Hi,
We have raised $ 8,300 as of last night(Jan 8th) and we need much more than that. You can check status of funds raised at "Why Contribute" link on www.immigrationvoice.org
Here is the thing: You can contribute now if you have not and stop waiting until "others take care of the problem". That "others" is made up of people like you. If you cannot contribute a few dollars to help eliminate retrogression by funding a non-profit org that is going to lobbying in the next few weeks, then probably you are not bothered enough and retrogression is fine by you. If that is the case, then maybe I am talking to the wrong audience. If you are prepared to wait for 6-7 years for your green-card and keep extending your H1 until then and waiting for 6-7 years is fine by you, then good for you. You dont have to worry about anything and I can understand if you wish not to do anything about it.
But if you care, then volunteer or atleast contribute money towards efforts to eliminate retrogression and eliminate backlogs. What is the worst that could happen? Think about it. What if everyone thinks that "there are other people who are working on this and they will take care of the problem so I will just wait and watch, maybe contribute later on when they actually start doing something. Even if I dont contribute, they will take care of the problem and the changes in laws will benefit everyone anyways whether I participate or not". Well, that is the kind of thinking that leads to catastrophes. Do not rely on "Others". Because "others" might think that you are doing it and you might think others are doing it. That never ends and once we cross into second half of 2006, you can forget about congress acting on immigration just before elections in 2006. YOU have to do something about this. If you dont stand up for what you believe in, then you dont believe strongly enough. There is justice in the world, but its not automatic.
If you have doubts and would like to talk to one of the volunteers then please call us at 281-576-7185.
Talk to one of the volunteers. See if you can relate to the efforts of Immigration voice. A phone call and a few minutes of time is the least that you can do to act on a problem that can be a constant nightmare for the next 6-7 years if you want your GC within a more reasonable timeframe.
You can also check out www.immigrationvoice.org before you call so that you can find out more about us and ask us all the questions that you might have.
Thanks,
Logiclife.

How about, they are expecting so many application 140 plus 485...that THEY DO NOT WANT TO PROCESS ANY APPLICATION...like always - THEY WILL SIT and EAT BURGERS and dont WANT TO DO ANY WORK...nothing new here folks...
I understand your frustration, but easy there Jonty. To blindly accuse of someone of not doing their work is not good. Again I understand the frustration but we need to go easy on the criticisim.

A simple calc to find out how much EB3-EB2 porting going on as of today:
If you look at Demand data released last month by DOS, It lists
Prior to January 1, 2007 , EB2- I pending : 13,200
In my opinion Demand data includes EB3- EB2 porting as well since Demand data reflects overall demand for one category.
Now if you look at inventory data released on Jan 5 ,2011 ,
EB2 India Pending Prior to Jan1st 2007 : 13,516
But if you exclude all the data prior to May = 13,516 - 1,110 - 103 - 133 - 74-108 = ~ 12K
EB2 I demand from the inventory btwn May - Dec 06 = 12K
But Demand data says EB2-I demand is 13,200
Diff : 13,200 - 12K = 1200 ( This number has to be porting)
We know EB2 - I dates have not moved since Oct ,2010 .
So India regular quota for the last six months : 2800/2 = 1400 .
Since dates have not moved, I am assuming 1400 should also be considered towards porting.
so my conclusion is so far 1200 + 1400 = 2600 porting already took place. (though only 1400 really got GC)
EB3 Porting could use up to 8K though, and new filing could be 2K
and EB2 I/C pre-07/2007 still have about 34K at the beginning of oct/2010
So it is even at most...
There are lots of uncertain
1. EB1 is now the biggest uncertainty
2. EB2 ROW
3. Porting
But EB1 and Eb2 ROW, EB2 I/c new fling (ppl who missed 07/2007 w/ PD before 07/2007) have to file in May to get it approved by Sept as processing time is 4 month.
So After May, from June to August, it is all spill over game for EB2 I/C
That is why i guess Charles is saying the trend is now, and will start use the numbers in May

Here is the news that is very important but often overlooked in the immigration spectrum:
"Senate OKs Patriot Act renewal sends to House"
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11638713/
Why this is the news is good and relevant from the point of view EB provisions?
Because EB provisions (section 8001) were thrown out of S.1932 because of the differences between key players over the Patriot act. Now that this is out of the picture, at least there is one less thing to worry about.

I knew friends in Kaiser who were hired on H1 and got GC through Kaiser..
How the hell can they justify filing new GCs, but not accepting EAD!?
Kaiser stopped hiring on H1 since 2003. They used to hire on EADs until last week.

