You get SS after you cross 55 or 58 I think. How knows by then they might bring some law to stop the SS for outsiders.
There is a archive thread on this already.Read it dear h1bs.
the only reason i'm staying here is to complete the 10 years of social security payments. leaving now would be foolish. this green card business is just a carrot to get endlessly humiliated.
does anyone have any knowledge of non-citizens claiming social security in india?
as per the SS, indian citizens who have contributed >= 10 years can claim SS payments in india.

Hi All,
I just received an RFE for my I140 which says:
-----------------------------------------------------
The ETA Form 9089 you provided indicates a requirement for a Master's or Bachelor's degre in a certain field of study.
Submit evidence that the alien obtained the required Masters or Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Computer Science, January 24, 2007. Evidence of education must be in the form of an official record showing the dates of attendance, area of concentration of study, and date of degree award, if any.
The job offered is for a software enigineer.
You have submitted a copy of a Masters Degree of Technology in Polymer Science and Technology and of the Bachelor's degree is in the discipline of Chemical Engineering with Speciality in Polymer Technology. If you have not been granted a Masters or Bachelors in the required field, provide proof that your degree(s) has the same elements as a Masters or Bachelors in the required field(s).
-----------------------------------------------------
How to proof that my degree(s) have same elements as a Masters or Bachelors in the required field(s) - the required fields being 'Engineering or Computer Science'? I think the confusion is because the title of my degree is 'Master of Technology' and not 'Master of Engineering'... same with Bachelors.. it is 'Bachelor of Technology' and not 'Bachelor of Engineering'. Anybody from India knows they are almost same. But how to prove it to INS?
Please reply ASAP so that I have time to execute the suggested steps. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance...

Dear Friends,
We recently moved our place and we are now in a new apartment.
We have immigration matters that needs to be updated but we don't know what we should do?
The following are affected
1. EAD
2. H1B
3. AP
4. I 485 related things.
My Ead and Ap has old address and the card also holds the same old address.
Could you please tell me what steps I must initiate to get this straightened out? Do I need a new EAD card? Please help me.
Thanks a ton!

$930 plus a biometrics fee of $80; the fee total is $1,010. Exceptions listed below. There is no fee for applicants who are filing Form I-485 based on having been admitted to the United States as a refugee. Applicants 80 years of age or older are not charged a biometric fee; the fee total is $930. Applicants under 14 years of age: - Filing with the I-485 application of at least one parent have a fee total of $600 - Not filing with the I-485 application of at least one parent have a fee total of $930
I would assume that EAD and AP have to be paid for separately.

I have a similar situation and I just asked these questions from my lawyer so I can answer somewhat. Either case, someone will correct me if I am wrong.
1.Can I add my spouse to my GC status when PD is not current?My spouse is on H1B visa.
Not until your PD is current or close to being current. Does she have an approved LC and I-1140, pending 485 (concurrent filing)? If she does u may have some advantages like cross-chargeability etc.
2.If I start using EAD, is it still possible to add spouse or I should maintain valid H1 status?
Doesnt matter as long as you maintain either H1-B or AOS(pending I-485)

1. DREAM Act
2. AgJobs
3. Make the EB-1 category more reasonable.
4. Create a more reasonable bar on those accused of providing material support to terrorists to cover those essentially involuntarily providing the support.
5. Eliminate the one year bar on asylum claims.
How about clearing the backlogs in the employment based system? We are contributing to the wealth of the company and the economy but our futures are in limbo and the best years of our careers are wasted worrying about a green card!
Not surprisingly, according to the most recent State Department Visa bulletin, the EB-1 category is one of the only employment-based category without a waiting list.
Does that not indicate a problem that needs to be fixed instead of ignored as you have done Philip Wolgin?

We are a few hours away from the biggest Awards ceremony in Hollywood and the world. So what part do Immigrants play in the biggest show on earth? Talent is the one universal passport, and Hollywood has always had a place for immigrants � from German maestro Fritz Lang, who headed west when Hitler's minister of propaganda pressured him to take over Germany's top studio, to Polish Roman Polanski, who directed Los Angeles' definitive film noir, "Chinatown," and Taiwan-born Ang Lee, who became the first nonwhite to win an Academy Award for directing for "Brokeback Mountain," his reinvention of the western.
As Hollywood tries to stave off commercial stasis, the industry has been undergoing another chapter in its love affair with foreign writers and directors, particularly those from the Far East and Latin America. The international box office now accounts for more than 60% of a film's box office gross.
Of course, in this age of globalization, it's unclear what it even means to be a Hollywood immigrant anymore. "It doesn't matter where you live," says Paramount Classics chief John Lesher. "We all talk on the phone. We see each other at film festivals. You can edit a movie in Brazil, and your editor can be in London, and you can put it together seamlessly in perfect time."
So for Oscars 2010 we will not able to determine again who is an immigrant and who is not, an honestly who cares. What we want to know is who will win tonight.
For as lacking in suspense as the acting races are, the contest for the biggest prize couldn't be any closer. It's David vs. Goliath here, with 'Hurt Locker' and 'Avatar' seemingly trading "favorite" status every other day.
Unless they somehow split the votes and the Weinstein-backed 'Basterds' revises more history with an upset, the Oscar will go to either the highest-grossing Best Picture winner ever, or the lowest (in half a century, anyway). Be warned: This one is flip-a-coin close. Enjoy the Oscars tonight!!!!

The most important issue is to insure that any USCIS notices come directly to you. If the RFE was sent to your address, that is a good sign. Technically, the G-28 is only for your legal representative, though sending one in as advised above would do no harm. You might also, or instead, send a letter signed by you and your wife advising that you are no longer represented and asking that all future correspondence be addressed to your home. I would then follow up with the National Customer Service Center to make sure they have correct information.

Some had mentioned in immigration forums that you might be grilled with questions during naturalization process if you had changed employer as soon as you got your GC.If you are not planning for naturalization I assume you are fine.
A 6 month stay with current employer after GC is advised for a smooth naturalization process in future.But this is dark area as there are no posts from GC turned citizens about their experiences.

Then the big C may have to deal with the Deeez in majority in congress. A democratic congress will pass a most liberal immigration bill they can imagine. The republicans will be far better served compromising now than waiting if democrats take congress. Right now the Dems, the Prez and the Senate are on the same page.
