Sent Emails...

Thanks everyone !

i agree.. thats being professional and ethical..

Yes, but I won't be surprised if the USCIS lawyers interpret the law to suit their convenience. And even worse, the judge buys it.

Thanks,

Up until July 29, 2007 (incl.) when sorting of files was going on, NSC did a load sharing of files with TSC. (and btw they did not look at where ones' I-140 is adjudicated when making the selection, it was random. I know several such cases)

This in my opinion is a very good way of making sure adjudicating resources are kept in balance at both centers.
Like somone quiet rightly pointed out it is akin to the old Labor Certification process where some states were way faster than others (less demand faster process).

In the direct filing which started July 30, 2007 the load sharing has a great possibilty of being tilted one way or the other (though maybe not as much as old LC's). They have made a geographical distribution and not one that factors # of applications traditionally received from states.

On the other hand, may be USCIS has figured that the particular geographical jurisdiction produces the right load sharing between NSC and TSC!

CA and NY were the two states which were always backlogged during those bad old days of labor processing. Now, CA application goes to TSC and NY goes to NSC and that might keep both the centers balanced going forward.

But I think rather than dividing based on the states, they should rather do a load balancing based on the request coming..just like our network works :)
Load balancing can be simply based on the round robin fashion..one goes to TSC other goes to NSC and so on.
How difficult is to build that kind of system and to keep it balanced and fair for all.

Received the Cards - My case details and email sequence updated at - http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=20706

This is the latest USCIS scheme (read SCAM)!!

Accept everything but issue notices at a snail's pace citing the "fee increase" as the reason for "front log" (btw what the heck is a FRONT LOG???)

Until you dont receive the notices you cant avail of the benefits anyways. In the meantime, without any notice they change processing times and take away interim benefits as they see fit.

Correct me if i am wrong but is the situation improving or getting worse?

My husband also got welcome e-mail mentioning about ADIT processing but when he received his card there was no information regarding ADIT processing, should we do anything about it? We have no clue, please help!!!
Thanks,
Mita

When did you receive email and when did you receive your card ?

should we also try another vendor just to diversify the risk of this one deciding not to deliver. I will do some research to see which others a re available.

Any vendor and any flowers are fine! As long as the delivery date, address and the message are the same -

July 10th delivery

Addressed to:
Emilio T. Gonzalez
20 Massachusetts Avenue, NW
Washington, D.C. 20529

Phone number: 202-307-1565

"Sympathy" theme with the message - "All the best for future Employment Based visa estimates"

If our members can post links to other vendors and flowers it will be great! Less work for others!

Didn't Logfren ask that question to USCIS during last July?
no idea actually ..did she get a reply ? ..yes. I remember something like this was posted ..does anyone have the figures ? last year EB3 - I got 19,000 ..visas ..that is correct, right ?

I am happy to see some beginings here.. although we have had many many threads before for this kind of initiative but I see some difference here... Like some others said we need to draft an action plan from A to Z here (understood that it may not be exactly what we would be following over time but), we need some roadmap to follow to reach our target.

I like the idea of collecting info about who is willing to contribute and I am all for it.
btw, option 1 is not an option for me.

Did you noticed any LUD before check cashing as you got receipt from california. I filed on July 20 and no news yet.

Hi chunky,
I had mailed the application on 24th july to NSC, has a lud on TSC approved 140 on 28th , Do you kow wht it means,Thank you for your reply.

Earlier only two of my I-485 checks were cashed, now all my checks (EAD, FP, AP, I-485) for my dependants and me got cashed.
Will keep you guys updated on the progress.

Since these cases are seeing daylight, I have question about FP. Anyone who has got FP (only for cases if RN received after 9th oct )?

I am planning to travel in November hence worried. If you know approx FP dates please let me know.

Application received by R.Mickels on 07/02/07 at NSC ( I485/I131/I765), LUD on my I 140 on 07/28/07.My I 140 approved April 06. No receipts/ checks cashed. I m From NY,I think my application transfer to TSC.
Actually I had problem since my son will be 21 on July 24th, I hope i will get receipt date July 2nd.

I had a LUD on 7/28 and nothing after that... My I140 approved in Texas in April2006. I think we should get the receipt number here pretty soon...

I would sent some cactus if there were options to do that.:D


GUd one!!!LOL!!!

My attorney actually filed directly with TSC. So all my case numbers starts with SRC.

Is there any specific center we should be sending our 485 application. I have applied for I140 from Nebraska, can I apply for 485 in Texas...

I will definitely call senator's office and talk and even take appointment. For me the senators nearest office is 150 miles drive one way. But I will do that.
The House representitive's office is less than half a mile's drive. But he is a member of Toncredo's immigration caucus and it is plain useless to talk to them.

The highlighted message is the key to the next step.
At most times you are likely to get such automated responses and message would be ignored unless backed up by lobbying effort. Each campaign is carefully crafted and the strategy is based on our ongoing lobbying efforts.This is why we ask for a focused message and followup instead of sending junk emails (from online petitions) and thinking our work is done after hitting the submit button. It is a waste of time and energy and misleads the community in what they should be doing to get attention to their issues. Sending email is just one tiny step towards the advocacy work. Next step is to call the office and follow up about the email. Tell them you are not satisfied with such a response on an important issue. Tell them that you want to talk to someone about your letter and also wants to meet them in their office as you are a constituent and part of a national organization. Once you get the appointment, contact IV and we will guide you for the next steps.
