After years of lobbying and advocacy events those efforts are finally getting paid off however small it may be. At least recognition by administration for h4 spouses ordeals is a big achievement. Infighting and finger pointing will lead us nowhere.I whole heartedly appreciate the group that met the WH officials and their efforts that lead us at least to begin this journey. I am sure you will find dime a dozen who are armchair critics and just try to argue with everything with those who actually do.I wonder how many people of us sincerely believe that posting on boards and creating petition will help to pass a rule. Initially it may help to draw attention but with out follow up efforts and lobbying it's not going to go anywhere.There is no magic wand that's going to vanish our problems overnight.My request to IV if is lay out the proposals for administrative fixes and the budget required for follow up efforts that experts think can be achievable.Seek a poll on it and raise the funds and be transparent about it.May be IV did all this before and don't have interest to start fresh but that's how you lead. I am not from IT and relatively a newcomer on board and don't have much experience how this works. I made one small time donation during HR 3012 lobby and disappointed with how it didn't fruitify. People posting on the board should realize that your success is groups success and that's how everybody benefits. Please stop bickering about EB1/2/3 quotas and unite for the common good of every one.

I just want to bring this to IV's notice on how we (may not be all EB3-I) feel.
On the other note please don't blame others without know the fact. I have participated 2010 DC advocacy event for 3 days. Additionally I have donated few hundred bucks over last few years. It might be very small compared to IV donors but still I think I did more than 90 percent of IV members with ZERO activity. Thanks Quote:

Look, try to bring back sanity to the discussion. Try not to live in an echo chamber where the only voice you hear is your own. To make echo chamber to work, you have to block every information that could reach you from outside. And only you can prevent outside information from reaching you. Its your choice. And if you have chosen the block information or tools accessible to you, and if you have chosen to listen to yourself, then obviously you will reach the conclusion that "IV not paying attention about wastage of EB3 visas". Which is fine if that is what makes you happy. But if you choose to get engaged and actively participate rather than venting on online forums, you will find out ways to get engaged to participate constructively. Its not rocket science. |

I attended lobbying days event in Washington for 3 days 2 months back. There was a lot of snow in Washington. But IV explained why it is risky to post everything online which can sound odd for Facebook generation that is posting online picture when taking a bath or eating neighbor's cat. IV explained that the effort of HR3012 did not fail. The Senate immigration bill in 2013 or House immigration bill, both bills have provision to remove country limits in EB. In March I attended 14 meetings in the House of Representatives. In all the meetings everyone acknowledge awareness for removing country limits and agreed. Ashwin explained at the training that this is all a process and not an event. HR3012 was an event but effort to remove country limits. But this process has been underway since 2006. HR3012 was one (major) step to create awareness before the actual fix can happen. I was also disappointed when the bill did not pass in the Senate in 2012. But it made sense when Ashwin explained how the process works. |

Undoubtedly this legislation needs some heavy lifting . While 4/10 are doing the legwork and volunteering their time rest of us are watching from sidelines. Together we can be successful but how can we unite everybody for the common cause and move forward. All of us have the Innate curiosity to know what's going on and keep coming to boards for updates.How about this group start a paid membership drive that whoever on a monthly basis contributes are going to get monthly newsletter with updates?I can't think of people subscribing to paid membership just to spit venom or ruin the cause?May be I am being naïeve I am not sure.

Too bad.. one thing is certain…. All these breed class warfare among the so called educated, skilled workforce. EB1 does not care about EB2, EB2 does not care about EB3 and so on….
Fortunately, the undocumented have no such segregation. No wonder they are out in full force highlighting their issues. I'm sure the undocumented will prevail in their fight to freedom, while the educated and skilled can just wait, wait and wait.................... |

I was wondering how easily H4 EAD proposal came into limelight dodging every other proposals like EB2/EB3 visas, STEM etc. Is this initiative from IV or some other organizations? The reason I am asking, why can not we move the other proposals in the same way as H4 EAD Proposal? For some reason I feel like If we fought hard on something, it might will not be considered. But the ones which we did fight for or fought little, gets approved very easily. Interesting..
