The House voted Sunday night on the Senate bill for health care reform, passing it 219 to 212. President Obama won a historic victory in the struggle for health care reform Sunday as the House of Representatives passed a sweeping bill overhauling the American medical system. What does this mean for Immigration? Big hope for the future, but a lot of work remains to be done.
Tens of thousands of people turned out on Washington's National Mall on Sunday to support the Obama administration in its next big battle, a renewed effort to overhaul U.S. immigration laws.
Speaking by video to the crowd, President Obama said he would do "everything in my power" to get a bipartisan deal within the year.
"You know as well as I do that this won't be easy, and it won't happen overnight," Obama said. "But if we work together across ethnic, state and party lines, we can build a future worthy of our history as a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws."
Though overshadowed by the historic debate on health care taking place in the nearby halls of Congress, Sunday's rally set the stage for a revival of efforts to reshape U.S. immigration law. The issue has been largely sidelined since a similar push by the Bush administration failed in 2007. We do hope that something will change very soon.

If a College fresh guy gets Rs 6,00,000 / yr at bangalore what will be the salary of a 10yr experienced developer 5 years down the line when the talents will move back ?
In fact I�m sure 10yr experienced can immediately mandate a salary of Rs 30,00,000 /yr at Bgl �. You will save almost the same that you are saving here.
PLease keep all media info in media thread.. Thanks.

Anyone knows the background of this recapture? This is the first time I know congress had a law for it in 2000
Solution
The immediate solution is full accountability of all pending applicants for employment based immigrant visas both at USCIS and DOS. Without accurate data, it is difficult to hold the agencies accountable for their actions or inactions.
Another solution is to �recapture� lost visas. Between 1994 and 2006, USCIS underutilized the visa numbers by approving less than the 140,000 employment based applications each year even though USCIS had more than enough applications pending. Due to the statutory calculation method (explained more fully by USCIS and DOS on their websites), USCIS�s failure to timely process a sufficient number of applications resulted in the loss of approximately 349,000 visa numbers that could not be used in future years since the law prevents usage in future years. In 2000, Congress authorized the use of 130,000 these �lost� visa numbers by what has come to be known as the �visa recapture� method. However, approximately 219,000 numbers have not been �recaptured�. The current worldwide pending cases in all employment based categories is approximately 340,000 applicants. A one‐time recapture of the 219,000 unused visa numbers could go a long way to eliminating this backlog and bringing much needed relief to many applicants who currently face the prospect of becoming residents of the United States after they retire.

I think you can go for stamping. Instead of Paystubs you better wait till you get your W2 and then go. But carry paystubs with you and show them if they ask.

They will take your I-94 at the airport in washington where you will board your flight....
In my experience my previous I-94 was issued to me on AP for one year when I had come in......they did not bother with the I-94 on my H1B.
Anyways since yours is an international flight the agent at the counter will take care of whichever they want.....just present them with both. Mostly they do not bother with the one in I-797 notice.

Besides, depending upon how the "CLASS" is defined- you will not lose your claim if they win the lawsuit.
It does not require you to have filed your case to benefit from the class action , but it depends on how the class has been defined. You can goto Rajiv's website and hear the latest conference call recording which explains his opinion on this.

Hello,
I have been approved for a new H1 visa for 2 years - Consulate Case. My previous visa extension was denied & so applied for a new one with a different company in a different state. I m trying to book an appointment online for the interview in which I have to fill up DS 156 form. There is one question # 24, where it is asking me write the address where I will stay. At present, I have not decided on address as I don't know stamping would be approved or not. So what do I need to write there. I presently stay in a different stay where I own a house.
Lawyers & experienced people pls. help out as soon as possible... I am running out of time...
Thanx In advance
The address should be the one which you are currently staying (on file with USCIS when you filed for GC or notified using AR-11).

Hi
Here is my situation and looking for any previous experience and suggestion from experts.
I have my EAD valid for 2 years PD 05 EB2. I got a job from another company but vendor says I need to be in his payroll. Job wise everything is good. I want to join him on EAD.
Here are my concerns
1. Should file for AC21 or just keep quite till CIS sends a letter ?
2. If I ensure my new job and old job responsibilities are same, am I safe ?
Do you see any problems or advise me for anything.
Thanks

We filed 485 on Jul 2nd. So far no receipt yet.:(
My wife's F1 status is going to expire in Aug. She needs to change her status to H4 now. Will the status change have any negative influence on our 485 application? Do we need to send some amendment regarding the COS?
Btw, which center she needs to send COS this time?:D :D Thanks a lot.

If she entered without inspection she will have to process her green card in her home country unless you can get a waiver. But if she came here legally and her I-94 expired you may be in luck. You will have to file I-130, and I-485 for her. You will also have to submit I-130 for her son who will apply for an immigrant visa in Nicaragua. You may want to talk to an immigration attorney who will be in a better position to direct you on this.
Also this forum is mainly targeted at employment-based immigration and you may not get answers here for a family-based immigration issue.
Good luck.
