This is the first time I am hearing about this. If there are more such instances/OP can provide his full details, IV can ask USCIS if this is true.

Would you mind sharing the process of getting the PPF from your old employer in India? i.e. what kind of forms do I need to request? What kind of documentation is needed etc?

Note: These details may be true. Last month we had heard such information but not in detail and thus had not posted it. We were hoping to get this news within 6-8 weeks (As per oour note on http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=14749). There are efforts to make name checks current and that is good news for everyone waiting for several years in the namecheck blackhole. It will also help recent applicants who might be getting into this problem.
IV wants to thank all its members who took up this issue with their lawmakers and also contacted Ombudsman's office to solve this issue.

I was wondering if update is only available through state chapter? If so we are in blackhole,,, as many of us are not members of state chapter..
Or if we have more action items to act on apart from calling reps..chc and lamar smith ?
Neways.. i have asked for NC state chapter enrollment ..so hopefully i'll get the updates from then on...:)

Report back
Two people from the CA group met the Constituent Services Manager at the Congresswoman's office. The staffer was very familar with Immigration issues, and the functioning of backlog elimination centers. It was a fascinating meeting at a very personal level with good exchange of views. It is good to remember we meet as individuals with our own histories, struggles and successes.
On IV goals
There was more agreement on some of IV's goals than others. For example it might be easier to "Automatically recapture unused EB Visa number from previous year." That goal may have better chance to win out. So we may need to move this item up. So in terms of priority, starting with what the staffer agreed with, Iv's priorities would something like this.
1. Transparency of DOL-BEC and USCIS functioning.
2. Automatically recapture unused EB Visa Numbers from previous years.
3.Convert all 1 year extensions of H-1B, EAD, and Travel Document (Advance Parole) of applicants in backlog to 3 year extension.
4. Ability to file I-485 even without Visa Number availability
5. Allow applicants with advanced degrees from the US, or who have worked for more than 3 years in the US on H-1B, to automatically apply for adjustment of status without regard to EB annual limit.
6. Eliminate dependents from EB annual limit.
7. Increase EB annual limit.
We shared the Ombudsaman's report and the couple of pages from the President's economic report of 2005. They were both very useful. It was the first time the staffer had seen the Ombudsman's report. The staffer wanted to use these at at a meeting she is attending :) Thank you IV team, especially Berkeley Bee for ferreting out key bits of information.
On speeding up Labor certification
When one of us said congress's intention for LC is 21-60 days, the staffer replied that was before 911. How can we make this happen and speeded up the work in PBEC/DBEC?
The staffer also mentioned that a lot of time is spent on "background check" and mentioned it was suggested it might be better for FBI to do it. But of course the FBI had other things to do and that suggestion didn't fly.
One of us mentioned the clogging due to 245-i. LCs could be speeded up -- if the paper work of those on the 245-1 (Apr.,25,2001) track is different from us, then could those be handled differently/ in another place to speed up our LCs in PBEC and DBEC.
Finally, the staffer will let the congresswoman know our concerns.
thanks

Applied for H1B. We already have the H1B approval notices. We also have EAD/AP. Still we got dragged into this.
The H1B sponsoring company is a large and famous Biopharma company with billions in market cap. AOS is also through the I-140 from that company.
Everything is way above board for us. Still we got stuck!
Can you please let know, where is the passport stuck? What country & which consulate.
Also, was this for new H1 B visa or transfer? If new, I assume, it is not first one, am I right?
Thanx in Advance

From from the article. "On wooing back Indian talent, Murthy said there was no need to increase their salaries by 50 times to ensure this. But their lives could be made easier by providing schools, making sure that power condition and commuting is reasonably all right " Looks like he wants to still have the "less expensive" advantage over non-Indian companies / competition and he just wants more and easy H1B's and does not like the path to permanent residency and eventually citizenship and integrating with the American society - which is what American immigration is for. Just need the $$$. Though there are many good to learn from this company and this man, I do disagree with his views when it comes to immigration to USA.
To summarise: - Mr.Murthy is saying let all scape goats come to Infosys and get H1 or L1, and we may use you in whatever way we want, by showing some never attainable goals. and use it as chop shop material, get your tax money also as profit while you are in USA. give accomodation in one hotel room with 4 or less people or in an apartment 2 familes in 2 bed room apartment with a one rental car together!, Any way He want to still make $$$$ that is purely evident. by hook or Crook!

This is ridiculous - We really need a movement to fix the Indian Consulates. It sucks to be born in a country with 1 billion people. Long lines and struggle for everything :)
I sent in my passport renewal on Aug 1st, no update as of now. Sent them e-mails no response. Shame on you CGNY.

A Google search on Yates memo returned this link http://www.shusterman.com/pdf/ac21-51205.pdf.
I was particularly interested in wage difference issue, and above memo (Section I, Question 5) is vague in this regard. It states something like "Substantial discrepancy between the previous and the new wage may be taken into consideration as a factor in determining if the new employment is same or similar". It is not clearly defined what is "substantial discrepancy". But if you take a look at Murthy's website at http://www.murthy.com/news/n_yatmay.html, it conveys that wage difference is usually not an issue.

A PhD does not automatically qualify you for EB1. There are a lot of other requirements. Unless you are in a research or teaching job, it's hard for PhD's to qualify for EB1. Besides, there's the small matter of getting an H-1B or O-1.
If she has a PHD in CSE she should look for a job get H1 and file Green Card in EB1 all off this can be done in 6 months! What's holding you back???? :)
