Godbless, I am sure you can get your post 6 years H-1B extension based on the Cornin and new Aytes memo of 12-5-2006. Can you ask your lawyer whether it is possible to file your H-1B extension after 01/26/2007 but BEFORE June 2007 or it must be filed before the expiry of your parolee I-94? Also, you said the Immigration Officer at the POE did not let you use your H visa but the AP. Is it because you showed him both of your H-1B visa and AP? If you did not show the AP, he would probably let you enter with the H-1B visa, right?
Sorry for my knowledge but why would anyone need an AP if he has ample time left on H1 ? Is it a rule that after filing I-485 , you have to have an AP to travel ?

It seems like you are smarter than others or may be you have more insight.
How come total pre-adjudicated in the chart is exactly equal to total I-485 in the pdf ?
What exactly total in chart tool means ?
You might be convinced that you are right but stating that others are asking stupid questions is little too far.
Its not that I think I am smarter or have any additional insight...but I take things at face value. Of course the total number of pending cases in the chart and in the PDF should match - they both are exactly what they say they are "PENDING EMPLOYMENT BASED I-485 cases" If that's what the report title says, that's exactly what it means. No point in over-analyzing if this is just for pre-adjudicated or only primary applications etc....
I say stupid questions because people still ask "Does the PDF report contain numbers for dependents or only for primary applicants" - so you are telling me that this is not clear from the PDF report??

Hi friends,
My husband and me work for the same company now. He applied in EB3 (India) and PD date with December 2006. I-140 approved and I-485 applied in July 2007. Got EAD and AP for both but still working on H1B (Not used EAD and AP).
From other company, in 2007, I applied for labor substitution and it is approved yesterday, which has PD Nov 2004 (EB3 - India). One of my friend working for this company and I got the reference last moment and I was not hoping for this approval.
Now I have to switch to this company as the company management are asking me to join the company. I read many threads in this forum and this thread too about multiple filings of I485s and withdraw one while applying other.
I read some people had no problems with multiple I-485s. But Murthy's advice is against this while others like Rajiv in favour of this.
Please advice me what could be the best in my case.
I have PG in engineering (CS) from India.
Thanks in advance

In such trying times its awesome to find individuals in the media willing to lend a receptive ear to the hardships faced by all of us and write a wonderful news article on it. Its even more significant especially because when people who should be listening to our concerns and who have the ability to address these issues have turned deaf ears.
She and other media personnel who have helped highlight this issue deserve at least a thank you note.
Just my thoughts.....
Dear Non-Indian Members,
When Xiyun Yang talked to me yesterday, I did mention that there are more Chinese and Pakistanis and people from other countries
She was very much interested in talking to them. ( I had mentioned this in my previous post, but would have got lost in the barrage of posts in the last few days)
I would suggest, that non-Indians, please contact Xiyun @
email:yangx@washpost.com
office phone: 202 334 6701
Also, please leave a comment on her article in the washington post and mention which country you belong and how this is also your issue, as much as everybody else
We definitely want to make this an universal issue and not just an Indian Issue

Due to the pending caseload at NSC, the processing time of your I485 application has been extended. Allow extra time for an officer to review your application. Furthermore if all intial evidence was not included with your application or a question arose during adjudication that required a RFE additional time would be needed.
Your application remains awaiting review by an Officer and you will be notified as soon as decision is made. The service is waiting for VISA availability
got this message for my wifes SR opened on 07/30, did anyone got the same response?

Its sad to see this policy is working. Divide on EB3/EB2 bases etc. We are fighting a common cause to eliminate employment based country quota system. I'm surprised that IV is allowing such threads to be posted. If it so, its a v sad day for IV.
Read your post again, we are already divided. Why would ROW candidate want to eleminate country quota and let you be in front of him...

Chandu, to what information?
If you look at form I-9, it says within a highlighted box that it is "illegal" to discriminate based on the kind of work authorization document a person has.
www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-9.pdf On the list of acceptable documents, I think it will be DL from column B and EAD #7 in column C, page 4.

