You cannot keep GC out of equation when GC/non-GC decides your ability to get unemployment benefits, choice of jobs and many more aspects of your life.
If you leave the country, you lose the equity on the house. I don't know when you bought
the house. In the post credit bubble period, the lender will make sure you have enough equity that they are secure and you have skin in the game.
Bought my home in early 2008 on 100% financing (yeah, they had these crazy schemes back then!) before the economy tanked. So I havent put down any money. Even the closing costs were paid by the seller. For me its not an investment, but a place to live. So I am not worried about the equity. The home isnt a McMansion and the mortgage payment is manageable. When tax savings at year end are considered, it almost puts me on par with renting.
On the other hand, I dont put GC on a pedestal. I bought my home even before I had started GC process. To me it is not a life changing event like the day I was born or my wedding day or the birth day of my kid. Its something good to have for obvious benefits, but I am not holding my breath until I get it. Once again, I reiter that factoring GC into your decisions is a personal choice, and I dont do it. I am not banking on unemployment benefits or any other govt dole. Like I said, if anything were to go wrong and I had to leave the country for good, my lender will be the one taking the hit. This might not be the case in your situation and I can understand why GC would be so important then.

Trust me my friend, I have seen it happen all the time, from large Telecom firm to Govt., its always there, most of the consultants just doesn't come to know about it, but the cut for the managers is there in some form, almost always. Why do each manager has a specific vendor through whom they want to hire most of the time? What else is the reason for the client to pay the consulting company $180/hr but they won't give 'valueablehurdle' anything more than $50-60/hr?
On a different note, now that NSG approved the waiver, most desi uncles, some of them are also owners of desi consulting companies will claim that they are the father of Nuclear deal. These bastards (sorry for my french) always oppose any GC fix and they tell their favorite congressman/senator (each has atleast one favorite politician for whom they do fund raisers) that gc backlog is not an important issue for the community. India Abroad, Times of India, rediff and other desi portals/newspapers will write 'Oliver North' style stories about these desi uncles knowing well that companies like GE etc put their weight behind the deal as it will create commerce to commerce over $20 billion/yr. But desi uncles/orgs will not stop claiming to be the father of nuclear deal. The fact is, most of these desi uncles made noise not because they wanted to do something for their country of birth, they are doing it because they think that if the nuclear deal passes, they can play middle man for US companies to sell the technology/material to Indian companies/govt. Most of the so called 'united voice of Indian-Americans on the Hill' organization's goal is to make big bucks by playing 'middle man' for companies wanting to sell technology to India. And as always, just as 'valuablehurdle''s client (paying $180/hr) Indian govt. will pay double the cost. These desi companies have squeezed blood of people waiting for gc, but now they think its time to move on to play big game with the big boys. These desi uncles/orgs are going nuclear.... time for Rediff and India Abroad to play Oliver North. Sometimes the line between capitalism and cycle of corruption is extremely blur. The problem is, these desi uncles/orgs claim to be representatives of entire Indian-American community, sometimes the entire immigrant community. They don't know more than 100 people, but they claim to be the leaders of all 2.5 million indian americans. Sorry for my french, but these bastards are the owners of desi consulting firms who have done a lot of harm to many communities.
I think IV should compete openly with USINPAC which realistically doesnt have any grassroots support.

looks like its more than 15 months since you gave ur finger prints..so I think they sent you to update their records..
anyway good luck..any good luck to you can also be a good luck to me ..we both have same PD :D:D
I recommend that they approach "future-tellers" and astrologers forum than raising that question here. Given what everyone is doing "speculating" and "hoping" the people on those forums (astro) are better at that :-)
Give this "what will be in the coming/next bulletin" question The rest.

Question gurus... I have a xerox copy of my approved I-140. Will this be enough to port the priority date? or do you need the original copy to be submitted along with the new I-140 application when you request portability of older priority date?? please clarify.

As I see, most of you are missing the point. Instead of trying to understand, you showing the maturity of mind. The whole purpose of EB immigration is to meet the Demand(Job opportunities) vs the supply(immediately available candidates).
When there are a lot of opportunities exists for EB3 level(skilled profession) and less opportunities exists for EB1(Ph.D/Executive Director), USCIS should give more no. of Visas to EB3, then EB1.
A country cannot be built with only the kings, and not even a home can be built with only Ph.Ds(Nobody do the dishes).

