A Bad Deal Gets Worse (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/05/opinion/05sun2.html) August 5, 2007
President Bush is understandably desperate for some kind of foreign policy success. But that cannot justify sacrificing his principled stand against weapons proliferation to seal a nuclear cooperation deal with India. The agreement could end up benefiting New Delhi�s weapons program as much as its pursuit of nuclear power.
The deal was deeply flawed from the start. And it has been made even worse by a newly negotiated companion agreement that lays out the technical details for nuclear commerce. Congress should reject the agreement and demand that the administration, or its successor, negotiate a new one that does not undermine efforts to restrain the spread of nuclear weapons.
Any agreement needs to honor the principle Mr. Bush set forth in 2004: that countries do not need to make their own nuclear fuel, or reprocess their spent fuel, to operate effective nuclear energy programs. The technology can be all too easily diverted to make fuel for a nuclear weapon.
Unfortunately, Mr. Bush�s accord with India jettisoned that essential principle. Washington capitulated to India�s nuclear establishment and endorsed continued reprocessing. And while United States law calls for nuclear cooperation to end if India detonates another weapon, the agreement makes no explicit mention of that requirement � while it promises that Washington will acquiesce, if not assist, in India�s efforts to find other fuel suppliers.
Bringing India � which never signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty � in from the cold is not a bad idea. It is the world�s most populous democracy, with a dynamic economy. And its record on nonproliferation � aside from its own diversion of civilian technology to its once-secret weapons program � is pretty good. The problem is that the United States got very little back. No promise to stop producing bomb-making material. No promise not to expand its arsenal. And no promise not to resume nuclear testing.
The message of all this is unmistakable: When it comes to nuclear proliferation, Washington�s only real policy is to reward its friends and punish its enemies. Suspicion of America�s motives around the world are high enough. America cannot afford another such blow to its credibility, especially when it is trying to rally international pressure against nuclear programs in Iran and North Korea.
The administration will argue that altering this agreement now would be a slap at India. But there is no good in compounding a bad deal. And there are better ways to deepen political and economic ties.
Congress accepted the administration�s arguments far too uncritically when it approved the first India-related nuclear legislation last December. It must now take a stand against the even more damaging companion agreement. At a time when far too many governments are re-examining their decision to forswear nuclear weapons, the United States should be shoring up the nuclear rules, not shredding them.

I read in one of the threads (couldn't locate it now) where USCIS asked for the financials from the new employer in an AC21 case. So just be prepared.

I entered usa in H4 visa in july 2008 , while my H1 was applied from india in april 2008 ,and H1 got approved . now my employer is forcing me to do COS(H4 to H1) or go to india for stamping because he can't hold my H1 in a approved state so long . due to current market condition and so many rejections i am afraid to go for COS . He is asking $2800 only for regular COS processing !!!! thats too high , he is going to file fresh H1 petition I129 along with COS I539 .
my question is
instead of applying fresh H1 petition i.e I129 , since my H1 is already in approved state so can i apply only I539 for changing my status ?

Friends,
I have a scheduled EAD FP (e-filed) next Monday in the Dallas Area.
My 485 FPs have not yet come and my dates are current. I am planning to ask the ASC Officer if they can take my 485 FPs also. I know some people had success with this method.
However, my situation is a little different,
I do not have my 485 Receipt (Lost in mail and returned as undeliverable :( ). I have opened numerous SRs and have those notices. What can I take to the ASC ??

From the Houston Chronicle: More Texas voters think unauthorized immigrants should be allowed to stay in the United States � through either a path to citizenship or work visas � than favor deporting them, according to a new Houston Chronicle/San Antonio Express-News poll. The poll showed that 38 percent of respondents favoring deportation � drawing the most support of the three options offered. Twenty-nine percent favored a way for unauthorized immigrants to attain citizenship, while 23 percent supported work visas.

I m not sure but I think he has to wait till he gets his citizenship . The other way to apply for Tourist or student visa. Tourist visa will be for short time and student visa will be hard to get if the Husband is Green Card holder.
Again, I m not 100% sure of this. some experienced people may be able to give you detailed information

Giving I-485 benefits to people without current PDs is a bad idea.
so what 's good idea to you......putting all of EB applicants who are waiting to file 485 in waiting state until you get your GC is a good idea?
First of all, why are you being worried about this action item being EB1 applicant and you will get your GC in no time...
I don't think you are from EB1 category...You are selfish mind who holds EAD and doesn't want other EB applicants to come in to 485 waiting line.
would you have had the same thought if there was no July 07 fiasco and if you would need to wait in the line........selfish minds like you can't stop this action item.
Stop opposing this item here. &&%^%^%$$#####

Guys, we should have more rallies like the SJ one in bay area.. the next target can be San Francisco - Civic Center.
There are many official bulidings like City Hall here and we will definitely get heard again.
I always suggested for this type of gathering on roads so as to get heard. THIS WAS A JOB WELL DONE by people who attended and organized.
Finally to gsc and others, save banners and material from the the SJ rally so that we dont have to start from scrach.
For the people who didnt make it, please attend the next one no matter what.
What do u guys say for Aug 18 ?

Shortly after we published our last post on January 29, entitled, �Is it Time for an End to the H-1B Protectionist Restrictions Applicable To TARP Recipients?�, USCIS issued guidance on precisely the issue that the post raised; that is, �whether the companies who received TARP funds, but have since repaid them to the government, are still restricted by the H-1B dependent rules?� It would be a bit presumptuous on our part to surmise that USCIS policymakers are readers of this blog -- it�s much more likely that this guidance was issued in anticipation of the impending H-1B filing season rapidly...

My priority date is Jan 04 which was current in June this year. My stupid lawyer sent the whole package of I485 and I765 for me and wife to Chicago address (for family based cases) instead of the Nebraska address where employment based cases are supposed to be sent. The package was mailed around 15th June. I started getting worried since my checks haven't been cashed today so I called the National customer center where they told me about this goof up and said they mailed the package back to the lawyer, last Tuesday.
I don't know if there is anything that can be done at this point to salvage the situation since, with the July bulletin fiasco everything is unavailable now. Really appreciate if any one knowledgeable can comment...any help really
