it has not been a whole week yet so have a heart. Did you try to track the passprt from the vfs site
The VFS website says the consulate is still holding the passport. My wife also applied for H1B on the sameday/sametime and she got her passport within 3 days. I doubt i am stuck because of this new PIMS rule. Should i send an e-mail to the consulate to confirm it?

I am trying to get the original question info from him. Probably he will read the thread and answer it.
"EB Applications pending from India" is very vague, and most probably is not what we are looking for.
USCIS has indicated earlier that they don't know chargeability country until application is ready for approval, which may be true although we didn't want to believe this. Most likely until 485 application is approved birth country is not written anywhere other than the paper application. In most 485 application cases (family, EB and others), chargeability country is a just a matter of recording at approval time. At final approval time, when birth country is found to be retrogressed, application goes back to pending (or cold storage), but ready to approve. This also explains why cutoff dates have to rely purely on guess work, and move back and forth.
For proper handling of cases for retrogressed countries, USCIS/DOS really have no workable method in place.

The reason why change is not happening as much as we want is because we face tough opposition. The only way we can overcome this is by being stronger. We can definitely become stronger if all H1Bs, L1s, EADs etc come together on this platform. If each simply come, read posts, post comments and go away... it is tough to get anything done. Holding a rally is a good idea but we have seen how much work and resources are needed in planning and executing it. It can only be successful if several thousands turn up. Advocacy is a slow, long and painful process and requires lot of patience. Each member must take part in the advocacy effort and support ImmigrationVoice. The first step is to believe in IV. Believing in IV means believing in your abilities and the collective power of this community. There are many sharks out there with selfish interests who try to pull you down so that their own interests are served. Be a part of Immigration voice by supporting its monthly subscription if you cannot give your time to IV on daily basis. Join your state chapters and play a leadership role in organizing events to mobilize and increase membership in your states. IV will provide all the support and guidance you would need for lawmaker meetings. . IV is all of us. We all need to work together and make things happen.
Visa bulletins come and go and if we only keep watching and expecting miracles in bulletins, then we would be wasting our time. writing posts, tracking and blaming others will not solve anything. Each reader of this post should join this movement actively if they desire a change.
Papu,
I respect your involvement in IV and your diligence in promoting the community. However, I have been listening to your message over a long period of time.
1. Your suggestions of sending letter to white house---- DONE that
2. Your suggestion of calling different Senators---- Done that
3. Sending media your stories--- Letter sent no result.
The definition of failure is repeated measures over a certain period of time. The only way you can galvanize the Indian community towards IV is by, hosting something big. Otherwise people don't like to get involved in to something which is old news.
IV has become old news now, I and some other members, I am sure feel, something big needs to be done. The problem is IV is lacking a good leadership--- please don't take me wrong, you have been a great help, but moreover in the past. What I am proposing is, a big rally in DC.
I know it is hard to deal with Desi's in general, OUR MENTALITY IS OF A FREE RIDE, but this free ride is heading towards a deep pitch.
And moreover, people just come and offer their view points, I believe this organization should be more than that, involvement in STATE Chapters, and meeting with other state regulators, will not create a loud voice.
I totally disagree with you on that,
if illegals can create a loud voice even after being illegal, then what is stopping us? Organize something, but don't ask to be involved in state chapters, I will not waste my time, running and begging authorities to consider legals, when others are creating a loud vigilance.
Thank you.

AC21 is a law but certain provisions of AC21 have been introduced in separate memos.
Job portability under AC21 is also part of a guidance / memo - so if any AC21 case goes for hearing in an immigration court, any change of employers while 485 is pending is considered illegal. This is not very common though.
Don't assume things and come up with your own theories and scare people. The entire AC21 law is basically dealing with portability at different stages for long delayed applicants.

Pappu,
I do agree that my success (both personal and professional) depends on:
1) Ability to file I-485 so my wife can start working. She has a MS in Computer Science degree which she acquired while on H4, which in an itself is a major accomplishment. But, she can't do much beyond this. Lots of employers stay away from filing H1 these days. So her best bet is get EAD soon so she can start working.
2) Ability to file I-485 gives the benefit of visa-stamp-less travel. We've been postponing traveling to India due to the hassles involved in H1 stamping.
3) Ability to get greencard will give us peace of mind for sure.
I do know IV is working to reduce backlogs, remove per-country quota, admin fixes, and much more. I do not of any other platform that is helping employment based immigrants...which is why I'm participating in the advocacy days and I just contributed $100 towards the cause.
I hope IV slowly but surely gets enough mass of people to become a self-sustaining organization that can make impact to the lives of immigrants. You and other IV volunteers are surely doing a great job.
Thanks.
Dear IV Members,
If you believe that your success depends on your immigration process - whether it's the ability to file I-485 earlier or to get green-card and citizenship sooner or whether it's the ability of your spouse to work - then you have to believe that your success somehow depends on the success of Immigration voice and these 170 volunteers in DC next week.
As you may know, we are just one more week away from hosting Advocacy day in Washington DC where about 170 members of Immigration Voice will conduct nearly 250 meetings with offices of Senators and Congressmen. Such events cost money. If we have enough contributions, we can spend as per our budget of nearly $ 50,000. If not, we will have to cut back on the event spending and reduce the magnitude and size of the event.
If you are not coming to DC next week, please do your part and contribute funds to Immigration Voice. It not only finances the event properly, it instills pride and confidence in the members who will be there in DC that there are thousands of willing supporters behind them who could not be there physically but are 100% with them in their determination and resolve.

I totally agree everbody. ICICI bank all time sucks. I have account with them for 5 yrs. and everytime I do transfer money to India (FYI I do Wire Trasnfer On Monday morning US CST only should be credited in 1 business day, expected that the money will be credited by Tuesday IST ICICI Business time). What happens eveytime they will credit after 5 business days and provided with lowest Exchange rate.
hmm, As an Iranian citizen, I cannot do this (transfer money to Iran) anymore. When I used to live in Canada, and before all this Nuke fiasco, I could do this, and the way I got away with losing minimum amount of money was that I asked my bank to transfer, say, 2k in US$ to Iranian bank to be held until my dad went to collect it. He got $2000, with no subtraction, rate conversion or anything. He could sell it to the money exchange shops at the rate of the day. You should try doing that (Send US funds, instead of doing the send & exchange through the bank which has a vested interest in this...)

I had the same question. Can anyone please explain inspite of the above problem, how are the prices for apartments in Hyderabad are so high ?
The only thing I can think of is that everybody is buying for themselves not as an investment.
Look at the previous post. Its a myth that NRIs are buying up all these high end properties.
Indian real estate market is fueled by the black money india. They are using NRIs as a facade. Investing in realestate legitimizes that money. Now they don't care how much rent they are getting. It makes no business sense at all. You and me cannot comepete with them.

I am sorry, not a computer guy, but can mass mailing for funding alerts from IV be possible to "loyal customers only"? I am not sure I am giving the right idea/ thought. But what I am thinking is lets say this Administrative cost re-imbursment works, can we send to selected 1000- 2000 non-core member like anzerraja or khodalmd (for example) and ask them to send money? Like how these sticky works...just a solid click and send money sticky. Or I dont know ask everyone...see how many people come in and divide the money...it can be 100 or more.

Please read page 2 of Yates memo (Refer link). The Initial evidence "Annual report", "Tax return", and "Audited financial statement" map to "Employment of the beneficiary", "Net income" and "Net current assets" respectively.

How can an Annual report prove "Employment of beneficiary" and he/she is been or currently is paid the proffered wage??