Yes, WE do need to make sure to contact our congressmen and make sure they understand one thing (make those letters, faxes small and to the point):
Point is: "Visa recapture bill DOES NOT ADD any new visa numbers. This bill simply allows the use of LOST visa numbers due to administrative delays over past few years." THAT'S IT! no more arguments or appeals.
Visa recapture bill is not a bill to ask for MORE. It is a bill to use the existing numbers which went to waste despite of high demand due to administrative delays...
I stopped by at my congressman's office and conveyed this message twice (one letter and another verbal communcation as a follow up on that letter). (I am lucky!! his office is two blocks from my home as he lives in same town).

(11/28/2007). The USCIS officer was not that friendly, but she promised to send an e-mail to main office. The very next day (11/29/2007)we had an update on website that EAD cards were ordered and we got it today. The date on the cards was 11/29/2007. It worked for us. It is really depends on the officer you speak with.

CIR? There is no indication that CIR will happen this year.
True. But that is true for every other bill. Just the fact that a bill is introduced means nothing. More details about CIR were discussed in our last conference call. We will have another conference call next month and you can join to hear CIR developments.
Why wait for it?
We need to wait for it. Please join the donor forum and donor conference calls to know more details.
It brings up too much anti-immigrant sentiments amongst citizens affected by the recession.
Why do you think this family bill will not bring anti-immigrant sentiments?
We can just go ahead and support this bill right?
Sending emails, phone calls and faxes will not help at this point. You may want to join your state chapter and meet the lawmaker offices in person. Involve your chapter leader and members in the process as well.We will guide you. But do not go to support this bill. Go to them asking for xxxxx that we will tell you once you have secured the appointment with the office. We will provide you with all the material and guidance. If we need to facilitate our provisions, this is what we need to do rather than sending any email or calls. They will have 0% effect at this time. Infact anyone sending emails from a junk email ID without revealing their name, phone number and home address in the email is wasting their energy and hurting themselves and others in this community. Lawmakers want to hear from their constituents and you need to be a real person. An office should be able to contact you and know you have a legitimate concern in their constituency. You should urge others not to undertake such misguided attempts of spamming lawmaker offices and follow a proper process instead. Ask people on other websites who are sending random emails to come to IV and join our advocacy effort. We will help them reach out to their lawmaker offices so that they can go and meet these offices to convey their pain and suffering themselves.
Is there an official stand on this bill from IV core? Already stated above

I read in murthy.com that asking money for H1 b is illigal. below is the link for more info

Fraud vs. Technical Violations
For purposes of the BFCA, fraud is defined as a willful misrepresentation, falsification, or omission of a material fact. Technical violations, essentially, are errors, omissions, and failures to comply that are not within the fraud definition.
�MurthyDotCom
Examples of items that were categorized as technical violations include instances of employers requiring H1B workers to pay filing fees that are designated by regulation to be the obligation of the employer, as well as the deduction of other H1B-related fees from employees' wages, and, thereby, reducing the wages of these H1B workers to levels below the LCA wage requirement. Other technical violations included general failure by employers to pay beneficiaries at least the prevailing wage for the occupations within their particular geographic locations as listed on the LCAs, employment of H1B workers in geographic locations not covered by valid LCAs, and the benching of H1B employees. The fact that these were characterized as technical violations does not mean that, if found to be intentional, they could not fall under the definition of fraud.

6 months after GC is safer. The "6 months" is usually USCIS rough assumption for calculating "intent". Doest mean that you are absoulutely safe after 6 months. It doesnt mean that you are in danger before 6 months also.
You are supposed to have the "intent" to continue working for your GC employer AFTER getting your GC. The 6 months is to show that you HAD the intent, and after 6 months your intent changed.

Pappu,
We believe in this organization's hard work. Our presence here proves it. But I also think blaming members might not achieve anything except hostility.
If we do not get enough funds then we need to advertise IV. We need to have better web pages to have a look of a professional organization as compared to having a look of , lawyers website etc. For this we need ideas. We need better communication from IV administrators on their webpages. Right now if someone new comes to this website, it is does not look more than getting their immigration related questions answered. Plus their should be easy tabs to print IV advertisement for community boards, sending emails to friends to participate, or any other ideas. Also we need some form of direction of what to do and how to do it. Right now I don't even see easy tabs for access information from congressman, senators etc. Just throwing out some ideas. I am sure some other people have better ideas than I do.
Why dont you start by updating your profile, contributing money and volunteering your time to IV. You joined a couple days ago and have started lecturing IV admin as if you are an expert.
You came to the site and started dismissing IV flower campaign and praised AILA.
Why don't you volunteer for the site and its content and send an email to IV for it? And dont tell me you do not have time. If you do not have the time, then contribute money to IV because that is what I did too.
