H4 dreamers and future prospects

I am in GC limbo myself with a non-USC child - not too different a situation from yours. One option already suggested - is to make a clean break - and go back ASAP. The other may be to hope for the best - but prepare for the worst. * Talk frankly with your 10 yr old - and make sure they want this ...

Hedging Employee stock options

Work at a small public company; have vested stock options in the money and 7 years left before they expire. Don't want to cash out everything and miss out on possible future appreciation - nor do I want to wait till the end and end up with nothing (think dot-com bust). I am considering selling a ...

Completed 11 years after R2I

[QUOTE=RRS;673243]RH, But if you are a non-resident alien or even GC holder, mere elibility will not suffice. You need to live in US to collect payment. SSA allows abroad payments only for US citizens. [/QUOTE] I used to think so too - but apparently Indians can receive SS payments while residing in ...

Las Vegas Mass shooting - 58 killed and 500 injured

There will be a few days of some folks saying "gun control" - and other folks saying "guns don't kill people - people kill people". Chances are nothing will change - and this is just a reality US will have to live with.

Kids second language concerns - workaround

Given the "winds of change" here I'm concerned the GC thing might not work out. Interviews are now mandatory - and if the wrong kind of immigration reform passes , I could be kicked to the back - or even out of the line. I'm seriously considering starting my kid (6th grader) on being able to read ...
