Congress is enacting law. White House is just approving the bill into law. Any way White House is positive in our issue. What we need today is to have attention of congress. Member of Congress are scared with citizens and media. We need at Capitol, if we have to.
I believe, this will create big impact on media and members of congress.
Can we organize a hunger strike in front of CAPITOL HILL ,just for one day ?
IV can co-ordinate the event. It will give BIG media attention in DC. It will open the eyes of American people !

Hi.
My friend's wife is in a tricky situation. She has an approved EAD through her husband's I-485 petition.
She was working with company A on her own H-1 and decided to quit employer A and join new company B on EAD. At the very last minute company B has rescinded her job offer. She now cannot return to former employer A as well.
Is she in any status violation if she justs sits at home with an EAD but no job for a few weeks ?
Can anyone share their views ?
Thank You.

Please and i'm begging you that please read the entire post and think for a moment before replying. I'm not in BEC, already filed my 485. I'm aware of the IV efforts towards getting relief for BEC people, I never disputed that. My point has been that the system and July bulletin is unfair (at least from one angle) and that calling it unfair/unjust should not upset others. I don't know what words were used by Bigtime and banning him was fair or unfair.
You want everyone else to suffer just because you suffered? or because older pd's suffered? life is not fair so get over with it... the sheer fact that you are in this country is a god's gift to you! So dont be judgmental about things...
btw my pd is feb 2003 and i'm very happy for everyone who will get the opportunity to get in the door!

A total of 2.5M cases pending (AOS and naturalization), only 1.2M are ready for action.
For true backlog numbers look here, Ombudsman report, Page 14.
http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/2007,0619-ombudsman.pdf
1.3M backlogged cases TOTAL (includes naturalization), out of which more than 800K are retrogresed family-based AOS petitions, and what looks like 30K EB petitions (cannot be approved due to statutory limits). 300K cases in namecheck, maybe 10% of them are EB (EB is about 13% of green cards), so we are having about 60K truly backloged EB cases in March 2007.
We know that cases that are current and not stuck in FBI checks are being approved farily fast, so my gut feeling is they have maybe 50-80K EB cases in active adjudication. Let's double-check -- out of 1.2 million cases ready for action, about a half is naturalization, and from the other half, ~13% would be EB - yep, 80K (EBs are the easiest to approve because there are no interviews or tests, so the percentage is likely less than 13%).
So, in March 2007 there were a total of no more than 140K pending cases in I-485 stage of stocessing. Now in June-August EVERYONE who had an approved LC got to apply, and there were ~300K applications, while CIS gave out ~70K green cards, so we would have a total of 370K pending petitions. This estimate is surprisingly close to 13% of the total 2.5M backlog, so I would consider it good.
Again, I absolutely do not believe there are more than 500K EB1-EB3 cases. There may be another 500K in the 'other worker' category, but this is not what we are talking about here.
We can argue who is right on the numbers for a long time, The Ombudsman, who quote that they can not say for sure what the numbers are, or the kauffman Report who claim 1.1 million. Even if we go with your number of "no more than 500K" - thats a 3 year wait if there are no more country caps.
Also from the Ombudsman:-
"In FY 06, over 10,000 employment-based visas were lost, even though USCIS had an estimated 100,000 to 150,000 pending applications for employment-based green cards." - Pending applications for employment-based green cards means "application approved pending visa number availability" - ie all but approved - waiting for a visa number, not all 485 applications.
"As of May 2007, USCIS reported a staggering 329,160 FBI name check cases pending"
I'm obviously not adding those numbers together, but I really believe that the numbers are larger than we think.
Remember to take out the visa's unsued each year (per the ombudsman, in the last 3 years, thats only 100k wasted) that brings down the number of visas available, and remember there are other visa paths into greencard application, not just H1B.
They also think there are roughly about 170K at BEC... that haven't hit yet. Add that to the number - all with old PD so you better believe their dates will come current sooner.
If you've read the Ombudsman's report, you should have figured out that things are NOT moving quickly
I've just realized, are you looking at just 485 numbers and not everyone in the EB GC queue?
Finally - if you've read the Ombudsman report from the past few years, they will look very similar to this years' one (although they gradually get more and more bleak). Nothing has change to make the situation better, so the expectation that all of a sudden things will get fast now still baffles me.

Uh-oh! Sorry to hear that. But please keep the hope - it may not be all over yet.
Aren't they required to issue an NOID (Notice of Intent to Deny)...check this out under
2. USCIS on Issuing RFEs, H1B Revocation, eFiling, and Other Matters -
http://murthy.com/bulletin.html
Only god knows what processes, rules and regulations they follow. I am glad that i am maintaining H1B status with my I-485 and never used EAD.
Its just so disturbing that you are at the mercy of USCIS who didn't know anything about how to look and process the application.

