Probably you are right for EB3 ROW but I don't think that is true for EB2 ROW.
I would have said 2020 but as you are not part of India or china may be 2015.

Thanks all who replied to my thread. I am contacting Air France regarding this transit crap. I will post my experience on this forum, when I get answer from Airline.
One thing is for sure, I will never again travel by Air france, BA and Lufthansa.
Dear friend I would recommend you to contact the consulate by email, because all rules are always subject to change, that way you can be sure!

Why do you want to get the visa stamped for your old employer (Employer A)? The Chennai consulate will know that you have a newer H1B with a different company. Your attorney is correct in that joining Employer B as soon as returning from India shows false intent. USCIS could interpret that as fraud and you could be putting your GC at risk (this is just an extreme possibility - but anything can happen).
You should get visa stamp for Employer B when you are in Chennai. The embassy will only want proof of legal status in the US - not the paystubs from the company that you are going to work for (If that is the case - then no one will be able to come to the US for work on H1B - as they will not have any paystubs from the company that they are going to work for).
Couple of years back I was in a similar situation, I had already taken interview with the Chennai consulate and provided details of I-129, etc while taking the appt. However, 45 days before going to India, I changed my job and got H1 done through premium processing. I had to only fax details of my new I-129 and other documents to TTS (it was TTS at that time) and they made the relevant changes in the system. I went to the interview with only one paystub from new employer and the remaining from the old employer. At the consulate, the office asked me only for the latest pay stub. I asked him if he wanted the latest from old employer or the single one from the new employer. He said give me whichever is the latest. I handed over the single paystub from new employer and that was it. The total time in front of the visa office was less than 2 minutes for me and less than 30 seconds for my wife.
Don't complicate your case unnecessarily. Just get the visa based on the new H1B. The consulate will know about the new approval. If you lie to them, they will deny your visa. This might even prevent you from re-entering the US even if you have AP (since fraud is a valid reason to deny entry into the US).

Tying EB related issues to Wall street is a self defeating enterprise right now in this economic climate.., if our issues are equated with wall street brain drain, we may not get much sympathy from the common public, therefore the politicians.
Hello All,
In Interesting article/Video posted by Yahoo Finance
Contrary to popular opinion and the view of many politicians, the "brain drain" issue on Wall Street is real, says Dave Kansas, author of "The End of Wall Street as We Know It."
Kansas, a Wall Street Journal contributing editor, notes the concurrent trends of foreign-born workers returning to their home countries and Wall Street's homegrown "risk-takers" joining smaller firms or opening their own boutiques.
In other words, when CEOs like Morgan Stanley's John Mack and Citigroup's Vikram Pandit complain about the risk of losing the "best and brightest" if the government imposes onerous restrictions on compensation, there's validity to their claims, Kansas says.
These trends - compensation restrictions, the rise of boutique firms, more competition from international competitors and big shops becoming more risk-averse - come in the wake of a largely self-made cataclysm that hit Wall Street in the past 18 months.
And Kansas notes it's "early innings" in terms of both the industry's transformation and the new regulatory environment that's certain to come down the D.C. beltwa

MY QUESTION TO YOU ALL
Do you think the govt will do something soon about this? Can we expect a merit based point system in the new CIR? Does anyone has information on merit system in new CIR?
Please advise.
Thank you

It will not have much impact if any president comes in the case of immigration. Anyhow most of them are not going to Veto. It is the congress who plays important role. President can just initiate the process. Bush tried his best to pass some immigration reform but divided congress defeated all the bills. Who is the reason? Not just anti immigrants but also pro immigrant groups. Expectation from pro immigrants was too much and in some cases impractical. Anti immigrants used those and defeated every time. Also anti immigrants used division in various groups like legal vs illegal, high skilled vs low skilled and H1 vs green card. Some unbiased leader need to bring a bill which should work compromise at the same time that compromise should benefit all the groups. But unfortunately most congressmen are busy in other works. Next congress is critical for any immigration reform

I had mentioned in earlier posts that as I understand IV's goals are broader than just getting the visa dates current. We as a organization should aim to streamline the legal immigration system at least employment based .... if possible even the family based. This would include but not be limited to at least some positive legislation that would enable more legal immigrants to get PR status.
I assume Waldenpond, logiclife, pappu .... and all the leaders are working towards this and all of us are behind you supporting in your efforts.
No one is scaling back. I dont really think there is any conspiracy to this and I think this is really good news.
However the core group is still committed to getting retrogression issue addressed by congress. In fact, I am right now in DC and I am attending a briefing event tommorow. Aman was here last week thurs and Friday and will be here again next week. We are continuing efforts regardless of this big jump because we know that dates can move in reverse direction as it has in the past. In Oct 2005, EB3 dates took a huge movement backwards into 1998 and such reverse movements can happen again this year in October or in last quarter of fiscal year 2007. So we are taking this with cautious optimism and continuing our work with this.

Numbers USA cares about total number of immigrants per year.
If you move visa numbers from EB1, EB2 and EB3 to EB5 with fancy tactics like hard country quota(What Specter and Frist bills are doing), they dont really care.
They will be happy if the GRAND TOTAL of all greencards per year is brought down from number X to number Y. The grand total is a total of all Greencards: Family Based, Employment based, Diversity, Refugee etc.

I have a straight case working on H1 for same employer since 5 years. My 2nd H1 was approved on Oct 1 2007 valid till 2010. I saw a soft LUD on my H1 for 4/26/2009. I am not too worried I think it is just system update thing.
My previous attorney also mentioned the same thing. Looking at this thread it seems all soft/hard lud's were generated on Sunday, April 26th. Maybe a computer program flagged these cases.

I think you are absolutely right. Starting a business without a partnership is nearly impossible because you will be violating the H1 by working for it.
However, if you go into a partnership, that will be like owning stocks of a company. You don't have to work for it.
But you raise a good point about tax return scrutiny when you go for stamping. They can ask how you were making business income.
Has anyone here run a business on H1? What are the tax implications?
I have looked into this and talked to my lawyer. The basic consensus seems to be -- yes you can start your own business (wither alone or in partnership with someone else). But as long as you are on H1B VISA and do not have at least an EAD, you cannot actively(which means you cannot be running the day to day operations) work on your business. You can promote the business perform occasional volunteer work, but cannot be paid for this work.
I believe you can derive profits from the business (check with your lawyer because he's the one who will have to deal with any USCIS headaches), but as with all things, if the profits are high enough, your business may be scrutinized by the USCIS. Also remember when you go to the consulate to stamp your H1B, they will examine your tax records, and you will have to have a good enough explanation as to how you owned the business without violating the H1B status (by actively working on it). It's tricky and unless you are talking about small amounts of money think very carefully about starting your own business.
Since you cannot actively run the business, it makes sense to partner with a person who is authorized to run the day to day operations of the business (either a citizen of the US or a perm resident).

if you have time (like vacation, travel out of US ...) available "recapture" them
You probably would have started work in Oct
And you cannot extended H1 beyond 6 yrs because your labor PD is less than a year
