The Burning Problem
Long wait times of 5-10 years for EB2/EB3 Employment based greencard applicants from India.
Please convince TODAY as many friends as you can to become proactive in participating in the campaign for getting Green cards faster. Pass this message to as many as you can (students, H1 holders, spouses etc), and ask them in-turn to do the same and take action.
The new government is willing to hear us unlike never before.
What should you do: Please do both.
1. You can vote here
http://citizensbriefingbook.change.gov/ by searching using “immigration” as key word. You will find atleast 10-20 questions already there. Click on the UP arrow to vote positively.
2. And you can submit your ideas here
http://change.gov. You will be asked to register. Please do it with actual details with no fear. We are legal here and many of us have done it, there is nothing to fear. This is just one way to start.
The details:
So far, there has been much action or participation on addressing the problem. This is totally unacceptable, when the issue affects 400-500,000 of applicants but those fighting for this cause are very few. This issue needs your support.
We are legal immigrants who bring innovation, create value, build companies and jobs, and contribute in many ways to the economy. The system was fine 4-5 years back, but now it’s severely backlogged. Do not think “it is not my problem now”, because you will be also effected by the negative impact. Reports say only 5000 people are voicing their opinions, even though the problem affects more than 500,000 applicants (and their spouses).
We just need a small administrative fix to recapture the lost visas and also make sure the system respects skilled workers and their interests. If anyone does not know what EB2 EB3 is, please explain to them. We need to request the government to make the waiting period no more than 5 years of being legally in the US, and to immediately bring relief to EB2/EB3 applicants from India by clearing backlogs. Remember that you will be at the end of the line, if you did not yet apply. Right now undocumented workers are raising more voice, openly.
Immigrationvoice.org is one good site to participate to name one. Let’s help ourselves and each other. Also register in this site or any other, and start contributing your ideas for your own good.
Please pass it to as many friends as you can, and motivate them.
