Bring it on !! Hurray !!
This appeared in todays Business Standard Newspaper in India. Atleast, the issue came up for discussion.
Here it is.
--------
The United States today indicated that it was willing to consider setting up of a joint technical working group to address the issues coming in the way of finalising a totalisation agreement with India.
New Delhi, on its part, has made it clear that it is not agreeable to the US stance of linking the requirement for a social security net as a precursor to finalising the agreement. India also made clear that it was adopting a calibrated approach to further opening up of the retail and financial services sector.
Indians working in the US have to mandatorily contribute to social security benefits but are unable to repatriate the same when they leave the US, in the absence of a totalisation agreement between the two countries.
The issue was discussed at a meeting of US Under Secretary for International Trade Franklin Lavin and Commerce Secretary G K Pillai in the capital. Commerce ministry officials said the Indian side pointed out that New Delhi had signed totalisation agreements with countries like Belgium and France, which had not set any pre-conditions.
�It was pointed out that India, which is a developing country, effectively gives a grant of $500 million to the US in the absence of a totalisation agreement. The US has indicated that it will soon have a video conferencing on the matter with senior Indian officials,� an official said.
In response to the US demand for further opening up of the financial services sector, the commerce ministry pointed out that India was adopting a calibrated approach on the matter.
�It was pointed out that the Reserve Bank of India has finalised a road map for the gradual opening up of the sector by 2008,� an official said, adding that New Delhi raised the issue of absence of a level-playing field for financial institutions in the US.
�A foreign bank wanting to open more branches in India only needs to obtain the permission of the Reserve bank of India. However, an Indian bank wanting to open up branches in the US has to go through the American federal system and then a state regulatory system,� an official said.
Banks like State Bank of India and ICICI have long pending applications for opening more branches in the US.
India also raised the issue of extending protection to its traditional knowledge under the patent regime in the US.

I completely agree with JK...i work here in Phoenix in a construction company, and many of the legal immigrants (including Latinos, indians etc....brown skin people) have started to worry about this bill becoming law....every other person in our company have experienced what this would bring us....
We have been working in various cities here in AZ, and travel is a must for us...
Once, while I was driving to Tucson for a project inspection, i was stopped by border patrol agents at 2 different locations....i mean to say, they were not stationed in a booth or any thing, they had patrol cars just like cops....they just park their car on the shoulder, and wait for any brown guy driving across....
Infact, one border patrol agent followed me for about 2 miles, then drove right next to me, again slowed down to get behind me, and turned on the lights...so, I had to stop....luckily, i had my EAD card, which is always keep in my wallet, even though I am on H1-B....however, he insisted that we (as in legal immigrants) should carry our passports (Original and not a copy) with us when we travel...which is totally rediculous!!!!!
what irritates me is that these guys don't even understand what an EAD is.....he was expecting that I should have a visa inorder to be in the US....it took almost 25 to 30 mins to explain my status (H1-B, but not stamped in my passport)....that an approved H1-B petition is enough to stay and work in the US.....HE JUST DIDN'T GET IT!!!!!....in the end, this guy, as though he was doing a great favor to me, said that he is allowing me to travel on humanitarian grounds and with a warning....f&*k*&^ bull%^&*......
I have traveled many times with my coworker who is caucasian, and not even once have I had a problem with border patrol agents.....
I just don't know what to say!!!!!! is it their lack of common sense, or knowledge, or is it just plain blunt racial profiling???????

I see the problem with the 1+3 since that would be combining. The 2+3 usually gets accepted. However you just never know how things will go with USCIS.
I really am not able to understand your education pattern
10 = Std 10th
+2 = Std 12th I assume
+1 = Is this the commerce 1st year?
+3 sounds to be your diploma right? now what was eligiblity for the diploma 10th or 12th? I am assuming it was 10? since it was 3 years course.
My friend I hate to be sounding pessimistic but your education might add upto 16 years but it is not progressive 16 years as required for a bachelors program, most of it is redundant. your +2 (12th grade) and diploma are overlapping. Your +1 is completely tangential to your course work. It is same as some one doing 1st year courses for 3 different strems example 1st year Science , 1st year arts and 1st year commerce and then claiming he has equivalent of 3 years bachelors course work completed and so he be awarded a bachelors degree.
Please dont feel bad. I do not want to give you any false hopes. Please consult some proffessional evaluators to check if there is a way they can make your education sound progressive but looking at USCIS response you pasted they have evaluated your diploma and cannot accept it as equivalent to degree program
I dont know who will pay for the MTR + refiling in case your employer is going to shoulder these expenses then there is really no harm in trying but if it is you who has to pay for appeals then my friend it will be better if you consult education evaluators and some other lawyers like Murthy, Khanna to get a second opinion before you embark on this long and costly journey.

I am sure this is the right place to ask such questions but I could not find other thread to post my question.
When we file for I-485, what document do we need to attach to the I-485 form?
Do we need valid Passports?

Hi,
Sorry i updated under the wrong thread.
ours was a paper filed on July 2nd. Card was mailed on 08/07/08. Still waiting for it to make it to the mail box.
I have not recieved any FP notice yet. Surprising I also saw a soft LUD on AP when care production got ordered for EAD but no updates on AP or FP yet.
Hope that helps

Hi Folks,
Here is my situation.
My current working company - EB2- August 2002 - 140 is under processing....
(receipt date for 140 is October 2007)
(thanks to labor backlog center :mad: got stuck in backlog center for 5 years)
With my friend's company - EB3 - April 2004 - 140 is under processing....
(receipt date for 140 is July 2007) 485, EAD, AP filed and got them also.
What all the options I have now? Which one will be better assuming both 140 gets approved.
Thanks

Dear FinalGC,
This answer reallys helps. Thanks for the same.
Along with the budget amount what are other typical metrics for "large" projects like schedule, no. of resources etc. ?
Is there a website or other resource where this type of data is collected and we can take a look at it ?
Thanks in advance for your response.

1. contact all your IV friends
2. contact all your friends in the USA (whether or not waiting for GC)
3. talk to your neighbors in your apartment community
4. hand out bills that describe this action item (We need a poster for this purpose)
In each & every case, offer (as the last option) canned letter format to be filled out and signed... you then photocopy it and mail it!
