Does anyone understand what is used to calculate the 3 year period for advanced degree olders?
Is the end of the three year period considered when you applied for LC, or when you apply for 485/140? Since, technically, people who are pending at the BEC as well as those who are affected by retrogression are still on NIV, and have not applied for immigrant Visa yet.
This point will have an impact on a lot of folks who may have applied for LC less than three years after getting their Degree but would have crossed that limit by the time they can apply for the immigrant Visa.

have not been following this thread so deep. Looks like if someone introduces the other person to vonage service, does both of them get 2 months free? if yes, could someone refer me. pls me me. thanks.
If someone refers you get 2 months free, but you can still get additional 20% off too by paying for 1 year in advance.
Check the article on my blog (http://www.gortp.com/vonage-free-calls-to-india/). It has both the referral banner and savings calculation.

I think it has to be a little more than that.
The job description should be there in this letter that should match the labor cert (mostly if not exactly).

Do you have F1 stamped or you just changed your status from F-1 to H-4?
My wife has H4 stamped on her passport which expired last year. We had got H4 extended last year, but has not been stamped. After that she changed status to F1 again not stamped. Now as per my lawyer's advice probably we will need to change her status back to H4.
My lawyer has suggested that it is not advisable to be on F-1 while applying for 485. You might argue that you are not the primary applicant ( on F1), and USCIS might buy that. But risks remain. Specifically if you have to travel out of country before your I-485 application is adjudicated you will have problem.
Since we all know that right now USCIS is just taking applications, and it might be mighty long time before applications are adjudicated, I have decided to not take risk applying on F1 status.

This is not a bad idea.
If everyone think this is a good idea, then we need to do this with a little more planning than the flower campaign.
We can route the pizzas to hospitals and orphanages, shelter for the homeless etc also.

Sorry to find about your difficulty. I had worst experience of my life at Bombay airport.
not getting the right salary is not these scumbags problem. You pay them 200 thousand a month, they still steel money from passengers. Corruption is in their entire body. Not easy to cleanse them. New generation workers are a little better.
Interesting to read all these experiences.
Let me share mine in Mumbai, although it was a couple of years ago.
I was born in India but have a foreign passport. When you are leaving the country they have an officer interview you. I am not sure why, but it is quite unusual, kind of like an exit interview I guess. I have not seen that anywhere else.
Anyway the guy asked all sorts of detailed questions, and then finally asked me how much Rupees cash I have with me. I told him I'm not exactly sure, but about 1000Rs(about 20 dollars at that time). He told me the limit was 800Rs for foreigners leaving India and told me it was illegal to take Indian Rupees out of the country and asked me to take out my wallet and count it, when I counted it, it turned out I had 1400 Rs in my wallet. Then he became quite irate and condescending and asked me what I do for a living, I told him I am a doctor, then he went on insulting me, asking whether I would say that a patients temperature was 104 if it was 101! I told him that is not relevant here. He got angrier and told me he will have to confiscate that money. I told him 1400 Rs is not that much money and I could spend it in the departure lounge before I left. He was livid. He asked me to hand over the Indian currency. I was not quite sure what to do, but I sure as hell knew I did not want this scumbag to have that money. So I turned around and gave the balance above 800Rs to another passenger in line next to me and said take it as a gift from a stranger. That pushed him over the edge, he started yelling in Hindi. I told him I do not speak Hindi, that seemed to upset him even more. By this time other passengers were aware of what was going on as well and were objecting as well. He was fuming and walked away from his desk yelling and shouting in Hindi and his supervisor came to take over. He asked what the issue was and I explained it to him. He waved me by and moved on to the next passenger.
Later that passenger, came up to me in the departure lounge and returned the money I gave her. We started chatting, and I asked her to join me in the restaurant as our flight was 3 hrs away so we went to the restaurant and spent it all in the departure lounge on a meal and a couple of drinks and the tip.
They need to improve things and get rid of these morons in those airports. Perhaps they need to pay them realistic salaries and then make them more accountable. They don't realize it and perhaps care even less, but they represent India's image and brand every day in the eyes of visitors and travellers alike.

Can USCIS or DOS reimburse me for pain they have caused and all the expenses I had to incurr due to their whims and fancies. There seems to be more weight to the rumors as all of a sudden every attorney is saying the same thing.:mad:
The total number of applications excluding EB2, EB3 are 7,653.
The total visa's per annum -> 140,000
Considering that there would be more applications during the year from non-retrogressed countries/categories ..it is evident now that there won't be more than 5K such applications. On pessimistic side even if we consider 10K such applications, The visas available for retrogressed EB2 and EB3 should be around 120K this year.
Total pending EB2 is 74,932. So EB2 should be Current for all countries this year.
EB3 should get around 40K visas this year.
Any one disagrees?

