A US company is a US company, be it Microsoft, or Cap Gemini, or whatever. For all you know, you may be working with Oracle's consulting division. Are you considered direct employee for Oracle or from a consulting company?
I have friends from Microsoft and Oracle who just got approved after 7 years + in EB2. I also know people from Consulting companies who got approved in 4 years.
I do not think there is any logic or facts to support this argument.

My I-140 doesn't have any "valid until" date on it...I believe, I-140s are pretty much valid indefinitely as long as they are not revoked by the employer...

With some irony, I spent a chunk of time searching last night for associations in the states that are from my nationality background (don't hate me, I'm English). All I could find are associations regarding livestock (cows) and golf.... Gotta dig deeper!
In fact there is http://www.britsintheus.com
I was looking for some information about H1 extension and I had found it there...that was long time back....before I found rajiv khanna's site...

I think when Immigration asks for the proof of employment you have to provide a letter that some one is ready to Hire you if do not have that job offer you are pretty much done (485 will be rejected)
So its all about timing if you are asked to prove your future employment and if you dont have that letter that time your 485 will be rejected

There is no law against multiple companies processing H1B for the same candidate at the same time. In past I had 2 Job offeres and both companies were processing my H1-B at the same time. Eventually I joined one of them. I do not see any issue for you to go back to your Home country and get the visa stamped as long as you are working and getting paid as per your approved H1-B petition.
Also if you never landed up working for the company for which your H1B transfered got denied then there is no issue at all, but if you did then I am not sure about the ramifications.

That's what we need to do in these forums.
You see, I tried to follow the second link; it didn't work. I tried the first link. It took me to a web site that is totally disorganized and poorly built; I dont have time to navigate and see what you posted about.
After this second corrected post, I follow the link. It is NOT about the CIR and the logjam; it is an attempt to arrive at an agreement to have a working methodology to verify and check illegal immigrants.
Hence, my title: please read and post your opinion, instead of just posting thie links or the story.

Dear Immigration voice members,
We have made good progress in our membership base over the past 2 weeks. We are now more than 13,320 strong. Our members are our greatest asset and our grassroots efforts make us unique. It would be in the best interest of this community to use our energies by telling more people about this effort so that more members could join this effort.
During the past 2 weeks we had about 20 media leads due to the efforts of our members and the media drive. This has translated into about 10 media interviews that are mostly on a national scale. There are some more media interviews in the process and we hope to have them published soon. Let us continue this media drive with enthusiasm.
Our webfaxes, phone and email campaign has also been working. The response to it has not been as per our expectations yet. However even with limited participation we did hear comments about our campaign from some Senator offices. Hope more members take part in these campaigns. There have been some technical errors faced by few members this week. We have solved those iissues.We are also now going to pay more for a �Premium� service (3 times we pay now) so that the webfaxes can be sent smoothly without �backlogs� in the system.
Its been more than a week since we started our funding drive for the CIR bill in Senate. We want to go all out with all our might and resources to get our provisions in the new CIR bill. As members have already seen how much this bill hurts our interests and if we do not do something ourselves we do not have much support from outside. The H1B increase provision has much attention, support for various lobbying groups and opposition at the same time from various anti-immigrant organizations. However our provisions and cause require much needed attention and support in order for us to succeed. Our cause is just and few technical changes can very well fix the problems faced by 1.1 million high-skilled applicants waiting for their greencards. For most lawmaker high skilled immigration issues only meant increasing H-1B numbers. Most lawmakers are now aware of employment based green card issues and are aware or organized effort called Immigration Voice. We have been able to convince large technology and healthcare companies/groups to recognize that employment based green card delays is a massive issue. But this is not enough for our provisions to come on the floor and be passed. Tremendous investment in lobbying efforts is required in the current CIR that is a disastrous bill for our community.
There is a possibility that some of our provisions may get included in this CIR. Some of the amendments on Thomas already have some of our provisions along with H1B provisions. However the chance of those amendments passing is not certain.We are working hard to get something done. IV team is committed to explore every possibility and actively working towards that end. But please understand that it is not easy to get something done. There are hurdles we face due to the politics of the situation and intense lobbying of anti-immigrant organizations that are well funded. This is a hard reality. To get something done, it is of utmost importance that more members actively participate in this effort, contribute again and get new members to join and contribute to Immigration Voice. Each member visiting this forum needs to understand that it is your responsibility to actively participate in this effort because this is your effort, because this effort will solve problems that are yours and mine.
Due to the hard work of immigration voice and its members over the past 1.5 year, many lawmakers are now ready to listen and do the needful for us. We are also working with several like minded organizations and groups to help our community. But that is not enough to get our provisions passed with a majority vote. It can be because we have not yet done our part to the extent it is required to collectively petition lawmakers with our grievances. This is one more reason why more active participation and contribution is required.
The point is that Immigration Voice is doing everything that is possible. IV Core team member�s green card application is also pending and like other members, IV core team members are very passionate and motivated about solving the green card problems. We work hard during our regular work hours and on weekends, take vacations to travel on IV work and pay for the trip from our own pockets. We do this because we are also in this greencard mess like everyone else, and we feel responsible and commited to this effort. We all know that it is difficult to change things in Washington, especially when we are a small group. But we have experienced that it is possible that we can get our provisions passed. Immigration Voice needs more resources and this effort needs more active members. To achieve this, we need more resources in terms of contribution from all our members. (Note: Immigration Voice is Tax exempt under section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code, since Immigration Voice is not an organization as described in section 170(c) of the code, donors may not deduct contributions that have been made) Immigration Voice would appeal all new members to please contribute and of the members who have already contributed in the past to please consider contributing again.
With all our hard work over the past 1.5 year, we are well poised to make a difference and represent the high-skilled immigrant community in DC. Media also calls us for comments on any Immigration related news story. Other organizations and groups contact us for collaboration and to seek help. Many lawmaker offices now know us and our cause. And there is a lot that has happened since we started. Most of these things we are not able to disclose on the open forums. But please understand that we need more funds to continue this effort so that we could all see our provisions into law. Immigration Voice is not about one, five twenty of fifty of us. It is about all of us currently in the queue and those that are about to join the queue. Lobbying is very expensive and if we have hired the top lobbyists there is to help us, there are investments we need to make for it too. Now, if this is any indication of how far we have come, I assure all members that we can do it, together.
In the past 2 weeks we got contributions ranging mostly between $10 - $100 and few $200 from roughly 100 members. I�m sure we all can do much better than that. Such amount can at best support hosting this website, pay for webfaxes and buy few hours of lobbying time from the best lobbyists there is in this country. Lobbying is the most important part of our effort and it can make a difference for our provision. Getting an amendment from a Senator�s office on Thomas is not our aim. We need to work hard to get it on the floor and be voted by a majority. This is a big task and huge lobbying effort is required if we have to go all out to get something done in this CIR bill.
Please be assured that IV core team is doing whatever is possible with the limited resources. And regardless of what happens in the next few months, Immigration voice would urge all members and readers of these forums to please contribute to this effort. Because what IV core team will be able to achieve will ultimately depend on how much trust you put in this effort.
Your IV team

