Thanks hpandey and apume. Your suggestions are very helpful. I will definitely take FMLA and take the leave for 3 months. Once the baby is born, I will try to get into new job ASAP.
I don't want anyone to be discriminated like me in the future. I know how painful it is as I am facing it now. I am hardly getting sleep and worried about my baby becoz of all the stress.

Good luck finding one that covers you till the end AND is low on premium! The cheapest premiums are that of term insurance, and it is intended for such situations where you have taken measures to invest in other places such as real estate, equities, bonds, cash etc, AND you are not counting on earning any return on the premiums you have paid.
This insurance is plain and simple. You pay low for covering you for a certain period of time - 10, 20, 30 years.
Btw, if one is 35 years old and buys a 30 year term insurance, you are covered until the age of 65. What is your point?
Term Ins is the best choice.
What you need to cover is risk agains your life and it covers it.
Term = Covers risk
Whole Life = Covers risk + Savings
My father have worked for 40 + years in LIC back in India, driving braches and their Developement officers to get new policies and business. As per him, Term is the best as what you need to have is to cover the risk against your life and it does. About savings - so called cash value is all creatures of agents and ins. companies to run their INS businesses and within that business a BANK or Investment company.
I don't have one here in US so far. Planning to get one in next few weeks.

Hello Guys,
I need your advice here. Six month ago i joined one of the many blood suckers -Desi cosulting company in new jersey. As you all know, they ask me to sign their contract in which its mention that if i leave their company before 1 year then i need to pay them 15k. Thy also charge me 3k for my H1-B which i am still paying everymonth from my paycheck and we have 70/30. In just six months i am so much fed up with them. These people are so rude...always show their arrogance over phone. I have no libarity to find job by myself. They always looking for higher pay rate sp that their big money tummy get filled up.and i also feel that they didnt told me the right pay rate for the project i am working on right now.
I really want to leave them, Even before 12 months. Is there any importance of that contract letter i signed with them?. Can they Sue me? What are my options? Please suggest me.....i am in stress.
Thnx

It is not over till its over. Anything can happen, we have a lot of things going for us. The present congress wants to show that it is not a 'do nothing' congress. Our items can be a part of any appropriations or other bills. AILA is pushing big time for H1-B1 and EB Relief, so are other vested business interests. This is the last chance they get to get an increase in H1-B1 for this year(They probably are not so much interested in EB-relief), But we can piggyback on most bills dealing with H1-B1 increase, our provisions will be in there.

H1b humane-hear my story..it cannot be as inhuman as it can be..(i have written the story in one of the forums before also..)
My PD-Oct 2001..Eb3..My wife RIR-almost making it thru I140when all hell broke loose in our lives...my wife was pregnant and because of stupid gynaecologist..she ended up in hospital with complicated premature preganancy..guess what..as if it was not bad enough..her company got acquired just when she was admitted in hospital...imagine wondering about health insurance when she was kept to bed rest with no mobility allowed..we filed for insurance by mistake..which said that 20% in patient.....we were so shaken that even human resource did not advise us..guess what..baby was born..and it was surmised that baby will have long stay in hosiptal...2-3 months(eventually it was 4 months!)..somwhere around the first month..I realized that her insurance..will rip me off..I called right at the end of the first month..and tried several times to put my wife and baby on my insurance so that i don't end up paying 20%..it was lot of efforts until I found some desi in Blue cross insurance who put the whole family from the first initial month..when normally people get the policy for the following month at that time.
one down --and then another came..my wife was called to her office from hospital saying that..since there was lot of work in her office..she could come for some days..guess what..she went back..thinking..she could finish work and then take extended leave....guess what..she was laid off..and with baby in hospital..and lay off..plus a rush to change her status to H4 visa..imagine the workload.....finally got her status changed..to h4 visa..with GC and labor in trash...
I was so disgusted..that I started writing to Governor Shwarzenegger' office..who put me with Senator Diane Fienstein..and of course labor secretory Chao..after all the correspondings..all I got was my D number listed from Dallas..their sympathies...ALL I WROTE to them..Hey I want to change jobs because in those days I was commuting between LA to San Diego..where my baby was hospitalized...I wanted to be with my baby..and not work..but it was not possible..if I did..then I could get out of status...I even wrote to Department of Homeland security...and got no reply...they don't care..I ahve to be illegal to get sympathies..I guess!
Situation was bad..finally baby was out of hospital and I weathered all with help of Almighty...and now I am so disgusted with system..that I am moving to vancouver...
But I have another pleasant surprise..my boss wants me to work from vancouver and visit office once in a month...I don't know...whether it is possible...stay in vancouver and visit LA for 2 weeks and then go back and still maintain H1 status..
what do you say..after all the stress!

