With Sen. Pelosi in charge of the House, you can expect a leverage for sure. More corrupt than ever, a Democrat powered senate should push hard for illegal alien amnesty. If you are lucky enough to get your case processed before those 20 million+ people, yes, that can work well.
I agree 100% with you. If you do not get your GC approved before those 25+ million people get in the line ahead of you. Remember they will have to send those 25 million names for namecheck and the government will do theirs before everybody else's.

Hi Guys,
I was looking at the AP renewal instructions. It says:
1. If you are in the United States, you must attach:
a. A copy of any document issued to you by USCIS showing your present status in the United States; and
b. An explanation or other evidence showing the circumstances that warrant issuance of an advance parole document; or
c. If you are an applicant for adjustment of status, a copy of a USCIS receipt as evidence that you filed the adjustment application;
d. If you are traveling to Canada to apply for an immigrant visa, a copy of the U.S. consular appointment letter.
So what I gather from this is that they need:
a) Our H1B status papers and the previous copies of the advanced parole documents.
b) A letter stating why we need the advanced parole.
c) The I-485 receipt copies.
Now it DOES NOT say anything about the photographs if you are filing within the US.
Can someone who has applied for the Advanced Parole (NOT the EAD), please share their experience and what documents are needed. The EAD filing seems to be elaborately covered.
Thanks.

I do undersatnd that these companies did not help you.. y don't u understand that we r not talking about u :) the statistics r these companies bring tens of thousands here every year from one country, yes on H1 or L1, not to sponsor them for greencards, but arriving here with a dual intent visa that allows for greencard application is not such a casual opportunity and that's what I'm telling you is rarely available to the equally qualified non-retrogressed folks. Once here, those thousands transfer to these small/mid size companies u mentioned and choose to stay and apply for greencards even though they know that with their huge numbers current rules will make their greencard journey longer..
Yes adjusting the quota percentages should be on the table, but if these companies hurt you by creating a longer line than the quota allows, , then you should take issue with these companies before you take it at your fellow non-retrogressed immigrants.
You're confusing the cause-and-effect. The country quota laws were put in MUCH earlier than any offshoring companies started doing H1s. It might in fact be the opposite, meaning that these companies are hiring qualified people who weren't getting GCs.
And besides these companies are all software cos that came up in the last 10 yrs, why should that stupid rule affect any person in a non-software field?
Yes we know that the current rules make the journey longer. The point is that it is unfair and that's why we should start trying to change it!
Basically it is very difficult to understand another person's pain. Especially when you're set up to gain from it.

GC Seeker 2002 I know how if feels to be in status quo for 9-10 years. I will complete my 9 years at the end of this month.
I want to share the fact that if we channel our negative energy into something positive it helps relieve stress and at the end of the day you earn and learn something.
It does not have to be studies, for me it is studies and golf. In fact I have gotten to be good at golf too. And one of my dreams is to play on PGA tour. Well why not!!! Some of the greatest inventions have been in serendipity. Microwave, correll ware etc. You may find something too. Take Azim Premji's example. Think of of it as some greater force that is directing you to see something in front of you and is phenomenal.
Also remember that you find the lost objects only when you are not looking for them!!

If your statement has been endorsed by the core that they want a million number then forget about this effort.I am feeling sad that i was part of this effort.I am not going to be part anymore unless i see some direct addressals from core to do it hence forth.I wish your million signature drive doesnt drive away many more like me.
Come on dear friend. If core does not endorse something - they will let the members know. IV is just not core or chapter leaders, IV is everyone. Everyone can take responsibility and do something. Core just manages and chapter leaders just help implement stuff, IVs strength is its members.
Now different members come from different places, different backgrounds, different perspectives, so there could be a change in the general approach. Working towards a cause must never turn you down.

From Immigration bill drew fire from both sides (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/washingtondc/la-na-immig9jun09,1,3157639.story) By Janet Hook and Nicole Gaouette, LA Times Staff Writers, June 9, 2007
Just one anti-immigration group, NumbersUSA, has sent more than 100,000 faxes and made thousands of calls to Congress since Wednesday. The intensity of that anger propelled some of the bill's opponents.
To make it a fair debate and an honest opinion the senate and the congress should take the SSN of all anit immigrant groups and analyse their credit history work record etc...

I guess this is what DOS is looking at.
April 2004- March 2005 All countries & all Cat: - 905
(This can be ignored)
2005 PERM EB2 India/China
(Level III & Level IV):- 729
Late 2005 to 01 June 2006
EB2 India/China ((Level III & Level IV)):- 7037
Total labors: - 8671
Assuming 80% of the total made it into 140/I485 stage
New Total of labors: - 7000
7000 labors * 2.5 visa per family
Total expected Visa demand: - 17500
Assuming 80% cases are ripe for approval.
Total visas required to clear the case up until 01 June 2006 is
14000
I know the discussion is about how many visas are remaining and we are trying to estimate it based on approved labour petitions. While the PERM data may be more reliable I have my serious doubts about the pre-PERM data. My PD is Jul 2004 and my case does not even show up in the 2004 MDB file. I think the 905 number is a severe understatement.

Now that Democrats in charge, I think that there may be a chance Republicans might in fact be eager to pass Immigration related bill in house before they go out.
The president wants to have this bill passed for 2008 elections. In 2004 he made big deal on Soc Sec and immigration issues. Soc Sec is dead. So in order to show that he accomplished something he would like to pass immigration bill. He has shown eagerness to do so. Looking at another way, it must be clear to Republicans that they may have over-estimated public's anti-immigrant sentiment. If they don't pass the immigration bill now, democrats will get full credit for immigration reform.
So I think that unless there are more important issues, we might have a chance.

I guess there is very little follow-up on this issue.
That doesn't mean nothing is being done. I am continuing to do a lot of work on this, but there is nothing new to post right now.
To date I have been able to get every newspaper in the country to do stories on this, as well as three scathing editorials in the NY Times, LA Times, and Mercury News, all of which slammed the government for its action.
I have worked with the staff of a member of Congress to ensure that house representatives were aware of the issue.
As a result, the house of representatives unanimously passed the HEART Act giving stimulus payments to affected soldiers overseas.
I have been able to get an important legal organization to review and research the topic for possible litigation.
I would love to go over the legal details with you, but it is not prudent to give too much detail here right now.
And finally, I have been corresponding with immigrants like you providing advice and updates on the situation.
I am not sure what more you expect.

And users should able to give numbers in that.. not just radio options..
And i remember most of the people are sending letters only to President not a copy to IV.
How does sending letters to IV matters?
Between my side i sent letter to president and requested 10 of my friends to do so..
it matters
when meetings take place on such issues, it's important to carry the large number of petition letters along...it has an important impact.
please do mail copies to iv also- can put them all in one envelope and send.
i have about 30 letters with me now (including 6 from another MN chapter members), many more are still in the works and i have friends working on it too...

I and my wife got our approved EADs in our hand in 17 days (Mailing day to USCIS to recevied date by us). Only strange thing is that my EAD is valid from 06/2008 to 06/2009. I thought the new EADs validity would begin when the existing expires. My existing EAD expires on 09/19/2008. I lost 3 months with this renewal.
USCIS has been unfair in renewing EAD.
What about writing a letter to them? - by grace of God, if they do realize, they may give properly - for 2 years.
Nothing wrong in trying.
