Myself and Abhijit booked the flight in United from OAKLAND airport. As we are going to be in DC on Tuesday morning, this is the pretty decent flight with no-stop...We booked this thru www.kayak.com...
Mon, Sep 17, 2007 11:10 PM - OAK to IAD
Tue, Sep 18, 2007 6:52 PM - IAD to OAK
The price came ~$280
Guys what airline could one fly from San Jose? Which one have best connecting times so one can reach and leave at decent time? which airport is close?
Is there a Motel nearby at the relly start point, what time does the rally end, and what flight have people from CA booked for getting back?
:confused:

I tried CIS press room, but couldn't find it. And i'm sure that about couple of weeks back i saw that memo (which states if initial evidences are not present, they might reject/deny a case without RFE). It was posted on this board and now its very hard to search with few words.
I saw that too. But my question was what if we provide partial evidence. i.e., get vaccinations and x-ray but not skin test. Hope that they will give an rfe for skin test if skin test is mandatory

If your COS application was approved and you didnt have to go out of US for H1B stamping I would assume your are in status.
I dont know if this would come up in RFE or at interview stage, but I wont worry about it unless the period was more than 180 days.

"
E. EMPLOYMENT THIRD PREFERENCE VISA AVAILABILITY
Demand for numbers, primarily by Citizenship and Immigration Services Offices for adjustment of status cases, is expected to bring the Employment Third preference category very close to the annual numerical limit in June. As a result, this category is likely to experience retrogressions or visa unavailability beginning in July. Such action would only be temporary, however, and a complete recovery of the cut-off dates would occur for October, the first month of the new fiscal year.
"
How do you see above message in the June Visa Bulletin? This means it is illegal to use all of them with in 3 quarters????
I don't wish to sound like Bill Clinton, but it depends on how you define "is." In this case, if they are using "annual limit" to mean the entire annual quota, then they are admitting that they have broken the law and issued too many visas in the first three quarters. Worse, they offer no explanation for having broken the law.[/COLOR]
Well, they could be talking about a subset of the annual quota, such as the quarterly quota. From the context, I don't think that is the case, but I'm also not used to seeing the State Department flat out admit illegality, either.
Well, if they do broke the law, can we do something about it? Like class action law suite???
Let's see if they did, first.

Any means of sending this would be helpful. Lets make it as easy as possible for people. For now - lets see if we can get over a 1000 people to do this.
Ideally in addition to posting your letter on www.WhiteHouse.gov/Contact, it would help if you send a letter to your Senators office as well.
Instead of sending emails, wouldn't it be better to send USPS mail or faxes?
I have sent electronic forms to state senators & whitehouse.gov.

In which case it could be a good thing, so unapproved I-140's, if deemed approvable will be approved on filing of AC21 portability. There are a few who have not filed for portability but moved on EAD, what is their case now? This things only gets from bad to worse. Anyone with inside info pls chime in.
well this memo is taking it one step further than the last memo -
it is saying that the I-140 must be approved before determining portability. which means most likely if you file for portability and your 140 has not been approved then USCIS will be forced to look at your 140 petition and approve it.

I dont see any light at the tunnel. PDs will not move until they allow 485 filing even PD is not current.
Please send the letter to WH if not already. As lasantha said, filing for I-485 when PD is not current is something IV is taking up with the administration. But, we need to get more letters to support our argument that this systemic dysfunction at USCIS is widespread and is affecting tens of thousands of people and not just a mere 1200 (that is the letters total so far and 10% of that comes from needhelp's efforts:))

Dear tselva,
why 22May06 for India EB2, i think your PD is before that. can you please add two more months, that covers mine too.
MC
Why not 3 more years either :)
Another point I think is that even if IV had a couple of million dollars I don't think it will be able to pursuade the Congress to pass any legislation to bring relief to legal immigrants considering the mood of the people in the Congress . No one would like to hurt their political career with voting for us in the Congress. The politicians do only lip service whether for illegal or legal immigrant bills. They have zero interest in seeing them passed in the Congress.
Well thought I had to answer this better. The answer is YES, we can get bills introduced and passed if we had 2 million dollars. Lets not make assumptions about what congress cares for, we'll let core members handle that. As written previously, we have managed to get quite a lot of change done with minuscule funding, even though we haven't been able to afford the best people.
Maybe right now even achieved a bit more than the illegal immigration lobby.
How exactly do we do it? - Check Donor forum, where we get constant updates on our efforts in Washington DC.
Donations start at a one time of $25, even if that's the only thing you do all year.
There are some thinking why not get everything for free, when IV is already working? Its a tendency of many to save as much as possible, and get the thrill of getting something free. As I speak, Donors are benefiting from IVs efforts. United we can achieve a lot, Divided we fail.
The other common excuse is - "I really don't care, even if I don't get the GC, I can always find a job back home. Pay $1000 for my return flight. Just visiting... "
Well I guess the other option of spending much less, getting a GC in 1-2 years, starting your own business in the USA, making much more money is really something no one wants.

Thanks Harsh..
you think it is safer to submit the last 2/3 paystubs while on H1 earlier along with the other documents we submit while filing for H1, or not even submit them.. I know the officer is at full liberty to ask whatever document he fancies at that moment and my stars at that time..
Do you think they will ask for the W2's while on H1 period..?
others too, pls share your thoughts.

Gurus,
Since EB2-India is current, I am exploring the possibility of interfiling.
Goal: Interfile in such a way that my new application under EB2 (New case
category) get attached with old case (EB3) priority date (07/2003) and
thus enable me to take advantage of EB2 current PD as declared in
April 2008 bulletin.
GC Application/s history:
-----------------------
OLD APPLICATION
Employer: xyz
Category: EB3-RIR Conversion-India
Priority Date: 07/2003
Labor approved
I-140 approved
I-140 approval date: 06/2007
AP and EAD approved
485 receipt date: 07/1*/2007
NEW APPLICATION
Employer: ZAB
Category: EB2-India
Priority Date: 06/2006
PERM LABOR approved
I-140 approved
I-140 approval date:08/2006
No AP/EAD/485 applied under this application
Notes: (1) Currently working for company CDE on EAD.
(2) "A" number on both I-140 are similar and different from "A" number
on 485 file.
(3) Occupation codes for both category are "Close" and matches the
job profile with current employment on EAD
Question: Is my goal achievable? If yes, then what to do and how to
proceed?
Thanks in advance for any help to sort this out.

1.Apply for new H1 petition(premium processing) for you before July 31.
2.On approval send the H1 papers to your wife so that she can get H4.
3. On her entry to USA apply for her I-485.
Then you can live happily together in america.
P.S: Even when you have used AC21, in hindsight you should have got H1B instead of using EAD.
