Logiclife,
I came to know from my company's attorney that this is my company policy NOT a USCIS policy that i must go back to IL (where Labor was originally opened) and then only my company will file I-485 for me
Oh well!

Is there a system in place, for TSC ONLY, using which, an immigration attorney, who is an AILA member, can send an email, with LIN numbers (or A #, i am not sure which), to TSC, if the PD is current? Once this email is received, the system flags the case to be picked up by an IO?
This system was put in place a couple of years ago, but I am not sure if it is still active, or if it is active, does TSC even bothers monitoring it.
Thank you for the answer. I dont have any attorney. I did whole GC process by myself.

I am in the same boat. I see 4 or 5 people postings of this messages.
None one else this forum in this situation. Why not we gather how many of us are affected? Then it will be easier for us to plan and request our case to be included on IV agenda.

Slumdog,
You did exactly what you have accused others of(that is bashing). You could have simply opined, put your point through and left. But you went further than that, I don't understand what is the whole idea of one group passing judgment on others. There are EB2 better than EB3 threads, the labor substitutes vs. honest to God super qualified deserving PERM filers, then there is US educated vs. non US educated and now renters vs. home owner and savers vs. big spenders. What I fail to understand is, if you have to make your point please do so but keep your opinion about others to yourself on your blogs or you personal websites.
Now coming to the point:
These people do not want to buy houses not because they cannot afford or they want to play safe. They just don’t want to spend. All they care is Saving, Saving, saving their entire life & keep filling their bank balances. Often strangely both couples are working.
What's wrong if a couple is saving and filling their bank accounts ? Tell me one thing that is wrong about being frugal ? May be they are saving to for their future education or for their kids education ? For a small business ? or Simply retiring at 40 ? or May be having a bank account full of money gives them same pleasure that you get from your McMansion ? Or they simply want to live debt free and sleep well at night. So unless I have some material possession to show for my money, I am wasting it all away ? Isn't it ?
These are people who want to live in cheapest rent (even with double income) in single bedroom & they don’t mind children sleeping in their bed room. They don’t mind sending their children to low grade schools.
If you want to throw your hard earned money and pay the highest possible rents, please go ahead. Don't preach. Public education is free and private school are not cheap so please explain what do you mean by "Low Grade Schools" ? Besides renters can choose any school they want by simply renting in the best school district at all grades. Your point doesn't make sense. Besides living frugally gives your kids a better shot at quality education then overspending on unnecessary things.
Their intention to come into this country is only for earning money & because they don’t have high ambitions & all they care is saving & not spending, they just think of saving in all possible ways.
Making money is a perfectly fine ambition is a capitalistic country. May be their ambition is to save early and then provide the best for their family by working part time in later years. Please define "high ambition" ? Buying a high rise condo ? McMansion in a suburb ? Would that instantly qualify me to be an ambitious achiever ?
They call themselves rich because of bank balances but in my
It doesn't matter what your views are, if they have money in the bank they are actually "rich". If they can maintain the same life style in good times and bad times, they are rich. They can provide food, shelter and health insurance for their family during tough times, they are rich. Unfortunately your views will NOT pay bills, so you can distribute them freely on this forum all you want it won't make a difference.
They call themselves rich because of bank balances but in my view they are poor than most of homeless guys who live out streets.
Don't insult someone just because he/she is homeless. People do go through tough times and not everyone is fortunate to have smooth sailing all along. You said have seen it all but you haven't learned to be humble !!! May be you ain't seen nothing yet. Start with "Pursuit of Happiness" the movie that is.

It is obvious that DOL backlog center is processing cases with utter disregard to FIFO procedures. Some people with priority dates in 2004 or 2005 have obtained their labor certifications, but some people with priority dates in 2001 or 2002 still do not know what is happening to their cases. If we file lawsuit against DOL on their inability to maintain FIFO procedures, what are the chances of success? Their inability to maintain FIFO procedures has brought great misery in lives of the people who stood in line for so many years so patiently.
Just like the Right to Information act that was passed in India recently, the US also has the "Freedom of Information Act". I think you can ask for documentation from the agency to get information such why its taking so long for your application.

