There is no harm in adding this also as the fifth item along with the existing 4 items. :D
I think CITIZENShip years Credit or Reduction in the years is Make most sense for the highly skilled immigrant from India and China as those are the people who suffers most because of backlog and name check.
I also think we should stick to the "five year federal taxes paid" beacuse that is what they expect from normal family based GC holder. Also adding Masters and Higher degrees in the STEM fields attract possible more support.
We should not talk any where close to 10 /15 years waiting time as that is not what current system of citizesnship talks about.
Also marriage based GC already has 3 years after GC rule so it may beeasy to get it.
Making it more complicated like Percent credit for before GC filing, after GC filing, after getting GC May become hard and complicated to convenince politicains who might be amending those rules.
So Keeping it simple - 5 yr federal taxes, MS or higher in STEM, 3 years after GC - you get citizenship (all of these has precedents)

that the current application processing range is 6-10 months after filing. Given the current economic conditions, it would be beneficial to see the application approved rather than worry about delays.

Total EB applications filed is only 300K(jul-aug 2007) does not fit in the above logic...
320K only applies to July VISA bulletin, It doesn't count June which is also significant.

Just happen to see some RoW EB3 cases at Nebraska center get approved.
One is RD 06/12/2007, which is a little bit more than 06/08/2007 on the Nebraska's RD processing annouced for 3/15/2007.
The other with RD 06/15/2007
P.S: The more I look at , I see there's even one case with RD for 07/13/2007
So it's possible Nebraska will move processing date forward to at least 07/15/2007 at the next processing date annoucement.

Seems still there are number of April filers case are pending (Ffiling).
Here and there there are cases approved who filed June also but that is less than 1%. We should not consider them.
I called yesterday - Representative told me that they are working on April 21-25th cases as of yesterday.
God knows when they come to JUNE.
At least they have to take out the bar to file with in 120 days rule.
All rules are make us to feel too much tension which inturn decrease our life expectency. Is that their 'gift' for us for serving this Country?.
I have seen approvals for May filers on IV.
Lots of people have posted about their EAD approvals in the GC thread.
I think TSC have started approving EAD filed in may. So, lets hope for the best. I hope this helps.
GO IV GO.

We EB3 folks are not requesting for EB2 visas. We all will be happy to get 50% EB1 spill over visas. The other 50% can go to Eb2s.
right now 100% of EB1 spill over is going to EB2.
Eb2 category gets 28.6% Visa number. Any spillover from EEB2 will only go the EB2. Why would USCIS change the rule and allocate the visa numbers from EB2 to Eb3. This does not make sense. I agree that spillover from Eb1 can go to both EB2 and EB3. There is no way this argument will fly that EB2 numbers be allocated to EB3. This is a statue and USCIS cannot deviate from that. They will face a lawsuit if they do so. USCIS is using the correct spillover procedue and I dont think they will change it. The only argument EB3 should make it that spillover from EB1 should go to both EB2 and EB3.
It is not individual qualifications that matter but it is the job requirement. So if you are in EB3 try to port it to EB2. Nothing else will matter.

I noticed someone posted this in one other thread. I just noticed this as the 3rd headlines on CNN home page.
Coopheal:
If you really contributed $2400 as you say in your post and if you are really EB3 with PD 2003, then you wouldnt be asking others or me the questions. You didnt list a single action item that makes obvious sense to most people here.
Do you want me also to write below " I contributed $8000 so far".. Do you think it will make anyone to even contribute a $ here unless they see a point. Wake up and come up with a better plan.

I agree too. Visa Re-capture is the only solution which is available at this time. Now we have actual data in hand. We need to build a strong case, for ex person with priority date of 2004 have x number of people ahead of him, based on the numbers available per year for EB3 (I) It will easily take more than 5 years, That means total time for GC process from start to finish is >10 years.
One has to work in similar position for 10 years.
We can brain storm points like this an d build a strong case for admin fix/ Visa re-capture...
Thoughts/ Concerns..
I agree with you. Recapture is ony way out. Spill over was done from 2002 - 2006 and EB3 I was still struck in 2001. Adding 20k visa would barely move EB3 I With all the labor subs that happened in 2007 there are many more people that have jumped the lines. All Spill over can do is barely move Eb3 from 2001 to early / mid 2002 that is all. So for folks post 2004 PD you are struck because by the time your PD gets spillover there will be EB2 I & C fighting for the same visa# that you need. So spill over helps a small section either Eb3 I with PD between 2001 - 2003 or EB2 with PD 2005 - CURRENT. For all others only real chance is recapture

