My colleague is EB3-I with priority date in early 2003. He is in the process of porting to EB2 instead of waiting for his date to be current.

Pappu,
Would you encourage people to post it in other immigration forums? We'll surely get plenty of interested people to participate and to fund.
Appreciate your great efforts!

USCIS reps did not mention any specific group to me. But what I was told was that, everyone's information should be in the USCIS system by August 1st. So urs would be too.
The group was just my analogy.

My employer sent in 30+ applications on July 2nd and said he doesn't know which one is my tracking number..but i guess i could use any one of those 30 tracking nos for proof, couldnt i?
Shd we be expecting rejection letters from USCIS per applicant stating the reason for rejection??? If not then what proof do we have for potential benefits of lawsuit?!? Confused :(

I know everything, i have been following these forums from past 3 yrs, but i responded to the post by ksircar, he said "I think some SELFISH people with recent PDs are scared as people with older PDs may take the quota" which was inappropriate, cursing core members or people who are eligible to file 485 doesn't help right? that's all i want to say.
Here I want to make clear, FIFO for taking labor applications and sending ad instructions not for approving. I know depending on compilcation of cases(I think), some cases with PD 2005 get approved fast and cases with PD 2003 are taking longer. I dont know why all these mess in DOL, for taking the labor applications and sending ad instructions.

I flew from Seattle. Started 4:00PM monday afternoon and reached 7AM tuesday. left 5PM tuesday and reached home at midnight. HAd to take an unpaid vacation.
I had asked IV for sponsorship.
I got sponsored for a non-stop and a very comfortable flight. but it was $700. Although IV was able to collect $700 for me(thanks to abhijit), i felt it was a little too much to be spending on one person. I raised another $150 from friends and $75 from my own pocket and bought 2 cheaper tickets instead(with bad schedules) and got another friend of mine to go with me.
I had a choice : spend $700 of IV money on one comfortable ticket
OR
spend $75 out of pocket and hours of talking to others to contribute and get one more person to go with me and fly a weird schedule..
I'm proud to have made the right choice!

I tried last year for my daughter.They will not issue SSN for child Alliens.I have argued showing 20 C.F.R. � 422.104(a)(3).There is no use.I got for my wife only with EAD.
In the SSN application, it says
If you check "Legal Alien Not Allowed to Work," you must provide a document from a U.S.
Federal, State, or local government agency that explains why you need a Social Security number and that you meet all of the requirements for the U.S. government benefit. [B][B]NOTE: Not all U.S.State or local benefits are acceptable for non-work SSN purposes. Contact SSA to see if your reason qualifies.
If you check "Other," you must provide a document from the U.S. government agency that explains why you need a Social Security number and that you meet all of the requirements for a Federal benefit except for the number.
I have shown stimulus payment document that says you must have SSN for getting stimulus payment.They didnot accept. Gov want to avoid H4s.purposefully they added SSN requirement.
One of friend told they give SSN provided child has some state ID card.But state ID cannot be issued untill 16 years age for PA state.If some one got SSN without EAD for H4 kindly post here it is very useful for H4s.
thanks

None has called a ban for anyone being differ but it's just the way you express your opinions by using the words like "herd mentality", "dimwitted" etc. Not that you have accepted that you are here for news only, I don't think we need people like you.
IV is not a news site. It's a group of people who are fighting for a common cause. One needs to understand the common cause is not just helping July filers or people affected with retrogress but a bigger aim of helping all the legal employment-based immigrants. But one also needs to understand that not all the objective can be accomplished at a time and we need to strike the iron when it's hot and make every opportunity count, be it a BEC, retrogression, July filer or Visa recapturing.
Having said that, I do agree that BEC is one of the issue which should definitely be focussing on next. I'm sure IV members (even if they are not a BEC victim) will support whole heartedly any cause which can bring some relief to BEC victms. What we need is a united front and some unique ideas like flower campaign. Do not forget the flower campaign idea was pursued by one of the IV member who was not part of core.
I think critics of both sides of the argument need to have their say but in a decent manner. This is a public forum and while personal opinions are welcome please be sensitive to the situation other people are in before making any statements. Everybody needs a place to vent out but this is not an forum for vents, it is for a common cause. While we acheive some small victories in this long wait the actual battle is ahead of us and lets not lose focus. There might be many of our fellow members who might become inactive because they recd their GC's or simply not interested anymore and yet at the same time there would be many more new members joining the group for help and advise.
It is imperative to understand , as often pointed out by logiclife, that one person's loss is not anothers gain here. While some of us may feel bad because even latest PERM approved can file 485 while BEC stuck filers are waiting in the benches there is no guarantee that they will get GC before us. If that were true then there would be not so many people waiting here for their GC's. I do feel worried to an extent about how this might affect my chances of getting a GC(waiting 7 yrs already, 485 filed 3 yrs ago) but is there anything we can do to change this? -certainly, the way to change it is to look at the big picture and try to eliminate the reasons for the backlog issue and see that reduced. If that is done and we see some changes on account of the SKILL bill or any of the other initiatives like re-capture of old unused visas or one Visa number per family then all of us would be in a better situation.
For those people who are insensitive to the emotions of people who are stuck in BEC remember till yesterday you were also cursing USCIS(irrespective of your PD) about not being able to file 485 and yet today you scorn those who feel wronged for not being able to file because of this BEC mess.
Lets all unite and try to work towards the large picture issues rather than squabbling over things like this. TO BAN or Not to BAN is IV moderators perogative, if somebody violated the spirit they need to get a warning and given a chance to change or then banned..my thoughts..
cheers

