How sad! Yet there are tens of thousands of us who are committed! We need to keep growing our unity!
I was sick rest of the day.
I hesitate every day in doing things that help them. So far I have taken temporary decisions to continue.
It is mentally very draining!

Did they change it to add a clause that illegal immigrants need to leave USA and re-enter in order to apply for Z visa?

Get copies of your 140 approval and labor filing papers. Look for a job and transfer h1b , you will get 3 years transfer/extension based on yiour approved 140.
Once you settle down in your new job, apply for new Labor in PERM (preferably EB2) , and you can port your earlier priority date.

Hi,
was your first labor PD before April2004?
If yes,then they might have taken that PD.
If not,maybe we can see a forward movement for PD for EB2 in coming bulletin as USCIS might be trying to use as much visa numbers as possible.
Congrats and Enjoy!
No its I-485 I just cut and pasted the two emails I received, first at 10am then the second at 3 pm check online and the system had same messages. If its true I am having a party wow man thanks I did come to US in 1997. I do have a labor which was approved under RIR PD date 2004 but the employer refused to file I-140. Then again filed PERM in 2007 under EB2 and filed I-140/I-485 based on this PERM

You stand a better chance of getting it through your kids if they are citizens than getting it through EB3. There are a few options to get green card faster. Canada is not one of them.
1. Get a Ph.D, get a job in a univ and apply in EB-1.
2. Get a MBA and get a management job and apply in EB-1.
3. Become a religious worker in some temple and apply in the religious worker category.
Fun apart, if you feel comfortable that you can find a job of your liking, and you believe your background will qualify you for a PR, consider Canada. It is a good place to live. You never miss home there. I am a Cdn citizen and have lived there for many years. Most likley I'll return back to Canada when I decide to retire. I know at least one person, who after living in the US for 11 yrs and unsuccessful in getting a GC, chose to make Canada his home, hoping to be there just for 3 yrs (needed to be a citizen), and then return to the US on TN permit. He has been in Canada for 8 yrs, and does not want to consider to move to the US any more.
Canada has a bit slower life, but is better socially and people are friendlier. It has less professional opportunities, lower pay and more tax. Yet, overall I think Canada is a better place to live. Why am I in the US? Purely for professional reasons. I visit Canada quite frequently, which I consider as my home.

Chapter meetups is a positive step. The so called baby step.... If folks RSVP and do not show up, the leaders will get upset if the same folks do not have the courtesy to tell why they did not show up....;)
First off, I don't appreciate your sarcasm @ 2 cents leading to a dollar. Secondly if your leader is going to scream at people who are not attending the meetings, this is only going to drive people away from IV. Unfortunately, as someone who has learnt it the hard way, using aggressive language (especially language which is a negative judgement on people's nature) does not get the work done at the end of the day. Peace out and good luck with your stuff.

I hear you, needhelp! I think every single chapter leader has felt this at some point.
I would like to clarify - anything beyond 0 minutes late is rude. I have a management position in my job, and if that happens at a meeting i'd set up professionally, they get a verbal lashing from yours truly.
It is highly disrespectful
Well said Franklin!
Needhelp!
I not only hear you but I have been there too. (I guess most of the volunteers have.)
First of all, people need to realize IV's cause is THEIR cause, nobody at IV is volunteering to gain publilcity. IV is WORKING TO SAVE YOU FROM living on the edge and spending hours tracking bulletins and EAD renewal deadlines and receipt notices!
If you don't realize this, may God help you!
Unless you have some disorder which prevents you from looking beyond 2/3/4 years, you REALLY should be joining hands with IV so that we all are "free" at the end of those 2/3/4 years!
If you just can't spend any time volunteering, then at least don't RSVP for such meetings! You know you would be fired if you did this at work.

