Keep us posted.
I spoke with IO on 3rd, initiated SR on 4th, initiated congressional request today i.e. 5th. My Infopass is on 11th. Will complete 10 years in US on 13th. Birthday few days after that. So I guess something should work...ROFL...

EB3-I=U.
Whats difference in today's bulletin or the ones we saw from Oct. Almost nothing. You should be a fool to expect to hope for anything with the movements we noticed.
I would say this should be taken as a starting point to put some efforts in making the law makers and othere aware of EB3 problems,. I am sure the predictors will now keep their "mouths" shut for the next few bulletin but atleast some of us put some efforts.

Could you elaborate on the harm that would cause us please...
I would like to understand this system.....
You have to understand country caps for that.
Today, the law states that:
Give 7% of 140,000 visas(annual quota) to each country. After that, if there is leftover visas, it can go to countries that need more than 7% of 140,000. Today, India and China are only 2 countries that need more than 7% of 140,000. Eventually, each year, India and China get a lot more than 7% of 140,000.
If you change the law to remove the clause that says "you can allocate leftover visas to over-subscribed countries", then India and China would be severly affected and the leftover cannot be used by them. It would either be unused (wasted) or flow downwards to EB5 or family based.
last year, the hard cap gave a big headache to us for 2 months. Then thru Immigration Voice's efforts, Sen Brownback proposed an amendment to remove the country cap and allow 485 filing when visa numbers are not available.
Brownback's amendment was folded into the last minute manager's amendment(Sen Specter was manager of Senate CIR by the virtue of him being the chairman of Sen Judiciary committee). And we got rid of the hard country cap that would have been created by CIR.

I am a strong supporter of IV , its cause and one of the state chapter leaders . And I also believe that IV's goal should be clear and focussed, but this is an issue that eats my heart.
What kind of justice it is, where people are rewarded for breaking laws and those who followed it are made to suffer.
We are here in the US not only for ourselves but also for the better life to our children. If we can't give them that then our living in this country is worthless.
I also think that this issue should be part of IV top agenda among other things. The folks in question are not illegal but our very own in EB category. They are the greatest victim of the system. When I look at my sufferings , it is less compared to what these people are going through. My green card may be delayed but most likely will not be denied. Whereas, their green card is as good as denied.
While I am writting this and putting myself in your shoes, I feel helpless and hopeless. If IVians won't help here then who would?

I never said all this crap. you could be what you are.. There are probably more qualified people who didn't get a chance to get the same f***ng benefits you enjoy.. IV is trying to help them.. It is impossible to show that because of your 100$ bill, you GC is printed 20 sec faster.. If you don't believe in what is going on in IV, take a hike..
Yelling will not make anyone to donate.
If organizations like AILA, IV did not raise questions, who could have the potential to change a revocation memo issued from Washington DC?
Like thousands of applicants who did not donate, I was a beneficiary of July 2007 fiasco.
Whether others believe it or not, I realized that there was something IV did.
Eventually I started the donations.
Though very negligible against others who make $300, $500 frequently, I am not afraid of making them regularly.
It is not for what IV is going to do for me, but for what they have already done.
So, if someone has not realized the benefits, explain them. Yelling equally makes all of us in the same plane.

imh1b and snathan....i respectfuly request that you'll refrain from calling anyone names....there is no need to call people fool/drunk/moron. I am quite sure youll are educated professionals that can think of better ways to make your argument.
bitzbytz was merely suggesting ideas...no reason to diss them...unless you have tried these yourself and have statistical proof that it won't work in other cities in the country.
bitzbytz....so say you need convincing...fine...what questions do you have about IV?
As you can see its an organisation of volunteers...and there is no PR department :)
IV's main goal is to clear the green card backlog...do you share this goal and believe in it? if yes...then contribute...even if you fully don't agree with how IV operates or responds
As you are well aware there are not too many organisations pursuing this cause so you can either help this one...or sit back and hope that one day Lawmakers will out of the goodness of their hearts do the right thing...lol you know that ain't gonna happen...with IV you have a bunch of others co-ordinating towards pushing Lawmakers for change
StarSun...i'll help with both the tasks you mentioned. My lawyer already gives free advice in several LA univs so he might be interested in this.
My questions...says he is interested...what does he have to do to participate....is there a number to call for the conference call....or a special link where he has to go to join the chat? which thursday of the month is he needed...is this fixed or does it change every month?
To be honest i never visit the forum page unless i need to search for something and thats very rare....can we put up a link or an Icon with a tiny banner advertising the free lawyer phone call on the home page?