My wife is on F1 visa and I am hoping the dates will move soon and we will be able to file 485. I would like to know if
>she can file 485 by being in F1 ?
If you are under H1b and she is applying for 485 together with you then answer is yes she can.
>Once she files being in F1, can she still continue to be on F1 and travel in and out of US on F1?
No because F1 is for non immigrant as F1 you show that you have no intention to move to US but once your file your I-485 you show an intention to move and stay in US therefore F1 is no longer valid.
>What will be her status when she starts using EAD if she filed being in F1?
Once she filed 485 she will be waiting for her status to be Permanent resident.
her F1 is no longer valid. She can work using her EAD but if I485 got reject she will be automatically out of status and has to go out from US.
I'm not a lawyer what I've told and writte has to be confirm with your attorney.
Also Please see below answer by Attorney Murthy:
Hello. My wife is studying on F-1 visa and I filed I-485 for her. (I have a valid H1B.) Can we now change from AOS to CP? Will this in any way affect her status or mine?
Attorney Murthy : A person on F-1 is no longer considered on F-1 status once she files the I-485 papers, unlike the person on an H1B who is legally allowed to maintain both statuses. So, if a person who only had F-1 status switches to CP, then the spouse has to switch to H-4 status in the U.S. immediately. Otherwise, she is considered out of status in the U.S. if the USCIS agrees to cancel the I-485 and convert the case to CP.

Till date my checks have not been cashed. When I Called service center yesterday they gave me Receipt Number for I-485 (LINXXXXXX) but again she told me that�s its Invalid then she put me on hold and checked something then see verified my address, Social security number also My Attorney�s Name and address. After confirming this information she told me Receipt Number of I-485 is yours but its Void in our system let me check it online and online it shows case received and pending.
Now she said its weird its showing Valid in online system and in our internal system its Invalid. Then she asked me did you file 131 and 765 along with this I said yes then she said let me check it and found nothing.
She has created one service request for me and asked me to wait another 45 days.
Meanwhile I told this matter to my Attorney and he told me not getting receipt is normal and I could have asked you to wait till October 15�th but you are there in the system and why they have stopped processing you applications looks strange to me also applications is not been rejected. So he told me that he will write letter to USCIS director to investigate this issue and assured me that as long as we are in their system so don�t have to worry but he told me that if Director don�t respond in one month�s time then we will go to court but he is optimistic that situation may not go to that.
If anyone of you in similar situation please let me know.

Maybe we can use the H-1 B reform bill, to recapture unused visas during the last many years. Make H-1 B tough but at the same time, release those green card numbers. Carrot and Stick approach.
Guys,
This is one of the key reasons why we are not successful in our mission. All we can do is "lets kill H1/L1 so I can get GC", "lets not worry about EB3 as long as my EB2 is fine!". The only way we can make any progress is to stay united. Lets not try to find carrots that would really be sticks on people who are also part of this cause.

Check this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8px_KyIFyo. Check the top 10 Bush moments. If you have a problem blame it on some body :). This time it is lender's turn.
To be frank, I am in the corporate world as a Director of some crap and I see no ethics.Face the life buddy. Don't talk this ehics shit in this world. Tell me frankly if you did not throw any one under the bus for your future (you don't have to tell, just get it to your thoughts).
And to answer your question, my parents are illeterates, they did not teach me anything (I love them a lot still because they spent lot of money to get me to this position), I learnt a lot by myself with their money.
No wonder we are in this mess. After this economic storm we will be learning in managment classes on the enrons and unethical gurus and how we have in place rules to avoid this crap again. And we will probably not have capitalism as we know...

Dear Friends and well wishers,
Please take a minute and Your call today can help half million people ( Talented, Legal immigrants ) in waiting ...
BACKGROUND & TALKING POINTS
HR5882 was sponsored by Congresswoman Lofgren and Congressman Sensenbrenner. This bill recaptures all the unused visa numbers that have been lost since 1992 due to processing delays in Employment based category and Family category. It is estimated that 216000 green cards will be recaptured which would help to eleviate the employment based backlogs.
Please use the instructions provided below to make the phone calls.
(1) Call the congressman/woman office and request to speak with the aide who handles Legislative and Immigration matters
(2) If they are not available leave a VM for them -
"I would like Representative "Representative Name" to support HR 5882, bill to recapture the green cards lost due to processing and bureaucratic delays. As you may already know that this is a bi-partisan bill with wide bipartisan support in the house and will help improve American competitiveness & reduce the back logs associated with USCIS. This bill is non controversial measures that will help US to stay competitive with a highly educated and skilled work force and address family based backlogs also."
To All congress-critters:
In a nutshell, this bill allows USCIS to manage their workflow more effectively, which provides better customer service, and will eventually lead to better turn-around times.
Pls inform Majority Members Democrats: More people will be able to get their citizenship in reasonable times.

(3) As usual Do NOT get into the CIR issue or illegal Immigration. If the aide is confusing with CIR or illegal immigration, just tell them that these are legal immigration bills.
(4) If the aide asks whether you belong to the district or not, tell them NO if you don't. Mention to them that you already spoke with your representative and would like the congressman/congresswoman
support.
Community of half million will appreciate and bless you for your efforts...
Thank You

More info :
Please take a minute and review the list of Judiciary members http://judiciary.house.gov/about/members.html. If you, your friends, or your
family have any district-based connection with any of them, please reach out to these members (phone, email, fax, etc), let them know how important it is
to get the bill passed this month and urge them to vote YEA on the bill. Constituent interest/support from key individuals, health care providers,
recruiters and other organizations is critical at this stage.
It will be great be to have major support from House Judiciary Committee http://judiciary.house.gov/about/members.html on Wednesday, September 10,
2008. In these economic and crucial times for our country...