Reallocation of Immigrant Visa Numbers
Immigrant visa quotas would be substantially realigned under S. 1348. Our current law provides for a baseline annual quota of 140,000 immigrant visas for foreign nationals immigrating on the basis of employment. In the past several years, a backlog has developed in several employment-based immigrant categories, with multiyear waits for some prospective immigrant workers. The Senate bill would, in the first five years after enactment, increase the quota for merit-based and employment-based cases, in part to address existing backlogs. An estimated 247,000 numbers would be available for work-related immigration. Beginning in the sixth fiscal year after enactment, however, the quota would drop to 140,000 numbers per year. This level would remain in place for at least two years, until approximately the eighth year after enactment, when the quota would rise to a baseline of 380,000 per year, with additional numbers made available for previously undocumented immigrants who become eligible to apply for permanent residence.
Is the interpretation of current Bill (without amendment) is correct for the work related immigration?

Gurus,Is the above said true..please clarify...as it saves everyone who file renewals in 09 (esp. folks missed boat for 2 yr EAD)..

Dear Pappu
The initiative and effort you and other administrators doing at Immigration voice is commendable. As I have taken up new job only recently i am not able to make it for the advocacy day at Washington. But I had contributed for the advocacy day seperate and the confirmation number is Transaction ID: 8PU10373M6541872R.
Thanks again for all your time and effort.

Well-said POSMd. It must have been very difficult to spend time (even it is 1 Hour a day) after your job towards a common cause. Voluntarily.
Hopefully those who are in frustration, though understandable, can come up with other better ideas to help resolve the problem. I suggest ,contact core Team and let them know how can you help with your time.
My understanding, progress on problems like this can be expected in Months not days.

Or some intern may be practising the sql queries on the actual production system instead of a development box.:eek:

Vinn,
Here are just a few that I can think of rightaway.
1. Once shifted to EAD you loose opportunity to renew or apply for a new H1B if you have not completed six years though.
2. You have to apply for EAD renewal every year and much in advance. H1Bs are issues for 3 year periods.
3. Suppose there is a delay in getting the renewal, you are NOT allowed to work until the renewal comes through. Renewal duration depends on the work load.
4. Fee of EAD is being hiked to $340 per year.
5. Couple of my EAD starting date was the approval date even though the current EAD had not exipred effectively loosing couple of months validity each time.
6. Due to some issues if I-485 gets revoked the EAD/AP are invalidated the very next moment and you accumulate illegal stay and would not have time to get the process going.
On the other hand having a H1B you can apply for EAD any time or not even apply if you have sufficient validity on it. Suppose the I-485 gets rejected you can reapply for a new one or from an another employer and still work/live legally in the US.
EAD allows you to work any type/number of jobs that is the big PLUS though!
TIA
Great points. Is it possible for the primary applicant to continue on H1 and the secondary/dependant applicant apply for EAD?

I am an EB 3 with a PD of 2002 who has watched people substitute and get ahead, use creative lawyers and get GC's, i am stuck and will be stuck for a long time. My job is analytical so i have a habit of analyzing things. I am one of those who feel that the July fiasco created a mess for people who were already waiting, i also feel that the ad hoc FBI name check fix by USCIS screwed the large number of people who had cleared NC after the July bulletin (and missed that bus in the process). I am dealing with the hand that I was dealt.
I don’t have any animosity against the guys who benefitted by the above changes and have participated in all the phone campaigns, and will do so in the future. After so many years i feel that getting the GC is less of an issue for me (i never had problems in my home country, the only reason for waiting is that we have waited so long in the queue, why leave the queue now...sounds lame, but it’s the gods honest truth.)
I have seen many examples of each EB group to its own, realize this, we are all in this together and the only way of getting something done is doing something yourself. Do we have a choice..probably not..will desis be desis(or non desis for that matter)..yes most of them will be..it is what it is.
I know IV is doing its best and there are other groups fighting for HR 5882.
But honestly, what are the chances for this bill to succeed this year (before election)?
100% or 75% or 50% or 25% or 0%
Ron Gotcher predicts that none of the individual bills may pass this year.
And also that EB3 I may not move forward even next year!
I am not sure how many EB3 (I) volunteers are there in IV (who are really focussed). Are they getting nothing? The prediction is that EB3 I may go back to Nov 2001 and stay there for a while (or may be for the rest of next year).
Is the efforts of EB3 (I) volunteers being exploited (indirectly, ofcourse)? What are they fighting for?