Hello IV:
Time and again I see most members skeptical on efforts such as those organized by IV. I happened to surf upon the NumbersUSA website and the general outlay of the website clearly establishes their objectives and motto. Although IV is fighting for a niche stage in the legal immigration process, a stage which almost all non-immigrants have to pass through, it is my perspective that this is never clearly communicated. The NumbersUSA website is visually more informative.
"Why don't you do it for us?" may be one of the questions resulting from this post. I simply don't have the time which is why I am hoping that my recurring contribution of $50/month can be used for such a purpose.
Also, a blogspot for the CORE team members and their efforts would nicely keep us busy non-immigrant professionals encouraged on daily or weekly efforts by IV. I honestly swing by everyday to see what IV is upto by frantically looking for a relative subject in the posts of the forum. Alas, only to be deceived by requests for contribution which I am humbly not discouraging, but it is heartburning to swing by IV and then look over the House Clerk's website to see what was in session for the day and what we might potentially be upto, leaving the battle plan of IV to my creative and tired mind.
"Why contribute if you don't have faith in us?" you may ask. Simple! I feel proud to be an immigrant and fighting for our rights. Not a day passes by when my mind plays tricks on me to sell my 62" Plasma TV, my comfy leather sofa, my Playstation 2 and the two part-time business ventures I formed which will potentially employ 20 americans and give business to marketing, promotions and other agencies to help the venture succeed, to return back to India.
I am still searching for the right answer...
Hopefully, my small contribution to IV to aid their massive efforts will help me come closer to the truth and ultimately my decision.
Do please stay united in your efforts, for the day will never end for non-immigrants alike in their endeavour to succeed and live life hoping that every day they can make a difference in people's lives not knowing that there is no difference in their own because they are caught in a web of misinformed albeit ignorant citizens and this mythical Green(C) monster.
For all those non-believers, kudos to you for you seem to have mastered the fine art of ignorance without guilt and self-deception.
Here is my signature -
$25 + $50/month so far. Millions in the future if I succeed through my mighty keyboard. :)

You don't contribute because your issue of "name check" is not on IV's agenda?
No. The I-129 is submitted by your employer. Your leaving the country does not affect the H1 petition.
Only the COS will not be automatic in October, and you will need to get stamping or re-submit I-539 to validate your H1.
Hope you win the lottery!

US Senate Committe on Small Business and Enterprenership (http://sbc.senate.gov/record.cfm?id=267960)
Senate Passes Key Funding for Women�s Business Centers
Wednesday, January 24, 2007
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today the U.S. Senate unanimously passed an amendment sponsored by Senators John Kerry (D-Mass.), Olympia J. Snowe (R-Maine), and John Sununu (R-N.H.) to create a grant program for established, successful Women's Business Centers around the country. The provision is now part of the minimum wage legislation being considered on the Senate floor.
"I've been working for 21 years on the Committee to promote expanded entrepreneurial opportunities for women and secure funding for these centers which help turn ideas into jobs, start-ups into success," said Kerry, Chairman of the Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship. "I cannot stress enough the vital role Women's Business Centers play in cities all around the country, like Boston and Worcester. This amendment ensures we will be providing women-owned small businesses the tools they need to grow and flourish."
"We cannot afford to ignore, or minimize, the extraordinary contributions America's business women are making to our economy, our culture, and our future. The achievements of women entrepreneurs are undeniable. Women-owned firms generate almost $2.5 trillion in revenues. They employ more than 19 million workers and are the fastest growing segment of today�s economy. In my home state of Maine alone, more than 63,000 women-owned firms generate an astounding $9 billion in sales," said Snowe. "Today, I am pleased to join Small Business Committee Chairman John Kerry and Senator Sununu with this amendment so women small business owners have the resources, the support and the opportunities they need and deserve."
Senator Sununu said: "Women's Business Centers contribute to the strength and diversity of the small business community, as we know from the great example set by Portsmouth's facility. Centers that have performed at a high level should have the option of applying for additional help to enable their important work to continue. The Senate�s action today marks an important step in the effort to preserve critical funding for WBCs in New Hampshire and across the country."
The amendment is similar to language that passed out of the Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship last summer as part of S. 3778, the comprehensive Small Business Administration reauthorization bill, which is based on the Women's Business Center Sustainability Pilot Program Kerry created in 1999.
Specifically, the amendment allows established Women's Business Centers to apply for 3-year grants on an ongoing basis. This permanent stream of federal funding is critical to helping the Centers secure matching private funds. This amendment also prohibits the Centers from sharing information about their clients without their consent, unless the information is required by a court order or to do an audit of the center.

Any ideas why?
my EAD app was delivered to tx on 3/29, and I got a text on 4/6 saying it was accepted and routed to VSC. A few days later, I got the notice in the mail.
