You never know! All the gray areas of payment, unenforceable contracts are a game of poker, he bluffed and you blinked. See if the reverse can happen now. Send him a mail or call him up and see his reaction. Say that you spoke to a lawyer and the recommended path is to begin with small-claims court and if that does not work out you will be filing a lawsuit. if he offers you anything back to avoid these hassles (say 3.5k) then go for it (& take your family out to hawaii this summer)
p.s: just as mbartosik said, you need documents to prove everything, hope you have all those, without that nothing will stand up in court (though you might scare him enough to actually pay you)
Thank you once again for your recommendation and trust me I am cloud 9 while reading suggestion by you & "mbartosik"....I just took a close look at my previous documents including pay stubs, signed contracts and my last detail email explaining how much I paid for GC (pay stubs clearly explains) and how much I paid & how I paid for the balance amount...which I sent to HR Manager & cc to CEO ..
Shame on me I couldn't even remember how much I paid until I saw my last email it was not 7K, the total amount I paid was $7.5K..
I checked with my current employer(since he is my friend too) & see if there will be any side effects by doing this..& he pretty much said I am at benefit side to for sure win the case since its clearly mentioned in pay stubs, your contract, & your last email which can be add on as supporting documents to help your case winning but I may have to also prepare myself if I had clean record since day one (year 2001) have pay stubs etc., in some cases DOL would be interested to know details from scratch and see if my records are straight even before knocking employer 2 door..
I know for the fact that I was out of my project when I came to US back in 2001 for 5 months and during that time I was not given pay stubs (it was pretty bad IT market at that time...)and later got into another project & if questioned by DOL for missing pay stubs then I may have to be prepared to answer any such questions.....and it might put me in trouble and
(2) second item I may have to think about it, after giving my resignation to this 2nd employer I continued to work at the same client on behalf of new employer and that it self is against the contract that I signed which my current employer reminded to me at that time and even now...& and based on that it might back fire on me from 2nd employer and asked me to decide if its worth of fighting or let it go........
any comments or suggestions please!!

FBI Name Checks Latest
Immigration Daily's recent comment (11/30/07 ID) on the status of FBI name check delays resulted in the following response from USCIS Office of Communications Bill Wright:
Immigration Daily's 11/30/07 comment, "FBI Delays to End," is not telling the entire story. USCIS and the FBI are working together to process name checks as quickly as possible without compromising security or public safety. To this end, we have examined the existing name check system and acted to address the problem through two strategies: (1) first, USCIS and the FBI conducted a joint risk assessment which resulted in process improvements that permit us to focus on cases of concern (2) second, USCIS and FBI have allocated additional resources to the process. Over the next year, USCIS is planning to commit a total of $15.5 million to address the backlog of FBI name checks. Please note, however, USCIS continues to require FBI name checks for the same categories of applications and no case will be approved without a cleared name check. We will continue to work with the FBI to reduce waiting times; but, not at the expense of national security and public safety.
Separately, Immigration Daily has learned that USCIS expects a 40% reduction in FBI name check delays by year-end. This reduction will be achieved largely through the allocation of additional resources and a more streamlined process. This information supports DHS Secretary Chertoff's earlier statement that applications that were previously ensnared in the name check delays will be cleared quickly. However, he cautioned that a small number of checks will still be delayed by investigations.

Everything filled up including masters degree H1. All big lotto
WASHINGTON � U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced today that it has received enough H-1B petitions to meet the congressionally mandated cap for fiscal year 2009. USCIS has also received more than 20,000 H-1B petitions filed on behalf of persons exempt from the cap under the �advanced degree� exemption. Before running the random selection process, USCIS will complete initial data entry for all filings received during the filing period ending on April 7, 2008. Due to the high number of petitions, USCIS is not yet able to announce the precise day on which it will conduct the random selection process.
USCIS will carry out the computer-generated random selection process for all cap-subject petitions received. USCIS will select the number of petitions needed to meet the caps of 65,000 for the general category and 20,000 under the �advanced degree� exemption limit. USCIS will reject, and return filing fees for all cap-subject petitions not randomly selected, unless found to be a duplicate. USCIS will handle duplicate filings in accordance with the interim final rule published on March 24, 2008 in the Federal Register.
The agency will conduct the selection process for �advanced degree� exemption petitions first. All �advanced degree� petitions not selected will be part of the random selection process for the 65,000 limit.