Widely known as payroll tax is actually FICA tax (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Insurance_Contributions_Act_tax) 6.2 % of federal and 1.5% of medicare...together coming close to 8%. I'm not aware of any state component above this 8%...
But do consider your desi employer needs to carry a liability insurance of 1 million, otherwise most established vendors and clients won't work with him...He needs to pay premium on that depending on how many consultant are working....
So practically, claim as they may, NO consultancy firm can pay you 90% of your billing and still do business profitably.... They are hiding something behind their numbers...
If you are getting 85% of the billing and your consultancy is paying your payroll taxes and you are paying your medical insurance premium, consider that as a very good deal... I personally could manage 80% of the billing while I was doing consulting...
I agree. 90% of the bill rate never includes the employer taxes portion.
It all adds up. It may not be profitable as one assumes. The relocation costs, medical insurance, unpaid vacation days, unpaid holidays..

Another group with help of IV, to suck the blood by sponsoring H1s...
Believe me , at least 80% of this so called enterpreneurs will end up like present H1/desi employers/blood sucking companies
Of course 20% will be real good with clean intentions.
I bet...As i saw so many people in the same manner.
My close friends got GC and now sucking people with H1s , after just registering LLC with state secretary by paying 100$ reg fees and filing few H1s with INS
Well let us assume this group has people in that 20% too..

sp99, who is your internet service provider? For about 8 channels, you are paying ~$50. Do they also have any regular US local channels included in this package? The reason I am asking this question is that they charge about $50 for a few indian channels + other regular HD channels, if you get the dish from them. I understand that the iptv is for folks like me that can not install dish in the building. I am just trying to compare the price. Also, could you tell us if you had to sign a contract too?
Appreciate your response.
Hello Folks,
I was also in the same dilemma 2 weeks back but now that i have DISH IPTV, i am very happy with the quality of the channels. I ordered Hindi Superpack, i was interested in Elite pack but it has $6 charge which becomes $40 for 4 channnels but add 4.99 and u get 8 channels...i was worried about buffering and quality of the programming but it is awesome..i watch it on my 50inch plasma..it is great..let me know if u have any more questions...

I am seriouly looking out for a job as currently on bench from last one month and my employer doesn't pay the bench salary. Currently I am on EAD with my GC sponsering employer. I would appreciate if any of you pls. reply this post. My question is,
If I joined a new employer using EAD-AC21 (as 11 month passed of my I-485) which is very small employer (currently have about 35 employees only), would it cause a problem in my GC process approval? I mean, do you think USCIS may create any RFC as I have join the very small employer, may ask any financial document to declare? Can you pls. tell me what are the potential problems my come in this situation?
Pls. help, your reply will be highly appreciable?
The Yates memorandum is very clear on this. It is not necessary for CIS to issue an Ability to pay RFE for the new employer. However, if they suspect fraud or some other problem, then they can always investigate. Having only 32 employees is obviously not a reason to start an investigation.
Short answer - No potential problems.

Good post.
I am not against donating (have done it myself) but do you guys really think they are giving out GCs to the donors?
Or is someone giving out the secret to a quicker GC in the donor forum?
Or is there the address of the shop selling GCs?
Whatever appears in RED color - supposedly for donors - to me seems to be a marketing trick to attract more donation (sadly, they had to resort to this) - but remember that if there is a big news that is relevant to us - it will be flashed everywhere, even in Indian newspapers!
Don't go begging access to the donor forum or start salivating at the thought of accessing it... just seems kinda childish to me.
Don't gimme reds for this, it was only worth 0.02 - not enough for donation!
Chill, Peace!

AC 21 allows you to change jobs 21 times. :)
come on, once you complete 180 days you are a free bird on EAD. Enjoy it. The only limitation is that you need to work on same or similar job and similar salary. everything else is sugar.
When you say same or similar profile, what does that mean? The same or similar according to what was mentioned on PERM?
