Very interesting:
They say that they will run Master's cap first, then put the leftovers into regular cap lottery pool. But it would be better for master's degree holders if they did it the other way around!
We know the master's odds are better than general pool odds. Maybe about 50% vs. 25% this year.
Think through the math! It would be more advantageous for Master's degree holders to go through the general lottery first, and only if they lose in general be put into master's lottery. Maybe there would be less than 20,000 general lottery losers with advanced degree, then there would be no need for another lottery, they would automatically get the 20,000 that's allocated for them.
Is USCIS trying to screw Master's holders on purpose, or are they just bad at math and screwed them due to ignorance?
The spirit of the whole master's cap law is to give master's holders an advantage. USCIS had a choice here of giving a small advantage (master's lottery first, then general) or big advantage (general lottery first, then master's) and they chose the smaller advantage.
The whole fact that we're here thinking about the odds, just like horsebetting, is of course ludicrous in itself.
Good luck to everyone in the lottery.

Folks,
I agree 100% with the previous post person.
I myself am a PMP. It is very easy to do one, you need to have the right project mgmt experience (PMI may audit it) and you need to prepare for few months and you can clear it easily.
But the question is, more than the exam it is the practical experience, sometimes this job can be so frustrating and you feel like a sandwich being hit on both sides.
If you already have a PM experience and you dont have the certification, definetly go for it, it is worth the spending.
Again remember it expires in 3 yrs , you got to keep renewing your PDUs to stay current... its not like MCSD or MCAD which is for life long...

You dont need to knock anyones door - I'll proactively go to anyone who used a "Labor Subs" and call them a Cheat because they have cheated someone else's Property and Dream.
Its gone but i'm personally a victim of that - My 1st Labor was traded in the Market for certain US dollars... The legislation was not there - otherwise i did have sufficient Proof and resources to take care of that cheat company.
How could you talk in support of a evil legacy system ? :mad:
No one knocked your door and and asked your personal opinion ....and no one cares for what you care ...
Its all these desi companies who misused LC ...... Thereare otherbig companie who just follow rules and do according to it. Being a senior member here, this is not expected of you .....

What makes you this guys advocate?
A lot of us can do and will do many things. Your argument does not stand ground. I dont ahave anything against this guy. I have a problem with the system that permits this activity. Because its not fair. By the way I seriously doubt this happens to people in my situation. This is typical of "desi consultant companies". So once again pontiff i dont have a grudge against this guy but the system that allows this to take place.

Do you think this company has boss, HR, etc? It could be one man show and he wants suck this guy's blood.
Unfornunately most of the guys who can not get a job in US and did hard jobs initially some how hot gcs and became (desi)employers. Also unfortunate that lawyer guy is joined with your employer and trying loot you.
It has to be anyone of a rank signing the letter saying that you work in this position for this salary, someone like your boss, human resources, whoever is nice enough to sign it, they are not really strict on this one, they are on the I-140. Do you have that approved?

What is the white man's (Europeans and others) visa to America then? I don't see any other ways people can come here on the same conditions as the H-1B visa.
Lol, it happens to be no visa!Most Europeans don't need a visa to get in this country and if they want to, they just stay back.....since they are are the same color as the majority they do not caste doubts or suspicions as much as the 'brown man' does....I don't think the majority of European immigrants to America came with any papers whatsoever......and lets not forget that before '65 race-based immigration was the policy.

Let me correct it.. I read somewhere that it is considered not a major problem if some one is out of status for less than 180 days cumulatively.
Sorry you answer is not clear to me. You mean I was out of status and I will have problem at 485 stage?

The Bill has gone too far from what it means.Why didn't the congressman ask the American employers the same questions they asked other big companies.The H1 and L1 classifications allows them for gouging but the bill is not the answer for it.They are trying to show the stats that supports their insane bill.

