    CAdude, possibly you're the person in DENIAL mode. You are free to take the chill pill or any other pill you want (I am not seeking your advice for that purpose anyways). If you have a direct response to the point I made, feel free to respond, otherwise, please don't bother...

    I have already waited 90 days, my RD is July 02, ND is July 27.

    Then IMHO you should give USCIS a visit.

    I will do the #3 and #4 by tomorrow EOD.

    It is nice to see that the senior leadership is taking notice of the 'pain' some of us are going through right now.

    Disclosure : I have already received 2 year EAD (thanks to IV). I have taken initiative to bootstrap the effort to help others who haven't been so fortunate. Since we are all in the same boat let us watch each others back for a change, instead of trying to backstab each other at every available opportunity.


    This is NOT a yet another case tracker /EAD tracker thread. I don't believe that just tracking stuff will change anything. Be it EAD issue or any other, real world action is needed to solve it.

    I have started this thread to guage the impact this issue has had on our community , how many members are affected, what actions have been taken by them, so that next steps can be taken. If a large number of members are impacted IV may decide to take up the issue.

    Here are the options available to applicants

    1) Call National Customer Service Center and create a Service Request (SR) to expedite the case
    2) Fax and mail a letter to Service Center requesting to expedite the case due to possibility of job loss. Since the burden of proof is on the applicant - a letter from the company that EAD is necessary for continuation of job may help.
    3) If steps 1 and 2 don't produce the results and CRs refuse to open SRs citing silly reasons, USCIS Ombudsman may be approached.

    Here's how you can do that - http://www.dhs.gov/ximgtn/programs/editorial_0497.shtm

    4) Approach your US Congressmen/women Representative/Senators. Every office has a different form for requesting Immigration help. They can open an inquiry with USCIS on your behalf.

    Following the above (4) steps is no guarantee that your case will be resolved. But it is necessary that we follow all possible avenues before the issue needs to be escalated. We shouldn't feel embarassed at the question "Did you follow up with all these avenues available to you?". Our answer should be - "Yes. We did all that and it didn't help". And we should be able to produce the proof that we did do all the four steps mentioned above.


    If you have done all the four or after you have exhausted all avenues, AND are willing to take it further - speak to the media, participate in possible IV campaign etc., post your details. We need members ready to go public with the issue if we want to succeed.


    Right now, I have started this as an individual initiative. But I am sure that IV will get involved once it's proven that a large number are impacted and there are enough members to turn it into a campaign.

    It will be intersting to see how Indian Economy will flare, which is essantially driven by Outsourcing, which will take the greatest hit.

    Remember Indian Economy's engine is outsourcing, once it starts to see the $ exchange pressure, forget about people coming to US, think of what will happen to standard of lving in Inida.

    Can India still maintain the new glow with dollar coming down , I doubt as the Govt of India has not made any big steps to make permanent changes to infrastructure set up.

    I don't have a paypal account, but I would like to contribute, is there any other way that I can send my money to you?

    Thanks.

    CWYGC,

    you don't need a paypal account. Once you click on the paypal link on the IV homepage, it will give you an option to just use your credit card. That's how I contributed too.

    Good Luck :-)

    Lets learn from the chinese! dont you think they smell of fish and frogs, they cant speak proper english, they do not dress properly etc etc but they get their job done and are slow and steady. Part of the reason they are not easily insulted as we are is, they are very very humble people. They have learnt to respect others. Now look at we Indians. I am from South India. Do you think if I travel to the North I will be respected, let alone be considered a normal human being?? We tend to view everything that way. Go to any university and you will see a mumbai group, a chenai group, bihar group etc etc. First let us speak of how WE INDIANS treat other Indians. This is just like the Middle east right? When they have a common enemy they stand as one, otherwise they always fight among themselves. As somebody previously pointed out.
    1) Respect yourself and others (americans). They are not used to your spicy smell, oil smell, untidiness etc. Instead of blaming them for not cooking, it would be better for us to take a few precautions: hand your dress/coats etc in a separate room with door and keep it always locked, preferably put a perfume paper or something on the floor in that room.
    2) Learn to use chewing gum before group meetings.
    3) Work to develop a cheerful attitude. Dont expect to be treated as a child is treated by a parent (always cared for type of thing). Smile and be happy.
    4) Please dress decently and tell your friends to do so also. Many people dont know this basic requirement in the US.
    5) Finally learn to smile at a fellow Indian, no matter which part of the country he/she is from.

