Just Thought
There is 200k application without 140 approval, this is including july filers.
there is lot of chnace for those who got their I-140 approved, even their PD '2006.
you can see people getting approved PD'2005 EB2 cases, even then VB says now 2004'apr for EB2.They are not processing based on PD now and in future also i gues.Since we have already filed.PD will restrict only to File I-485 in future.

TSC approving old PD I140 first and that is suffient for demand supply ratio. no approval possible with PD'2005 EB2 cases for contries like India.

This is pure propaganda and the height of protectionist folly. It is the type of retrograde ideology and manipulative language that feeds the worst fears of struggling blue collar workers.
There was a piece on CBS this weekend, espousing the benefits of skilled immigration and Fareed Zakharia taking about the imperative of America having a wiser immigration and education policy if it wishes to maintain its leadership position in the world.
The fact is we are not anchor immigrants. We are JOB ANCHORS. We anchor jobs for others in America or wherever we end up. Our skills are in demand globally and those skills draw capital and investment, additionally the service sector jobs then get built around them. When Microsoft sets up a development center in Vancouver instead of Seattle, the other jobs to serve those employees are anchored in Canada not the USA. Skilled immigrants are net job creators. For most Americans our presence adds vibrancy to the economy, more jobs, more investments, more skills and more taxes and is an overall plus to competitiveness. This country has never been short of opportunity, it has been short of people to take advantage of these opportunities. None of this is refutable, and so they take the weakest, vaguest link they have to our homelands, to make a dismal case against our presence here. They are such losers, words do not begin to describe them. They are mostly offshoots of old race based organisations, now reduced to shadow tactics such as this, spreading misinformation, propaganda and vitriol. The irony is they may be Americans but they do not represent the American spirit, we on the other hand may not be American but represent the American spirit.

Who the hell r U kidding? By calling urself "BharatPremi" u r making a BIG fool of urself. If u r really a patriotic Indian why the hell did u apply for ur GC? Just work for those 6 H1B yrs and get the hell out of this country. Dont make a fool of urself and others by saying things like "at this moment" hez a citizen of another country blah blah blah...I know a few friends who just love India and would wanna go back after earning dollars for those 6 yrs H1B lets u work for. I appreciate such ppl...not ppl like u who try to "show off" that they r citizens of another country by shouting slogans and at the same time apply for permanent residencies with other countries...SHAME ON U PPL! U r a disgrace not only to US but to India and to the whole world as well.

Hi Ragz4u,
This is THE time to stop answering negative mails,and convincing chronic doubters. It definitely distracts. Maybe until the bills gets to voting on the Senate floor, we should all unilaterally stop spilling out our doubts and apprehensions on to the forum. Any serious chronic and obsessive doubters should write a PM to Ragz4u or any other internal contacts.
Now, coming to more useful part: Many of the universities and research institutions employ chinese and Indian postdocs and researchers on H1. Many of them sponsor GCs via EB2 and rarely EB1. Although many members here in the forum are under EB3 (isn't it?), the retrogression affects both EB2 AND EB3. The catch is, these institutions come under (many of them if not most) a category called non-profit, no cap etc. Looks like they cannot, as institutions, lobby against retrogression. I personally tried to do this in my institution but I was turned away; also my institution is very small unlike for example: University of California schools, or University of Texas schools. In all these institutions, the affected researchers work for individual Nobel laureates, accomplished professors (both chinese and Indian origin AND native born Americans) who can support the efforts. That requires a nodal point for information exchange. One side, IV can do this and on the other end, there are somethings called: postdoctoral fellow associations in many universities.
They are cataloged at: http://www.nationalpostdoc.org/
It will make more sense for an organization like IV trying to convince NPA to raise this issue than individuals like me. I have been in science for 14 years and I say from my experience.
There are two renowned science journals that talk about career issues.
The journal Science www.sciencemag.org has a portal called NextWave that deals with career issues of scientists. They frequently write about many visa issues but they need to be dealing with a resource to write about retrogression etc.
http://sciencecareers.sciencemag.org/
Another equally good portal belongs to Nature journal:
http://www.nature.com/naturejobs/magazine/index.html
Eveybody talks about retaining best talents back in US but there is no support heard from academic communites on this. So instead of answering
chronic doubters, IV should try to reach out to these organizations.

I am also on EAD and recently booked an house. Just pay 5% down payment and enjoy. I want my Kids to be raised in good neigbourhood and school. If my GC rejected , I will happily go back to India.
some time back when I had called I was told it was assigned to an officer (PD not current though). What does that mean?
I never had any RFE, but my case has been bounced around for no reason. From TSC->CSC->TSC and I am told that it is not even pre-adjudicated not even assigned to any officer as yet. I have yet to see any more illogical organization other than USCIS. :mad:

I agreee with the spirit of things - that multiple ways of expressing anguish, disgust, frustration is required.
While we have to keep generating funds and doing the lobbying, the frustration of the members must be "used".
Here is my suggestion (and this was mentioned by someone earlier also) - let's send the criss-crossed and blackened photocopies of our degrees, patents, publications etc. to the congress and other authorities as a symbol of how useless these are becoming as we wait for GCs. We can coordinate the event such that everyone's reaches at around the same time.
Again, all I am saying is that we can do multiple things to gain attention and make our point, and these can happen simultaneously with the other activities ongoing at the State chapter level.

