Very quick response.. good. You are trying to do a good job.
You missed two points:
Can you please update your profile.
And you said "As some of you know...." . Were you trying in these lines before too. Can you direct me to any one of your forums more than 2 months old where we can see what you did before.
Trust me, in the past we knew of some guys who tried to distract the forum attention with proposals of doing somethings in the lines as you have said. Their goal is to distract and divert attention.
Not that we do not trust you, but we expect you have atleast your profile updated.
What do you do, when you come across someone who says I can get you a big job done for you, as I have contacts.. Not blindly trust, right.. We also check he his credentials. I am to some extent doing that, to be frank, not that everyone has profiles here with real information.
I told about you to my friends, and they asked me "Why do we trust him, dont you think he may be a Canadian who is trying to distract these innocent Indians and hence make sure they remain in backlogs"...
I think you and your friends become Paranoid... your each and every post is convincing me that. If you don’t trust anyone including the IV...why don’t you and your great friends lead the effort. It’s always easy to finger point, suspect and criticize others for whatever reason... Please don’t deviate from the original topic. We are here for long time and know what totoro is doing for this community. I request you to refrain from posting anything like this if you are not able to add anything useful to the thread and community. It is doing more harm than good...
What your great friends are doing. If they are so concerned about us, why don’t they join IV and lead the effort. just sitting on the fence and criticizing others...? I would request you to stop quoting your friends for anything.. we are not bothering what they are thinking about us and what we are doing specially when they are not part of the community. By the way they are the same friends who promised $3000 for IV? are they imaginary friends or real?

Not necessarily. Remember JULY 2nd.
July 2nd has to be cleared before July 7th!
gc4me, i had made a mistake, i was looking at the "Application Mailed" date instead of the PD, and got all excited.... i have since edited my response.

Dude, I was under the impression that coming on Sunday is enough. Are we going to have a call (at least at a state chapter level) before the event?

Years we have been told priority date establishes your place in the queue.
We have spurned job offers and declined the new PERM process to hold on to the priority dates.
Many are still awaiting labor certifications from the backlog elimination centers. Out comes USCIS and says everyone with a LC can file I140 & I485.
People still waiting for LC with priority dates in 2003-2004 are seeing applicants who have priority dates as late as 2007 but with approved LCs through PERM walk through to I485.
Net result, USCIS is going to be flooded with applicants enough to retrogress the priority dates 3-4 years back as early as september. (Everybody with a LC will be able to file for I485 in July). So applicants with priority dates of 2007 are going to get EAD and GC, while LC backlogged 2003 applicants to have to wait for another 3-4 years before they can even file I485.
Aint fair. Aint fair at all. How can this be. How can rules be changed in the middle of the game.
Why do you want a spoilsport bro. Everybody is rejoicing this moment. Let us not spoil everybody's moment here. I agree with ur reasoning, but the fact that everybody can apply for 485 brings justice to everybody. My PD is Mar 2004 and i am equally happy for all who can apply 485.

GC is given for a period of 10 years and not for ever.

Just had a Q..if the last one in the list is a senator (Robert Menendez), should we ask him to support the house bills? no matter what, I already asked him to...
You got it. Sen Menendez is a key member. Even though there is NO companion bill in the senate right now, we need his support.
realizeit,
Please hold on to the member list on the 1st page. As I said, we do have a reason why we are going with that member list. We will move as we needed.
I called offices. Please make sure that this list is also addressed. I do not understand why IV is ignoring this bill?

Got CPO email for both my spouse and myself. Details:
I Labor: June 2004
Quit company in 2005 Sept
II Labor: May 2006
I-485: July 2007
Got current twice after that but no luck with GC
Finally greened on 5/4/2011
Did not get any RFE. Last SLUD was Sept. 2010. No activity after that. And today got the CPO emails and SMS messages.
CONGRATS and Enjoy the freedom.

Very true - anyone who goes ahead in the queue is actually easing it up for the latter. This is Never about belittling a fellow sufferer.
If PhDs get a quota relief, will be good for all of us, although i personally will not qualify.
US Bachelors/Masters holders in a STEM field for example, will similarly ease up the system.
Hopefully all others will see it that way.
If there is anything targeted for any small group...I am sure other will not accept whatever may be the reason. Everyone desperately wants to get out of this mess. I don’t think freeing up the queue theory will help. That’s the reality.
For the shake of argumennt let me ask you...If I get my GC, it will free up one GC in line. Will you accept that and support this. This is the question in everyone's mind now.
United we stand...divided we fall.

GotGC??,
I don't think ppl understand how painful the wait in BEC's has been.
I am really apalled by the ppl in this thread who are saying don't complain about BEC. Their reaction can be summarized as follows:
"We are sorry you got have been getting screwed by BEC for 3-5 years but please be happy for those of us who started in PERM in 2005 and have been moaning about retrogression"
Oh Yeah??
So why didn't we accept the current retrogression as "injustice and screwed up process of USCIS" and just sat tight? Why did IV get started? Why threadful of messages moaning in agony over the retrogression? What warranted those threads, and for that matter, IV then?

Reverting back to the original interpretation for allocating unused visa from other category and to oversubscribed country from the current new interpretation seems to be the only possible quick relief to EB3, though EB2 gets affected it is not going to be that severe.
**** Not sure, what is core IV's stand on this. Have not seen any update from core with regards to this ***
If we can approach the USCIS /DOS for Admin fix in this area, this should be possible, given that IV already has some success in the Admin Fix area. But seeing the lack of response from core IV for this particular thread (Overall they do a good job) regarding spill over, visa allocation, makes me this, core IV is not thinking there is an error with the new interpretation or IV was one of the main source that was instrumental for this change. The new spillover helps only India (EB2) looking at the number of pending cases from China and ROW. China hardly has less than 1000 cases prior to Mar '05 PD for EB2.
I'm not sure what happened to fellow EB3 ROW members... These folks at least will be current soon.. and India / China cutoff date will move the later PD very soon.
Comment plz... I would like to see what ROW member thinks... along with folks from oversubscribed countries
The title of the thread is misleading.
IV is already helping. The aim of IV is to eliminate retrogression so that everyone does not have to wait. We also understand that EB3 I is in a much greater mess than anyone else.
Good to see a response from Pappu. I genuinely understand IV is working for a relief for the entire EB Community and not biased for a specific category or to people from a specific country. But would it not be justified, If IV also address any specific issue that is causing severely pain to a specific groups of people and affects them negatively , along side with the core goals IV is working on.
Does IV think that changes made to the interpretation to the VISA allocation a good change and does IV also share the concern of few folks posting in this thread.
I think the lack of more active participation from EB3 members is due to the fact, is lack of confidence anything is going to change.
I do know, couple colleagues, who were not able to file 485 during July fiasco due to their labor approval after July '07 and missed filing 485 with PD's 03 /04 all in EB3 and I do feel for people like them as well.
Give the political climate / economic climate, anything through congress seems like it will at least couple years, admin fix might provide some benefits to folks really waiting with PD 01 / 03 at least.... Just my 2 cents.
Having said this, I do support IV's effort now and will do in future as well.
