- How has greencard changed your life after receiving it?
A cautious sense of freedom. Suddenly a lot more opportunities opened up and more employers started to show interest. My Desi employer is suddenly on the receiving end and I dictate the terms. Yes, Still workiing with them after 6 months, but that was my own decision to stick with them. Leaving them next month for a 50% raise in salary :)
- What did you do on the day you received it?
I got up at 7:00 that morning of Dec 3rd, (starting dec 3rd my date was not current anymore) , still half asleep, checked my email and got the shock of my life --"Welcome notice sent..." checked it multiple times then woke up my wife and almost dragged her to the computer and made her read the emails with half closed eyes... Our town recieved record rainfall that day and all streets got flooded, so no work :) Went to a Thai place for dinner that night with another family who are very close friend of ours.
-How did the long wait upset your life?
The feeling of uncertanity was terrible. Had to deal with the employer on a daily basis. They sat on my paperwork for 6 weeks, made me sign a million agreements and still did not file my case in June even though my date was current. I was devastated on the morning of July 2nd and rest is very well known to everyone here.
-How did immigrationvoice help you during this long wait?
What can I say? IV took me from what I mentioned in my last point to where I am right now - Waiting for my paycheck with 50% more and above that without any doubts about it coming :)
- Would you like to continue your support to immigration voice and help others waiting?
YES - Or I wouldn' be here 6 months after gettting my GC. Sent another contribution of $50 today.(Paypal Transaction ID #23M509897Y2455252)
- Any advice for everyone?
Have faith in yourself and God. and remember whatever happens , happens for the best.. Even We agree that the GC came at the right time for us. My wife got to spend 100% of her time with our daughter until she was ready to go to a pre-school. And we got a very good friend during the DC rally.. Hello EB3Retro ! :)

I'm on HB1 but my visa which was issued based on previous H1B has expired. My current HB1 is going to be extended in a few months. I kept postponing my travel to India because of the hassle involved in re-validating visa. I will have to use time off my vacation to get the visa stamp. I did not travel for almost three years. Now, I must travel in November and have no option but to go through the cumbersome process of visa revalidation. It would be such a blessing if I could get the stamping done here.

We can get a employment verification letter. But now a days you need employment verification letter for many things. Just recently, jan 2009, I carried EVL for visa stamping. Now, my DL is expiring, should I ask them again for EVL. It has become more like HR nightmare for having a non-immigrants in the copany. These taylor made rules are not appropriate. When driving is a basic necassity, I could not comprahend why they need all additional documents. Any ways if this is true I have to ask my HR again to provide me one. Hope they do not get mad at me.
I think an original offer letter along with latest paystubs is a good way of doing things.

while only a handful of members expressed their enthusiasm, the core and rest seem to not care about this proposal.
CORE members, do you have any inputs here? It necessarily doesnot have to be agreeing with us, just that ur silence bothers me!
Considering the current economic situation, i donot expect much progress in addressing country quota elimination/CIR's.
We should atleast try to get our issues addressed in bits and pieces. Overall, anything to address retrogression should be welcomed! rather than 'debate and beat the horse to death.'

They worked enough for this year and they have lot to do. According to my guess they have the following pending work.
1. Issue Receipts (Sep/October)
2. Issue EAD cards for approx 300,000 applicants? (October/November/December)
3. Issues AP for 300,000 (October/November/December)
On top of this they need to celebrate thanksgiving and christmas like every citizen. So don't expect too much from them for this year.
If at all there is some momement in EB numbers, that will happen only between Jan-March(before H1-B madness starts).
Good luck !
I think you missed a new one (in news today)
- Issue new Green Cards for 750,000 (cards without expiration dates have to be replaced)

Since the CP guys are in minority here , if IV has to invest for them (read we all have to pay for them ) let us see how much they can contribute for their own provision. Let us see if each one of them contribute more than 500 dollars to IV and posts the paypal number.
Why should majority allow a provison for some minority who do not even want to first contribute.
Guys let's all take a break on this discussion before it offends more people. IV is a place for everyone. As far as I am concerned we are all equal and all in this together. Please everyone contribute your letters, time, and financial support and give each other some respect. It is impossible and wrong to generalize and doesn't do the IV cause any good. Thank you.

