From Today's Lou Dobb's....
Tonight, congressional leaders are unable to break a deadlock and begin work on an immigration reform compromise. A provision in the Constitution could kill the Senate immigration bill and chances for immigration reform this year.
LOUISE SCHIAVONE, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): It could be a real procedural holdup or just a good excuse. But for now, immigration legislation is stalled on what could be the road to nowhere.
Here's the problem...
SEN. JEFF SESSIONS (R), ALABAMA: A notice has been served on the Senate that a blue slip will be filed, which, in effect, says they will not consider the bill in the House because it has a revenue enhancement in it, a tax provision in it.
SCHIAVONE: A blue slip is like a legislative traffic ticket. A blue slip would be slapped on the Senate bill because, besides a guest worker program, a wall at the border, punishment for employers who hire illegals, and so on, the measure includes tax provisions, including one requiring illegal aliens to pay back taxes and another making U.S. workers overseas pay more taxes than they do now.
What's wrong with that? The Constitution says tax laws start in the House, not in the Senate. The same way, for example, that it's the Senate, not the House that confirms judges and cabinet secretaries.
REP. TOM TANCREDO (R), COLORADO: If they shot the Senate bill over here, it would be shot down in about a heartbeat simply because, for one thing, no revenue-raising bill can originate in the Senate. There's a constitutional problem.
So it can be stopped. I mean, they can try it. Have them send it. That's fine with me, because that's the end of it.
SCHIAVONE: Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist suggests tacking the immigration bill on to a benign House tax bill that's been on the Senate docket so that it has a House bill designation. But Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid wants assurances that no other legislation will hitch a ride on that train. Senator Frist's office says he has offered those assurances.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
SCHIAVONE: And Kitty, it gets even more complicated than that. Congressman Tancredo says that lawmakers on both sides of the Capitol went home for Memorial Day and heard lots of protests about that Senate immigration bill and the eventual amnesty it offers, leaving some on Capitol Hill to wonder if in this election year it might just be better to let the clock run out on this session of Congress and start fresh next year -- Kitty.
PHILLIPS: Interesting stuff. Thanks very much. America's opinions on illegal immigration and border security should affect the legislation Congress adopts and the one that President Bush signs. In his news conference this morning, however, President Bush explained the crucial role of public opinion in a democracy.
Senator Jeff Sessions says the Senate ignored the will of the people in passing an amnesty bill for illegal aliens that would cost taxpayers tens of billions each year. A CBO report Sessions commissions says that the bill will also do nothing to stop illegal aliens entering this country. I asked Senator Sessions what the purpose of the Senate immigration bill is, if not to stop the flow of illegal aliens?
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
SEN. JEFF SESSIONS (R), ALABAMA: That was the purpose, but the CBO numbers are based on the Senate bill. And they say, in a fact, there's no change in illegal immigration for 10 years. It would be 700,000 to 900,000 a year. If anything, that's certainly no less and maybe more than the current rate. So it really belies the argument that this bill is going to make any progress on enforcement. It certainly does not appear to.
PILGRIM: What does that say about the value of this bill, sir?
SESSIONS: Well I think it again is another indication that it is unacceptable, that it's terribly flawed, should never become law and will not do what it promises. It promises to enforce the border. And that's proven to be false. I think I've already said that, but the CBO confirmed it. Workplace enforcement is not there. And the future flow plans to allow millions coming in in the future at a much higher rate are just unprincipled and not valuable, not good for the United States. So we definitely need to review this legislation.
PILGRIM: House Speaker Dennis Hastert has said that he wants to take a long look at this bill and potentially hold hearings. Do you think hearings are appropriate? They're certainly not normal.
SESSIONS: No, they're not normal. But you know, the House has none of this so-called comprehensive approach to immigration. Theirs was focused primarily on enforcement. And so if they're going to consider the comprehensive bill at all, they absolutely should study it. We never had enough hearings in the Senate. This bill just basically came up and moved through with very few hearings directly related to the gray issues on immigration.
We just didn't discuss the real important issues in any significant way. For example, we've never considered whether or not we ought to adopt what Canada does, and that is to have a point system. Why haven't we even discussed that? It seems to me it makes an awful lot of sense.
PILGRIM: All right, you know, could this immigration reform bill be hammered out behind closed doors with the congressional leadership? Do you see it going that way?
SESSIONS: Well, that's a very dangerous thing. The American people's confidence in the government on a question of immigration is very low. They're very cynical. And if anyone thinks they can hammer out a bill and then ram it through without the American people being alerted, I think they're in for big trouble and just further erode public confidence in what we're doing.
PILGRIM: The Senate -- procedurally the Senate bill has to be attached to a House bill to avoid a constitutional issue. Would you support a unanimous consent to send to it the House?
SESSIONS: You know, I haven't made a decision about that. My personal view is we need to discuss this bill more. No one senator can block a bill from being considered, but can provide an opportunity for more debate. So we'll be looking at that.
PILGRIM: And timetable-wise, if this doesn't get to the House and Senate by August 1st, do you think it will make it at all in this session?
SESSIONS: You know, it may not. Then again, something could happen. But from what I'm hearing from the House, that they're so concerned about the viability of the comprehensive language in the Senate bill, not that they're so against the comprehensive bill, but just that they are uneasy and unaccepting of what we've done, then I think it's got a long way to go to become law, frankly.

