Hello Guru:
I sent money to India in year 2008 more than 10,000$ for paying the loan of my house. Basically I never had 10,000$ at one time in the bank, it was always between 6-7K $. Do I still need to show to IRS?
Thanks in advance.

2. Sabre Inc: a bunch of small manufacturing firms for automotive, medical and consumer products...see above comment
Or the American Airlines Operations Research Group?
I know Sabre has managed to get a number of laws that benefit themselves passed.
Plus 80K seems like a small amount! That is like the lawyer's fees for 16 of us.

It drives me crazy, I never had success accessing Donor forums when signed in via my Laptop, but, I can access donor forums via my Iphone. I understand what's the difference, anyways all I need is to access donor forums regardless of the device..

I'm Surprised to see people supporting your idea. It is also disappointing to see the attitude of some EB3 members. Where were EB3 members when we are running Admin fixes campaign and Phone call campaign in the last 6 months. We used to get feedback that everyone was happy with EADs and do not care for greencards. How come suddenly all EB3 members care for greencards? We could only get 200 phone calls. We were unable to collect enough funds in the last 3 months to push our 3 bills hard enough. We had to ultimately scale down our lobbying efforts and that may have affected the success of these bills. So if you just want to have a campaign because EB2 dates have moved and you do not like it, it is not justified. Let us think beyond our own case if we have to plan something on a large scale basis as an IV campaign. You cannot run a campaign for items that only help you. If that was true, I guess EB3ROW should also protest now because they are being denied the spillover directly from EB2ROW?
Dont you think there will be opposition from not just employers, universities etc but also from immigrants themselves.
You should find out the reaction from students about this idea. Several H1B workers who are trying for H1B for their spouses will also oppose.
We cannot close the door behind us from where we have ourselves come. There are people who desperately want H1B and get disappointed when they cannot succeed in the lottery. Students do not care about greencards. All they want is a job and H1B. How will you respond to those people?
How will you feel if after getting a greencard, there is again a country limit on citizenship? One needs to move out from the narrow mindset of only thinking about one's own case when you are trying to think of ideas that solve problems of millions. It is this attitude that is our biggest drawback. People only care for their own case. Once they get their greencard or citizenship they never look back and try to help others in line. Instead of helping them, they do not even care for people behind them. If they try to get politically active, they find other causes to work on and are interested in getting their pictures taken with politicians or having dinners with politicians ( Note: IV has met several lawmakers, and even have gone to the White House. But we have never posted any picture on our website with lawmakers) . Political organizations of Indian Americans in US are an example for this. There are plenty of them and they have hardly helped this cause. How many EB applicants from this forum will return to IV once they get their greencard? How many will still contribute to IV? If we had GC holders and citizens caring for this cause, we would have been in a much better place with our campaigns today.
Let us all feel happy for EB2 India and China. Hope they get their greencards next month and no visa is wasted. There are already campaigns running on IV homepage. If you wish to get active, help make this organization strong with your skills, time and money. If you are EB3, try to get others involved in the organization and help get success for everyone.
by Pappu's comments. I am EB3 and I have participated in each campaign. The fact that I personally got zero benefit (no 2 year EAD, no movement of dates, etc) did not dampen my spirit. I am still contributing. Why is any thread that wants to talk about helping EB3 being shown as "pitted against EB2" by the administrators. Is IV only for EB2 and above? I personally do not believe so. When I started this thread I had made it clear that I do not want anyone responding with anything that goes against EB2 or any other category. We just want to brainstorm something that would HELP EB3 and not anything that would harm anyone else. Why such attack on the EB3 community in general? What Pappu means to say is that regardless of my contributions, I am an evil dude because I also want to think about EB3 ??
Your point about returning members after they get their GC is also a concern I had raised. Atleast by running a thread for EB3, our EB2 friends may remember us after they get their GC and some may still participate in the campaigns to help EB3. Atleast I would hope so. Everyone including myself is happy for EB2. I sincerely hope that everyone in EB2 get their GC. I also hope that people stop attacking EB3 by their jokes or taunts. It is an insult to each EB3 person who participates in the campaigns knowing fully well that he/she is in the last category to receive any benefits.

