By grace of Almighty, finally my Inbox received the email from USCIS that I was eagerly waiting for.
Just few minutes back, I received the Email from USCIS for myself, my wife and daughter saying "Current Status: Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident".
It's a long journey started in August 1997 with landing in Washington Dulles Airport. Got a chance to start the GC process by filing Labor in 2001. The labor approval didn't come until 2007.
In 2004 had to take a transfer to different company which caused me to start the Labor again in Nov 2004. Lost the valuable 3 years of PD date.
Finally the approval for 2nd labor came just right before 2007 July Fiasco. Luckily I had my attorney filed my application on July 2nd itself. And Rest you know the story.
All throughout I was on H1B, on permanent employment and never out of status. Never had any problem with Immigration process except for the GC delay. In any way it was an interesting journey, making new friends, had the chance to live in SFO, LA, New Jersey, Virginia and currently in Maryland.
Many thanks to IV and its members for providing the wonderful platform for sharing and collaborating for common cause.
I wish all the best to all those who are still in queue. Hang in there. Your turn will come.
congrats and Best Wishes
10 years and still waiting
My case is also similar to yours, My 1st labor was filed 2001 March, and I had to switch my employer and the 2nd labor was Sept 2002, Again I had to switch the employer, And finally 3rd labor was filed on June 2004, cleared around Dec 06 from the BEC .
Still waiting for GC with the Valid H1 ( Until Feb 2011)
I am waiting for the magic email.

Application efiled at NSC on April 14.
Still no sign of the EAD
NSC is slow compared to TSC and also they start the EAD on the day it is approved and not when the previous one expires.
Somebody, needs to take this up with the Ombudsman due to difference in the processing policies and times for EAD renewals.
Application received by NSC on April 8th.
Still no sign of the EAD :mad:

You have consistently abused me and other members on this thread who tried to talk sense and call us really nasty names. i will not stoop to your standards of language.
You have proven by your lack of knowledge and filthy language that you do not have the common sense to have a meaningful conversation.
Hope you get the therapy you need really soon...otherwise I feel worried for the people around you who are exposed to your violent and abusive behavior.
Glad you finally realized it.
No one has doubted your effors till now
Yes, and pappu actually works actively for IV provisions and guides us, instead of complaining and making senseless NOISE like you are.
Yes and i am making a point that he is in a minority
I thought you did not believe in name-calling. Looks like you change your opinions and stance as per your convenience and frustrations.
Who started it.from now onwards you will get what you give
This is an empty claim created by you alone due to your paranoia. Its all inside your head. Again.. empty vessels make lot of noise
Now that statement that empty vessels make more noise is itself indicative of your ego and how bloated it is and how superior you feel w.r.t others
Very mature, my friend. Hope you get the good sense to stop abusing folks here and actually doing some good for the overall EB cause. Stop spreading these conspiracy theories and fears..we all have enough on our hands already. You DO NOT represent EB3 here. You are just a frustrated and embarassed person trying to hide behind your username and venting out against some hypothetical problem you have created in your head.
When will you get it into your head that no one (least of all me) is abusing folks here. I would assume that that a sane person would recognize the fact that a section of EB folks are falling through the cracks and i would certainly not expect you to even recognize this fact because you are EB2. So if a person tries to discuss about something related to EB he is frustrated and embarrassed but when IV talk to USCIS about EB backlog you are Advocating and Lobbying. Now that is the best example of Hippocratcy i ever saw. (How on the earth did you come up with that reasoning)
Please get some help. And spare us another 1000 word essay. I think we have heard enough. Find another place to get some therapy.
The person who has no more valid argument and keeps denigrating the other person who is trying to present the point of view needs some help. Just because you say so does not mean anything. You do not have any argument so you have to fall back on something ridiculous. I empathize with you and feel sorry for you.
And how many times do i have to say this a 1000 words essay is respecting your point of view you bigoted idiot. That means how ever mean and bigoted your comments are how much ever i disagree with you I am replying to your arguments point to point. Now god knows you are are a stupid bigoted person but if i am making an effort to reply to you point by point the least you can do is be civil but i am asking too much

Guys,
We need your time, your enthusiasm on the advocacy days. IV is a grass roots organization. You are the grass roots.
We face problems of backlogs, and career uncertainty. IV is offering a solution, if implemented, it will bring relief to all. IV needs your help to deliver what you and I "NEED" AND "WANT".
HELP IV HELP YOU.
We need heavy participation on the lobby days, I need volunteers from different states to ask me "How can I help?" instead, I am trying to find volunteers! I have been able to persuade members who have received GCs to help out, but getting members who are still in the mess are either unaware of the advocacy days (in spite of the thread running on the home page for the past month) or are not ready to talk to the employers to take the two days off. Capitol Hill runs on weekdays and therefore it is necessary for you to take the time off.
Come on guys, you can do better than this. Donors, members, guests - we are all in this together!