    One thing I have noticed is most of the time (not always though), its the people who dont do their work properly/sincerely, who end up with these kind of problems. And remember this will happen to any person whether its an Alien / American. As an alien we will naturally be attacked more if we are not GOOD enough. Isn't it assumed that H1B is to bring in the best of the rest of the world into this country?? So lets try to be that best and do our best.

    Not much good news for EB2 and EB3 India. I hope folks realize and do the lobby day seriously.

    Here is the timeline for folks that are not serious

    EB2 India: Waiting for July - October spillovers thinking that most EB2 will be current. The prediction threads have hyped this a lot. Many will benefit this year. But many will miss this bus too. Some from those who will miss this bus, would be back wanting to do something in Nov - May timeframe. Others will waste their time on predictions and trackers and make those site owners rich.

    EB3 India: Many who filed in July 2007 are still happy with EAD status. They worry and contact IV only if their I140 is revoked, I485 denied or if EAD renewal is delayed. Some still sulk or want to blame someone (even IV) for their delays. Those who have not filed I485 yet are few in number. Many new Eb3s still do not know the extent of the backlogs. With time they will slowly learn about the backlogs and wait times. When they suffer due to lack of EAD, they will all make noise on IV asking for some action. This is the reason why the I485 filing action item thread is still weak and pre-mature. I would give another 2 years for the non-I485 folks to have retrogression sink in.

    Retrogression is not going away. If it goes away, only applicants will benefit from it. And these applicants are too weak and small in number to even raise their voice. So why would anyone pass a law to make these people happy that do not even want any law changed. After 2 years all the folks who are not participating in advocacy days and contributing, will contribute to IV. At that time, if we in core are still around, would rather ask them to lead the effort if they can and if they are really serious. The current advocacy day campaign and contributions are a measure of seriousness for us to plan our next agenda items.

    I would like to point out that it is not just skilled workers from India and China that are affected.

    Franklin,

    We have members from all over the world. And as far as EB-3 is concerned the entire category retrogressed -- all countries. We feel that this is a problem that affects all highly skilled workers.

    One thing to remember is that reporters take snippets from hours of interviews, and then their editors edit the article down further.

    best,
    Berkeleybee

    Gave in and sent PP by Fedex yesterday for Schedule A, grp 2 case.My attorney did not advise me to PP nor did a legally brain I turn to for advice. He said its likely that I would get approved even during retrogression.
    But I decided its better to know sooner than later, preferably before spouse started using EAD, and if a miracle happens (who can prevent miracles?) the 485 could also get approved concurrently with the 140.... And because I have 13 days more before retrogression hits. And because I saw people reportiing really qiuck turn around after PP. My employer was willing to pay half as well...

    Well plus I did not want to be stuck in the general EB2 pool (India) which looks like its a black hole. I have an approved labor from 2004 there.(yet to file 140 for that one)..so didn't see a reason to be stuck there with a 2006 PD.

    I still wonder if my reasons were sane and if my hasty action mght prevent my spouse from working -- if the 140 gets denied...Well, we'll take it as it comes..it may mean goodbye to the US or something..

    BTW as far as I know, retrogression doesn't start till November 1st.

    Bluekayal

    I had all paper work ready for PP and were sent to my Lawyer for premium processing of my Sch. A case. But retrogession occured that night in Nov. visa bulletin. So my lawyer advised me that it is not advantageous to go for it unless your date is current. So we did not filed it.

    As I remeber you were not ready for premium process. Any reason or justification for rethinking your decision? let me know if you can outline some advatage of PP of Sch. A at this point, or have seen some cases which enjoyed some advantage due to PP very recently.

    May your online MBA make you so powerful that you can compete with all the top of the line MBAs.

    I will, combined with my existing degree and years of experience.

    But if you think you are the example of top line MBA, I do not think I have a competition . I do not compete with immatured people who

    1) Keep changing their word every time they open their mouth

    2) Open their mouth without knowing what they are talking

    3) Can stoop to any low to achieve something as minor as GC

    Most of the folks are missing the point about the prior years approval numbers. All the approvals from 2004 - 2008 are padded with huge visa number from FB spillover and the recapture provision of AC21. From this year onwards we have to live with the usual ~3K per country per category limit. This is the reason why Charles Oppenheim is predicting decade long wait for EB2 I/C and all EB3's. We continue to beat down Oppenheim claim with our own numbers, but he knows more about visa numbers than any one of us.
    Let us dream about recapture being a panacea to the problem. There is only limited amount of visa's to be recaptured (~180K) even with that not all categories can become current. Also during that last recapture debates there where lots of suggestions to stagger the usage of recaptured visa over a long time frame like 5 yrs. Even with recapture, the date movement will not be rapid, but it will be remarkably better than what it is now.

