I do not need any job but I am going to write to the VP of this company and demand explanation to prove why he be not considered a racist or at least a NON Equal Opportunity Employer

Unfortunately no community is safe from that irrational attacks of racism!
If you turn on your Hispanic TV networks , nowadays lots of Mexicans are
blaming Argentinian coach/ naturalized players on Football World Cup elimination!
Lots of them are demanding that non mexican born people are not allowed neither to coach nor to play for Mexico anymore!:eek:
Unbelivable!

Generalizations are dangerous, for your information it is not racism, the fear of foreigners is known as Xenophobia. Argentines are not that much different from persons from Mexico as to their ethnicity and racial composition. Secondly the views of a few angry callers should not get a country labelled for a social ill just as the minute men and some supremacist groups do not make the US predominantly racist. We're loosing the focus here, this is not about this country or that country its about the immigrant community and the challenges we collectively face.

I sent an email to my congressman immigration staffer on Monday, about my spouse's case ( EB2 I, Dec 2005). Got a snail mail yesterday that they did not get a response and are still waitng for a response. Today, i called their office and they said they got a response and the case is assigned to on officer and wait till September 10th. My wife had spoken to 2 tier support on Auguts 5th who said your case is assigned to an officer and you are pre adjucated. We also got a response to our SR created on August 5th, which says case under review. I guess the wait goes on.

I would not support this at all. Though it would clear the back log for the primary immigrant. What about the spouse and children. When you get your GC, dont you want to get it for your spouse and kids. Do you want them to keep in limbo for five years. It can be counted against family quota but should be given along with the primary. Otherwise its crap.

This might be antis work to divide the community. So be aware.

I am still waiting?

I called USCIS today morning, response was by end of this (oct)month they will complete all data entry for I-485. He told that last week they did lot of entries for July 2 and we should see the receipt number any time soon.

can core use the IV funds to reimburse their personal expenses incurred for IV related efforts?

OH No !!!! But thanks anyway !

If you read the first post , please pledge now. We will instruct on how to pay later.

If you pay now, the funds will be credited to the IV funds. This drive is specifically for reiimbursing the administrative costs incurred by Aman and other IV core team members.

Hello All..
Can anyone throw some light on why some cases have not been receipted so far and are pending for any action..No rejections, no receipts no cheques ..nothing..
I see guys already starting to discuss EAD and opening companise etc..
We are still waiting for the ACK fron USICS...
My case was received at NSC on 18Th July by R cook, whose name I havent seen in this frum...and no info so far..Called USICS and talked to 2nd level clerk but no receipted so far.. so they have no info..
Guys anyone can you please tell me what cud be the reason for such delays...

Processing dates doesn�t mean they don�t process applications received after those dates.
I got my H1B renewal notice last week. My application�s received date is in 3rd week of Jan and Processing date for H1B extension is still in December-07.

Yes this was a recent change in the way they reported processing dates. Instead of reporting which date they are working on "now", they now publish the receipt date of the earliest application that is still being processed.

That explains the "retrogression", if you will, of processing dates of TSC after the initiation of the new NC rule. A lot of applications stuck in NC suddenly became available for processing, and hence the RD of the "earliest" case under processing had to be moved back.

no receipt notice yet. Checks haven't been cashed as of this morning.

I got an email today from USCIS stating this
Current Status: Card production ordered.

I did not receive any other approval notice. I hope this means that our 485 is approved and the cards have been ordered ?

My PD Is May 2003

Congrats!
Usually there will be another message "Notice welcoming permanrent resident sent" . Then, after a few days there will be "Approval notice sent" , the physical approval notice goes to your attorney. You should receive the physical card within 7-10 days.

EAD - Paper filed

Filled on June 30th
Receipt Date July 8st.
LUD on July 11th

Thanks.

It is correct. We are talking about both kinds of kids. And saying that not having greencard affects the quality of life for the family.

Agreed. better might have been,

"The current long green card delays also cause deeply disturbing quality of life issues even for the children born inside of the US, but whose parents are high skilled immigrants caught in this seemingly never ending delay."

just my two cents.

These changes won't make much difference. Still the email is a very commendable job. Thanks!

It is good to know that there are a few willing to do something about this!

But we need more people!

Even about 50 people is a good start! Come on people... spare a few minutes and take part in this protest!

Don't go on with your lives as if nothing happened and don't think that nothing will happen!

Most of us come from the land of Gandhiji... most of us have forgotten what that one little man achieved! But the fact is he couldn't have achieved everything that he did if the people of India didn't believe!

So start to believe people! You can make a difference!

Instead, lets "go postal" on USCIS

Guys
this is pathetic.. wake up can you not spend 30$ from your pockets to make this thing happen? Why would you not want to do something that is so different and would be effective if all of us do it together.

cmon, arise,awake.

Sorry - I had no idea what this thread was about.

gccovet,

no idea at all.

I got another lud today on 765 with another message in mail

Application Type: I765, APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION

Current Status: Card production ordered.

On July 28, 2008, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you.

I think a GC app is for a futute position. So getting promotions should be ok. I have seen comments stating otherwise here in the forums. What is true?

I have mulled over different options in my head for a long time. Here are some things I came up with:

- switch to a part time H1 (and do something else in your free time that you might find a little more fulfilling, i.e enrolling in PT grad program, starting a business (which you CAN do on an H1!!!), travel!!). I know there is the money factor but most of us are IT people and hopefully taking a cut will be worth the improved life.

- begin your Canadian PR process. This takes a lot less time and honestly, I think Canadians are more cultured anyway. Leave these people to their Paris and Nicoles :)

OK - I guess I didn;t come up with as many options as I had thought.... :)

the Canada option and is not bad. you can get it in 1 year plus it will take less energy than it takes you now to remain depressed.

Buddy i am in the same boat :)

You being US citizen or president of USA does not mean much to us! I have requested you to show me "so called 30 day rule" on any of the official web site (For example USCIS). I have asked you this several times. Every time You just direct us to some lawyer's web site/university web site and expect us to believe them.

Show me the information on official web site and I will shut up.

I suggest, go ahead and let me know which point you think is not correct.

I have been in this country and dealt with immigration issues for more than 10 years now. Please feel free to look at my old post, and let me know if you find anything incorrect/wrong in any past posts.

I am a US citizen now and I post details to help my would be-immigrant friends.

I have mentioned IV to a some Indians. They have no interest. Some of them are not bothered about retrogression. They exepect the GC to fall in their lap while they are sipping tea and eating samosa.

Also, it is hard to trust a mainly Indian set up. The Indian contracting companies have set a very shameless level. I told my friends that IV appears different but it is hard to change your opinion when you see something else 10 times a day.

I apolozie to the sensitive Indians if I this is breaking news. But this is the general feeling and a reason for hate in the blogs: where there is smoke there is fire. It is embarassing.

For the life of me, I couldn't figure this out either.
I also don't understand why most of EB applicants are so oblivious to the EB-based immigration situation.
I am from ROW, and I could only shake my head in disbelief when one of my Indian friends asked me innocently if the 'situation' was 'really that bad'?
If there really are 600K EB applicants, and all we can get is 6K members, then perhaps we deserve the crappy situation we find ourselves in today.

That was comforting !