I think it might be CT issue. There is an ongoing immigration fraud investigation against state employees so now they are over doing enforcement.

Friends, can someone help answer a few questions for considering filed I-485 and adding spouse at the later. I am planning to get married in the January or february time frame in India. I have read at several places that one can add spouse anytime BEFORE 485 APPROVAL. I work on H1B, I am from India and my priority date is Oct 06 with approved EAD and I 485 pending. I have some specific questions in case my priority date becomes current. My question is -
1. Can I travel and enter on my H1 even if my AP is approved/pending?
2. Is it safer to travel on AP even if I have a valid/invalid H1 stamped on my passport?
3. Can my wife enter on H4 and then we add her name to 485 when she is in US?
Thanks for any/all additional help you can provide with my scenario. I can be flexible if someone has any suggestions that can help my case.
Of course I will be taking my lawyer's advice and use your suggestions to enchance my knowledge and present some scenarios to the lawyer.
Thanks for all your help!!

I have been getting only 1 year extension after my first 3 years of H1. My I-140 has been approved in My 2nd year of my H1 visa. So it entirely depends on the USCIS discretion.

Does she have EAD? If not on H1, she needs to be in EAD. (or other status like F1 etc). Otherwise she is out of status.
incorrect. Her pending 485 gives her status. She does not need to be on any particular status. And EAD does not give status anyway, its just permission to work while your adjustment of status is pending.
In that case, H1 will be denied because an H1 application while out of status will lead to denial.
incorrect. H1 will be approved if properly filed. The 'extension/change of status' part of h1 may not be allowed if you are out of status (ie. the approval wont have an I-94) and at that point you need to leave teh country and re-enter to active the H1.
To OP: I had asked my lawyer this same question a while back, and he was of the opinion that its likely the H1 extension will come through without an I-94 in this case (ie. USCIS might insist we leave the country and return to activate teh H1). He had not handled such a case so far so was not 100% certain about the I-94 part. The transfer itself is not an issue (you dont need to be in any particular status or even within the country to get the H1 extension filed).

Hardly - performance is one of the big advantages of Silverlight. It runs a similar version of the .NET CLR in it! What are the examples that you've seen that run slowly?
So Silverlight 2 runs way better than 1.0 on some of the sites you showed us. I take it back.
Plus I mean there a good chance Silverlight will have DX/OpenGL support before Flash gets any where close to full 3d support.
Can Silverlight load .x models yet?

IMMIGRATION VOICE ACTION ALERT: 7/11/2007.
Dear Members:
Immigration Voice is organizing its first peaceful protest rally in San Jose, CA on July 14th in order to protest the broken system of legal high-skills immigration. This protest march is being organized to oppose the enormous visas backlogs in the employment based immigration system. This protest march is also intended to oppose the recent decision of USCIS to block the adjustment of status petitions in July resulting from an unprecedented out-of-order reversal on the part of DOS and USCIS.
Please join this rally in huge numbers to create more awareness in the Media, Congress and the Administration. We are already getting attention of Congress and the Administration due to recently published articles on the flower campaign in New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/11/us/11visa.html) and Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/10/AR2007071002055.html) on July 11th. If you cannot join but if you know someone who lives in San Jose area and who doesn’t know about this effort, please ask him or her to join this rally. More numbers will get us more media coverage and more attention to this issue.

