First, I am not promising to solve anything. I am just saying that I will bring up the issues when I have my meeting. If this thread is a distraction, then feel free to ignore it.
Second, those who have participated in this forum over the past year know about the issues I was working on.
Third, the forum moderators have my contact information and I have corresponded directly with them (Aman Kapoor). If you don't believe I am who I say I am, feel free to contact the mods.
I am not sure what the point is about "innocent Indians." Does it really matter if I am Canadian? Is this forum restricted to South Asians?
Totoro,
Thanks for responding., we appreciate it.
Good that you took it in the right spirit. All the efforts you are trying for us are inline with what even I wanted to do, but dont have as much access as you do. Search the forums with my id and you will see for yourself. To my knowledge there are very few who can do what you are doing. I wish Moderators and IV Core endorse your efforts in the form of a campaign and you will see much more participation. Look at the other drive they are doing for create a fund of $10000.00 If they endorse you (thats we) will get response in that order. Can you please ask Aman to do that, and that way we will have more voice.
All,
I am not sure if most of you guys even remember what my group said. We WILL contribute even $3500 and more, if there is a campaign for EB2 and EB3 and for guys waiting 5-10 years . Not sure why most of you, even senior guys(by join date, and not by # of posts) just rememer the $3500 part all the time with my name :) but miss what we said. Go n read it again.And if Core endorses does effort, I will not be surprised if there will be contribution from as much as 5000 members each of $100 on avg= $500,000. No kidding, thats the pain EB3 is facing.. Anyone to disagree??.
Gangutelli,
Gantuteli is real or fake.. similarly. Did you put all your details EXACTLY.. You know the answer.. Be little practical and have some profile that is like yours atleast.
Where were you before Jan 09..Didnt hear about IV before??.Flower campaign that hit the news.. You appear to be very emotional, with very less maturity.. Nothing personal, anyone here sees it.. check them yourself with a mature friend.I know you will post 1000 posts in the next 1 month. Tell me the secret how you get that much time(I am begging for few extra hrs in last 1 month), but only in case you have a job. Else we know.
And I said I will contribute $50 to FOIA campaign last week but did not send it yet. I will do it today. This is not in response to you Q reg contribution.. If you noticed, no one responds to your posts.
Did you create any new thread with some ideas, good or bad... Please respond to this last line, for sure..and if so, can you give me that link..

Hi,
My labor certification was filed in Dec. '06. Since its date of filing, the online case status was showing as "in process". However, on 07/20/07, last week, the status changed to "case denied".
1) What are the next steps?
2) Do I need to refile the labor certification. If yes, how soon can it be done?
3) Can it be filed for the same position or it needs to be filed for a different position?
4) Should I find a new employer to file for labor certification as my current employer could not get my labor certification approved or I should stick with this employer itself and file for a new labor certification?
Please help me out.
Thanks

Our problem is like a bus, stuck and needs a push. You may think "what will a single push from just me, do". I may think the same too. So we both and all who think alike will not do anything.
Instead. Do whatever u can. Here pushing the bus is doing your part.. write to media, reps, whoever you think.. I know many people out there who do this, I am one of them very dedicatedly doing it.. but these efforts are not sufficient. Dont wait for anyone to come and help you.
Again, you must be a fool to wake up suddenly NOW, and not in the last 5-7 months. There is nothing to hope for, with 2000 or 3000 cases approved every year. Simple mathematics.
I can imagine there are 90% folks who gave up, do nothing.. Dont do that.. even if its a small effort, yet do it. And tell us what you did.. That will motivate us, and I may do better.

Admins or mods must change the title of the thread. This is going to disappoint a lot of our friends in this forum.
Well this thread has a good begining and then some suspence and then a dose of harsh reality.
Isnt that the story of some of us who came to US with a rosy picture in our mind and worked hard and the immigration system in the country gave us heartaches and headaches!!
It also tells our members how difficult getting a law passed is. We all need to work harder and harder to get anything done. We need everyone's full support in order to achieve our goals.
Good night!!

It is encouraging to know that your case is assigned to an officer that you raised an SR on Aug 3rd. An SR was raised for me on Aug 3rd as well and the customer service rep mentioned that my case is also assigned to an officer...
So, Will Aug 18th be "the day" to look for ?? :D
Good luck to you and let us keep all of our friends posted on the same

I do not think anyone is accusing IV of taking sides. I do not think they ever campaigned for EB2 and not EB3, The point is completely missed. But the movement happening is for EB2 only and not EB3, so it is only human for EB3 folks to see and feel depressed that nothing is happending for them.
Not few days ago, the administrators have themselves mentioned that there is no hope for EB3 unless a CIR is brought in congress and the only other thing for folks to do sooner is to Port, and which we all know only a few can do, not everyone...
In the light of all this...are we not missing an action plan????
I have contacted my lawmakers, sent letters to them...and its not even a long time since I joined this forum...the point is how do we make new people motivated?
I have failed to see where IV has been showing discrimination or bias towards Eb2 versus Eb3?
Not taking up a specific Eb-3 cause does not tantamount of neglecting Eb-3. Has IV done something in past 'proactively' for only a certain category of Eb? If not, then how can we accuse IV of ditching Eb3, at the same time?

