I decided to join you as a monthly Donor today.
It looks like your organization is the only one doing anything concrete to help legal immigrants. I had trouble finding support on other immigration sites.
This is request to other members and forum browsers, guests to also support their effort.
The recession has been tough, but if I had to choose, my immigration is more important to me than cable TV.

My wife's 485 status changed online as "Card production Ordered".
My GC was approved last year august and waiting for her approval over a year.
I see a pattern of approval for people who got recent soft LUDs. Nola was another person who got SOFT LUD.
Congrats.
Please keep updating the IV tracker this month if you got approval. Please also encourage others to do the same.
We are going to see the trend of the approvals and if next month the dates go back or approvals look irregular, we will contact USCIS.

Congratulations .. and keep supporting IV. I would ask each lucky one who get GC in sep 2009 should DONATE atleast one time 100 USD gift to IV.
I couldn't agree with you more. Just made a one time donation of $100 via paypal.
Receipt ID: 1988-7134-7465-5315
Of course I am going to continue to be a monthly donor.
Thanks to everyone for your best wishes. I am so looking forward to my trip to India in December this year, my boss approved my vacation today and then sent me home to celebrate!!:D
Hoping to see many more approvals this week and all month long.:)

This is a link to other races in the DC area: I have never run a race; so I plan on running one of the 5K races in May or June and maybe try one of the 10K races in August. I am sure there are other races abound in summer. If there are others who are apprehensive about running the 10miler (like me).........you might want to try doing something similar.

this whole thread is a nonsense, it belevies that people are not aware of the tricks placed by desi consulting companies. how come people do not take jobs
in foutune 500 companies if they are so good at their skills, why do people go to
desi consulting companies for training, after MS degree every body is asking for
the list of consulting companies( why do they do that ).
there are people who ask is it valid to be without payslips on H1B ( how much
more ignorent can u be ) , bottom line they could not find the project and they want to blame the desi company for not paying them ( trash ).
wake up people.
thanks

It would be nicer if the age-out problem would have been mentioned as one of the painful consequences of this immigration kaos.

With this attitude and arrogance, I rarely think there would be motivation for anyone to do anything for IV.
I started discussion by asking , how can IV convince me that my donation is going to help, I got shot down by ARROGANT ******** and got all reds as if I care. I was planning on a charity/donation drive of my own to get some money for IV.
Know lot of consultants, who really dont know what to do with their miles with every one a executive airline status.
Already have 10+ people pledging Poker tournament from my poker group with their miles for Airlines and hotels. We are talking of a Million AA miles.
Indian restaurants(s) having a Immigration week where a dollar of each bill be given to IV.
I was even thinking of standing at Indian stores in Dallas to ask people to consider for IV cause, as long as I believed and hence was asking.
I was just getting started with so many ideas for my free time.
Good luck in what ever you do guys. Note that GC is not everything and note that I am still on extended H1, family on H1 and EAD never helped me. so assumption that EAD helped my life is baseless. All these hypocrites are long gone from IV once they get GC. All we get is response that Mr X or Y , even after getting GC, is working fro cause. How can I believe.
Any organization can be successful if there are questions answered and not shot down. Just working at DC doesnt make some one a strong contributor for IV.Work at grass root level is so imp. What I have noticed is any one who went to DC has become headstrong, egoist and arrogant as if they own IV.
Please read my initial post before commenting. I always said, I am for IV cause. just convince me so that I can convince some one
Gisa pita dialogue,...dont ask what IV has done,, ask yourself what you have done... COMMON
Here it is, I can write in BOLD and RED
