Should I narrate the story of the 'success of microsoft' and its history?:); You guys are no less than 'Bill Gates' for us!!!
I'm smiling. We will certainly try, but the part above (clout etc) would be an overstatement of our current levels of access. :)
Note that these are the same agencies that have been resisting our efforts to get even the most basic breakdown of data.

Calling all EB3 INDIA applicants with a PD before October 1, 2001.
Friends we have been current since November 1st of this year. Many of us still have not heard anything about our cases. If you have this PD you have already been waiting over 7 yrs. What should we do to get USCIS's attention to look at our cases. It seems service requests are useless. They send the same old letter to everyone and thesere is no action. Whats our best options. Lets gather and look at ideas on what we can do. We know USCIS is so random.
Friends this is very imp for us. We have already suffered the most and are the most behind in dates compared to any other Category and country. We waited in pain and silence for years for our PD to become current. Now it finally is but still we see no action. Guys speak up lets try to do all we can. In this economy last thing we need is a waste of our 7 yrs of waiting and our files falling through some crack because of a random USCIS process.
Any thoughts, ideas ? whats worked for others and whats not. Will we get our green cards while we are still alive ????????

I might be wrong, but I think the way it works is by supply and demand. If the supply of new visa numbers is much less than the demand, the dates might go back.
They worked enough for this year and they have lot to do. According to my guess they have the following pending work.
1. Issue Receipts (Sep/October)
2. Issue EAD cards for approx 300,000 applicants? (October/November/December)
3. Issues AP for 300,000 (October/November/December)
On top of this they need to celebrate thanksgiving and christmas like every citizen. So don't expect too much from them for this year.
If at all there is some momement in EB numbers, that will happen only between Jan-March(before H1-B madness starts).
Good luck !

Hey Sparky_Jones,
You are the first guy whose case was transferred to CSC and you got the FP notices. Can you shed more light as many pople, like me, are stuck with no FP notices and we all had Receipts/EAD/AP from CSC...And now the files are back to either NSC or TSC...
Thanks!
Sure, what additional information are you looking for?

Also Mr O said out look for Eb2 india is grim and could have delay for decades .. where Eb3 india can be set to Oct 2001 in oct 2009. His whole prediction is based on current demand from USCIS.
Lets says he USCIS has 50k Eb2 india and 70k Eb3 india in back room. Now they both have 3k visas in a given year . if USCIS process ( Pre adjucted ) 40k Eb2 india cases and 4k Eb3 india and bring to DOS , DOS may think there are 10 time more cases in Eb2 india so it can take decades while Eb3 india has only 1k extra so it can be in a year. but reality is different.
hope that makes some thing clear to members..
Agree with that as well...that may impact PD determination (and it MAY), but the fact is:
EB2 and EB3 India people with PD after 2005 (just an arbitary year) will not get GC unless there is spill over....it will be 20 yrs without spill over....

hm... So why are you here, in Immigrationvoice ???
I too like everyone else on this board am in this seemingly endless EB queue (6th year in the GC wait). I was just trying to send a message to folks out there that carve your life based on what you want to do, and if you can do what you want to do, just take it a bit easy and don't miss out on the fun things in life while this wait persists.
I have gotten to the 2 houses and 2 jobs all the time while being on a H1 is because I never put my life on hold because of the GC wait. Just had faith in my qualifications and skills, and the confidence to be able to find a H1 job in case of a job loss.
Sure enough, I had a job loss last year and here I am - back on my feet in 2 months - found another H1 job and am making more money than the previous job. Only thing, is my PD got reset and the wait will get even longer...it is still not going to stop me from moving forward...I have more plans for the next 2 years including possibly starting a business with a US citizen partner. Am currently looking into the possibility of filing a 3rd concurrent H1 for that.
Moral of the story, don't put your life on hold because of the GC wait....GC is not in our hands...why worry so much about something on which we have very little control over. Too bad, this government doesn't care about this massive highly skilled workforce and are treating us so bad. That shouldn't stop us from living life at our terms (for the most part of it).
What we can control is our destiny and as long as we worry about that and give that a proper direction...GC or no GC...doesn't matter so much..

