    ABC News has an interesting piece that discusses the birth tourism controversy and quotes a statistic that actually comes from Lindsey Graham's office. According to the National Center of Health Statistics, just 7,760 mothers report that they live outside the US of more than 4,000,000 births each year. Keep in mind that some of these mothers are actually US citizens who reside abroad but want to have their children in the US. So we're really talking about less than .2% of all births as being this huge problem that suddenly justifies overturning the 14th Amendment.

    I guess these are the cases of cross-chargeability where the principal applicant is born in India whereas the spouce is born in a non-retrogressed country like UAE. Here is the forum which explains on cross chargeability:

    Now that all are current, and we know the many benefits of an EAD ( primary being spousal employment) what exactly are the no-nos to apply for 485?

    1. Even if you want to change jobs after 6 months, you gotta stick to the same position in the new company?
    2. Any restrictions on travel?
    3. Yearly EAD renewal can be a headache?

    Any more?

    P.S: Guys, I am as elated as any of you but just wanted some perspective before pushing my employer.

    Say, there seems to be some confusion over the which is the SKIL bill and which is the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act (CIRA).

    GovTrack lists the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act as S.2611, sponsored by Sen. Arlen Spector. This was the bill that the Senate passed on 05/25/06. OK easy enough.

    If I do a search for securing knowledge innovation in GovTack, S.2691 pops up, sponsor Sen. John Cornyn. OK all good.

    If I look up SKIL Bill on google though, immigration.about.com seems to think that the SKIL bill is S.2611. Possibly this one site is just confused?

    I have been denied US Student Visa thrice before. But that was about 10 years ago in 2001. I have only 2 stamps in my passport showing "application received" because third time was by mail and passport was not required to be sent.

    I have to apply for UK DATV visa as am travelling to europe with family via UK. No stayover in UK though.. just 5 hours wait each way on same terminal to change planes.

    In application for UK DATV visa, should I mention 2 refusals or all 3, since there are only 2 stamps of "application receipt" on passport? Can these refusals have any impact on my DATV visa? I have been living in the USA since and current have I485 pending with valid EAD and AP.

    Any suggestions or experiences would be helpful please.

    IV Core - any thoughts on if we should bring this up in DC rally?

    Diversity Lottery ends in FY08. As a baby step, to offset this why dont we ask these numbers - 50,000 to be added to EB visa quota?
    I'm sure most senators will be agreeable to this - getting 50K immigrants with skills(in the future) vs 50K immigrants only

    My company is offering my retention contract for 3 years. As I told them that my GC can take long and I haven't filed for I-485 to use AC-21, I will be in trouble if a loose my job. Based on that they are making a written promose that I will have a same job for the next 3 years with all benifits and the only reason I can loose my job is through a decipline action (bad performance, fight, harrasment, etc).

    I want to ask the attorney's and gurus if there is such a contract exist and does it have any value ?

    Members are encouraged to email their questions per the procedure outlined in http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1267 rather than posting them on the forums, leveraging the professional advice available from immigration attorney Ms. Sonal Mehta Verma

    As of 20 September 2006, we have received less than 10 nonfrivolous questions in preparation for the next call. This does not meet the critical mass of 20-25 questions for justifying a conference call.

    Please follow process listed above for us to consider your questions.

    Slave Labor Helped Build Capitol (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2007/11/07/national/w161841S52.DTL&hw=immigration&sn=014&sc=278) By SUZANNE GAMBOA | Associated Press Writer, November 7, 2007

    Tours, exhibits and commemorative plaques in the Capitol should recognize the contributions of slaves in constructing Congress' home, experts told a House committee Wednesday.

    Such citations would help encourage blacks to make a historical connection to the building, a congressional task force said.

    Sarah Jean Davidson, founder of the Association for the Preservation of North Little Rock, Ark., African American History, said blacks and others feel the Capitol and some historic buildings belong more to whites.

    "We can say our ancestors helped build the Capitol so when we look at it, it's not 'your building, the majority', it's our building," Davidson said.

    "It will be a connection not just for African-Americans, but for immigrants who come from all around the country. ... Once they start feeling connected, then we are one," she said.

    Congress created a task force to commemorate slaves' work on the Capitol. Panelists recommended that the history be included in guided tours, educational materials, exhibits, plaques and showcases in the Capitol Visitors Center.

    The recommendations were released at a hearing of the House Administration Committee.

    "We look back today not to open wounds, but to ensure that we tell the story of those slaves so their toil is never forgotten," said Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga. "We cannot allow our citizens to leave without an appreciation for the efforts of slaves who helped build our 'Temple of Freedom.'"

    Financial records of the District of Columbia show that hundreds of local residents received payments for the slaves' work, said William Allen, the architectural historian of the Architect of the Capitol's office.

    The ledger recorded the payments as "Negro hire," Allen said.

    Many worked in quarries where they extracted the stone for the building. Others provided carpentry skills. Some slaves were stationed in pits from where, with a partner above ground, they would use a whipsaw to saw logs rolled over the pit. Slave women and children were used to mold clay in kilns, Allen said.
