on wages is difficult to estimate with confidence. The report noted that the effect, if any, may not be to depress wages and employment opportunities for U.S. workers but rather to keep wages from rising as rapidly as they would if the program did not exist. Another study in 2001 similarly concluded that if the H-1B program has any effect on comparable U.S. workers, the effect must be subtle because it does not appear immediately in the data.
-Age Pattern of the Science and Engineering Labor Force
http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/seind04/c3/c3s3.htm#c3s3l1a Absent changes in degree production, retirement patterns, or immigration, the number of S&E-trained workers in the labor force will continue to grow for some time, but the growth rate may slow significantly as a dramatically greater proportion of the S&E labor force reaches traditional retirement age. As the growth rate slows, the average age of the S&E labor force will increase.
And later "Taken together, these factors suggest a slower-growing and older S&E labor force. Both trends would be accentuated if either new degree production were to drop or immigration to slow, both concerns raised by a recent report of the Committee on Education and Human Resources Task Force on National Workforce "
I am also trying to gather information about the points given below
- Number of H1-Bs becoming US citizens (when given a chance)
_________
- A $$ amount of value addition of H1-Bs to the US economy
_________
- Number of children that are US citizens from H1-B families.
_________
Any help in pointing to any articles etc that you may have come across is good. Please keep in mind that these studies should have stats in them and should be recent material

Yes, some of them do.
And depending on your luck/contacts/influence you might even extract an EB-1A out of them and get your GC in 6-9 months.
All you need is a team of 2-3 people reporting to you and one project in europe/australia and you'll qualify for EB 1 as per Infy's rules.

All,
I sent out my application to USCIS last week and while talking to a friend I realized that I had not filled the Item
"If your native alphabet is in other than Roman letters, write your name in your native alphabet below:"
I neither filled it with my native alphabet nor filled it with a "N/A" Even my lawyer has not detected this.
Is this going to be an issue? What will the USCIS do about it? Since I still have time does it make sense to send a revised form? Is some one out there who have done this?
Please let me know
Thanks
-Sri

How can a illegal obtain a paycheck without using a stolen SSN, so there is no way CIR can pass in its current state which allows for a guest worker program. This would mean that any illegal who has stolen a SSN would not be eligible for Guest Worker program - which would be over 90% of illegals.
They usually do not receive a paycheck they receive cash instead :D .

1) Are there any issues traveling on AP under the following circumstances??
- there's no current H1 stamp, although H1 extension for 3 years has been approved
- AP is expiring within 2-3 days of planned return?
- New AP is filed/pending, Receipt Notice received
- Employer is a Fortune 500
2) I've read previously that they ask you if you've changed employers since filing I-485. Anybody familiar with scenarios where employers have changed??
3) Docs I need to carry, besides... :
- H1 Approval notices?? (All of them since day 1?)
- I-485 Receipt Notice
- I-140 Approval Notice (do i need this?)
- Current AP Approval Notice
