On papaer it sounds like a very good idea. I have canadian PR and I was also very tempted when I read this. But here are some disadvantages:
1. Windsor is a small place so hard for wife to find a job there.
2. Schools may not be the same quality as Toronto.
3. You might be putting your career in holding mode for another 1-2 years whereas you could do a much better job in Toronto.
Basically, my point is in order to try to wait for GC for another 1-2 years, you might have to compromise with your job/wife's job/kids education. I am at a point where I don't want to compromise with any of these if I move to canada. I want to make full use of the freedom of having a PR (take up whatever job/start a business/have wife take up whatever job/good school for kids etc)
I really depends on your situation, by what date do u need to move to canada to retain the PR and what stage of GC process are you in?
I was thinking this is a good way for short term period until we know for sure what is going to happen to us as far as GC situation is concerned. It may not make the most sense in the long term but is a good way of hedging your bets until you know for sure which way immigration issues are headed.
This may be a good soln for people who do not want to loose their Canadian PR or those who dont want to move back to India for their own reasons (ppl like me who have been in this country for 10 plus yrs on F1 and H1 cobined but with no GC in sight).

Hi,
I may know the answer, but I thought i would check.
Below is my situation:
1) I-140 approved in Jan 2008
2) I-485 pending since July 2007
3) I have a 2 year EAD
Now, if I switch my job and the new employer is not ready to transfer my H1-B, can I use my EAD to work(provided my I-140 is not revoked by the previous employer)
Also, any chance that I could keep my GC application alive? what will happen when my Priority date becomes current.
Thanks in advance.

How about sending this letter to senators? May be IV should include it in action items :)

Dear Senator,
I am an H1B visa holder. I entered Unites States legally, studied Masters and maintained legal status for 9 years. I have worked in IT industry, contributed to US economy, paid all federal & state taxes including FICA.
I have been desperately waiting for my green card process, which is stuck in its 1st step - called Labor Certification - for more than 4 years. Even after that, I am uncertain about 2nd and 3rd steps of process. During these years, my wife and I have sacrificed many things to maintain our status and to hold onto this green card process.
It looks like my bad dream is over. Thank you for introducing a draft "Secure Borders, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Reform Act of 2007" in senate.
Now, I can discard all my legal documents, join 11 million undocumented workers, and get Z visa. Then,
1) I wont have to renew my H1B visa each year.
2) I will definitely get green card in 5 years. I don’t have to go through uncertainty of I-140, I-485, I-765, I-131 applications.
3) I can work with any US employer. And, I can obtain competitive salary.
4) I can travel to other countries without hassles of visiting US consulates and visa stamps.
To show my gratitude, I am sending copy of all my legal papers.
As soon as this bill becomes law, I will send you original of all these documents as I wont need them anymore.
Thanks you such a wonderful work.
Sincerely,
An IV Member
Included:
1) Copy of my passport, with I-94
2) Copy of all H1B visa documents
3) Copy of Labor Certification application
4) Copy of tax returns, for all years

UPDATE: My company attorney suggested talking about this in April, and I am nervous about waiting till then in limbo - things are only going bad to worse, I might as well find a job at a place which will sponsor a PERM sooner rather than later.
I request you to PM me if you have any leads for such companies might still be a good bet for filing a PERM.
uhh..damn immigration process..
I was in similar situation last year. This what my attorney told me after layoffs. They have to wait 6 months after layoffs in the company before filing PERM again. The perm filing process in big companies take atleast 2-4 months. So if they are planning to file after 6 months then this is right time to start collecting documents. For this to happen it might need little push from your manager.
If your company is in a situation where they are planning to layoff people continously over the next year(I know one big company which is doing this) then it is better to talk to lawyers right now and decide the course of action because there is no point in waiting until april. If your manager strongly supports your case then some times lawyers can pull off tricks like there are no layoff with this particular skill set or in this division etc..
I dont know of any big company that is hiring. If your resume is hot(has specialized skills) then put it in dice or monster you will always find employer.
You can always switch to consulting and find consulting company which applies for GC right away.

WASHINGTON - Key senators tentatively agreed on a plan to revive a stalled immigration bill on Thursday, aided by President Bush's support for a quick $4.4 billion aimed at "securing our borders and enforcing our laws at the work site."
Officials who spoke on condition of anonymity said Republican and Democratic supporters of the bill were presenting their proposal to the Senate's top two leaders, who in turn arranged an early evening meeting to discuss it.
Precise details to be presented to Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., were not disclosed.
In general, according to officials familiar with the discussions, Republicans and Democrats would each be accorded roughly a dozen chances to amend the measure, with the hope that they would then combine to provide the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster by die-hard opponents. The officials who described the emerging plan did so on condition of anonymity, saying the negotiations had been conducted in private.
The legislation has generated intense controversy, particularly for provisions envisioning eventual citizenship for many of the estimated 12 million immigrants now in the country unlawfully. The bill also calls for greater border security and a crackdown on the hiring of illegal employees.