Guys,
I just renewed my DL (9/06) at a local DMV here in NJ, I brought with me my bank statement/insurance, SSN card and EAD card. A nice lady just asked for my SSN and EAD. The whole process took 30 minutes. My DL has one year expiration. I am just waiting for my GC so I can go back and get a 5 year DL. Cheers.

I downloaded the 2004 file as you said and searched it, but could not find any information about my labor. Do you think the labor apps processed by backlog centers are in a separate file???
If you click on the link called "PERM" on the left hand side - there is an MDB file called 2004 (in a zip file). Try to download an Access reader and go for it.

As per Ron Gotcher more bills are going to be introduced and then they will try to consolidate them into one. He has his response at the following link:
http://immigration-information.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7013
Re: Hr 264
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is one of three expected bills introduced in the House. The sponsor of this bill (there were no co-sponsors) is Sheila Jackson-Lee. She is a fringe player. Next Tuesday, Luis Gutierrez, the chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, plans to introduce his version of CIR. It will most likely concentrate on amnesty.
At some point in the future, we can expect a bill from Zoe Lofgren. The Lofgren bill will be the one that will have bi-partisan supporters and will be taken seriously. That will be the "real" CIR proposal in the House.
If I had to bet on it, my bet would be that if anything at all passes, it will be visa recapture, quota expansion, and H1b relief. There is a strong core of support for those measures. The weakest component of CIR is amnesty.

Well said Satish!
5&6 raise an important issue - Could there be potential EAD and AP time lost between the actual approval dates and by the time these documents reach us in the mail?
Guys, as we all know we can not build our careers on EAD and TD. For a permanent solution, join us in the DC rally!
This is what happens after 485 receipts.
1. If one has not applied for EAD and TD , one applies for them and wait anxiously for their receipts.
2. Meanwhile some people start getting FP notices and one does not receive them he or she gets anxious. Finally one gets FP.
3. Meanwhile one gets the receipts for EAD, TD. One keeps checking the status online.
4. One goes and gives finger prints for INS.
5. Finally one gets his or her EAD and TD after 5 to 6 months , One enjoys the moment briefly.
6. Its almost a month since one received EAD and AP , Its time to apply for renewal.
7. Repeat step 1
8. Its almost 15 months since the first FP and one receives the second one because "Finger prints expire" ,
One has to repeat these steps in a cycle for almost 6 to 10 years depending on PD and "Nationality"
Meanwhile if USCIS changes any processes anywhere in the pipeline expect further delays.
I think best thing is to do participate in IV activities.

Only portion which makes sense in your post is your user name "Freedom_fighter" :D
i guess someone with your great sense can solve the misery from the nonsense of USCIS. I'd not mind if you can accomplish anything to help the cause.

oh yeah ...well atleast it helped someone. btw did you get your $2.00 payout :-) from bear stearns. the problem comes when senior members have the my way or the high way attitude. and for ordinary folks like us the "My way" attitude is not producing any visible results. and I guess since you are out of work now since BS is no longer there --can you come up with a better approach ??
albertpinto, "Senior Members" are just ordinary members like everybody else except they have posted more than 100 times. IV has an agenda and list of action items, and we all members need to actively participate. The outcome no body can guarantee because there are so many political interests and people pulling and pushing the immigration debate everywhere. However, the more we keep on pressing for our needs and educating the general population and the lawmakers about our situation, the more likely we will get help.
Its not like the IV core has things written on stone. They do listen to ordinary members like us but there isn't enough resources to engage in every "good idea". They best way to participate is through state chapters, and let the IV core know through the state chapters. At the end, we need volunteers to do the things we want to do.

So here come the thing. Thats why i asked in my original post is IV just for people who have applied for Green card ? I wanted to know if they could address these issues as well . Regarding inability to work and self esteem , just stay in home for few days and then feel how much you loose. Man , its 21st century and ability to work is basic right.
Please do not misinterpret IV.
If tomorrow there is a bill to stop all H1B from coming to USA or to make life difficult for H1B, do you really think we will keep quiet just because we have filed our greencards?
Do you know IV worked hard for decoupling of H4 time from H1 in 2006 and we thought nothing may happen and started to focus on next action item. Then few months later it was changed. That was the first small step.
I would appreciate if you ask your spouse if she/he can volunteer time for IV. You both can get more involved. Send us an email if you are interested. We are always interested in people who can volunteer more time than us (We do full time jobs too. A couple of us also are enrolled in a part time degree program). We are willing to have such an H4 be a leader in IV.
IV is a platform that will allow you voice your plight. But you will need to come forward and be willing to actively work on it with others. If the strategy is right, you are committed and have right intentions there is no reason why IV will not help.