EB2 likes visa bulletin predictions.
EB3 does not.
That explains the green or red in my opinion.
I hope once DOS decides to change the spillover and give the extra visas to Eb3 (whoever ROW , India....). The ensuing discussions from from the self glorified EB2 crowd here would make for an entertaining reading. I would like to see how much they enjoy the predictions after that.

Good work.
Please send an email to Varsha or Sanjay asap with exactly what you have posted above.
I would request everyone who finishes the meeting to :
1. Prepare a summary like Gajendra has done above, and email that to Varsha and Sanjay. Do not post here too much details.
2. If you do post details of your meeting here to encourage others by telling them how good the meeting was, please do not disclose the names of staff members you met with. But put those details and names for followup meetings in the email you send to Varsha and Sanjay.
Thanks.

Here is my timeline:
Filing : Paper Filed
Mailed: 9/27/2010
Rec'd at NSC: 9/29/2010
Document Mailed" Email Rec'd: 02/12/2010
I-131 Received in Mail: 05/12/2010
So, from the time they received it to time time it took for me to receive the document is 66 days..not bad at all, considering what some other poor folks are going through.
There are other guys here at work whose time line is nearly same as mine, give or take a week. One fellow got his in 50 days. He has travel coing up in the last week on Dec, so he had called to check on his application. During the call he mentioned travel in last week of December. He got the approval email later that day.
My AP got done in time but the EAD was huge headache. God bless our local sentor, who was able to get my EAD expedited, hence was able to avoid the scary job loss scenario.
While it seems like consipracy theory, but I do believe that all these delays are intentional, squarely aimed at making the lives of to-be immigrants so miserable that that they have no choice but to leave.

How many days before expiry can one apply for
1. EAD extension.
2. AP extension.
3. Since EAD extension is possible only because of 485 pending, is there a chance of risk, if employer withdraws 485 for some reason.
Thank You,
Bobby.
Robert Kumar:
EAD renewal can be filed 120 days prior to expiration.
AP renewal can be filed 120 days prior to expiration
EAD extention is possible on the basis of pending I485 application. This I485 application belongs to the applicant (you, spouse, family members). Your employer does not have the authority to withdraw the your I485 application. Your employer however has the authority to withdraw the underlying I-140 application.
If you have an approved I-140 and your I-485 application has been pending for more than 180 days, the revokation of your I-140 application by your employer will not have any effect. it may trigger an interview or an RFE for you to prove valid employment, which you should be able to prove (pay stubs, employment letter, tax returns) and beyond that there should be no risk what so ever.

I haven�t got a chance to see the actual RFE notice yet, but as per my lawyer it�s for the TB test. The doctor skipped the TB skin test and we both did the X-ray which came back negative.
Does anyone went to a different doctor that the one who initially took the test. I relocated since I took the test, and would like to avoid the 4hr drive.
Has anyone seen a different doctor after getting an RFE. Or should I have got to the same doctor.

Folks who got Rn is no more interested in Voting or talking about RN.
They are opening threads for FP Notice etc - they are not looking backwards at us - What are you planning to do ?
- My lawyer wants to refile (with no addional lawyer fees). Does it make any sense to re-file?
- Is there a vote somewhere that shows how many july 2 files received receipt notices?

Folks,
I cannot seem to find the section of the bill re: invalidation of pending applications, that is causing everyone so much heartburn. Someone referenced section 502(d)(2), however if I look on thomas.gov, that section of the bill is about per country limits. Can someone supply either a) latest version of bill text or b) correct section reference regarding current and pending applications?
Regards,
- GS

Hi all,
Now H1 period no longer counts against H4 period. As H4 is allowed to do volunteer I work, I had taken up few Volunteer Projects and done some Open Source Projects for keeping my Skills updated.
Is it advisable to put all these expeience in resume, while applying for a new H1B or only professional experience should be shown on the resume.
Advice please.
