Does Talent Bill provision for work authorisation for H1B Spouses mean H4's will be allowed to work?
http://immigrationpage.com/recentnews.php
Read below
The TALENT Bill For Employment - Based - Immigration
The American Immigration Lawyers Association is currently working as part of a coalition of corporations, universities, research institutions and trade associations to help fix problems in the employment-based immigration system. To this end, the coalition has written a stand-alone bill that would assist U.S. businesses in alleviating the specialty occupation worker shortage. Dubbed the "TALENT" bill, the proposal calls for Congress to "address numerous concerns in the employment-based immigration system that hinder the ability to attract, hire and retain the best talent the world has to offer, while facilitating retention of such individuals to create additional innovation and downstream jobs in the United States." Among a variety of other excellent provisions, the TALENT bill would:
* exempt U.S.-educated workers with advanced degrees from the H-1B cap and permit work authorization for spouses of H-1B workers
* create a market-based H-1B cap beginning with a base level of 115,000
* revise the current employment-based preference categories and exempt an expanded EB-1 group from the EB cap, exempt EB-2 from the labor certification requirement, eliminate per-country quotas
Recently, the text of the bill, was distributed to key Senators in the hope of finding a sponsor for the bill in full, or, short of this, incorporating significant portions of the bill into a new Comprehensive Immigration Reform package

I'm curious what it is you are trying to achieve?
Generally, you find zooms are non-linear - the farther towards the "long" end, the more compressed the scale becomes.
If you are wanting to repeated set the zoom to a specific length, I'd suggest a card that has horizontal bars. Draw them at whatever length you determine is a focal-length of interest, so that it fills the entire width of the frame. Do this at some standard distance - such as holding the card at arm's length. Zoom out/in until the desired bar is full-width.
This is hardly accurate if you want precisely "x" mm length, but at least it should allow repeatedly going back to a particular setting, or close to it.

Answers below:
1. Once the I-140 was approved on your behalf, you get to keep the priority date unless the petition is judged as fraud or misrepresentation (per this forum). This is true even if the employer revokes the approved I-140. Keep a copy of I-140 and you should be fine.
2. The job titile need not match exactly, only the category needs to be same (per your labor certification document) - please check out this link (http://www.flcdatacenter.com/OesWizardStart.aspx). Select your job category and locate the job code and make sure the new job has the 'similar' code.
3. Also, starting a new GC process is not linked with the existing I-140 in other words there is no temporal constraint.
4. Not heard about that.

I just skimmed through the page and I see that there are 7 or 8 questions on Highly Skilled Immigration. Any one interested can post their Q as well so that we can make more impact. There are only 300 Q's and I hope he addresses Legal Immigration. Post your Q's. He is an expected Senatorial Candidate in 2008 out of VA.
Any update on this ? Did he answer any legal immigration questions ?

I would advise you to minimise the risk rather than money. May be you can start the GC for future employment. It will take time to do the PERM process and in the mean time you can complete your current project also.
1. Start the H1 transfer and GC process now itself.
2. Stay with your current employer until the project is over.
3. Take the money and join the new company at end of six month if everything goes smooth.
By doing this you get the money and also minimise the risk with new employer. But you need to get the consultant who is ready to do this.

Prevailing wage for EB2 as of latest information i have is $83,200
Hope this helps.
Hello Gurus,
I am currently looking for a job and I have a US Master's degree. I am stuck in this retrogression and my lawyer applied for EB3, and I have no choice but looking for another job that requires me a M.S. with higher salary so I could apply for EB2
Do you know where I can see which is the minimum wage for applying as EB2?? I remember in my Labor certification there was a place where I used to check minimal wage requirements.
I am rest of the world, and having an EB2 application will let me jump out of the retrogression if EB2 continues to be available
Thanks in advance
Kukitron

Which number is used to call FBI?
Please post FBI calling details here..
Dear IVans,
After opening 3 SR's and letter through Attorney and finally infopass appointment (not yet done) got the FP notice for my self today (for the first time and applied for EAD renewal).
My dependent (my spouse) has not received her FP notice yet.
Questions:
1. FP is scheduled for Aug 16 2008 (which is Saturday) and is it common to have FP notice scheduled over the weekend in Dallas TX.
2. My spouse did not receive her FP notice, can I take her along with me for the appointment with all the Recipts (I mean all the req docs), will that work
3. And I have infopass appointment on Aug 12 would that help in finiding more details about my case?
Gurus, Please answers/provide your experience/suggestions to the above questions.
Last but not the least, I would like to thank all those who have suggested me in opening SR, take help of attorney, and to take infopass.
I would also like to thank (posted on other thread) who has suggested to called FBI to find out details, which has really helped me.
Hope this completes my cases.
Good luck to all and my best wished to every one (EB2 & EB3) mates.

All State is saying is that they are giving EB2-India a total of 2987 visas. They didn't care about spill over and slow consumption by ROW. They are still acting stupid but this time they are trying to show reasoning for their stupidity. If this report had a consumption of visas till date for FY10 like in a dash board, then they would have seen their own stupidity clearly.
I think you are making too much out of it. All they have said is 2987 per country. Below they do mention it flows from E1 to E2 to E3. Do you seriously think that they are going to say exactly how much the spill over is?

Just got a word from our attorney that my case was approved on 09/08/2010. In my case USCIS did not update the website with the approved status! Not even a soft LUD.... I don't know their operating standard!
Thanks for many of you reading my post! So now you know even with out USCIS website update there is a chance that ones case would be approved.
Lesson learnt: Always check with attorney!
Now on to the final hurdle! I-485.

Do this: Go to a USCIS certified doctor for a medical exam. Tell them the facts, similar to what you mention in your post. The doctor will suggest the next step. Most probably a certification that you are under proper medication. You need to tell him that you have been tested before and that it was +ve for TB skin test.
My understanding is that the body's reaction to a second TB test is severe.
I have no doubt that all the advice given above is valid. But I thought I will add what I found out during my research just prior to my medicals.
It seems that these days USCIS is issuing RFEs for applicants who skipped the TB skin test but opted do the chest X-ray straight. I saw this on Murthy and several other sites. I know it doesn’t make sense but looks like CIS is pretty strict that the skin test must be done first.
Of course it could be different in your case since you are already on meds. I just thought of letting you know.

The expenses are definitely required - i probably did more renewals and visas than you but that was borne by my H sponsor employers in all cases. Why did you pay on your own ?? Generally peoples who gets paid in Bill rate and make very good money they pay on their own and they don't care 20-25K given the enormous money that they made in 6+ years of H clock.
Regarding GC - my employer paid LC fees, 140 fees and i picked up the fees for 485/EAD/AP because i wanted control on the AOS. I dont want RFE letters to go my employer or their pet lawyer when i've ported off to somewhere else.
Push your employer - why they are called sponsors in H1 based immigration system ?
20K = Using an attorney for H1B Visa, 4 H4, Renewal of H1B Visa + 4 H4, Sponsorship Company got bought and change name = Re-Issuing H1B Visa, PERM Process....
But still.... people ask why illegals just don't come here legally?????? :mad:

Would it be too much to add a second thread that talks about contributions to IV when i look at 5 threads at the top of the list that all track LUD's :)
This spurt of LUD-related threads is a symptom of the COLTS outbreak that has been reported recently. This epidemic seems to break out every time VB jumps ahead a few notches :)
