I am waiting.. and few more friends none of us got receipt. our checks got cashed on last Monday.

When do you think USCIS got your papers? (I mean add two days to your lawyers' filing date), and your check got cashed on 11th?

Firstly let me say that the Dems taking the house is the only hope I see for change near term. If the Republicans take it then they will feel vindicated on their stand and stick to it especially in view of the current unpopularity of Pres. Bush.

Democrats normally sing the tune of organised labour on such issues. Organised labour is clear that they want the immigrants that come not to be exploited. In otherwords, if you let them come then treat them well as they are now part of the labour pool. This idea has some intrinsic merit. If you analyse things, it is usually during the long drawn out protracted green card process that unscrupulous employers take the most advantage.

Indeed the deluge of illegals will be a blight on the processing times, however without visa numbers there is absolutely no hope for EB India in the near term anyway. We have to hope for the lesser of two evils now.

Sen Byron Dorgan is always on Lou Dobbs show. He does not represent the majority view of the democratic party. I think he is making all sorts of noises to fight for his political life.

Receipt# is printed on check after it's cashed.

In my case, my employer asked me to make checks payable to employer (for attorney fees as well as filing fees) and they cut the check for USCIS and attorneys. I don't understand how it helps them but delays in my getting the receipt#. If they let me pay directly to USCIS, I could at least get the receipt#s. My I-485 was received at NSC on 06/04/2007 morning.

Done.

I am starting this thread , as there is a thread for July 2nd filers only. This thread can be used for information on receipt number etc., for the I 485 filers who filed between July 17 - Aug 17th.

EAD for spouse and self, RD and ND June 18th, LUD on June 20th showing case pending,
LUD on July 29th and July 30th showing approved and card ordered.

My PD will be current in August.

Here is my USPS status so far , they are slow in updating than Fedex/UPS.

Its also true that for Next day delivery they charge $20-25 but Fedex/UPS charges $80-$100. Lets hope it actually reaches there.

Does anyone know how to figure out if USPS has received the packet? Site only tells that shipping info was received on Jun 29.

Visa Bulletin October 2009 (http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_4575.html)

My .02 cents.

Hey All,- I've not been that active, but will try to be hence forth. Below are my proposals to rephrase the present 'Flower Campaign" press release. I'm open to suggestions.

I felt the need to explain "why the over subscription and what part USCIS had in it" and also in the mean time point to the "overzealous work done by USCIS on June 30 and July 1st".

Sentence in the press release: However, due to over-subscription, thousands of highly-skilled workers, including engineers, scientists and health care professionals have been waiting patiently for years in order to be eligible to apply for their Green cards.

My take on this: Due to inefficiency of USCIS in the past years, 187,000+ visas have been wasted according to Ombudsman report. This act is to be blamed partly for the present scenario of over-subscription of thousands of law abiding and tax paying highly-skilled workers, including engineers, scientists and health care professionals who have been waiting patiently for years in order to be eligible to apply for their Green cards.

USCIS's sudden backlog reduction efforts during the past month have resulted in the use of almost 60,000 Employment numbers among which 18,000 were used on June 30 (Saturday) and July 1st (Sunday) according to (Quote source).

Thanks.

My 485 applications reached NSC on June 4th, 2007. I have called my attorney. They haven't received anything so far. I need to wait for few more days./

One more AC21 question -

Does the original I 140 stays with the employer or employee? Any other document that I need to get from my employer before switching?

Thanks,

If you cant get a copy of everything (if you ask the attorney directly you should be able ot get a copy of the complete filing) try to get:
- copy of LC or atleast the section that describes the skills
- copy of employment verification letter which describes skills

original I-140 typically stays with employer. trhey might give youa copy of the approval notice...

Really? Narendra Modi is great? And thats why he has been banned from visiting USA...WOW

who is rapists and looters? I just want to know...please dont get mad and dont say Narendra Modi. he is the only great leader left in India.

She told me she got it aorund the 6th
Thanks buddy

It was easy to do!

Congrats to all who are PRs now!

After CPO e-mail, card arrives within 10 days.

Chain of events are not consistent but usually at 1or 2 days interval, approval and welcome e-mails are seen as hard LUDs.

I-797 notice of approval is enough to go to district office and have I-551 stamp in passport. This is the proof of GC.

Enjoy, do not worry and relax!

Remember your family, friends and IV.

Please be generous in contributing (my continued participation, advisement and $$$$.....).

Recurring contribution, small is beautiful and kaizen would help us all.

Wish you all to be best citizens and ambassadors of peace, prosperity and happiness!!

I am telling you guys, send the major News channels a Big Stinking Dead Fish with the message "Something's FISHY at the USCIS and it STINKS for Legal Immigrants".

Sent out on Friday with an overnight delivery. So hoping that it must reach there today! Lawyers office is busy!!! won't tell the tracking number, only will confirm that it has gone out!!!

You got to be kidding. Why not rename the "World" as "India" . Typical disdain. The quota was IN the system before anyone got here by H1B, so your argument is fallacious. We were all aware of the quota when we got here.

There are highly skilled programmers from Nigeria also, just not in the same numbers. So you want them to stand behind all of China and India ?

No I was not aware of the quota. Do we need to go for an immigration course before we decide to take up the job offer in 2000 and start predicting what will be the effect of quota in 2009? I am sure you also did not do that and did not know whats involved in getting a green card. You are just lucky that there is a "quota."

Nigerians can stand in the same queue that Indians and Chinese will stand in, why is there a separate queue?

My 485 pkg reached NSC at 11.14 am on July 16,2007 signed by F.Heinauer.

Still waiting for the receipts..

In your case, I think u should give it a day or two.

Could you please let me know whether your # starts with LIN or SRC?

Thx


Hello Everyone,

My checks were cashed yesterday. My application reached NSC on July 14. My I-140 was also approved from NSC.

I got the receipt numbers from the back of the checks, however when I entered them on the USCIS website, it said that the numbers were invalid. Any idea if I need to wait another day or so before the system will accept them?

Good luck to everyone still waiting...
