I had FREE company attorney but decided to file 485 etc. myself & it was so much better. You can easily do 140-485 etc yourself. Call me & I will tell you.
If at all use an attorney for PERM. In my situation, even that was screwed up & I had to do that myself.
It is high time, all of us capable of handling complex viral equations, do this simple job , spread the knowledge , save $$$ & contribute some savings to IV
Best wishes
I am tired of my company lawyers. They did not file my 485 when my PD became current in June bulletin. I gave all the documents required. I missed an opportunity big time. Even now they are not responding when i ask them when will they file my application. After reading the msgs posted in this forum i am confident that i can do 485 myself. What is your # that i can call in case i have any qs?

The DOS after consulting with attorneys and the Congress has concluded that EB visa numbers should spill over horizontally rather than vertically. Relevent legal clauses addressing this issue were posted by IV members yesterday. DOS now admits it's previous interpretation of vertical spill over (excess visas going to EB-3 ROW) was wrong. Can it be challenged or reversed?, Of course possible but very unlikely to happen in the near future in the next several months.
All said and done, I'll say vdlrao calculations with (sumagiri correction:) look credible.
Can you please post a link?

Campaign contribution is the lubricant oil of politics (all pun intended - big oil is the biggest contributor to both parties).
Strength of IV & the skilled immigrant community should translate to campaign dollars. If the skilled immigrant community is in powerful positions in big firms, they can influence company contributions. Same applies for companies (to be) founded by immigrants.
We need to put our money where our mouth is.
Sapota,
Thanks for your message. I just wanted to clarify that no IV member should contribute or volunteer for a lawmakers election efforts because it is illegal to do so. Only US citizens can do that. We can only influence indirectly.

Same excat thing happend to our family. They had to drive down from North Carolina to get the PIO card from Embassy in Washington.
Hi All,
I applied for my daughter's PIO card and sent all the documents as mentioned in the instructions sheet of the embassy website along with the self addressed stamped envelope. I heard from my other friends that even after you send everything in order, the embassy people would call and say that they did not receive the self addressed stamped envelop. It happened to three of my friends. I am the 4th one. They called today to tell that I did not send the envelope.
The funny part that happened with my friends is that, they all sent $20 and the package came in the very envelope they sent in the first place, that the embassy said they didn't receive.
Did anybody of you also had the same kind of experience or similar incident. If so, please do share.
Why are they doing like that? Do they really think we would do like that, trying to save on an self addressed envelope? It really bothered me for the fact that the lady from the consulate was utterly rude when talking. I am amazed how in the world, The Indian Government is still hiring such people? Of more then a billion population, is that the best person the government of India could find for that customer service post? Its a shame and I am ashamed that such dic*heads working and representing India?
Coming back to the issue...she said sternly, send $20.00 or send envelope stamped otherwise the application would not be processed.
Folks, please let me know where I can complain about this careless attitude of this monster woman. What steps can I take to make sure they don't do that again? I live in TN and I can't fly/drive to Washington DC. The questions is not about the money, but the way they are operating without any ethics is deplorable.
Hoping to hear all your valuable suggestions.
Thank you.

Giving suggestion, since i went thru similar situation,i.e moved to a diff state.
We moved to Florida from California last week. Did AR-11 yesterday. We are about to file AP, our I-485 is pending at NSC but Florida comes under TSC.
File AR-11 first, after you see the LUD's(should not take more than 5 businesss days), which means ur new address is acknowledged by USCIS sytem , apply for AP
So not sure where to send our application.
Send to your current residence Service center, i.e. TSC
Intending to send following supporting documents.
1. 2 PP Size photos
2. EAD copy as we switched from H1B to EAD
3. I-485 receipts.
Should we include any additional docs like Copy of your previously issued AP or passport copy (1st ,2nd page and last 2 pages) or Last expired I-94 copy.
4.Old approved AP copies, if any.
Any advise would be of great help.
I did paper filing, it took about 3 weeks to get approved.Hope this helps
Thanks
Raj

I know this is probably asking for trouble but no movement can be credible without listening to the dissenting voices. So here is my gripe ... You cannot open a single thread or forum without being asked for contributions these days. People are told that if they dont contribute, they are not "supporting the cause".
But the stark reality is this... If you look at the IV website to see what action/progress has been made in "the cause"....there is some vague statement about Patton Boggs and how we have this lobbyist who is educating congressmen...Who exactly? How? When? Oh those details cannot be given.
There is a link about IV in the news...the last time IV was in the news was in Sept 2007 ...19 MONTHS AGO...
Then there is a link about IV and FBI namechecks...The last update is some thread in Feb 08 and this brilliant statement from 2007 ..."IV has met officials from agencies and has raised this issue in the recent past. We have been informed that there is an effort being undertaken to significantly reduce name check backlogs in the next 6 months." SERIOUSLY?? You really expect that you can convince people to contribute based on this flimsy evidence of doing "something" that you really cant tell us ??
For those asking for money, THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE UPDATE ON ANY PROGRESS SPECIFICALLY ACHIEVED BY IV IN THE LAST YEAR AND HALF !!!
How can you justify this? Actually, you dont have to....There are many like me who will answer questions of panicked people about how to navigate the complex immigration system but until IV can provide some concrete proof of what specifically it is doing, how exactly it is spending the money and what roadmap of progress it hopes to achieve and whether it is on its way to achieving it....the money wells will continue to be dry.
And this new caste system of the DONOR forum which basically says screw you to everyone who has spent time, money or effort on IV and completely goes against the "Change for fairness and Justice" mumbo jumbo is a step in the right direction, IV needs to give way to an actual movement that actually does something and this DONOR forum concept will certainly go a long way in the marginalization of this site and community.
You did say it is a gripe so fair enough.
"IV can provide some concrete proof of what specifically it is doing," - what does that mean? I have been repeatedly told, that IV is us and we should be coming up with a plan of action if we want to do something. Do you disagree ? I am currently going on that assumption, no ?

