After nearly 15 months, going by recent postings here , I was tempted to call IO to get any update on my 'pending I-485' . I happened to talk to a nice IO on my first attempt. She took some time to check on status and told me my 'name check is pending'. I told her on previous occasions / Infopass I was all the time told 'everything for me, especially name check is cleared'. She came out with an explanation---- your 2nd FP was cleared on 17 July 09 (Yes, I had 2nd FP on 7/6/09 as Ist FP in Sept 07 'expired' after 15 Mo validity) and that is why new 'name check' is initiated.
I can not believe this. If this is so, they may have to wait for 180 days even if there is nothing adverse from fbi and the dates become current.
It is very creepy.....
Please, share your thoughts if uscis require NC again and again for this never ending GC process ..
What is the frequency at which FP is done. I filed in Aug 2007 and got FP done in OCT 2007. I have not received any more FP notice. Should i be getting a new FP notice?

EB migration was a added almost as an after thought to the family based immigration bill. Current or future considerations were not taken into account when they wrote the bill, the prime focus was (is and will be) the family based immigration as they get the most votes, they have the most 'heartbreaking' stories. I understand your point. I also dont want to argue about how USCIS distributes overflow. I have been dealt a hand i am dealing with it.
I do want to say that nothing will happen unless you make efforts to make it happen. We need to talk to the lawmakers about our problems. Half of them still think we are talking about H1 and launch into a spin about outsourcing. The H1 lobby has major companies backing them, anti immigration groups are flush with cash and are very vocal. Hispanic caucus is a big group. What about us, do we just keep discussing issues or try to educate people on our problems...if we dont we will stay a minority with no voice, simply pawns used and abused by others.
As I see, most of you are missing the point. Instead of trying to understand, you showing the maturity of mind. The whole purpose of EB immigration is to meet the Demand(Job opportunities) vs the supply(immediately available candidates).
When there are a lot of opportunities exists for EB3 level(skilled profession) and less opportunities exists for EB1(Ph.D/Executive Director), USCIS should give more no. of Visas to EB3, then EB1.
A country cannot be built with only the kings, and not even a home can be built with only Ph.Ds(Nobody do the dishes).

Lets learn from the chinese! dont you think they smell of fish and frogs, they cant speak proper english, they do not dress properly etc etc but they get their job done and are slow and steady. Part of the reason they are not easily insulted as we are is, they are very very humble people. They have learnt to respect others. Now look at we Indians. I am from South India. Do you think if I travel to the North I will be respected, let alone be considered a normal human being?? We tend to view everything that way. Go to any university and you will see a mumbai group, a chenai group, bihar group etc etc. First let us speak of how WE INDIANS treat other Indians. This is just like the Middle east right? When they have a common enemy they stand as one, otherwise they always fight among themselves. As somebody previously pointed out.
1) Respect yourself and others (americans). They are not used to your spicy smell, oil smell, untidiness etc. Instead of blaming them for not cooking, it would be better for us to take a few precautions: hand your dress/coats etc in a separate room with door and keep it always locked, preferably put a perfume paper or something on the floor in that room.
2) Learn to use chewing gum before group meetings.
3) Work to develop a cheerful attitude. Dont expect to be treated as a child is treated by a parent (always cared for type of thing). Smile and be happy.
4) Please dress decently and tell your friends to do so also. Many people dont know this basic requirement in the US.
5) Finally learn to smile at a fellow Indian, no matter which part of the country he/she is from.
One thing I have noticed is most of the time (not always though), its the people who dont do their work properly/sincerely, who end up with these kind of problems. And remember this will happen to any person whether its an Alien / American. As an alien we will naturally be attacked more if we are not GOOD enough. Isn't it assumed that H1B is to bring in the best of the rest of the world into this country?? So lets try to be that best and do our best.

No. Bernankes support wouldn't hurt. But statements like these, by you, may give the impression that IVs approach is ineffective which is not the case.
In America, people gets recognized when they offers a solution for a problem faced by the country. Whiners are (who write to Bush or Senators) do not get noticed nor are respected.
I stand corrected that we still need to send letters and faxes to Senators and Bush. But a little push from the Fed won't hurt IV's efforts, would they?

I know I am not going to get my GC righ away by attending rallies/meetings and activity's. But there should be an efforts from every one to raise their hand and contribute for the cause. Appreciate the core members and state chapter leaders for your vision and work.
At the same note,I regret for not being at DC after meeting some of the members yesterday.
Before, I have little/no idea of how to approach lawmakers (my idea of meeting lawmakers was like meeting politicians in INDIA, Zindhabad...Zindhabad type), glad i do now :rolleyes:!
Main concern/talk was about not many people turning up with 3000 IV members in the tristate, I strongly believe we can do much better in the number department for the next meeting. Again, not just numbers but with some motivation to take part in the events to come.
I did not like the leaders thanking the members just because they turned up! It should always the other way around, members should thank the leaders for organizing such events. After all it is for ones own benefit, no one is doing a fa�vour to any one!
Come on folks, join ur state chapters.

