Matthew OH is playing with words since yesterday. I am not even sure if he knows what he is talking about. Did you guys read the stuff about 485 filing. The phrase "Untangling the tangled mess" was mentioned 3-4 times. After reading his notices, one has to wonder what the heck is he talking about.
Well...he is working hard to get "14 million hits" on his website. 13 million is not really enough you see :)

Every airlines has its onw set of issues - u will get the pinch only when shit hits the fan. My bags were stranded in Dubai and when I reached Chennai I had nothing with me except a small bag with no clothes.
The agents told me - if you have Indian passport then Emirates will give you $$ compensation per day but if you have American passport Emirates will give $$$ per day. They reimbursed me for 2 sets of clothes and shoes and $50 per day for three days because my bags arrived one by one on the third and fourth day after calling them everyday and pressurising them. If we did not call them - the bags would come slower than that. In Dubai the bags were in hot sun and I had choclates inside and somehow the cover broke and choclates melted and seeped through and a I think you all can imagine how it is.
What I am saying is - things are good everywhere unless we get into issues. Things were good until Retrogression hit us here. Now we complain about difference in treatment - but earlier wenever complained.
What I am saying is - when dealing with things outside of your home country - you cannot expect or assume fairness to you.
I would submit that this is far more discriminatory than Air France or any other airline flying via Europe. The European carriers are bogged down by their country's immigration policies, it seems. I flew Air India via Frankfurt once and the German security officials had all Indian passport holders (not possessing a Schengen or transit visa) quarantined in a separate holding area with inadequate seating and restrooms for the hour-and-a-half layover. I can imagine the frustration that would have ensued had there been longer delays.
However, unequal compensation for troubles caused by the airline is entirely a different and unacceptable matter. It is discriminatory and I'm sure it violates some international mandate somewhere.
I disagree that because you are outside your country, you cannot expect to be treated fairly. Unless they have a solid evidence that you have broken a law, they should not treat you any different than any other person.

Trying to apply AP for spouse, his last entry into US was on F1 but since then he's been through H1 and current status is AOS filed. Should the Class of Admission be F1?
Whatever he used last to enter US, in this case F1(class of admission will be mentioned in the i-94 stamping
Which I-94 copy should be attached, the one that was stamped when he last entered US, or the latest I-94 he received from his last H1 filing?
I would attach both copies to be on safer side and avoid any RFE's,however i have never sent i-94 copies. Please take a look at my blog for list of documents/cover letter for AP. Hope you find it useful
Thanks in advance ..

Folks,
Here is the new record. Both mine and my wife's got approved within 10 days. Received/Notice date: June 16th. Got the approval emails today June 26th.
This was at TSC and we had done paper filing through my company lawyer.
Looks like they want to milk us again next year for another renewal.

Well it seems the idea to get a Stimulus for 2008 for people having spouses with ITIN is nearing dead end (no action). Now the government is planning another stimulus. I think we should work on taking the necessary steps to prevent the same happening this year (being dropped out). I think we should raise awareness and write to all people including President Obama.
Ideas / comments?
The problem is, that for all my efforts, people just don't seem to care. The only reason I had any success was the embarrassment I caused the government because of all the soldiers who were excluded. Immigrants in the US are viewed by most people as an unwanted scourge.
My employer has also been no help at all. I have been looking for work outside of the US, but unfortunately, the economic situation makes that a bit more challenging. Sorry if I sound pessimistic. That is just my personal experience.

