I understand your friends marriage is important and you can't miss it at any cost.
I'm hoping that since you anyways plan to be in Troy that day, you can try to attend for 15 minutes-30 minutes and then leave for your friends ceremony. I don't think the meeting will be a whole day afair. It might last half an hour to an hour max. Please consider the possibility of partial attendance, if possible, while attending your friends marriage - as every extra member attending the meet is a moralebooster to the rest of us.
It would be great if we can have you there, even if it's just for a few minutes. (You can call one of us later for more details)
I am very sorry but I will not be able to make it on the 20th. I was informed by my Indian friend that he will get married on the same day at Troy too. Talking about coincidence. Anyway, I wish the Michigan Chapter meeting will be successful.

I second that. Ranga, from NJ had an idea about making a documentary to project the whole issue
Can we form a Human Chain protest across the major cities of the country at a predefined date and time. for instance, say Nov 9th between 11.AM and 1 PM.
This way more local people, across the country, can participate and as the timing is around lunch hours, I presume many of us can get back to work within the two hour duration.
May be this decentralized & concerted effort in all major cities/states across the country at a specified time may gather main stream media attention.
This is just a thought...

I really admire that. I feel I missed out on all the satisfaction you get when you are proactive about something.
I was paranoid that all hell might break loose at work when I am gone. Nothing happened. I have to blame my paranoia.
It is the determination that determines us... Now that u have addressed your own fears, you are ready for the next rally... R u??? :)

Contact ACLU for this.
MM Singh daughter is a big shot in it.
our prime minister wants us to come back to India. So his daughter may not be a good candidate for our GC issues.
Don't get me wrong, as the prime minister, he is interested in India progressing and using our talent for that purpose, not the US taking advantage of us.

See so many ppl getting their EADs in 15-20 days. Mine was filed in first week of May at NSC, still no news. From the LUDs, it doesn't appear anyone has touched the applications yet.
Are these fast approvals only from TSC or there r ppl from NSC who see 15-20 day approvals?
so far almost all NSC approvals I have seen are >30 days. TSC is the one with the 2-3 week turnaround time! Even at I-140, mine sat on some shelf in NSC gathering dust for almost a year, while TSC was turning those around in a few months.

Transforming members to contributors is good step but before that we have to work locally to convert "Guests to Members" or a IV "Ignorant to a Guest".Whenever i open IV i see more Guests than Members browsing ... :)
Remember 500,000 folks are stuck in EMP based backlogs - Out of that 23,000 are IV members,may be 30,000 would be anonymous guests , and rest 450,000 do NOT know about IV at all !!!
I mean to spread our movement more on a grass-root level we may need to increase awareness in a planned manner. May be TV Ads,newzpaper, Phone call immigrant house holds, Colored Flyer at Car Wiper - WHATEVER IT TAKES. Twist every ears , pull every hairs kind of thing.
If IV can arrange 150 lawmaker meet with 2500 active folks at DC think about how many meetings can be arranged if there are 25,000 active folks !!!! We dont have that many lawmakers ( 645 someone said )
I know talking is easy on a Friday night over drinks than working and that's what i'm doing right now :) but just thought of expressing my views.
Does any of this makes sense ?
We should focus on spreading awareness about IV. I can't believe I was totally unaware of IV's existence until a month back. I haven't done much but felt strongly about what IV's doing. Me and my wife attended the rally and even contributed for the first time ever. We should brainstorm on how we can get more people on board and on how to transform members into contributors.

The intent of this thread is good. There are however practical considerations.
Many of us are from India. In the era pre opening up its economy, we had many well educated folks unable to get jobs there. The socialist strangle was such that highly educated people had no suitable jobs and private enterprise was actively discouraged. Many sought economic and professional refuge in more capitalist economies and to some extent we are still seeing the spillover from the policies of that era, with an excess supply of human skilled capital there and opportunities still not able to spread to the whole economy/population.
The reason I am saying all this is, investing in skills like masters etc is generally a good thing, but not always. In fact there are many studies to prove this point, some demonstrate that too much education is a negative predictor of economic success.
In our situation, capital is important, whereever we end up. Since in a capitalist model money works for you, and obviously if you have enough of it then you can spend your time doing other things, charity work or whatever warms your heart. Doing an MBA or any other higher education is very expensive in america. It is an investment. If you end up here, it will perhaps turn out to be a good investment, otherwise it will be of limited use to us especially in India, especially if a global recession hits.
Pessimistic you say, lets reserve judgement on that and consider all of the geo political issues going on right now.
If that is so the capital preserved by not doing an MBA in a top ten school which I estimate to be about 60-70K if I am not mistaken might be put to another use.
What do you guys think about this line of argument.

Nice idea but does anyone honestly think the DOL cares. I am somewhat fortunate that my 2002 labor finally got approved in the middle of 2006. My son is not so lucky since he turned 21 while I was waiting. When my senators office took the matter of my son aging out up with the DOL I was told to put him on an F1 visa and send him to college so he can REMAIN (he wants to LIVE here, big difference) in the United States. These people do NOT care what they are doing to your lives. They do not care that my son has NO path to permanent residency any more and that I have to write the enormous check for his tuition twice each year so that I can still have him in the same country as me and his father. I feel awful for anyone still waiting for their labor certification but at least you will eventually get in line for your green card and will get ahead of those filing now with much later priority dates. You are indeed victims but I just wanted to point out that there are thousands of young adult children who have had their hopes for getting a green card totally shattered by this backlog center fiasco.

gaz, I have contributed before, but I am still unable to access some posts. Could that be a problem with the website or am I not understanding you right :confused:? Thanks.
the current subscription model is setup only for members currently contributing. So if you sent a contribution since the FOIA drive - you should have access - contact admin if you don't.

Otherwise read this
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=24315&highlight=donor
What I'm talking about is that I like the idea of members who have contributed earlier to have their contributions applied retroactively towards membership (eg. if someone contributed $123 - they get 4 months of membership - i.e. multiples of $25 per month)
Its only a thought - upto the core and a quorum to decide and act on this.

This is certainly good news for many. However the skeptic in me is feeling very uneasy. Why did they suddenly open the flood gates? Did they purposely create a backlog and then increase the fees (double the fees) just in time? Are we going to face other issues down the line after applying for 485?
I guess for now, we will just celebrate and try to get our 485 applications in before July 31st. After that it is a wait and watch situation.
Congratulations to all who got through this first hurdle.
If you overanalyze any situation, for the matter even, "why come to work?", one will always find consipiracy :)..
I say lets not overanalyze this and lets celebrate and keep our fingers crossed for avoiding any further issues !!..
Good luck..
