Guys...
I dont think it is the right time for any demonstration..no one will even look at us. The whole country is looking at Rita and the soaring gas prices...
Maybe we should wait until things calm down so that we can be heard...
Really hope Rita is not as as bad a Katrina..otherwise it is will become bad to worse for us..No one will be ready to hear our misery...

You are absolutely correct about demonstration. But we can always have targeted awareness efforts. For example sending ILW's letters (that I posted link yesterday here) to contact list in the thread of signature.
I'll appericiate if every body can forward following message to the sponsors of Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act of 2005 (H.R. 2330) bill. More info regarding this bill can be found at

You can modify the following message as you want.
I strongly support the Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act of 2005 (H.R. 2330) and will like to suggest another addition to the bill which can be very useful for the H1B visa holders in this country.
One of the provisions in the bill says that holders of the H-5A visa will be allowed to process their Green cards on their own after they complete 4 years of work in USA. I think it will be very useful if this provision can be modified to include all categories of H type visas and not just new H-5A.

I'll really appericiate if somebody can find email addresses for the following sponsors and post them here so that the message can be forwarded to them.

How does the Retro thing affect getting the EAD?
I am under the impression that as long as u file for I140 and have 1485 waiting for more than 3 months, at least ur spouse can get a EAD.
If I have to wait 3-4 years to get even the EAD, then either I will go back to India or else my wife will divorce me!!

If you don't file 485 then there is no question of getting EAD. Once you have visa numbers available for you and your spouse then you should be able to get EAD within 3 months. However you will not get the Green Card till the time 485 date becomes current with your PD date. Basically you have to keep renewing your EAD till you get the Green Card.

Re: Consular Processing
Would it be a better idea to go for consular processing instead of waiting for the 485 thing? I wonder how long will it take to get 1-140 approved. Very frustrated now because I don't know what to do and I need to get another job. Cannot enslave myself for a company and not reaping the benifits. I guess I may have to call it a day and go back home.

Retrogression of 485 dates affects Consular Processing also since it is either a choice between filing via 485 or CP to get your Green Card. Either way all of us are screwed.

Will the approval notice be sent to employer at same time? My 45-day letter is received at Jan, 2005. I found my attorney's address in 45-day letter is completely wrong (999 Chief Operating Officer, Rockville, MD). Not sure if this is typo or computer software problem and if they fixed the problem or not.