I believe this ......
I am assuming that EB2 India will have a cut-off date of atleast June 2006 for Aug as well as Sep. The time window of approvals is Aug 1 2008 to Sep 30 2008. In this time frame, they will have to pull the files from shelves and make them ready for adjudication.
I also remember from I-485 field SOP, that first step is to contact US Consulate abroad where you filled your DS-156 if you traveled within last 12 months for any discrepancy. This step itself can take a long time.
Then there are a lot of people who had PD current but they haven't done finger-printing yet. Imagine time required to schedule fingerprints, appear for one, and then get the results.
Just my thoughts.

i would not recommend either murthy or R khanna i had a lousy exp with R Khanna and a friend of mine with murthy. I love Fragomen (my Co uses them) my last company i used Thomas Fan (based in MD) I like them both.
Fragomen is a huge firm - your experience will depend on the attorney/group dealing with your case (or company cases).
I am working in US from 99 - in three companies; and went thru partial GC process three times (once layedoff after the approval of labor; second left the company when they didnt agree to do PERM after labor is sent to PBEC; and third the current one - finally able to send 485 in July). Extended/Transferred H1b a few times. In all these cases the firm is same - Fragomen - but with different attorney's/groups. My experiences range from utter disappointment (a completely incompetent lawyer messing up relatively straight forward case and dont even correspond to explain anything) to much better (an attorney who does not mind to take calls and explain my concerns and actually sympathizes with my case and even remembers particulars). So it depends on the attorney you get.
If you are going with a lawyer on your own - you might be better off going with smaller firms. If your company has already gone with one of big law firms like Fragomen - you may not have much choice there - just deal diplomatically with the lawyer.

It does make sense that the overflow numbers are given to higher preference categories in single state oversubscribed countries. When you think about it, will that not be the most beneficial to United States? Who would you prefer .... and Unskilled professional from a ROW category or a skilled worker from an Oversubscribed country. I would gather it would make more sense to give the opportunity to the higher skilled since the benefit to US will be higher
The more I read this form, the more I become disgruntled with this community! To say that someone from a lower class of visa and not from an "Oversubscribed country" (and I am assuming you mean India) is less skilled and less deserving than someone from a higher class and oversubscribed country is ludicrous to say the least. Each and everyone of us (and I mean "legal immigrants") have our own skill sets and contribute equally to the American society. As long as we are competent at what we do, then we are all SKILLED in our own way. The only real defining difference among the visa classes is the level of education not skill. To suggest one is better based on education alone is arrogance and nothing else!
The U.S. immigration system is not without its flaws and despite the delays and frustrations, it is FAIR! The per country limit is to ensure that citizens of ALL nations have an equal opportunity to immigrate to the U.S. and not just a select few. The only thing that I have found unfair as far as immigration in this country is concerned is the politicians' focused efforts to do something for the "illegal" immigrants at the expense of the "legal" immigrants.
We are all in this together and the insults and innuendos that dominate this forum divide us so let's stop them and focus on the real issues!

Ah, this is getting competitive, is it?
Who should decide the winner? The grassroot, highly motivated, common IV members or the forum bigwigs like super (delegates) moderators? We will find out on 1st March.
Good work for the weekend! :)
ps: volunteers please honor your volunteer time commitments. We need the continuity to sustain our momentum
it got too cold so we had to go home. We got around 19 letters signed yesterday after our So.Cal meetup
Impossible to catch up with you:)
But NORCAL did collect 92 over the last weekend. I collected 40 of those (takes me to 197), the reason to mention this is, it is way too easy for anyone to do this, and people better had strong reasons to not do it!
Folks this is great news!! I agree, we are all winners in the end!!! :) But don't go trying to beat me now abhijitp haha just kidding :D
It's the weekend folks, let's print out some template letters and ask friends for 1 minute of their time.
Let's keep up the momentum, March 1st will be here before we know it.

dont be confused with "legal immigration", legal immigration in obama's world means family based immigration (vote bank politics) not EB immigration.
This is becuse about totally about 1 million people immigrate into US, out of which EB immigration is just 140K. Remaining are FB based. So, always EB is a piggy bag rider. In US, genereally immigration means family based immigration.

Guys,
There's no doubt CIR is going to be brought in this year. How much of it or any of it will get passed, is the issue. Congress, as last year is determined to amalgamate us with the illegals so they can freely oppose the bill and indirectly kill both kind of immigration. I think we should put all our resources towards lobbying and make as many friends on the hill as possible.

