Gandhigiri is a concept in an indian movie based on Gandhi principles. In which hero of the movie wins over anti-hero by sending flowers to him as per Gandhi principles for every wrong doing he does and he makes others also do the same who are effected by the anti-hero wrong doings..
hate to be so ignorant but what does Gandhigiri mean? I assume it's something Indain. Can you tell us non-indians what that it. (Anything to do with Mahatma?)

Hi,
If the Dems win control of the Senate, I expect no major changes for us. The amnesty bills are already passed easily in the Senate as is anyway. That doesn't change anything for us there.
In the House, this will be a close race. Even if Dems barely win in the House, what is less likely, then they may well find themselves struggling again to get major votes for the amnesty bills. Remember that the amnesty bills got rejected in the House by large margin - and - enforcement only bills got approved there widely. Our stand alone SKULL bill - not sure whether that will be considered by Democrats. Democrats will probably address the Dream Act before they take over the SKULL bill. Let them pass Dream Act, and then we, the Employment Base applicants will be in a real dream for a long time.
It won't be easy, folks.
Thanks,
Your Friendly Ombudsman bringing you a dose of daily reality.
Ombudsman, you forgot one important point however.
If the Dems do win the house, the speaker will be a Dem. and she will set the agenda to be discussed and voted upon. Also the ranking members on the various comittees will also be Dems. Therefore they will make the decisions such as, when and how to discuss these measures in committee, when and with whom to hold congressional hearings(expert testimony), when to go to conference and which representatives to to go to conference, and so on, these things influence the legislative process as much as votes do.
The bottomline is House Republicans had a fair shot at this and decided against any changes, I can't see how them returning is going to solve a thing. Immigration is one of the few issues that the Upper House and the Pres. can agree with a democratic congress on. Issues such as Soc. Security, healthcare etc will certainly end up in gridlock as the republican strategist Ed Rollins points out.

I know you don't want us to use paypal - but I think that might be delaying lot of contributions.
Here is my case - I have a very hectic work schedule -so by the time I go home I forget to write and send a check. If I could do paypal then would be no problem as I can do from any where - work - from phone - anywhere.
Just a thought.. I have been planning to send $50 or so but kept on forgetting. Don't get me wrong but telling the truth here.

When some one decides to apply AC21 by having an offer from another employer, it is not clear if one is required to inform USCIS about it. Some say one should, others say, not required. Has anyone seen any USCIS position on it? If not, perhaps we should make this as a question for next Ombudsman's conference call.
Good suggestion for bringing this to Ombudsman. BUt anyway informing USCIS would be the wise step in a sense you will not invite unforseen problems may be associated with not informing.

My situation is not any better. I am working for a GA based company since 2001 got stuck in the backlog center with Priority Date Oct 2003 (labor apporved in Nov 2006 I-140 applied in May). After calling the company HR for 30-40 times in last one week I was able to talk to HR guy, he said the ceo will allow only those who have approved I-140 to apply for I-485. He also said then once priority date retogressed again I will be able to get 3 years H1B ext. that will be good for me.:mad: I think these desi blood sucking compnies will be obsolete in couple of years. If USCIS make the rules better.
I was thinking of disclosing my employers name but then I will never be able to file I-485
Its a universal truth that Desi companies are blood suckers still we will work with them .....who to blame ???????

Hello <TV station name>:
I am writing to you to give you a heads-up on a news story which is
about to happen on July 10th 2007. If you have been following the
issue of Immigration in the news lately, the United States Citizenship
and Immigration Services (USCIS) along with the Department of
State(DoS) announced an update to the July Visa bulletin essentially
eliminating any chances to apply for "Adjustment of Status" aka. the
last stage of the Green Card/Permanent Residency process. This
bulletin was was originally published during the mid month of June
inviting all legal immigrants to apply for Permanent Residency.
The Visa bulletin is a formal communication method to all Immigration
adjudication officers and personnel in National and International
consular offices of the United States of America, advising the
personnel of the availability of Permanent Resident visas which are
capped at 140,000 a year worldwide. The system has already forced many
delays and approx. 400,000 applications are back-logged.
This update was released on July 2nd, the first business day for the
month of July. Thousands of dollars were spent in legal fees and
medical examination fees by some 200,000 highly skilled legal
immigrants who chose to follow the rules and abide by the laws.
Several lawsuits have been filed against USCIS and DoS asking for
reimbursement of legal and medical expenses by AILF (American
Immigration Law Foundation) and AILA (American Immigrant Lawyers
Association).
The Legal immigrant community backed by ImmigrationVoice.org (a 15,000
strong group representing the Highly Skilled Legal Immigrants
Community) is resorting to a unique way of protesting this decision.
We have decided to take a leaf out of Mahatma Gandhi's book and send a
dozen flowers to the USCIS Director Emilio Gonzalez as a way of
protesting against this debacle brought upon by the high handedness of
the two departments.
Please find attached the Press release from ImmigrationVoice detailing
this protest.
As always, you folks at <TV Station> have always given unbiased coverage to
events, both local and nation wide. I hope you will cover this story
and bring to light this case of cheating by the USCIS and Dept. of
State.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me @ <your-number/contact info>
Best regards,
<Your-name>

You might be right. Check the response senator got from USCIS on Aug 6th. I was later approved on Aug 16th.
-------------------------------
In reviewing the August Visa Bulletin, it does appear that visas will be available after August 1st for these employment-based adjustment cases. In reviewing the electronic records, it does appear that the contractor has placed these cases in a location where they will be pulled and sent to an officer. We are unable to request the files be moved to an Adjudications Officer because our Records Division is running an electronic sweep to pull the files with available visas. Files will be pulled through this sweep and sent to an Officer. We are generally processing about 4000 employment-based cases a month and the cases with available visas are being pulled through these sweeps.
-----------------------
I asked the same question at Infopass (San jose) and with 2nd level Rep (NCSC). Did not get a clear answer. I guess it all depends on Infopass location.

What we are asking is just fairness and transparency in the system.
Though I will benifit if the OP's idea succeeds. I agree with eb3_nepa. We need to do something that will help everyone. Its not fair to seek relief to only some section of the community.

Guys,
I never beleive in polls. The questions are always framed in such a way so that max people go and answer the way the poll wants....example below
Q1 ... Do you as an American support CIR for resolving immigration issues this country faces ?
Q2 ... Do you as an American support CIR so that illegal immigrants be a Citizen of this country ?
Looks at the above two questions, I think for Q1 lot of people would say "Yes" and "No" for the Q2, so I never beleive on the polls , the questions are always framed to get the answer the poll wants.

employer. I know many cases like this, people approach these Bodyshoppers to get H1, or to convert H4 to H1..... many pay even H1 processing fees(which is illegal)..... just pray that after getting H1 they will get some project and the employer will pay....... they won't dare to ask employer.... becoz he can just revoke H1 and just be done with it...... many many cases....
