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?

Contact your state's senators.
Submit Ombudsman form 7001.
info on both things can be found by googling.
good luck.

He is my attorney for my GC process. He had successfully done my PERM application last year and now we are processing I-140 from last 4 months. Best thing is that he is quick and his paralegal call/email you whenever they miss any document instead of waiting for long time and going thru employer channel which consumes lots of time in between.

If you can't show you have had 3 years of experience at the time the labor was filed...you will most likely have hard times getting I140 approved.....the service centers are very thorough regarding work experience.

Hi all,
I got my labour approved in Jun'07 and applied for my I-140 in Aug'07 and have been waiting for it to be approved since then. I have not yet applied for I-485. Also,I am almost reaching my 6th year of H1-B visa(FYI:I have not got my visa stamped yet).
Now my questions are,
1) Will I be able to switch my employer now that I am in my 6th yr of H1-B.
2) If it's OK to switch, how many months are supposed to be left on H1-B visa to transfer to another employer.
3) What will happen if my present employer revokes my GC application.
4) When is the best time to switch as I will get 3 yrs of extension once I-140 is approved.
5) Will I be able to retain my priority date if my employer revokes my GC application.
Please do respond. I look forward to your replies.
Thanks.

I departed U.S due to family matter.
Now I'd like to make it sure that my B1/B2 visa is still valid,because I plan to visit to my friend who lives in U.S.
How to check my B1/B2 visa could be remained still valid?
Or does somebody know anybody who had been in same situation?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards Zulagh.

Following Bush Over a Cliff (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/09/26/AR2007092602067.html) By David S. Broder (davidbroder@washpost.com) | Washington Post, September 27, 2007
The spectacle Tuesday of 151 House Republicans voting in lock step with the White House against expansion of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) was one of the more remarkable sights of the year. Rarely do you see so many politicians putting their careers in jeopardy.
The bill they opposed, at the urging of President Bush, commands healthy majorities in both the House and Senate but is headed for a veto because Bush objects to expanding this form of safety net for the children of the working poor. He has staked out that ground on his own, ignoring or rejecting the pleas of conservative senators such as Chuck Grassley and Orrin Hatch, who helped shape the compromise that the House approved and that the Senate endorsed.
SCHIP has been one of the most successful health-care measures created in the past decade. It was started in 1997 with support from both parties, in order to insure children in families with incomes too high to receive Medicaid but who could not afford private insurance.
The $40 billion spent on SCHIP in the past 10 years financed insurance for roughly 6.6 million youngsters a year. The money was distributed through the states, which were given considerable flexibility in designing their programs. The insurance came from private companies, at rates negotiated by the states.
Governors of both parties -- 43 of them, again including conservatives such as Sonny Perdue of Georgia -- have praised the program. And they endorsed the congressional decision to expand the coverage to an additional 4 million youngsters, at the cost of an additional $35 billion over the next five years. The bill would be financed by a 61-cents-a-pack increase in cigarette taxes. If ever there was a crowd-pleaser of a bill, this is it. Hundreds of organizations -- grass-roots groups ranging from AARP to United Way of America and the national YMCA -- have called on Bush to sign the bill. America's Health Insurance Plans, the largest insurance lobbying group, endorsed the bill on Monday.
But Bush insists that SCHIP is "an incremental step toward the goal of government-run health care for every American" -- an eventuality he is determined to prevent.
Bush's adamant stand may be peculiar to him, but the willingness of Republican legislators to line up with him is more significant. Bush does not have to face the voters again, but these men and women will be on the ballot in just over a year -- and their Democratic opponents will undoubtedly remind them of their votes.
Two of their smartest colleagues -- Heather Wilson of New Mexico and Ray LaHood of Illinois -- tried to steer House Republicans away from this political self-immolation, but they had minimal success. The combined influence of White House and congressional leadership -- and what I would have to call herd instinct -- prevailed.
Rep. Pete Sessions (R-Tex.) argued that "rather than taking the opportunity to cover the children that cannot obtain coverage through Medicaid or the private marketplace, this bill uses these children as pawns in their cynical attempt to make millions of Americans completely reliant upon the government for their health-care needs."
In his new book, former Federal Reserve Board chairman Alan Greenspan wrote that his fellow Republicans deserved to lose their congressional majority in 2006 because they let spending run out of control and turned a blind eye toward misbehavior by their own members. Now, those Republicans have given voters a fresh reason to question their priorities -- or their common sense.
Saying no to immigration reform and measures to shorten the war in Iraq may be politically defensible, because there are substantial constituencies who question the wisdom of those bills -- and who favor alternative policies. But the Bush administration's arguments against SCHIP -- the cost of the program and the financing -- sound hollow at a time when billions more are being spent in Iraq with no end in sight. Bush's alternative -- a change in the tax treatment of employer-financed health insurance -- has some real appeal, but it is an idea he let languish for months after offering it last winter. And, in the judgment of his fellow Republicans on the Senate Finance Committee, Bush's plan is too complex and controversial to be tied to the renewal of SCHIP.
This promised veto is a real poison pill for the GOP.

Hi All ,
First of all , thanks soooo much for this great site. I have a small question. My PD is July 2002 under EB2 / India. I was stuck with name check. Now that name check does not matter because of new rule > 180 days and my PD becomes current from today - April 1 , how long does USCIS take to make a decision about my case ? Do I need to call them and request a case review or do something to see some movement ? Kindly advice. Or is it just wait ?
Sincerely , MHK

Friends Hi :
I have one question. Once we receive EAD and all 9 yards notices and once you switch from H1 to EAD system with same employer, are you still bound to work with same employer for full 40 hours.. can you cut your hours to 20 hours (nooo second job too). I can just work 20 hours a week . Is that permissible to be on EAD and still get GC processed?
Pls. advise me
Thanks

I am currently on H-1b and my wife is on H-4. My current job will be terminated on 8/15 and my wife has received H1b approval notice to start full time on 10/1. We have a US born baby who requires future post-surgery follow-ups. I was on F-1 visa, requested OPT through the university, but I didn't applied to USCIS, because I got H-1b premium processing approval. My wife has a valid H-4, and unexpired B1/B2 visa. So my questions are:
a) Between 8/15 and 10/1, are we out of status?
b) I should file a change of status. Should I file
(b-1) H-1b to H-4 directly (effective 10/1)?
(b-2) H-1b to B1/B2 (before 8/15), then B1/B2 to H-4 (effective 10/1)?
(b-3) H-1b to F-1 (before 8/15), then F-1 to H-4 (effective 10/1)?
(b-4) F-1 OPT with university endorsement, if they are willing to do it?
c) Do I need to go abroad and actually get B1/B2 visa since I never got one? I think a change of status should be okay.
Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