"Letter Template #1":
Date:
The Honorable George W. Bush
President of the United States
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Mr. President:
I write today to urge you to fix America’s broken legal employment-based immigration system. Currently, more than 500,000 skilled individuals who contribute to the American economy through their hard work in high technology, scientific research, medicine and other fields find themselves trapped in a process that is hopelessly backlogged. If nothing is done, hundreds of thousands of immigrants will wait years or even decades in a process that was never intended to take so long. While comprehensive change will require legislative action, your administration can implement administrative remedies to improve America’s competitiveness, eliminate bureaucratic inefficiencies, and improve the quality of life for these legal, highly-skilled immigrants.
Attracting and retaining the best and brightest minds from around the world is in America’s best interest. In February 2006, your Domestic Policy Council issued a report on the American Competitiveness Initiative that recognized the importance of employment-based immigration. The report stated:
“The President also recognizes that enabling the world's most talented and hardest-working individuals to put their skills to work for America will increase our entrepreneurship and our international competitiveness, and will net many high-paying jobs for all Americans. The United States benefits from our ability to attract and retain needed immigrant and non-immigrant students and workers, and it is important that America remains competitive in attracting talented foreign nationals.”
You can advance your stated objective by making common-sense administrative reforms to fix a system that is clearly broken.
Implementing much-needed reforms will also free government resources to focus on pressing national security matters. For example, current rules require the Department of Homeland Security to renew the Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) of hundreds of thousands of legal immigrants each year as those immigrants wait for green cards and permanent residency in the U.S. Rather than renew these EADs annually, the government could renew these documents every three years, freeing countless hours that could be better spent serving the Department’s mission.
The greatest impact of the broken green card process is borne by the legal immigrants and their families. The more than half million highly-skilled legal immigrants already working productively in the United States find themselves trapped in a system that is taking years longer than intended. During this wait for a green card, these immigrants remain trapped in a legal maze, unable to change jobs – even within the same employer – without starting the arduous immigration process over again, and subject to waits that grow longer and longer.
We implore you to exercise your authority to implement administratively these much-needed reforms.
• Recapture administratively the unused visas for permanent residency to fulfill the congressional mandate of 140,000 green cards per year.
• Revise the administrative definition of “same or similar” to allow slight additional job flexibility for legal immigrants awaiting adjudication of adjustment of status (I-485) petitions.
• Allow filing of Adjustment of Status (Form I-485) when a visa number is not available.
• Implement the existing interim rule to allow issuance of multi-year Employment Authorization Documents (EAD) and Advance Parole.
• Allow visa revalidation in the United States.
• Reinstate premium processing of Immigrant Petitions.
I urge you to implement these administrative remedies without delay. Action is urgently needed to fulfill your stated goal of attracting and retaining highly-skilled legal immigrants from around the world, eliminating bureaucratic inefficiency, and improving the lives of future Americans already living and working legally in the United States.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

SA 3275. Mr. LEVIN submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by him to the bill H.R. 3093, making appropriations for the Departments of Commerce and Justice, and Science, and Related Agencies for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008, and for other purposes; as follows:
At the appropriate place, insert the following:
SEC. __. ANNUAL REPORT ON DELAYED BACKGROUND CHECKS.
(a) In General.--Not later than 60 days after the end of each fiscal year, the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation shall submit a report to the congressional committees listed in subsection (b) that contains, with respect to the most recently completed fiscal year--
(1) a statistical analysis of the number of background checks processed and pending, including check requests in process at the time of the report and check requests that have been received but are not yet in process;
(2) the average time taken to complete each type of background check;
(3) a description of the efforts and progress made by the Director in addressing any delays in completing such background checks; and

I think we are assuming that this will continue to be the case through Oct 2010. What if DOL changes policies with PERM approval tomorrow or the economy starts improving by March? EB2 ROW is current and there will be quite a few PERM's from them which will be adjusted immediately. We'll have to wait till the Sep results are in and the data is adjusted with 2005 EB2 numbers. Hopefully all < 2005 should be taken care of for EB2.

09/23/2009: Official PERM Labor Certification Application Processing Times as of 09/30/2009
U.S. Department of Labor, Office of Foreign Labor Certification has just released the current processing time of permanent labor certification applications as of the end of this month. The date represents the date the applications were first filed, which is also called priority date.
Final Reviews (Clean Cut Cases): December 2008
Audit Cases: October 2007
Standard Appeal Cases: August 2007
Gov't Error Appeal Cases: Current
The last four-month processing times confirm that even though its FY 2010 (10/01/2009-09/30/2011) budget proposal estimated that the PERM processing times would be nine (9) months, actually the nine-month processing time started in the second-half of FY 2009. Accordingly, the employers hiring permanent foreign workers must understand that at least for the next one year, processing times of PERM applications will not improve and should learn to live with it and plan accordingly in their recruitment and hiring practices. Foreign workers should also take the delayed processing times of permanent labor certification application in their journeys in nonimmigrant status, on top of the State Department's predicted visa number problems coming year.

