I was in Indian consulate for renewing the passport. I went there on time and there was a pathetic guy at the entrance who refuse to speak other than hindi. Though I told him that I do not understand hindi, he never listen to that and started his conversation with hindi.
Then comes the worst part. A cab driver went to him and handed over some dollar note and got the token. Then the driver handed over the token to the passenger and left. That guy got into the line well before me and got his work done. @#$K those people.
if you are a desi no reason for you to not know hindi mate....hamara bharat mahan

I filed my 485 in July 11th and have received the 485 receipts. There is a possibility that I might get laid off before Jan 11 (180 days). My H1 B expires Nov 2008.
Questions
1. Can I stay legally in US if I get laid off in Oct 07 ?
2. How can I proceed with my Green Card process ?
I think this might be a repeat question, but would still like to get your thoughts.
Gagan
If your I-140 is approved and if ur employer could continue ur GC for more than 180 days as a future employee you could work for another employer on H1B till then and then the new employer could take over ur GC process. However plz check with an attorney though.

That is why IV core wants people to sign up for Recurring contributions....
So that they have an idea of their resources in terms of Cash...and can pursue our objective pro-actively rather than on the spur of the moment like it hapened in senate over last 3 weeks.
Please sign up for recurring contributions...even if its $20/month
Still Less than your cable bill per month

My company does not allow us to pay for our own labor. It is against the law. My company was not doing new perm labors for people who had already applied in regular processing.
Coming to present situation, my company attorneys are so overloaded with labor work that they have become very slow in responding. Now it will be even worse since everybody will be applying for 485. I feel they have created a choas.
Look, i sympathize with you but you SHOULD HAVE poured in some money to start a parallel PERM application ..... PERM started from APR 2005 - you got almost 2 years +
My case is also like you but my Labor was 2 years old and applied just
before PERM and it went straightway to Phily Backlog center ... I thought
of applying for a Parallel PERM but mine was a RIR ( quicker) and Phily was saying that they would clear all Backog by SEP 2007 ( another 2 months)
Did you check your status in Backlog tracker ??

This link works.: (www.HSC.house.gov).
This is regarding the recent ( rather today's) enquiry with House Committee of Judiciary on SKIL bill, HR-5744. The bill is referred to Committee on Home land security.
They are on recess till Monday. The first step is to Mark up this bill on there calendar. That is very important. I do not know how we can influence them to do so.
We need to work specially with small group of House of rep under House of Committee on Homeland security. (www.HSC.house.gov).
I believe that chairman of this committee is the most powerful person; it is usually one man show.
We need to draft a letter specifying the chairman.
It is much better to convey one person that 500 representative.
I will be drafting a personal letter and sending him by email, by post and fax.
Based on petition posted in this website , I see almost 1000 people signed. If 1000 people do the same thing to Chairman Rep.Peter King, there is a good chance that he will atleast look at the matter.

Franklin, yes, Ombudsman report includes ALL I-485 numbers, plus ALL naturalizations. Among all of them EBs are a small number.
What I was trying to understnd by running the numbers, where does the "leacky bucket" go over time. Imagine EB category as a leacky bucket - new workers on H1Bs are getitng their documents done, that goes to adds, and approvals are being given out, that goes to substracts. If the expected new petititons being ready are more than 140K, the total bucket will grow. If it is less, it will shrink. What I am basically saying, it is between 10K and 20K less adds than deletes, so the backlog should shrink over time (not tomorrow, of course). And it will start shrinking from EB3 ROW, because that is where the unused numbers end up. By watching EB3 ROW number we should be able to tell how fast the pool is shrinking.
Also, in the concept of the leaky bucket, it becomes essential not to lose any numbers, this is why 10K lost numbers a year is unacceptable. Personally, I think advocating number recapture is a waste of time (better off advocating quota increases), but we should be vigilant about CIS not losing numbers going forward.
Efficiency of precessing, in my opinion, is not an issue at all, at least on the USCIS side. FBI is a different story, but even for them, it is rare that cases are stuck for more than two years. Retrogression is the real culpit - being stuck in retro for 5 years is not unusual, and this is a whole lot worse than namecheck. By the way, because naturalizations are also subject to namechecks, there is enough outrage out there that I think namecheck issue will be solved in the next year or so.
The numbers game is really a 6 of one, half a dozen of the other - since we can only best guess it all - as I think this healthy debate has shown!
Efficiency of processing is a HUGE problem! Why do you think the visa numbers have gone unused? Your statement perplexes me somewhat. The name check isn't the only reason that there are delays. The Ombudsman's 1st 3 annual reports documents where the inefficiencies are.
In reality, its a complex problem that is a combination of many things;Inefficiencies in processing,Retrogression, country limits etc etc
I'm sorry, you just piqued my interest. You just seemed to be saying "there is no problem"

Looks like Ombudsman is trying harder to be recognised as most disliked person and increasing number of red dots against him also certify that!!
It reminds me someone called 'catdog' in another forum. Lets try to ignore him and hope for the best.

Thanks much for your valuable feedback, and I agree to your points and suggestions.

You do realize I will hold you to your last point now though :)
To the people that did attend, I re-iterate, please don't judge people who post their honest opinion. We should take this opportunity to learn why people choose not to come so we can improve our strategy for next time.
