What a shameful story. DOJ announcement on the indictment of six individuals (http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09/04/us/04trafficking.html) for engaging in a conspiracy to commit forced labor and document servitude. The charges arise from the defendants� alleged scheme to coerce the labor and services of approximately 400 Thai nationals to work on U.S. farms.
The Justice Department announced that a federal grand jury in Honolulu
indicted Mordechai Orian, an Israeli national; Pranee Tubchumpol, Shane Germann and Sam
Wongsesanit of Global Horizons Manpower Inc., located in Los Angeles; and Thai labor
recruiters Ratawan Chunharutai and Podjanee Sinchai for engaging in a conspiracy to commit
forced labor and document servitude. The charges arise from the defendants� alleged scheme tocoerce the labor and services of approximately 400 Thai nationals brought by the defendants to the United States from Thailand from May 2004 through September 2005 to work on farms
across the country under the U.S. federal agricultural guest worker program. Orian, Tubchumpol and Chunharutai are also charged with three substantive counts of compelling the
labor of three Thai guest workers.
If convicted, Orian and Tubchumpol each face maximum sentences of 7 0 years in prison,
Chunharutai faces a maximum sentence of 65 years in prison, Germann and Wongsesanit each face a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison, and Sinchai, who was recently charged in Thailand with multiple counts of recruitment fraud, faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison if convicted in the United States.
Instead of achieving the American dream, the workers arrived into an American nightmare. This company forced them to live groups of men in labor camps, charging each of them thousands of dollars and forbidding them from living off company grounds. Instead of permanent residency and green cards, the workers received temporary, ten-month H-2B guest worker visas, which allow no path to more permanent status. And since H-2B visas bind workers to a single employer, company answered workers� complaints with threats of deportation. Such acts are in contrary to the spirit of the H2B visa (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137785.html) and we call for harsh punishment for these individuals.

Hi,
I have been on h1 for 7 yrs in the US and i am leaving back to my home country (India) as it is expiring this month. I plan to come back and start working for my current company next yr.
Now can they Process my new H1 in April next yr(6 months from now) or they have to wait till OCT 2007 to process my new h1. I am afraid the next yr quota will be over if they have to wait till OCT.

There are very few private loan options that you have. If you have a co-signer who is permanent resident or a US Citizen, you have a bigger pool of options but I know of one organization "Access Group" who give out loan if your stay in US is more than 3 yrs + if you have 4 credit cards in your name..You can dig into more details by googling them.
Most of the schools in US also have a tie up with TMS (tuition management system) which let you pay your semester fees in monthly installments. You might want to check that out too. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

Hi all,
My H1 was expired last year with 6 years terms so I used my EAD since last year. Can I go back to H1B still because my i-485 is still pending for renewal another 3 years term? Which law is winning, 6 years H1B if did not continue renew my H1 or I-485 pending so I can continue renew? I have found different attorney have different answer.
Please also see this link.

Sorry about the denial. I had a friend in the same situation. BE + MBA from IIM Cal. His I140 rejected too....for the same reason may be....even IIMs accept 3 year degrees and that is what caused the issue. The more i read about these things, the more I think that MBA is not considered equivalent to MS for the I140. Even though MBAs have more challenging jobs and earn way more than people with MS. It all boils down to demand supply thing. Many people in the US have MBAs but not MS.

For those who have same problem.
I just come back from local USCIS office. They do not make changes on I-94 any more ( I did show the memo whick is outdated according to the office). Now it's direct mail service. The supervisor of the office confirmed that I do not need file I-102 form if I file I-485 to adjust status, but I do need copies of all my I-94s including the error one. Good luck to anyone.

The application procedures vary based on the consulate you are planning to visit for visa stamping.
so which consulate you are planning to visit to get visa stamping? no need for emergency appointment if you are planning to get it done in india.
in india, from October 2006 things are changed, you can get appointment easily, even now there are dates available in december (also in november). if you book now, you can get appointment in december.
check VFS sites. if you have any questions about the eliglibity, contact VFS numbers or send email from the following page:
https://www.vfs-usa.co.in/ApplnForms/RulesAndFees/CustomerFeedback.aspx
also you can check appointment dates at one of the indian consulates at the following page and at the bottom of the page, click the link 'Click here for an estimate of current availability of visa interview appointments':
https://www.vfs-usa.co.in/Home.aspx
To book appointment in VFS site, you need HDFC receipts from HDFC bank branch for each of the applicants, so for procedure, check fees and forms link in this VFS site.
At the beginning, the principal applicant can create one application with his/her hdfc receipt number with other reqd details and later can add their dependents at later stage of application. You can fill other DS-156/157 forms here.
good luck!!!!
Disclaimer:
I'm not an immigration attroney, so consult one for your situations as laws/procedures keep changing.
Hello All - I understand from the website that the people already working in the US qualify for an emergency appointment if they are returning back to work in the US. Does anyone if this rule is also applicable it is the first time you are getting a H1-B visa stamp? I got a COS and am planning to get a stamp in December. I know that more dates are available now .. but was wondering if the need arises will I eligible for emergency appointment?
Thanks!

So guys just off the phone with a very decent IO at NSC . talked to her 30 mins, yes you are right 30 mins..which is unheard off..
the questions that I asked were very simple
Q1. Hello Maam, i would like to know the status of my I485
A1. This is not the place to ask for status
Q2: But, Maam, I wanted to know where my case stands as people with PDs and RDs later than mine (mine is March 2006 and July 26 2007) are being adjudicated
A2: Well, we cannot disclose anybody else's case, but each case is different, so we dont know
Q3: Okay, but can u tell me if my namecheck has been cleared (although i checked a week back and another IO told me it was cleared)
A3: No, for privacy purposes we cannot disclose this info
Q4: Okay then can you tell me why there was a LUD on my approved I40 on 7/13. (guess there were lots of us who had this)
A4: Yes, I can tell you that, what is your Receipt number
Q5. Here is my recpt number
A5: Okay it looks like your I140 was filed at Texas and they sent the file over to us. we consolidated that with your I485
Q6: Does that mean that my case is being worked upon
A6: No it does not mean that. This step is one of many many steps that are required for 485 processing. so this will not tell you anything
Q7: Is my case assigned to a IO
A7: No we cannot give this info, and even if you have this info, it is useless info as the center is going towards Backlog.
Q8: Then what is the meaning of processing dates as issued by USCIS
A8: They dont mean much,. they are just a gestimation of where things stand, and as off now the centers are facing backlog. there is lot of restructuring going on within the centers. The place to check is on the website., any change will be reflected there and it is upto date.
This was the gist of my call with the IO today.. w
What is the bottom line?
Sit tight and things will move only when USCIS wants.. nothing will happen otherwise..
so guys good luck to all of us.....
cheers

Looks like a tough little guy to capture. The way things are lined up, I think you could successfully clone out the branches in front of him. I'd leave the others. Any more sharpening would over-sharpen thetail. Although you could copy the layer, apply more sharpening to the layer, then mask out everything except the parts of the head you'd like to change.
