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.

What is your issue? All he said was that Rahman was better in other movies and how do you link that with terrorists? I guess you get cheap laughter by igniting some stupid issues like this. All we need is people like you to be the spokesperson for immigrationvoice.
Let me guess, you are a pakistani terrorist. Now you are jealous that how come an Indian muslim win 2 oscars? How will you give out your hateful message to other pakistanis terrorists that indian muslims are being torchured, so you have to "save" indian muslims. Too bad, no pakistani got an oscar. I know why, because the terror capital of the world is going down the drain pretty fast.

What the Election Means for Business
Nancy Pelosi and other Dems may compromise on immigration, but energy, drug, and defense companies can expect hearings
by Richard S. Dunham
The Republican Revolution that took Capitol Hill by storm 12 years ago—giving business unprecedented access to the corridors of power—suffered a stunning reversal on Nov. 7, amid an unpopular war, congressional scandals, and widespread unease about the state of the economy, despite generally positive economic numbers.
After a tumultuous political year filled with bitter personal attacks, Democrats accomplished what pundits said was all but impossible in January: They took back the House of Representatives, and with surprising ease. As of midnight EST, Democrats had taken 33 seats from the GOP—far more than the 15 seats they needed to take control of the House—with another 16 seats still in play. As of midnight, Republicans still were clinging to control of the Senate. Needing six GOP seats to retake the upper chamber, Democrats were leading in five races, with the Virginia race between Republican George Allen and Democrat Jim Webb too close to call.
Despite President Bush's insistence that the American economy was strong, and getting stronger, 52% of voters said the economy was weak, while just 47% said that the U.S. is in the midst of good economic times, NBC exit polls found. And voters who said the economy was the most important issue to them favored Democrats by 20 percentage points, according to CNN exit polls.
Democrat Promises
Candidates and outside groups spent an estimated $2.8 billion to influence the election, the most costly campaign in American history, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. While the massive spending on attack ads and telephone banks helped stimulate local economies from Knoxville to Fresno, it fed into a public anger at the hyper-partisan business-as-usual in Washington, D.C.
In victory, Democrats promised to change the tone of public discourse. "The message of the public is that it's time for civility and it's time to work toward common goals," said Michael Coleman, the Democratic mayor of Columbus, Ohio. But many voters, recalling George W. Bush's similar pledge in 2000, are likely to wait for concrete action and not just Election Night promises.
Among the Democratic winners were a host of probusiness moderates, including Representatives-elect Brad Ellsworth of Indiana, a tough-talking sheriff; Heath Shuler of North Carolina, a businessman and former pro football player; Baron Hill of Indiana, a former moderate congressman who made a successful comeback; and Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona, a business executive with strong corporate support.
Business Benefits
For business, the election offers hope for bipartisan compromise on some top corporate priorities, although there's also anxiety about aggressive Democratic oversight hearings that could target certain Republican-leaning industries.
On the plus side, Democratic control of the House means that it is much more likely that Congress will approve comprehensive immigration reform, including a guest-worker program long sought by business interests.
Democrats also have pledged to rein in the federal deficit and adopt a pay-as-you-go budgeting system, both goals of company reps. And companies are looking forward to Democrats keeping their promise to restore the R&D tax credit, which expired this year amid partisan gridlock on Capitol Hill.
Possible Changes
But some business sectors—particularly energy, defense, pharmaceuticals, and insurance—are bracing for tough hearings by new committee chairmen. And small business seems destined to face the first increase in the federal minimum wage in nine years. Democratic leaders have not yet decided whether to push for an immediate increase from $5.15 to $7.25 per hour or to phase it in over two years.
On the tax front, small business groups now are unlikely to get their top priority: a permanent end to the estate tax. Indeed, a Democratic House Ways & Means Committee seems unlikely to extend any of the Republican tax cuts passed between 2001 and 2003. Instead, Democratic staffers tell BusinessWeek that the party most likely will focus on expanding tax credits for college tuition costs and fixing the Alternative Minimum Tax, which is becoming an ever-increasing burden to upper-middle-class families across the country.
One industry that Democrats plan to target is oil. House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has pledged to roll back the tax incentives given to energy companies in the Bush-Cheney energy package. Democrats want to spend that money instead on alternative energy sources and green technology.
Still, Democrats can only do so much in an era of divided government. President Bush, with his veto power, can stop any legislation he views as too liberal. And Democrats can't afford to alienate the independent voters and suburban moderates who gave them control of the House.

