Here is the deal, the idea of state chapters is for grass roots organization. We can't reach out to everyone if we don't have remote hubs, it is as simple as that. We recently revived the WA state chapter and I keep sending emails, one or two respond, the rest are silent readers. However they did join the group and we are now 30+ members. Now, we plan to have a conference call and then we are planning to get together within 2 weeks to meet all of these members. No one is forced, but we would send out and invitation to every member. Then we come out with certain agendas and action items that fall within IV goals. Like one of the main things is to meet local law makers within each state for follow up. This is best done at state level. So I understand the part that you care confused is nothing is happening and you just keep writing. I know the feeling but can you get everyone together, can you get to meet them one by one. Trust me, once you get the ball rolling, before you know, you will have a big strong chapter that makes it easier to pass targeted messages and so on. When IV events are held in a national level, information and action items can be distributed to state chapter leaders who can then follow up.
But yes, it is hard work in the beginning to get every one on board, trust me, I am fighting the same battle, but hard work pays off!
Well siad - I am also of the same humble opinion. It is hard work now. Mobilizing people is no easy task, but we have to and I know we can do it.
Once we start our activities at the state level, we can make it easy at the national level.
We can let IV core concentrate on their high level agenda while at the local level we can motivate and mobilize the TEAM.
Together we forrm TEAM IV

Thanks kshitijnt.......
After posting my question here I was searching on the net and came across This doc (Topic # 4) (http://www.murthy.com/mb_pdf/mar1904.pdf) which states that......
USCIS is seeking for the current immigration status and not the one we entered on.
The above referenced document is pretty old and I don't know how far it is reliable....any insights?

Dude,
Either write in Hindi or English because your sentences dont make any sense at all atleast
grammatically.
It is hypocrite and not hypocrate.
I can speak Hindi, Urdu, Tamil and Telgu besides English.

You still dont know how to write Hindi. I was appreciating psaxena's hindi comment.

As we have been learning, majority of the American public (including your neighbors) associate immigration reform with illegal immigration. Now if you ask them politely and ask whether they support immigration for highly skilled/highly educated individuals (already in the US working), you will hear no protests.
So basically, it boils down to awareness. When we have people affected by retrogression, unaware of the issues, how can we expect a lawmaker to know the inner details?
Just contact the lawmaker's office for creating awareness. Pro/anti-immigration is an after-thought.
Correct. No matter what is the party affliation, if you explain the hardships
of Skilled Workers and their issues, people agree that they should get relief..
(unless offcourse if you are talking to KKKs!)
IV I think has done a great job in spreading awareness.

There are around 400 immigration litigation lawyers. If 10 members can volunteer and send this template it can be done. I am in between projects and I cannot devote any more time for this. ...
If you are so sure about this, why don't you consider spending your own money to get initial professional consultation. May be that will enlighten you. Many laws don't apply to Immigration Laws, so what you have written has no meaning.
Answer just this question - Can an H1-B worker claim that he/she should be sponsored for green card just because his/her coworker has been sponsored? Just think about the answer and may be you will see the reasoning.
People here are mixing different laws without knowing each law's applicability limitations.

I was 100% determined in the beginning to attend the rally, but could not for the following reasons.
1> I was in Dallas and family in SoCal for last 9 months(from Dec 2006 to be precise). I used to meet my family every other weekend. Was trying very hard to find a project in Socal, and finally I got one where joining date was Spet 13th. I could not dare to ask for leave in the very first week. To tell you the truth it took so long b'cos of H1 status, everybody wants me to transfer my H1 or they are looking only for GC/EAD holders. Hoping to get EAD soon.
2> My husband was planning to attend but somewhere in Aug last week we got FP notices and date is Sept 18th. The FP letter clearly mentioned that postponing might cause delays so we decided that he also has to drop the idea.
Of course we contributed towards the rally.
I am very proud to be part of such excellent grass root organization and now since I am in Irvine I can be active in Socal chapter.
Also we are eager to join in the next rally and have total faith in IV leadership.

Paskal,
Personally, I feel state chapters is a not-working concept. Having bigger chapters like TriState, Midwest... and better still 'East Coast chapter' is a face saver until we have sufficient numbers. There should we a minimum threshold say 40-50 [I'm keeping it low] members to sanction a state chapter.
I question why there should even be a MI chapter, when there are hardly 3-4 (am I exaggerating?) active members and the newsgroup is dead for all purposes? It's depressing and demotivating. We are better off in bigger regional groups until we have sufficient numbers to justify a chapter [ supply to follow demand, and not vice versa].
Right now, active members in not-so-active state chapters feel abandoned. They don't have an active chapter, and active chapters in other states don't want them ( go to your own). For e.g in there was no MI chapter, I would be a member of Midwest chapter or East Coast chapter, adding numbers to those.
State chapters were formed earlier. Then at NY, tikka came up with a brialliant idea of clubbing nearby states so that numbers rise. So we formed Tri State chapter.
We do have close to 80 people in the list and is growing, and PA members now have been able to revive their chapter.

This question is not to undermine the effort, which was tremendous but just from a realistic point of view...
I'm just curious to know how long it will take (or rather how long we are prepared to wait) for the impact of this rally to be felt and what are the changes that can be expected from USCIS as a result ?
Say, after waiting for a few months, status quo continues, what further actions are planned to persist with IV's cause (i.e. more rallies or by other means) ?
If the same question has been already raised, please ignore.
Thanks.
Vin,
I dont think the question is about price of action. Its the price you are going to pay for inaction. Each of us is impacted one way another. So, do you really want to sit at home and do nothing about it?
how many times do you take the approach of inaction to solve a problem?

Trying to apply AP for spouse, his last entry into US was on F1 but since then he's been through H1 and current status is AOS filed. Should the Class of Admission be F1?
Which I-94 copy should be attached, the one that was stamped when he last entered US, or the latest I-94 he received from his last H1 filing?
Thanks in advance ..
