H4-B renewal end of April 2007, H1-B applied in April 2007
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will this be a problem?
I need answers to following questions.
1) Can i apply for mY wife's H4-B renewal while her H1-B application is pending?
2) What will happen, if here H1-B is approved after H4-B renewal is applied and before her Renewal of H4-B is approved?
3) What will happen, if my wife's H1-B is approved before H4-B renewal is applied. On what status will she stay untill Oct 2007. Does she have to go back to India and come back with a visa stamp?
Appreciate a response.
Thanks.

-Visa Recapture
-File I-485 irrespective of PD
-Stop counting dependents against quota
-USCIS backlog should be transparent so one can predict his turn.
-Remove Country cap. Its unfair for people born in india to wait decades while other nationals get their visa almost immediately.
Family reunion should be very important. I am separated from my wife for 3 years now because of Jul'2007 fiasco. Sent many letters to Senators, President, vice president but nobody is bothered to look at my case

I predict that the EB3 and EB2 cutoff dates for India will reach close to each other with in next one year. At the worst, the differnce between EB2 qnd EB3 cutoff dates may be maximum of one year.
For that one of these two should happen. Eb3 should move forward and Eb2 should retrogress.
Or EB2 stays and EB3 alone moves forward.
Or EB3 stays and EB2 has to retrogress so much (to 2001)!
I guess chance for 1st and 2nd option are high. And, this would answer Ramba's question how EB3 for India would get approval for PD 2003. There are very few 2001 PDs left (per me). Relatively more 2002 and most of 2001 and 2002 are pending due to name check else they would have got their GC during July and USCIS would not have returned VISA numbers back to DOS nor some numbers would have finally got wasted (FY2007).
So next PD would be 2003 (and there are very few 2003 filings that were filed before June 2007).

Hi all
Conference committee and its proceedings are always closed-door things. Remember there is alittle one can do. also considering the gravity of the situation, i'd say just wait. i know that's not the best scenario but it is what it is
i don't think the committee not yet formed, in the first place and there is no time line / rule that guides about conference committe proceedings
conference is closed door (except for one open session) but appointing conference committee is not closed door

My labor process started in June 2003 and filed on Dec. 2003; Yew York EB2 -INDIA. It was cleared from BEC 2006 October. Like me many from NY/NJ/CA stuck in BEC, so we are able to apply I-485 in june 2007. I think EB2 2001-2004 April from NOv. VB is right. These people will take 2008 quota. So people after 2004 period need to wait for 2009 quota.
When Jun-July 2004 PD will be current? Any guess?

Here is the most up-to-date list of people who have reported their issues with the audit delays:
http://www.mediafire.com/?a3znd69ymyz
I think its about time that we start brain storming the plan of action, I did like the idea of rally but that had its own Pros and Cons. We need more ideas coming from the people...
I was thinking that we could draft a letter of request to DoL and have all the members sign on it to reflect the massiveness of the issue that Management needs to know - this is becoming a major issue in the EB immigration process. We could then write up a follow-up article for newspaper or even provide a copy of that signed letter to them. Any input to this?
I have requested IV Admins to provide some input as well, but if you have any ideas please speak up!
Here is what one of the IV administrators communicated to me:
"In order for anything to be successful, it is important that we get as many people affected involved. Based on the number of people who wish to take part in solving the issue we can initiate a campaign.
Pls let everyone know that IV can help them. We need everyone affected willing to help themselves by coming out and actively participating in a campaign."
So please, dont disperse or lose hope, we need to gather more people to support the campaign, once started.
Admins: I am unable to add the files as an attachment, even after making sure that the file size is under the limit. Am I missing something?
May be we can get help from our respective congressmen/women's help on this.
Any idea?

Which is first? Egg or Chicken?
If we have enough budget, we can hire good lobbying firm who can then guide us. Without any contributions, we can not even approach the lobbying firms for any help. The contributions that we make are not even enough for maintenance of this web site.
Why not you guide us? Hire a lobbying firm and inform every one here that it will cost this much and this is how you want to do?
I am not part of IV core. if all of us contribute big money, we can hire the best lobbying. We saw the last results.
The points you are trying to tell contradict the point that you are not part of Core. So lets not look into their account books or ask for any reports how its spent. I trust them on that.
Now chicken or egg??.. Good question..
Remember one man who walked with nothing on, except a small waist cloth, very old yet with a motivation to free his country and who did succeed..How was he able to raise his voice when there was no internet or radio. People felt the pain and when one man was leading it, they expressed it.. peacefully mostly.
If we watch videos of the the campaign he did, you will easily realize that that needed money too.. Where did that come from.
Here too many of us feel the pain. EB2 or EB3.. we dont deserve this crap nor did we dream about. Did you think about this when you first stepped into US, if you did more than 4 years back???. NO.
The point I am trying to make is, one you start walking or working in the right direction and motivate people, then contributions and efforts will follow. You dont need to explain so much. Money is not a problem for many to contribute a little.. Afterall it helps them right.. If you take the lead and tell us or start a big campaign.. WHY not the FLOWER CAMPAIGN once again.. Isnt this the right time. It can work anytime as long as the problem is genuine. Why dont we do that. When CIR is talked about by the president, and when undoc workers are doing a march again as one guy here says, then what makes us the legal guys, to sit and wait and predict visa bulletins. EB2 is 04 now.. Next month that will change to U. Do you want to wait for that.
We need a FIX.. and that has to be said loud and clear.,
Sorry if I'm offending anyone here...