It's not a secret society. I saw them all at DC. May not know the names fully, but have seen them all. No ma'am I never thought they were aliens invading earth :p
I'm not anti-IV or anti-Core. I appreciate the work being done. I just posted my feelings on the way things work here, with the sincere hope that things can be improved. Definitely not for nitpicking.
Coming back to my point - you have answered it yourself. I think... I think... Here I think... I don't think..... It's a guessing game for us.
I'm not asking IV to post every financial transactions over here. It wouldn't hurt to publish summaries - xxx grands spent on yyyy action item. We collected xxxx amount, we need yyyy more.
Even Know-Nothing organizations like NumbersUSA do that. We know how much they spent last year and how much they're spending this year. There's a reason for it. Lobbying firms need to declare how much money they received from their clients each quarter.
There's a website called OpenSecrets.org where you can find out how much each organization spent on lobbying, including IV. So the figures are not so secret at all. In fact 'open secrets' after the next quarter.
Coming back to NumbersUSA, you'll find their views of every frigging piece of legislation in Senate and the House. Where's the IV analysis of STRIVE act? SKIL Bill? NU has a scorecard for every Congressman, what all they did etc. And here we are afraid to talk about what the lawmakers said , as if each one of them will be sponsoring a separate new bill to increase GC numbers for EB immigrants, and it will hurt if anti-immigrants learn of this plan!
We live in an open society. Each legislation, each ammendment gets posted on Thomas way before it comes up for discussion. NumbersUSA and other anti-immigrant organizations need not look here for what's coming up for discussion. They have their sources in Congressional staff/aides. In fact, most of us learn about upcoming legislations browsing NumbersUSA website, instead of on IV - as it should be! The kind of unneccessarily high secrecy, seen here, is self-defeating.
Trust is bi-directional. If you don't trust others, they won't trust you. It's easier to participate in things you know and understand, than following things you're instructed to trust blindly[ as in 'I won't tell you anything. I'm doing all I can to help you. You have to trust me on that']. Why do you think 'Know-Nothings' lost to Whigs?
I got a feeling that some members feel that IV run a secret community with-in IV (I am not sure how many watched the movie "The Stepford Wives" ).
I think that core members and volunters knows strategy and action plan well before others. I think there would be hierarchy within that also.
I dont see anything wrong in that.
Here I think what goes on internally.. If you are more active in the threads you would sure get a message from IV moderators about ur willingness to volunteer. IV core seriously does not have the ability to read the psyches of each individaul member and invite them int to the secret soceity(?). Only possible way to know for them is how much active you are for a while. i dont think there are any specific paramters for that , it is a matter IV core getting convinced that u r serious enough. Not a day or two.. How long .. and how serious you are with ur ideas...
About funds .. none of the organizations declare their monetory dealings openly. There is a youtube video by logiclife on this. see it if u have not laready seen it.
Keep up the good work.. Sure you would become the member of secret soceity soon :).