Per AILA:...2 BIG 'IFs'
Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) has scheduled a procedural vote on a motion to proceed with the Senate immigration reform bill (S. 1639) for Tuesday, June 26, 2007. If the motion passes with 60 or more votes, senators will begin debate on a negotiated list of 24 amendments, split evenly between the two parties.
Debate and votes on the amendments will continue until the morning of Thursday, June 28, at which point the bill will be put to a second procedural vote to limit debate. If it passes with 60 or more votes, the Senate will have 30 hours of additional time to debate and vote on the outstanding amendments. If the bill survives this procedural gauntlet, a vote on final passage could occur late on Friday or possibly Saturday.

reading above posts it reminds me what I read :
Lot of junk sold in US...
People have gotten used to buying things that have no value. Wherever donation boxes are putup or beggers stand , people put money. Come on one does not need to pay because a other guy is asking.
So its upto the individuals to donate. Personally I dont feel one can do much to accelerate the GC process. If you read the history you can comeup with a list of things that changed the way things got done in US!!
Have a good one guys.
that's ok, you are eb2. so no worries, totally understand. no one is asking you to donate, did u get a personal email or phone call from me asking you to donate? You came to this thread, read my post, felt guilty conscious, and thought someone is asking you to donate, and came up with an absurd reason not to contribute. who asked you to contribute in the first place?
History? your I-485 was applied on 2nd July, 2007. Do u know the history of why u'r AOS was not thrown out the window because CIS reversed the visa bulletin? Who cares, as long as you are in the queue and others are paying for your free lunch.

This is the spirit IV leadership should have. After all we are building an organization with human beings not mechanical parts. We should be more compassionate towards junior members and bench warmers.

Tech firms, upset about the provisions in the bill related to visas for skilled foreign workers, known as H-1Bs, are not yet saying whether they would oppose it.
Instead, they are banking on an amendment to be offered by Sens. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., John Cornyn, R-Texas, Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. that would exempt from the H-1B annual cap foreign workers with advanced degrees from U.S. universities or with advanced degrees in science, technology, engineering and math.

if competeamerica, tech industry etc are waiting for this amendment so a good guess is that it would get introduced to be voted upon

People were very happy with the last USCIS announcement but we all forgot about pain of people who are stuck in years of backlog. Though some of those unfortunate may have used harsh or improper language, but they had all the right to express their feelings. We all talk about Gandhian philosophy, but we need to be more tolerant. Before we ask to ban anyone from our forum, please try to put yourself in their shoes.
Our fight is far from over, we should all fight for for in-justice made to people who are trapped in the bureaucracy.

Assuming thay the information they will share is what all of us are seeking, it is not going to be a bad deal if we can find 500 people willing to chip in for this initiative (I am an optimist guys).
If they are going to give out the information, then it should be ok to pay $5k.
Questions are:
a) How soon will the work be finished?
b) Can they please integrate this request into their processes that they generate the numbers periodically, such that visa bulletins reflect demand appropriately?

I know you have been correct in the past but I think we have just gotten over the hump of 2003 and a small portion of 2004 for EB2. The majority of 2004 and early 2005 still remains. There was a huge jump in March 2005 to beat PERM. I dont understand how it will reach 2007
Here are all the LC approvals for India in the last seven years.
Year, Total LC Approved, Total India
2007 85112 24573
2006 79782 22298
2005 6133 1350
2004 43582 No Info
2003 62912 No Info
2002 79784 No Info
2001 77921 No Info
2000 70204 No Info
Based on the labor approvals, I am expecting EB2 will touch 2007 in the next 3 to 5 visa bulletins. Since, till late 2005 EB2 is current only. Say there are about 10 thousand back log EB2s and they need 10thousand *2.5 visas= 25 thousand visas.Because in 2006, 22298 labors been approved, say half of that means 10 thousand are EB2 and 10 thousand *2.5= 25,000 visas are neaded to clear offf all 2006. So to clear all EB2s till 2006 Dec theres a need of 50k visas. But due to the spillovers we are getting 50k visas in 2008 fiscal year itself. So for the year starting with 2009 theres a strong possibility of EB2 PD to move to 2007. And before and after PERM there are very few applied for Labors. The above data itself showing the less numbers after PERM implemented.
