we have 1000s of people debating about a bill on IV, but there are less than 10 people actually talking to the lawmakers to get the bill to come on the floor.
The real work is to talk to the lawmakers so this bill has a chance to come on the floor, if and only if it comes on the floor, we can then discuss how we can tweak it to benefit all EB Categories and add ammendments.
Otherwise, it is just one of the 100's of bills that will never ever even be debated.

He is from CA...not sure where this came from...looks like political posturing but good to know someone trying to address EB backlogs...I'm sure that IV leadership is aware of this development - thanks for sharing!

I came across this and it seems one IV member has posted this
http://kcdesi.com/kcdesi/index.php?option=com_classifieds&Itemid=56&oglmsg=_OGL_APPROVED
hope other members also do such efforts to help increase IV membership
I posted a similar post at http://www.desiconnectionusa.com/ few days back. I was still thinking if it is a good idea .. now as I see Pappu is saying to make similar efforts, I will probably start a new thread.

Got greened finally. Just checked today morning. (Both me and my wife status changed to CPO)
It shows the CPO on 08/05/2010. No e-mail /text message
Was cheking my mobile once in a while to get text message from USCIS, but no luck, may be due to their system isssues yesterday.
PD: Jan 13th,2006
140 AD: Oct 17th,2006 ( from TSC)
I-485 Filed myself, sent the application on (06/30/2007) to reach NSC on 07/02/2007.
It was transferred to TSC.
RD: 07/02/2007, ND: 09/04/2007.
(Did not used attorney for I-485 as I thought they might mess up the application due to July Fiasco)
Applied 3 EADs for me and my Spouse. Applied one AP in 2009.
Actions taken by me:
Spoke to IO on August 2nd and he told that Case assigned to officer on July 28th.
Sent an e-mail to tsc.ncscfollowup@dhs.gov on August3rd. (Got reply on Aug 5th, that case is reviewd by officer)
Sent an e-mail to Streamline.Tsc@dhs.gov on August 3rd. (No reply yet)
Raised SR on August4th (No response yet). (I don't think it made any difference).
Applied for AP (on July 26th) though i don't need now. [thought it may trigger GC approval, Check was en-cashed on 08/02 but no receipt yet]
Working with the same employer for the last 4.5 years..
I went to Infopass twice in last 2 years...but they did not revealed any info.
My GC journey ends after 6 years of arriving in US (on H1).
Will be contributing to IV soon...:)

I will elaborate. EB2 was current untill September 30th 2005. So where does the 2003 "screeching blah blah" come into effect?
Besides ike I have posted countless times...there were only 2000+ approvals for Labor certifications for India between march2005 and october 2005
and only 7000 labor certifications for India between march 2005 and december 2005.
These include a number of labor certifications for other worker categories. I myself saw at least 500 pipefitters and welders and joiners whose labor certification had been approved from Louisiana (maybe cos of katrina)
so if the priority dates have to move for EB2 they will move to jan 2006 (like the chinese have) or remain at 2004
there are also a TON of filers who filed in first quarter of 2005, mainly to stay in the old system, as people were scated of the new one (PERM). maybe 300-400 of those are from where I work (they also incidentally started processing GCs again from Q4 2004 after layoffs in 2001-2003. So expect a bump before we get into PERM, but as you say after March 2005 things should be smooth till 2006 Jan

GC wait is a slow poison. everytime you compromise on the career front you console yourself saying it is a small thing, but when you look at it in hindsight you can see how this process chokes your career slowly. well we should think about those less fortunate than us and move on.....
I thought i was the oldest, but someone got a GC this week after 16 yrs wait. my first attempt was in 1998 sept (never filed and sat in the lawyers office for 6 months) while i was working hard. Second went into NY DOL (2001) and after 4 yrs my company shut down - labor was in backlog center. Last attempt started in 2005. Aug 11th it will be 15 yrs. Not sure what i am doing here or why i am clinging on to this. Hanging in the same field, no growth and no enthu. Most of my friends put up their citizenship oath taking pics in facebook or are back in india
we waited so long, hang in there for a few more days. hope all will be fine.

I have been continuously requesting in my previous postings that CORE Team should take up the issue of sufferings of children who have turned 21 and who could not file 485 applications due to visa retrogression. I do appreciate that this may not impact a large number of our members and CORE is committing its recourses for a much wider issue of over all visa number increase. However, getting visa number increased is a big effort and in current environment may not be achieved. However, getting CSPA amended may not e that much a big deal and if CORE team starts working on it, we may see positive result. As such, I again request CORE team members to take up this issue. I am prepared to lend my support in whatever way I can and I am sure there would be many other members who will be willing to do the same.

It might have been answered before elsewhere, but I'm wondering about the logic on how the spillover visas are allocated. Would have been nice if the spillover visas are allocated to oversubscribed countries instead of categories, this way 10k spillover visas that EB2-I is getting now will be distributed equally between EB2 and EB3 ... I believe that's one thing IV is going to or has taken up.
Looks like parents did a good job of taking both the sick kids to hospital, but the doctor treated only one kid saying that the second untreated kid is not good as the one getting the treatment :D ... if the 2nd kid survives thru the period of time the 1st kid recovers without any treatment, then the 2nd kid will get the treatment.
LOL, why am I extending the topic ...
I for one would like to know exactly what IV is planning to take up for the cause of EB3 before contributing.
Good and very valid logic....
I am also EB3 (waiting for 6 years now) but I totally disagree that IV is baised against EB3 or favoured EB2 in anyway, we are not heard as fault is ours. We we want something for us to be done then our actions shold speak for all of us just not me or you). Either we put up a fight for our cause (there are chances we will loose) or just submit to our doomed fate. The choice is ours gentleman. I don't think we have tried enough to finally call it quits.

