did u e-mail them this week?Is ur application registered in their system....I mailed mine on 25th and it was delivered on 26th and I am wondering when it would be in their system???

Yes and also I contacted them via phone.

One lady picked up and told me that my application was not reigstered and it might be in return mail..She said recently they are sending the application back if the photos come as black when scanned using their scanner. She told me to contact mail room but no luck in reaching them..Its always busy and going to voice mail..

i've sent another email about mail room contact..I've got response and asked my number and the rep will ask the mail room to contact me directly....I'm hoping to hear from them..

One of the items in the agenda for the April 4th and 5th, 2011: Advocacy days in Washington DC is "-Allowing people to file I-485 and get EAD even when their priority date is not current." but the deadline for voting on this is April 30th, 2011.

Am I reading incorrectly?

The April 30th deadline is to get enough numbers for the public action items to be carried out in which thousands will participate in contacting USCIS and other related departments.
This public action item needs in the range of 10-20,000 participants to succeed.

We are also campaigning for this on April 4th -5th with meetings involving a couple of hundred people with offices in DC.

This has been the regular way... CPO e-mail first and then an e-mail saying "... we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status."

Naa.. Lots of people including me never received CPO email. For such instances, CPO email will take a while (may be an issue with expired Biometrics..etc). The wait continues for some more time to see the actual cards in the mail. There is a dedicated thread on this issue on .

We need 125 more to reach our goal


Just got one more membership!!

Go Team IV

We are now 25 strong!!

Hi IV'ers,

Today IV is a 10000 member organization!
Thank you everyone who participated in the campaign!

Three important next steps:

1. Let us all (every member), start and continue working on the IV action items such as "Meet your Lawmakers", "Call Lawmakers", etc. If we can do these now, we will definitely be able to influence the upcoming votes in the House and Senate on the immigration bills. And these bills are coming pretty soon (in a matter of weeks). So now is the time to act!

2. Let us all contribute as much as possible now. OUr donations will help IV in its lobbying effort. The more financially strong IV is, the better it can work support on the hill.

3. Last but not the least, we cannot stop at 10000. The stronger our numbers are, the more effective we can be (both in campaigns, as well as financially). So I am upping the target here. Please help introduce ONE member to IV by the end of April. If everyone of us added just ONE member by end of April 2007, we would be a 20000 member strong team.

20000 might look daunting, but's it's really not every individual just took care of his one member.

ADD ONE MEMBER BY APRIL 30, 2007!

Thank you.


Thanks Neelu, Pappu, Maccaca, all others that drove this campaign to finish at 10,000. The goal is to really get all these 10,000 members to be involved and be active. Yes we can easily be 20,000, since the ball already is rolling and we can see the snowball effect.
CONGRAJULATIONS!!. Proud of this team. We can do wonders because we are together and working on a common goal.

I have decided to come to this wonderful event and support IV and the members. I will post my details as I make arrangements.

real easy to help.

Join state chapter, attend a meeting law maker training session, and then try to arrange appointments with aids, and go and meet with them. Then follow up with them. I think that the training part is important.

Susie -- we all need to vent. No problems.

Hi

Thanks for your understanding. Am trying to get appointments with legislators but it is harder than getting blood out of a stone

and meeting you all

NolaIndian, Good work, thank you for your efforts on this.

Nor. Cal. members there is an event during August '08, lets start training early, I am excited about this. Sign me up.

I am happy that this thread is live again after 2 years (I started this in 2008).
Thanks for starting this thread. The next 2 years should be the right time to pursue this I feel. With EB2 approvals picking up at a good rate and the good predictions by qeshmk, TeddyKochu etc in other threads, it gives hope to many of us. Hopefully our fellow EB3 friends also get their approvals by mid 2011. Given the recession in '07, '08, we don't see too many new apps files for ROW in that period, so hopefully we'll have some spillover again in FY'11. That should help both EB2 and EB3 categories.

Having said that, this will be the right time to purse this agenda...Many of the folks suggested, counting date for citizenship from I-485 receipt date or I-140 receipt date. If you google 'Backdate GC', we can see that many other folks in murthy, rajiv khanna forums are also talking about this. So, we might have enough members to pursue this further. Many of us have been here close to 10 years (Me from 2000 on F1, OPT, H1B etc). Its only fair to have some of those years counted towards citizenship.

Pappu, IV leadership,

Please let us know how to proceed further on this...

I might be wrong, but I read somewhere that these numbers would go to those working in math or science related fields AND who had graduated with a related degree in the last 5 years.

Again, I'm not 100% on it, just wanted to check if anyone else heard the same.

Real Companies like PWC, IBM pay you while you're on bench, while this indian consulting companies break the law by not doing that.

Q : Must an H-1B alien be working at all times? (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=a62bec897643f010VgnVCM1000000ecd190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=1847c9ee2f82b010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD)

As long as the employer/employee relationship exists, an H-1B alien is still in status. An H-1B alien may work in full or part-time employment and remain in status. An H-1B alien may also be on vacation, sick/maternity/paternity leave, on strike, or otherwise inactive without affecting his or her status.

lol123 and aphilimajan,

when did you e-file ?
I guess the only way is to get an infopass appt on the 91st day .But heard theres no interim EAD .

I am just trying to see what all options do i have.

Even illigal immigrants has more optimism,
And they actually believe themselves they have every right to become a permanant citizens than legal immigrants waiting in line.

Some folks can't even bear the thought if some one thinks they should try to influence the law makers.

Illegals have nothing to lose. If CIR happens...they celebrate, now that they can all be legal and apply for their families to follow them
If CIR does not happen...they still continue to live here, work their jobs, keep sending money home, and try and get their relatives over here by paying the "coyotes"...it makes no difference to them.

Even if these guys are legalised, they will still NOT pay taxes, NOT learn english, NOT try and be upstanding residents.

They have huge numers, both in population and political support.

They represent a MASSIVE democratic vote bank.

WE (EB) have none of the above and a lot to lose)

Hence, the attitude.

Chintu,

Can you pls let me know more on -- I run scans nightly as well as in the Pre Hours for day trading .

like how to do this, any tools we need to do this,

tks and rgds - ramki.

Hi Ramki,

I think this question is better answered in a discussion environment ....


Let us all fix a time to meet on Immigration voice chat some time this week night or weekend to discuss ideas.

We can meet tomm at 9.30 EST for an hour or so ?

Please confirm availability those who can

huh?
7 months and 23 days is the minimum

sorry to sound like a beaten record - but it seems that everyone here pretty much sees citizenship as fait accompli!

how has our respective motherlands harmed us that despite being pushed around by US for years on end -we are desperately seeking US citizenship?? after all - in many cases - its the basic and advanced education received at our respective countries that has made us qualify as "highly skilled" immigrants here.....

go ahead - put all the red dots - but do some soul searching before that!

here is the first line of US citizenship oath - "I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen" - while i can absolutely live in US as a law-abiding, tax-paying resident - how can i renounce my country of birth?

I respect your thoughts and to some extent I personally share them. The primary benefit of citizenship for me and I believe for many others posting on this thread would be to bring our aging parents to this country and to be able to live with them.

I have e-filed on May 22
FP done on 06/17
LUD on 07/22
No updates later .

I have an infopass appt on Aug 19 as I pass my 90 days .Can you please tell us your Infopass experince ? Hopefully this would help me and others in similar situation.

I got the card production ordered email today. I dont know if the infopass appointment that I had yesterday made any difference or not. But for the time being Im very relieved and happy.
