I got my EAD card earlier this week. My validity is 6/19/2008 -6/18/2009....it is the same day as I recieved EAD "approved" notice via the CRIS email. My "July Fiasco" EAD expires 9/16/2008.....so yes I lose 3 months!!!!
So much for applying early :(
appply early and lose time
apply late and risk not being able to work
lose- lose for us
win-win for USCIS.
we really need to make the retrogression a relic of the past...

They filed my H1B and are about to start my green card. The H1B took forever. I wish my company allowed me to do the H1B myself. I can do a better job without a lawyer instead of paying Fragomen $5000 for rubbish.
Once, they kept sending out emails per my H1B application and copied my company using a wrong email address. This stalled my start date as my company never got these emails and I kept calling them. I thought my company was ignoring me but it was Fragomen that kept using the wrong email address.
I wonder if my company would allow me use a personal lawyer for the GC process.

whats with the quotes...comparing to Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr...Please dont kid yourself.
They did it for their country and fellowmen to be free from the clutches of oppression (a much serious issue than green card i think). Although even that is extended selfishness (cos of being Indian or African American) but they dedicated their entire lives for that cause.
We are not even close...this is just for MY GREEN CARD!
am i wrong?
Don't you think you are not free from the clutches. If getting some green card relieves so many people from clutches why not fight for it?

Understood every point of yours & I stand by what you said except for the language as it could have been a bit better. Regarding EB3 or EB2, maybe IV should work attaching a provision as part of its CIR work, which makes USCIS determine whether a candidate is in EB3 or EB2 based on the PERM & 140 instead of letting companies & attorneys mention it. If this happens the process will be much better as USCIS controls the categories & applicants do not need to beg a company to throw them into an EB2 basket or EB3 basket. Also, applicants can have certain amount of freedom from the companies.
When a process is flawed, there is always room for abuse. Of course, the abuse might be minimal, but when we see people with masters & 15 years of experience toiling in EB3 category it pains my heart. It is a fact there could be lesser qualified inidividuals who are in EB2 category, but the companies have managed to use these to hold the employees as hostage.
Hopefully USCIS someday understands this and takes control of assigning applicants into categories than asking company & attorney to mention.
Just sharing my two cents. Also, frustrations from EB3 should be tolerated by IV members, instead of beating them with "red dots". Because if we request members to put their time and effort then it would be mostly EB3 members as they are the "worst" affected. I am sure every year between july-sept most of EB2 members will do bulletin-watching & there is nothing wrong in it.
Next year by this time only EB3 will be here and I dont think many of the EB2 will even bother to read the forum. God bless EB3. Even for those guys with PD in 2003 if you think that you will be lucky in year or two, try buying lottery tickets too. You might win a jackpot.
Good Luck guys...

IV core team,
Whats the plan of action given that CIR is dead for now?The best would be to try to attach a small relief like S.1932 in 2005 to some budget appropriations bill.Even SKIL will gather lot of unnecessary attention.Did we spend all our funding on this lost cause and need to contribute again?If so its better to start now as IV got lot of new users.
As I said my numbers are not accurate, there are lot of visas unused since retrogression, we need to take look at this and spent more time researching and contacting right organization

It is good to know that state chapters are semi internet. I beg to differ with you regarding "feeling that you are in trouble". Expecting people to feel that they are in trouble by telling them so will never work. If someone thinks they are in trouble they would work out the solution on their own, they will not sit and wait for someone to help. This is a flawed assumption.
Anyways I am going to join the IV chapter to share more of my ideas to help this cause. Already sent a PM to chanduv23
State boards are kind of semi internet usgae only (Though not forum...). But those also do not make passive ones come ahead. So real issue is not the type of meet, the first real issue is feeling that you are in trouble..and 2nd is to stand up for fighting against that. And 3rd.. yes through IV we will be able to do this and so become active.

Ok,
so the the US lists, the catagories as Mexico, India, china, and the philpines.
that is 4 counties..... with what ever percentage of the total visas..
But ROW the rest of the world.....how many countries is that???? i am guessing lots... i personally am only conserned with the UK as that is where i am at the moment. so how do i go about finding the number of visa's that the UK is aloted per year? in EB catagories.
because i dont see how if say Germay, or Italy used up all there visas for the year, but the rest of the world hadent, or even half and half....how can the entire of the rest of the world be retrogressed.??? is there not a list of how indervidual countries are retrogressed....? if this is stupid please say though, but i think it is quite a valid question.

Please don't start shouting at me for being "anti-BEC-victims", because I'm not. But just consider this. Even if you are able to turn mountains around and get a suit filed against DOL before Sept 2007 they will be be able to get it thrown out or at least get a stay simply by stating they already have a public commitment to clearing all the cases by Sept 2007 so it will be non issue in just couple of months. You will not have strong case till Sept 2007 is actually passed and they have not delivered on the commitment. Sept 2007 is just two months away. Use these months to do your ground work like finding and mobilizing BEC victims etc. and go for the actual action only after Sept 2007 dead line has passed. This way if they really deliver on their promise you would save yourself lot of money and trouble.
Just my 2 cents. Your grievances are 100% genuine and I do feel for you. Hopefully they will clear this mess soon.

Who are you to decide who is needed and who is not needed? Are you sure you do not access other sites for news on immigration; and, IV does not encourage people who come to it for news only?
If answer is yes, please ban my access.

Flower campaign wasnt started by iv (atleast not by the seniors), it slowly gathered momentum on its own and produced results. After seeing this bulletin I ve lost hope in all this lobbying and stuff. We need publicity and more of it. Fasting for a day if organized by iv could bring more results.

This is yet another example of how the US is happy to tax us and let us finance Social Security, then place us in a similar category to "illegal aliens" when it suits them. Please give results on any legal redress as soon as you have them, as I will join also. I have already written to Congressman Chris Van Hollen of Maryland about this.

I recommend ww.usvisanews.com
Very responsive and efficient, from my experiance...
As I have said in an earlier post I highly recommend www.shusterman.com especially Ellie Njfabadi. The Best.
Another highly recommended person is John Dorer (para legal) -- www.usvisanow.com --- very very efficient and extremely cheap -- prices are 1/3 of what other law firms charges. Plus excellent reviews from all over.
Avoid Robert Lubin -- Good work but asks for money for every thing even to answer some simple question...
And again... no body can beat --- DO IT YOURSELF firm.
