Guys ... Ron has reported this campaign on his website forum:

http://immigration-information.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5110

I like his blog title : Its time to pull the teeth of the Hispanic Caucus

I am trying to get it listed by Matthew Oh, Sheela Murthy, and Rajiv Khanna

GOOD JOB! Emailed Atty Carl Shusterman and Curran & Berger to campaign it on their websites!

So was the billed passed or not? Logiclife said "NO", but certain members still say its passed.

Shall we now leave this aside and continue working on our goals or should we take a little time off to celebrate yet?

If at all the bill is passed yesterday then we should congratulate ourself for this wondeful job by IV.

Finished calling half the list, Calling the rest in an hour.

When USCIS sent you the RFE notice, you would have seen "Request for Evidence". After USCIS receives your response, you would have seen the hard LUD, while the header is still for RFE. Then after some days (with in 60 days), the header changes to "Request for Evidence Response Review", while the old header "Request for Evidence" vanishes. I was in the same boat like you. I spoke to my attorney's team and they offered me the insight glimpse of working of USCIS.

Do you know if this status continues after the 60 days? I had RFE and status is in "Request for Evidence Response Review" since we replied the RFE.

Hi

My PD is Nov 2004. I am waiting for CPO mail and GC.

Any one know whether change of address cause transfer case from one service center to other service center ( NSC To TSC)?


Thanks

I believe Indians want to enjoy life too much after coming to US, the only way to succeed is to work hard and with sincerity . Based on the observation i see very few Indians fully committing themselves to work. not sure why :confused:

Agreed. Changing the spillover rule is the easiest in this bad economy.

How about we propose to USCIS/DOS to give spillover based on PD and not based on Category. This way EB3-I and EB2-I will move forward steadily without any fuss. I know initially it will help most of EB3-I but once EB3-I catches up with EB2-I then both can move forward together.

Just a thought. I am sure EB2-I will give me lots of reds but I don't care.

Well, we have to do something. Everybody got ideas but who is working on them? I am ready to send as many letters if needed but I need some help composing that letter bcoz I am not good at writing. Can somebody come forward for that?

Finally after the third "card production" email (June 23rd, July 15th, July 29th) i got the card today valid for one year. I efiled on April 27th. My PD is April 2006 EB2. So i guess thats why got only for one year.

The slowness in the approval rate has me a little worried. In July many people got approved at within the first few days - that does not seem to have happened for the first 3 days of August so far. I'm hoping that this is just a blip and the trend picks up shortly.

Specially NSC - Not many approvals seen from there in the last few days:confused:

This is a link to other races in the DC area: I have never run a race; so I plan on running one of the 5K races in May or June and maybe try one of the 10K races in August. I am sure there are other races abound in summer. If there are others who are apprehensive about running the 10miler (like me).........you might want to try doing something similar.

With this attitude and arrogance, I rarely think there would be motivation for anyone to do anything for IV.

I started discussion by asking , how can IV convince me that my donation is going to help, I got shot down by ARROGANT ******** and got all reds as if I care. I was planning on a charity/donation drive of my own to get some money for IV.
Know lot of consultants, who really dont know what to do with their miles with every one a executive airline status.
Already have 10+ people pledging Poker tournament from my poker group with their miles for Airlines and hotels. We are talking of a Million AA miles.
Indian restaurants(s) having a Immigration week where a dollar of each bill be given to IV.
I was even thinking of standing at Indian stores in Dallas to ask people to consider for IV cause, as long as I believed and hence was asking.

I was just getting started with so many ideas for my free time.

Good luck in what ever you do guys. Note that GC is not everything and note that I am still on extended H1, family on H1 and EAD never helped me. so assumption that EAD helped my life is baseless. All these hypocrites are long gone from IV once they get GC. All we get is response that Mr X or Y , even after getting GC, is working fro cause. How can I believe.

Any organization can be successful if there are questions answered and not shot down. Just working at DC doesnt make some one a strong contributor for IV.Work at grass root level is so imp. What I have noticed is any one who went to DC has become headstrong, egoist and arrogant as if they own IV.


Please read my initial post before commenting. I always said, I am for IV cause. just convince me so that I can convince some one

Gisa pita dialogue,...dont ask what IV has done,, ask yourself what you have done... COMMON

Here it is, I can write in BOLD and RED

Whom are you trying to fool?
You are only showing what a fool you are.

If you wanted to do anything you would have done something since June 2007 when you became a member. What did you do since then?

Now your PD is getting current and you are close to Greencard. You WILL NOT do anything. But you will become an anti-immigrant for sure as someone wrote on the forum. As I understand, nobody is here to convince anyone else. Everyone is dong it because they want to do it for their application and they are doing the right thing. IV is a non profit. Each person is supporting because they feel they need to help themselves by helping IV.

