i believe that the unity among indians in UK is far greater than that of indians here in USA.
On my last trip to london I had a brief glimpse at the clout of Indian community there, they are very strong and united to make their voices heard, no doubt Tony Blair acknowledged.
I have almost decided to let my american dream rest in peace, now I am looking at immigrating to Canada, in my last 5 years of study about canadian society , i have noticed it to very liberal and many of my friends both indians and americans who settled there have settled for life, many of them work across border in USA either in detroit or in seattle but they are not interested in moving their homes here. So I think i can pursue my dream of free world and enterpreneurship from there.
H1b status and pre GC status is a big quagmire of blackholes, I am not interested in putting away 10 years of my life waiting for GC.
Screw GC , Canadian PR is there, if nothing works my home-India is there ...

H1 B Alien need not be paid all the time. I guess one can be on unpaid vacation for a while. pls see below.

Krishna_brc is correct. H1 B alien can be on medical leave, sick leave and can be unpaid during that period.

Non-Immigrants - All talk and no action?
I have been a silent member of ImmigrationVoice.org, a group formed by and for Highly Skilled Non-Immigrants wishing to legally migrate to the US to lobby Congress for reforms. When I first heard about ImmigrationVoice on another immigration bulletin board, I was curious to find out what their agenda was. With an ambitious goal of reforming the immigration system to favor the Highly Skilled Immigrants and with a little over 200 members, I was one amongst the next 100 who hoped that this then small organization would make a difference and signed up. I am here on a H1B work visa and still have 3 years left. I know that this struggle has to start for me now for it would be too late.
By now, the organization had grown to almost 3000 members and with a dedicated team of advisors and group members, they made a bang in the immigrant community last year by going on a PR spree and even rallied amendments through prominent pro-immigrant senators and lobbying firms to include/introduce amendments in the failed 2006 CIR bill, all through meagre finances (compared to other anti-immigrant groups) albeit rich with passion and hope.
I consciously started donating not because I was hoping that something WILL happen, but atleast with the hope that I tried to make it happen and that I can proudly go down if it didn't. People have almost always benefited from the actions of a small group of highly motivated individuals who tried and tried and tried. Some succeeded but some failed. Those who led and won will make history. Those who followed and won will proudly remember the history. Those who refused to follow and still won will with guilt remember the history.
Hope is the quintessential trait of a successful person. If I knew how to predict the future, I wouldn't be here. What is important is that behind hope there is always strength. Mahatma Gandhi once said that "Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will".
Every non-immigrant has the indomitable will to succeed based on his/her definition of success. I had the indomitable will to fly 12,000 miles to a destination I had never been to, clutching a scholarship and hope. I had the indomitable will to persist after 9/11 to find a job. If I didn't I would have called it quits and returned back home. My friend almost got killed at a gas station. Why? He had the indomitable will to try to stand up on his own to pay his tuition and living expenses. There are several stories of sacrifices and will power that constantly amaze me even till this day. One guy worked at a meat packing plant to earn minimum wage while simultaneously studying for a triple major. The worst part of his story was that he comes from a strict indian family of orthodox brahmins who by tradition and religion consider all living beings sacred.
When you hear these stories of how people have lived their lives to reach wherever they are, lobbying for a reform should be an easier task. Its not rocket science. Just like americans, we non-immigrants take our rights for granted. "We pay taxes. We pay Social Security. We pay Medicare. We pay state taxes. etc. etc." SO WHAT? You drive a car, get excellent health care, make enough money to buy your parents a house/car, parade yourself everytime as the rich successful lad who left the shores to the land of opportunity everytime you visit your motherland. At what cost?
Sometimes, Charles Darwin's quotes come to my mind; Like this one - "It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change."
We, non-immigrants adapt ourselves to the utmost degree that we almost always end up trying to find the easy route in order for us to preserve our way of life in the name of adaptiveness.
John Porter counters Charles darwin by saying-"People underestimate their capacity for change. There is never a right time to do a difficult thing. A leader's job is to help people have vision of their potential."
In my humble opinion, that is exactly what ImmigrationVoice.org has been trying to do.
Off late, it seems that a majority of the members seem to bring in their own agenda and rally behind their own agenda completely devoid of ImmigrationVoice.org's objectives. There was not one bulletin board thread which has never sidetracked from the topic of discussion. In the name of constructive criticism or the character of the devil's advocate, a small minority have caused confusion and resentment of the objectives of ImmigrationVoice.org. For those members, I suggest that you read the objectives of ImmigrationVoice.org and subscribe to them or look for another group with common objectives such as yours.
I have always had the opinion that if you can't get it done, step aside and let someone else do it. Observe, encourage, argue with a discipline and respect like a professional, but don't leave. Every single ounce of hope is required to achieve ImmigrationVoice.org's goals. Its hard to convey emotions through words, but I do know that deep within every non-immigrant's heart, there is a passion for success, hard work, commitment and willpower. If not, we wouldn't be forcing the nation/world to take notice of us or atleast try doing so.

Did you join them on H1B and then move to EAD? Did you change your I-9 form when you did that? If you didn't, as far as they are concerned, you might still be on H1B and so they might feel a need to inform the USCIS. If not, well, there really is nothing in the rule book that says they have to inform the USCIS that an EAD holder left employment.

number of PERM approvals from 03/28/2005 - 10/1/2006 = 83,151
assuming 60% of those are for EB2 and EB3 (EB3 other workers are also included in the total 83151 count) = 49,890 ~ 50,000
50,000 = 39% of 128,000 unique labor certifications/primary applicants.
from my perspective this is very promising

Actually CIR was started by President Bush to regain hs popularity. Other than that it is complicated and tough to pass thru. Really lawmakers have to work hard f they want to pass because it is tough to satisfy all. So most of them must be cautious unless it comes up for discusson. Moderate people may try to maintain status quo. If CIR is pendng then all the immigration related items including EB relief will be attached to it(People will try to attach so that it can be delayed as much possible). If Congress starts discussion on Jan 2007 possiblity of becoming law is on May if they introduce CIR. But immigration may not be that much national importance issue for US congress. It does not matter whether an illegal immigrant will become citzen on now or 2009. Economy will not have an impact. Similarly a H1 person gets gc now or 2009 or 2011 the impact will be mnimal for US but impact will be heavy for that immigrant. Also Economy may slow down n 2007 and job demand may go down then it is tough to justify increase of H1 when joblessness starts increase.
I think EB2 will improve much better in coming months and EB3 also PD will move at least a few weeks to few months. Atleast people could extend H1 after 6 years. In 1999 and 2000 people did not have that option and some people left USA and came back after year. So to get gc was challenging atleast for 50% of people for past 10 years. Some people got this easily some time in past.
