Thanks to everybody for this heated debate. While reading through it - there were times I was left thinking - instead of spending 5 minutes writing stuff here , why dont we use that 5 minutes to call up a friend and get him to register and webfax. I was about to write it when I realized I can myself do it - so I went around my office and there are 8 people who sent webfaxes already in the last 10 mins - now I think I've the right to write this :-)
I agree we all are going through a stressful period and we can decide to either sit back and hope things work out as and when they do or to go ahead and try to do something ourselves. Initially, I wasnt very sure if IV would be able to achieve much and hence, didnt even register here. But lately I realized even if they dont achieve much, atleast they are trying their best. And I believe its better to try and fail rather than do nothing and think of what if situations.
I dont know whether IV will be able to get an amendment, whether I'll get my GC in the near future, will I get to the point in my career where I should be and where I'm not coz of GC but one thing for sure, I'll know I tried to change the system and this is something I can pass on to my next generation as a matter of pride.
Just my 2 cents and thanks for bearing with me if you read through it all.
Now, I need to get on the phone and see if I can get more people involved in this.

Now that Democrats have taken the house and will soon bid adieu to rabidly anti-immigration Republicans in key posts like Sesenbrenner and Hastert, it does bring in a new ray of hope for us.
What this means for us in two houses:
Senate:
- To get anything done in the Senate, a bill needs support of more than 60 votes.
- Even if Democrats control Senate, which we will find out after a Virginia recount, they will really have to work in a bi-partisan manner. If we look at past trend the Senate was open to immigration reform.
Lower House:
- Due to "majority of the majority" rule by soon to be former house speaker Hastert, NO non-conservative agenda saw the light of the day in last congress.
-This effectively turned into a do-nothing congress.
- New Democrat speaker Nancy Pelosi brings hope for millions.
- This is a good chance for Bush to show what he can rally around all Americans not just the conservatives.
This election has shown that the American democratic system does work and that there is still hope for immigration reforms.
Maybe, this is too early to celebrate but I will go out and have an ice-cream :o some good news after a long draught

I have a couple of questions, pl let know if you have valid info.
Situation: Spouse came to US on H4 and then got converted to H1.Due to delay in pay and not a strong case, she is not willing to go for H1 visa stamping next time when she goes to India. She wasnts to go for H4 visa stamping instead.
1. Is it better to convert to H4 here and then leave for India? We feel that if it would take time to convert to H4, then instead of waiting she can work till the last day here and then quit and leave(because she wants to leave ASAP). Also changing from H1 to H4 here means submitting paystubs and other documents and more scrutiny. I think in Chennai consulate there will be less questions if applying for H4. Any thoughts, pl help?
2. If applying for H4 in Chennai, will they ask for paystubs from her previous H1 status? They shouldnt since she is applying for H4, but I still wanted to know. If they ask why do you want to change back to H4, what is the best answer?
3. Travelling on an expired visa from East coast to Chennai. If there is no time to get transit visa to travel thru Europe, which is the shortest route/best airlines to get to Chennai quickest from say, Atlanta? Pl help
This is urgent, PLEASE HELP

I can categorically state that once a category retrogresses, any I-485s with PDs later than the cut-off date DO NOT get approved.
This happened to 1000's of us in EB3 in 2005 when EB3 RoW became 'Unavailable' after we had concurrently filed I-140.
Now, this does not mean that processing stops (I got 2nd fingerprinting, etc), it just means that the I-485 cannot be approved until PD is reached. Since my PD (03-may-02) has now been reached, my approval is mere weeks away --- because processing continued up to the point of approval.
Now, Schedule A's of course, benefit from being able to look at TWO categories (Schedule A and either Eb2 or EB3, depending on how their I-140 was slotted). Whichever of these has a cut-off after their PD, will be the category they get approved under.
Assuming you get your 485 approved in a week or two, can you tell us how long it took for them to process your 485? If you tell me your receipt date of 485, that will be sufficient. Thx.

Hi
please read this
In all cases, the date the labor certification is filed (directly with the United States Department of Labor for PERM applications, or with a State Workforce Agency for RIR applications)
from the wikipedia link
Priority date - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_date)
------------------
Can some one clarify if the PD is based on the day labor application was received or the day it was approved?
My I140 states it as the day it was approved.

Please shut your mouth. You do not know and feel what we are going thru (PBEC victim). As a member of this community, and have contibuted monetary support, I too, would like to have the problem in PBEC be heard.
There is only one thing I suggest, please do not have this guy "prolegalimmi" speak in front of the congressman.
With all due respect to your point of view without being rude, I am a BEC victim from April 2001. I have been waiting to get my Labor Certification from April of 2001. Till date, I know it may be in one of the BECs if it wasn't lost in transit. I was not able to obtain a screen shot nor do I have a 45 day letter. Still I say, when setting priorities, set it on what can be accomplished in the next two weeks, I agree with you in using the IVs opportunity to speak to bring all issues. But definitely not agree with your tone of voice. IV has clearly stated in its media relations page that members that have no respect to opinions and have no decency in their language can be taken out or censored.
Thanks for your time.