This 6-month wait period after GC is the biggest myth esp among the desi community. I have never heard or seen any problem with citizen ship of anyone who switched job within 6 months of getting GC. If you have GC, you are as good as citizen except a few more rights that come with citizenship so enjoy your independence and work on your career !!

willwin,
What you say sounds very selfish and narrow-minded.
When I made my first contribution to IV, I was stuck in BEC-hole and clearing out BEC was my top priority but not the top priority issue IVs list. I still believed in the big common goal and believed in the IV team.
You say that you don't see any benefit from IV's goals and so you wont contribute. IV's top priority is to bring relief through legislative solutions to retrogression. Can you tell me that eliminating retrogression will not benefit CP filers? If not, then what's the excuse of your bunch to not contribute?
If you still want to stick with the above "Oh it does not directly benefit me, a CP filer, because it does not massage my foot and make me feel good" rhetoric, then hey since I'm interested only in 485, I'd have to say that not a single cent of my contribution should go towards anything other than 485.
If every 485 filer were to get that selfish and said that, it would leave out this small pool of CP filer contributions (if any) which does not cover the costs of even arming up for your proposed cause. Now, where do you want to go from here?
BTW, it sounds like the CP filers are the ones who are frustrated - not the 485 filers.
Is it so? How many threads do you see from CP filers on this forum? Please direct me to those frustrations of CP filers. I couldn't see any. Tinku sent a note requesting IV core to add CP on agenda. Nothing more.
And, calling me selfish, I dont mind accepting it. I dont see anything wrong in being selfish for that's how the world is - including you and me! Don't paint yourself as a 'Mahatma'. You are contributing to IV because you are stuck in the GC queue and you 'believe' that IV would be of some assistance to you. That is being selfish.
If you had decided to continue on H1B and had not applied for GC but after seeing this forum where millions of your fellow countrymen or like-professionals suffering and you couldn't bear their sufferings and hence wrote a check to IV - you aren't selfish. But now you have just paid for a 'dutch' party!!! Nothing more my friend. You have taken a lift from a vehicle that is going to the destination that you wanted to. and you are sharing some expenses! I dont see any generosity in you.
And, before you jump on CP filers and accusing them for not contributing to IV, please jump on remaining 485 filers who are not contirbuting despite that they will be 'directly' benefiited by IV's efforts.
Else, there won't be 1000's of emails from Paskals and Chandus, needhelps saying only 2000 odd people have sent letters where there are over 20000 members. Are the remaining 18000 CP filers? lol.
And, BTW, I dont need a GC if that is off a penny that you spent. Keep it with you. And you know who is selfish.

Quick Chain of events .
India rejected both Boeing and Lockheed Martin's proposal of fighters . I am not debating the reasons or the merits of this decision if this was right or wrong . I am just discussing the potential repercussions this has had so far and might have .
'Exclusion of US firms from IAF jet deal a setback for ties' (http://www.indianexpress.com/news/exclusion-of-us-firms-from-iaf-jet-deal-a-setback.../783401/)
1) The issue is so serious that Tim Roemer , US Ambassador to India submitted his resignation immediately since he was on the hook for making this deal work .This shows the measure of disappointment they had.
2) India was seeking US assurances in security a Permanent Security council seat , which looks far fetched now .
4) Pentagon , Whitehouse and the DoD very upset that deal fell through . This sentiment will certainly percolate to the USCIS and the State department and might embolden Anti Immigration senators whose measures will get more support in the house and senate.
5) Prosecution of companies entangled in cases like Infosys might find more support and favor with the Govt.
Question is how/if there will be a backlash against India / Indian's get back at us at least in the short term .Increased scrutiny and visa denials , PoE Harassment , GC audits etc.
Will the US take a Tit-for-Tat reaction on this issue is what remains to be seen.

I think calling your university presidents and asking them to show their support for these bills would also be a very good idea.
This bill will encourage pursuit of higher education in US by foreign students in a significant way.
Right now for all bills that Zoe proposed there are max 19 co sponser for this last bill. DID you check for STRIVE ACT 2007 which had 78 co-sponsers still could not make it to floor.
We need to call these lawmakers and educated them on these bills.
Chances are less but our investment is not that big. Few minutes in a day to call or write.