I never understood this "exploitation thing". This is America...
Exploitation is employer(i.e consulting company) takes 30 - 40% cut from billing from people on H1 but is ready to work on 5-10% commision with people with EAD or GC . (this is no exaggeration talk to EAD/GC guys & you will find many)
If someone is exploiting we all have a choice. We can change employers; go back home, etc.
It may not be a totally open market but it is not like you have handcuffs around you. This type of talk of exploiting, slavery only hurts everyones cause.
Changing employer means start over GC process again unless you have 140. with 140 too many people are not very comfortable switching.

I was in the same situation recently for the State of Iowa. My attorney called up the DMV and explained the situation. The DMV informed him that they would need the receipt notice from the USCIS. The license will be issued for the lesser period of the time range (if any) mentioned in the Receipt Notice that the USCIS expects to take to decide the petition. Upon receipt of the approval, the person will need to go the DMV again with the I797A form and get a final license.
Fortunately, I did not get to jump through the hoops as I decided to spend some hard earned money and got my extension approved by premium processing. Anybody else who has done something similar please post.

This rule of having at least one parent Indian citizen is in existence since atleast 2006. Just search around. I also know this as one of my close friend's OCI application was his kid was rejected based on this rule more than a couple of years ago !
You are correct. The rules must have changed recently. I wonder what made them make that change, Now children of US citizens (who were once Indian citizens) have an advantage over children who has both parents as Indian citizens. Weird.. isn't it?

This was discussed before and I cannot find it now..but here is an extension of the degrees idea.
1. Get everyone involved in the GC process to make a copy of their degrees/ qualifications/ certifications/ patents/ papers/ publications/ etc
2. Format it into standard size (perhaps A4)
3. Get a stamp on each of those sheets that says 'TRASH' or something else - maybe 'REVERSE BRAIN DRAIN' or 'KEEP TALENT IN THE US' - we can work that out. - it has to be bold, in RED, if possible across the page.
4. Get each State Chapter to create a binder/ maybe more if we can get enough participation.
5. We can submit a copy of that to local congressman and senators. We can also put all states together and send that to the White House, perhaps.
This will take a lot of coordination from all state chapter...but it is doable.
Any thoughts???
Please don't shoot me down if you don't like it :) I just wanted to put my 2 cents in :p

I can not believe this. If this is so, they may have to wait for 180 days even if there is nothing adverse from fbi and the dates become current.
It is very creepy.....
Please, share your thoughts if uscis require NC again and again for this never ending GC process ..
I called them several times yesterday until I was able to get hold of a good rep. Most of these reps are rude and they dont even care to listen to what I was asking.
The "good" rep told me that my case has been pre-adjudicated in the month of April and everything is all set and that they are waiting for the visa number. He said I might be getting another FP if it takes too long, but other than that everything is set. He did provide me quite a bit of information about my case, he told me that my name check and also background verification is also complete. He was even able to tell me how many EADs and APs have been issued to me against my 485. Hope this helps.

I wish we can all send multiple emails to every newspaper, every tv station and radio station in this country and apprise them of our cause. such letters urging news orgs to cover our issue will help us get much needed media attention and then something will DEFNITELY happen in the coming months.

you will come acros these Jerks ..barely educated with BA music or Art degress or just some schooling and sitting as managers..what else can they do..abuse other people...prey on the weak..weak because we are on Visa...
they dont get any certification or any skills but however they want all the benefits/promotion..etc.
In such situation...dont let the situatuion grow..you need to change your gruop/company and remind the manager that they need to stick to rules..be diplomatic.If you are diplomatic and sensible in dealing with such cases..you will come out a winner..
Dont forget to complain to the HR about this person ...as this is a recurring pattern...then they will have a record of the persons behaviour
Yes, please do this. When I did it, I was not diplomatic and I believed people, but if you have some diplomacy, you can work it out for your own good.
As per my first post - the person though is an Indian, she is a US citizen. You all can now understand what kind of backlash is driving the politicians.
FArom all this we must understand that Grassroot advocacy is not going to be an easy task and there is a long way to go. More people, more funding, more support, more reach, more skills.

Thy also charge me 3k for my H1-B which i am still paying everymonth from my paycheck and we have 70/30. In just six months i am so much fed up with them. These people are so rude...always show their arrogance over phone. I have no libarity to find job by myself. They always looking for higher pay rate sp that their big money tummy get filled up.and i also feel that they didnt told me the right pay rate for the project i am working on right now.
I really want to leave them, Even before 12 months. Is there any importance of that contract letter i signed with them?. Can they Sue me? What are my options? Please suggest me.....i am in stress.
Thnx
