I think your expectation of EAD after I140 is flawed. If you read my posts you will know why EAD after 140 has not happened in so many years. To understand the reason, ask yourself how giving EAD after I140 will help large US corporates. It does not really matter if you and me are for or against EAD aupon I140 or EAD for H4. But if Immigrationvoice.org can make a strong case for us, then we can surely expect this miracle to happen. |

I have been to so many forums and must say that the inside information I get on Immigrationvoice can never be found on any other site. But here updates are only given sparingly and you have to look at website and also immigrationvoice facebook page for information. You will mostly find rumors and speculations elsewhere. Nobody has the kind of access that Immigrationvoice has. Being active with high hopes that have no basis or inside information has no meaning for me. My time is limited for gossip. It only helps their business so that more people can come to their for-profit websites.

Firstly thank you for posting it. Secondly I really wonder why nobody on this forum and even on other websites are not discussing this. For them calculating the next bulletin is more important or maybe they are also part of this fraud. They come to this country but hook or crook and cry fowl when they get a better option. So a part of me says I guess its good, if these fraud immigrants are badly treated. But I know its a bad thing to say. Fraud is a disease in H1B, EAD, H4, L1 community and it is high time it is cured. It is more important than getting greencard or H4 ability to work. If the system is clean, there will no backlog and even genuine qualified H4 will get H1B visas. Currently most H4s are just waiting to get work permit so that they can join these fraud consulting firms. And those who are not IT based can fake resume and can even get a tester role. "But a loophole inserted amid heavy industry lobbying allowed companies to sue the departing workers for financial damages. TechServe Alliance, the lobbying organization that represents technology labor brokers, took credit on its website for blocking “the most onerous proposals” in the 1998 bill, saving employers from “burdensome new regulations.” By allowing labor brokers to recoup costs incurred when workers quit, the law enabled them to disguise illegal penalties, critics say." Is an important info. These guys are no big, but could put in resources and also have a PAC. PAC gives them more leg room to lobby. If you look at their events they are active at chapter level too. One would think that if these slimy guys could do this how come our folks are not united and active against this disease before and even after getting green cards. It seems like a just cause to rid the program of bad apples that bring disrepute to the whole system. Why is nobody talking about it? Why is other media houses quiet about it? Why are big companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple not talking about it? I do not know really. |

A very very small percent of these fraud cases mentioned in this article have come to light because most of the time the immigrant settles it out with the fraud company because they themselves have a lot of baggage. If you say these stuff to anyone in the Indian community, they will call you a traitor. Why would Microsoft and Apple care if they can get cheap work force? There is no reason to believe that anything is going to change.

- "look at how blacks dress" - Not acknowledging that African Americans were poor and were not allowed to own property. - "they have no education or look at how they talk" - Not acknowledging that African Americans were not immigrants and not allowed education. - Or "look at how they behave or look or their moral are low" And the list goes on. No matter what you say, you cannot blame African Americans for slavery in America. Likewise, you cannot blame immigrants on H1/L1 for the slavery style system in America, a system protected and promoted by large technology companies (including the companies that many revere) and preserved by US Congress. If immigrants are exploited by their employer and employer is not giving immigration paper work, will immigrants not take desperate measures to change and go to another employer? Is that wrong to take desperate measures to avoid exploitation? The current system is so heavily tilted in favor of the employer that if employer won't give you pay stubs, experience letters, H1 document, copies of green card petition - then it is so difficult to change employer. And 99.99% employers follow the practice that they will not give one or the other document to their immigrant employees. Is it wrong for employees on H1/L1 to take desperate measures including padding resume, just so they can avoid the exploitation of their current employer? Even law allows to kill someone else in self defense, but some purist will make everyone on H1 and L1 believe that what we go through is somehow our fault or as Microsoft CEO Satya might like to call it "karma". This is bullshit. It doesn't matter what is the degree, qualification or caliber of H1/L1 immigrant. What matters in any system is if the employee has the freedom to change employer. Even someone with PhD will be subjected to exploitation in a corrupt system if: 1.) she/he is working in an system that makes it difficult for her/him to change employer and the system is heavily tilted in favor of the employer. 2.) employer wants to exploit their employee, and it could be because of any reason including - just because the law allows the employer to conduct itself in unethical manner. There I take exception to your statement that: Quote:
Employees on H1/L1 are cowards, not frauds. They are suffering from apathy for the lives of their own children, but they are not frauds. They are not civilized enough for wanting to live free in a civilized society because they will not speak up, but not frauds. Unwilling to speak-up for their rights and unaware of the wrongs being caused to their families, but not frauds. And the proof is, people on H1/L1 are unwilling to talk about this honest article. When oppressed or exploited people are unwilling to take on truth head-on, that is weakness, and no system can change with weakness. If you talk 1-1 with people in desi parties, everyone will tell you their story of how they are being exploited by their employer, but not many people are willing to come forward to tell their real story. So I take exception to your statement implying that H1/L1 employees are frauds. But maybe it is worse to be cowards, apathetic and uncivilized to ask for equal rights. |

You can change jobs on H1. I have changed jobs on H1. Many of my friends have done it. If you have the skills, you can get a job anywhere in the US on H1 visa. So, your argument on that point is mute. Did you even read everything I wrote? I never said all H1s/L1s are frauds. A person with required qualifications and skills for a H1 visa doesn't have to take up a job for 40-45k. If you do, you really don't have the skills and are getting into it by a false resume. Whether you agree or not, that is fraud. Trying to justify fraud with personal situations is pathetic. Re-read my first post before downloading your crap again.