Hi,

My labor certification was filed in Dec. '06. Since its date of filing, the online case status was showing as "in process". However, on 07/20/07, last week, the status changed to "case denied".

1) What are the next steps?

2) Do I need to refile the labor certification. If yes, how soon can it be done?

3) Can it be filed for the same position or it needs to be filed for a different position?

4) Should I find a new employer to file for labor certification as my current employer could not get my labor certification approved or I should stick with this employer itself and file for a new labor certification?


Please help me out.

Thanks

So, from what I read in this thread:

* EB2 (India/China) may not have MANY cases with PD earlier than 2005 as only after retrogression (in 2005), EB2 started piling up.

* Most 2001/2002 EB3 cases are approved (in June/July/August 2007) and they may be still receiving approvals off numbers reserved for them in June/July 2007. Hence, the natural movement for EB3 to 2003 in the near future.

* If most of the EB3 cases filed in June/Juy are not processed by USCIS by next June (2008), then PD may become current during the last quarter of FY 2008 (or atleast to end of 2006). If enough cases are approved (and pending for VISA numbers), then it may move only to 2004 or early 2005.

* EB2 - same logic as above - it may become current or move to early 2006.

Makes sense?

Looking at the Approval trend, it looks like TSC and NSC are not following the FIFO (Based on PD, ND etc) when approval. More than half of the approvals are after my PD.
Any one has any idea of approximately many EB2-I cases were approved last year in Sept 2008. Because of the out of turn approvals random date approvals I may be loosing chance once again this time.

I had RFE's for my wife's and my I485 way back in March 09 and after we replied to the RFE's and there multiple LUD's and Soft LUD's till 04/14/2009. On 04/04/2009 last Soft LUD was on my Wife's , Daughter (she never got any RFE) and my case and since then no updates. I was assuming that my case is PreAdjudicated and had high hopes.

Once again seeing an inefficient and irresponsible USCIS being unfair...
--------------------------
PD : 07/08/2004
ND : 08/09/2007
I485 Receipt date : 07/02/2007
Current status : H1B ( working for employer who sponsored GC)
I140 approved : 11/2006

I guess when millions are unemployed, why not kick out foreign workers so that the jobs become available to the locals ?, is that the intention ? :mad:

Whatever it is, folks are hoarding cash, and if given a GC can stimulate the economy. I guess we will know who the real gainers and loosers are :cool:

Sorry to hear about your situation but there is a small glimmer of hope. As per the deadline set for clearing labor backlogs, DOL has targeted it for September 2007. And as per the bulletin today, the visa numbers are expected to be current until at least October of this year. So let's hope your labor gets cleared by then and you can then concurrently file for I-140 and I-485.

Years we have been told priority date establishes your place in the queue.

We have spurned job offers and declined the new PERM process to hold on to the priority dates.

Many are still awaiting labor certifications from the backlog elimination centers. Out comes USCIS and says everyone with a LC can file I140 & I485.

People still waiting for LC with priority dates in 2003-2004 are seeing applicants who have priority dates as late as 2007 but with approved LCs through PERM walk through to I485.

Net result, USCIS is going to be flooded with applicants enough to retrogress the priority dates 3-4 years back as early as september. (Everybody with a LC will be able to file for I485 in July). So applicants with priority dates of 2007 are going to get EAD and GC, while LC backlogged 2003 applicants to have to wait for another 3-4 years before they can even file I485.

Aint fair. Aint fair at all. How can this be. How can rules be changed in the middle of the game.

Thank you. Our company promised to file before 23rd July and I was worried about the rumors. Thanks for clarifying you saved one panic email to the lawyer and HR :)

what does visa bulletin 0f nov 07 mean for the rest of the world?i mean not for india and china.
i am eb2 .current mean what?

Current mean: You should get documents including your medicals, photos, employment verification letterm etc., ready and file AOS at the earliest oppurtunity in nov. good luck

I wont never want to be a US citizen anyways. GC is all required. are you kidding me. why would you want to be a citizen here anyways.

Have been here for 10 years still waiting for approval. Good luck to all those got approved.

Any suggestions, comments, opinions....?

Hello Gurus,
I have a question as follows. I was with an old company and transferred the H1 in the 9th year to the new company. I already had my Labor and I-140 approved with the old company (EB3-I Category).
After switching to this new company I had to start my PERM all over again as I missed the July 2007 boat and could not file for I-485. My new company is based in L.A.-California. I am already drawing my salary from new company. They only have office in L.A. I work for them from my home office in NJ. Today the company's attorney called & asked me that I needed to have L.A. residential address as it is required to be stated on the application. I have no intentions to move to L.A. in near future. I am in a fix now as to how to go about this. I will appreciate all you gurus and experts advice and also please advise me repercussions if any.
Please help.
