Hello,
I have sent my Passport for renewal to CGI Houston, TX. I have shipped it via FEDEX on Oct 19 and it reached CGI Houston on Oct 21. It was signed by some one by name Kohli.
In the Site its mentioned, the renewal will take 7 business days. Based on this thread, I see that it might take around 3 weeks time
Can anyone tell me, Whether CGI houston communicates to us once the passport is dispatched? Will they give FEDEX / USPS tracking number to track? I want to make sure that some one will be at home to collect it.
Thanks in advance

There is no point in educating a mass of angry, frustrated EB3-I folks.
By preference (a LEGAL statute), EB1>EB2>EB3
For spillover (a LEGAL statute), EB1>EB2>EB3
EB1-I get their GCs in about a year.
EB2-I get their GCs in about 6 years.
EB3-I get their GCs in about 8 years.
SO WHAT IS THE BLOODY PROBLEM??? Wait your turn patiently like everyone else, or upgrade your skills and education to apply for EB2 jobs. Stop bitchin' and moanin' and trying to find shortcuts in life. There are none.
Please IGNORE I_Got_Skillz and lets continue healthy debate. We should not let person like this create distraction.

You don't have a choice, as far as I know. If you're in NY, it has to go to Atlanta. I'm from NJ, went to Atlanta. Atlanta is very very slow. I've been waiting for three months now.

once USCIS gets a visa number from DOS for a "pre-adjudicated" app, it has to complete the approval and assign the visa number within 7 days, if not the visa number has to be returned back to DOS.
In this case they requested too prematurely.

Thanks sravani,
So will the doctor still give me a report even if I don't complete all medical exams?
Also on a side note, Do you know how long does it take to get the report once the tests are done?
Thanks

i don't get it you are saying that members don't have to search...and yet someone has to keep it up on the home page...which is it? yes a sticky thread would have saved work and not required someone to keep it up. Why wasn't it done in the first place. When a service is supposed to be offered every week...it should be offered every week...or else there should be an announcement that is will not be offered this particular week and that it will continue next on said week.
1. Threads cannot be a sticky on the home page. However, threads can be made sticky in the forums page under the sub-forums. The sticky thread on the Ask the Lawyer forum. (The http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum68-free-lawyer-conference-calls/1900583-free-attorney-conference-calls.html)
2. The aim is to have conference calls with Lawyers for free every week. We have gotten 4 lawyers to do it for 2 consecutive days - consistently. I need one more lawyer for the fourth week - here is a task for any member who is interested. Find me a lawyer who is willing to give 1 whole hour worth of advice to our members for free, preferably on a Thursday (to maintain the same day in a week) consistently year round.
No reason to be frustrated when people are asking simple questions...another idea would be to put the answers to the most frequently asked questions on the FAQ page...which does not work right now....so that you don't have to repeat the answers.
Its an easy solution i think.
Any member who is willing to spend a few hours on a regular basis, please help us with a FAQ about the site. Some of the answers are already in the forums, you just have to put them under one umbrella. Please let me know who wants to work on this project - individual or group effort.
Giving a long lecture of frustration is not the best way to attract people to an organisation.
Think about it...do u go buy clothes from a store that voices their frustrations about the prices of raw material...of do u go buy it because they were nice to you...had great customer service...nice selection of goods...and fair prices.
I am sorry but working for hours on end alone, voicing frustration at lack of participation, treating members like they are morons for not being able to find supposedly simple things is a really terrible way to attract more people to an organisation. The cause may be noble...but who will wanna join some organisation where people just complain about how miserable things are.
Please pause for a moment and think about what i am saying. This is exactly why you have less participation and less donation. IV needs to transform into a vibrant fun place to be while still upholding the noble cause.
Let me be clear, the only way IV knows of treating its members is with RESPECT. If it was not with respect or the understanding of the struggles each of you go through - our motivation to continue this cause would have long disappeared.
If there is frustration on our part, it exists within us, we hope for better, but the frustration (or anything else) has never stopped us from providing the service or executing the tasks.
The "frustration lecture" as you call it was not meant to be a lecture - which goes to show that it is very difficult to control the tone and message on forums. Many people have questions, and since the topic came up, I shared some of my thoughts - to give members a peek of how things look from the inside.
Not all our volunteering members are from DC area, they are as widely spread out as California, Minnasota, Florida, Texas, Mississippi, Tri State Area -- you name it, we have dedicated volunteers. Distance need not stop anyone from volunteering.
I am not sure how much "hope" is selling for these days, let me know :) - Trying to make this a fun and entertaining forum :p
Today is March 27, 2011. And I have 2 Tasks for interested members.
1. Find a fourth lawyer to give advice for free for an entire hour - preferably on a Thursday.
2. Help in compiling a FAQ, that will assist any new member to find his/her way through the forums.
Thank you guys for starting this conversation.

