Just an idea !
Please stress about how you cannot buy a house because your immigrant status is always in limbo and you have plans to buy house as soon as you receive greencard.
Look at the market today. It tanked another 250 points. Give greencards, alleviate mortgage crisis to an extent.

Here is the text that is in the I-9 Form:
"Anti-Discrimination Notice. It is illegal to discriminate against any individual (other than an alien not authorized to work in the U.S.) in hiring, discharging, or recruiting or referring for a fee because of that individual's national origin or citizenship status. It is illegal to discriminate against work eligible individuals. Employers CANNOT specify which document(s) they will accept from an employee. The refusal to hire an individual because the documents presented have a future expiration date may also constitute illegal discrimination."

That is naive... AC21 is not an administrative decision of USCIS... It is a law... AC21 = American Competitiveness in the 21st Century act!! It was passed by congress and the only body that can revoke it is congress.
USCIS cannot revoke AC21.. only congress can. Please dont be paranoid. The most USCIS can do is refuse to change their current stance on same/similar job.
Gurus, correct me if I am wrong.
i am not a guru... but CIS can easily make things more difficult for you than congress intended.
namechecks are not authorized by congress (for GC anyway), by CIS uses them to screw people anyway.
"same or similar" in AC21 is a good enough clause. Do not needle them to come up with a rigid rule, because whatever they come up with will be worse than what you have now.
At least now they have some leeway to help you, and you have _some_ chance to move in career.
jeez...

I don't think it is unfair as I think
That if eb2 numbers are not filled then they automatically get allocated to eb3 so why to have portability to eb2.

Congratulations!!
So, the IO just called? Did you raise any SR/file complaint with ombudsman/enquire through congressman?
our applications were supposedly approved today. IO called home around 7:30AM.
Dependent case is being worked on though..he said we should get approval notice in 3 days.
I am just waiting for approval notice now..hmm..its a different wait :D:D

Foreclosure and bankruptcy will not affect your job search... especially in this market.
If you encounter a situation in future and HR questions you about bad credit or bankruptcy be honest and explain what happened and companies will understand. This is a tough economy and even millionaires are foreclosing because its the smart thing to do in a capitalist economy.
Similarly applying for bankruptcy is not bad, it is there for a reason. But remember, understand the bankruptcy laws; for example if you owe 100,000 and apply for bankruptcy the chances are the court will make you pay for it. If you owe 1mill then the court knows that you cannot pay and will dissolve it. Same applies for foreclosure, banks will help you if you cannot afford to make the payment. If you can and they think you can, you are screwed. sorry!

Where did I say that american's gave better advice than desis. I was just trying to compare mentality of two diff community for a same situation.
I m not asking for personal opinion as to how u feel when someone foreclose.I m asking for an advice as to what r the consequences
When you ask for advice, you need humility. Not call others stupid, when it looks like you made the same mistake. You bought a home which you were in no safe position to afford. There are people who didn't buy because they saw what was coming. Can these guys call you stupid because you didn't see what was coming? I don't know why my tax dollar should be used to bail out guys like you who are/were irresponsible, while I patiently rent out this mess caused by you guys? :mad::mad:

Little_Willy,
Yes, it is that simple. If you just walk away from your home, bank can only touch your home and credit history. They can not go after your automobile\gold\savings\other property....anything. You are not missing anything. That is why we are seeing so many people around us just walking away from their homes. Thank God I rent but if my property's value go down 200 k in 2 years, heck I would walk away with a smile on my face. No strings attached.
Walking away would have been difficuly had you put 20% down, i.e. involving your hard earned money in the deal. In that case you would have waited to see the market and hoped that it would revive. If put 0% down and bank has given you 100% loan, then it is the bank who has taken all the risk. You have practially no risk in that deal. Just like cloth....return it to the bank. Hey....you don't have to even clean it up...like you do in the case of apartment move. ;-)
0% down, ARM, interest only.....when all these goodies were floating around, it was hard to resist.
Correct me if I am wrong. If a person has a good paying job and if he decides to foreclose, isn't he responsible for the loss incurred by the bank. It is a different case if you have no income, but just because you lost money because of a wrong decision, how could you walk away free with just a dent in your credit history. Maybe I am missing something here.
BTW, I am not judging OP in any way, just curious with how foreclosures work as they make headlines everyday now.

Not sure i agree with that statement. The way the spillover trickle is reaching EB2 there is no way EB2 will become current for atleast 5 years so impact on EB3 within a year or two is a incorrect statement
If the momentum continues, EB2 will be current in about 2 - 3 years. There are roughly 15 - 18K EB2 I applicants per year and around 5 K for EB 2 C. the number will defnitely be less during later part of 2008 to mid 2010 due to Economic downturn.
The current queue for EB I + EB C till Aug 2007 ~ 36 K
People here are talking about 38 K SOFAD whcih means by August this year it will catch up August 2007, by late next year it should reach Aug 2009 and by late 2013 it will be current.
Again, all these based on assumption that the current momentum continues and the assumed 38 K SOFAD are available every year.

Yes ndialani,i waited for 6 month which i did because i don't know I140 premium started from June 2009(For most the cases).They started in Feb 2009 but its applicable to some limited cases).
May be i would have moved it to premium if i knew in June.Some of the options which i would have tried during that 6 months period was InfoPass,Senator,Ombudsman etc but wasn't very serious about 140 as i thought it may take some years for gc(since the dates very moving very slowly at that time).
Thanks,

Normally how long the medicals are valid, I have applied my 485 in the past with medicals that are 7 month old
Normally valid for 1 year but according to my CS these days USCIS is very strict about tb test so they they recommond it to be in within 6 month time frame.

Hi All
I think we should not loose hope and feel USICS will wake up and resolve all this mess
1) 4-6 years back there was big mess of labour blachole: people started rasing their voices, companies started writing letters and finally they started BackProcessign centers, streamlined process and finally labours were approved
2) I 140 was taking hell of a time: people started writing letters and ther esult was Premium processing( Even though they have s toppe dit now but still USCIS had listed to us and gave a path to resolve our issues)
So taking all these into perpective, I think all EB3 folks should not loose their heart, but we should make an effort to appraise USCIS,Congress,Senators of the pain of EB3 folks who are waiting for a long time to get their american dream realized.
So dont get dishearted or loose ur focus by others comments, no one dreamed in 2003 that labours will be approved,but still they got approved.So today we maybe facing lot of negative vibes and comments that it snot going to happen and no law tells the EB3 should get their visa's before EB2.So my fellow EB3ians PLEASE write as many letters as possible, as many calls as possible to make it happen.
It all starts with a dream, a zeal to achieve it.So I think it is possible if we make a collective effort .
