At IV, we do not have unlimited time and resources. We have only so much time and our focus is on policy issues. If you believe in seeking 100% efficiency of USCIS, rather than spending/wasting time talking about the same thing every day, why don't you go to Washington and talk to someone? Every time we post anything, which we think is 100 times more important, some folks keep repeating the same thing over and over again. What is the point of all this? I don't believe in this because your data is not convincing. So repeating the same thing over and over again will not change that. But you are free to do what you believe in. This thread has 100 times more relevant information about the subject at hand which we believe could potentially change hundreds and thousands of lives. What's the point of this back and forth on every thread all over the internet as if you have a smoking gun? And the more you keep repeating the same information, the more it sounds like a senseless broken record. Please understand that repeating this information will not distract us from what we are working on. You are free to purse what you believe in, and we will work on what we believe in. Nothing wrong with that. And this will be my last response on this subject. Hope I've clarified enough. Now you can go to Washington and do what you feel is best for you. |

I completely agree with "Companies want more workers with less rights". Isn't the same applicable to law firms many of which survive by filing H1/H4 extensions? Why would they want to let go hundreds of thousands of potential customers? And USCIS is also a self funded organization. I think they also would not want to lose revenues from H1/H4 extensions from a large population. So maintaining status quo is beneficial for many players on table and they will/can try their best to keep it that way while showing otherwise!!

Everything you said is probably correct. However, power lives with the people who are willing to stand-up for themselves. Its a longer journey, but it always works if people undergoing a circumstance are willing to change it. Please do not wait for companies or lawyers or someone else to fix the system. Its not their fault if they are looking for their economic interest. Infact it should be expected and anyone expecting otherwise is foolish. Companies and lawyers are not evil, they are looking for their economic interest. But most EB immigrants are foolish, they DO NOT want to know what is cooking for them and how it will affect them even if they get green cards. The best EB applicants want to do is go to a lawyer website to cut-paste what she/he has to say and get back to LUD tracking, somehow expect someone else (companies or lawyer) to fix the system for them. This is insane. Companies and lawyers are not evil, its the fault of EB applicants who love telling stories about underdog changing the system, but are unwilling to follow that path with little bit of effort. There is one and only one way to fix any system. It has to come from people affected by the circumstances. And when people feel that it's about time, that is the time for change. Until then, lets get back to LUD tracking discussion. |

Modi would want to help Indian companies to get more outsourcing. That requires more workers with less rights, not workers with equal rights. If everyone get green card, most people would want to not work for Indian outsourcing companies. Outsourcing requires revolving door where the workers at client site cannot leave. The best way to ensure this is to get trolleys grip on the neck of immigrant workers. The only way to make any change is to stand up for yourself and not look for someone else to carry your water. That and only that can change the system, as soon as sufficient number of people are ready. |

Undocumented has got nothing to loose, everything is a bonus for them. So they can afford to fight unafraid. Just like Afridi batting. Most members of EB community is here in the country obeying the immigration laws and more or less try to be on the right side of the law. We might circumvent the law, bend it and occasionally venture out of it, but unlike the undocumented we are not willful violators. In the heart most of the EB guys have republican values (again my humble opinion). So I have a difference of opinion with IV in aligning our cause along with undocumented people. However I understand the compulsions of IV in going out as an united front for the cause. As a visa holder, I respect this country and their laws. So if the law says something there is no point cribbing about it. The sincere efforts for HR 3012 is really a great insight to this great countries Democratic principles. Unlike India, where MP's and MLA's are whipped to vote for any bill and party's diktat, here we have members with voice, even if it is different. Chuck Grassley blocking the bill and Charles Schumer adding poison pill to HR 3012 was a great education. IV's effort towards getting the administrative fixes for EB visas under the current framework of laws., show they are really sincere for the cause. |

Undocumented are doing all this. I do not know what you understand by standing up for oneself that H1B immigrants are so scared of doing? I think they are just rich spoilt kids. |

Undocumented people are not my role models. I see them as willful violators, don't wish to stand up with them. Yes, I fear painted under the same color if I am associated with them. That's my choice and you can have a difference of opinion on that. US law gives me the protection of what I can do legally as a work visa holder. However you have to be aware that seemingly trivial issues from other countries (DUI, shop lifting) have a serious ramifications for your green card process. So if you are in a rally and there are some unruly elements in there, I am no way going to jeopardize my GC process with that. I am provided with whatever I 'need' in this country. Backlog elimination is what I 'want'. I am not going to stand up for myself with 'on your face' attitude to the citizens of the country which I aspire to be one in future for a change in the law. |

Look at everyone application. Do you think no US citizen is in truth available? How many of you went out of status at one time or other? who came to study told a lie to immigration officer. Who paid to get green card. Who paid for H1B? Who paid to port? Was your labor process all handled by employer truthfully. You must have done something illegal so you are scared. |
