Among legal immigrants waiting, there is huge block of people who are in worst possible scenario..
The specific group I am referring to is, the ones which have Labor and I-140 application approved but priority dates are not current.
Given that there is huge backlog (thanks to July-2007), situation for these [...]
Retrogression - Sounds like some mathematical concept (from regression, may be..)…But those of us that are prisoners to the immigration craziness in the US know that its not. In fact, it doesn’t seem to reflect any logic. Whether it’s the July 2007 sudden change in cut-off dates, or the H1-B caps that closed in 1 and 2 days [...]

Hi,
Today I am writing because I feel very low and lost. I had tried coming up and working with representatives on some sort of arrangement to expedite Immigration to US. However, nothing is paning out right.
Maybe today I’d like to [...]
I haven’t posted on this blog in weeks now. Too busy with tons of things going on in my personal and professional lives I guess. Professionally, I took up a job in San Diego, CA. I am excited about the move. It was a difficult decision because I am going from being a generalist to a [...]
I’ve been trying to think of a list of the top 10 biggest issues that legal immigrants face today. There are hundreds of applications and each and every one of us has a different story. But many of us share the same kinds of worries at some point or the other. I am sure each [...]

I was just thinking of a way to help the US economy uplift itself by filling its coffers and helping States such as mine (MA) from economic turmoil.
I was hoping they would charge us immigrants a little more hire more people (creating jobs - adding taxes from the people) working on more I-140 and I-485 [...]
i write on behalf of my children who have witnessed the chaos that the sadly broken immigration service call the ‘Green card process’. The stark reality is that there is a continious barrage of hidden traps and pitfalls that hit average families trying to fulfill dreams and careers in this so called free democratic country.
