pappu,
Is there any thing we can do to save IV forums, from all these so called smart people.
Simly these guys want to derail the whole discussion either it is EB3 push or visa capture or any kind of fruitful discussion.
I know it is difficult to stop creating and screening ids, atleast can you delete some unrelated postings and make sure that there is some healthy discussion continues and people like me wont stop visiting IV.
Bookmark and Share
May be you are new to IV.. Here's a regular thread looks like at IV
OP posts a new idea or a genuine question
At the end of page 1 'Who gave me red dots?' starts.
Starting of page 2, couple of 'Here I am giving you greens' starts
Page 3 - Then Donor Vs Freeloader starts
Page 4 - 'Holier than thou' discussions ensue
Page 5 - Same fight continues
Page 6 - Fake ids and 'Are you truly MS/MBA?' replies, accusations.
Page 7 - 'My toilet is broke, IV Core please fix it. What is core IV doing?' starts
By then end of page 7, another guy posts 'Vonage free calls to India/Remit2India better than XYZ' on main page & all the attention goes over there.
Repeat loop infinite times.

Hi ,
My I140 approved with priority date in November 2007. My wife works for American Vendor and her 6th year on H1B would be over by October 2012. Her company is not willing to initiate GC process. Right now her job is going smooth and could go for little longer. I wanted her to continue till mid of next year and then look for H1B transfer with immidiate GC process. Now the question, Is there any rule that we should start PERM 365 days before end of 6th year? Because I heard that we should file Labor in 5th year (365 days before). I am kind of confused... Please clarify this , I really appreciate it.
Regards.

I understand that. However, apart from canvassing the support for CIR by writing to senators, lawmakers, in what capacity can IV influence USCIS to take up EB-3 cause?
Even if IV has intentions to ameliorate our pain, is it truly capable to influence the agency to do something for only one specific category ? At a micro-level, we EB-3 need to do something about changing our situation ourselves, lest we stand in the filthy excreta for eons. :mad:
I truly believe, though IV's efforts can impact a little bit, they have to join other organizations to strengthen the efforts and results.

I arrived at the Situation Room at about 1 pm on Monday.. didn't know anybody and nobody knew me so I was searching for a Core IV type look on anybody's face... Poor 'beenwaiting' was eating her late lunch at what seemed like a registration table and she noticed my dillema.. she promptly put her lunch aside and briefed me on the agenda and my meetings.. Thanks 'beenwainting'...
Next I remember was helping Sanjeev (can u PM me your handle?) with his tie and hurrying with Shivkanth and Sumita (can you PM me your handle too?) to a Senator's meeting. That Senator's staff knew the issues pretty well and it was fun to watch Shivkanth debate with her.
SriKondoji - it was nice meeting you. The reception and the rally next day were a great experiences. Finally I had some great Indian food at the Union Station with Indio0617, Pappu and Dr. Gupta (can u PM me your handle?)
All PA (Philly) members - let's plan on meeting over coffee sometime in the next couple of weeks.
Here are the photos that I tool to 'live blog' the rally:

The experience of attending the rally was therapeutic in a way... Day in and day out one is sucked in to the bubble of daily life, work, kids, family..... and on top of it, the thought of interminable wait for GC really burns you from inside. You know you have to go through it and you know there are thousands like you who are stuck too. And then one fine day, these thousand faceless online handles come to life together and in the nation's capital and actually march and meet the lawmakers. This has truly been a great experience.

I did a year ago, gave my US address. They entered the US address in passport. So now you loose your indian address as a proof :)
Regarding H1-B, if your passport is stamped with Visa, I don't think notarized H1-B copy is required. Since the passport has a valid visa.

I plan on flying to BWI Airport and reaching there Saturday by 1:00p; Is that a good option?
If I want to have full participation - what would be a good schedule for my return flight? Will I be able to catch a 6:15p flight on April 5th?
Locals - please respond.
For a full participation, I would recommend a red-eye on Tuesday or at least a flight after 9pm est.

Finally the much awaited SMS/e-mail came through (from TSC). My guess is USCIS (TSC/NSC/etc) is approving cases at random as long as PD is current. There is no logic to Filing date / Notice date and all that. I came on F-1 10 years back (08/03/00) and was current for 2 months in 08 with no luck..... Please be patient... I know it is been frustating after a long wait and at times to see GC get approved for folks with later PD and all that after all we are humans and feel why someone was choosen today and not me ...... hang in there and I wish u all get that magic e-mail.....

EB retogression on July 2nd ?
Cynical view:
May be they hope to discourage other people from filing this
weekend?
Non-cynical view:
May be they everyone is nervous and gone insane?:D
Is it possible to organize such a huge collaborative effort?