Hello all
I am a silent visitor of this website.
Just my 2 cents... Don't think USA is like India where you can do something forcefully. Why don't you guys understand the real problem of USCIS.
Do you think that by sending flower to USCIS will force them to make EB2/EB3 current for 2005/2006/2007 guys??
Please try to understand their problem.
Also India is the great. Why don't you guys just think that India is your home country where you are born and brought up. Why you people can't just wait and watch?? If nothing happens to the so called GC, then why don't you think to pack up and go back to India???????
My sincere request, please don't do rally, you might be arrested......you never know what they can do..... Don't you think that, it is better to go back to India rather than being embarrassed here in US???
Isn't it a shame on us to go for Rally to get GC?????:D
Just think that you will get it when time comes, otherwise pack up.
Please don't take much tension as life is very short. I am assuring you all, nothing will happen with law suit and flower campaign.Don't irritate USCIS by doing all this please.

Smita, you are propogating an incorrect and baseless thought. First, should we not stand up for what is legally ours; be it GC or any other right. There is no shame is demanding what you deserve. Would you not retaliate if a wrong was done to you or your family. The days of British Raj are gone, dear. Grow up and stand for your right, and don't be ashamed.
Second, all the efforts from this community are making much much noice- as in getting media attention. Even if we don't see immediate benefits, others would. So, think for others and long term
Third, don't be a pessimist. you don't get arrested for peaceful rallies. There is still law and order in US. And, please do not discourge us.
Last, please join the folks in rallies and other efforts.

