Q: Why should we push lads in to world quota?
A: To speed up lads application for PR;
   To save China quota for LC.
Q: How about to restrict lads in certain China's categories so that LC will
   not be hurt?
A: You never know which categories LC will use;
   You can not regulate which categories Lads should apply.
Q: By using EB3 only, LC will not be hurt, it that true?
A: No.
   To qualify for a PR under Employement Based Categories, you must have a Job.
   The job has to meet certain requiremnts:
   1) Salary; 2);Qualification of the applicant for that job;
   3) no USC or PR with that qualification can be found;
   4) the boss is willing to sponsor you.
   Say, you see a Ad. in a paper. It requires M.S., offers 3k. After fierce
   competition, you get the job, and you boss is willing to sponsor you.
   You think you meet all the above, and file for PR under EB2. You are sure
   that your American dream comes true.
   Well. INS finds out, with 2), the guideline of INS says the minimum salary
   acceptable for USC and PR is 4k, that is why you get the offer
   (unfortunately, that is ussualy true). So your PR application is rejected.
   Then you are left with two choices (a) increase 1) to 4k, (b) lower 2) to
   B.S. By doing 1), the new ad. attractes 400 USC and PR applicants, so you
   are out of the game; or, you pay tax for 4k income while your salary is
   still 3k. (you have to do so until you get your PR). Then doing 2) is the
   best choice. At this time, you find EB3 is full of lads. You must wait 4
   years for your turn under EB3, but your H-1 expires in 3 years and you
   can not extend it any more. So both EB2 and EB3 are no good for you and
   you are lossing time. Then you find a girl/boy who agrees to marry you
   and help you out. At this point, you suddenly find out, the family based
   category are full of lads too. You are queued for 4 years. And
   unfortunately, your marriage does not last that long. Is that too late
   for you to find out the truth and real impact of lads problem?
If you have read through World Journal's Immigration Section for years and
have friends who went through PR process, you will know it is not so simple
and you might think twice now.

Some major developments will screw you up even worse.

1) Illegal immigrants under CSPA may be able to apply PR.
   (see recent reports on World Journal)
2) Illegal immigrants came after 4/11/90 may convince INS they came before
   that date and INS is hopelessly incapable of screening them out.
3) People from other countries can claim they are PRC nationals under CSPA.
4) Sluggish economy prevents you from finding a decent job.
5) There are many other interest groups who want to utilize CSPA to make big
   bucks. American Immigration Lawyers Association is eager to help illegal
   immigrants to apply under CSPA. Estimated tens of thousands illegal
   immigrants means billions of dollars, and that is good for them.
6) There are many other interest groups who want to keep lads out of
   world-quota to save for their own ethnic groups.
7) etc. etc...

With lads jammed in China's quota, you will have to  ....  Scared?

A checklist of what you can do

1) Kill CSPA -----------------------------> Too late. It is the law.          No
2) Kick lads out of the game -------------> Impossible. It is against the law.No
3) Jump into the race now ----------------> Impossible if you are in school.  No
4) Wait until you graduate ---------------> Too late to do anything.          No
5) Support IFCSS to lobby for world-quota-> It is up to you                  Yes
6) Persuade American Immigration Lawyers Association to lobby for world-quota.
   That means billions of dollars for them.---> It is up to you              Yes

Wake up, my LC brothers and sisters! Support IFCSS and lads network to push
for world quota!
