I flew Air France several years ago.
Had a bad experience. They had not issued a Paris-Delhi boarding pass to me in Atlanta. They said that I would have to get that boarding pass in Paris itself.
In Paris- they refused to give me the boarding pass- stating the flight was overbooked and that I am checking in 'late'. Acknowledged that the boarding agent was wrong in Atlanta. Bumped me to the next flight several hours later.
They have lost all my business since then. I have not flown Air France since then (and likely never will)

Excellent news!!
I am real optimistic that introduction of a separate bill (SKIL)will definitely make its way through. Passage of CIR is primarily restricted because of illegal issues. I hope the house and senate look at the passage of SKIL Bill as a critical step (even if some don't like it).
Wait until they start getting to the details before being optimistic.
By the way, how long does it take for a bill to get debated and voted on from the time it is introduced? Months? Years??

I know this is probably asking for trouble but no movement can be credible without listening to the dissenting voices. So here is my gripe ... You cannot open a single thread or forum without being asked for contributions these days. People are told that if they dont contribute, they are not "supporting the cause".
But the stark reality is this... If you look at the IV website to see what action/progress has been made in "the cause"....there is some vague statement about Patton Boggs and how we have this lobbyist who is educating congressmen...Who exactly? How? When? Oh those details cannot be given.
There is a link about IV in the news...the last time IV was in the news was in Sept 2007 ...19 MONTHS AGO...
Then there is a link about IV and FBI namechecks...The last update is some thread in Feb 08 and this brilliant statement from 2007 ..."IV has met officials from agencies and has raised this issue in the recent past. We have been informed that there is an effort being undertaken to significantly reduce name check backlogs in the next 6 months." SERIOUSLY?? You really expect that you can convince people to contribute based on this flimsy evidence of doing "something" that you really cant tell us ??
For those asking for money, THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE UPDATE ON ANY PROGRESS SPECIFICALLY ACHIEVED BY IV IN THE LAST YEAR AND HALF !!!
How can you justify this? Actually, you dont have to....There are many like me who will answer questions of panicked people about how to navigate the complex immigration system but until IV can provide some concrete proof of what specifically it is doing, how exactly it is spending the money and what roadmap of progress it hopes to achieve and whether it is on its way to achieving it....the money wells will continue to be dry.
And this new caste system of the DONOR forum which basically says screw you to everyone who has spent time, money or effort on IV and completely goes against the "Change for fairness and Justice" mumbo jumbo is a step in the right direction, IV needs to give way to an actual movement that actually does something and this DONOR forum concept will certainly go a long way in the marginalization of this site and community.
Very valid points. Can you join the team and make it better?

TheOmbudsman,
A number of IV members have complaint about your posts. We know that you have earlier posted on IV forums with the screen names �Communique� and �marlon2006�. If I remember correctly, your handle 'Communique' was banned but it was pretty clear that you were an anti-immigrant. I want you to read this post because in next 15 minutes, I will be putting a ban on your handle.
Immigration Voice forums are created for high skilled immigrants and their families. We contribute constructively to the society. Your hate mongering tone and disguising as 'someone waiting for green card' is pathetic example of how low you can go. I try to read forums everyday and I try to read each and every post. Each day I try to read your post to get more determined to continue to work on this very important issue. But now, I think its time for you to leave IV forums as your tone is again becoming offensive and your posts drive legitimate IV members away.
We are requesting you politely to please leave IV forums alone and do not bother IV members.
Thank you,
WaldenPond
Good call. This was waiting to happen. It also applies to others on the forums who create handle names without their full contact information and post anti immigration, anti IV or offensive messages.

"Does battering members without knowing a real cause and passing judgements and making snide remarks help this movement in any way?
Anyone ?"
Maybe it does, maybe it doesnt, I dont know.
I am one of the few who was all alone in a congressmans office requesting the district director 'lets wait for 5 more mins' because all the people who were supposed to come to the meeting bailed out at the last moment without telling me.
its been 6 months and i am still pissed off about it. My daughter had to be rushed to the hospital the day before the meeting, i still made it. My employers were also supportive about giving me the day off to look after my child and attend the meeting too.
So am I judgemental if someone promises to attend something and doesn't, you bet i am.
Each one is supposed to his/her own part in a own way, but please dont promise something and be callous to ignore it completely. If you can contribute, contribute, if you cant then dont, provide your services in someother way but dont make light of the effort that others put in. The guys who failed to make to the Texas meeting could have emailed or called up and said so.
My Original Peaceful question again:

Peace again..