2. PD: Dec 21 2005
3. NSC
4. I-485 Receipt Date: July 2 2007
5. I-485 Notice Date: July 30 2007
6. What I did: SR on 2/8 (File pending and awaiting assigning to officer) wife SR 2/8 (Actively working and need additional review)...wife is a dependent
7. Went for infopass on 2/8 afternoon (First day when I was current)...guy told me your cases are pre-adjudicated and files are with officer and same for me. Was happy
8. Called second level IOs from 3/8 till 3/14 everyday.
9. Some were knowledgeable and some were not but more or less good people I met
10. One good person on 3/10 told me Mr Sharma your file is in transit...may be in some crate or some bin and might be on the move to an officer...I said Infopass guy told me they are with officers then he said clearly NO...your status is in transit and your files are NOT assigned to officer and your paralegals July 23 referral is still open and I cannot expedite it. So write to NSC follow up and mention my name and tell to expedite your case and see if they oblige you and help you. Thats your only hope. I cannot override your outstanding July 23 2010 referral.
11. I did that and surprisingly nobody replied to that and few days earlier I had written to same email id and I got standard response for me and my wife
12. I wrote to Ombudsman last Wed and yesterday after a follow somebody acknowledged and said we will take action
13. I contacted senator office in mid July 2010 and after full one month I was in their system and congressional staffer was assigned to me and he called me and said on Monday evening I am writing to NSC Liasion and told me to wait for 2 weeks
14. To my surprise he forwarded me NSC update which said files are with adjudicating officer and it did say that they are processing 4000 cases in a month.
15. Congressional aide called me and said per his experience this is a + email and you can be approved anytime now.
16. At 6.02 am there were 2 SMS and I checked online status changed to decision and then emails which said welcome new permanent residents
17. I have been in US for 10 yrs now. Did full time MBA (F1) and then switched 2 jobs, it was a second GC as I left a March 2005 labor and started new Perm labor with the second company on H1B
18. Was able to file through July 2007 VB fiasco
19. Left the company after 250 days and switch on H1B transfer and ported my GC
20. My current employer attorney did file for AC21
21. Was waiting for this current window of opportunity
Honestly I did everything I could do and did NOT leave any table unturned. I dont know what worked or not but yes I tried each and everything.
IV is a fantastic platform indeed. I respect each and every member and I will help in every possible way indeed.
Now few questions and clarifications:
1. My wife is in India returning on sat evening. She was on H4.
2. When she left I gave her advance paroles original
3. I also gave her print out of I-485 receipt
4. I told her to print out USCIS GC approval email that came today
Now questions:
1. She should go to which queue at POE, Visa or the ones for citizens/permanent residents?
2. What she should tell the IO? When she left she was on H4 and on Aug 17th my 485 was approved and here is the proof (approval email print out) and ask the IO to respond?
3. What will happen then? She will be taken somewhere and they will put D-155 stamp on her passport OR she would be allowed to enter on her Advance Parole or She will be admitted on H4 with I-94?
Anybody has the same experience, kindly explain me so that I can inform my wife immediately.
If anybody wants any help with any step please send me private message please. Would be glad to help.
Best Regards,
I got greened today. Same here for me and my wife. I voted on the poll for me. Let me know if you want me to add one more for my wife too.
Here are my details for your reference:
1. EB2 India
2. PD: Dec 21 2005
3. NSC
4. I-485 Receipt Date: July 2 2007
5. I-485 Notice Date: July 30 2007
6. What I did: SR on 2/8 (File pending and awaiting assigning to officer) wife SR 2/8 (Actively working and need additional review)...wife is a dependent
7. Went for infopass on 2/8 afternoon (First day when I was current)...guy told me your cases are pre-adjudicated and files are with officer and same for me. Was happy
8. Called second level IOs from 3/8 till 3/14 everyday.
9. Some were knowledgeable and some were not but more or less good people I met
10. One good person on 3/10 told me Mr Sharma your file is in transit...may be in some crate or some bin and might be on the move to an officer...I said Infopass guy told me they are with officers then he said clearly NO...your status is in transit and your files are NOT assigned to officer and your paralegals July 23 referral is still open and I cannot expedite it. So write to NSC follow up and mention my name and tell to expedite your case and see if they oblige you and help you. Thats your only hope. I cannot override your outstanding July 23 2010 referral.
11. I did that and surprisingly nobody replied to that and few days earlier I had written to same email id and I got standard response for me and my wife
12. I wrote to Ombudsman last Wed and yesterday after a follow somebody acknowledged and said we will take action
13. I contacted senator office in mid July 2010 and after full one month I was in their system and congressional staffer was assigned to me and he called me and said on Monday evening I am writing to NSC Liasion and told me to wait for 2 weeks
14. To my surprise he forwarded me NSC update which said files are with adjudicating officer and it did say that they are processing 4000 cases in a month.
15. Congressional aide called me and said per his experience this is a + email and you can be approved anytime now.
16. At 6.02 am there were 2 SMS and I checked online status changed to decision and then emails which said welcome new permanent residents
17. I have been in US for 10 yrs now. Did full time MBA (F1) and then switched 2 jobs, it was a second GC as I left a March 2005 labor and started new Perm labor with the second company on H1B
18. Was able to file through July 2007 VB fiasco
19. Left the company after 250 days and switch on H1B transfer and ported my GC
20. My current employer attorney did file for AC21

The last month of the fiscal year is generally much much better. I doubt approvals for Oct will be anywhere near that.....especially since it is the first month and they will go slow...and November visa availability will be an eye opener.....not much hope....

I think he can just talk the talk.. it takes backbone to walk the walk.
These people are causing fissures in the community for their petty self-interests... just by plain talk.. It took years to build it.. and we see some hope because of what IV has achieved and things that are in pipeline.
At this critical juncture, if people are causing rift in the community and trying to sabotage our campaigns then such people need to be challenged.
if we are united we can achieve a lot!
United we succeed and divided we fail!!
Dude,
Looks like Rolling_Flood has not yet voted on this poll. I thought he will be the first Yes for this poll.
Are you guys planning to file separate lawsuits?

I was wondering why the status went backwards (from CPO to Decision) and if that that is a normal process.
Thanks,
I got one more email with the update (this is third email with the same staus "CPO"). This time I have SLUD on EAD and AP also. Here is the email...
Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Your Case Status: Card/ Document Production
On September 14, 2010 we mailed the document to the address we have on file. You should receive the new document within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.
My wife received here Welcome letter but I did not get one yet. Here is my timeline...
09/08/2010 - CPO emails for self and wife
09/09/2010 - Got emails updating the status to Decision for self and wife
09/10/2010 - Standard CPO email to self
09/11/2010 - Wife got the welcome letter (I-797) by USPS
09/15/2010 - CPO email to self with the new message (Document sent to address on file)
Still waiting for cards in hand.
Thanks,