I agree with you completely; I will never travel through frankfurt or any german airport again or any german airline. I think they see indians are sticklers for procedure/afraid lets milk them for some visa money. All we will be doing is get off one airline and switch to other one. Probably that takes like 2 hours within the terminal and for that you have to fill in a paper work, money and spend more time then that gab. This is just out right harrassment. Let them rot in hell :mad:.
Transit visa is the biggest fraud ever on the face of us. As a principle I NEVER traveled on Transit visa after it came in to existence.
It's absolutely ridiculous to charge $$ for a visa where all you are going to do is take a dump in their airport.. :mad::mad::mad:
Indians should not patronize airlines demanding transit visa. atleast people who need transit visa should not fly..

I travelled to India in December via Germany. I don't have a valid visa on my passport, but they allowed me to travel to India.
While coming back we have a valid US visa. I checked at Lufthansa counters in IAD airport and they said the transit visa is not required for immediate international flights.

What do you mean? My father was an engineer and he started his Bachelor of law at age 58 in 1996 in India, after retirement. regular college, which only 10% pass out off.
I'm only comparing the economy and education not the culture.
Well that was funny, I'm mostly an atheist.
The first thing you should understand are most of these conversions are started by foreign organizations and their followers, and conversions by force or by paying money should be stopped immediately.
Well some general knowledge for you - I haven't heard of native roman catholics converting anyone. They are very conservative and it is very difficult religion to follow - numbers don't matter.
What propaganda is this? The american overseas pursuits are not related to religion.
There are some rogue organizations here, who run this as a business, with profit/loss, and they need to be monitored in India. They surely have branches there too.
Sorry guy, I do not debate with atheists sorry, because they are the most unfaithful and false creatures in this world becasue they deny themselves virtually. so thanks for the blah blahs.

Hey guys!
I just opened this thread casually and found so many helpful messages to a single problem. I am so glad to know that there are so many good people around to help their fellow beings. I sincerely appreciate each and everyone who took time to help in someway.
We often complain for petty things, I guess we should equally encourage the good deeds of other people.
Keep up the good work.

The standard stuff line, I'd say is a frequent sign on foul intent.
If there is foul intent then "training" would likely mean the salaries of all your senior colleagues in the employers' opinion. At least he would claim some stupid figure.
If it really is an honest employer, he would be willing to modify or clarify the contract to identify the meaning of training as "elective external courses paid for by employer and run by external training companies or schools, at request of employee, for example MBA course.". Now that would be more standard, for example, if employer pays for your MBA course and you leave soon after completing it, then employers do often ask for the course fees back. However, if you receive highly customized (and non portable) training because you need it for your job that should not be included, and to try to require it is just foul intent.
You could even write your definition of "training" on the contract before signing it.
If you need non proprietary training to do the job you are applying for, it sounds like abuse of H visa, since applicant is meant to be qualified.
If there is foul intent then you don't want to be working for him anyway.
Maybe try speaking to any other employees on H or L visa by way of references.

Yes, this issue is on IV's agenda and we will not rest till we fix it.
On 7th July, when Fightnow, had organized a small rally in San Jose.
Another IV member had asked me a similar question, Karthik are you reading this? Yes, we care, was my answer then and now.
Hello GSC999 ( I forgot your real name :-) ) .
It was good to see and meet you at the rally .I was wondering if IV or its leadership have any updates on, when any bill ( if any) will be unveiled in the house . The end of the year is fast approaching and although we hear every other day that Nancy Pelosi or Zoe Loefgren is going to unveil something , nothing seems to happen . Only letters are flying back and forth each day from Governers and Tech industry representatives , but there seems to be no action . I prefectly agree with the fact that people are getting a bit overly impatient on the issues here , but I who has been patiently waiting and waiting and working with the state chapters just see a lull and silence on the immigration front ( Skilled and Unskilled ) . No one wants to talk about it or do anything about it on the Hill.Please prove me wrong here , I WANT TO BE WRONG !!!