Excellent response. I have been a silent admirer of IV for some time. IV has represented the aspirations of all the EB applicants. people should understand that the US allotment of visas to foreign Nationals is only based on what is fair for the country (US). It does not matter to them to what country the applicant belongs but what matters is the qualifications and their benefit to the advancement of the US. I am appauled to see some of the members racheting up this irrational discussion about the spillovers when DOS clearly stated recently what the intent of the law was. the sooner they get over this issue, the better for them and for every one on the forum as the existing rules will NOT change regarding the spillover. we have to concentrate our efforts on how we can improve conditions for every body affected by this retroression. efforts aimed at one category and that too one country will almost certainy fail. I am also shocked to see a few EB3 I expressing anger over dates moving for EB2. personally if I see a person from my country getting his visa approved, then I would feel very happy for him even if I am waiting for some time. I know it will be difficult, but atleast spare some joy for your country men and women who are getting some well deserved relief after such a long wait. one of my old friends told me once "if you have a friend from India, don't rely on him to help you, because you will not get much help moreover some people will only try to pull you down, but if you take people from other countries, it is exactly the opposite as they try to help each other in every possible way". I agree that it is very distressing for every one that the dates are retrogressed, but now that EB2 has moved, all of a sudden some people woke up from a deep sleep and started making these arguments that have no legal basis. None of these people expressed their anger when EB3 ROW was being preferred over more qualified EB2 I and C and making EB2 unavailable. I know a lot of people from EB2 protested at this wrong interpretation of the law, but I don't remember anyone ever criticizing IV for not taking up their cause even though we knew all along that spillover from EB1 to EB2 retrogressed countries was the right interpretation of the law. now some people are asking IV to take up an issue that is straight forward illegal as was clearly explained by DOS in a recent bulletin. instead of wasting time and efforts on such futile suggestions, people should concentrate on making some constructive effort along with IV helping every one involved in retrogression.
you must know something i don't.
aman kapoor is the president and founder of iv- of course you can argue he now has his GC but that fact is he is still the heart and soul of iv and runs the organization on a day to day basis. he is EB3.
the "core group" does not much exist in practical terms right now. there is instead a large "leaders group" that helps coordinate actions and strategy.
this group has a lot of active members- and i find it "comfortable" to say that the majority are EB3. which may actually count for something- since i actually do know somethings you don't :-)
no one stops anyone from doing anything. but whatever you do (and yes you actually have to DO, not just keep talking), has to have a sound basis. Many of the suggestions put forward have flaws, and actually papu and others have been pretty helpful in politely helping to point those out and suggesting changes. of course reddog took objection even to that! incidentally, just for the record, you may want to look at pappu's profile . HE IS EB3!
so what do you want anyway? should we go tell USCIS that leftover Gc from EB2 ROW should go to EB3 ROW instead of EB2 I/C? what about the 28.6% that should belong to EB2? and since you are EB3 I- how does this help you in any way? or should we tell them to stop the preference catogories in INA and make EB1=EB2=Eb3? somehow i do not think that is going to fly.
where were you when USCIS implemented vertical spillover in 2006 and left EB2 I in a U state while giving EB2 Gc numbers to EB3 ROW?
did you object then? did you start a campaign? did EB2 I folks here start saying that iv did not care about them?
in 2007 ordinarily, (like 06) EB2 I and EB3 I would have got only 2,800 GC each. because of iv's efforts in reversing the july bulletin, EB3 I got a huge number of Gc instead. many more than any other category. i don't remember anyone else standing up and saying that this was unfair and that iv is all about EB3I. and that's what a lot of anti iv folks say. that iv is all about EB3 India. so this is very ironical.
and i see here a comment that every campaign has been bad for EB3 india.
i guess july reversal was bad. i guess the campaign for recapture is bad. and the 2 year EAD is bad too. not to mention the gathering support to end country quotas.
you opened my eyes :-)

I don't know what the hell you are up to or you are expecting from IV? Remember they are just like you and me, feeling the pain of broken system. BUT, there is a difference
They stood up bravely to spread the word about all of us. Earlier no one in the capital hill spread the word for persons like you and me.
simple political equation why we (means IV) should also change the strategy. Need to work with someone much closer to Dem. Party and inner circles. I hope you are well educated enough to understand these kind of things. If not atleast do the following favour.
Send a PM to me and we WILL talk.
I'm not a core member,but a member though.
Hence i feel i also have responsibility to CLEAR some of your concerns and will do my best.
I'm a proud supporter of IV and will be.Kindly don't ever make bold statements. Your life is yours, but IV deserve some respect.
-------------------------------
Contributed so far more than $500
Signed up for recurring contribution of $50/Month
Introduced atleast 14 members so far.
ok, i am beginning to lose confidence now... first no i-485 relief and now wait till CIR>.....last year, CIR turned out to be a big circus....i hope this time something productive happens....
why are we changing lobbying firm? what do you mean it is a strategic decision?
are we dissatisfied with our lobbying firm? pm me if you can post on public forum..
but we need answers....this leadership is going nowhere now......