Can someone help me with this...
As per the new rules for indian passport nenewal, you are supposed to fill an online form which would prepare a PDF file with your entries , and then you have to take a printout and submit it at the cosulate.
But the problem is, there are many more questions in the PDF from which are not even mentioned in the online form.
My dilemma is,
What do I do with the entries in the PDF form (passport) that are NOT filled by the online form ? Am I supposed to fill them by pen or just leave them alone ?

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.

I don''t feel America is an immigrant country any more we may well be make an history here as the first batch of legal immigrants returning back to our own country.
It is naive to think that law makers does not understand our plight, they are very well aware, they just need more H1bs, temp workers program to bring in slaves to work for their benifit

An attorney I know told me today that:
(1) they believe EB2/3 mid-month retrogression is unlikely in July based on coversations with relevant folks in govt.
(2) USCIS is unlikely to want a spirited fight from AILA by retrogressing mid month, especially given the fight that's already on about June EB-3 unskilled
(3) The June EB-3 unskilled mid-month should be viewed in the context of the just 5000 visas that were left.
I am not going to qualify the attorney by firm name or with adjective phrases such as "very high profile." Nor am I going to quote the attorney in multiple colors. Posting it here for what it's worth (even though I realize this would sound totally bogus if I were to start this post with "a bird told me that...") None of the above is secret knowledge; apparently other AILA attorneys are also up to speed on these points.
In any case, however relaxed attorneys might be, we should probably work on trying to hit that ever-moving target of "as soon as possible," if we want to see the smile that an EAD card will bring to dear spouse's eyes.

I sent it on Thursday Sep 11th before hurrican IKE to CGI Houston. Money order was cashed on Sep 23rd. Sent $60 including the express mail for returning the new passport. I haven't received yet. Calling them doesn't help a lot. Does anybody think going in person will help? Do I need to get an appointment to enquire about the passport application? Thanks in advance for your help.

H1BLegal95,
I couldn't agree more with you. This is the worst thing to happen for ppl who have been patiently waiting in BEC lines since 2001 !!! Essentially this means that dates will get current for all the PERM filers since Mar 2005, giving them the advantage of AC21 while leaving simple ppl like you stuck. And then by the time your labor gets approved dates may not be current anymore.
But unless you are the type of person who's willing to get into buying labor certification there is nothing you can do! Is it unfair, hell yeah! Life's a b****. But remember you are getting screwed now others have either been screwed at some other point or will get screwed later. We all get screwed :D
anandrajesh,
Are yuou out of your mind? You are asking a man who has been waiting in line since 2003 a spoilsport? If he was really a spolisport who would bought his way out by now. You want him to celebrate while you get AC21 and he's left waiting again? You have some nerve!
Why do you want a spoilsport bro. Everybody is rejoicing this moment. Let us not spoil everybody's moment here. I agree with ur reasoning, but the fact that everybody can apply for 485 brings justice to everybody. My PD is Mar 2004 and i am equally happy for all who can apply 485.

How long was your I 140 pending and what is the dob of child?
Not sure if I have given full details of my sons case but here is the situation
1. In 1998 husband moved to us on L 1 visa
2. In 2000 company filed I 140 for husband and approved 2001, within one year of I 140 approval filed I 485' for all residing in the USA at that time and concurrently file I 824 for minor child abroad - was was to follow to join-
per instructions on I 485 application
3. The child's I 824 was pending at enactment of cspa with no final determination, so should be covered under limited exception
4. Oct 2002, received letter from uscis, (did NOT say son aged out) to say file new I 824 once husband had his green card. Sons age for cspa EB3 20years 8 months
It appears the file became separated, (IN error) so son's I 824 was worked before husband's file was complete
5. Sent new I 824 when hubby got green card and this was approved Aug 04
6. As , no news from consulate/NVC by Jan 05, got congressman's help and took till Oct 05 to received an e-mail from consulate to say son aged out
Was getting paperwork ready to file law suit when husband died very suddenly. They agree with 95% of our claim but say now hubby is dead so is the case.
My attorney say's we are suing for the mistakes and so not relevant that husband has since passed, I will let you know how the case goes