I have paid SSN for many years now even I have received a letter about 3 months back stating I am eligible for cetain Social Security benefits .. and how many points I have accumulated so far.
Every month I pay this amount towards SSN. After paying SSN for many years, I still stand no privillege of early Green card, I am still stuck in Green card process.
I am sure there will be many people like me.
I also hate loosing SS Taxes. I mean we dont have any security in this country. We get 60 days to pack up if we loose our jobs and then they collect SS taxes from us. This is insane and a gross abuse of people on H1B. I think we are equally to blame to continue taking the abuse as the abusers. I fully support the clause that Green Card/Naturalization is a priveldge and not a right, but robbing me out of my money is not. I do support filing a lawsuit against this fully. I am sure if we pull one years worth of our SS taxes, then we can pay for this suit. We might win or loose but least we will have peace of mind that we faught for the right cause.

I have been swimming and strength training for quite some time now and have started kettle bells and Taek Won Do this year. I do see a lot of women working out. All I am saying is that these forums have a lower proportion of females.......pure statistics.
And yes; there are a lot of females working out and the ones who do take up martial arts are more serious than the guys. However the most common excuse cited by the ones who hesitate to take up running/walking, is security. I am trying to get the ones who are not working out to get out; the ones who are; have a lot of tenacity.
.............BTW, be nice to me. By the time you come to DC to run the race, I might have my brown belt :)

E-filed EAD renewals for self and spouse on May 5 with Texas Service Center. Supporting documentation received by TSC on May 12. Card Production Ordered email received for spouse's renewal on May 14. Seems rather quick! No biometrics appointment received this time. Wondering if my approval will also follow soon. Also wondering if renewal period will be counted from expiration date of current EAD (current EAD expires Aug 24, 2010).

This has become a ranting thread of EB3 folks. One simple question:
How many of you EB3 India folks who are complaining actually went to Washingtno DC last month for IV Advocacy event?
I hear it was not even 250 people. If you take out all EB2 people, so few EB3 people. This means EB3 people do not really want to do anything but after every visa bulletin come to the site and rant.
We in EB2 do not have much to worry. Our dates will move fast. But you EB3 had a chance last month and you blew it by not doing anything. So stop complaining.
I dont think we all are complaining...We are just thinking out loud hopefully some solution / direction comes out of it. But one thing is sure people certainly did not like your attitude.. It could be that you are deliberately trying to instigate something just for fun or maybe you are having a bad moment or may be none of these, I was just trying to think the rationale behind your comments ...(could be even u just stated something and people didn't understand whatever u really meant and applied thier own interpretation)...only u or god knows the truth...I dont have anything against u and know for sure that even u dont have anything against us.

"It is possible that the filings could be discontinued later in July"
I just wanted to share this information with you all guys. I am not gaining anything by putting this in this forum. If you feel like taking it, take it else ignore it. There is no harm in sharing.
And let me say for the second time...It is always POSSIBLE that USCIS may stop accepting applications mid month...does not usually happen, but these are unusual circumstances...but this is nothing new.
As has been discussed innumerable times on this board, plan on submitting your paperwork by the 10th to be on the safer side.
By starting a new thread, and putting a sensational heading on it...you don't help anyone. It is advisable to go back and check if this issue has been discussed on some other thread

Better to renew right away. You can renew up to 6 months before expire date.
Expiry date is 15 months away. Can I still renew? I'm not too sure but I guess one can't renew before 12 months of expiry date. Is this true?

Bill Text - 112th Congress (2011-2012) - THOMAS (Library of Congress) (http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c112:H.R.43:)
That link has the complete text. Relatively simple text. Includes those who have completed degree in last 5 years or those who have resided in the US since obtaining a degree.
Only one constrain. Requires that "will substantially benefit prospectively the national economy of the United States". The second part is something which is fuzzy and not sure how USCIS will interpret it. They might apply the logic of EB2-NIW. However, in either case, it is adding numbers of EB categories and hopefully rest of the bill is allowing for these numbers to fall across and down.
If the applicant has completed masters degree in U.S. after filing Labor /485, does he get benefited with this bill ?
Thanks,

yes, the goal was to be a 10,000 member community by Dec-31st.
We have not achieved that. Lets shoot for becoming a 8000 member community by Jan 15th. I think smaller goals are more easily achievable.
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!!!

Hi,
I did noticed in above 485 document requirement it states Copies of Form 1-94 and H-lB visa stamp , do we need to have H1 visa stamp on passport ? Will it not work with H1 Approval Notice ?
can you pls respond
Bhavesh
Look at your H1 notice carefully. In the bottom left portion it says I-94. If your Visa Stamp has expired along with the I-94 that was issued to you when you last entered the US, then the I-94 on your current H1 approval is what they expect to see to make sure that you are currently in status within the US.

Guys, let us leave no soldier behind. Let us work on the number of years taxes have been paid + no criminal record. This will include all those who have been here paying their dues at work or at school. The point is: one behaves responsibly like a US citizen for many (5-10) years, yet do not have a shot at permanent residence, leave alone citizenship.