PlainSpeak
01-12 05:53 PM
What is even more surprising is PlainSpeak is a member from 2006 and doesn't know anything about advocacy and lobbying. Probably because he/she has never been a donor.
Of course I've seen people who browse other so called immigration/chat forums and pick up wierd ideas and fantasies about lobbying and then post here. Its just mob mentality with un-practical ideas and they think if a mob says its right then maybe it has to be right. yes?
Then they claim that only they are right (the mob) and we are all wrong and don't know how to do things - strange indeed.
People can chat, argue all they want on forums, but about 99% of people on public forums know nothing about advocacy.
Yes i have been a member since 2006 and yes i dont know much about advocacy and lobbying, but what i do know is that advocacy and lobbying is possible only if you have an organization behind you and in this case EB3 does not believe that the organization named IV is behind them.
Not probabaly but 100 % confirmed that i have never been a donor. Now my questions is why do big companies in USA donate to any party. They do that because they believe that when that party come to power the goverment will be positive towards that specific business. Now what part of the example is not clear to you. EB3 do not donate to IV because they do not believe IV supports EB3 cause. Sure IV says that it is for all EB but the concerns of EB3 get trodden under the general good of EB Community (Read that as EB2)
Of course i browse other so called chats and forum because IV is not the sole representative of EB community and in case of EB3 it was never a representative. How swollen is your head with pompous self importance to think that you make the only difference to immigration community.
It is easy to dismiss what i say as Mob mentality because that another defence mechanism which you use unknowingly where you believe that you alone know what is best for EB community. That is kind of a delusion which you will come out of soon enough
Yes people can chat and argue all they want on forums because that is what a forum is and yes 99% of people on public forums know nothing about advocacy, but they know about their issues and they do know that whatever advocacy is being done it is not helping them.
Strange indeed !!

There are 300k Applicants(conservative number) stuck at various stages for immigration relief. All of us want a reasonably fair and a little faster adjudication but none of us want to contribute, raise our voice or be heard.
We are legal-tax paying, high earning, skilled immigrants (would be- permanent residents and future citizens.) who contribute trememdously to this economy, and we are employed by employers who did not find suitable citizens in their cities/counties. NOW!. If we do not organise and get heard! we are the ones to suffer. "squeaqy wheel gets the grease".
Shame on us, If we cannot talk to other people just like us who are stuck, how can we make ourselves heard to the majority at large. IF we are not bold enough to invite our friends to join IV, then maybe we ought to get stuck in this mess.
It is time to act, organise ourselves. Time to invite our friends to join IV and make them aware and encourage them to participate in the activities like writing to editors, raising awareness, joining state chapters and fund raising.
Lets add atleast one more friend.

@snathan: Have you checked with your lawyer if he sent an email to DOL. You may have been audited.
Whenever I call atorny...he says it will take time and be patient. Its not FIFO with USCIS...I have seen cases pending from Nov 2007. I really dont know how to push him to send a mail.

This is what I call "tailoring message to our own needs". Lets take your example and I will do the same for you.
USCIS certainly has a report by RD and lets say they are providing that report to the congress or the Senate. What would you see in the report ? There will be applications backlogged for years especially EB3 I. Just in my case, the 485 has been pending for more than 6 years. Anyone who wants to look in to the performance of an organization would want to know how well they are doing and USCIS has to show that they have applications backlogged for more than 6 years and cannot process them because of the unavailability of the visa numbers. Would that look good on them ?
All big companies use both EB2 and EB3. We cannot justify one over the other with-out understanding the data. Again as far my understanding goes, I believe Bill Gates is a big proponent of H1Bs than getting his employees permanent residency.
This is my take on spill over interpretation and please dont feel bad if you do not like it. Lets take it this way assume we have 40K extra visa # from EB1 and ROW categories that need to be spilled over to ICPM countries. Now you have two options
1) Spill it by PD. Which helps EB3 (I)
2) Spill it by category which helps EB2 (I) & EB2(C)
If you look at numbers EB3 I # are huge so inspite of pumping 40K into it the numbers barely inch forward. We have seen this all the way till 2007. Where as in just 2 years of spillover EB2 I has moved into 2005 with prediction of becoming current in 2-3 years.
Now if I was USCIS director and going to Senate hearing. What would I like to tell them that I have used all visa # and EB2 & EB3 are severly backlogged. Or should I say I used up all visa # and now EB1 & Eb2 are current and we have backlogs in only Eb3 category.
Just that I feel USCIS can claim more bang for buck when they spill in EB2. (just my theory not justyfying it). Also I feel Eb2 is used by large US corporations for its H1 employees especially STEM graduates working. Example Intel, Texas Instruments, Microsoft etc also large financial companies especially for employees on business side (not IT employees). There is pressure from these companies since they do not want to lose some one with business knowledge because of immigrations rules. Just look at how many times Bill Gates has shown up on Senate floor to pitch for EB immigration reform. If you make EB2 current you can shut him up since most Micro Soft employees are under Eb2 category. That way you are effectively muting the critisism againt you on senate floor.
This way USCIS can also keep these people happy since they can claim that EB2 which translates as Exceptional Ability and Advanced Degrees are now close to current. The only catch is consulting companies and outsourcing companies have sneaked large number of people into Eb2 and they have become lucky.
