I was wondering if there is any documentation that we can show the employers to dissuade them from revoking I-140 when leaving the petitioning company...
I have started a thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=23116) so that the documentation does not get buried in other other threads... Please reply if you have any links/info.
Thanks in advance!

Those who do talk and blame in the anonymity of the web andnever do anything and keep hiding behind their closets expecting sky to fall are the one who "don't wear clothes"
Chandu, you made me laugh (in a fun way, not in the making fun of you way). Hiding is done inside the closet, not behind it. Maybe lack of clothes is explainable because one is "behind" the closet :)
On a serious note though, You provided so many ways that money is being raised by running marathons, funding drives etc etc...but come on, where on this website or anywhere else is it mentioned how this money is being spent??
I have absolutely no right to ask that question because i have never contributed money. But when i am told that I dont have access to this thread or that thread because I am not a donor...I do have the right to question if this organization actually represents all immigrants or just the donors?? If the motto of IV becomes "Change for fairness and justice (For Donors Only)" then it would make a lot more sense to me. But as long as IV keeps on harping that they represent the plight of legal immigrants (which I am) then I do have the right to ask the question ..."What exactly has IV done?"
Asking the question is never the problem, it may make people uncomfortable but I want people (like yourself) who are contributing to at least ask IV before ranting on people like me (who dont contribute) to support the cause...Supporting the cause is NOT equal to giving IV money. The republicans already tried something similar ..."If you are anti-war, you dont support the troops"..That was fallacious and so are all the personal attacks on the "freeloaders" (like myself ofcourse).

Some people advise to wait and watch and some people ask to do something else. I would like to say one thing and it is purely my perspective. People who are waiting inline for 8-10years does not know when they will be getting their GC in hand. May be in next four to five years. By that time on average their age will be around 35-45.
Do you want to wait 4-5 years and do the job which you were doing 10years back?
Did you had any vision for your career when you started your GC and life?
Do you have the same vision now for your career and life?
Did you feel you and your family have sacrified enough in your personel life for this stupid GC?
IF YOU SAY I HAVE DECIDED TO GO BACK TO MY HOME COUNTRY:
Do you think you will get a managerial job if you go back to india at the age of 40 when you could see guys @30 doing that job with ease and with better experience?
Do you think becos of 10+years of expereince in programming field, indian companies will recruit you for managerial job?
Are you willing to work in India as a programmer with 10+ years of US exp under a 25-30 year old team lead or PM ?
If you say YES , YES , YES for all the above, do you think any indian company will recruit a programmer at the age of 40? forget about the salary you are going to ask for your exp which they will never accept.
So at the end if you wait long enough for GC, then it is better to wait here until you get it. At least you can save your life though you have to start your career from -10years. If you quit and decide to go back to your homecountry, your life is going to be tough.
Options for guys waiting for 8-10years for LC:
1. Try to get PMI Certification, CISA certificaiton.
2. Try to get TOEFL, GMAT scores and keep it ready.
3. Try to get in contacts with most of your friends and manpower agencies in India.
4. If you file for your 485 in next one or one and half years, then proeceed with MBA plans(parttime or full time or executive MBA) in top 25-30 business school.
5. Your waiting will yeild fruit in this country only with MBA as in next 10 years, US will need more managers than programmers to manager all their outsourced projects.
6. If you do not have such vision and you are happy with what you are doing now and if your job is secured for next 100years and if you feel that you will be happy in future by doing the same job and OK with other kids going up the ladder stepping on you and if you are ok reporting to them and listening to them, getting bashed by them etc etc, you can very well wait for next 100 years hoping to get GC one day.
I am not talking about one guy in one corner living beautiful life.
I am not talking about guys who are lucky on everthing to get on time including GC.
I am talking about majority of the people and general human nature, people who came to US with a vision for their career and life. People who have had and has a spark in their eyes.

