I think as with all certifications, the effort you put into getting the certification teaches you a lot. It is debatable as to if the certificate itself has any value. It is kind of like going to college, the degree just gives a 3rd party assertion that you did what you say you did.
I must admit that I have not maintained my PMP certification and it has lapsed over the last two years. I just found it very utopian and not very practical. Maybe that is the way it is designed to be. I also got my PMP after spending 5 years successfully rolling out two CMM level 5 assesments and one ISO 9001 certification for my employers. PMP for me was just a way of having someone endorse me and my skills. Over time I found it to be relatively useless unless you hang out at the various PMI meets to do some effective networking.
If you are a project lead, or someone stepping up to a managerial level, this could really give you a big boost, an endorsement of your life experiences and skills. If you have already been a PM in a CMM5 or ISO9001 organization, you probably already follow most of the best practices and the PMP can't add much more to your life.

You should be able to tell by checking if your checks have cleared. I understand they may be company issued checks, as in my case, but make a friend in accounting and they will tell you. Forget HR or lawyer. That's what i did.
I understand...those that are calling USCIS have no other way of finding out if their receipts were issued, their Lawyer / EMployers may not even let them know...
So they call to see if USCIS may be able to lookup their case by Last name or something......

u know what, gcseeker2002 is correct to the dot. we do not need a transit visa while coming thru germany in lufthansa. no one even mentions that word. i called and emailed the german consulate b4 i flew out of US, all people including german consulate, travel agent (2 of them),, mentioned that i require it and still i travelled back without it. no one mentioned that word. trust me guys, u wont require it, i just came 10 days ago just with AP.
NOTE : I also recd such emails from German consulate.
Hey gcseeker2002, after 300+ postings also how can you post such a thing.
This is new rule implemented and by thinking you as senior if someone goes and faces problem will you be responsible. So please don't do this boss.
To All Who believe no need to have valid VISA while going back to India or their country.
This is email got from German Consulate at Washington DC to my collegue.
German Cosulate Rep at DC: You wrote that your visa for the United States already expired in September 2010. Therefore you do not fall under Exception Nr. 2. This exception is meant for persons travelling to the US holding a valid US-visa (e.g. a visitors visa with one entry) on their way travelling to the US (Exception 1) and travelling back to their home country during the validity dates of this same visa, but already having used it for entering the US (Exception2) . I hope this clarifies your additional question. I suggest that you apply for an Airport Transit Visa as soon as possible to avoid any problems when travelling back to India via Frankfurt airport.

Got approval and card on time! Collectively everything worked out. Got EAD for 2 years.
There was talk about combining EAD and AP - did it happen and how does one file for it?

The dream act is an awesome legislation, my dad was one who sent his application for I-485 and it was received on the 2nd of july. However, due to the July visa fiasco he is stuck like the rest of you guys. My point is rather that I aged out in June 2007 and could not be added with my family, for the month of July. I would receive benefits because this would put me out of status as well...also children of illegals are still children. They are not illegal because they did not choose the right to come here but came without any knowledge. So Please everyone take your time to call your respective senators and email them. You can find the names and numbers of your respective senators on the link below...

amitjoey, Thanks. I have sent a request to my senator yesterday and also mailed them all the copies of the documents. Just hoping that will also help. I was told that my file is already assigned to an IO and you will soon hear from USCIS. "Soon" in USCIS dictionary seems to be 30 to 45 days and thats very scary s that means it will about 130 days. I am just hoping they will approve soon. After approving it seems they are taking additonal 30 days to print the card.

Brush up your General Knowledge, look around you. If you see, there is a priority date on my post - Infy does not sponspor GC's, atleast not with those priority dates in EB2 category. Can you deduce what that implies?
You are thinking only about the small percentage of "lost Indians" (including me) who are in this mess - if you really think about your motherland (and mine), help guys like NRN get a good infrastructure in place. By ridiculing him, what are you trying to say? had you been in his place, what would you have done? Settle here immediately, and launch a daily "freighter" to bring all Indians to US? What desh bhakti!
tonyHK12 rightly said - "look around" - dont get blinded sitting in front of the computer with just one site to visit ;) Look at the good things that someone does, take the positive things out of everything, respect every being - that is what the religions say - if you really believe in one. Wake up buddy - may God bless you!
BTW, if you ask the Hindu "pundits", it is not a religion at all, its more than just a religion!
Yeah... very good, now there is two.... this is the proof why EB is not moving or why there is no unity. Keep on arguing and disunite that is the usual desi NRI habit. especially people in USA.
Brush your GK about Hindu religion.. and this word is just phrased by a Irish Padri just to fool Hindus and you become a trap of it.. I pity Wake up and dont be in a fools world!

mike – what about some of the corporation r not american corp.
donna – it doesn’t matter. ha ha
mike – indian corporation is hiring indians,
donna – that’s right, but doesn’t matter where they come from, we have to tell that they r taking away from
what will happen is that they will cease to exist. tata has not applied for 1 h1b.
kevin – they get people on company2company transfer
donna – because durbin bill hit the nerve, that essentially, h1b is dead in water, now l1 is being scrutinized by uscis, so actually, these cos have to hire locally
we have to laying down tracks for – that the bypass of us citizens and gc holder creates the culture of exploitation – this is our version of best & brightest.
if you look at our opposition – best & brightest, remain competitive, so this is, i think we have really strong chance to stay on message. democrats are articulate but can’t stay on the message, but we can. i meant it people.
btw, compete america, gave up on job posting for 30 days from durbin bill. durbin bill not allow h1b on client site, so have to place americans on 3rd party cites, and 30 days to post a job on dol site for us. it’s the academic arena will choke, and there will be so many jobs for us in academic arena.
kevin –schumer idiot thinks rich people wall street but we in it cannot make more than 40,000.
barbara – someone will say 30 days – that will stop our mission critical project
donna – no it won’t happen compete america, gave up on job posting for 30 days, because we were able to fight back, and we r in a strong position. we have to push for our agenda to strengthen our position.
kevin – on durbin bill, who will testify in the committee hearing
donna – nobody knows
kevin – the message is fragmented, donna the first one to say, get on to the message
donna – the players and politicos, who will talk about this, there is a big group who called me last week,
barbara – yes, we r fertilizing the soil.
donna - there is a republican who wrote this book – who said – its not what we say its what they hear. when we say after labor day – we are fighting for our right to compete for the jobs – the unions around the country will go wow, say anything that we have to defeat them.
kevin – we put this on internet it will stay forever and people will see it.
donna – someone in dean campaign, is interested in helping us
kevin – we have to get sound bites on the news, mostly its ron hira or kim berry
mike – one can
donna – a large organization will put me in 1 of the hearing. let’s guarantee that, by showing our level of sophistication. so target h1b only wants ads, companies are recruiting abroad for american jobs.
have to checkout now, have to head out, thanks everyone, bye guys.
if we play our cards right, we maybe able to get our contingent for the hearing. well great, i’ll do it next september.
alright bye bye.

Nah, I don't think so. Not a good article.
1. His salary CAN be raised.
i don't claim to know the answer here.
2. His wife CAN work, as article mentions that he applied for GC in 2004
If he is EB3 india, that may have been true till very recently
3. I never heard about 1 million - I guess we were talking about 140000 unused visas right? Where this 1 million came from?
the article quotes the Kauffman Foundation report. Please read it. There are about 1 million applicants waiting at various stages
4. If the company is bought - one doesn't generally reapply for GC.
maybe generally true, we don't know it's untrue for him though.
Even little lies don't serve a good cause as this article can be easily discredited.
i don't see any "lies" in this article. sound fine to me.
