Thanks a lot for trying... mean while when somebody is looking into problem, can you do one time contribution for now.. do post in fund drive thread..

Thanks a lot..



Does anyone have any idea why the recurring contribution link is down???:confused:

GotGC??,
I don't think ppl understand how painful the wait in BEC's has been.

I am really apalled by the ppl in this thread who are saying don't complain about BEC. Their reaction can be summarized as follows:
"We are sorry you got have been getting screwed by BEC for 3-5 years but please be happy for those of us who started in PERM in 2005 and have been moaning about retrogression"

Oh Yeah??

So why didn't we accept the current retrogression as "injustice and screwed up process of USCIS" and just sat tight? Why did IV get started? Why threadful of messages moaning in agony over the retrogression? What warranted those threads, and for that matter, IV then?

If you read my any previous posts and to repeat, there will be no issue to contribute from me or most of us here. We need an action item. Anyone with minimum common knowledge here sees there is no change in dates for the last 6 months, or even last few years. You seem to be a strong supporter of contributions, can you list one action item which we planned to take up in the last or in near future that addresses our concerns of backlogs. Now dont come back and tell me or send me a picture of July 07 campaign or your 12th grade or 10th grade marksheet. We need to be doing things of our interest EVERY single day. I do my job very good.. I know.. but I have to keep doing it everyday if I have to keep it. Similarly unless you put continuous efforts, you wont get continuous results.
If you want a reply to your post from me again, come back with an action item that you see as planned.


I agree with this and he is right!!!!!!!

Would be great if NYC is part of the list!

feels like the last day of the annual exam at school. All the hard work for the whole year..going through a lot and finally writing exams..You just want to get over that "last day" of the academic year. ...But hey..we all went through it and went past that day....Our such day is around the corner and we can hardly wait ....

Feels great ..

Cheers:cool:

It is just not enough to add a new member to IV. In my opinion, we also need the new member to be proud of associating himself/herself with IV.

Here is what every new member needs to be made aware of-
- What IV has achieved in the last year of existence?
(Manager's amendment, media interviews including the Reuters article plus the last minute attempts in the lame-duck session)
- IV is the **only** grass-roots organization in the US working towards issues of Skilled Legal Immigration. The affected people in retrogression runs close to a million.

The thing I am driving at is that new members join and do not persist with IV because they have not been made aware of what IV is and what it has achieved.

It is not about IV core members alone, the issues at hand are affecting YOU!!!!

Thank you

Signed up for 20$/month contribution. Trying to get more "contributing" members to register to this site. My wholehearted thanks to the core group!

We started the recurring contributions system Monday night and we sent out emails to 8400 individuals in addition to posting on this site.

Out of 8400, we have nearly a whopping 35 people signed up for recurring contributions. This is below the lowest of low expectations.....................

we sent EAD renewal application thru attorney on March 16th 2010, it was delivered but didn't receive any update/ USCIS didn't withdraw the fee also till now...lot of delay it seems this year.

Yes, I know. I have availed of this facility many times and have also suggested many other fellow members. But unfortunately there are no attorney calls today :(

what the law is; is that greencard is for future position. who you are working with/where you live, what your status is; is totally irrelevant.

the company is probably advertising the position in california and that is where the job opportunity is. If it doesn't allow for travel then company is saying that is where you are going to permanently work.

Where you are currently doesn't matter within the law.

however, in the last few months; department of labor in audit requests has stated that job opportunity is at xx location but person address is at xxx and to explain the discrepancy. I haven't seen this type of query recently but your lawyer is probably thinking about getting this type of query.

Hi Everyone,

My labor was approved under EB2 in Sept 06 under perm. Filing date was May 06. However my employer just told me that the letter has come from DOL to run the advt for the old labor that was filed under Eb2 category in Feb 05. I save a year plus on the old labor. Can I use that labor and if not what happens to that labor?

Thanks and regards

Bouquets.

drumroll...

Your analysis doesn't include the impact of LC substitutions that happened.

I totally second that. Saralayar has raised a very valid issue and its up to IV and core memebers to take it or not. Getting GC should not be the end of the story, we ought to think beyond that. had this GC process been consistant and FIFO, there would not have been any problem with the fact "citizenship after 5 years of GC". Now this GC thing is so screwed up, we might want to include citizen ship issue as well but definitely, at the very lowest priority.
I am happy that many of our high skilled community has understood my idea and supporting this thread. Yes definitely Core IV needs to look into this. You can also include your valid points so that core IV team can consolidate and research on this.

Great work, hopefully we can reach out more and more like this to make the senators/congressmen aware of our situations/concerns.

I will take any number of such goof-ups.. so it will be another night of hope & dream(s)...

I applied on 4/19. No response yet. Mine is expiring in end of July.
I have mailed my application to Dallas Lock box on 5/10, received on 5/11. My checks are not cashed yet and no reply on status of the application.

Now I am thinking I should sign up for the family and all three of us would be able to do the 5K for sure.

Alright. I will sign - up for the Houston Half Marathon and if you decide to upgrade to a half I will swap my Half marathon Decal with your 5K decal. Sound Good? :p

This is great..I wonder how powerful she is? They never cared to reply to her July 2nd letter.
hence the timebound letter now.....but USCIS doesnt give a damn...

Were you in the EB3 or EB2 Category? And which processing center or are they all the same now for PERM?


I am in EB2, it was painful to see approvals of others..but everything went fine from there...I-140 got approved within 6 days...so I am almost half-GC holder:p

I made my 4th contribution for $50, so far $250. Will be contributing more when it requires.
