I will not be able to attend the event due to personal reasons;so am trying to compensate for it by atleast contributing sincerely to the event.Hope this will inspire some of the members who are still trying to decide wether to contribute/volunteer or not.

Thank you imm_pro for your generous contribution.

Thanks to all the members who are helping in any way possible to make this advocacy effort a success.

Thank you Tonyhk12 for keeping track of the contributions.

When we tried to schedule infopass (for sep) we found only one are two dates and appointments start from 6 AM. Is this correct? Will the office be open so early? We got a slot at 7.30 AM.

Also once you book an appoinment, I see only 'cancel' option, how to get to modify option?

Thank you for all the help.

Take a second opinion,
I had similar situation with my close friend here.
I was with him when he underwent the surgery, Once Doctor came out of surgury he told me (as I was the only one there and his family was in India) that my friend just had 6 months to live, But later found out that was treatable through chemo and radiation..This was almost 4 years ago, My friend is totally recovered and he got the GC year back and he is working in Mid-west.

So don't lose hope in GOD.

Only 2 people stepped up today....

How are we going to reach 1000?

Give it the benefit of the doubt of members not looking. We will wait till Thursday.

Desi393, FinalGC, Ramba:

You've mentioned a few times on this forum that on AC21, the job needs to be "permanent." That is misinformation.....

First read this post.

http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/473142-post12.html

This should clear your doubt. You can read RFE issued by USCIS on other forum as well. The word "permanent" is right there.


.

"Sorry, we are closed now." ???

Heck, no !!! I want fries with that !!!

With transfat or without transfat ?

SRC is always Texas , LIN is Nebraska. Also when you input the receipt number in USCIS case status website it tells you which center this application is with.

I understand that. What I wanted to know was what number you have? SRC or LIN? And also to confirm, if it was cashed by TSC? and not the case that it was cashed by NSC and then scheduled to be transfer to TSC?

As you had said "I think it got transferred to TSC". You mean it really got? or you think?

Thanks

Good job. Thanks.:D

Average worldwide processing time for employment based green card applications is 1.43 years (Priority Date to GC approval).

In simple words, it takes 5.5 years to wrap up the 1 year GC demand for Indian applicants presuming there is no overflow from any other country GC visa quota.

Above conclusion is drawn after comparing the statistics for just the 2007 PERM data from DOL.
http://www.shusterman.com/pdf/perm07.pdf

I also assumed that there are 1000 Non-Perm cases for India alone, but changing it would not affect the results a lot.

Just imagine the demand that would have been in years 2000~2002 and thats a project for another er!

Unless we stand up unitedly, talk to the senators and raise our voice, we can plan on retiring on H1. It may be now or never!

Thats what exactly I have been asking.

ANyone done landing and returned to US with AP....???

I have more or less given up on the Can PR.

However, please understand, we are asking for "fair" and "equitable" treatment for those who are already inside the country and devoted sufficient time of their life here. To me this means "justice." I can very well relate to your desperation and anger, but please don't react emotionally. The legal or technical fact remains that no-one guranteed us GC and truth of the matter is most of us said "No" when immigration officer asked " do you have plans to settle in State?" So their is no question of equitable treatment.

... it is possible that EB Indians are targeted by this administration. Infact in good times of this country we have done it a lot of favor instead of our home country. Now is the time to ask for "rights" for our contribution.. No Sir, I can't say thier is conspiracy as I know of none. As of us doing favor? ... is completly wrong, we all knew what and why we are coming here for. Had we had better choice we would have opted for that. Let's be honest to ourselves.

...So is it something that immigration is privilege when they need it and then chuck us out when they dont? Are you upto accepting that we are commodities to be used and thrown when they like? That my friend is captilism and welcome to USA. No I am not going to accept, but I am also not going to wave my fist in air and cry in-justices.

I am sorry to sound rude and know you must be going thru a lot and this news made things worst for you, as they did for all of us. But lets also accept the truth and believe me, things will change .... they will, when? I don't know but they will. Just don't lose hope.