E. EMPLOYMENT-BASED VISA AVAILABILITY DURING THE COMING MONTHS
All Employment Preference categories except for Third �Other Workers� have been made �Current� for July. This has been done in an effort to generate increased demand by Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) for adjustment of status cases, and to maximize number use under the annual numerical limit. However, all readers should be alert to the possibility that not all Employment preferences will remain Current for the remainder of the fiscal year. Should the rate of demand for numbers be very heavy in the coming months, it could become necessary to retrogress some cut-off dates for September, most likely for China-mainland born and India, but also possibly for Mexico and Philippines. Severe cut-off date retrogressions are likely to occur early in FY-2008.

Hopefully its a mistake and they will correct it. I'm surprised. Thank God..I just recieved my H extension this week. I haven't heard anyone's H-1 extension being rejected because of education. Please keep us posted of the developments
Hi there,
I personally seen two of my friends H1 (extension) got denied.
They both work for different desi companies, have been working ever since they are here in US. Have all the documents up to date required by USCIS...yet they got denied....
One friend's denial was because his education did not match his work...although he did his Engg in Comp. Sci. and working as an programmer analyst.
The other friend is awaiting for the reason...he came to know only couple of days ago, and he is literally in shock.
I dont know whats going on???!!!:(

I take that you are from India. Do you think that the education system and the cultural upbringing could be better for your kid in India than in US?
it depends on which country you come from, if you are from India or China may be it works out good for you, as those two economis are growing so fast.
but personally, I am just used this culture here, don;t it's good or bad, I just don't have courage/strenght to go back and start all over again, besides, my daughter is born and raised here don't know how she is going to cope up in India,
so option for me at this time no, I may not go back

Law appears to read that if only one SSN is on a joint return half rebate is given.
IRS rules appear to read that if only one SSN is on a joint return then no rebate is given.
For me the law says the same as the IRS is ruling.
I was only unsure how to handle the case if some
dependents have SSNs and others not.
It may help in certain situations to file separately.
There are now some extra information on the IRS website.

I live in sounthern Cal and got ripped off today by a doc in woodland hills. I strongly advise you to go find a desi doc and this will make the experience better. The whole exam should not cost more than $200 per person (inclusive of all the shots) so guys beware of all the quacks out there. I got cheated but you can learn from my experience. Lemme know if you wanna know a good desi doc in san fernando valley....

After I-485 is filed and 6 months have passed, I can change jobs. But will I have to go through I-140 again? Also, can I retain the old PD?
I thought you could file for a new I-485 only if your PD is current. My PD is not current. Can I still change jobs and file for a new I-485?
Thx.
That is the whole point .. none of us affected by retrogression can file I-485. Once that is filed, you can change jobs without going through I-140 again .. your GC process continues as if nothing happened.However, your new job has to be similar to your old one for your LC to still hold good.
If, on the other hand, you change jobs now (after 140 approval but before filing 485) then there is still a possibility of carrying on with your old PD provided your old employer does not withdraw your application. So you are still at the mercy of your ex-employer in a way.

And let me the first to say that even if the current senate and house is not able to adress our concerns before its term expires...just by having them pass incomplete bills with our provisions sets a very good precedent for the New congress after Nov elections.

"Under the plain language of Section 1155, a decision by the INS to revoke its approval of a visa petition shall not �have effect� unless (1) the alien receives notice of the revocation from the Secretary of State (2) before departing for the United States. In this case, it is undisputed that Chai did not receive notice of revocation�from the Secretary of State or any other party�before
departing for the United States; he was already in the United States when the INS revoked its approval of his immigrant visa petition. Indeed, Chai was already in the United States on a nonimmigrant visa when his immigrant visa petition was initially approved. Therefore, under the terms of Section 1155, the revocation of his petition was not effective."
I'm not sure if this is the same case but there was a case that happened in 2004 where uscis revoked an 140 petition. The attorney used the INA to state that once a person commences journey to usa then the 140 cannot be revoked. This had been tried many times unsuccessfully. However; in this case the attorney was successful.
Guess what; four months later the law was changed to allow them to revoke petitions. Since they changed the law; the 140 was ultimately revoked.
This was a hot topic in 2004 and 2005.

MS - 98-00
H1 - 2001 (desi company)
joined new desi company in 2002 and applied labor in dec 2003.
Employer informed me that he had applied under EB2 (but it was actually an EB3 - infact i actually tried to buy my own labor for 10k , which luckily did'nt work out.Besides the 10k the employer wanted me to work for him for another 1 year)
Joined another desi company in feb 2005 , but the new employer did not file PERM labor until dec 2005.Still with the same company.
Waiting like many others.