What is anyone willing to do to get the updates ??
...we could leverage the enormous dedication of the core team and multiply it several fold, ....
Completly agree with this point.. no questions there.. we need to have more people who can help multiply the efforts of CORE..
...
there are several ways in which we could implement the update process so that information is only shared to a predefined "pool" ... I know this takes work, but if the Core is looking for a person to pull together a Conference Call to compile this update and send it out, I would be glad to volunteer my services.
lets wait to hear how CORE wants to have that pool generated.
my thoughts, people can contriute, (a) money only (b) money and some personal time (to gather data and compile them) (c) money and personal time to organize state chapter meetings and meet with local autorities or senstors (this is state chapter leaders today) and (d) money + lot if time + lobbying (CORE)...
I have seen some emails in GA chapter for some meetings.. Working actively in those state chapters and contributing should be a good "pool" who can get these updates... also, this will encourage genuine people to participate proactively in state chapters and grow IV, which is the main goal for any grass-roots org.

You are correct. The rules must have changed recently. I wonder what made them make that change, Now children of US citizens (who were once Indian citizens) have an advantage over children who has both parents as Indian citizens. Weird.. isn't it?
Damn..even our own Indian govt discriminates :( . Kids of parents with Indian passport are suspicious..

Best answer so far. One more thing, you can hold back some silly thing making sure you get RFE
Didn't do that(For my own personal reasons). Hoping for having enough time (1 day or two max) before my PD gets current and I send in my future wife's AOS on the first day they become current. If it gets approved, I am screwed and she has to have her own GC processing.
Also, send your application just before Aug 17th (say 15th).
I couldn't wait, because I have to attend my sister's marriage on Sep5th, so, now, I am waiting for the receipt. I am in such a bind, looks like I aged two years in 15 days :) .

My wife has a H1 since oct 2006 till date she hasn't worked and hence has no pay stubs. her passport has a F2 visa. I want to convert her visa to H4. Her employer is asking for 6k to generate 3 paystubs for 3 months. I dont want to pay so much. if we go to canada to get H4 stamping will they ask for her pay stubs or just my pay stubs are enough.
Is there any chance of rejection. also can I go to canada for stamping or do i have to go to home country.
is there any site or posting that explains the process of applying for H4 in canada.
Thanks for any help
Ask your lawyer.
Home Country is better option. Why? Ask your lawyer.
For H4 visa at consulate, previous out of status does not matter. Why? Ask your lawyer.
When your F1 Status expired, her F2 Status too expired. What to do? Ask your lawyer.
Using fake pay stubs can land you in deep sh***. Why? Ask your lawyer.
She has been out of status > 180 days. Filing I-485 has big risk. Why? Ask your lawyer.
Have you contributed to IV?
Not a legal advice.

Like you I had been waiting since 2005 (when my labor and I 140 got approved) for my PD to be current. Now that its been current since October 1, 2008 and even had been current in few months in early 2008 I realize that its just one more wait.
Nothing is going top happen by increasing quota unless USCIS speeeds up processing and decised to process based on a documented criteia (right now its completely random as TSC and NSC are out of synch and neither seems to follow any sequence of PD, ND or RD).
Me and others like me have been waiting since 2001 and we are still stuck even though PD is current. We have a special thread for us who are pre OCt 2001 PD and are still waiting. So if anything focus on getting USCIS to process orderly and efficiently. If you increase quota but dont change USCIS behaviour you will be worse off.
Hello nozerd
Call your local congressman or Congresswoman and Senator. They will help your case. My friend was in same situation and they helped him. He got his GC in 2 months after calling his congressman.
Hello All:
This is a very sad for EB3, there is no movement since 2004 Dec except 2007 fiasco. Our best option is right now to send a letter to local congress member and Senator. Tell your story in the letter. When did you come, what is your investment, future investment, career stagnant and our life is hanging in the middle of no-where. I will suggest to everyone to send the same letter to Local news paper also. At least you will see some kind reponse from politician here. I have alwyas receive a response from house members and senators. I think we should send the same letter to Ombudsman too. This is my thoughts. If gorup have some other idea. Please let us know.

Lawmakers will listen to folks who participate in lobby/advocacy activities..apparently H-1B lobby/advocacy is louder than the GC backlog lobby/advocacy and that's what we hear in the news.
Compete America is advocating GC reforms for US educated work force. I am sure most of lawmakers do not know how retrogressed India and china are. Also media is confused too.
