Called the offices of Rep. Hinojosa, Rep. Gonzalez, Rep Hilda Solis and Rep. Ciro Rodriguez. Left voice messages with the offices of Rep. Hinojosa and Rep. Gonzalez. The office staff at Rep. Solis and Rep Rodriguez asked if I was from IV and said that they've been receiving a lot of calls. Rep Ciro Rodriguez's office would prefer to give priority to calls from their constituents as opposed to other callers. This is to urge all IV members who are constituents of Rep. Ciro Rodriguez to please call and request support for the bills.
Going to call the remaining offices as well and leave messages, if not directly talk to office staff.
Go IV go..

Waiting is all we have been doing for so many years. I have been living separately from my wife for last 3 years. When I reached out to Pappu on IV, he refused to do anything for me. I am ready to come forward and talk to media but nobody is here to listen.
I am seriously considering some media awakening event these days, it might be suicide or whatever it takes but this DOS stupidity has to stop. Its affecting so many people's life. I agree GC is not a right that we can demand from US government but they can't treat us like this after investing so many productive years for this Economy.
buddy...your quote kinda worries me. I can understand what you have gone through but always remember there are good things to life beyond worrying about this GC mess, following visa bulletins, and subsequent frustration/high bp/heart attack.
I do what I can to educate the people around me about this legal immigration limbo and whatever within my control. I suggest you chill and use your energy positively to benefit yourself.
Spring is here and I am going fishing this weekend, wanna come along?

I recently got my Indian passport renewed at CGI SFO. Everything went smoothly. Here's some info for other people's benefit. My old passport expires in Sep 2008.
I printed out the online application form and applied by mail. Enclosed the following
Total Cost = $60 MO + $16 Fedex + $30 Notary = $106.
The Consulate received my application on June 16th and I received my new passport on July 1st. That's just 10 working days. I was impressed :cool:
I sent my PP to NY city last week. Had to send 4 PP pictures.
I always notarize my docs at the nearest Wachovia Branch FOR FREE :) Upto 5-6 pages in 1 trip. only once so far i had more than 5-6 pages and the lady looked unwilling to notarize (but didn't say).
This time i did not notarize the docs. not sure if that would be a problem.

Problem being that last page of that thread keeps refreshing itself and everytime i scroll down to the bottom of the page it keeps going back to the top. Sounds like some script is running in the background.
I had the page scrolling issue too on IE 6 (at work) . Now, I open IV forumns on firefox and I do not have the problem anymore.

I do not think anyone is accusing IV of taking sides. I do not think they ever campaigned for EB2 and not EB3, The point is completely missed. But the movement happening is for EB2 only and not EB3, so it is only human for EB3 folks to see and feel depressed that nothing is happending for them.
Not few days ago, the administrators have themselves mentioned that there is no hope for EB3 unless a CIR is brought in congress and the only other thing for folks to do sooner is to Port, and which we all know only a few can do, not everyone...
In the light of all this...are we not missing an action plan????
I have contacted my lawmakers, sent letters to them...and its not even a long time since I joined this forum...the point is how do we make new people motivated?
I have failed to see where IV has been showing discrimination or bias towards Eb2 versus Eb3?
Not taking up a specific Eb-3 cause does not tantamount of neglecting Eb-3. Has IV done something in past 'proactively' for only a certain category of Eb? If not, then how can we accuse IV of ditching Eb3, at the same time?

Few Things:
1) Do not panic
2) Understand that the attorney owes loyalty to your company not you
3) Consult an independent attorney and find out your options
4) Have a cool and collected discussion with your employer laying out very clearly your concerns and why you think it is necessary to move fast on this. Many times employers think they can walk over you and you will do good to have a nice long discussion to tell him/her politely that the I485 stage can take upto 3-4 years or more. This is a fact because you may get stuck in name check or background check, you will have to do the medical get your AP and EAD and then you should have a visa number available after you are done with all the above. So tell your employer that just in order to start these processes, it is required for you to file I485 as soon as possible. Hopefully once your employer knows that you are not going to get your GC anytime soon due to the delays involved AFTER filing I485, he/she will budge and help you out. Also try to define a time line for filing the I485. In short have a rational discussion with your employer and don't be afraid to ask questions.
5) Have faith in god and be assertive, do not keep quiet or go to the extreme of trying to bring your employer to his senses by using legal action unless you have tried all of the above and he/she refuses to cooperate.
I am not an attorney, use my advice at your own risk.
Best of luck.

Called my local congressman's office and left a voice message. Called the offices of Bob Menendez and Henry Cuellar. Rep. Menendez's staff noted down my message and said they will pass it on. Rep. Cuellar's staff mentioned that some of the contents of the bills are contradictory to the things that he supports and got into talking about comprehensive reform. I politely listened to him and reiterated my request, mentioning that his support was very important to get moving on immigration reform. Have to call the other members now. Seemed quite daunting initially However I will try to finish calling the other members as well. Do we still call the office of Ciro Rodriguez ? Going by the postings, they seem to be against the bills.
Please call Rep.Ciro Rodriguez as well.

It is also important for us to realize if we let go of this opportunity we could be in for a very very long wait.
When IV was not there, we had no hopes, no one could do anything, now IV and the volunteers have taken the initiative, least we can do is support them.
We all deserve a better life and more respect in this country.
Next few months are most critical for us, please take a step forward and contribute.
It is not a forever contribution, next 6 months are most important. You also have the option to cancel ur subscription when u want.
