Ok. One more red rep with the following comment
"too many generalizations... just because you didn't want to buy, doesn't mean it is not right for everyone"
People make their own purchasing decisions based on their comfort. On forums, you just need to read and follow your own gut.
Also, there is a talk that when US dollar currency weakens considerably from the current levels, foreigners may be interested in owning real estate in US.
Also, US being a tourist destination for many countries Hotel sector may start booming.
However, if foreigners want to purchase, US must make considerable changes to their immigration policies to invite.
There are way too many problems infront of Fed Chairman.
1) Asking people not to walk out of homes and pay up their loans
2) Making the wall street firms like Lehmen, bear sterns run their businesses as usual.
3) Contain the inflation so that long term interest rates are lowered.
4) Come out clean if the US policy is shifting towards Weak dollar or going back to string dollar policy. Either way US and world over have to face gyrations in near term.
There is blood on everybody's hands for the mess we are in.
1) Japan for too long provided the world with cheap loans (~1%).
This money not only found its way to corprate India but also into US
Housing markets.
2) Americans spent money much much more they earn or worthy off.
3) Globalization created another affect (Read Alan greenspan's 'economic conundrum' theory). Google it, you will find plenty of articles.
4) China for too long manipulated their currency and provided the world cheap goods.
5) Oil exporting countries didn't utilize the profits in developing their countries and economies. Instead they started buying aasets all over the world causing unsustainable price levels in asets.
6) Indian software industry far too long booked profits without developing/diversifying into enterprise strength products and remained fixated on their business models. Software sector is staring clueless and is unprepared for the fallout of outsourcing industry. Pink Slip culture is on the rise.
How do we come out of this financial mess in US?
There is no easy solution.
10,000 people buying homes will not help this economy. On contrary, 10,000 people not buying homes will help.

Thought I'd offer an alternate view on the AC21 letters. I switched jobs after my I-485 had been pending 180 days, and my attorneys advised me to NOT send in an AC21 letter. They said, "Chances are, you will not get an RFE, and if you do, you can send in the AC21 letter at that time. If you do send in an AC21 letter, you will definitely get an RFE". These attorneys had always given me excellent advice in the past, so I have not submitted an AC21 letter.

The broken system is causing a reverse brain rain, right? Well How about we:
1- Each one of us buys 10 bath tub stoppers (you know, the stoppers you use when taking a bath, to stop the water from going down the drain) and mail them to Congress, Media, USCIS, etc- With a letter "Please stop the self-inflicted U.S. Reverse Brain Drain, already 100,000 highly-skilled have left, stop the 10-year green card delays for LEGAL highly-skilled immigrants that is pushing them out of the country in frustration and lured by the boming economies of their home countries. Retain these highly-skilld immigrats that the U.S. needs while American universities train more Americans in the sciences, math and technology that the country does NOT currently have and desperately needs to retain U.S. global leadership and competitiveness"...or something like that
2-At the same time, we ALL send WHITE roses to Congress (Roses are now IV's trademark, we are known for them and the peace they mean, and roses should probably be on IV's logo too) Attach same note
THAT will send a strong message!!! (trust me)

Great Idea. You dha man.
We can also look at the possibility of mass drive towards bone marrow doner registration, Blood donation drive, Eye donation, etc.
Also possible is continue with Youtube videos. I think the reason for low response a) laziness b) doing alone may not be exciting and motivating enough.
Suggestion. We do the youtube videos in groups of three/four. It would be fun activity and will help to build bond amongst IV members.

Here is what you should do:
1. Print this memorandum
http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/2006,0913-aytes.pdf
2. Take it and go for infopass.
3. Insist that they follow the procedures outlined in the memo. Do not leave until they do what they have to do according to the memo. They have to provide you a receipt that they followed the procedures.
4. Get your EAD within a week or so after infopass.

sending flowers did work for us.
You mean to say sell US real estate for GC/citizenship? I don't see this going very far. I can see anti immigrants waiting for this one. Best is to lobby using aides of big corporations, developing relationship with lobbyists who already have connections, hiring lawyers, developing strong case, donations in election campaigns etc. All of this needs loads and loads of money. Are we ready to donate to IV and build strong lobbying group for our cause? That is the only way to change our current situation.
Sending flowers, sending pizzas, sending all these proposals will only fall on deaf years. Congress understands language of money to pass laws, Rest of the country/orgranizations understand language of laws/court.

Thank you very much for all the response. I waited for responses from different places so I could determnine if it is a Nationwide policy as what the Colorado was saying.
I am from Colorado and I think Colorado is one of the strickest states in the US whatever.
It looks like from responses that only Colorado has so far adhered to this new policy.
I have 4 friends who currently cannot drive because their licenses have expired and they are waiting for MVI's (Motor Vehicle Investigative Unit) letter. Until such letter is issued, you cannot renew your license (in Colorado). According to MVI Here, it will take to 5-7 days, but if there is a problem, it will take up to 9 weeks.
Really rediculous procedure and I agree with everyone.
Just in case anyone there is in the same predicament, please share your story and the resolution.

my labor has to be pending 365 days or have an 140 approved to extend. so if pp goes away for 140 then my only option to stay in status is EAD. Also I am not in IT so patni,tcs etc...is out of question.
If you had a approved 140, you'd get 3-year extensions. If it is pending, you could still get 1 year extension.
While I'm sure about this rule, you should check with the attorney.

Are you kidding me?
What does your lawyer say about it?
Does your lawyer know that your wife supports you?
If the person you committed the Violence on, is not ready to accept it, how are they even offering you battery?
If you did beat her, were there any witnesses? And do not respond to this question in positive.
There is definitely something missing here. You are either not saying the complete truth, OR your wife is not supporting you, OR you are suspecting that she will testify against you.
DA offered:
Keep on DV battery charge, no jail time, 52 weeks anger control class, 3 yr probation.

See we dont know what you wrote, so without that you might find people that find it offensive, simply because they have no idea what you just said.
It is like you going out with friends and one of them doesn not speak your language, so wouldnt you speak English to make sure he or she isnt left out and feels uncomfortable?
Plus if it gives people goosebumps and is a great piece of poetry share it all of us :-)

If you are single and are in a position not to get married b4 August 17th please think b4 applying for 485. It is of no use to you unless you want to switch jobs on EAD which is a HUGE RISK!!My guess is you are going to get married at some point of time(Barring guys who are already in their midlife crisis b4 marriage) and would apply for your wife's Adjustment of Status. Please apply 485 togather when the PD bcomes current again. Bear in mind that even if you apply now b4 marriage you have to maintain your H1-B status. It will only make it worse when one had already applied for I-485 coz you could only get 1 year extensions as opposed to 3 years when you have an approved I-140 and have not filed for 485. Don't get overzealous and apply now and regret later!!

i tend agree with you, most of our forum topics start sensibly and then meander on...
The very reason why we join this forum so that we can, as whole, say something that may influence the law makers of this country to change the existing laws so that our problem with GC will be resolve.
Alot of times the comments in this forum are completely irrelevant and very insulting to the Americans. And here, we are asking them to please change your laws so we could live happily in their county. And if they say no, that's their right.
I am as frustrated as anyone here and I know people from other countries including Australia, Philippines, UK and China who have been waiting for years as well.
If we could please make our comments "not country-centric", I am sure more people will join this forum.
I know several people are not participating in this forum anymore because they are turned off by these country-centric comments.
It hurts, but that's the truth.

I just did some research and there are both rubber and silicone stoppers! Of course, if we send stoppers it would be good if they are all of the silicone (valley) type, if not too expensive
