pingpong02, Forget about Sonia comming to power. Our guys will never let her come into power. She will never be accepted as prime minister by majority of Indian voters. Congress has burnt their fingures in last general election projecting Sonia as PM. This time, congress may seek Priyanka...

pingpong02 Thank you. I hope Dual Citizenship for PIO's must come into effect soon before the next general elections in India. NDA Govt. at India has already approved it. Political Parties in NDA must be getting lots of donation for election campaign from NRI's & PIO. Its well known that NDA...

First of all american workers are an immigrant except for Native Indians. This is the fact. Most of them immigrated few generations before. Every Tech sector in US has contibution from one or more recent immigrant. Just because a person got a Green card or will be getting it sooner does not...

itsmme123, Why don't you consider talking to leading Immigration lawyer like Rajiv Khanna or Shiela Murthy? You may have to spend some money from your pocket but these lawyers may help you expediting your case.

DOL has made all foreign labor information public. Read my earlier posting.

Naveen111, You have crossed 180 days of applying I-485 (Your RD date 07/05/02 as posted). Its better that your company X need not go for I-140 ammedment at this stage. There are possibilities of you getting approved without going for I-140 ammendment. If BCIS raise a RFE, you can reply...

Data Sync. between BCIS and IRS may happen once in a year. If the reported wages in last year is lesser then the one posted in labor, BCIS may like to see the latest one before making a decision. Its may be a complex decision and BCIS may likely to see the most recent wages.