Well suppose they reject your 485 for lack of Initial Evidence then you are in some trouble. The people who applied prior to new Memo was passed had there applications receipted even without EVL. What will happen after the Memo is passed ...can't say. I think EVL is considered Initial Evidence. Thats my guess.
Not this time. USCIS clearly mentioned that Completed application with Signatures, Correct Fees should be sufficient. They are even accepting without medicals.

By sending so many flowers over and over again you are only going to piss off people and expedite retrogression :D:D. Live the real life instead of reel.
lets ignore all the negative comments in this thread and stay focused.
Lets start with letter campaign and see what happens when new year starts. Does somebody has a letter drafted and ready to send out?
Thanks.

Been here since 1998. Filed labor in 01 but was revoked due to tech downturn. Filed again in 05. Fortunately my GC was approved last Aug.
I think the final goal for most folks is citizenship.. including some of those who dont want to stay here permanently. Waiting 15 - 20 years for citizenship makes no sense.. if they are thinking of giving it to illegals in 10 years, whats wrong in asking?
Good. Welcome to the good school of thoughts..

Not an issue. It can be done using business necessity letter. Companies like Google should not have a issue as they regulary higher such qualified people. On the other hand , the non genuine case will have difficulty as from now onwards these positions will be scrutnized more closely. Moreover, any indication of fraud may result in the the audit of original labor also.
Not only consulting companies but genuine companies in the software arena will also face trouble. If I interpret it correctly, most new hires at places like Google, MSFT, Amazon etc. even if having MS from top-notch universities in the US can apply only under EB-3 as their job description will fall in Job Zone 4.
On the other hand somebody having a non-IT or CS degree from a mom&pop University can find a job, state its "research" and upgrade to Job Zone 5 and apply under EB-2.
I wonder how this will fly with the affected companies?

Right but the here problem is that how to come up with written evidence of discrimination? These jerks do not send you an email "Hey, we do not consider EAD". Their pattern is generally as under.
I understand. For an analogy consider theft. You might not know who did it but you lodge a complaint with the police. Its their job to investigate. Sometimes they are successful, sometimes they are not.
In this case if the govt gets lot of complaints, and find a pattern they will investigate and find the dirt.
All I and a few others are saying, discriminating EADs is illegal, and there is a govt. agency to deal with these things. So, if anybody is a victim contact the govt. agency. By being quite we are not helping ourselves.

My EAD expires today, I applied for the renewal on April 6th. This is my 4th EAD and I totally missed to apply in time this time.
1)Is there any way to speed up the process to get the EAD soon?
2) I cannot work from next week is there any way I can get through this ?
Thanks

Tough problem indeed. Especially now that they are not entirely following their rule to give you a 90 day response. Instead they now suggest you apply 6 months ahead! For a document valid less than a year and for which the filing price is expected to double soon. They are basically asking you to apply every 6 months or so. I wonder why they do not charge 4 times and give it for 2 yrs, atleast we can avoid the stress.
Anyway, one consolation is that my lawyer says they have been approving it with an effective date the day after your last expiry, but thats not a guarantee. The situation sucks. I applied 95 days ahead(my 3rd EAD application by the way) and am still a little antsy with a month to go. Of course you remain in status due to pending 485 but whether to go to work is a different matter. I personally am planning to take a few days off at that time should it come to that.
Let me know how yours goes.

How is your experience with Lingo customer service. Last year, I tried to switch to Lingo and the lady at customer service is very rude. She is so tired to answer questions and asked me to get all from website. I stopped switching to them.
This is true. Lingo customer service is bad. Now I am stuck with them for 2 years. Rep was rude. Talked to the supervisor. Even he was rude. Asked him to pass me on to his manager. He refused to directly transfer to his manager.
I am even thinking of paying $100 cancellation fee and get off their service.
I am happy that Vonage came up with a good plan.

USCIS has decided that the flowers sent by skilled, legal immigrants to director Dr. Emilio Gonzalez will be forwarded to injured service members recuperating at Walter Reed Army Medical Center and at Bethesda Naval Hospital.
We welcome the fact that Dr. Gonzalez acknowledged the symbolic gesture of our protest. We are even more happy that these flowers will brighten the day of our injured service brethren. It is their contribution to the American freedom that has made this country such a desirable destination for highly skilled professionals from all over the world.
We also want to convey to the service personnel receiving those flowers that our message accompanying those flowers is, "Thank You and God Bless You".

Excellent! :)
