India does have deduction from your paycheck: its the EPF/ PF (Employee Provident Fund/ Provident Fund).
You can manage your own pension fund - its called the PPF.
EPF/PF don't allow withdrawals until you retire (i think its driven by age - 62years for men; 55 for women - but i'm guessing here)
Its not the same as social security. Its a little bit better because you pay for your own retirement and not for anyone elses.

My employer applied in PP and it was approved. details are give below.
Date of mailing -1/23( i presume must have used Fedex overnight)
Date of recipt/acknowledgement- 1/24
Date of approval- 2/4( online)
Date of approval email sent - 2/4
The only hitch was that they applied for 3 years extension based on 140 approval and even thougt 485 is filed the PD is not current,but got approval for 1 year only . The problem here i think is that i am completing 5 years oh H1B in feb 2008 so they extended only for 1 year till feb 2009 . Anyway that what you get when u ask your HR to file rather than have an attorney file ot handle the case. I had requested them to have an attorney handle the case but they gave me assurances that they will handle it and will do it in PP. Now i am sure they are repenting as i dont expect my GC approval for next 2 ot 3 years and now they got to shell out 1500 buck for extension every year or atleast for the next year when they retry for a 3 year extension in feb 2009.i had a word with my HR she said she is going to inquire with USCIS and discuss the case with attorney on what ground they offered one year extension and not 3 year

This was published in March 2006 on Murthy. May be some (monkey) from USCIS read it recently ;).
Chandu, here I found the LINK (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_porret.html)
"When explaining the risk of potentially stricter AC21 regulations to I-485 applicants, we are frequently asked, "If I change jobs under AC21 and the regulations are released after that, they won't apply to me, right?" Unfortunately, this is not correct. While it is not possible to predict the content or effective date of any future regulations, they will likely apply at the time of adjudicating the I-485 application, and not just when the job change occurs. In a hypothetical example, if new regulations were to limit the percentage of acceptable salary difference, or prevent multiple portings, the officer adjudicating the I-485 could decide that the job change violates the regulations, even if the change occurred months or years before the new regulations were issued."

Did you file for I-485? If so, what is the address mentioned in the I-485 application? If it is US address, then you should be residing at that address.
I-485 application indicates that beneficiary is residing in the USA and applying for adjustment of status.
_______________________
Not a legal advice.
US Citizen of Indian Origin
The address on 485 is a US address. I was in Jersey City when my firm applied for 485. However, subsequent to 180 days of filing, I transferred to Detroit practive with the same firm. And, I provided my cousin's address in Detroit where I lived temporarily. Subsequent to that, I moved to Windsor, Canada, because it is a nicer place to live.
I did consult with my attorney at that time, and she suggested that it is fine for me to live in Canada.
Your suggestions?

Eb3India,
You make very good points.
Actually a lot of folks who are beyond 6 years are themselves to blame to some extent. We did not realize that its a long process and the sooner you start the better it is.
Here's the deal. The GC process takes 4 years on average if you are from India/China. Some ppl get it it in 3 years. Some get it in 5 years. The systems is built in a way that it has to take at least 3 years. Back when labor processing used to take 2 years (1yr state + 1yr federal), the rest took 1-2 years. Now labor is really fast and the dates are retrogressed.
So, now it will take 6 months to get labor and then 2+ years of waiting for dates to become current then processing for 1 year. So about 4 years.
Off course some of us got the short end of the stick when cases got shipped to BEC's and labor took 4 instead of 2 years. and then some people are stuck in retrogression after getting out of BEC's. Its all about knowing the entire game before getting into it. I kick myself for not starting the process sooner.
So, your options are 1) Labor subs 2) Go to India and come back as L1 3) Fight the system 4) Do nothing and wait.
look I have been here for 10 years and I kick my self everyday for not getting card, if I played my cards right I should have been worrying about citizenship now :)
many of are here for good reasons of our own deed and situations which are beyound our control, 9/11, immigration politics etc. the best way to get around this either to follow some lope hole such as labor subst, L1 etc, or fight the system thru IV, or just simply wait,
complaining that someone else is getting greencard is nothing but childesh and I hate to say this as it comes from a "Highly educated" guy like who did is MS from US :D

A lot of times.. companies use this bugaboo of job desc etc.. Those that want to promote you badly enough will find a way.. First of all.. What your job title is v/s what labor is filed under is not directly related.. Secondly you can have matrix responsibilities that span across 2 bands etc.. So lot of times it's an excuse to not have to let you down hard way.. always easier to blame on that "damn immigration queue"

They are requesting contract from a specific client?
Then I would produce that.. As I mentioned in previous posts, I also attached other offers and contracts I had from before.
Also lawyer wrote 1 letter specifically addressing the work location and nature point, which had client name, contract, and info about job.
I don't remember seeing any specific time limit mentioned in that letter.
End client varification letter will help. In my case, we didn't attach it since it was too much hassle to get one.. but lawyer wanted to add it if we could get it..
We had total 4 client contracts with my name on it.
plus 10 other contracts for work without anyone's name on it.. since we do projects not staffing only we could do that..
Hi zCool,
I got RFE and summary of text is as below.
Asking for
1. Contract from the client in charlotte, nc
(but after applying h1b extn, i moved to CA)
2. W-2 for 2006,2007
I got #2.
for #1, we are planning to send old contract for charlotte,nc client and new contract in CA client.
Do we need to send end client 'project verification letter' or something like that ?.
Thanks a lot.

If company is promoting and Apply for EB2, then the PD should be Promotion Date. Because EB2 qualification starts only after promotion. One cannot go back and get old PD and attach it to EB2 after promotion. That is unfair to people, who are already promoted and applied before. Hope this makes sense.
Everything is fair in love and war.
But this should be neither , and the law allows porting. So if any body gets a chance to port, he should take it.
AND BY THE WAY. GC IS FOR A FUTURE JOB,SO DATE OF PROMOTION HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
SO I WOULD SAY THAT THE CONCEPT OF PRIORITY DATE IS VAGUE.IF U ARE IN INDIA, AND YOU PLAN TO MOVE TO US , IN 10 YEARS, A COMPANY IN THE US CAN APPLY FOR YOUR GC TODAY, SO THAT YOU CAN GET A GC IN INDIA , AND THEN MOVE HERE TO DO THAT JOB IN 10 YEARS.

This is absolutely no-sense at all.
Texas, take about 2-3 months to approve 140 and 485. While Nebraska take about 4-5 months to approve only 140. This is not included 485 that back up from December 2, 2005.
You compare about 2-3 month processing time from one Center and another 1 year from another service center.
People there don't know how to do the mathematic or what, why keep sending everything to Nebraska still. Why don't transfer from the last person in Nebraska to Texas and have Texas start processing 485 in Queued.
We don't want people get process by Luck! or by paying more money and left other people behind.
What you think?!:mad:

Yes
2. If I am a GC holder living in India?
No (Yes if the person resides is in the US while claiming SS benefits)
3. I am neither a US citizen nor a GC holder living in India?
No (Yes if the person resides is in the US while claiming SS benefits)
Even with 40 credits it is not possible for Indian nationals to get SS payments in India. If you look at the rules closely on the SSA website, there is no simple way to get benefits paid in India unless you are a US Citizen. You must be present in the US for that