Thank you all very much. Truly appreciate for providing all the necessary web links. Definitely I'd take the extra effort to complain to the Gov. of India and also start knocking on the doors.
Thanks to you all once again.
By the way, I was referring to Embassy of India, Washington DC.

No, it isn't the culture thing but it is the Amway/Quixtar thing. If one says hello or hi and has a smile on their face, 9 out of 10 times it isn't the person trying to be friendly but for a reason...The great pyramid scheme!

What end result you think would be?
There are several benefits to media coverage.
You create awareness and build alliances.
You give the other party (in this case congress) an opportunity to correct the problem.
You get reporters to do additional investigate work that may help you build a case (This has already happened).
You have an opportunity to correct public misconceptions, such as that all ITIN filers are illegal aliens, and thereby reduce the chance that the public will support such action in the future.

I went through layoff and got the same response from my lawyer. The day you are not working, you are technically out of status. But I found a job in few weeks the gap between the h1b transfer is May 26th to July 1st. It was technically more than a month.
But these are done on a case to case basis, at times based on your good standing, and skills.
So though I was given 2 weeks pay in lieu of notice (as I was fired without notice), all my accrued vacation (2 weeeks) and 2 months of severance pay, lawyer told me I cannot count that as period of extended pay after layoff. So, I definitely walked a tight rope here.

Exactly the point that leads me to believe this:
ARE THEY SENDING EVERYTHING TO THE OLD LAWYER???
If they never updated the lawyer info....(AC21 papers being lost is not unusual at all, it happens commonly, as there is no set form for it, mail room does not know what to do with it and so it gets misplaced). However, even if they did not have AC21 info, they would have sent an RFE or at least NOID. All these could be LOST if they went to OLD attorney.
So Infopass is a good idea. To at least get this info and also to get the actual denial notice which may have to to the old attorney as well (to see on what grounds they denied it so you can file MTR accordingly).
Of course, a good attorney is a must.
All in all, I think, it should be ok at the end of the day (just a painful waiting period full of uncertainty) unless they revoked it based on some misrepresentation.
Good Luck.
I tried to get the denial reason but InfoPass doesn't seem to have that information or doesn't wanted to provide me because it;s denied on 12th they wanted me to wait for 2-3 days more for denial notice.

Shows you the general herd mentality on this forum. As long as everyone is thinking the same way, everything is great. If you differ, everyone will call for a ban on you. There are lemmings everywhere. Unfortunately, I had to come to this forum for news. I have never seen such a bunch of dimwitted people at one place...
I generally really like this place but for the past week I have had about 5 moments where I've sat at my computer with complete disbelief at seeing people get banned or yelled at in mass just for being pessimistic or for not agreeing with others' opinions. You'd think it'd be due to cursing, or anti immigrant feelings, or constant spamming/waste of posts, etc, but no, all you have to do is disagree with people. Now who's this guy who inspired the flower movement and what was he about?? right.

My understanding was that once the i-140 is approved then one can change employers. Some kind of portability??!! I dont think u need to start a new once the i-140 is appoved but you can find an employer with SIMILAR job position.
Well in my case the i-140 is still pending.... and i dont have my employer anymore.
Where did you get that idea? You can only change employer if you filed both I-140 and I-485. And I-485 should be pending for more than 6 months.
And what do you mean you don't have your employer? You were laid-off? or did you resign?

