From Investing in America, Making Things Worse (http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB119449088264586132.html) By Sen. Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa) | Wall Street Journal, Nov 8, 2007
I'm startled to learn that The Wall Street Journal seriously believes that an investment in American students will make things worse for U.S. businesses ("The Grassley Visa Tax," editorial, Nov. 2).
Your editorial asserts that the number of foreign workers on H-1B visas is so minimal that we shouldn't care if Americans are in fact displaced. I challenge the Journal to wave their labor force figures in the face of one of the hi-tech workers who have had to train their own replacement who is an H-1B visa holder. That's a smack in the face to the American worker and hardly an issue to take lightly.
I am committed to an effort to include additional H-1B reforms and increase the visa supply along with an increased investment to educate Americans. But, I strongly disagree that the only solution is to increase our reliance on foreign workers by raising the annual cap. Reforms to the program must be a top priority. Big business cannot continue to ignore the home-grown American talent who should be getting at least a good portion of these jobs.
From page 9 of Driving jobs and Innovation Offshore (http://www.nfap.com/pdf/071206study.pdf) The impact of high-skill Immigration Restrictions on America, National Foundation for American Policy (NFAP) Policy Brief, Dec 2007
The National Foundation for American Policy sent a letter to Senator Grassley�s office requesting a list of the names of �hi-tech workers who have had to train their own replacement who is an H-1B visa holder.�
To date we have not received such a list from Senator Grassley�s office.

What are you smoking dude? You 100 people go back, 1000s more are in line to replace them. Get real..!!
Let us all have a rally to move back to our countries on 4July2008 to symbolically show that we want our Freedom and Independence and never return back.
If all the articles about reverse brain drain we are reading about is true they would do something to solve this GC situation. Otherwise the anti-immigrants will come to see us off while we depart this country and never to return back as H1B's trying to get GC's and live here. This will go into history, 30yrs from now and our grandchildren will read about it. And may be we will get some special pension at our home countries for returning back and helping it to do better.
Please take the poll to indicate if you would participate in this QUIT AMERICA MOVEMENT FOR OUR FREEDOM AND INDEPENDENCE

I don't give a damn who he is, or how strong he is. All I care is me and my family might get mugged by the poison he's spewing, and how to stop him in his tracks. That's enough of a motivation to do my best to stop him.
That's why I say it - You are the victim. You should care.
Did I make myself clear!
So you made the problem statement which every one around here knows. What are your action items for poor souls like me who do not know how to take on, a person with successful TV show , using a placard and a megaphone ? What would be your solution ?

Heyyy not allowed, you can't skin the screen/clickwheel.
Thats not how a skin works mate C:-)
--------------------------------------
And thus far for which one I want in the poll I am undecided as it is:
1 person likes Orasquare Pod better.
1 person likes Carbon Pod better.

Congrats alterego !
Are you both physicians ? (the J-1's)
Looking at your RD reminds me of a friend of mine who has a I-485 RD of Dec 2004, but he is in EB3. Unfortunately his NameCheck was not clear even in the July 2007 fiasco, the reason he is still not green !
He and his wife recently sold their house and everything else and left their jobs and moved back to India! Enjoying themselves there while their I-485 application papers turn yellow !
You paid 68K for legal and immigration fees... that is steeep man ! I wonder how...
bought a car to visit the attorney :D:D

Came to USA on H1B, paid for the H1B fees(at that time didn't know it was illegal to do so)
however after coming here , Paid for my own ticket and landed here on start of january 2011.
I am a little doubtful...if this was illegal.
Since you had no knowledge at the time that it was illegal.
Being a foreign national you may not be expected to know every law here.
How much did you pay? was it more than what the fee was?
Did the employer processes your visa or did they use the services of an attorney?
if you...then you have a case to sue the employer for scamming you in civil court...as he may have used this trick to eat your money knowing fully well what would happen to you once you landed here.
Talk to an attorney here before you leave.

US law offers student 1 year OPT to gain experience and find employment.
So you made use of this opportunity and you are asking others not to do what the law allows them to?...
fyi.. I am an EB2 I candidate and fyi� I did not port but I will not stand in the way of people wanting to get out of the clutches of those employers who act cheap.

I saw the poll in the morning and voted FOR making this a paid site, but going through the discussions and a little bit of soul searching (slow day at work :p) i am a bit wary about making it a paid site now.
As much as i would like to see the riff-raff (pardon the expression) go away, maybe we should be more inclusive then exclusive (?). Not everyone is an early adoptor, it took me a while to contribute as well, but i did eventually turn around and contributed the lil bit i could.
Thats just my take, and excuse the rather altruistic title of my post.

Found one more without good education.
Got to hand it to you man, your comments are Hilarious. You heard this .."Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me". You said USCIS is screwing you you by giving H1 and GC to these lesser degree fellas, and shame on them for doing this, yet you stand in line to get screwed by USCIS, everyday, again and again. And you are standing in line for what? the past 10 yrs only to get screwed everyday. I don't understand the desperation. Anyway, hope you get your GC soon. I don't know which is more fun for you, getting GC or standing in the line.

Hi AK27,
Can i know why you were called for personal interview. Is your I-485 Based on future Employment or did u have an Arrest record. If You have a record it might take a while to get your back ground check.

If you are not counted against cap, that is equivalent to visa available = PD current.
I interpret SKILL as follows for US MS.
1. You wait for your PD to become current.
2. When your PD becomes current, you are not counted against the cap.
How can we verify that my understanding of step 1 is incorrect? Thanks.
