You should call the college you are interested in or applying to and speak to the financial aid office they would be able to guide you. I know in Florida you do not get financial aid if you are on H-4. You should also try and get scholarships from the colleges or if the State of Georgia has any scholarships which may help lower the cost.

Did you get your denial papers, there is a date mentioned in the denial papers, you will have to respond within that date to appeal your case with supporting documents if the case is denied in ERROR (they give reasons in denial letter). If you don't respond the case is denied forever.
Also remember one thing you can't have two PERM applications open for the same company, same position and ofcourse same person. I had to withdraw my appeal to file a new PERM. some people here seem to be lucky to get perm in 2 months but for me it always took around 10 to 11 months. I lost 10 months in appeal and 2 months for withdrawal. so better decide what you would like to do.
Other option, which i am not sure is legal (or valid) would be to appeal the case and when the case status changes to pending file for H1b extension. In the mean time look if some consulting company can file PERM for you externally, if you get that PERM approved you can transfer your H1b... I mean it is easier for us to advice.. and i totally understand what you must be going through.. I was just thinking what options are open.
It would be very helpful if the option "to appeal the case, if rules were followed correctly, and extend the H1b while the appeal is pending".
Could you post what was the reason stated for the denial? Was your perm under audit?

All, Section 502 of Specter's bill strikes out Paragraph (a)(5) of 8 USC 1152 completely. This paragraph says that EB immigrants of each category are not subject to country quotas when additional visas are available. For instance, if EB2 visas are available, EB2 alone will not be subject to country quota. There is now no distinction between EB and FB immigrants. Country quotas will be applied strictly in each EB category and unused numbers will fall through to the next EB category.
However, in general, paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3) do say that country quotas will not apply when additional visas are available. All the unused EB1-3 visas when country quotas are applied, will now fall through to EB5 unskilled category. From additional language in Specter's markup, it appears that the EB5 unskilled workers are now defined as special immigrants, not subject to a country quota. So all the unused EB1-3 visas, after country quotas are applied, will now be used by special unskilled immigrants.
Here is the text from Specter's markup section 503, language re: unskilled workers. "Visas will be made available in a number not exceeding 30% of worldwide total, plus any visas not required for classes mentioned in paragraphs (1) through (4)...."
Here are paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3) from 8 USC 1152.
(2) Per country levels for family-sponsored and employment-based immigrants
Subject to paragraphs (3), (4), and (5), the total number of immigrant visas made available to natives of any single foreign state or dependent area under subsections (a) and (b) of section 1153 of this title in any fiscal year may not exceed 7 percent (in the case of a single foreign state) or 2 percent (in the case of a dependent area) of the total number of such visas made available under such subsections in that fiscal year.
(3) Exception if additional visas available
If because of the application of paragraph (2) with respect to one or more foreign states or dependent areas, the total number of visas available under both subsections (a) and (b) of section 1153 of this title for a calendar quarter exceeds the number of qualified immigrants who otherwise may be issued such a visa, paragraph (2) shall not apply to visas made available to such states or areas during the remainder of such calendar quarter.
Here is the existing paragraph (a)(5) from 8 USC 1152, that is to be deleted. The paragraphs (1)..(5) of 8 USC 1153 (b) refer to the various EB categories, and in totality, it means that EB1 from the Rest of the World get first crack at unused EB1 after country quotas are applied, EB2 from ROW get first crack at unused EB2 after country quotas are applied etc.
(5) Rules for employment-based immigrants
(A) Employment-based immigrants not subject to per country limitation if additional visas available
If the total number of visas available under paragraph (1), (2), (3), (4), or (5) of section 1153 (b) of this title for a calendar quarter exceeds the number of qualified immigrants who may otherwise be issued such visas, the visas made available under that paragraph shall be issued without regard to the numerical limitation under paragraph (2) of this subsection during the remainder of the calendar quarter.
(B) Limiting fall across for certain countries subject to subsection (e) of this section
In the case of a foreign state or dependent area to which subsection (e) of this section applies, if the total number of visas issued under section 1153 (b) of this title exceeds the maximum number of visas that may be made available to immigrants of the state or area under section 1153 (b) of this title consistent with subsection (e) of this section (determined without regard to this paragraph), in applying subsection (e) of this section all visas shall be deemed to have been required for the classes of aliens specified in section 1153 (b) of this title.
However, in general, paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3) do say that country quotas will not apply when additional visas are available. All the unused EB1-3 visas when country quotas are applied, will now fall through to EB5 unskilled category.

