Stop this... Really it doesn't help anyone..
 
Knowing what I know..
 
Here are facts that might help everyone...
 
 
For EB3
 
EB2 I/C will never be current without legal fixes.. Current estimated EB2 backlog is slightly less than 100K
 
 
 
 
For EB2 I/C from 2006..
 
Unless hell falls on us, Most of you will get green cards this year.
 
 
 
 
Now Lets get back to IV Advocacy effort and get active.. That is the the only hope for everyone...

thx div_bell.
 
sorry, i missed the obvious. In the links i posted earlier and also on I-131 instr page, it clearly states that Bio-Metric is a must for 1) Re-Entry doc and 2) Refugee doc, but not Advance Parole. duh! :-)
 
But i think when u e-file they ask for FP even though its Advance Parole.
 
im paper-filing now wiht no FP fee.

I read in some posts before that there were 18,000 Eb3 approvals in 2007. Is this true ? If USCIS is allocating unused numbers at the end of the year, then Eb3 India might move fast during the rest of this year.
 
There are total 27 EB3-I approvals on since Oct'2008. In 6 months, only 27 approvals is not a good number.
 
Does anybody know why USCIS is not touching EB3-I aggressively and are we close to using all EB3-I for this year already?
 
Thanks.

What I meant to say, you�ll succeed if you have the capability (with your professional knowledge, experience and skills) in your professional filed but definitely not with USCIS.
 
I can say, USCIS is a great leveler in this aspect. Everybody from PhD to Programmer is same in front of USCIS. All have to wait 10+ yrs with mental tension and anxiety, no matter what your caliber is and how successful you are in your profession.
Don�t get me wrong here. I also had to suffer for visa stamping, renewals, I-94 issues, PA etc in US Visa processing (nothing sever though). At the 5th yr of H1-B, I just decided.. to hell with that.....
I don't know about you guys, but, I would be heart patient with that kind of anxiety in another 5 yrs of GC process �. Really need a lion's heart to pursue US GC now days
i completely agree with u.......waiting 10-12 years for a plastic card keeping everything on hold and renewing EAD,AP every other year.......h1b stamping........all that paperowork.......working ur a** out for the same employer for xx years........keeping track of excruciatingly slow movement of PDs in monthly bulletin.........feel like i am already in ICU man.........is this a life?????

My numbers are not 100% accurate , but it gives fair sense of the current situation.
 
Here are all the LC approvals for India in the last seven years.
 
Year, Total LC Approved, Total India
2007 85112 24573
2006 79782 22298
2005 6133 1350
2004 43582 No Info
2003 62912 No Info
2002 79784 No Info
2001 77921 No Info
2000 70204 No Info
 
Lets assume about 25% of pre-PERM LCs are India based on post-PERM data. Thus for fiscal 2004 (Oct 2003 thru Sep 2004) the total LC number is 43,852. Assume 25% of that to be India based on PERM data. That gives about 11,000 India LCs in 2004 alone (All EB categories combined). If you assume an average of 2.5 dependents then the number of visas required for all India EB categories for 2004 is 27,500 (11,000*2.5). The regular quota for EB2 and EB3 combined is only about 9,800. That means 17,700 visas have to come from somewhere. I dont think those many visas are remaining for this year. Be prepared to see FIFO thrown under the bus and approvals with PDs that are all over the place. Please critique this analysis without piling on. Thoughts?

Only 10% of the general public said immigration is the most important issue for them - and mind you, ILLEGAL immigration and amnesty to illegal aliens is what comes to mind of most average americans. The perceived opposition to CIR was blown out of proportion by the conservatives and their media cronies like Lou Dobbs. That it did not work clearly shows that the american public too mature and sensible to be carried away by such rhetoric. 
I am not sure but one thing we can see a lot of anti immigration conservatives are not doing too good at house.. so what does this mean.. immigration is an issue by the conservative talk shows...Lou Dobbs.. and people like them and not the gen US public ???

For me it's simple. My test case is HR5882. I have seen that Democrats fully supported the bill while Republicans are trying to stall it. 
 
I can predict that Democrat will help us. It was during the time of Clinton when immigration into the US was easy. Visa Bulletin was almost always current. AC21 was passed during the time of Clinton, a democrat.
 
So, tell me. What Republican bill was passed that supports legal immigrants?

