BREAKING NEWS: LOFGREN GIVES USCIS THREE DAYS TO ANSWER QUESTIONS
http://blogs.ilw.com/gregsiskind/
Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), chair of the House Immigration Subcommittee, sent Secretary Chertoff a list of questions and a request for documents from USCIS to get to the bottom of the whole Visa Bulletin fiasco. The letter is very interesting not just because it puts a heck of a lot of pressure on DHS right now, but also because Lofgren's folks imply from the questions that USCIS was short circuiting established security clearance procedures to "pre-request" visa numbers from DOS. If it turns out full security clearances were not carried out, USCIS will either need to say that they had the legal justification (which would be a public relations disaster for the agency) or that they intended to complete the checks after the fact (which would be a direct violation of their own regulations). The only way to avoid answering the questions and to make this go away would be to eat crow and start working the case July cases.

My experience with CGI houston was after waiting on call for 1 hr in queue with counting down my position in queue, IVR informed me that "No one is available to answer my call press 0 for operator" , this goes in loop. I never was able to speak to a person any time during my passport was with CGI houston.
My advise if you are dealing with CGI houston is Send your passport and forget about month or so you will receive renewal after month.

BharatPremi, do you know if one can have both 485 and CP processes simultaneously?
SIMULTANEOUSLY you can't have both. Either AOS or CP. One can covert one from another but it introduces enormous delay. AOS-to-CP atleast 1 year more delay and for CP-to-AOS at least 3 to 6 months delay.

Thanks for your response.
If you have an argument with some members on the forum, I think it should be restricted to just that. Calling every EB2 applicant a bigot is rude and uncalled for.
My colleague who recommended me to this forum is an EB2 applicant and is supportive of complete EB backlog elimination and is active in the IV state chapter inspite of getting his green card last year. Even the EB2 applicants on this particular thread have largely tried to point to how we should focus on the larger issue instead of fighting among ourselves. If you do not believe in IV, thats your choice - but I think we need this platform to achieve any relief for EB3.
I look forward to working on IV action items and lawmaker meetings. lets get this issue resolved for every EB applicant
Hear that you EB2 bigoted persons. Here is An EB3 person who is supporting IV inspite of what ever is happening. Will this open your eyes to the fact that EB3 folks are not against EB2 folks,but all that they want is that they should get some measure ofjustice.
Mr gc_dream2009. I feel a respect for you which i do NOT feel for EB2 folks who have tried to denigrate whatever i talked about (Must be their superiority complex)
I would now like to comment on some facts which are result of my observation over a period of 3 years starting from 2007 till current date
The only proposal which helped EB3 is July 2007 fiasco with EAD and AP benefit and before we give thanks to IV please remember that back peddeling by USCIS was not just because of just IV but also because of strong pressure from AILA. If EB3 benefited from July 2007 fiasco it is only because EB3 was part of all the EB categories and not because IV was aware of EB3 plight.
Now after July 2007 nothing has been ever done to relieve pressure on EB3. All the benefit have been provided to EB2 and all EB3 is told is after EB2 gets current EB3 wil get benefit but nobady talks about EB2 never getting current and the fact is EB2 will never get current and till that time EB2 will get all spill over visa and EB3 will get 0 (Zero) spil over visas

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.

My attorney says he cannot promise June 1 filing b'cos of volume...but not to worry b'cos date is current the entire month of June. Is that true? Does FIFO matter?
Thanks!
PD current as of June bulletin...after 3 yr wait!
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;)

I have mixed opinion about that. Say, hypothetically she attends rally, then everyone is going to think that she is biased towards legal immigrants.
It would be better if people looks at her as a non biased person, her word is more powerful that way.
Its just my opinion.
Please inform her about the rally in San Jose on Saturday. It would be great if we can get her support !

Thank you for contacting me about the DREAM Act. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue.
Our immigration system is broken and needs to be corrected. I agree with the principles of giving aspiring students the ability to follow their dreams, complete college, and contribute to our society and economy. However, I firmly believe the separate passage of the DREAM Act would hinder our ability to ultimately pass comprehensive immigration reform and voted against it when it came before the House in December. We need comprehensive immigration reform now�for fairness, for families, and for our economy.
If we focus on only one aspect of immigration reform, we will not solve our problems. Such an approach unfairly excludes many important interests and groups from a solution. Employers need access to the legal immigrant workforce necessary to keep their businesses growing and should not be asked to act as law enforcement or punished for hiring folks with false identification if they made a good faith effort to authenticate it. Given the practicalities of the situation and our current budget constraints, we need to provide a path for legal status to those already in this country, not just for students or those serving in the military.
American jobs and businesses depend on a comprehensive immigration solution. Oregon�s own Coalition for a Working Oregon has done research showing how bogus impractical deportation schemes would lead to a loss of 76,000 jobs for legal workers in Oregon. This drop in economic activity would cost the State of Oregon as much as $656 million in revenue and lower small business income by 8.5 percent. It is time now for comprehensive immigration reform. It is the right thing to do for those who want to contribute to America, for our economy, and for our country. Half measures no matter how well intended undermine our ability to get to the real solution�comprehensive immigration reform.
Although the House of Representatives passed the DREAM Act on December 8, 2010, the Senate failed to invoke cloture, the procedural vote that is required to end debate and allow a final vote. As a result, the DREAM Act was not considered by the Senate prior to the end of the 111th Congress and legislative efforts must begin again in the 112th Congress. Please be assured I will keep your opinions in mind as the debate continues.
It is a privilege to serve you in the United States Congress.
Sincerely,
Kurt Schrader
Member of Congress

I applied for 10 years passport extension ( old one issued from india) on March 05.2008 by Fedex. CGI Houston received it on March 06. Couldn't contact consulate employees as no one picks up the phone.
So went today to CGI Houston to check the status personally.
Checked with mail room and came to know that they had posted the passport yesterday. I received it in Fedex today. CGI mail room even provided me Fedex tracking number.
Old passport issued from : India
CGI received date: March-06-2008
Completed processing: April-12-2008
Fedexed the passport : April 16, 2008
Received new passport: April 17,2008
CGI Mail room keeps track of the passport status. They can lookup the applicant name and find the status.

At the outset, I fully sympathize with ur situation. It is just a pathetic state of affair and very unfortunate. It eats my heart out to see that future of our aged out children in the USA is affected by the stupid immigration rules and hence affecting their lives and career.
Having said that, if you are looking for IV or Core to do something about it, I would like u to consider few things:
a) IV is purely made up of volunteers and whatever any time we can get after a day long work or taking care of family matters , we dedicate to IV matters.
b) This implies, the issues that concern most of the people are generally taken on priority. Moreover, the unfortunate truth is that there is also self interest involved. Everyone is a victim here and would like to further self cause over other. If the self cause of majority is aligned, that makes into the agenda. After all, after lots of efforts if you get to meet any lawmaker just once for 15 minutes , which agenda would you push for?
Having said that I would recommend you to form a group to lobby your cause. I am sure IV will lend it support to let it run its banner. But the strategy, labor and money would be coming from the victims.
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.