I thought all the fees are to be paid by the employer then how come you are paying for it, is it still an option or is there any premium processing for 485

Actually I paid for all the fees from my personal checks. Later on my company reimbursed those. I dont think there is a premium processing for 485.

Completed! My wife and I sent the emails. Please tell us when to begin the phone calls.

awsome....

Now we should let the media know . Walter Reed ! could not ask for a better place. The Patient and soldier deserve it . My heart goes to them as an RN.

Any volunteer for the letter. We will need to move fast ! God knows what Oct bulletin has in store for us.

My biggest worry is that the bulletin may show retrogressed dates and the dates will stay there as it is till last quarter when visa flow will take place.

It is true that country quota is a discrimination. But when you just try to remove the country quota other country persons are going to oppose as they will be impacted if country quota is removed. But if you try with other agenda like recapture then opposition may not be strong and also every one will get benefit.

QUOTE=hindu_king;339926]Below is what I sent. Maybe we can tweak this letter and send it to all senators and congressmen.


Subject: Discrimination of Indian Immigrants

Dear President Obama,

I wanted to bring to your attention the plight of hundreds of thousands of highly skilled Indian immigrants waiting endlessly for many years in order to obtain a permanent residency in the US. The process of getting a permanent residency is a long, winding, time consuming, financially and emotionally draining experience, with no end at sight. After 5 to 10 years of waiting in line, paying taxes, obeying law, many high skilled workers from India find that permanent residency is only a dangling carrot that they may never get it.

One of the biggest hurdles for high skilled immigrants from India is a country cap that limits applicants from any one country from having more than 7% of the available employment based green cards (140,000 visa numbers per year). This means applicants from countries like Andorra and Luxembourg get the same number of green cards as applicants from India and China. This causes a person from India and China to wait 5 to 10 years in order to get permanent residency while applicants from all other countries have zero wait time. We are here in USA because we wanted to be a part of USA, and not because we came from a certain country. All applicants should be treated equally and country cap only allows discrimination by national origin in the disguise of fairness to all, as US has a lot more high skilled workers from India or China than from Andorra or Luxembourg.

President Obama, we are here to pursue the American Dream and we find hurdles at every level during the immigration process. I request you to kindly remove the discriminatory country cap and provide us relief. This is a small step that can enormously help hundred of thousands of high skilled immigrants and we will be grateful to you for our lifetime.

Thank you President Obama and you are doing a wonderful job!

Sincerely,
Xxxxx xxxxx[/QUOTE]

My application reached Texas August 10th.
Check cashed :NO
Receipts : NO

My wife and I submitted affidavits about the date of birth. We received our approvals 10 days without any RFEs about those affidavits.

-GK

Submitted affidavit for my wife too. No issues.

Also issue of discrepancy of EB2-I and EB3-I is raised first time that is after Aug VB. But I think it will fade away after oct VB when normal processing starts as diff in PD between EB3 and EB2 will be 1 or 2 years and each category will have equal Visa numbers for 9 months.

"There are more more severe issues in the country than resolving EB3-I"
True ... and so I guess there no issues more important in the country than to recapture visas for legal immigrants.

With your approach IV should just keep quiet and hope for the best.

Agreed Recapture will solve most of the problems but at the same time it has turned out to be the most difficult one to achieve since it requires a legislation change.

All the immigrant community should support IV in it's effort to recapture .

But I cannot understand your ilk who are adamant that the entire community should only focus on recapture and doing anything else is blasphemous and attach negative conotations like "infighting", "Splitiing" ....it's absurd.

Such utterances can poetentially hurt the recapture issue by alienating significant community size .

Why was this mantra,"Only Recapture nothing else", not preached

1. When IV sucessfully reversed USCIS decisions last July
2. Two year EAD's.

Recapture would have solved the above problems automatically to

I765 (EB3) Renewal
TSC USCIS Receipt Date 07/08/2008
Card Production Ordered Date: 09/02/2008.

There was no LUDs all the way and they did not ask me to do FPs. FPs were done in 10/2007 for I485.

Application Sent on June 30th. Recd in NSC on July 2nd. I had applied only 485 at that time. Sent the other forms later with the Fedex receipt no. Waiting for EAD/AP receipt now!!