The USCIS PDF for I-693 (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-693.pdf) says "OMB No. 1615-0033; Expires 06/30/07" at the top of the form. At the bottom it says "Form I-693 (Rev. 09/16/05) Y". Will we be able to submit this form if we get the medical exam done now and file it with the I-485 on July 1 or later?
I found another version of the PDF which says "OMB No. 1615-0064; Expires 05/31/08" at the top and "Form I-693 (Rev. 09/16/05) N" at the bottom. I've only found this at these sites:
http://immigrationadvice.net/I-693.pdf
http://www.lexisnexis.com/practiceareas/immigration/pdfs/web895.pdf
But I'm not sure which one should be used because of the upcoming expiry date on the one from uscis.gov, versus the one with the later expiry date on these other sites. Does this expiry date matter?
I'm going to my medical exam in 1 1/2 hours -- if anyone can post a response before then, that'd be much appreciated!
I don't know if the doctor will use my copy or provide a copy. Is it a problem if the doctor provides and uses the older form?
I think in absense of a newer form by USCIS, the expiry date 6/30/07 means the form can be filled in by 6/30. I think the doctor will use his own form and will not accept if you provide one. This is just my logical thinking and not a rule.

If I say that yes you can travel without a visa, will you believe me.........
Ask a travel agent man...
Yesterday they allowed without valid visa..... today they need a valid US visa.
We are not travel agents... You can get a valid answer from them.

Hi,
I am from the Philadelphia region. I should be able to apply for my I-140 in a week or so. Does anyone know approximately how long it would take me if I applied the NON-Premium way?
Thanks
Nebrasaka takes anywhere between 3 to 8 months. Texas takes anywhere from 12 days (in my case) to 2 months.
Texas is much faster.

Texas is much faster.

its back to the same question: IS MBA worth the time and money!
facing stagnation ..in our eternal wait for GC...what are the risks of not pursuing an MBA in you want to further or change ur career later on!
its not all bad to pursue PT..provided u make the right concentration choice!
There are success and failues in Pt programs! My friend got his MBA (PT) from UIC ..nowhere in any list..;-)...and landed a job as a director of IT for a consulting firm...his benefits and all tops 180K..now..its up to you to figure out how big a paycheck makes you a happy man.;-)
There will always be the traditionalists who believe Old school MBA is the best!..but..how many desis have the luxury of stopping work and going FT.
both arguments are valid....but to succeed in PT..go by ur gut ..
duniya ..hope par chalithi hai.;)
my 2 cents!

Based on the pdf "Operation of the Numerical Control Process" on the Visa Bulletin home page.
"The cut-off dates are the 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd of a month, since VO groups demand
for numbers under these dates. (Priority dates of the first through seventh of a month are grouped under the 1st, the eighth through the fourteenth under the 8th, etc.)"
comments appreciated.......

I am July 2 filer and have EAD card for myself and mywife. We are planning to go to INDIA for 30 days. I have H1B extended until 2010 but H1B STAMP is expired in passport. I have following questions:
1. Should I apply for AP for both of us?
2. If we have AP documents for both of us, Do we need to have NEW H1B STAMP in passport?
3. When you aboard in flight from INDIA, do they question for expired H1B VISA stamp in the passport? What document we need to show them at that time?
Your help is greatly appericated.
Thank you.

I travelled through FRA last year to be precise. Never had a H1-B1 stamping on my passport. Used my AP. Sent email to german consulate prior to travel to check for transit visa. They responded that there is no need to have transit visa unless you are going out of the airport to visit(Schengen visa). So you should be good to go on AP.

If she plans to continue with her current employer after her travel, there is no harm in using AP. Once she comes back on AP, she automatically resumes her H1B status on the next H1B extension filing within US.
If she is OK with going through the hassles of visa stamping, that is fine too.
Please refer to the following murthy bulletin for details.
