From Kluge Pledges $400 Million To Columbia for Student Aid (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/04/11/AR2007041102183.html), Thursday, April 12, 2007
John W. Kluge, who launched his media empire with an investment in a Washington-area radio station, has pledged $400 million from his estate to Columbia University.
The promised gift, one of the largest ever from an individual to a university, will be used exclusively for student financial aid.
Kluge, 92, an immigrant from Germany who graduated from Columbia 70 years ago, served in the military and went into business in the 1940s. He was president and chairman of Metromedia Inc., overseeing a collection of television stations and various businesses including the Harlem Globetrotters. He lived large: In the 1980s, Washington Post articles described his property near Charlottesville, with a golf course designed by Arnold Palmer, a disco and pheasant hunting.
And he donated, giving money to places such as the University of Virginia and the Library of Congress. He had given more than $110 million to Columbia. He turned over his 7,000-acre Charlottesville estate to the University of Virginia.
His gift is the largest for student aid at an institution, said John Lippincott, president of the Council for Advancement and Support of Education.
As college tuition continues to outpace the rising cost of living, some schools have put increasing emphasis on finding ways to make education more affordable. Last year, Columbia announced that students from families earning less than $50,000 a year would get grants, not loans, to cover costs; several other schools have begun similar programs.
At a ceremony yesterday in New York to announce the gift, Kluge said that he wanted to ensure that Columbia remained a place for the best and the brightest -- and that, because its endowment was not nearly as large as many peer institutions, the university would require that support.
Philanthropy to higher education has been doubling every decade, Lippincott said. "We're now at about $28 billion a year."

I think with 17 years of Experience you can easily be filed in EB2. You need better Education evaluation certificate.

The requirements for the position shouldn't exceed SVP time levels for the job zone to which the position code belongs - that's all I know. If the position code falls under zone IV or V you can require MS.
I still don't understand how BS+5 qualifies for EB2. If the position code falls is in zone V, BS+5 (7 years of SVP) would be a "normal" requirement, but isn't EB2 only for people with advanced degrees AND positions that require the advanced degree?

The poor response is because we are not together and we truly do not believe in our goal. With the assumption that 90% of IV members are Indians, I can safely say this is innate in our culture - we want to get the benefit without working for it AND once we get the benefit, we give a damn about the rest of "them". :mad:

What are you talking about? Let me have two of whatever you are smoking or drinking.
You have it all wrong. Your experience or qualification DO NOT QUALIFY you for EB2. It is the requirement of JOB that matters. GOT IT.
Now go scream your lungs out in front of the Capitol, Yelling "DISCRIMINATION".:mad:
Instead of finding his faults, wouldn't it be easier to show some empathy to the point he is raising?
IV has to do something specifically for EB3 I soon or else we'll lose the confidence of a lot of supporters. 2001...are you kidding me?

I have an Idea, instead of all of us spending time in making useless predictions, why not engage an astrologer from India, pay him a few hundred dollars, create him an account and have him run the "Bulletin Patra" (Like Janam Patra) every month?

I got my license renewed till 2013. No issues at all. I am on EAD.
I love NY!
Bottlemani:
Your driver's license in NY EFFECTIVELY expires the day your EAD expires. It will probably show a later date as an official expiration date, but that date is of little use. In red letters they have another date that shows the date of your EAD expiry, which cannot be 2013. That is the date of expiration of your DL. Make sure you get it renewed before it expires.
I have had to renew my DL two times here in NY State because my EAD expired.

Just to follow up on BKarnik's response. Eventually, all DMV will be on the same page. As I'v mentioned earlier, some dmv branch office here in colorado have no clue why the computer system was referring my friend to MVI and after my friend went to another branch, that's were they found out that this new procedure was implemented just in August 2006.
If it has not happened in some other states, that's good and I hope this procedure will succeed.
Remember, this has no exception even for citizens.
Again, this is so in Colorado.

My only concern is AC21 letters not getting into your file and USCIS issuing a NOID or a denial.
Other than notifying CIS of our job change, there is nothing else we can do. If it results in a denial, it is easy enough to reverse that, so I would not worry about it.
I am changing jobs in 2 weeks. As I said earlier, I am prepared for my employer revoking the 140 and CIS denying my 485 by mistake. At this point, I am not even bothering to notify CIS about my job change.