Bumping up an old and useful post for new members.
Some of the details about CIR need to be updated but rest of the information is quite useful
New Members! Welcome!
Glad to see you here! This is the place of professionals gathered for a great cause. Definitely has NO entertainment contents to download, but this is the place for professionals to discuss our Green Card fate in USA (for high skilled LEGAL immigrants), it's driven solely by it's members.
There are lot of things happening here, let me put a question/answer format so that you all can quickly skim through this.
1. What is immigration voice (IV) organization all about?
ImmigrationVoice.org - About Immigration Voice (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5&Itemid=47) (About us link)
2. Ok, what are the problems they are dealing right now?
IV org is like having IV (intravenous fluid) to the people struck in the backlog of GC processing
ImmigrationVoice.org - FAQs (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=category§ionid=3&id=7&Itemid=25) (FAQ link)
Hey did you read how the bill become law and why lobbying is the only means of hope now from the above link?
3. Who are the Core members of the IV org?
Believe me these are one of the people struck in the backlog but wanted to make change in the system in the immigration system with the latest techniques of lobbying and media, etc instead of the traditional way of thinking (When would I get my number)
ImmigrationVoice.org - Immigration Voice Team (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=57&Itemid=49)
4. I think I got something now. What is the current issue that my friends are furious about?
ok, Since 12000 people are being part of the org now, I'm sure all the new members (including me) think that something is smoking! Here is the fresh news.
ImmigrationVoice.org - Web Links (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_weblinks&catid=19&Itemid=27)
Senate has introduced a bill on immigration from their side called Comprehensive immigration Reform (CIR, you can see people sometimes refer as CIRcus in the forum, because too much is going on in this bill). The House has already come up with it's version of the bill STRIVE act 2007. So you can see info on that too. But let us concentrate on the CIR as it's harming us to the core than the benefits provided by STRIVE bill. Simple example is Extending your H1B is a ding dong bell! sounds funny or threatening!, yes if it's funny then your legal staus is on doll drums buddy! I am serious, not kidding, I swear!......
So this the main area you will find yourself coming often from now on.

The main CIR bill interpretation and review is here; believe me our guys have sweated day and night to grow this thread! I totally respect their hard works!

These all will be in the home page , right side, Blue "Action Alerts" ( see for your self ImmigrationVoice.org - Home (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php) )
o.k want to become a volunteer? there are statewide chapters running. Here is the info
ImmigrationVoice.org - Immigration Voice State Chapters (http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=72&Itemid=52)

Honestly no one knows for sure. With the new congress with democrats in power, the chances have certainly increased that something may happen in 2007. However, it's next to impossible to predict any timeframe with any more precision than that.
After July 2007, there is no way the Dems can avoid a discussion on immigration. This is according to my sources.

Get another attorney. Your attorney obviously doesn't know the basics of EB or is trying to get you in EB3 so he can keep extracting fees from you for years to come. Given that yr Vietnamese, if you file in EB2 you will get a GC in months. After that he can't take any more fees from you.
Filing in EB2 or EB3 depends on the job requirement and not the candidate. If the job requires a Masters Degree or bachelors+4 years experience, then EB2 can be filed. Whether that experience is US or otherwise is irrelevant. Besides, if you have been working in NJ for 3 years, how is that not US experience? Is your experience is determined by the race/nationality of the people who own the company or the
the place where you were working?
My company filed for my EB2 successfully when I had around 3 yrs experience. The job required a Masters degree, and that's why they filed in EB2.

Immigration Gurus and IV policy makers:
I was wondering if something like Visa recapture or revoking country quota, could be added as an addendum to healthcare bill.
Can the hispanic senators be coaxed into supporting something like this since it will be beneficial to them as well if and when CIR becomes a reality?
if there is still any life left in healthcare bill...... visa recapture & country quota removal will be the last nail in the coffin of healthcare bill..... gutierrez & hispanic caucus will then surely vote against healthcare...... they will argue that not only have they not gotten any assurance from the administration for doing cir..... but other immigration provisions r being to the bill......

Even though the dates are current they will not approve all the applications.
They will keep some applicants for Ransom for their business (USCIS) to run.
I have seen lot of approvals April 2006 and May 2006 applicants got their GC's that just for the auditing purpose for the Senate committees.