Today I received e-mail from USCIS stating --> "Service records indicate that your case was approved and your I-551 card was mailed on May 9, 2011 to the address we had on file at that time. Please check with your local Post Office for undeliverable mail. Your document has not been returned to us. "
Looks like I am greened. But when I check my status on uscis.gov it shows "initial review" same from last 4 years, there is no LUD change also. I didn't receive any welcome e-mail or card production ordered. Is anyone in same scenario? Is this normal process?

Can someone help me with this...
As per the new rules for indian passport nenewal, you are supposed to fill an online form which would prepare a PDF file with your entries , and then you have to take a printout and submit it at the cosulate.
But the problem is, there are many more questions in the PDF from which are not even mentioned in the online form.
My dilemma is,
What do I do with the entries in the PDF form (passport) that are NOT filled by the online form ? Am I supposed to fill them by pen or just leave them alone ?

Can you give me some reasons why visas are unused and a percentage.
In other words, why would someone go through all the paperwork and then not get the visa?
He meant that 140k Visa numbers allocated each year, out of which less number Visas are actually processed by CIS, all the unused visa numbers in the past which might be more than 300k should be used now to reduce the backlog.

D. EMPLOYMENT VISA AVAILABILITY IN THE COMING MONTHS
There has been no forward movement of the Employment cut-off dates for November. The reason for this is that it is still too early to see what impact the movement of the cut-off dates toward the end of FY-2007 may have on demand. Depending on the rate of demand being received from Citizenship and Immigration Services offices for adjustment of status cases, some forward movement of dates may be possible for December.
It is very clear that USCIS is yet to complete the receipt of all I-485 applications and are not in a position to give any statistics to DOL. I think then they will be busy in issuing AP / EAD based on the receipt. Considering the current work load, I think it will take at least couple of months for the USCIS to give any reasonable estimate to DOL regarding the actual demand. Till that time, I think DOL will be forced to publish the same status every month. :(
I wish USCIS can use the people worked in Backlog Elimination centers to issue EAD / AP and clear I-485 receipts and provide some meaningful figures to DOL. [I hope they do not create another July bulletin fiasco :D]

You have rasied very valid point and Canada credit 50% of the time before getting PR there. But I don't think this is so easy to get due to chain migration fear.
Can you explain how this will lead to chain migration?. I am not sure.

maybe it is because of the Easter holiday and the long weekend. that can be a reason or maybe it will pick up at the beg of April. I am not sure what s the reason, but we are all worried
Looks like approvals has slowed down further.
This is why at the end of the year there are unused visas. All due to inefficiencies of USCIS.
We are doomed.

Some of members in Nor. Cal are checking their schedule to make sure they can participate in the August San Francisco event.
Hopefully, we should have some more ppl sign-up
That is great news!! I am excited to hear that we will be getting the support of NorCal Members.
Team IV has reached a membership of 27 members as of today. I have several more to confirm by this weekend.
That is nearly $9000 in fundraising efforts that we can target! $9000 may not be much, but it can be put to good use for lobbying of new bills, especially the three new bills introduced recently for highly skilled legal immigrants pending GCs.

This has become a ranting thread of EB3 folks. One simple question:
How many of you EB3 India folks who are complaining actually went to Washingtno DC last month for IV Advocacy event?
I hear it was not even 250 people. If you take out all EB2 people, so few EB3 people. This means EB3 people do not really want to do anything but after every visa bulletin come to the site and rant.
We in EB2 do not have much to worry. Our dates will move fast. But you EB3 had a chance last month and you blew it by not doing anything. So stop complaining.
I dont think we all are complaining...We are just thinking out loud hopefully some solution / direction comes out of it. But one thing is sure people certainly did not like your attitude.. It could be that you are deliberately trying to instigate something just for fun or maybe you are having a bad moment or may be none of these, I was just trying to think the rationale behind your comments ...(could be even u just stated something and people didn't understand whatever u really meant and applied thier own interpretation)...only u or god knows the truth...I dont have anything against u and know for sure that even u dont have anything against us.