Please feel free to comment or correct any facts.
Fact Sheet: Who's Looking Out for You?
Green Card Visa Numbers Situation
� The GC process involves Labor Certification (2-3 months) + I-140 (0-12 Months) + Wait for priority dates to become current (several years) + security checks (1 month to 2 years) + I-485 processing once priority dates become current (18 months to 3 years).
� Yearly green cards quota for employment based applicants is 140,000. This includes visas for spouses and children. So on an average; it is given to ~ 60,000 families.
� Country visas limit is 7%, with almost equal distribution for EB-1, EB-2 and EB-3 plus any unused visas from other countries. Generally speaking, for countries like India, approximately 7000 visas (~3000 families) were being issued every year in each of these categories.
� It is estimated that approximately 500K+ (yes 500K) I-485 applications under skilled worker category were filed between July 2nd and August 17th 2007. Most of these applications were from people of India and China.
� Employment Based Immigration reforms do not find enough support on the senate floors (Failure of SKIL, STEM etc Bills). As a matter of fact, it does not even get enough support to make it debatable, let alone final voting on the bills.
� USCIS is a self-funded organization i.e. it is run on fees it receives and is short on resources.
What do these jargons mean?
� Priority dates will remain retrogressed for several years.
� Those who could not file their I-485 now will now have to waitttttt�..
� Due to resource constraints, security checks may take years.
� Once PD becomes current, it takes on an average 1 year to 3 years to get approval.
� Endless cycle of EAD renewals and Advance paroles.
� For any reason, if any of your EAD gets rejected, you will need to stop working, In other words, need to leave your job.
� You need to be in the same position with same job responsibilities for an indefinite time period otherwise you Green Card application will be rejected.
� EADs are valid for one year and several employers (and rightly so) view it as a temporary permit and hence reluctant to hire you.
� Once PD becomes current, it takes on an average 1 year to 3 years to get approval.
� So virtually you have three options: a) Struggle for several years b) Leave the USA c) Join us.

Agreed it's frustrating to go thru a roller-coaster ride as far as GC is concerned. I believe members of IV are leaving no stone unturned to tide over the GC hurdles by speaking in one voice and acting in unison.
Literally, we must have the 'staying power' to do this. If people wanna go back to their home country, it's their personal decision. Impatience and frustration should not be the driving factor for people to return to their home country.

I always loved this board for what it does - especially the Gurus who always spend their precious time giving input to member's queries. Well... this is not query. I just want to vent my frustration, helplessness to fellow friends in this board. In spite of graduating from a reputed univ with a Masters and very good GPA and also having 7 years of professional experience, I am bound to be a slave to my current Employer without any promotions, career growth or anything remote to that for next (God knows how many Decades) several years. ppl who are junior to me in every aspect are growing left and right and are also getting brighter opportunities. I dont care if you guys think I am jealous of them.... But does God really exist ? sorry for wasting your time with this depressing note. I guess there is a limit to how unlucky I can be !! call me a cry baby but I am one real unlucky individual !

This is what happens after 485 receipts.
1. If one has not applied for EAD and TD , one applies for them and wait anxiously for their receipts.
2. Meanwhile some people start getting FP notices and one does not receive them he or she gets anxious. Finally one gets FP.
3. Meanwhile one gets the receipts for EAD, TD. One keeps checking the status online.
4. One goes and gives finger prints for INS.
5. Finally one gets his or her EAD and TD after 5 to 6 months , One enjoys the moment briefly.
6. Its almost a month since one received EAD and AP , Its time to apply for renewal.
7. Repeat step 1
8. Its almost 15 months since the first FP and one receives the second one because "Finger prints expire" ,
One has to repeat these steps in a cycle for almost 6 to 10 years depending on PD and "Nationality"
Meanwhile if USCIS changes any processes anywhere in the pipeline expect further delays.
I think best thing is to do participate in IV activities.

I guess using our degrees to pass on a message is a fool-proof idea. That can immediately catch on with media like flowers did. If not stoppers, we can write our message in bold colors on the degrees.
Indeed thoughtful. I'm all in for it.
That's neat. We should all send a copy of our MS or other higher education degrees to lawmakers. On the back (or on the front itself) we can write details of our GC process.
