Immigrants at USC have helped design a special randomization program for LAX security called ARMOR! Doctoral student, Pankaj Paruchuri, and his professor, Milind Tambe, have designed this special program that will help National Security and enhance the security for all of us!
A Random Weapon in the War against Terror (http://http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21035785/site/newsweek/)
I can bet that the Doctoral student himself must have faced Backlog/ Retrogression at some time! I do not know him, but I think IV should contact him!

Dear All,
My wife had applied for H1 last year through one desi employer. We received the H1. The employer took initial money from us to pay for the H1 fees promising that once project got started he would pay back. But during search for a project he mentally harassed us a lot. Luckily my PD became current, my wife got EAD and we could work independently. We were thinking of complaint against him to DOL. We have even prepared the case with all the documents and everything.
We were ready to send it but yesterday we came across a case of one Vishal Goyal who sued Patni for paying him low wages. Patni then threatened to harm his family in india if he doesent withdraw the case.
We are just afraid of something like that. I request people to please share if they have been abused by desi employer and if they have sucessfully complained to DOL and their experience in what they went through. Thank You.

Firstly, I don't understand what was the rush to file for your wife's H1 when your PD was so close. You must have seen the market in US for a long time and must know how desi consultancies work. Having said that, I would encourage you to go ahead and file the complaint. Don't get scared by these threats, it's not easy to harm anyone's family even back home in India. I took my employer to the court and the case was settled between lawyers but for you DOL is better. If you don't do anything at this point, it will keep bugging you all your life that you couldn't do anything against a blood sucker even when you are in USA (in my case that was the motivation even though I was at the edge financially).

Friends / Gurus,
Your suggestion:
1. Stack back with old attorney
2. Stack back with old attorney, unless I get any RFE (hope not)
3. Change to my attorney even though it is expensive, which is always safe. As adviced by pappu or logiclife.
Hi Shana,
I am going thru same thing, my situation is a bit different. My current company (Company A) is big public company and they sponsored my GC - labor+I140+I485. So the company attorney dont have any responsibility towards me and they rarely talk to me - even when they talk they talk as if I am the enemy.
Now I am planning to use AC21; interviewed at couple places. Have one offer - talking to employer regarding my EAD/AP/485. Their initial reaction is to use EAD and they would renew it. They were not talking about 485. Have another chat with them on Monday but I am confused what to ask. I am leaning towards having my own attorney to answer any RFE's and to renew EAD/AP. I will request the new employer to commit to providing any documents that I may need. Not sure if it works. If it doesnt I may go with their attorney if they agree to take over my 485 (to answer any RFE's) and renew EAD/AP annually.
(note: please see your PM)

The bill seems to apply to future PhD candidates who will come on an "F4" visa. Will current PhD candidates who will graduate on an F1 visa be similarly able to adjust status after 1 year of employment? If it does not, the potential benefits will be seen only after 4-6 years, which is when new candidates on an F4 visa will be getting their PhDs!
Also, are these clauses applicable to PhDs in the life sciences? The actual language seems to talk about the "physical sciences", which I think excludes the biological sciences/ biotech, one of the areas of greatest advancements in recent and future years!
Interested individuals should contact lawmakers about these points and have them amend it!
If they do implement a new F4 visa, they will allow you to transfer to F4 status I believe. And then current PhDs would be getting the benefit of the new law. Its unlikely that biological science are not a part of physical sciences. What they mean when they say "Physical" sciences is that other sciences like Tom Cruise's scientology and stuff like astrology/palmistry and other fake science is not included as a field in which one could do PhD and obtain GC.