Yes, you will need to send the original passport along with the filled in application...Since the passport is expired for over an year, check this out:
Quote:
When should you apply for the new passport?
i) Apply for reissue of Passport if the final (F) validity is less than one year. For example, if your passport is expiring on 31st Dec. 2008, you can apply for a new passport from 1st Jan. 2008 onwards.
ii) The Passport should be renewed within one year of its expiry. If for any reason you have delayed applying for a new passport beyond one year after expiry of your passport, an affidavit stating the reason for delay sworn before a Notary or a Consular Officer should be submitted along with the application.
:/End Quote
For more info on Consular Services from Houston, goto: www.cgihouston.org
Thank you! That does help. I shall provide an affidavit.
And the link is useful too.
Now a general question : for kids of 5 or 8 year old, the application should have their 'thumb print', right? It does say "thumb print of applicant or legal guardian", but I see no value in signing for them - there's no way to identify the child if I sign there... Or am I missing something why it's better for me to sign? (There's two places for signature/thumb-print : to sign for the application, and also at the 'specimen signature' spot).

Is there anyone whose case was transferred to Local Office and got approval ? My PD is May 24, 2006 EB2 and still no change in status.
Hi,
What does the notification from USCIS about the case transfer say? Does it just say that 'case is transferred and is now being worked on at USCIS office' or does it actually spell out where was it transferred like 'texas service center'?
In two days, I received two such notices, one in which case was transferred to TSC and next one received two days later which does not identify which office it is transferred to.

I am not sure if a letter is going to help. I was going to suggest an SR but in your earlier post you said that your SR didn't work either. But if you are going to send a letter then I would suggest sending it to NSC. Your lawyer would have the address.
I also know that sometimes people write to their congressman asking him to look in to the case but I am not sure if that's a good idea.
The HR Manager at my company wants to send a letter inquiring about the status of my 485 application. My PD is current as of April VB and my RD is within the published Processing time. My application is at NSC.
my question is: what address do they need to send the letter to?? or is there another way to do it??
Thanks

I and manish flew monday morning sept 17th on a short notice to attend 11:30AM appointment and then again at 3:30 PM with nagaraj.
We had 2 more appointments on 18th with NH senators.
All the meetings were great and one them exceeded 30 minute schedule to 50 minutes.
It was great to meet all the members like aman, jay, paskal, kanika, meenal, nagaraj, pappu, gopal etc.
Paskal: Where is my beer?
Gopal: "Don't shoot the messenger" in the situation room.
jay: Speech pointing fingure to capitol hill behind him. "We are here on offence".
Mike: Step1 to step 5 entertainment
These are some, but not all, of the memorable things in DC.
I really had to mention pappu seperately.
He is a dedicated person to this cause and needs special mention. I really enjoyed his company in the bus on our return journey to NH. We shooted all possible questions and got convincing answers.
Thanks again for the wonderful experience.
It was a true vacation.:eek::eek:
Folks if you want to know how to handle an interview... learn it from Pappu!! He was smooth (read slippery) as... soap?... hell anything that is smooth :)
Pappu... any training you can give me? :eek:
I may even be able to pay you... once you get your EAD! :)

Well I responded in Oct 2008 and it had RFE status. It didnt change for the past 2 years and it changed to "RFE Review" yesterday. Is this just a coincidence or something to extract out of it ?
For RFE rebuttal, it will remain in the same status until it is approved. You should have contacted them after 60 days of your rebuttal. But as of now, it is fine I guess.
My friend had very similar situation. His status remained as REVIEW until it was finally approved. So no need to worry.

An idea:
Is it possible to recite the oath of citizenship in front of the senate en-masse? And maybe get some reporters to report the event..
Another, letter campaign, in which people will sign on the oath and snail mail to WH and also local senators
These might bring attention to us.. but feel free to knock it down (or ignore) if sounds absurd

I asked the admin and other senior people. But no one bothers to respond.
I have been in touch with the the administrators and they have been very prompt and supportive regarding this initiative. We have been communicating almost on a daily basis.
Like any other initiative or the campaign, the more people and voices we have the stronger the campaign is, I am glad to see the 50 number mark but if we need to make this a solid campaign we need to have at least twice as many people as what we have now. Imagine how many people apply for LC, 50 of them having issue with the process is not going to convince any body that there is a problem.
I am still trying to get people together but that does not prevent us from brain-storming the ideas or even taking actions that does not require a mass scale of support from other people (e.g. lobbying with politicians, etc.)

Eb2 category gets 28.6% Visa number. Any spillover from EEB2 will only go the EB2. Why would USCIS change the rule and allocate the visa numbers from EB2 to Eb3. This does not make sense. I agree that spillover from Eb1 can go to both EB2 and EB3. There is no way this argument will fly that EB2 numbers be allocated to EB3. This is a statue and USCIS cannot deviate from that. They will face a lawsuit if they do so. USCIS is using the correct spillover procedue and I dont think they will change it. The only argument EB3 should make it that spillover from EB1 should go to both EB2 and EB3.
It is not individual qualifications that matter but it is the job requirement. So if you are in EB3 try to port it to EB2. Nothing else will matter.
