I think this is a very interesting topic. Neelima's story is about an American citizen of Indian origin. Since, she is an american she can choose to go to courts whereas we are non-immigrants with very few rights. If you are facing abuse at workplace the only solution for an H1B worker is to change jobs.
That having been said, this highlights a very important aspect of the american society (or rather any culture) in general. You can become a US citizen but unless you are a european (read caucasian) immigrant you will become a hyphenated american. You can spend all your life in US and you will still be referred to as Indo-American/Asian-American at various points in your life. Some of it will be generic comments, some of it will be racist. Infact, you will always face more harassment from your fellow countrymen (e.g. desi consulting/desi manager) in US than from americans. An industrialist from Punjab visiting US gave me a fine example of this. He said, we employ 75% labor from UP/Bihar because they are cheaper and subservient. We make one of them the foreman and he's the one responsible for getting the work done. The same thing happens in US, the first line managers are Indians and so are the tech employees. [Off course, some of the Indians have risen to great positions on the corporate ladder and that is a testimony to both their abiliity and the general open-mindedness of american people.]
The choice is yours. Do you want to enjoy the wealth of this great country and tolerate occassional racism or do you want to be in your own land and be not as well off?
On a lighter note, as far as curry smell is concerned, I have heard goray complain about curries, Indians complain about how chinese ppl stink up the kitchen when they heat food. None of the smells are offensive, ppl just aren't used to those smells.

PCS would be best person in my view, As midWest manufacturing
woes are used to bash off-shoring. His work will be great example
How immigrants with technology/business skills can help remove the
joblessness crises in midwest and also move that region into high tech
era.
Great work PCS.

EB3 is not working, because we have no hope, not because we all went back or have ported.
Say only EB3 India. not whole EB3. EB3 ROW have no problems.
If EB3 India have no hope then why do they visit forums, check visa bulletin every month, ask questions if something is going to happen?
Should they be stoppoing it and forgetting greencard if they have no hope?
EB3 are doing on the oppsosite because they have hope. So do not lie to yourself and use it an excuse to not do anything.

This is unprecedented - NSC was doing Eb3 140's slowly and now they stopped.
NSC EB2 140 is July 5th 2007 (my friend got approval yesterday by filing in Aug 2007)
Clear your cache and then reopen browser - you should be able to see MAY 15th update.
Thanks,

If it is any more ridiculous, it'll be funny.

Is there anyone who got an appointment letter recently from Amercan Embassy, MUMBAI?
My interview is scheduled on 22nd Aug but not received letter yet.
How did you know that an interview date has been set for Aug 22? I have contacted the embassy and am still waiting to hear from them beyond their auto-reply.

Hello Dude,
Bangladesh- EB3.. You are one son of gun lucky dude. :)
Wish you and your family all the best in the Future.
Now, can I expect you to donate your 1st million for us to lobby in here? Man it would be of great help.. please....
---------------------------------------
Indaianabacklog --- Why the he** dont you understand you are born in the damn country with Billion people? But if you are not, then yes its a surprise. But how are you ROW?
And also from my experience --- You got to keep poking the USCIS authorities for them to wake up and take your application to process.
Let me tell you my story:
My company applied for my extension after 1st 3 yrs of H1 last year in Sept. I expected to get extension before Nov and I had planned to go to India in December. Well the dec came and I did not have extension, but I went to India as I was supposed to hoping that the extension would just arrive. Dec over, Jan over, Feb over, I am sitting Idle at home in India. Then I called USCIS- the officer told that since I left the country while extension applied and my h1 has expired, it means I have abondoned my application.. What the f***. Well, later I started following up with my h1 company.
Finally my office Amin staff personally went into USCIS office, explaining my situation and also showing proof that the client is waiting for me to get back and start work, I got h1 extension approved on Jul 24th.. What a relief.
Ran to Chennai for stamping and flew into Bay Area. Next day Med appointments cause i was to file 485 before Aug 17th.
Oh Gosh! I could barely do that and my application reached the NSC on Aug 17th. Now got the receipt numbers.
So Unless you keep poking them You wont hear updates. Just my 2 points experience in the swarm of people here.

If your case is older than 12 months from the date of judgement you can have your case expunged from public records. As of today your's is a public record and is on every entry point in the country. As per immigration laws the IO has the authority to turn you back if you have been found guilty. The best for you is to have the expungement of your case and no one will have the access to your case except FBI.. This may take anywhere 2-3 months from the date you file for expungement..
Avoid travelling till your expungement is done..to be considered for expungement there should not be any other sace pending against you.
Good Luck.. talk to your attorney and file for it even if you are not travelling it will be good for you for future employment etc. also..

Clouds appear,
and give people a chance to rest,
from looking at the moon.
Think of the case status website as the moon, and this little distraction of a poetry session as clouds.
This one is from the famous Japanese Haiku master Matsuo Basho. Hope it mollifies all those who complain that this site is becoming too India-centric.

Yes, facing the same issue. I mailed my application on Jan 12th, got the receipt on Jan 28th.
Hoping the information would get updated today. If not, we would have to wait till 15th. I tried calling the 1800 number, the support person had no idea on the updates since this case is with the National Records Centre.

Cash Surrender Value
The sum of money an insurance company will pay to the policyholder or annuity holder in the event his or her policy is voluntarily terminated before its maturity or the insured event occurs. This cash value is the savings component of most permanent life insurance policies, particularly whole life insurance policies. Also known as "cash value", "surrender value" and "policyholder's equity".
Notes:
Cash surrender value applies to the savings element of whole life insurance policies that are payable before death. However, during the early years of a whole life insurance policy, the savings portion brings very little return compared to the premiums paid.

indianindian2006, I also got OCI for my Son, issued in June 2006 (both parent Indian Citizen). I have read one case who applied in Nov 2006 and it got rejected so it seems that rule got changed sometime in 2006.
indianindian2006, do you think we have to do anything now. I am worried that it might create issue for our kids OCI in future. It will be good to have some documentation with us.
does any one have any reference/url to this rule change.
In 2005 my first kid got an OCI as the rules were diiferent then but in 2009 the current rule is that one parent MUST be a US citizen and I had to take a PIO for my second kid in 2009.

Other than the trust that the core members are doing the right thing, I have no information/idea about the issues that IV core is focusing currently.
I think FOIA was a great success because the members knew exactly what IV was upto and everybody wanted to be a part of it. I believe that if IV could define several small goals like FOIA, post regular updates about the progress on the goals, a lot of people would be willing to support it.
