...only if approved. Guess, luck matter a lot when ur dates are current...as those guys are picking up cases randomly. Majority of approvals thus far are Feb/Jan 06 , when oct/nov guys are still looking forward..Please, dont get me wrong....Systematic approvals helps everyone...as you know the celebration time has come
SR/infopass is such a routine a thing ...they have standard reply to mail out. It definitely is frustrating to sit on the edge and keep waiting....
thanks gbof...
no wonder(random process) Mr. Obama keeps pressing on improving Maths(and ...) skills...
esp NSC looks worst...

Thanx Pappu, for helping in this campaign!
One more member to join by weekend!
Everyone, please add just ONE member!!!
I had two more of my friends join on the 12th of dec, I just called them and confirmed.
What I have been realising, is that just inviting friends sending emails or "Invite a Friend"
feature on the website is not at all enough. You almost have to follow up with one or two phone calls.
"oh! great, I did not know there is an organisation, I will join it". is very amazing to see the
other extreme of "how can legislation help" to "what is a visa number" and "I-485?"
Anyways it is awareness that we have to build. People affected do not know, there is an organisation that
is working, that they can help and help themselves.
I urge to call and follow up, meet personally if possible. Last night again I met 1 other couple and talked to them
about immigration. I know some people feel it is personal to ask about status of their GC Process. I suggest you
talk to them about your process, and how limited visa numbers and retrogression with country quotas is creating
this bottleneck. Talk to them that without legislative change, they are looking at 6-10 years or more.

That's not correct. There is big difference between h1B annd GC and it is not for 10 years. it is for ever unless you don't fulfill some conditions.
GC is given for a period of 10 years and not for ever.

EB3 ROW is at Jun 2004. But as per latest USCIS inventory, EB3 ROW pending 485's are around 48,000. Visa numbers available every year for EB3 is approximately 42k. If you deduct the backlogged EB3 countries (4x3000) visa numbers, the total comes down to 30k for EB3 ROW. So EB3 ROW should become current or atleast Jul 07 in another 1.5 years. If this is not going to happen, it means they are diverting the EB3 numbers to some other categories.
my 2 cents
Note : If EB3 ROW has 30k visas per year and pending EB3 ROW 485's are only 50k.. why it is still hanging in 2004. God only knows !!
I was curious too about EB3 ROW not progressing. The only explanation could be that there were lot of consular cases with older PDs. (Or USCIS chose to ignore EB3 altogether. Remember the couple of hundred EB3-I visas wasted by USCIS recently.)

A visa number gets allocated only when administrative approval is granted by NVC. Most likely when you applied (packet 3) last year your case was current and visa numbers was available, however by the time they approved your case the window was closed and PDs became U.
NVC does not order a visa number for cases pending only for cases that they have approved/completed.
They do this every month around the 10th like clock work, if by the 10th of any month your case is approved/completed by NVC & your PD is current they order a visa number for you from DOS.
We called the NVC 2 days ago about the status of our application and the guy on the phone (who was, BTW, very polite and patient) told me that everything was processed and as soon as our PD was current we would get an interview appointment very soon.
We also sent an email-inquiry to the NVC last week and just today we got the reply :
"Unfortunately, this case no longer has a visa number available. This is
because the applicant' visa category is oversubscribed, meaning that
the available numerical limit of visas able to be issued was reached.
Upon reaching the numerical limit of visas able to be issued, only
beneficiaries who have a priority date earlier than listed in the current
Visa Bulletin may be allotted a visa number in this visa category. "
So, that must mean that they had a visa number for us back in August 2007 when they sent us the DS230-I and the bills for the visa fees although according to the VB for August/September 2007 EB3 ROW was "U" ?
Hmm, I have to admit that I have kind of given up on understanding how this all works. I'm just looking forward to that day when we finally receive our GC and are able to move to the States.
Good luck to all of you and even more patience !

Thanks santb1975 & NolaIndian for creating this. I am going to ask a friend who ran half marathon last year. I am still contemplating whether I will be able to keep the commitment, since the only exercise I do is walk to and from my car :D

Yep. It would be good for EB3/2 - India-PD 2007 filer considering canadian immigration simultaneously...ofcourse do not rush now for filing Canadian PR - As Canada generally gives you PR witin 2 years and by that time 2007 filers may not have passed FBI check for their 485 here..If the way things are going I see at least 5 years wait for 2007 (India)filers.
BharatPremi,
Can you guesstimate how long it would take for EB3/India, Mar 2005 (Pre-PERM), Consular Processing to get GC?
Appreciate your time.

