Till early part of 2004 or latter part of 2003, most of the Indians applied EB3 very few applied EB2. After 2004, it was reverse. I doubt any one appled EB3 in 2005 0r 2006.
If EB3 stays continously in 2001 and EB2 in 2004 (there is 3 year difference in cutoff date between EB2 and EB3 now), the guys with EB3 PD 2002 and 2003 will convert to EB2 by applying new 140 to transfer PD. This flow will balance the cut-off dates. Eventually it will reach a common ground or a break-even point.
I doubt that people try to change from EB3 to EB2 , given the fact that they need get I140 approval which is taking more than 14 months and USCIS announced recently that, they are not bringing back I140 PP in the near future.

Yes He is correct. You have the full June to file.
Can someone elaborate on this. My attorney said the PD that it HAS to be ON OR BEFORE June 1st, If this attorney is right I would LOVE to know;)

Yes, that is what the trend look like. There is probably another 5-10% fall in the works. Perhaps even more. I agree with you on that.
However, the million dollar question is how do you know the prices have actually bottomed one? Won't you go ahead and buy if its affordable, instead of wasting precious years which shorten the career span and deferring your decision? Its almost like deciding when to have your first child...well..almost. There is never really a good time, is there?
By affordable, I mean its around 'x' times your (dual) income, you have your green card and you are prepared to live in the US for next 5 years at least (even if there is any family emergency, you don't have any compulsion to sell off your assets and move to India for good). Now, 'x' may mean different for different people but generally people seem to agree x = 3. And I also agree with you that it might happen that american housing is always affordable. Yes, it might but for most middle class in SFO Bay area, when x was 7-10, it wasn't affordable at all!
I completely oppose folks like Slumdog doing something terribly rash (no gc, no prospect of gc within a year, single income with a baby, baby having some health issues and to top it all the burden of a heavy mortgage on the shoulders, god, I think his situation is simply awful...) but the way I read it is that these indeterminate immigration waits are making people throw caution to the winds.
And I don't agree with folks who feel that buying your house is like renting it out simply because it is mortgaged. There is big difference, eventually its get all paid off and you start actually owning it. Secondly, for a lot of people that they can sell it during their retirement and use the sale proceeds to cover the retirement life. There is very good chance real estate would have appreciated over long term. Of course, you are just interested in 'flipping' you are asking for big trouble.
If you think renting is not 'quality of life' and you see it is affordable and prepared to lose money go ahead and buy. On the other hand, if you don't mind renting and don't feel like losing your hard earned money wait for the downturn to be over.
The rate of fall is so much that it is better to lose on the rent than buy and lose over the next years depreciation.

I got the "card production ordered" email today which probably means that the gc application has been approved.
Here's the info for immigration voice team/users' tracking approvals
my PD is nov 2005.
Receipt date: 7/31/2007
center: nebraska
I got married last year and the lawyers were about to file the follow-to-join application for my wife in the next couple of days. But my application seems to have got approved first. Has anyone been in this situation before?
thanks!
VSC - This actually may not be a very good situation for you. Now that your 485 has been approved and you are a permanent resident - your wife's application will fall under the Family 2A GC category which has a wait time of somewhere around 18 months or so. Again this is my understanding of the law...I do hope for you that you don't have to wait that long...

I live in PA and I was wondering if I could do tatkal at the NY embassy? I'm totally out of pages but I have about 2 years validity left so can I apply for a new passport with another 10 years and tatkal at NY?
Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for trying to keep the focus on the solution.
I like pursuing option 3 and 2 at the same time. We don't know if option 3 requires a law change so need to clairfy that. While we prepare the slides/etc I think we should contact USCIS first and while working with them educate the law makers on EB3 category based on the points similar to below.
The fact that EB3 category requires less experience than EB2 shouldn't be looked at as EB3 applicant is less skilled. Infact I have applied EB2 twice and now in EB3 and I do have US masters and 10 + years US experience. It all depends on company's attorneys comfort level.
It shouldn't be viewed as we are taking visas away from EB2. Infact we are requesting realisitic approach to the skill sets. Instead of EB2 Current and EB3 at 2001, EB2 can be couple of years ahead of EB3.
We can come up with many ways to explain the injustice but it is time we ACT. I am with you on this.
Lets not get sidetracked by Mr Skillz with a Z.
Options for EB3I relief:
Option 1: CIR - This is not in the picture right now. Nobody knows when this is going to happen and I think we should not even bother to look upon this as a short term measure.
Option 2:Recapture of visas - Again this has to go through the legislative process. With the current political climate, it is going to take a tough task to get this one in as well.
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
Hopefully that can change their mind or atleast we gave our best shot.
Add your thoughts and inputs and let us create a plan on executing this, if folks want to do it.

Hi Folks,
My PD is current but my lawyer is saying that I CANNOT file I-485.
Reason:
My labor cert / EB2 was originated in Illinois and then amended for Virginia by G-28.
Since my labor cert approval, i moved to Califonia - same job, same company.
Now my lawyer is saying that I need to go back to Virginia so i can apply for I-485.
Question:
1. Do i have to go back to the same state/location at I-485 filing stage where my Labor was originally approved?
2. Doesnot Green Card is for a future job?
3. Can i file I-485 while I am in California and my labor was approved for VA?
Please advise - thanks

We have 2 threads talking about the same topic.. contribution .. While it's good to see both threads getting lot of hits, I suggest that we merge both of these threads so that we all get on the same page. Half the members are responding in one thread while other half are on the other thread and I think it's kind of distracting.
Mods, if you agree please merge the threads.

Guys, here the form to file a complaint on L1A - EB1 misuse by indian IT companies

Here's the process..http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/fts_wh4.htm
If you have a genuine case and know the company name who resort to these shady practices, Please fill this form and send it across to DOL. You do not need to provide your personal information if you are not willing to.
Rest, they will investigate and take care..
I am one of those who couldn't file in EB1 but that is past and long gone for me.
You need to write to USCIS and Ombudsman. Labor department does not approve such petitions.

Hi Santb1975,
We are working up to it, and either GoIV or myself may partner with you to run/walk the Houston Half. Working on it now :) will keep you posted!