"We're going to show the American people that the promises in this bill will be kept," Bush said, two days after launching a personal rescue mission.
Bush supports setting aside all the fees and penalties in the bill solely for tougher security on the border and workplace enforcement, White House press secretary Tony Snow said earlier Thursday. The president on Monday morning will make the announcement of his backing for an amendment that two Republican senators have proposed to accomplish this end.
The provision would immediately divert $4.4 billion toward border security, with that amount to be paid back once the new fees are in place, Snow said.
With many questions unanswered, it was unclear how much of a concession the move amounts to for Bush.
The White House did not have an estimate of how much money the provision would generate yearly toward border security. It also could not say whether the money would be in addition to currently planned border security funding levels or just a way to dedicate funds to that purpose. And it wasn't clear what budget account would be drawn down to pay for the initial $4.4 billion.
The aim, Snow said, is "trying to get money to the border right away."

I say try to get as many shots as possible at your PCP. For TB and HIV tell him that you have been to India lately and want to make sure everything is okay. For other shots tell him that you are considering to apply for a medical/dental school and need to get vaccination records, which you don't have because everything was done in India. Take all those proof to immegration doctor, he will accept those records.
My wife in fact joined dental school last year. She needed only HIV.

Question...see below in bold
The issue is that my company lawyer said that there will be a need for a visa stamping done for the extension because of the Last action rule. The murthy forum reference is something I dug up via google.
Because the extension will be for a future date (March 1).
-- Question: Is this extension based on I-140 is different than the extension you get for the second 3 year out of 6 year? If not, then why I-94 can not be given date adding the extension of 3 year ?
Current visa stamp is till Feb 28, 2007. So if the officer gives a new I-94 with Feb 28, 2007 as the validity date, the attorneys claim that it will invalidate the approved extension due to a "Last Action Rule".
It is hard to trust these corporate lawyers.

I had my I140 approved too and had mentioned it in my application. They dont bother you. They however gave me 221g to verify student status and delayed my visa for two weeks. Interview was less than 2 mins and the vo said she had to verify student status thats it.
Please explain what is student status and 221g. You mean , if you are student of any intitute in US, while your I-140 is approved?

I am in a similar position and am going to wait till the end of the year for the AP. I am hoping to be able to go for the H1B stamping with the AP. So if there is any problem with the H1 I can atleast re-enter using the AP. Its a nice backup...
What if your AP does not come until July next year ? Are you planning to wait until then to travel ?

I think, if at all Minister is being planned to be met , it is better only few problems are presented to Minister.
PROBLEMS IN INDIA MAY DILUTE THE FOCUS. I think the following would be best to present ..
1) Retrogression.
2) Social Security Treaty.
Numbers justifying above data can do a lot good to explain the problem.
I think VISA retrogression problem can be addressed to the minister. That itself will give BIG relief to thousands of people from India.Make a special VISA Quota for India is another good option. Minister can suggest this option to the US Officials and Senators ! He is scheduled to meet some US senators in DC and NYC.
This is great opportunity for poeple living in Maryland and DC area. It is easy to go and meet him personally ! Think about it guys....

there remains a sliver of hope- its called the lame duck session when a lot of such measures are passed. post election, everyone feels "safer".
a marked up bill, ready for the house, could sneak through in the post election season. we have to keep trying!
Unfortunately almost nothing actually gets done in the lame duck!

Thanks Rajesh.
I was trying to find out if there are any other options to record my departure date and returning I-94 when I leave US by LAND.
Looks like the only option for people leaving by Land is to send the I-94 to "ACS - CBP SBU". In my case, I will have to send this along with details proving my stay in Canada after leaving US.

My lawyer says "If we file the I-140 based on the LC-PERM, we would interfile it into your pending AOS, so your AOS would be pending based on the pending I-140 (NOT the withdrawn LC Sub)."
Is it possible to interfile if the PD is not current? My pending LC SUB and the PERM LC PD, both are not current. Please confirm whether it is true or not. This will help me make my case.
sent PM please check it.

If both job (old and new) in same area, and new salary is "considerably" less than old salary, then it may be an issue. But it may be overcome, provided if you know the prevailing wage determination (not salary) of old job. Lets say if the PW for a level-3 engineer for your old job 50K at a particular county, and I-140 salary in your old job is 70K, and if you port to new job with new salary as 60K in same county, then it should not be an issue. Again, if USCIS does not buy this, you need to dispute. It needs extensive lawyering with DOL wage survey as a proof.
Ramba, what are different levels? example, I found something similar on flc data center website. How can I know which level I am in to?
Area Title: Town, State
OES/SOC Code: 15-1032
OES/SOC Title: Computer Software Engineers, Systems Software

Level 2 Wage: $32.92 hour - $71,347 year
Level 3 Wage: $37.37 hour - $78,603 year
Level 4 Wage: $41.81 hour - $85,838 year

No response yet from WillIBLucky. Does any other member want to organize the call for this chapter? pls. go ahead. Members need to take active role in the state chapter and keep it alive. It is easy to give ideas and question others but is difficult to actually work for something. I urge chapter members to communicate with each other and organize a call.

It's all about money my friends. Legal are already paying taxes. What they want is all these 12 million people to pay taxes too. Once these ppl come forward and apply for legal visa they will be backloged and will keep paying fees and taxes. After 20 years another cycle.
Nothing is going to happen for legal. All efforts r waste.