I guess there is a �law� which allows the Attorney General to cancel your removal process if certain conditions are exists. So, this is not automatically granted like you can file for it �hey I�m here more than 10 years �� it states only that they �may� cancel the removal� ( by the way this is during the deportation process � so probably you do not want to test this part)
Read below:
INA: ACT 240A - CANCELLATION OF REMOVAL; ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS
Sec. 240A. 1/ (a) Cancellation of Removal for Certain Permanent Residents.-The Attorney General may cancel removal in the case of an alien who is inadmissible or deportable from the United States if the alien-
(1) has been an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence for not less than 5 years,
(2) has resided in the United States continuously for 7 years after having been admitted in any status, and
(3) has not been convicted of any aggravated felony.
(b) CANCELLATION OF REMOVAL AND ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS FOR CERTAIN NONPERMANENT RESIDENTS.-
(1) IN GENERAL.-The Attorney General 2/ may cancel removal of, and adjust to the status of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence, an alien who is inadmissible or deportable from the United States if the alien-
(A) has been physically present in the United States for a continuous period of not less than 10 years immediately preceding the date of such application;
(B) has been a person of good moral character during such period;
(C) has not been convicted of an offense under section 212(a)(2), 237(a)(2) , or 237(a)(3) , subject to paragraph (5) 2a/ 5/ ; and
(D) establishes that removal would result in exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to the alien's spouse, parent, or child, who is a citizen of the United States or an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence.

No the H1B doesn't become INVALID.
You just may not be eligible for another extension.
All:
What happens to an H1B (based on 3 year extension derived from approved I-140 & pending I-485 with dates not being current). Does I-485 denial result in the H1B also being invalid?

All,
I posted another thread asking folks to thank core members for their sacrifice and great leadership. But at the same time few members like to "excercise their
freedom of voice" & We should all agree that constructive debate & sometimes criticism brings in new ideas and better path.
We should define ground rules for ourselves which will lead to efficient use of core members time:
1) Ensure that we make every effort to find answer before asking question/suggestion/complaint.
2) Keep one long thread without duplication.
3) Understand that Core members have job/family , so they have limited bandwidth .. please exercise patience.
4) Maintain civil constructive discourse, Which has a referanceble information if You want to send a link to a lawmaker or any other authority/influencer/potential volunteer or help someone become a wellwisher.
5) Understand the limitations of IV/lobbyist , So help them to make things happen & don't expect gurantees.
6) Never use derogatory remarks, even against proven distractors.
7) Please put forward only genuine concerns clearly to avoid misunderstanding
8) Ignore "whiners", But fully respect people with genuine concern/objection.
9) Please put forward only thoughts relevent to scope of current forum/discussion..
.. eg. "Discussing the gramatical mistake of someone's message is not relavent to this forum .." .
10) Always keep in mind that this is public forum , so It is our responsibility to show ourselves collectively in positive light
by not only passionate for our cause , But also professional in our responses.
11) Try to propose ideas which are attainable/pragmatic or You can add words like "I would like to see".
Definately All of us want some resolution out of this problem, But setting too aggresive milestones may results in
taking off eyeballs from low hanging fruit, wich IV is going after to begin with.
Please add other ground rules, So that we can have a good platform to discuss our issues and influence the working of IV to begin with & US congress eventually.Thisshould be good forum for members like me, who can't fully participate because of demanding schedule, others please participate other ways too.

Dhundhun,
What is your source for the 1% to 5% estimate?
Internet posts. For the last 2-3 years I have been looking about and this be ball park figure given. Also as you see that there is big variation in this; 1% to 5% is a big difference.
It would be nice, if someone has better idea than this wider range.

A) 140 or 485 gets denied and you're on EAD (it means you've already given up your H-1B)
B) 140 gets denied and you're on H-1B (it means you can't use EAD and you can't even stay in this country for 3-4 months without a job on H-1B and still maintain your status)
Gurus, please correct me, if I'm wrong.
Thanks.

Guys,
this doubt is bugging me due to recession fears.

Can I call them and ask about it ? This is scary. My friends who applied after me got it and I'm moving in 2 weeks.
appreciate any suggestions.
dont worry, it is taking a little longer because of the flood of applications. 3 weeks is nothing to worry.