My Attorney has sent in more than 2 inquiries with DOL and each time we get the same boilerplate reply saying you are in queue and we are processing it. This is an automated reply as few of my friends even got the same reply with no change except case number.
Also as for as i know there is no time limit as such as 4 months to wait before contacting DOL.
When I called the attorney she try to look up the audit reply status and read that sentence containing 4 months wait time to me from the website. I do not know how far it is true but this is what she said.

Anything with the legislative effort aka unused visa recapture will not happen in this political environment.
My only question to the EB3I is,
Do you want to wait until the visa recapture, when ever it happens or will it ever?. More-over this has been taken up by many people in this forum and fizzled. To add more, do you know what will happen when un-used visas are recaptured ? Will it benefit EB3I or will it be given to EB2 just like the spill over. Would you do something right now to atleast get some short term relief to EB3I ?
I am here in this thread to understand what we can do for EB3I immediately. I presented an option when somebody asked in this thread. If you want to take it or leave it, its up to you to decide.
nyte_crawler I gave u green because I really appreciate you keeping the argument civilized even though we both differ in our ideas. Now just to take things a little further. You have pointed me that I am arguing to keep spill over as it is (in favour of EB2) because that will help me. I would argue the same that when you say immediate help for EB3 I feel that is because that will help your case. Tell me how does it help Eb3 with PD 2004 and further. Rather it would be in their interest to cross port to EB2 since they directly become current rather than wait for spill over to reach their PD which is good 3-4 years away. So my argument is there are three interest groups here
1) EB2
2) Eb3 prior to 2004
3) Eb3 2004 onwards.

There is new data available regarding the PERM LC data, like how many PERM has been approved so far, I have tried to copy and and paste, but could not make it work. To sum it up, it is very bad for indian born applicants, while China Mainland is not too bad, since they have far few people in line comaring to Indians.
I can find the link for you guys. It is seems with any policies changes, it will be decades for Indian priority date to be surrent.

above post has lot of spelling mistakes and is misleading too ..texas is bit better but owning is cheaper only if prices are increasing at inflation plus 1 or 2 percent minimum. (and this may not happen for 4-5 years ..once prices start to increase..your calculation becomes applicable)
if your mortgage is 6% and the forecast is that home prices will fall 10%, then your interest rate effectively becomes 16% plus. the only advantage (or disadvantage) in a home is the extra space.
and in current economic situation, the extra space, payments, headache, immobility is more of a headache than quality
Sorry, its fixed now.

Going back to the original subject of discussion - before the thread got hijacked by plainspeak and some really divisive and dangerous viewpoints -
This is typically what anti-immigrant and competitor websites do, they never donate or take part in advocacy activities - like PlainSpeak. examples of anti-immigrants are numbersUSA, FAIR and many others. your game is up, you can leave this website.
They pick up a thread that educates members about advocaccy and pretend to have an argument and completely divert the topic. If people have questions there are better ways to talk to management or core.
There were very valid posts about meeting lawmakers and requests for ideas for a better EB system, which were all supressed thanks to the negative campaign.
Admins please delete posts of PlainSpeak as his goal is to hamper advocacy efforts.
This is a grass-root effort and there is no nice way of getting rid of weeds.
Freeloader weeds are just filling up our Server disk space that we pay for, with their bullshit.

When my lawyer applied for my H1B extension she forgot to apply for my wife's H4 extension (Form I 539). Now after about year and half when we are preparing to file for our 485 status adjustment we she found out that she forgot to apply for that. So she is now filing the Form I 539 with an explaination. So that means my wife has been out of status for almost more than a year now unknowingly. How much of a chance does she have to have her form I 539 approved now? Any response would be very much appreciated.
Thank You
It is very likely that I-539 will be approved without new I-94 and she will be asked to get new visa stamp and re-entry in US.
Not a legal advice.

My apologies for hijacking the thread, but since many who have experience with the renewal process are around here, i am posting my question.
Does anyone know how many photos to accompany the passport application. The checklist on the application says 2 while the SFO consul website says 6.
Has anyone applied from SFO ?

I guess we have enough people convinced and for those short sighted ones will have an option whether they want to get naturalized or live on their dear GCs so by that time if they educate themselves they will be convinced too.
Now what are the next steps in chanelling this effort through IV Core?
One's life time is too short to determine whether changing citizenship to US citizenship is worth or not. And hence to define it as a "wisdom" or "short sightedness" is also almost impossible. Two school of thoughts can just pop up 1) What would be the gain vis a vis loss changing citizenship 2) why one should get rid of the citizenship where one was born. And both of them are more realted with philosophical and moral issues rather than short term material gain...

My last one filed on April 2. In "Process". Whether filed onlined or mailed, PERM is processed by DOL federal centers in Atlanta and Chicago, as far as I remember (mine went to Atlanta -the number starts with "A). Why is the guy talking about particular state? Only PWD is acquired from the "state workforce agency"( the actual names differ between states).
