I am assuming that IV has resent the message to all members. However, I still got nothing in my mailbox:
"Welcome, Spatial!
You have 0 unread messages:"
Looks like most of the people online are not seeing this thread at all.
May be the Title need to be changed.
"URGENT CONTRIBUTIONS NEEDED. TIME RUNNING OUT. NOW OR NEVER" kind of...
People might be thinking that this thread is to discuss Integrity of Core Group.
Someone from Core group pls Update the Link and see if it works..
My 2 cents.

hi there,
Just wanted to post that my husband and I finally had our embassy interview for our greencards and are back in the states approved and very happy!
Our interview appointment came very quickly, within 3 weeks of the March visa bulletin. I wish you all the same fortune and hope that the priority dates open up considerably for you all.
My best.

tonyHK12 appreciate your inputs. We are already united. IV has several thousand members and has conducted several campaigns. The leaders are very capable persons also. You have put forward a general idea but this has been debated a great deal. What is the purpose of even a poll when it is absolutely clear that everybody in this group would welcome a bill solely for reducing backlogg? The question is how can we get the legislator to write and introduce such a bill and then how to get it to pass. Who will support such a bill? Your desire is similar to everybody else in this group but until there is a definite strategy which is different from what has already been tried there is no point in just creating discussions foccussed on desires.
First think out a strategy and put it out. Others will then coment or join it.
Putting out vague goals like "we need a bill" is of not much use. the question that you need to answer is "how?"
You nailed the point.
I agree with your comments completely.
On a side note: Politicians in this country are not much different than Laloo...:D:D:D
They just different kind of "Ghascharo"....I do miss seeing him on television! (dont have zee tv or sony etc :D).

I quoted a fact (rational and valid) to argue your assumptions. I never even claimed to know what USCIS would do and how they would present the data. It was you who presented a theory to justify that we should not go with any change in the spill over. I want to know why you dont want EB3I not to proceed with this measure. Is it because you believe it will take away numbers from EB2 or EB3I is doomed with plenty of cases and any amount will not make any changes. I believe its perhaps the earlier than the later. See, we all have our needs and we all want to look for ourselves first (including you and me). Its basic human nature. We all can generate obfuscatory facts to push our agenda. But at the end does it justify the means ?
I beleive you are selectively highlighting facts. Forgive me if I am wrong but there are two issues here
1) Applications Pending by PD
2) Applications Pending by Category (EB 2 & EB3)
Now yes I agree a congress man can ask like how come I see Eb3 app from 2001 pending with you since 2001. Which means 8+ years. With Spillover to Eb3 the dates max go to 2002 so the question would be app pending for 7+ years
With moving EB2 they can least claim that they have moved an entire category to current. Is that right or wrong is entirely a personal question but it is a valid argument from their side. Also look at it this way Eb1 I & Eb2 I currently have a gap of 4 years. and EB2 & Eb3 have a gap of 4 years as well.

Hi Guys,
Need some advice regarding two stocks.
1) USO -- ETF for crude Oil. It is at about $29.00 but alst year in July it was about 120. IS it a good investment bet. I know I might have to hold it till summer of 2010.
2) HNSN -- Biomedical device maker. It is the next ISRG, as the reports indicate. They make the sensie robotic cartherer devices. No one else in the world does that. What do you guys think of this ? It is now at $4.50, at its peak it was about $37.00
Thanks for all the input.

This is actually a very good idea. Maybe not 10% even 25% is fine.
This way microsoft, oracle etc. can get their workers.
Even Deloitte, PWC they hire americans and pay you when you're on bench.
Unlike most indian consulting companies, which don't pay you when you're on bench and make you lie on your resume.
Why to you want to discriminate between one set of companies from another set of companies? In effect, discriminate between employees of one set of companies with the employee of other set of companies? Let me guess, you do not work for one set of companies but may possible work for another set of companies, right? I see some posts on the forum want to change the system as to best suitable their individual situation and they don't care if rest of the world is screwed.
With the green card backlogs, a lot of companies have many employees on H-1B status, waiting for their green card. As such the ratio of people on H1 to green card is increasing. Why do you want to punish the employee on H1, waiting for the green card for many years, because of retrogression? I am not able to understand the objective and rationale of your suggestion?
This bill is not just about limiting the % of employees on H1. It also says that employers will be "investigated" and "audited". "Investigation" is done when there is an allegation of a wrong-doing. So in essence, the bill says that as soon as you employ someone on H1, you have done something wrong. Even after listing the job on DOL website for 30 days and going through all the other stringent requirements, is that how it should be? When an employer hire an employee on H1, the employer is paying filing fee, lawyer’s fee and 8-10% taxes for hiring each employee. This "Investigation" and other stringent provisions to make it impractical to file H1 is simply to destroy H1 program. For now you may see the bill as to how it best suits your individual situation and then you may suggest how it further fit exactly into your situation before coming with an idea, like the one you suggested, but the bottom line is, this bill makes entire H1 program "non-workable" as mentioned by the administrator. And it applies to Oracle & IBM Consulting, PWC, Deloitte and every other employer.

Hi Folks,
My PD is current but my lawyer is saying that I CANNOT file I-485.
Reason:
My labor cert / EB2 was originated in Illinois and then amended for Virginia by G-28.
Since my labor cert approval, i moved to Califonia - same job, same company.
Now my lawyer is saying that I need to go back to Virginia so i can apply for I-485.
Question:
1. Do i have to go back to the same state/location at I-485 filing stage where my Labor was originally approved?
2. Doesnot Green Card is for a future job?
3. Can i file I-485 while I am in California and my labor was approved for VA?
Please advise - thanks

LUD on 04/19/10
LUD on 04/20/10
So, on and after documents were received by USCIS, I had received 3 LUDs. Is this normal? Has it happened to someone else who e-filed. Mine is at NSC.
Thanks.
I filed my application on the 14th as well. I had LUDs almost everyday till 4/21/10.

For once, I disagree with you macaca. If someone is not being paid, it is not considered valid employer-employee relationship. Otherwise, what is the need for showing pay stubs during the green card process?
Not being paid when on this so-called desk should be a violation of the intent of the H1B, and if there is a loophole that allows such a thing, it needs to be filled.
I am saying that it is not illegal according to USCIS laws. You are saying it is unethical. I agree it is unethical!

You cannot work unless you have the physical card in your hand....forum shows loong wait times for the physical card to come in after the card production has been ordered.
People who filed in April/May are still waiting and GOD only knows when the wait is goign to be over.
I will say lucky are those folks, who have got their EAD's approved. Atleast they dont have to worry about not working.
I hope things work out for everyone.

7) Bottomline now EB3 will move upwards till 2005 mid with first priority and EB
2 will also brought till 2005 mid but this will be done by moving Eb3 first as
it is already way behind.
EB2 will move to 2005, but not as fast as you think. See these IV polls:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6266
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6128
again a small sample and possibly statistically invalid; but 50% of people waiting for GC from EB2-India have PD < March_2005.
8) Once both EB2 and EB3 reches 2005 mid bench mark Eb2 will again
become faster with comparision to EB3.
why? Most people past 2005 have actively tried for EB2. Either by abandoning earlier filings and doing a fresh one in PERM, or by trying to recapture them.
In 2001 no one cared if your LC was filed in EB2 or EB3. From 2005 onwards people are actively looking for EB2.