Sorry to hear your situation. There is you and several other members who I have had a chance to speak to, are going through a tough time in life (both on personal and professional fronts) due to not having a greencard. Such experiences are my motivation to work as a volunteer and core member for IV and do something to solve problems faced by several thousands of people like me. IV is currently the only organization in USA working for the cause of legal high skilled immigrants. This IV forum has brought all of us together on one platform where we can share our views and pain. Members have come up with ideas and helped this community in any way they could. Some members decided to join this effort as core members and pledged more time and effort in order to bring relief to all of us. It is not an easy job. There is nobody else to work on the issues we face. You have yourself seen how the govt. and lawmakers responded to you and still did not do anything when you tried yourself as an individual. When we try to raise such issues collectively as IV, lawmakers do hear us. With greater membership numbers and resources we can certainly do much more to influence them and get the laws changed. Members pls. help us increase our membership and funding so that we can all collectively bring about a change and provide relief to everyone in our community. desibechara, If you have decided to move to Canada, good luck to you and your family. Do keep in touch with this forum. Hope we all members of IV can collectively work soon enough to get something done for ourselves to end our miseries.

Do you really agree with multi-national managers(via L1A). This is the area wherein the interpretation is pretty loose. If you dissect EB1 data you would find that EB1C used bulk of it except for this year due to bad economy and tightening of screws. There should be some very clearly defined guidelines for EB1-C, somebody being an onsite coordinator or managing 5 people should not be eligible. This category should be reserved for those who are managing at least 100 people or control business in several millions. I agree that EB1 should be just for the exceptional.
teddy the pun "multi-national managers(via L1A)" was intended. if that makes it clear.
anyway, the focus of this thread was about the president's immigration speech. Atleast the speech included the fact that illegal immigration makes a mockery of legal immigration. understood that any solution also must include finding a way on how to handle the undocumented people.
anyway, the speech for now might be just a start or more "kick in the butt" to let the congress know that they need to start work in CIR. when it comes to fruition is anybody's guess.

Yes but in Canada you will breathe clean air and drink clean water. You will have electricity 24 hrs a day and water 24 hrs a day. You wont find trash on the street and you wont be considered second class citizen if you arent SC/ST/OBC due to reservations. You woint have to give "donations" to get your kid admitted to Class 1. You wont face a system where a simple court case drags to 50 yrs or a case where doctor will not treat if before police does a "Panchnama" if you had an accident. You wont have to bribe everyone from minucipality to police to start a business.
I have driven in and around Toronto for a couple of hours and did not find it much better than driving in Trivandrum/Cochin.
Other points, I can only talk relating to the US and here we go.
"you will breathe clean air and drink clean water." - The air in the US is as polluted as that in India as attested by the rising level of Asthma and the repeated Code Red warnings during summer time. Almost same story for water. About a year back, the DC govt. even admitted that the water supplied by them contains too much bad stuff.
"You wont find trash on the street" - only when you live in a decent community. Just walk around half an hour around NorthEast DC and hope you will change your mind. Do not attempt to walk around the downtown of any US city after 6 PM. We don't want to loose any of the IV members.
"you wont be considered second class citizen if you arent SC/ST/OBC due to reservations." - Who is considered second class citizens is a subject unto itself. But if you are complaining about reservations, you have never heard of affirmative action.
"You woint have to give "donations" to get your kid admitted to Class 1." - Agreed public schools are free, just like they are free in India. If you want your kid to study in a private school, please pay $5000 per year.
"You wont face a system where a simple court case drags to 50 yrs" - I had prefer a case dragging for 50 years or more against a wrong court decision such as we saw during the 2000 US presidential election.
"a case where doctor will not treat if before police does a "Panchnama" if you had an accident" - I think the situation in India has now changed regarding hospitals refucing to treat people due to police case and such. Now, all hospitals (private hospitals included) are required to treat traffic accident victims asap.
I am not trying to say, India is paradise. We have lots of crap going around. Many things still stink, but so is the situation in many "great" countries.
Cheers,

Nothing. Even you loose $20 bill everymonth, it won't be a big deal or even if you get it everymonth by way of incentive, not a big deal. :p
One of my friend told me that he got his labour certification approved yesterday, I said "Welcome to the world of frustation" where there is no entry fee but an exit fee is $20 a month.
I think if all of us (Existing contributors) could succeed in getting one more contributor then we would be double in number very soon.

In most critical situations a person can file a lawsuit in federal court and ask court to 1) compel USCIS to process your EAD within 1-2 days and 2) enjoin DHS from going after the employer if person continues working with expired EAD. Part 2 is available only if employer wants to participate in a lawsuit. Otherwise, file it yourself, it requires the same amount of time as filing for EAD.