On thomas the link always goes to a temporary search listing which cannot be replicated. So here is how you get to it.
go to
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/vote_menu_110_1.htm
click on H.R. 2 which is on 2nd row.
then click on "Amendments" and find SA187
Now this page show that it was agreed to. Also the link to the page is shown.

When USCIS has so many I-485 applications, they will have to sort them in the order of PD. Your PD is older and you will have your GC first. However, its unpredictable when you will be able to file I-485.
They will be opening up dates slowly in the Visa bulletin going forward. However, they would open up 2003 PD before they reach PD 2007. You will be able to I-485 then and will have GC before someone whose PD is in 2007.
message from IV
Despite the offensive posts and badmouthing on IV site and other sites we are keeping everyone in mind when working on our lobbying effort. We had posted messages in the past about this too. IV does not advice any flower campaign etc without consulting with us. Any wrong move can potentially hurt the interest of this community and the advocacy work we are doing. Please stop posting offensive messages and stop fighting with other members of the community.
=======================
Message from IV for BEC victims
We are aware of the issue and if there is any acion item, we will post it.
also be aware of what we posted earlier on this issue:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6084
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?p=100024#post100024
=========================
=========================
Years we have been told priority date establishes your place in the queue.
We have spurned job offers and declined the new PERM process to hold on to the priority dates.
Many are still awaiting labor certifications from the backlog elimination centers. Out comes USCIS and says everyone with a LC can file I140 & I485.
People still waiting for LC with priority dates in 2003-2004 are seeing applicants who have priority dates as late as 2007 but with approved LCs through PERM walk through to I485.
Net result, USCIS is going to be flooded with applicants enough to retrogress the priority dates 3-4 years back as early as september. (Everybody with a LC will be able to file for I485 in July). So applicants with priority dates of 2007 are going to get EAD and GC, while LC backlogged 2003 applicants to have to wait for another 3-4 years before they can even file I485.
Aint fair. Aint fair at all. How can this be. How can rules be changed in the middle of the game.

I am opening a new thread to post all updates on the CIR. It seems today is a crucial day when the house comes in session and work on forming the committee might start. If people hear any updates you can post in this thread.
I read on immigration-law that conservative republications are trying to torpedo the CIR with a new technical legislative argument. It sure is going to be a difficult task to have this bill passed since house has republican majority and they are saying in the media that they will not have the bill passed.
"Report indicates that the House hardliners who opposed the Senate-passed S. 2611 have come up with a weapon to block the House-Senate Conference Committee and the S.2611. The weapon they have hammered out involves a constitutional issue as to whether the provision in S. 2611 that requires guest worker applicants to "pay the back taxes" as condition for the legal status constitutes a federal government's measure to raise the revenue. These hardliners argue that the U.S. Constitution mandates that any legislation to raise revenue for the government must originate in the House and S. 2611 violated the U.S. Constitution by originating such legislative bill in the Senate. When the Congress returns on Monday, there will be a see-saw fight between the S. 2611 proponents and opponents on this legal technicality issue. One wonders how the House hardliners would defend their prior violations in the past in another legislations that involved such legal technicality issues. Besides, there is no clear definition as to whether such back-tax payment requirement indeed constitutes a revenue raising measure. "

Sorry to hijack the thread.
My passport expires in June 2009. I have a valid H1B notice till Nov 2010. I was planning to get my H1B visa stamped on my passport. My lawyer asked me to renew my passport before I go for stamping. Will the indian embassy renew the passport if my expiry date is more than 1 year from the day I sent them the material ?
Someone please advise.
Also, I am sending all material to Washington DC. Do I just send all the material listed on the website ? Don't I have to correspond with them ? I can't seem to get anyone on the phone.

Raising $300 or $500 per membership is a very reasonable amount. If you try to join some other Running Teams, you will have to raise in excess of $3,500 in 1 year. And the only distance you can complete is a marathon.
I have run over 12 half marathons, 6 races in excess of 13.1 miles and 1 marathon and I learn't that a marathon is not for everyone - that is why we have included distances like 5K and 10 miles in our event list. This is a great opportunity to pursue a healthy lifestyle and in the process support IV's long term lobbying efforts. Lets not forget what IV has accomplished for us in the past 12 months (resolving the July 2 Fiasco, Multiple Year EAD).
This is an earnest call to all walkers, runners and supporters of IV. Come join Team IV!!:)
We are slowly building up our membership this week, and I am very thankful for those who support this initiative and those of you who have already joined up, we still have quite a ways to go to reach our goal of 150 members. Help us support IV.
Please also invite your friends who are not members of IV, to join us. Please have them e-mail me at TeamIV@yahoo.com so that I can e-mail them the Team IV Membership Form.