Well, it is all politics. All they can see right now is 12 million ill-legal people who will some day vote for some party. That is a big and growing vote bank which they can not ignore. Who cares for people like us? NO ONE. We are less than 0.5 million, most will probably never show to vote if granted citizenship. No one gives a dam for taxes we pay etc. The only chance that we could have is with the big corporations, but they too are quite for now. Jobs will simply move to other parts of the world.
Current generation of politicians here simply do not have the foresight. Reminds me of back home where politicians use to give out blankets to the poor before the elections to win votes.
May be it is the best for us that this bill has stalled, may be IV will have better luck next time. Let us all wait and see.

What about salary requirements?
I am planning to move to a State, where the cost of living is low and hence the salary is lower than what is specified in my LC.
Is that an issue?
Thanks
>> Any location restrictions when using AC21?
No.
AC-21 job should be same/similar and must be full-time position.

Votes are here:
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/vote.xpd?vote=s2008-10
The amendment was sponsored by Senator Ensign (R-Nevada) who said his staff discovered that the stimulus payments would go to illegal aliens.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSXqiyqLVd4
In reality, the change was the result of lobbying by FAIR, an anti-immigrant group:
http://www.fairus.org/site/PageServe...ter_friendly=1
FAIR is accused of having ties to White Supremacists.

I think for Indian EB-3s, if your priority date is after March 2002, it is definitely worthwhile to do the conversion. Chinese EB-3s with priority dates after Sept. 2003 should definitely convert too.
Even considering the time to find a job, file a new labor and I-140, it still looks like that you will get your GC faster than waiting in a not-moving line. The recent history has shown that the visa bulletin can get stuck for a specfic cutoff date for half a year. Besides, EB3s have been and will always be of a lower priority just as someone said in other posts.

It is amusing to see that there are quite a few people who want the very door closed that they used to enter. It is even more amusing to see that the fault is always someone elses. It is similar to all the people who are opposed to immigration because it is someone elses fault that they are losing their job. Down right funny :p.
We need to focus on solving our problems without blaming others for our problems. Because once we go down that lane, we are no better than anyone from NumbersUSA or any other organization/ people who are against immigration. It is OK if we do not support increasing H1B - but saying that the H1B program needs to shutdown is not correct. I am sure that one can reason in the same breath that the EB3 category needs to be eliminated so that retrogression can truely be eliminated :eek:
I am proposing that it is better to completely eleminate EB3 than
having some kind of false promise of GC.
I know lots of IT guys from India fall for the Green card promise form employers even now (they say I applied and I should get in 2 years or so..
what should I say to those people)
By the way I am not "really" asking for H1B to be shut down. I am saying H1B
in its current form should be shut down. Obviously when the time comes
to actually shut it down, Corp America will panic and fix the problems.
In US, if Corp America really wants they WILL get it done.
In a presidencial election, a canadiate needs close to 100 million.
A senator needs around 2 million for an election.
Congressmen need lesser money and thats why they are more listening to local population (and oppose any H1B /EB etc) and can afford to oppose Corp America.
End 2006 when GOP Congress was trying to pass a rule
making illegal a felony and also a fine 50000$ per illigeal worker employer
employed it was the american chamber of commerce that took out the
big guns and ofcourse their surrogates/supporters orgaised those
Marches in April 2006.
However if GOP were to truly pander to their base they would have passed
that ( anyway illegals dont vote much)

I am in a lot of stress. Please help out if possible.
Six years on my H1B expire in April 2008. I just got laid off from company A. My last day of work will be May 31st. I have LC and I-140 approved with company A.
If I join company B starting June, and transfer my H1B to B, can it extend my H1B beyond 6 years based on the approved I-140 I had with company A? If yes, will it be for one year or three years?
Gurus please help. I will be grateful.
Thanks
Don't worry..you still have time..start hunting for a job and you can transfer and extend your H1b for 3 years based on I-140 approval(beyond 6 years).

Problems will not go away. Such incidents may happen elsewhere or in the same place.
If Air France was genuine they should have made everyone stay in the same place or atleast talk to theie department of immigration and arrange a temporary supervised visa and take all people to the hotel.
They just did not care
Can't agree with you more. Screw them and never fly with them. Then they will realize what it means. I don't see any issues with on spot transit visas in such circumstances. What if there was a terrorist attack on airport? They will still ask for transit visas for Indians to get outside airport? Best is avoid Europe at all costs and fly direct. Avoid any city in between including middle eastern cities.