Hi,
I am planning to start a new petition in EB2 and use my EB3 2003 PD.
What I gather from here is that the EB2 PERM has almost 100% chance of getting audited due to the current economy.
I am planning the EB2 with a different employer.
I have the following questions:
1) Since I am going with a different employer can I use a different ODot code than what was used when filing my EB3 labor in RIR? ( I am guessing the codes differ slightly from the old labor certification days anyways)
2) What would happen if by bad luck my new PERM gets denied? Will my old EB3 petition continue to be valid?
Any advise is greatly appreciated.

I am in the same situation. My attorney advised me to have one with my name if possible. I scanned mine and my wife's Birth certificate and sent it to my Dad in India. He said that he will get the original in 2 days. Looks like it is a straight forward process. You could just send it with a copy of ur passport.
P.S: They would need the copies to be notarized before taking it to corporation or municipality
you didnt understand my question. I do not have a birth certificate at all. in this case, what document should I use? thats the question.

It says
ii)(I) obtained such degree within the United States during the 5-year period preceding the date on which the petition filed under section 204(a)(1)(F) for classification under this subparagraph is filed; or
`(II) has resided continuously in the United States in a lawful nonimmigrant status since obtaining such degree; and
Bill applies to anyone who got their degree in preceding 5 years or resided legally since graduating (even greater than 5 years) will be eligible under this bill.
But, we have to figure out what is "resided continuously" and hows that is defined by USCIS.
Is it worth contacting lawmakers about this bill?

But some of those vaccinations require a 90 days period don't they? ( Like Hep-B if I am right, may be not!!!) :confused:

Clicking the mouse for 30 mins after 8 spoons of sugar ..wonder what that does :confused:..Let's see. Each spoon of sugar has about 15 calories. 8 spoons = 120 calories. 60 minutes of walking at a moderate pace burns about 120 - 150 calories. Clicking a mouse uses like 3 fingers and some wrist movements..I should stop now..LOL..Just a way to keep this thread on Top.
Clicking mouse constantly for half an hour after having 8 spoons of sugar.. :)By the way, i got your emails and will work out application form this weekend.. I had a plan to send it last weekend but could not do it.. Sorry for little delay.

dohko, The point of satishku_2000's post was that all companies follow the similar business practices. It doesn't make any difference if it is TCS or IBM, Anderson or Infosys. They are all same bunch of people, just different names. So your repeated rant about "indian companies" is not valid any more. We have someone who worked for IBM for 8 years and got 2 pay checks on bench. So now, lets not squabble without any reason.
Exactly ,
No body is forcing any one to do any unethical things that applies for consultants as well as consulting companies. If any one does anything illegal they will meet the fate of Enron, Anderson or CA.
No one is forcing any one to work for a desi consulting company, If anyone does not like them they always have the option of choosing a new employer or leaving the country.
No company is going to pay for a consultant if consultant does not deliver what client wants.
Hope economy will be strong no one has to see tbe bad days of 2001 and 2002 which I have seen personally .
Just recently two american mortgage lendors have laid off people in Southern California without any consideration for immigration status. These companies have people of all kinds which include "US educated" and direct H1s and their green card applicaitons in various stages. All these people have to start all over again. I feel sorry for these guys.
All the guys thinking about H1b "reform" think twice before what you wish for.

trueguy, If you are serious about this, let us create a plan together.
This is what I am proposing. I think just going to the lawmakers with out a strategy or a persuasive presentation will not take us further. This will enable us to atleast show them that we are very serious about this.
----------------------
Option 3:Re-intepreting and changing the spill over rule: This can be done without any legislative changes and USCIS can be asked to look on this if we can really force them to.
Steps to execute Option 3:
* Collect and consolidate all the data in a spreadsheet from the latest 485 inventory to the yearly reports of adjudicated cases
* Create a what if analysis for the next 3-5 years for EB2 I and EB3 I
* Create analysis to show what will happen with the old rule and changed interpretation of spill over
* Create a nice presentation
* Contact Senators, congressmen, USCIS and walk them through our presentation
-------------------------
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?

I would consider it a waste of time.
You seem to have some misconceptions. I am not a client of the lawyer mentioned, don't owe her anything and asked you for another suggestion. I don't know why you are being negative on this one.
I deleted the lawyers name from the original post, so you can stop with the conspiracy theory.
I work in technology not a law firm.
tonyHK12 appreciate your inputs. We are already united. IV has several thousand members and has conducted several campaigns. The leaders are very capable persons also. You have put forward a general idea but this has been debated a great deal. What is the purpose of even a poll when it is absolutely clear that everybody in this group would welcome a bill solely for reducing backlogg? The question is how can we get the legislator to write and introduce such a bill and then how to get it to pass. Who will support such a bill? Your desire is similar to everybody else in this group but until there is a definite strategy which is different from what has already been tried there is no point in just creating discussions foccussed on desires.
First think out a strategy and put it out. Others will then coment or join it.
Putting out vague goals like "we need a bill" is of not much use. the question that you need to answer is "how?"
