    Thanks a lot lost_in_migration for providing supporting docs.

    I strongly believe none will be affected with this correct interpretation of EB dependents must not use ebquota.
    What about EB applicants from non retrogressed countries/EB1? The primary gets GC in 6 months and the family will have to wait in FB quota?

    Guys:

    Further to my following posting::: Just to share an Update. I got an LUD " on Jul 28 we ordered Card Production" for my EAD Renewal. Details of 1 yr or 2yrs are not known till we see the actual card.

    I will post any updates

    thanks:)


    Gurus:

    Does anyone, who has PD getting current (under EB2- I/C) during Aug/Sept. got their EAD Renewed, and cards received. ?? If so, what's your EAD-Renewal Appln Date / RD and Cards Received Date.

    I suspect, USCIS is NOT issuing EAD Renewals, to probable Current PD holders, any more. :D hopefully. This is a good Sign, if true. Does anybody agree with me.. Let's Party out. :)

    This is becuase, my EAD Renewal Appln. RD is June 18th.. and till date I have NO LUD of whatsoever, and PD would be current during Aug.bullentin

    Is this something to cheer:)

    Thats not true. My PD is March 2005. When my PD comes, I have to apply for EAD whereas others will get GC. Oh such a screwed up system.

    It is true. I will take a bet. If your PD does not go to March 2005 by Sep 2009, I will give you $100. It it goes give me $100:D

    Tell me what wrong he did for him to apologize and I will apologize to you. When nothing is permanent he worked with them for 1 and half years, he got them 4 employees. Why in the world should he apologize?.

    When you say that you will not need your clients you are wrong. when I was searching for projects I got a chance to apply to a job opening in one of my previous client, guess what, the start to my second stint was smooth just because I had a good rapport with my client and they liked my work. I even got one of my team mates in my client place to give me a referral for my higher studies.

    "Your ex boss is not a bad guy, he knows you are leaving for better opportunity".He is not only a bad guy, he is evil IF (note the big IF) he is keeping the money which is not his. Their conscience should prick when they feed and give excellent education to their kids with the ill gotten money.


    Unfortunately one might need his ex-employer in future (might not always be the case) and that is the irony of it all.

    I feel the same..you will always need the ex clients than ex employer.

    Why you need the experience letter?
    Appointment letter is good enough for green card purposes and as far as reference letter, I always got them from client.

    There are 2 issues.
    1. Getting back the salary
    2. Non compete agreement.

    Getting back salary is not a big deal. These type of cases never goes to the court and most o the employers will settle out of court.

    regarding Non Compete, I feel you have served enough and there is no valid case.

    I have convinced a few people at work to do this. Their point is, if we really want to do this, let's do it in a way that works. After receiving a few deliveries, USCIS will get the idea and direct it's lobby security to refuse all further flower deliveries. What's our plan for that situation?

    How did the people who delivered nuts to CBS make it happen? The delivery was actually done via UPS. It's difficult to refuse a UPS packet in the security lobby! Should we send chocolates via UPS instead? It will be much more difficult to refuse deliveries of chocolates.

    Does it matter if the flowers make it inside the building? What matters is that the media knows about us sending those flowers! The florists will tell them how many flowers they delivered! Besides, if we have a 100 people sending flowers they would have a tough time refusing all of them!

    My hope is that 100 becomes a 1000!

    Hi guys,
    With all the news floating around about the VISAs getting exhausted in early July on one side and having an employer who does not seem too eager to apply for I485 since past two months, how does one deal with it ?
    I wish all this was a little less complicated..:confused:

    I agree with you vin13, remove country quota or by number of years we are legally here in US.
    Base on PD is not fare enough. Many of us filed GC vary late because of one or many reasons.

    I understand why you all are not favoring my call, since you all are EB2, EB3 is suffering because of no movement and huge backlog and EB2 is gaining because of Spillover, so you all are not favoring this. Anyway we are trying our best to get some relief for those hanging around with older priority date, let's see...

    Raj3078,

    Thanks for posting. Based on your posts, it seems that you are frustrated and angry. That is understandable. This situation is very stressful. Relax.

    I will give you a sincere and useful suggestion, that hopefully will be valid to others as well. Please refrain from pulling the race card on people talking about immigration. That makes you look emotional, character assassin and worse, that can make people perceive you as a racist yourself. That is the failed tactics used by illegal aliens and uneducated people when confronted with the reality that their attitude and posture is irrational. As far as I can tell, NumbersUSA objects against Irish people who came here illegally. Therefore I do not see any correlation between racial profiling there as you seem to persist. I am not here to defend NumbersUSA or Lou Dobbs. I am just here to remind you that if we continue following the rationale "us vs them" and doing character assassination, we will undeniably face rough opposition and struggle to get what we deserve.

    Thank you,

    The Ombudsman
    "Your dose of daily reality"


    You guys are making me sick and making me think that you are lobbying for numbersusa and alikes.....

    Senthil1 -
    Are you working for numbersusa? Do you know that it is made by white supremist who dont want any colored skin including native americans to be alive in US? Talk about your scare of getting too many people with substandard MS degrees. Do you not realize that the companies in USA knows a different in good US school and Bad one - So in nutshell the people from bad school wont get job? Do you know that there is nature's rule - Fittest Survival... So in case you are fit enough and qualified enough to get a job then you will get one, it does not matter if you are from good or bad school....
    Also, looking at your thoughts, it does not appear that you are MIT or Stanford grade material, so do us all a favor and keep your thoughts to yourself....

