I have come across at least one-colleague in every client place who left U.S.A - after being here for more than 7 years. And they do have children, houses and handsome salaries. And I know of number of people who have plans to eventually go back. But it's just matter of time and money. If property prices were not crazy in India, I am sure more people would have left by now.
....
I thought people came here for economic reasons(mostly), now it looks like we cannot afford good property inn India and are not going back.

Thanks B3NKobe. I've been meaning to jump in on a battle here and this seemed like the perfect one to try (my first ever!). The image you picked was easy to work with... which was very nice.
I really wanted to do something with the big ugly grey button, but figured it might be considered more like a mod and not a skin. So I just left it.

I was seeing lot of posts in this forum about reverse brain drain, so I wanted to comeup with a question which would answer my question without doubt.
I wanted to see if all those who are in the GC queue and think that they are a very important for America and insist on that in their signature by saying "Help us stop reverse brain drain" are really meaning what they say.
I beleive if we are so much in demand we can get a job in another country and have similar quality of life or better. So only poeple who are confident of the reverse brain drain and America should stop it will not hesitate to vote "Yes" if they are so frustated with the GC wait times.
Once again thanks to everyone who so far particiapted in this poll and posted comments.
Some people have given me negative reps for this poll saying it is useless but never say why "they" think it is useless. I would appreciate if you can post your opinion with those negative reps. Offcourse postive reps can be without opinon :D

Hi Guys,
Considering that we have all spent enough time stuck in the same job for several years it makes sense to prepare for the time if/when we actually get green card.
So I was wondering if anyone here has weighed and compared the cost and benefit of PMP vs MBA. Any thoughts would be helpful.
Take Care

PMP can take you to Project Management, and with experience higher up in the sr management.
With MBA from a good school you can start at serious management level.
It doesn't have to be vs, you can do both.

greenlight: Thank you indeed to share such useful information with rest of us.
As your lawyer used the words "change of employer petition", it seems that one can use AP to travel and still after coming back he/she can file for either extension, amendment or transfer. This answers the main concern that I started this thread for.
Also, on other threads I read that its possible to file H1 amendement even if your H1 is still valid. This is one way to come back to H1 status and get a New I-94 card.
Some one also mentioned that if you have a valid I-797 extenstion approval notice and if you show that at POE to IO, he/she may issue an I-94 till expiry of I-797 (3 years) instead of AP (1 year).
I would appreciate input from others who have some knowledge or experience of above situations.
Niether many has tried this option (entering on AP and filing H1B transfer to different employer other than GC sponsers) nor USCIS has strong history of approving/dealing with these type of cases. After entering in AP, though one can very well contine the H1B with the same employer to whom any one work on H1B before leaving US. There is a memo for this type of situation. However, there is no specific memo to address this situation (Transfer). It is all depends on the individual adjucidator's logic. If they see your latest I-94 with parolee stamp, then they may deny (or issue a RFE )the H1B transfer, by the applying the the logic of one must be in the smae status to seek extension. If the deny/issue RFE, you can not counter act as there is no secific memo or policy by USCIS in this case.

I appeared for an interview on Jan 2nd. It took the consulate officers 16 days to call me and ask for original documents again. Darn PIMS verification! I resubmitted the documents on Jan 22nd through the drop box... and have been calling them daily to track the progress. They say they need 7 working days from the day the documents are received. I have already had to reschedule the flights once..and my employer is getting worried now. If I had known about the delays at Chennai post before, I wont have applied here. Chennai sux!!!

I opened an account with them few years back and had to experience the same crappy service. The funny thing is that they had two phone numbers one for new customers calling to ask them about their services and the other one from existing customers.
The phone number for the new customers was answered within minutes and the quality of customer service reps was good BUT if you would call the other number if you were an existing customer then you would have to wait for someone to answer the call for hours and the quality of their reps was pathetic. The best part was that if you call the phone number for new cust and tell them you are an existing cust and have an issue then they would tell you too call the other phone number as they do not have access to the info.
I guess right after my first transaction, I canceled the account. The only way we can teach these people a lesson is by not giving our business to them in the first place.

Precisely,
they ask me for monthly contributions and I ask them to hold something big, a rally or something first, as I was not July2007 filer. That's why I am stopping to come here now. To ask for contributions, IV must hold something big,
How about you do something big like start a rally or sit on hunger strike in DC. I and many others I know on H1B will support you. We are all just waiting for someone to do it because we cannot do it. We all just write good posts and are free riders. But if you are willing myself and my friends on H1B will support you. Go sit in DC on a hunger strike or something and we will all support you.

Raj, Thanks for the reply. I am still looking out for the bride which is the reason it may take about a year or so.. So no chance of civil ceremony in a months time.
I have few more questions..
1) What does it really mean by withdrawing the I-485 ? Does it mean you withdraw only the 485 application and can reapply (just 485) it later when you are ready (when its current) ? Or does it mean the full GC process is cancelled, which means you have to start with your labor again at later point of time?
2) What are the real benefits of applying now for I-485 in my scenario? If I get married after the 485 is filed, it sounds like I am forced to anyway maintain my H1B till I get my spouse on H4. Also to apply for my spouse�s 485, my PD must be current at the time of filing. If not, then again I am forced to maintain my H1B till the dates become current.
Just to summarize, it sounds like I have to anyway maintain my H1B till I apply for my spouse�s 485.
So far, does it sound correct ? If not, please correct me..
If the above is correct, why not I apply for 485 after I get married ? Is that a bad idea ? I know I could save about 6 months to an year (may be more in some cases) if I apply before the marriage, but then I am taking the risk of getting approved 485 before my marriage.
Any thoughts?
There are so many stages where you can apply the breaks. Like if you get your FP too soon..you can reschedule the date or even withdraw the I-485 application later. Other option is to convert to CP. There are so many options and talk to your attroney.
I feel you should file now, try to do civil ceremony done in india in 30-45 days so you are safe.

I know you are not threatening to leave. But eventually some one will. It always happens when one or other item is included or excluded from agenda.
Anyways, this isnt about looking weak or strong against anti-immigrants. That is really not the issue here.
Its about how much we can have in our list of items. There is only so much anyone can do. Forget about us, even bigger organizations have priorities in order. Immigration Voice also has to have a priority. We cannot talk to anyone about fixing the H4 issues before the issues of retrogression are talked about. And we cannot talk about ALL OF THEM because there is room for only so much to talk about. There is a limit on everything. Limit on how much funds we have, limit on how much political capital does our lobbyist spend on our organization with lawmakers, limit on how much leverage the lawmaker uses to sponsor an amendment for us. No one has unlimited capacity to get things achieved. So in that sense, H4 issues really cannot be on the list. And as far as "nothing is happening, let's get temporary relief and let's not fight for more numbers" idea is concerned, we are already doing that by trying to get 485 filing provision done in next few days as a temporary relief. Now tell me, how is that not tied to H4s. EVERY SINGLE ITEM on our goals benefits H4 spouses indirectly. Including the short term goals of IV.
Logic - Do not get disheartened!!!!! IV will thrive.. Quality in membership is better than quantity.
