Ezra Klein - Should states set their own immigration quotas? (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/ezra-klein/2010/11/should_states_set_their_own_im.html)
The Kauffman Foundation has a report out ranking the "new economy" states. Their methodology "measures the extent to which state economies are knowledge-based, globalized, entrepreneurial, IT-driven and innovation-based � in other words, to what degree state economies� structures and operations match the ideal structure of the New Economy." The winners? Massachusetts, Washington, Maryland, New Jersey and Connecticut. The laggards? Mississippi, West Virginia, Arkansas, Alabama and Wyoming.
I never really know what to make of reports like this, but one of the metrics is "immigration of knowledge workers," which really isn't under the control of individual states. Visa quotas are set by the federal government. But why? There are a lot of places where a national solution really is best, but that seems particularly untrue in immigration. Detroit, for instance, has a lot of empty houses, a lot of shuttered factories, and a lot of emigration. They could probably use a bunch of immigrants to occupy homes, buy things, and start businesses. Similarly, California has had a pretty good experience with letting highly skilled immigrants start tech firms in the Northern part of the state. Maybe they'd like to let even more of them in to do it. These graphs explain the potential appeal (click for a larger version):

There are obvious difficulties with having a California visa that doesn't work in Oregon. But we have limited visas now -- think student visas, or temporary agricultural workers -- and we seem to get by all right. Another concern would be that certain states would be overtaken by xenophobia and basically shut off immigration, though Arizona suggests that you can do quite a lot to make immigrants miserable even without changing the number of available visas, and my hunch is that any state that went too far in this direction would face a tremendous outcry from its business community.

I have been trying to get visa appointment dates for my parents at Delhi consulate but no luck. Dates for Hindi are even more difficult to get. Are there any specific days/dates/times when one should try? Any input is appreciated.

I have permanant opprtunity with one organization which wants me to work on EAD. My situation is like this
my EAD is expiring on XX/XX/2010. The new compnay wants me to join on YY/YY/2010. My questions are
1. IF 15 after joining new Compnay, I apply for EAD renewal and before filing for AC21,Will it create a problem. Since I can only file EAD renewal 4 month before expiration date I need to do it some where in april.
2. In case my Old employer revoke 140 before I file EAD renewl and AC21 will it create a problem?

Currently I am working for Company 'C' and my green card file was filed in Company 'D' in Year 2004.Labour and I140 approved and I485 filed and pending as part of Green card processing with Company 'D'(EB-3 category).I have never worked for Company 'D'. Not even spent single day at Company D. Now, Company D is suffering from 2008-2009 worst recessions and about to get close in one month. They already informed me. What are the options to get green card with as less risk as possible?
Please accept my appreciation and thank you in advance for your time that you will spent to help me on this issue.

I like the colors, and the silhouetted person. Personally, I think cropping out a lot of the top (roughly the upper 1/2 of the picture) would make it more interesting. This would also give it a panorama-like appearance.

Hi All
I am on a B1 - Visa visited 4 times to USA.But last time (4th time) i over stayed for about 20 days after the i-94 expired.
Normally first 3 times they gave i-94 for 3 months, last time it is only for 2 months, so it's my mistake i haven't looked it till iam
back. All this happened in June 2009. Now i am aproved for H1 - B for the year 2010. I need to face a visa interview. In DS 156
Application, Question No 38. ( Have you ever voilated the terms of a U.S. Visa or Been unlawfully present in,........)
I am checking the option Yes. Can you all help me in this please. Does 20 days extra stay will effect my H1 - B visa or if i get
the Visa, when i go to USA on H1 - B Visa does immigration stop me. Please help me on this case. Thanks a lot for all your
help.
Please post this in the lawyers section so that the attorneys can respond.

given the priority date and the processing dates i want to understand how the uscis will process our applications
now the Nebraska service center is processing June 8, 2008. so based on the priority date it is processing all the applications that are current and have been filed before June 8th. Now let us say they take an application and start processing it and suddenly the PD goes back and I am not current any more - what do USCIS do. Do they just stack it back or what do they do. any thoughts.

Hi,
I got a contract offer at company A (Industry: Health) at a big city. Currently I am working for a State Government as a contractor. As per salary is concerned not much of a difference between the two contract positions. Me and and my wife are currently working but at different places. 2-3 months back we thought of moving to a big place so that the probability of the other person getting job would be more and we can stay together at the same place so I applied for Company A. They accepted my resume but because of the economy and budget constraints they hold the position and after sometime I forgot about it. I dropped the idea of moving and didn't apply for any jobs because of the current economy situations. Now last week after more than 2 months they reopened that position and interviewed me and I got the offer yesterday. Now I am in a dilemma whether to take this offer at Company A or stay where I am until the economy goes little better. My current job is stable. Added to that my wife's contract getting over in Jan 2009. I am cracking my head here thinking what's right thing to do.
Scenarios:
1. If I moved to Company A and my job is good and then after Jan my wife can look for a job at that place. (chances are more because of Big City). Everything is good.
2. If I moved to Company A and crisis is soo bad and I lost my job and from jan my wife contract is ending. After that it's just nightmare.
3. If I stay where I am and once the economy stabilizes atleast a bit and look for a job.
I really appreciate your suggestions. I know they are people in our forum who studied current economy so good and can give me a valuable advice. Thanks.

Yes, you can return to the US with the same visa, as long as you are employed with the H-1B petitioner. It is better if you have some documentation about projects etc. There is no need to furnish pay stubs for the time you spent outside of US.

Hi Gaurav,
Unfortunately, I don't think it is possible to customize the scrollbar inside a WebBrowser. The WebBrowser is almost a direct inline view of the IE browser, so if your IE browser's scrollbars were different, then I believe the WebBrowser control's scrollbars would be different as well.
In other words, the style is inherited from IE.
:)

NIW 140 approved last year. EB1a 140 RFE/485 pending. Can I file a new 485 for NIW? or do I have to withdraw the pending 485 before filing the new 485?
Thanks a lot.
I am in similar boat. What does your lawyer say? I am waiting for my lawyer response. How about option on interfiling NIW 140 with the pending I-485. That is do not file new I-485 but change underlined I-140 in the old one. Ask your lawyer about that and let us also know whats his/her response.

Hello,
I need an urgent information. My visa stamping in my passport got expired, but I have valid I-797 document. I am planning to have my visa restamping in India. I came to know that with expired visa stamp we can not travel via UK and France. Can you please advice if I can travel via Frankfurt, Germany? or do I need to get a Transit Visa.
Anyone who has travelled through Germany with expired H1B visa stamp?
I have to travel within a week and I would appreciate your advice.
TIA

1)My I 94 expires in 2 months.I don't want to extend H1 and I want to use EAD.So how can I extend my I94 if I start using EAD?
2)I finished 4yrs of stay on H1B. If I don't extend H1B now and start using EAD, if by any reason my 485 denies in future, can I switch back to my H1B and work for the remaining 2yrs on H1B?
