they are decreasing from 140,000 to 90,0000....
note that even though this bill is just not good enough for relief that fact is that the number of GC available to a backlogged country like india goes up about 150% under the new 190,000...this does not include the 14,000 additional numbers from the MBS.
Why?
only for backlog, so no EB1 (28.6%) and no EB2 except india and china. also country quota increased to 10%
so available numbers eg india increase from 5,600 to 9,000 (+14,000 MBS)
i put up a detailed calculation for this earlier on somewhere
search for it if you are really interested.

HI ,
MY H1 b is expiring on 30 Sep ,2009 .
My current client informed me that they are going to hire me as a fulltime , but it will take 2-3 months for them to hire me .
Should I ask my current employer to file H1 extention right now ?
Or I should wait for H1 trnsfer as a fulltime employee ?
Any suggestions ?
Thanks

I am working as a biomedical research fellow on a J1 visa for the last 3 years in a non-profit research institute but they cannot sponsor my H1B. I am planning to get a J1 waiver and apply for H1B as I plan to work in the private industry. I am not sure whether I can apply for H1B without an employment offer? I would appreciate any suggestions.

I would like to see this kind of report in front page of WSJ and NY times.
I like the below points from the report.
- There is no evidence that during the long periods of time when no foreign
nationals could receive new H-1B petitions the job market improved for U.S. workers or professionals.
- The March 2009 findings from Duke University and University of California, Berkeley researchers send a signal that America cannot take it for granted that outstanding international students, researchers and professionals from around the world will always want to stay and work in the United States.
- The relaxation of green card constraints proposed in the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006 could have increased labor earnings and GDP by approximately $34 billion in the tenth year following enactment and had a net positive effect on the budget of $34 to $47 billion over ten years.
- Relaxation of H-1B caps under the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007 could have increased labor earnings and GDP by $60 billion in the tenth year following enactment and improved the federal budget�s bottom line by $64 to $86 billion over ten years.�
- �Over the past 15 years, immigrants have started 25 percent of U.S. public companies that were venture-backed, a high percentage of the most innovative companies in America . . . The largest U.S. venture-backed public companies started by immigrants include Intel, Solectron, Sanmina-SCI, Sun Microsystems, eBay, Yahoo!, and Google.
- we estimate that all companies founded by immigrants from 1995 to 2005 produced $52 billion in sales and employed 450,000 workers in 2005,�

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
As many regular readers of this blog know, I am impressed by the amazing work of Vivek Wadhwa, research associate at Harvard, and an entrepreneur in residence at Duke. This week his most recently published article, The University Of Competition (http://www.outlookindia.com/full.asp?fodname=20090622&fname=GCol+Vivek+Wadhwa+(F)&sid=1), in Outlook India, points out the obvious--"with its flawed immigration policies, the U.S. has exported part of its economic stimulus and is providing a windfall of premium talent to these countries (India and China)."
Vivek also appeared in a NPR's Marketplace segment on how sophisticated engineering jobs are disappearing from the U.S. and moving to India (http://marketplace.publicradio.org/www_publicradio/tools/media_player/popup.php?name=marketplace/pm/2009/06/17/marketplace_cast2_20090617_64). The report by Janet Babin starts with an unemployed Silicon Valley engineer and ends with Wim Elfrink � Cisco�s Chief Globalization Officer who is based in Bangalore. In that piece, Vivek discusses how the world has changed and how companies now need to be near growth markets.
This pieces and other recent pieces show that plodding ideas about commissions and study groups to recommend visa numbers are relics of a past age. The question is, will Congress act quickly enough on immigration reform to actually make a difference in helping our economy recover. Every immigration lawyer knows these simple truths--lazy people do not walk across the desert. And, its corollary--the Hope that is American attracts those willing to work hard to succeed. Well, the former principle is still true, at least for now. The latter is giving way to hopelessness--backlogged visa numbers ("encased in amber"), and a growing and vibrant economy in China and India. The failure to act quickly is going to cost America in the long run. Let's pray someone in the White House and on Capitol starts this immigration reform discussion moving before it is too late.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/186823568153827945-2392842088350390333?l=ailaleadership.blogspot.com

Hi ,
I was working for company A and got my labor and I-140 approved and then i changed to company B. My priority date is jan 2005. Is there any way that i can continue my green card process with company A. WOuld be of great help if somone can tell me if there is any way to do it.
company A can continue your GC process while you working for company B,Talk to company A about this.I guess company A asks you to join their company , for that you need to apply H1 transfer from B to A.It's not a big problem talk to company A first.Good Luck

This is my understanding PERM has no fees to department of labour. Is that right ?
Can employee may attorney fees for PERM ?
Can employee pay I-140 fees for USCIS ?
Can employee pay I-140 fees to attorney ?
I assume that employee can surely pay for USCIS-485 fees and attorney fees for this. ?

Once a I140 is filed without the I485 one has to wait for I140 approval before being eigible for filing I485
Can you post any supporting documentation for this?
Thanks

Do you mean RFE (request for Evidence) by "Query on H-1 Transfer " ? This happens all the time with any benefit application. You need to explain what that query is? If company C will respond to it by providing the evidence USCIS wants, things will take care of themselves.
Yes can still go ahead and transfer to D only if you are sure the query will be addressed by company C and the approval for H1-B transfer is 100% certain. Normally it may be a good idea to wait for the approval.

It is not illegal. Some companies apply for extensions a bit late and in the mean time, the VISA expires. It is OK. At the most he/she will not be able to drive as the drivers license is linked to the VISA expiry.
Fine then of course.

Hello everyone,
According to my immigration-lawyer, I have received a notice for interview. I filed under EB2 category and only my and my wife's I-485 is pending. I had friends who got their GC without the interview, but i got called of an interview, so I was wondering why i got called for an interview-any specific reasons that some of us get called for an interview?
Another questions is; i read some blogs and almost all the people who were called for an interview seem to get a list of documents from the INS to take along for the interview. My attorney didnot mention anything about the list, so do all interview notices come with the document list or is it normal to not have one?
Please any insight in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I am on F1 visa. I enrolled in one of the university. I don't attend university in person. I do attend classes online from another state. My question is that I am resident of which state ?? Will I be automatically resident of state where exactly my university is ? I know it is mandatory to attend classes in person on F1. Can you please advise ? How is residency considered ?
Thank you very much.

That could be viewed as remuneration for services thus meeting the USCIS definition of employment. At least theorhetically, this would violate your H-1 status.

labor is indeed more than 1 year old. Are you completely sure about this rule since having an approved 140 gives you a 3 year extemsion
Yes, unfortunately you are not eligible for I140 premium processing as you can extend your H1 beyond 6 yrs based on labor > 1yr old.
USCIS opened this premium processing for a VERY narrow group of people: "who can not extend H1 visa beyond 6 yrs by any other means, who are currently on H1 status". However, due to this very narrow inclusion criteria, they have received a very few premium processing requests (as most people either have older labor or are in different status by now). And they LOVE money, so they will soon come up with broader premium processing, (probably in october or so when new fiscal year starts when they usually go in "hibernation")
Hope it helps.