All law firms hired by the employer will only respond or react to employer and not to the employee. Fragomen is very conservative (not 100% ethical) and will not take any chances with GC processing. Employers will always take the law firm's adivice because they dont want to take any risk either. Fragomen represent almost all of the fortune 100 companies, all of BIG4's, BIG 3's and all major consulting firms.
If you (personally) hire Fragomen directly they will respond to all your queries in timely fashion. You will not talk to the lawyer at all. You will only talk to the paralegal. This is the problem with all big law firms.
Again, the prestige of the law firm you hire does not have anything do with your application.

These small movements does'nt make much difference. It may get retrogressed any time.
I feel DOS / USCIS /Nclex are trying to attract new applicants. This year very few had taken Nclex. These people are in greed of money, they are even planning to increase fee for green card.
This is my view

This does mean the earlier bulletin was valid for few hours and the applications received during that period should be valid!!

That is right. But same country quota is there in EB system also. So in point system also 80% of people will get same quality of people as current system. But advantage is process delay will be eliminated.
Right now, in the EB based system, the employer picks the applicant, not the Federal Government. Also, under the current system, even if the country is limited by quota, it is a soft quota. No matter how you see it, the current system attracts the best and brightest and rewards only only those who are physically in this country with the GC (EB based). how can that be compared to the merit based system which you claim would attract the 80%? Any tom/dick or harry can apply from any country and get thru.
What do you mean by "process delay being eliminated"? It would take years for USCIS to come up with an easy set of rules. Again, the per country quota would kick in. It would take eternity to get a GC under the merit system. I dont see any "merit" in that.

Republicans are generally more amenable to legal immigration fixes than Dems. While not all of the Dems are bad, most of them dont care about legal immigration -- they just want the illegals. If it were not for these Dems, 5882 would have sailed through by now
I am sure NoBama will say CIR. illegals first. etc. etc.
I am not sure how much the next president will affect the passage of the bill through the two houses since they were majority democrat and will continue to be majority democrat. Senate is projected to continue to be majority democrat even after the upcoming election (when 1/3th of the Senate seats are up for election). A Republican president might not veto such a bill. Not sure if Obama would veto a bill which has passed through a democratic majority vote. Just a thought........I could be wrong.

I am seriously considering this option. I have over 6 years experience as Manager in two large Indian IT companies (part of which is in L1A visa). However, I have detailed experience letter for about 2.5 years. The other company (through which I came on L1A earlier) does not give detailed experience letter per their policy. They gave a summary letter with start date-end date, designation and basic salary. I can get maximum point with 4 years experience.
Does anyone know if Canadian Immigration accept secondary evidence like coworkers letter and/or my job description as mentioned in the L1 petition by that company.
Also, does anyone know how much prep is required for IELTS ?

The reason H4's are ignored, is that 90% of them are woman. Most H1b Contractors come from third world countries. And most men would like to see their wives as housewives only. Also woman are less aware of socio-political issues. When they understand, they can't work on H4 visa, they just accept it as their fate. they never ask for more .
Unless the women on H4 starts to speak up and spread the awareness of H4 issues, getting work permit for H4 will always remain a dream. even though few woman activists are trying to lobby for it. We have educate the Congressmen that Woman on H4 needs to have Work authorization. It is not a privilege. It should be a right. I think ImmigrationVoice should put H4 Work Authorization in their agenda.

I hope this amendment will pass as it was proposed by important senators like, Chairman of Judiciary committee Mr Leahy, Mr Cornyn, Mr Hatch. This alters the equation completely. If it passes, the total EB & Merit based visas are 387,000. The total EB visas as per old system will be 230K.
Merit based system: 247K (147 for newly created point based +90 K to clear backlogs)
Employer Sponsored System (as per amendment) = 140K
Therefore 230K is available as per old EB system. Apart from that, most of the EB1 and EB2 guys and the dependents of EB visa holders will be exempted from numerical limitations. This is the proposal we should support.
So you mean to say that 230K will be for backlog/year and the people who already filed in the old system will also be exempt from the cap if they belong to certain EB1 and EB2.
If the above is true then we should be in good shape as % per eb category is increased and masters exempt.
