Microsoft is definitely working on increasing H1-B and EB GC quotas. It is possible that they might have been one of main proponents of the immigration clauses in S.1932

You are right
This link says http://www.virginia.edu/iso/issp/OPTandH-1B.ppt#3
It is 90 days without employment on OPT. 10 days of unemployment between two jobs does not count towards the limit. You can also work part-time (20 hrs/week) or as a volunteer to stop the counter.
I recommend contacting your international department for details. They should be able to guide you depending on how useful/active they are!

Hi All,
Q1) I would like to take a US consulate appointment for visitor's visa for my father. We are from southern Andhra Pradesh and Chennai consulate is convenient for us. Since Hyderabad has US consulate, does whole of Andhra come under HYD consulate jurisdiction? or can we take appointment in Chennai Consulate? Could you please let me know? My father is going for visa for the first time.
Q2) If visitor passport is expiring in next eight months and if the visitor is residing in US, is it possible to renew the passport here? Or the person has to go back to India and renew the passport there. I would just like to help my parents with the paper work and get it done if possible when they are here.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks.

My 485 case is pending under EB3 category but my employer has already filed for EB2 labor which got approved and now I want to know if I can apply I140 for EB2 to interfile under 'Premium' Category? Are there any restrictions on applying I140 under premium processing?

I have renewed my DL in VA while my H1B was pending last year (Oct 07) . All you need is your H1-B application receipt and they will extend it by 1 Year.

Hello All,
For the Visitors Visa(for parents), can a photocopy of Pay-check's be sufficient. Since the last few pay-rolls, my employer is giving everybody a photocopy of the Pay-check from Pay-chex Inc.To reduce costs of printing and mailing the Pay-checks, My employer is asking Pay-chex Inc to email the Bi-weekly pay-rolls of everybody.
Wondering if the US Embassy in India would create an issue by not bringing the original Pay-stubs.
Thanks!!

Last year CIR expired. Yes, senate must pass its own version of the bill. It could be that it will be a very similar to CIR from last year. If only house passes its own bill, and no senate bill is passed, there is no new law. Both chambers must act in order to create a new binding law.
Keep the fingures crossed this year as Senate power balance is changed.

I came across a posting today for a local contract position, which was a good match for my profile. But when I sent my resume in, the vendor said we cannot proceed because the end client asked for either citizens or GCs. I thought it was strange, because it is a contract requirement, not fulltime. This is the first time that I have encountered someone requiring a GC for a contract posiiton. Further, this is not a defence or state department kind of deal where you'd need citizens. I would understand if they said 'citizens only', but GC or citizen does strike me as unconventional.
Can someone please advise if this is allowed by law?

It would be not hard to make an IV facebook application that contains
- an install page,
- a page where our core issues can be listed and members can express support for each issue
- a page where running issues can be listed and members can sign petitions online (see capital fraternal caucus app as they push their greek related issues via Patton Boggs in Washington)
- and optionally a facebook bolstered discussion board.
The newsfeed feature/invite friends should help viral spread of the app.
A member suggested that it maybe a good idea to have IV presence on facebook. This will help increase our publicity among our friends whom we can recommend to join. Our aim is to get as much publicity and membership at this time so that we can succeed in our upcoming campaigns.
We have a group called 'Immigration Voice' on Facebook now started by IV core.
Could you now help us increase the publicity of IV on facebook among your friends so that we get more participation on IV site
Someone who knows facebook well, pls post ideas how we can use it best to our advantage.

Hi,
I have received the EAD card yesterday with No finger prints available. But we have done our Finger printing before the EAD is approved. Approx 4 weeks before.
Is this normal? Or i should contact USCIS about this?
I know some applicants getting their EAD cards before finger prints were taken for them No finger prints available makes sense.
Any responses are appreciated
Regards.
Same happened to me. I had my FP before receiving the EAD card but the card still showed FP not available. To be honest I didnt care so much ;)

It's really unfortunate, but what's in that cartoon is the truth. The humor is for people who don't have to go through that flow-chart or the people who get out quick.
for people who are in that loop for 13 years, it's the tragedy of life.
Nevertheless, I vote for that cartoon. I think it can depict the truth, pains of immigrants through a medium that a layman can understand.

Immigration Visa Attorney Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
When the Senate advanced the job-creation bill last week, employers were given the signal that hiring tax incentives are on the horizon. Perhaps in a nod to the Administration's No. 1 priority of creating jobs for unemployed Americans, the USCIS has just announced a forum on the EB-5 immigrant investor program. In the last year, and as recently as December 2009 (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=facb83453d4a3210VgnVCM100000b92ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=facb83453d4a3210VgnVCM100000b92ca60a RCRD), the USCIS issued updated guidance on I-526 and I-829 filings (http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocuments/eb5_17jun09.pdf) so that USCIS adjudications could make decisions with clarity and consistency, allowing investors to make job creation through the EB-5 program a reality soon as possible. These are all indications that this is the time for foreign investors to again bring private enterprise to our great nation.
The upcoming USCIS EB-5 forum is only open to attorneys representing these so-called "million dollar investors." Fong & Chun attorneys will be in attendance and ready to present concerns facing our clients as well as potential issues for those investors considering the EB-5 program.
It is true that the EB-5 investors greencard process is often called "hypertechnical," and has in the past been plagued by administrative delay and inconsistent treatment. But I believe that the view of recent USCIS' actions, the agency is acknowledging just how critical the EB-5 investors program is to our nation's economic recovery. For each EB-5 investment, 10 full-time jobs must be created, and that means 10 more working Americans. Call Fong & Chun, LLP if you would like to discuss how you can start investing in America. ---ecf
