let me take a guess - at the minimum - 2 years for your PD and 4-5 years for my PD.
For you and me isnt it < 1year?
485 Inventory (http://www.uscis.gov/USCIS/Green%20Card/Green%20Card%20Through%20a%20Job/Employment%20Based%20I-485%20Pending%20Inventory%20as%20of%20May%2027%202 010.pdf)
going by using unused visa from worldwide allocation within the category ie eb3 for 2011 year, 42.6k visas will help clearing off 9356 peinding cases till Jan 2003?
Am I missing anything?
Why eb2 were processed with 7K cases worldwide and only 700 for eb3 worldwide?
If 42600 / 4 = 10650 cases can be processed per quarter in eb3 , why only 700 were processed?

Hi all,
Just wanted to rop by and say I received my welcome email today.
Been here since 2001, but my company wouldn't let me file labor until December 2004.
Good luck all, and keep the faith.

Done calling the congressmen's offices. Left messages for the remaining members of the CHC. Let's keep calling and hope that some thing good comes from the collective effort.
To all IV members, please keep the phonelines going. Our strength lies in the numbers and the momentum generated by the phone call initiative.
Thanks for calling.

I recently received my GC and if I need to contribute and bring ppl who will contribute. let me know. We need to look at the long term picture. I waited 10 years to get GC, and now another 5 all this time pay taxes doesnt seem fair.
give me concrete agenda. I am not for amnesty and those illegals are holding our agenda hostage. We need to only focus on piece meal legislation for legal immigrants.

Subject: Follow-up to Update on July Visa Availability
Further to the email earlier today about July visa availability:
Several members have asked whether they should continue in their efforts to
file adjustment of status applications for employment-based cases. Of course
, this is a matter for each attorney's best judgment, but note that:
-It is not certain what day the revised Bulletin will be issued.
-It is possible that the revised bulletin will not issue at all--efforts to
stop this unprecedented action are being pursued.
-If you "front desk" the application, i.e. decide it is futile to file, and
a remedy opens up later, having submitted the applications may improve the
chances of utlizing whatever fix might be available.
-If you do submit the adjustments, be sure to use a method whereby you can
document delivery, and keep that documentation for each client.
-AILF's Legal Action Center is seeking plaintiffs with respect to both the
adjustment applications that were or are expected to be rejected for June
and the adjustment applications that are expected to be rejected in July. Go
to InfoNet Document # 07062975: http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=22798 on InfoNet for the Potential Plaintiff Questionnaire and related FAQ.
We cannot predict now what will happen, but will continue to update the
membership as developments occur.

Total people that have signed up till now is : 154
We have a lot of ground to cover and only 154 members have shown commitment.
The whole retrogression is very depressing if you were to look at numbers and predictions based on the numbers. This is the reason we need to work harder and contribute our time and money for this effort. If we cannot do it this year, then we can easily forget getting a greencard for the next 2 years and more. There will be no immigration bill next year due to presidential election.
This is all the more reason for us to go all out and get the immigration bill passed this year itself. We need all members to help in this effort. We have a strong membership of around 8500 members we can count on for support. However it is sad that only 154 members have thus far contributed in the past 1 week despite all the effort to raise funds. IV is prepared to go all out and get the work done, the question is ARE YOU?

I live in Los Angeles and sent my paper-based application to Nebraska. it reached on May 01 but no reciept or check cashed yet.
I know After reading this forum that I should have mailed to Phoenix lockbox instead on Nebraska service center.
Anyone in the same boat?. Do i need to file again or wait for USCIS to forward it to Phoenix lockbox.

Agreed, It is very unfortunate for people stuck in backlogs and I feel your pain... But would you rather have seen USCIS waste over 40000 visas by the end of the year without any PD movement (as reported by some on this forum)? We would have had another thread here blasting the inefficiency and unfairness of USCIS.
Bottomline, I would not like to work in USCIS right now.. They are basically damned if they do, damned if they dont. That said, I do hope that BECs get their act together like USCIS is trying to and get everyones labor cleared by the deadline before the next retrogression hits.
I mean even if some of guys had their PD current, USCIS did not approve the I-485. They said that all the I-485's are preadjudicated but did we see flood of approvals....? NO... To say that 40000 visas will be wasted is wrong. I bet there are 40000 Employment based 485's pending at USCIS right now with PD's before 2005. So why not make PD 2005? This is just a stunt by USCIS to get as many I-485 applications and get money from EAD and AP for 4-5 years... Thats my thought...! Any buyers!!!

Hi Folks,
My PD is current but my lawyer is saying that I CANNOT file I-485.
Reason:
My labor cert / EB2 was originated in Illinois and then amended for Virginia by G-28.
Since my labor cert approval, i moved to Califonia - same job, same company.
Now my lawyer is saying that I need to go back to Virginia so i can apply for I-485.
Question:
1. Do i have to go back to the same state/location at I-485 filing stage where my Labor was originally approved?
2. Doesnot Green Card is for a future job?
3. Can i file I-485 while I am in California and my labor was approved for VA?
Please advise - thanks
I have asked Rajiv Khanna the same question when I moved to new location after GC was filed in Phoenix, AZ.
I moved to Reno, NV and the opinion of Rajiv Khanna was :
You can work in Reno and file your 140 and 485 also while working in Reno. If it takes longer than 180 days to process your 485 (which most likely will be the case) then you can invoke your AC21 portability options and continue working in Reno upto the end of 485 processing and even after that.
If it takes less than 180 days for USCIS to process my 485 file, then the AC21 portability option is not available to me and as soon as 485 is approved, I have to move back to the original location (Phoenix) in my case where my GC was filed.
Most likely, in my case and in your case, 485 is going to take a lot longer than 180 to process and the AC21 portability option will be available so we would never have to go back to original location to work from there the GC was filed.
In this case, you should almost wish that your 485 takes longer than 180 days (may be 190 days ideally) so that you dont have to go back.
Your lawyer seems to be not very experienced and you should get a second opinion.
Also sent you a PM.

I refuse to get caughtup in the consumerism. Why a family of 3 or 4 needs 2000 sqft of living area? The quality of living is not the top most priority for me. What I need is more important. When I am happy with a small car, why should I go buy a SUV?
Instead of paying 2000$ a month for mortgage for a big house which would consume most of my time as well, I can pay 1200$ month in rent , use the money to have some flexibility in what I want to do and use the extra time to read a book.
One thing I noticed is people will just keep running in circles regardless of how much they make . They have expenses in proportion to their incomes and they are in a way slaves of their lifestyles.
Slumdog has an illusion that "Quality of life" comes if you buy and live in a big house.
Peace of mind is biggest part of having a good quality of life.
You can RENT a place and have excellent quality of life.
