Called all of them early morning 10am eastern time
which is 7am pacific for me. No hold anywhere. All calls were
done in ten minutes.
Response from most of them was "I will pass the message".
Some took my phone number, name and current location.
Exceptions were
From office of 'Hilda Solis', staff said that congressman is already
supporting those bills.
Office of "Ciro Rodriguez" said that they respond to issues from
their constituents and encouraged me to call my representative.
Office of "Lucille Roybal-Allard" said "pass and message" and asked
if I have contacted my representative.
IV members who are the constituents of Congressman Rodriguez, please take a few minutes to call him and impress upon him of how important this is for his constituents.

Logiclife, Looks like the statement that USCIS have to accpet the 485 applications all month on July inspite of availability of visa might not be true anymore. See below link
http://www.immigration.com/fromtheagency/usciseb36287.html
I'm really concerned now, as like many I've also shipped my paper work to the attorney, but have NO control on when they are going to file.
Anyway, we have to deal with all this.
That's bad...really really bad. We spend so much time and money on getting documents ready, medical records and all that. In the end, something like this happens and our bad luck continues to grow.

I think the thread should stay open so that members that do not visit this site regularly know the truth.
.
www.immigration-law.com has now retracted his statement this morning. He maybe following our website and giving updates.
When our members posted this yesterday, some of our members started accusing IV core of not knowing anything and indirectly saying that they are not doing the job right. Now we have seen that IV core team responded to the thread quickly and gave us the correct answer even before anybody else on the internet could give. That itself shows how much these core people are working hard. It is us that are at fault by not helping them.They are doing all this with the support of mere 200 members that have contributed. I think it is our responsibility to contribute even without their asking us. Let core team do their work and we can all support them from outside.
Great job IV.
IV has not taken the credit for Kerry's inclusion.... then who did it ? Did Kerry on his own added this amendment ? I don't beleive it.... is their someone other than IV also working on our cause :confused: :confused:

EB3 Other workers has the most wait time compared to EB3 general. So by your logic people who are waiters, chef, janitors and farm workers should get the greecards before you. :D
And what will happen if CIR passed. All 13 million will be in a category that will be most backlogged. Should they get all greencards before you?
Well, thats spillover... Its not that USCIS is going to allocate more visas for EB3 or more Visas. So spillover, yes!

You can day trade. I have been trading for a while in various different capacities. Just make sure you have a good tax guy, they usually charge more for day traders due to all the trade reconciliation needed while doing taxes. Since I got the EAD it has become much easier though. You open a regular trading account and trade. Here is the key to day trading- Risk management, Risk management & Risk management. I cannot emphasize this enough. Most people get in with out much knowledge and burn out fast because of bad risk management. Have an exit strategy before putting on the trade and exit AT that point. Don’t get emotional.
Key thing is; I quote "Plan your trade and trade your plan".
Retail brokerage accounts like Scottrade, Ameritrade are OK for regular trading but if you want to day trade they are not good enough. Day Trading is all about execution and you will need a faster broker than these guys.
Some good ones are Interactive brokers, Think or swim (I think TD Ameritrade bought them out) and e-signal with one of their partner brokers.
For the guys in and around NY/NJ there are a lot of day trading firms like Hold Bros (Jersey City), Lynx capital and Cymera capital in NYC which offer good execution and good commissions.
Commissions have to be factored in as you will be trading a lot and all those fees add up. Execution has to be very fast <2 secs or you will loose money in slippage. Another factor with faster execution is that you might be able to front run news which gives you an advantage.
But before you jump in with both feet, do a lot of research. Paper trade a lot and hone your skills. What you know in equities is just tip of the ice berg. There are tremendous amounts of infrastructure and brains dedicated to squeezing out "alpha" and to beat them is not easy. The real money is in trading options, but this is for the really sophisticated trader. In options you can loose your entire capital.
Any one starting out must read a lot. I would suggest:
1. Come into my Trading Room- By Elder
2. The Equity Trader Course- By Schwartz
3. Trading and Exchanges: Market Microstructure for Practitioners- By Harris
For those of you a little sophisticated:
1. Volatility Trading- By Sinclair or By Johannes
2. The Options course- By Fontanills
3. Bible of Option trading- By Guy
4. Quantitative Trading- By Chan
If anyone is interested to go beyond this (one step away from insanity), let me know and I can suggest some more reading.
The key thing to realize is pattern trading is a self fulfilling prophecy. The more you trade the more you realize it.
I was under impression that being on H1b u cannot do intra day trading.. you can do only routine trading ( dont know excat term ) in which u buy stock and keep it for some time and sell it .. generally 3-4 days..

