That remains to be seen. Congress cannot act in a mere speculation that there will be spierce competition between EU and US on skilled labor. US still attracts a lot of foreign skills. Increasing the number is not always seen as a solution but streamlining is or efficiency in adjudication is.
Anothe problem is that US thought it is adding more into the work force everyyear by giving out immigrant visas (EB). This is wrong because most of the applicants are already in the workforce under H1B and their dependents. What EB visas do was to retain these foreign skills by giving them permanent residence status. Therefore, EB visas are there not to add into the workforce but to maintain the current workforce.
The real visas for adding into the workforce is the H1B, which is temporary and only 65,000 per year which in a week time was used up.

On Saturday morning, the Senate failed to advance the DREAM Act (H.R. 5281) on a vote of 55-41. Sixty votes were needed to move the bill forward procedurally and stop any filibuster. With that loss, the fight for the DREAM Act is over, at least for this Congress. Below is a summary of Greg Chen's report of this vote.
The vote tally in support of DREAM included three Republicans who crossed the aisle to join 50 Democrats and 2 Independents. Those three Rs were: Richard Lugar (IN) and Robert Bennett (UT) who had come out in support long ago and Lisa Murkowski (AK) who started signaling this week that she would vote �yes�. With their yes votes, DREAM maintained its status as a bi-partisan bill back nine years to when it was first introduced with seven Republican co-sponsors. Today, long-time DREAM champion Orrin Hatch (R-UT) failed even to show for the bill he originally sponsored in August 2001.
Unfortunately the gain of three Republicans today was not enough to make up the difference. Combined there are 58 Democrats and Independents in the Senate, and there are 42 Republicans. If all the Ds and Is voted in favor, only two Rs would have been needed to reach 60. But today 5 Democrats voted against DREAM: Baucus (MT); Hagan (NC); Nelson (NE); Pryor (AR); and Tester (MT). And one Democrat, newly elected Joe Manchin (WV) failed to show. To win on �cloture� 60 votes were needed no matter how many actually voted. Thus, a no-show counted as a �no� vote.
As the 111th Congress comes to its sputtering halt, at least on immigration, the question many are asking is whether there will be a real opportunity to bring up DREAM in the 112th. Looking forward, we face at least two enormous legislative challenges: First, the House will shift to Republican control with 242 Rs and 193 Ds. Last week the House passed DREAM on a 218-198 vote�you can bet your house we won�t muster a strong showing like that, let alone a majority, when the new session starts. Second, in the Senate, the Democrats will still have the majority but their margin of control will be 53-47 so getting the �yes� votes will also be harder in that chamber.
For many of us the source of continued inspiration has been to see all the DREAM activists walking the halls of the capitol and showing tremendous courage when they are the ones who have everything at risk. Let's keep a positive spirit for the future as the fight is not over yet.

A Blog reader called me the other day and wanted to know when his priority date will become current. His I-485 adjustment was filed in August 2007 when visas opened up for 30 days, and since that time retrogressed. The applicant is from India and like many others in his shoes is eager for answers. So how do visa numbers become available?
In order to approve an application for adjustment of status (I-485), there must be a visa number available in the particular category. This, in turn, depends upon the country of chargeability and the priority date of the case. Once the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has reviewed a particular I-485 application, a request is submitted to the DOS for a visa authorization. If the USCIS makes the request for a visa number to the DOS when the priority date of a particular case is current, and an immigrant visa number is available, the authorization is transmitted and the USCIS can approve the I-485 application. This is all tracked through the DOS Immigrant Visa Allocation Management System (IVAMS).
If an immigrant visa number for a particular individual is requested from the DOS by the USCIS, but none is available, the request is moved to the "pending" file with the DOS. Data from this pending file is used by the DOS to calculate the appropriate cutoff dates for the backlogged categories in the Visa Bulletin each month.
Cases placed in the pending demand category are processed as immigrant visa numbers become available. The DOS communicates with the USCIS regarding the A numbers of the cases for which visa numbers have been authorized. These cases are then processed to completion and green cards are then issued by the USCIS.
As you can see, this is a very complicated and streamlined process, with actual visa numbers tracked, issued, and assigned to particular green card cases as part of the approval process. Clients often do not understand why they have to wait, sometimes years for visa numbers to open, even after USCIS approvals. We hope that both agencies will find a better way to talk to each other and make the Immigrant visa process and much smoother one.

rajpatelemail,
U said it right, I dont know why IV admin/moderators keep allowing such abusive language in the IV forum.
IV forum is suppose to help legal immigrants dealing with different immigration related situations, instead now its turning into the forum where people started hatred.
IV admin please intervene and stop these kind of posting, which hurts IV's cause.

Your lawyer is correct and so you are fine. There is no requirement that 140 has to be complete to apply for 485 even in substitution cases. People just choose to do it that way as substitution is slightly risky.
However, as long as you have a solid case, there is nothing to worry.

I am not sure that you would be allowed to do finger printing at American consulate in India.

I think this thread is really good start. I think the inherent problem is not the fact that H1B is temporary and ppl want GC. Basic problem is ppl want the right to be able to work for who they want and they want the same for their spouses. This can be addressed by H1B reform also. But I think it will be an uphill battle because most businesses get captive employees by way of H1B visa and would be the real losers in case of a reform.

whatever I did here on this video - I want to dedicate it to my wife. She is doing her 2nd year residency and is carrying (5th month) - and has been putting up with me when I could not give her 100% attention.
My dear friends

We all come from different backgrounds, highly skilled, work hard and have a illustrious career, at the same time, we must also not forget that we can all stand up together, yes - we can do it.
Lets all March on September 18th at Washington DC and show all the anti immigrants and hate spreaders like Lou Dobbs, Ron Hira etc.. their dirty tricks won't work anymore.
Lets all cooperate - this is the time - JUST ONE DAY AT WASHINGTON DC.
EVERYONE MUST BE THERE

I have mis-placed my EAD. Normally I can just apply for another EAD. But, I will be travelling to India in Mid March on Advance Parole and I'm not sure if I'll get the EAD by then.
My question is, will they ask for EAD upon re-entry.
I am thinking of applying for EAD after coming back. Is there any special processing for applying for a lost EAD ?
Any advice is appreciated.
Use the same application procedure as though applying for a new EAD, but make sure you check the box where it says "replacement of lost EAD". Also, write a cover letter explaining that you need a replacement EAD. I had to go thru this just a couple of months ago and USCIS reissued the EAD within a month.

I have just received the following email:
*** DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS E-MAIL ***
The last processing action taken on your case
Receipt Number: SRCxxxxxxxxxx
Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production
On August 9, 2010 we mailed the document to the address we have on file. You should receive the new document within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.
Does this mean that I-140 was also approved? I'm looking online and it's says "Initial Review"... Actually this is the only one that have changed, all other documents for both me and my wife are still at the previous LUD!
P. S. This looks and sounds weird for me, especially that I have the biometrics appointment on 09/02/2010. I think it's a mistake... Please advise!
