Warning: Personal opinion.
Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill passed by senate(S.2611) may not see the light this year - an election year.
The House of Representatives is controlled by the Republican party. It is their utmost priority to keep it that way after November elections.
Immigration is a hot issue. Having seen how nasty television commercials for candidates can turn into in hotly contested places, the war may be won or lost on immigration issue.
The President does not enjoy popularity to influence people to vote for a Republican candiate. No matter how many PR stunts he may do, it's going to have little effect, if any.

I'm going to Canada on vacation for 2 days. I've read that if yr I-94 is valid and even if yr visa is expired you can return to US (thru automcatic revalidation)
till
1. you have not applied for US visa in Canada
2. you dont belong to a country declared as sponsoring terrorism.
My question is if you surrender yr I-94 to a Canadian inspector while crossing in to Canada, what do you show US immigration people while coming back? Do they stamp something etc? Has anyone gone thru this or knows abt this?
Thanks

I am in the same situation. I did not wait for 4-6 weeks for 221(g) and entered US using AP. The consulate called my home in India and was asking why I did not follow up my application? Should I withdraw my application by e-mail? Will there be any negative impact on my status in US?

First, there is nothing called "sponsoring a visitor visa". You cannot sponsor . Every visitor need to qualify on his/her own.
If you mean sending an invite letter and copy of your H1 to show they are visiting you , it is fine.
If you mean sending I-134 -- Affidavit of Support -- the Affidavit has no legal value. If the visitors do not have enough liquid cash, they can say that you will fund the trip (and you can send your bank statements to prove). Anybody else (like your siblings in home country) can also fund the trip. If they have cash, best is to show that as source of their trip.

It is only missed if it is possible. We were in contact with key senate offices.
The bill was just too controversial and the appetite to include immigration provisions was just not there. We are stll making last minute efforts. the provisions are in the current CIR version and should be in all versions introduced as far as we know.

Does .net framework give access to complete functionality of Windows OS?
Is .net used by Microsoft to build any applications. If so please give some examples. Is win32 api and C++ or is .net with C# the preferred way. When is win32 api used explicitly?
great information its very helpful to me

Overtime is paid only if you are a non-exempt employee - usually means you get paid hourly. If you are an exempt employee, then you are not eligible for overtime. Not sure if this is different in different states, but that is how it works in Ohio.
Same is true here in CA (Only non-exempt employees get overtime).
Again, check with your state agency regards to overtime pay..... or consult a employment attorney...

If you get fired you will loose your H1 status but can definitely change your status to H4. However, you will be subjected to the cap if you want to come back on H1 unless you find a job with a non-profit org.

Record $14 trillion-plus debt weighs on Congress - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110115/ap_on_re_us/us_debt_wars)
Taught of debating if it is worth to live here more ??
Basically I came here to earn some money and to have some good life ( cleaning my bathroom myself -- lol )
The way things are going here in US with Jobs / Economy overall thinking if it is worth to live here and worth to get a US Passport or to keep renewing GC.
I know it all depends on each indivisual perspective and views.. but taught of looking other views on this.
Thanks and Regards -- Green_Always :-)

Change your Job. If the job description and responsibilities are same then you have a sure shot at AC21. Choosing a good job is really worth the little effort of filing AC21.

Hello everyone,
I have an H1-B from my current employer and my green card is in process. I have received my EAD.
I would like to work parttime at a different place while working fulltime with my current employer. There are soooo... many forums which talk about not using EAD with H1-B since this will cause the H1-B void.
Is there a USCIS source where we can get a clarification of using EAD with H1B? Looking forward to your replies.
Thanks!

I'm wondering if criminal charges that never lead to a conviction (3 charges in total) can cause a green card holder to get deported? Also, when a person applies to renew a green card after it expired will another FBI fingerprint check be done?
Thanks for the help.
If you were never convicted, you should not have any problems. Because remember, you are innocent until proven guilty ( which means conviction) and being charged is not an offense by itself. You might face some problems at POE because your finger prints might show up due to arrest record, but if you have court documents showing you were acquited or police documents showing that your charges were dropped, you should be OK.

H1 validity.
But thank God,my woes r over now,as I got my approval today.
But the applying for SSN woes r going to begin soon.

I have a pending I-140 with a Feb2004 PD which may or may not be approved and I have a Feb2005 PD with approved I-140. Which is a better stragety. Risk with the old PD and play safe and wait long for a GC?
Hi guys, I have a unique situation, thanks to july visa bulletin. I have a EB3 labor and I 140 approved with the PD as May 2004. Recently I applied EB2 PERM in order to port the PD from EB3 to EB2. My EB2 perm is approved now. Now, I am in dilemma to choose between EB2 and EB3. I can apply EB2 I 140 and I 485 concurrently (by assuming that they will port the PD) or I can apply I485 (for previously approved EB3). Please suggest as to what route I should take.
