My law school roommate and long time friend Henry Olsen is the vice president of the conservative think tank the American Enterprise Institute. He's written an essay for the National Review entitled "The Way of the Whigs" and it talks about the danger the GOP faces in terms of long term survival. This might seem strange given the recent polling problems the Democrats have experienced, but Henry writes that there are long term forces at work that Republicans need to heed. One is the growing Hispanic electorate which has shifted decidedly toward the Democrats over the last two election cycles....

My Status: US Citizenship
I'm planning to file GC for my parents (along with adjustment of status) when they visit me in a couple of months.
I'd a couple of questions regarding the birth certificate requirement.
They were born in Undivided India (before Aug 1947) and their place of birth is now in Pakistan. They migrated to India and have lived in a suburb of Mumbai most of their lives.
- I am planning to get affidavit of birth proving their place and DOB. Does this affidavit need to be on a Indian Govt issued stamp paper to make it look official?
- How do I get around Non availability or No record of the birth certificate requirement as their place of birth is in Pakistan. Can the municipal authorities of Mumbai issue this document?
Can somebody please help by sharing their experience if they are/were in a similar situation.

I have a approved I-140 with company A. It is a substitute labor.
I am getting laid off end of the month and I have a new offer from company B.
Can I port priority date of this I-140 to new company B? Does porting work for substitute labor also?
Thanks

A lot of people influenced my decision to become an immigration lawyer nearly two decades ago, but one person that certainly deserves mention is Judge Diane Wood. I first took her international trade law class at the University of Chicago and it turned out to be my best grade in law school. I then did an independent study with Professor Wood and wrote about the integration of the European legal profession, a topic that introduced me to the subject of employment immigration law. Five years after I graduated U of C, Professor Wood was appointed by President Clinton to serve...

According to CNN, America could be facing a nursing shortage that will worsen exponentially as the population grows older. The problem: Baby boomers are getting older and will require more care than ever, taxing an already strained nursing system.
Barry Pactor, international director of global health care for consulting company HCL International, agrees that more nurses should be trained within the U.S. system. But as a short term solution for this "huge shortage," he said the U.S. government should loosen immigration restrictions on foreign health care workers. "I don't see this as foreign nurses taking American jobs, because these are vacancies that already exist and cannot be [filled] by nurses currently in training," he said. "We'd be filling in the gaps until the training can catch up with the demand."

Yes something basic seems to be missing in our immigrant community. I want to repeat these are just 6 users who are very vocal and influencing thousands of people.
Sorry to say this, but it appears our worst enemies seem to be fellow immigrants, not anti-immigrants.
All I can say is someone has to be criminally negative minded, to oppose a campaign where money is not even being solicited. This culture of hate has to go and has no place in the USA.
This campaign along with the DREAM campaign was also supported by Murthy forum.
Murthy is one of the top immigration lawyers. It is a moderated forum, and the lawyers are personally aware of the content. They have supported us on previous Advocacy days.
As far as the question about law, I am no lawyer and will defer to admins. Core is in touch with many lawyers and I can assure you, they will pick up an action item, only if it has a very good chance of success.
Also Greg Syskind, one of the best lawyers in the country is on our advisory board, and core talks to USCIS, law makers regularly. So to claim this is not legally possible is just absurd.
On our home page we have the best minds on immigration listed, in our advisory board.
So you have all the above lawyers, lobbyists, core who are supporting this and 6 people with EAD think its not possible?
.
I don't care them but they are influencing others to believe in them.
I believe same. Those minds are not only selfish but they are really really cruel, cunning and they don't deserve to be part of american dream.. All they care is their green card..rest of eligible people who are waiting to file 485 can have unknown waiting time for their chance of filing 485 and can live in the state of limbo.
Hope there are no issues legally for this to see as admin fix as you already mentioned that Murthy and Greg are aware of this initiative.

My H1 is expiring Jan'2011 with company A and company A has not filed my labor yet due to economic slow down.
As an employee of A, I have been working hard about 10-12 hrs day for last 3 years, and now they are saying they cannot file my labor.
Since, I'm not sure, if they will file my labor, I applied for h1 transfer in aug 2008 to company B but have not started working to company B.
I'm still working for company A, now that company B is willing to file my labor & 140 asap.
Now, If I move to company B and start working, what would be the chances of getting my labor approved through company B, I have been working here in US for last 5 years with great job history and tax history.

Hi
I'm self filing my EAD renewal and needed help filling out form I-765.
Question 11: Dates of prior EAD.
Do they expect the dates of all previous EAD applications or just the last one?
Question 12: Date of Last Entry into the U.S.
Question 13: Place of Last Entry into the U.S.
I recently went on a short trip to Canada and I didn't receive a new I-94 on my entry back by road via Buffalo,NY. Prior to that, I entered the US on H1B via SFO.
How should I answer this one? SFO or Buffalo,NY?
I live in California. Where do I mail the I-765 application?
Thanks!

From Matthew Oh's website, sounds like labor sub will be history from next week.
What are people's guesses on how many of the BEC labor certifications will be rendered effectively useless because of this?
Also, does this mean it will be more straightforward to port PD after I140 approval (because the old employer has no benefit to revoking I140 anymore?)?

In one of the threads Pappu suggested a very nice idea.
Everyone with difficult stories due to unfair immigration policies should make a youtube video and post a link here. Spoken stories will have much better effect.
Thank you. This is a good idea. Please lead this effort. You can detail this out, answer questions and help if someone wants to know how to make one.
Once we have lot of videos, they can be sent to media networks and reporters.