    Ombudsman - There is a questionmark on Senthil1's origination but we have no such doubt about yours.. You are definitely a MOLE in this IV Organization and the only reason they keep you on board is because this is democracy and we dont want to throw out someone who might disagree - Its about freedom of expression - But when Freedom of expression crosses the line and creates poison pill then we need to weed it out I guess.....
    In any case, I would definitely like to challenge your argument about 400 anti: 1 pro immigration calls. Are you aware of Avertising world rule that when someone does not like soemthing, they tend to tell at least 25 people about it, while when someone likes something, they might tell 1 person. In this case, this classic rule has applied beyond expectations because people who are calling are already racist who sit on their ass and expect all colored people to be their slaves and get things done for them. They want their mexican maid or indian computer programmer doing things for them but the moment they realize that these foreigners might get citizenship and be equal to them, they dont like that.... (and so do you)....So there you go....No wonder they pick up phone and dial....In any case, what better can they do?

    The only thing we could do guys , is to get a lot of media attention , make the whole world know about our problems....
    If we dont get the GC yearly number increased for India , we should plan to go back,..
    How long can i wait to file 485..
    I am pretty much sure( i wish i am proven wrong) that the Lawsuits are not gonna help us.
    They did nothing wrong legally , its a tradition that DOS doesnt change the visa bulletin in a month..ITS NOT A LAW.

    The max we could get from a lawsuit is damages(financials) , and as USCIS is a fees funded organisatiom , its gonna come back to us

    In one way we should be happy that the USCIS is cleaning its internal backlog,

    Thanx to Libra, skidude, vkrishn, gkattalu, bindoke, andycool ....

    I feel much better. These are trying times for sure.

    Loads of work at the office, moving from one city to another and above all...this frustrating wait --- Its 2 much 2 handle. But I'm with u guyz...I think I shud just STFU N wait.

    Buddy,

    This is an ultimate test from above on our patience.

    I waited for a very long 10+ yrs for my process to complete. Will you beleive that during the first 3 yrs of my application all the categories were current. The very next month when my labor got approved it went to retrogression. Before I got greened 2 weeks back, the dates became current for 3 times. I missed all 3 times. Last one was becuase of idiot lawyer (her firm is one of the largest immigration law firms in the entire country) sat on it and did not provide a required paper work.

    After that the wait got extended for another 3 more yrs. finally got it on early part of this month. With the same process I was laid off once. Ported the process out. Then second company tried to ditch me the process. Ran away from their with the process. Got really lucky. From 3rd company I was forced to take a package and leave. Got lucky there too to port the case for a record 3rd time. Filed AC21 with the 4th company. Later filed I 140 again (i don't know why. The lawyer of the cmpany insisted). Got that once also approved.
    Spend almost 38,000.00 dollars in all these various processes. After all these waited for almost another 2 yrs again and finally it arrived.....

    So each story is different. Each has got its own colors. I have worst situations than mine. Just hang in there buddy. Your turn is round the corner. It is on its way.

    reddymjm,
    I will have to check with my attorney. But, my I-140 approval came from TSC but my I-485 application was sent to NSC.

    If anyone else has had a similar experience, please post your update here.

    Thanks.


    Per my attorney - If the I140 approval came from TSC, you can send your AOS to TSC directly. Hope this helps.

    You are talking about 2004, 05. What about 2001, 2002 and 2003? There are so many people with 2002 priority dates still waiting just like me. Mine is 02/2002

    What a unfair/unethical/inhuman system. I curse everyone who is causing this delay. They will all land up in hell.

    I agree....mine is too 2002 PD/EB2

    Simple reason USCIS will tell you/senator/judge/anyone who really seek the resolution of our loooooong delayed cases is.....case is in security/background/additional review checks.....so everyone will shut their mouth and forward this message to the concerned person.....

    No use....USCIS is a big elephant and acting in sleep....

    and then;

    FCFO - First Complete, First out


    (Complete: approvable and PD current)

    Thank you all for your wonderful responses, I am overwhelmed by the feedback. Some of you have posted such detailed things and personal information, for which I am very grateful. I intend to print out the thread and keep it on my desk for instant inspiration :)

    Matthew Oh has summarised the predicament of folks in a situation such as mine:

    12/16/2007: India EB-2 Retrogression for Two Years and 2002 and 2001 Priority Date Applications

    Traditionally, the legacy INS and USCIS have been exercising its discretion more or less expediting those cases whose visa numbers would be retrogressed substantially to relieve them from the hardship. We have no information available about the number of Indian EB-2 cases with the priority dates between January 2002 and January 2000. These cases are available for adjudication in December 2007. These cases could have been those received approval of the traditional labor certification cases which were approved before October 1, 2007 by the DOL Backlog Elimination Centers. Unfortunately, the huge retrogression will occur during the nation's most celebrated year-end holiday period when the working days and adjudication resources will be very limited. We trust that the USCIS leaders are and will be doing everything possible to adjudicate these Indian cases before the end of the year.

    All officials have talked about processing 60k visas in a month to avoid visas going waste.
    None was honest enough to say the unused visas expire on 09/30 NOT 06/30.
    So, why the mad rush to give out all visas by 06/30?? We all know why..

    some people say this was because of the Kennedy-Bush bill... to get good press for the bill.

    IMO that may be true, but having seen the way US works, i'm willing to bet 25 cents that some high official's bonus depended on ending retrogression. So he did it, for all of 2 weeks.