The amazing thing is We Found all the things we lost. I found the same pair of glasses Twice! The owner managed to lose it again in the situation room and I found it again - I think he didn't like the glasses :)
Chargers and ties were lost and found. I think after working 3 days straight, without much food/sleep and thousand and one things on our mind - we too were lost :)
Meenal
Speaking of ties... I met a volunteer (I think his name was Rajesh or Ramesh) at the registration desk who "loaned" me a tie for my Lobby meeting. When I asked him how I can return it to him he said "just give it to any CA members. I'll get it"
So please friend... whoever or wherever you are thank you and please send me a PM so that I can mail it back to you!

ChrisRock, Raju & other EB3 members must realize as long as members like I_Got_Skillz are here who are lurking just to ruin any EB3 conversation, it is very difficult to come up with a solution.
Also, the idea that an EB2 is more skilled and EB3 is not, is wrong since EB2s are nothing but the same qualification with a few more years of experience and EB3s are the same but who have been misguided by the attorneys when retrogression was never there.
Example, in my case, I have a masters, 7 years of experience before starting my green card app. Currently, I have a total of 15 years of experience as of today working in various domains.
In my opinion if you are looking for a solution which is more radical but practical, it should be in a way where there is a highly skilled category which should be more like EB1 and the rest. I think EB2 should be eliminated and merge both EB3 & EB2 candidates and do a FIFO processing. Isn't this the way most of the countries in rest of the world gave their process?
These are all changes which cannot be done due to politics, but in my opinion is the right approach.
Even some of the IV state chapter leaders etc are people with EB2 apps and they shoot down anything which works to their disadvantages.
It is only the IV Core & a few other members which really care about the backlog irrespective of category.
Please note, I am not naming any state chapter leaders in particular, but I have observed via threads & posts how their line of thoughts are.

I thought, 15000 members was a small goal. But I guess we have to start with even smaller goals. I agree with Amit.
There's too much at stake to give up this campaign. Without membership, we are a weak bunch. To fight organized campaigns by groups such as Numbersusa we need the member strength.
Let us aim for 8000 members by Jan 15th. Current membership stands at 7919. We need just 80 members to reach the 8000 mark. If 10% of the current membership brings ONE member by Jan 15th, we can easily reach that target. With 300000 immigrants in this kind of quagmire, cant we get 80 people? I believe we can.
Let's join hands one more time and try to Add just ONE member by Jan15th. It is for our own sakes we will be doing it, so let's do it!!!
Admins,
Please send out an email (monthly newsletter) to all members informing them about this campaign.
Thank you.

Congrajulations to each one of you, we only need 37 members to reach 8000 mark. Last night we needed 80 members to reach 8000. So we added a good 43 members in a 18 hour period.

On June 14th the Visa Bulletin was published for the month of July, and all EB1, EB2 and EB3 green card cases are current starting July 1st, except "other workers". We have learned that this was done to ensure that no employment based green card numbers will be unused for the 2007 fiscal year, which ends on September 30, 2007. As we reported in a prior Immigration Update, an employment based green card cannot be approved without a current priority date. Additionally, the third and final stage of the green card process, Adjustment of Status or Consular Processing, cannot be filed, unless the priority date is current. US Citizenship and Immigration Services will be flooded with I-485 Adjustment of Status applications on July 2nd, the soonest the cases can be filed. Processing times for the Adjustment's interim work and travel authorization are expected to increase beyond their current 90 day times. USCIS has confirmed that Adjustment filings must have all of the requirements (medical clearances, birth certificates, etc.), or the application will be rejected. The priority dates could retrogress to their current levels, or further back, as soon as August 1st, but definitely by October 1st, once enough green cards have been issued for the 2007 fiscal year. Unfortunately, with the end of the comprehensive immigration reform bill, mentioned above, we are not likely to see an increase in the number of employment based green cards anytime soon. Once an Adjustment of Status is filed, an applicant can continue to secure work and travel authorization extensions, until the Adjustment can be decided.

Hi guys,
I am sure it was exciting news for us to hear. However, it appears the Immigration provision were removed before passing the bill. This is another proof that the IV core are right on track. It appears like they have good information and that immigration-related bills and changes will be passed in immigration bill itself and not attached to other bills. I think the congress will address the all the immigrant issues in a new CIR or some new immigration bill.