    Yeah you are right. 180k visas will clean almost will 2006 end but then those 2007 and 2008 onwards has to live with 3k apps. removing counrty cap along with Recapture helps all ..

    Do you want to apply for a GC in the future ? If yes, then aren;t you happy someone is paving a way for you ?

    Why are trying to wake up folks who are pretending that they are sleeping?

    Let them pretend.

    This was the same guy who said FOIA can be hung on wall like an art frame because he does not need the data. He does not care a rat's ass if you care about the data or not. When I mentioned that FOIA can also be used for making a presentation to the lawmakers on how deep the retrogression is, FOIA is ok and good. Because, it will possibly benefit him

    Me! Me! Me! Me! Alllll ME!

    Give me my GC IV! I will give you 25-50$ depending on my mood. What ever!

    I agree, you will be competing with all the illegals. But.....

    1. How likely are they to file their apps on the first allowable day that USCIS will accept the applications? Not very. Most of us know what's going on and will be ready to send in our apps first. Ofcourse if some EB based guy is pottering around instead of moving fast, thats his problem.

    2. How many illegals can afford the high priced attorneys? Most of these poor guys dont know to speak, read or write english, forget about filing out USCIS forms.

    3. How many illegals maintain perfect records of their time and can recreate a paper trail of the time they spent in the US. I certainly can and most legal wannabe immigrants can definitely prove the time they have been here (paystubs, utility bills, credit card statements, bank statements, etc.)

    The point I am making is - this is the best option I have seen in a long time. Even the stupid point based system had its drawbacks. This is unconditional. It will get vast support from the hispanic community also. The UK has the same thing. Be on a work permit for 5 years and then you are eligible to apply for Permanent Residency. I believe there is also some clause in the UK system that states that you have to have been in the UK illegally for 10 years as against 5 years for a legal immigrant. I'm sure setting the illegal bar at 10 years and legal bar at 5 would be acceptable for most people.

    If we reapply under this section, we will be competing with the massive illegal-to-AOS guys based on our Receipt date for adjudication.

    This is what written in I-131 Instructions
    http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-131instr.pdf -> page 3

    If you are in the United States and seek advance parole:
    A. You may apply if you have an adjustment- of- status application pending and you seek to travel abroad for emergent personal or bona fide business reasons; :mad:

    we can come up with many excuses that would easily fall under "emergent personal or bona fide business reasons" category.

    I thought we must get ready with some reasons, when using AP to re-enter US. I have come up with some of my own that I may use:

    1) Grandpa or Grandma is sick (most common reason, perhaps no body uses it as a reason anymore)(bona fide personal reason)
    2) Land dispute (bona fide business reason)
    3) Parents home need urgent repair (bona fide business reason)
    4) Water shortage problem (bona fide business reason)

    Yes, I agree - my experience has been the same. The customer service representative insisted the receive date was whatever showed up in the online status, even though it was ~45 days after the receipt date printed on my receipt notice.

    Btw, I have a question about background/namecheck. I remember reading someplace (official) that fingerprints are valid for a period of 15 months. Now imagine this - at the end of that period, you are fingerprinted again, and while the background/namecheck is in progress the "annual lottery" period opens up in Jul/Aug/Sept. Is that file skipped again since background check is pending?
    Regardless of what laws USCIS vouches for, I believe this is what happened during last year "lottery season" in Aug/Sept. My background check was completed and entered in the system mid-Aug., while the USCIS ran out of visa numbers a week or two later.
    Anything is possible my friend. We are only trying to understand (from remote) what may be happening. No one there really has any well defined method to manage cases. Their annual report tells how many cases were processed, and how many visas were given away. There is nothing to vouch on this report if it was done in any genuine and sensible sequence. Monthly published processing dates, as we all know, are approximate. They are not updated regularly as no one really knows how to determine those dates (Extremes "no one before this date is pending" and "at least one case with this date has been processed, may differ by several months/years?).

    I have just kept GC out of the equation for anything I do in my life. Buying a house was a personal choice and I could afford one - so just went ahead and did it. If I have to leave the country for good due to some immigration related bs, my lender can suck it up :D

    You cannot keep GC out of equation when GC/non-GC decides your ability to get unemployment benefits, choice of jobs and many more aspects of your life.

    If you leave the country, you lose the equity on the house. I don't know when you bought
    the house. In the post credit bubble period, the lender will make sure you have enough equity that they are secure and you have skin in the game.