Guys, instead of fasting, protesting or marching, join state chapters and form big groups and then meet lawmakers. Request them for recapturing wasted visa numbers and removal of per country quota. this will solve most of our problems.

kaka,
You have so far been saying "nobody will get GC... it is a scam..."
Now that there is a chance someone will get GC with a new House, do you still go with your "win-win" stand?
Will you change your course too and say something new?
Kaka no offense meant here....just a joke.
In words of the President " He will stay the course"
Cheers

I agree with you, not fair for someone to wait for so long.
But practically speaking, since most of the BEC cases are now aprooved, and since those folks have a much earlier PD, most of them have a short wait ahead of them for GC. I doubt at this late stage in the game anybody would want to go through an ordeal of a long lasting lawsuit. You might not get a lot of support.
I understand that it might be late and filing a case might be expensive etc. But how come people like murthy.com etc. were willing to fight the sudden revoking of I-485 by UCIS along with AILF? It will only be hypocritical to consider that as injustice and this as not. I don't think filing a case is going to bring the whole process to a halt. The BEC will still continue to process the cases while this case goes on.
We have to do away with all those naysayers and all those IFs and BUTs. I don't belive in it.
We know we have a justified case here and it is a simple matter of whether we are willing to fight.
Why can't we get the support of AILF for this or other law firms? I know there are enough people who have been affected to justify that.

My I-140 was filed on July 6 and arrives at USCIS on July 9.
The check was cashed on July 12 and I was able to get the receipt number. BUT BY NOW I HAVE NOT RECEIVE THE RECEIPT. It seems many people are in the same boat. What we can do about it?
Anybody knows how many days it would take between they cash the check and mail out the receipt? What address do they use?
Did u get the receipt number on the back of the cheque or did u call USCIS and get it ???

Thanks for sharing your experience of on line filling for Advance Parole.
I thought I should mention that I got my AP papers on May 22, 2009 that is just under one month after my application (4/24) and sending them a letter with following documents �
1. Bio metric page of Passport, (I guess photo copy of drivers license is also acceptable)
2. I 797 action notice for your 485 application to prove your 485 is pending
3. Two passport size photos
4. Confirmation receipt received after e-filling for AP.
Hi,
couple of confusing questions regarding AP (I-131) renewal using E-File. As I am using E-File first time, I would appreciate help very much.
1. Do we need to Send the pictures along with the application first time itself or need to wait to hear from USCIS for the pictures?
2. Reading this thread, I came out with a list of things that I need to send with my e-file application. Please correct me if I missed something or if I am sending too much.....
a) (Color photocopy of) Biomatric pages of Passport
b) Photocopy of I-485 (I-797)
c) Completed application printout
d) 2 PP ??????
e) Photocopy of old AP ????
Thanks in Advance.....

Hey guys
Just received email from CRIS regarding I-485 denial notice for both me and my wife.
I used AC21 after 9 months of filing I-485. My I-140 was approved before even filing I-485 in July fiasco.
My attorney promptly sent AC-21 and G-28 and i did see LUD on my and my wife's I-485 after that.
My previous company informed me sometime ago that they are going to revoke I-140 and probably they did and i am assuming that's what triggered this.
This is certainly a big damm mistake they did even after sending AC-21 docs and G-28.
I think they misplaced AC-21 application and also they missed NOID step. This is basically two mishaps. Looks like every thing is messed up.
Motion-to-reopen is right step as after denial, beacse case is deemed to be closed after AOS denial.
I am not sure, how much info-pass can help.
Good luck.

I agree.. Let us focus on the main agenda "APPLYING FOR AOS WHEN PD NOT CURRENT"
I read through your reply, however, I found it extremely hard for me to accept your points. You've been probably on EAD too long to remember what a dire condition you came from as an H1B worker. Let's look at it:
As an AOS, you can:
- Work for any employer
- Not work at all
- Travel out of the country without worrying visa delay
- When you got laid off, no need to worry about being out of status or restarting GC
As an H1B worker:
- If you are laid off, everything, years of wait, thousands of dollars, down the drain, and the whole family becomes out of status immediately. And in this dire economy, this is a sword hanging on the head of every H1B worker.
- Worry about re-entry visa each time you travel
With such a huge different, I can hardly convience myself that EAD is 'useless' or 'waste'. True, you'll need to work for same or similar job, but compared to the benefit, it is not nearly as big a problem faced by H1B workers day by day.

Since it is orginating from house. Also It may not be passed as it is. Subject to Amendments. For example there will not be oppostion to increase of h1 to 115k. But market based adjustment will have some opposition. In fact I heard one of calfornia Senator is opposing flexiblity of the Cap though she is accepting that h1 cap should be increased. Some debate also will be there in both houses and Senate has to vote again. Also EB category will have permanent increase in immigration, a few weeks of debate will be there. But we have to see how much oppostion will be there for EB immigration increase though there will not be much oppostion to H1b. Last year anti immigrants worked in backdoor and successfully delayed the the bill so that it can be killed. But this time also they will try to delay it because they cannot oppose the bill directly. Anyhow it may happen before this year end. Immigration is emotional topic for Americans as they fear their jobs are in risk though it may be or may not be true..