Oh Boy!, I feel like hugging you (Jadu ki zappi). By the way my story is very similar to you
Came to USA in 1999 to do MBA from a top US school. Joined a multinational org in 2001, filled my labor in 2002, got laid off in 2005, Filled my another labor in 2005.
But look , I am cool!:)
 
Frist, sorry for the confusion. I do have a 05/2007 PD at Atlanta PERM center. I came to the country in 1999 for grad school, started working with OPT in 2001, converted to H1 in 2002, laid off in 2002, started working again in 2002 with a new employer, filed labor in 2004 and got stuck in BEC ever since. The employer refused to file PERM, so I had change to a new company in 2006, and had PERM filed in 2007 and got stuck there again. Your are right, I am technically not in BEC, but psychologically I always feel I am in there.
 
I did not know what was 'disruptive' and 'inappropriate' about what I said. This is a board for BEC victims, so BEC victims are not allowed to express our frustration? I just expressed my depress and my concerns over how much this will retrogress the PD without targeting anyone. When tons of people run in front of our queue and shut us out in cold, we are supposed to 'enjoy the moment' with them? If so, when USCIS said no one can file 485 on July 2nd, why none of the people enjoy the happiness with those who already filed, because that will make their processing time much faster. People said we should feel happy for those who can file, because they now can get EAD/AP for their spouses, as if our spouse do not need EAD/AP. And as a result of this total mess, I don't think we'll have hope in another several years to see the date current.
 
IV core keeps telling us, BEC is always on their agenda. Really? If they did not even understand our pain and consider our frustration a disruption to people's happiness, how can we expect them to help? I still think IV is a great org, as it's the first such organization to speak out for legal immigrants. But when it comes to BEC victims, I did not see IV changed anything, or intend to change anything.
 
btw my original ID is still being banned

This is very interesting. Please keep us posted on future developments like when you get your card. Lot of us have been debating about RD and ND. The fact that you have got an RFE on your 485 application is also interesting. It could really be your GC. 
Have you recently applied for you EAD? They might have approved your EAD and updated your status for the 485 app by mistake. Just trying to over analyze the situation :). Anyway keep your fingers crossed till you get your physical cards.
 
Earlier today I got an email from USCIS that said
"Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
 
Current Status: Card production ordered.
 
On June 29, 2008, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register."
 
Then by the evening my I-485 said
"Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
 
Current Status: Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident.
 
On June 30, 2008, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later. If you move before you get your new card call customer service. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register."

I had an august 2004 labor that USCIS erroneously predatd on my 2006 August I-140. A couple of years ago when 2004 Aug was current, I followed up and was then told that I should never have been given the 2004 date as no I-140 was filed for it..and told, So, sorry about it...but please keep waiting for the priority date.

All the registered members of IV should contribute to make it a big success...If the bills are passed, there will be huge relief and happiness for everyone...
 
Those who are watching the threads for some success, nothing will happen if we don't contribute and lobby the bills.
 
Hence please give a hand to IV by CONTRIBUTING for the SUCCESS...
 
Those who are contributing let's move forward.. I will contribute another $50 at 20K..

What is the use of double masters and MBA from Harvard/Kellogs if you cannot get promoted. With all those degree on hand, you will still end up doing what you were doing at the time you filed for your labor.
 
Thinking about these options are good if and only you are sure that you will have your GC when you complete your studies. MBA is worst as it will have negative impact on your career if you continue to do what you were doing even after your MBA completion. Down the line when you get GC, you cannot substantiate your motive for MBA which is really going to HURT your carrer. MS is lot better then MBA.
 
If you are really interested in MBA, do prepare for GMAT / TOEFL , take the exams and keep your scores ready. Start doing some volunteer job / community work. Volunteer / non-profit work / community work will add some value to your resume to show your leadership skills.
 
DONT DO THE MISTAKE OF DOING MBA IF YOU ARE NOT SURE TO GET YOUR GC BY THE TIME YOU COMPLETE IT. IF YOU DONT GET IT, YOU SHOULD HAVE THE GUTS TO KICK THE US CAREER AND TO GO WHEREVER YOU RE EMBRACED FOR YOUR SKILLS/EDUCATION.
 
I agree. I realized that I was paying too much for my MBA from a top 15 school and I decided to put on hold for that exactly same reason. I received job offers from employers which were willing to pay 100% of the MBA. Of course I had to decline due to my status.
 
Also, interest rates in private loan banks are very high. I thought more about it and decided to put the damn MBA studies on hold and wait until I can change jobs and let an employer pay the thing for me.
 
My advice is for people to watch out carefully. MBA can get very expensive and you may just actually making your hosts happier, not necessarily you !