Getting rid of semilar\same job requirement is going to be as easy or as difficult as getting prefiling AOS.
Getting rid of same\semilar job is not semilar to getting to green card. If you are a software person then you can put a restriction that you have to work in a software related job, in the same way if you a civil engineer then you should work in the civil engineering field. But the way USCIS does same\semilar job is job code match, responsibilities match etc etc etc, the problem with this is it is a very grey area, it is almost like doing labor all over again. It has not become that bad yet but it will sooner or later, how many H1b rfe\denials did you know in the last 2 years, I bet there are more H1 denials in the last 2 months than the whole of last 4 years.
I understand you are not being selfish but why would anybody want to use EAD instead of H1 other than for getting rid of visa stamping purposes. The overwhelming majority of people are going to use EAD to switch jobs because of layoff . When people are transfering H1b because of layoffs they are getting rfe\denial notices, when you move from H1b to EAD because of layoff USCIS might hit you with the same\semilar job rfe (when you file ac21, when previous employer revokes H1 or I140), that is my point.
What I am saying is bring in protection to AOS by
-removing the same or semilar job requirement in AC21
Its not that easy to make this adjustment. If you take out this clause a person can work any where and this is more like a green card. For example a software person can even work in a gas station. I am afraid, this cannot be done as easy as you think.--- Again, I am not saying that it should not be done; all I am saying is let us keep this as a separate item

I realized the clout that IV has grown when we got the Visa Bulletin reversal. This clout will only get stronger as Logiclife has explained. If you relate to politics in your own countries, the bigger the crowd at a politicians meeting; the bigger his clout. They can hire people to lobby for them and follow them around as a show of strength. Similarly in US if more organizations support a politician and if they can lobby independently for his agenda, it is a show of strength for him.
If you have observed election campaigns, you will see that all the ads are "Paid for" by some third party claiming no direct relation to the politician. This is the support structure in US and now after the rally IV is an organization which can provide such support as a return favor to our agenda being pushed ahead.
For the guys who sat on the sidelines and snickered at us, you have to realize we are the "brightest and the best" and we will not do something for the sake of doing it unless we know what the effects of such actions will be. We always see the big picture so just join us and work for this cause which is critical to all of us.

Agree 100%. Just to add under the section 'if McSame wins' -
Sen. McCain, a "Maverick" whatever that means, is a close friend to Sen. Lindsey Graham of SC. During the 2007 CIR debate, in the context of skilled immigration, Sen. Lindsey Graham commented - we do not want anymore Indian PHDs coming into US. Sen. Graham was talking about high-skilled immigration in general. Though Mccain supposedly makes his own decisions, the future looks bleak with either candidates.
I think many people on this and other forums would love to see President Obama due to opposition to war and slogan of change, to some extent - myself included. But most of us do not fully know the after-effects on this community. Get ready to feel the wrath of Sen. Durbin. It will get real nasty.
if Obama wins:
+ its better for the world in general. The last thing we want is more of GWB policies destroying both America's economy, civil rights, and respect in the world.
- his best friend Durbin will again pick up the stick and start beating up on H1 sponsoring. EB will also get run over by the same bus.
- FB immigration will be put in preference over EB, we are screwed.
if McSame wins:
+ my taxes remain low
- CIR is back. 13 millions illegals will get in line. points based system for EB immigration and we are all screwed again.
- if McCain does not live through his presidency, the biggest country and economy in the world, with the largest number of nuclear weapons, the largest amount of military spending... the rome of our time, with nearly unlimited power and presence around teh world, will be run by a mayor of a small town. Rember her trying to get her brother-in-law police officer fired during her sisters divorce? And when the administrator refused her requests, he fired him? Remember how she emails people off-the-record from her Yahoo account? Remember how she CC's her husband on official emails? Do you want someone that stupid, who already abused whatever little powers a mayor and governor has, to be the commander-in-chief of the united states armed forces?
Either way immigration-wise we are screwed. I think for the sake of the rest of the world we must wish that this time McCain loses this election. He has made a very stupid VP choice.

I never understood until this point how come a letter requesting to port job using AC 21 in most cases never reach the file, whereas the letter requesting to revoke I 140 from employers are getting processed in 99% of the case. maybe its an excuse to get rid of some of the backlog :confused::confused:
Good question. They take action immediatly on I-140. If you send any document releated to 485, they may be using as a tissue paper. I sent a letter regarding my address change, they never took the action. Later I found that thro phone call, and changed the address over the phone. So, AC21 paper also not exemption. Perhaps, they may take action if send a another check.