Incorrect.
You have to register the birth with the consulate (to get an Indian birth certificate) within a year using this form (see part II) (http://www.cgisf.org/visa/misc.pdf), following which you should be able to get an Indian passport. The USA will not issue a visa on this passport since it considers the child to be a US citizen. However, US policy in this regard does not matter if the child never travels to the US.
WTF? US will decide which country's citizen is our biological child?

Many here are 'strongly against' those 'horrible' desi or whatever companies after getting an h1b through them. As we know most of the software consultants are here only because those companies could utlize the loopholes in the system. (We all know that this labor certification and such things are nonsense!). It is great to fight for 'legal' things but when you see those who misusd it themselves are 'fighting' for it, makes people feel so funny! We all know that what we all need is GC, whatever be the way, and whatever happens to 'others'. It is legitimate and understandable to fight for 'our cause', otherwise who will fight for us?
[According to me nothing is 'wrong' to be here using any method even being an 'illegal immigant', but fortunately I am here in USA 'legally' and not using 'desi' or such companies]

This is my thought process (also referred by Ron G):
July 2007 brought in approximately 500K 485 cases.
We do not know how many cases were pending as of June 2007.
Fiscal year 2007-2008 USCIS used over 140K EB VISA numbers (I think it was around 155K).
Fiscal year 2008-2009 USCIS will use atleast 140K EB VISA numbers
so, 500K - 300K = 200K.
Assuming USICS approval rate is 85%; 75K of 500K are denied.
200K - 75K = 125K EB cases pending from the July 2007 cases.
Additions: from all current categories - may be 25 K in 2 years?
So, 150 K plus whatever that was pending as of June 2007.
So next fiscal year, 2009 if USCIS uses the quota 140 K, most or all of the 2007 filings will be cleared. If not EB3 I, definitely EB2 I and C, EB3 ROW will be cleared.
Depending on new filings, EB3 I might retrogress but retrogression might come within 3-4 years instead of current 8 years.
I strongly believe, beginning Jan 2010, dates for EB2 (I and C) will move forward heaps and bounds followed by EB3 ROW.

does this mean that i cannot get a 3 yr extension based on approved I-140 pp? My labor is not pending for 365 days and so I am solely depending on I-140 approval for a 3 yr extension. I am filing i-140 and i-485 concurrently before July 5...will this give me an EAD option even if 140 takes longer to get approved?

Please ...let us agree on this ...will get an EAD even if i-140 is pending while 485 is filed correct??
Not quite. You will get an EAD ONLY if you filed form I-765 along with your I-485. Your I-140 has no bearing on your EAD.
Thanks,
Jayant

You are talking about taking an article and putting a perspective on it. Can you be more elaborate? If you are talking about articles being written on us, I believe there are not a lot.
My last post in the matter. By our perspective, what I meant was, if you see an article talking about common topics such American Compititiveness or Illegal immigration you can always send an e-mail to the reporter and talk about plight legal immigrants. In most cases you will see a response from the reporter, whether they publish it or not is generally a matter of who you represent and audicences to the cause and other issues . That's why I said if IV as an organisation sends an e-mail (it could be me or you but representing IV itself) there is a possiblity that you will be taken seriously. But repeating the same issue to the same reporter 100 times will not make it any important it might even have a deleterious effect. I have seen this method working in the past. If you disagree with my approach, let's agree to dissagree on our approaches.
What if the reporter you are writing to has an opinion similar to that of Tancredo on H1B?
If this is the case no matter how many e-mail we send it will not have any impact on him/her. That debate is almost like Conservative vs. Liberal debate and no amount of convincing can convince the other side.
How ever, I do not agree that we will be considered SPAM unless its the same message COPY/PASTE. 1000 emails?? Are you kidding me? I am sure it hasnt gone beyond 10 and will not go beyond 25 in the worst case.
I thought that was what we are doing. 25, 10, 1000 are all numbers, if 1000 is a spam why 25 isn't a spam. I think it is subjective.
Anyway, I will contact a local reporter and see how it goes, but I will not send e-mail to this editor becasue there are already e-mails sent by others conveying the same thing.

I also have a 3 year Bachelor's degree (BSc Physics) + 3 Year masters degree (MCA) from India. I would like to get it evaluated. Could you please let me know which education evaluation agency you used?
Is you bachelor and master degree in the same or related discipline? I read somewhere that the bachelors and master's will have to be in the same or related fields for it to be considered equivalent to US Masters degree.
Yes, my Bachelor and Master's are in same/related discipline. I think you can use any education evaluator but make sure that are aware of Indian Education System. We have responded to the RFE. I will post the outcome for the benefit for all.

(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.
You are lucky , I did same thing on 11/8, no cards, no updates till now.