I'm sorry to hear this...Its happened...
if you really wanna bring your employer to lime light..prepare yourself..first....Remember..its your life here...anyone[including me) can give free suggestion here ....
There is no use working with this kind of Employer anymore...so my advice is switch to another employer[Good One] before you react to this...Make sure you pretend as if you are not aware of this and get the best out of him before you leave...once you r done...then show who is he to the outside world...
I'm sure you be having atleast mail proof...[If not ditch the plan of suing and move on with your next opportunity]....take some time and prepare all the possible proof...hire a good lawyer....File a case against the attorney in the local law chamber where the attorney is practising....they will definely call you to settle the case...make sure you record it as the proof[if you don't have one already ::)].....
Then hit the employer...make sure you ask a collosal sum through your attorney[Never give chances]....and then post his name and details in the Immigration blogs....
You lost one of the major milestone in your life...never give up this time....
Best of luck

No. You cannot get bachelors in india with 14 years.
The Diploma route for bachelors is this...
10+3(diploma)+3(bachelors).
For some other schools
10+3(diploma)+4(bachelors).
So in effect, the diploma route also puts you in 16 years / 17 years for Bachelors of Eng.
It might be extremely difficult to claim 14 years equivalent as US bachelors.
-Morchu
Ummm.. I did not know that one can do a diploma after 10th grade in India and after that, a year to get bachelors? You are right... its not very clear from the original post.. and can easily be misinterpreted as (10+2+3+1) which is 16 years of education.
OP, could you please confirm if this is the case with your background.

Why are we rambling on and on about this? There is absolutely no connection between India buying fighter jets and immigration. That was what the OP wanted to know. If the immigration processes will get affected because India excluded Boeing and Lockheed. There seems to be no connection between the two issues. Period.

Please don't open your mouth...it really really stinks :)
the expression of empathy should be appreciated, not berated. Illegal or not, these are still people who are affected - and in this case children. And, its difficult to see any kids suffer for anything no matter what their background is.

Please refrain from pushing OP to post employer details on public forum. Let it be OP�s weapon of surprise. I wish OP has contacted an attorney for fighting his case. If this is going to be an out of court settlement, then we shouldn�t expect complete details as well. OP's story should be an eye opener for all of us(Employees and Employers).

Thanks Arihant. Yes it is strange and I am trying to find their ulterior motive behind this. All the while I thought my employer is not one of the typical desi employers (read blood sucking) we hear about in this forum. Hope I am right.
By the way, my question was related to AC21 (after 180 days of filing 485). If I quit my current employer and join another company, how would I let USCIS know to forward all their RFEs to my new employer/lawyer and not to the old one. Am asking this because I heard the I-9 form we fill while changing employment is only for the employer and he doesn't forward it to anybody. Does my query make any sense at all or am I just blabbering BS :o
But, I will try to answer based on what I think you are asking.
If you just want to apply for EAD/AP for yourself on your own, then that is fine. You will get all communications relating to your EAD/AP application directly to you.
For the applications being filed by the lawyer, one G-28 form is filed with each application. So, you would have one for your 485, your wife's 485, your wife's EAD and your wife's AP. There will be no G-28 for your EAD/AP as you would not have filed it through your lawyer. There will be bno G-28 for your EAD and AP as you are filing yourself.
BTW, it is strange that they will do your wife's EAD/AP and not yours!

I don�t think he will have any standing against you in court of law. If you have ur documentation strong then nothing to worry. He is just trying to give you hard time. Even if he does so take him to all levels, I am sure at the end of day you will not loose anything but he may get burned by this. File all claims like harrasment; Unethical practices to run business and more if attorney suggested doing so.Just be strong and cool ......

I dont think we could expect such thing from our community as we are born selfish and scared of things. Everone is just hoping that some miracle will happen and everyone will get their GCs. Or else people are happy with EAD/h1b renewals.We really lack the kind of leadership and atitude we had before independece both at home in india and here.I think people have made immigration problems as part of the many problems they have in their lives.
Leave alone ABCDs, Vinodh Khosla ka Ghosla, or Jindals or all the big shots ATA or TANA.
For a moment - lets look at our own community that is affected.
For all those who are not affected - this may seem a non issue except for universities, hospitals, and companies like MSFT etc.. where competition and talent is of high importance and where talent cannot be compromised and this mess is affecting them - it is OONLY these people who will support us and that too, they press more on h1b rather than green cards because they want man power and dont mind if it is h1b or GC. For an avg desi or any immigrant who is looking for a h1b, he has NO clue about this mess and will be glad to embrace the H1b quota increase and OPT extensions as everyone think GC is not an issue these days.
For a moment - look at the community that is affected - people like us. WE have to be on top of this. The backlogs seem to be close to a million and look at the number of people trying to do something about the situation. Anti immigrants paint us in bad light, media confuses our issues and writes rubbish, Lou Dobbs makes baseless comments and everyone in our community does nothing but trying to track EAD etc... A handful of people make phone calls, a handful send letters, a handful help IV. Others just sit and watch and pretend they don't know anything. When we make request to join state chapters very few join. Out of that very few actively participate in activities. When IIV asks people to enter a correct profile - very few do it.
Things will improve ONLY of the entire community stands up on their own without expecting others to do something for them
