am sick of these indians acting as is USCIS owes them GC..
Nope, I don't think the USCIS "owes me a GC". All they owe me is a reasonably quick response to my application.
Either approve it and let me move on with my plans for the future such as buying a home, etc, or deny it and let me move back to India. I have too much time and efforts invested (in my career here and in the GC process) to just give up and go back home...
Now let me tell you what I am sick of:
- I'm sick of paying social security taxes that I won't see a penny of if I don't stay here. It is thousands of dollars down the drain for me and thousands of others like me.
- I am sick of standing in the GC queue for 4+ years and not seeing the process move through even two stages of the GC, while I have friends with exactly the same qualifications zoom through theirs in 1.5 years. I am sick of not getting any explanation of this from the INS. I am sick that in the "highly developed" US, an agency with probably billions of dollars in grants doesn't seem to understand what First-In-First-Out means. I am sick of the fact that the INS is not answerable to anyone for it's erratic behavior.
- I am sick of knowing that in spite of having worked hard for the last 9+ years, having paid tens of thousands of dollars in taxes, having spend few thousand in immigration, having contributed to the economy with my skills, I will not see a GC for a few more years. I am sick of knowing that at the same time, there will be others who will sneak in over a fence at night, live here a few years on stolen or fraudulent SSNs and then be awarded amnesty and a GC for their "hardships". I am sick that the govt knows about these problems and looks the other way just because they need the cheap labor to build more roads and homes, mow lawns and do the work that the US citizens themselves would rather not do.
And I could go on...
GO BACK TO INDIA..