I live in Los Angeles and sent my paper-based application to Nebraska. it reached on May 01 but no reciept or check cashed yet.
I know After reading this forum that I should have mailed to Phoenix lockbox instead on Nebraska service center.
Anyone in the same boat?. Do i need to file again or wait for USCIS to forward it to Phoenix lockbox.

It was merely an expression. I am sure you guys get the point.
Hangin there. 2004 will be cleared soon. If not this month, next month.
While the wait has been frustrating, the general wisdom hasn't been lost! Certainly GC isn't everything.
Anyways, thanks for the encouraging note.

Having said that, this will be the right time to purse this agenda...Many of the folks suggested, counting date for citizenship from I-485 receipt date or I-140 receipt date. If you google 'Backdate GC', we can see that many other folks in murthy, rajiv khanna forums are also talking about this. So, we might have enough members to pursue this further. Many of us have been here close to 10 years (Me from 2000 on F1, OPT, H1B etc). Its only fair to have some of those years counted towards citizenship.
Pappu, IV leadership,
Please let us know how to proceed further on this...
Yes, I like this one too and posted about this a few times. We can take this agenda forward. I think we'll have a lot of supporters...
This might already be in IV's agenda. Pappu? Can you shed some light in this matter?

I actually agree with logiclife. Your worth = how you perform. I have a Ph.D. and I am a post-doc in a lab, but my salary depends on how I perform. If someone with 6 months of NIIT can do what the job needs great. But, and this is a big but, whether you like it or not, US immigration policy is going to favor those who got degrees from the US . So Ron Hiras will have their way, and something will be worked out for those with US degrees. IEEE has tons of "well-respected" studies which prove that graduate studies improve the person's worth for an organization. Brb2 is also perfectly correct in that they fit in better in the US work culture, and hence have what the US industry needs. It is also true that if the need arises, those with US degrees can find employment with non-consulting firms; most non-US educated people however need these desi consultants.
It is false. US employers need good skilled workers. The only way they used to get people in earlier days was through students who come and graduate. But after the body shopping infracture was built, they started getting people through body shops.
Body shops are like feeder agents that feed foreign skilled workers in the system.
As per super specialization in US degrees, and Phds etc...It is true that some jobs need these skills and these kind of jobs are always available to people with those skills.
But most IT jobs at an entry level or a junior or a mid level programmer does not require that you have a US degree or a Masters or a Phd, and these are the kind of jobs that get filled by H1bs without US Master's.
In fact if a job requires a Phd and if they did not find a qualified US worker for that job, the job will be open for a PhD as long as the degree from a foreign univ gets evaluated and candidate is good.
In the days where there was no body shopping infrastructure was not there, businesses were forced to take MS grads from US univs just because they were accessible and tghere was no concept of outsourcing.
But these days, every company is having a outsourcing or offshoring model so these jobs that can be outsourced will always be outsourced. If the outsourcable jobs are to be kept in US, then skills must be insourced.
So, if you think US educated or MS people have more advantage - you are just fooling yourself.
The issue here is the distribution of visas and quota restrictions and not US educated or non US educated.

My EAD has been pending for almost more then 60+ days. I have got my FP done almost a month ago. No LUD's nothing.
When i tried to get some information calling the 800 number, they wont talk and say that the information on the automated system is the latest.
Has anyone been able to talk to any IO and get any information about their case. I am working on EAD and it will be expiring in another 45 days or so, i am just getting worried.
Any help will be appreciated.
