to get the receipts. Lets not bug them and have them work instead on receipting. With over 500K+ applications, it'd be a while to get the reciept..
oops did i mention EAD/AP..ur gonna have to wait a really long time on that one.
I guess Phone answering people job is to answer the phones(not receipting), correct me if I am wrong.

After I heard from the Infopass IO that my case is all set and it is sitting in the NSC examination room, I have been trying my best to get my file to the attention of an IO at NSC. This is what I have done till now. Don't know if this would work. If not, what the heck?
1. Wrote to my state's senators
2. Wrote to Ombudsman
3. Wrote to my Congressman
4. Wrote to the President
5. Have opened a SR
6. My attorney is taking an Infopass appointment to see why it is stuck.
We 2004 guys are really out of luck. First BEC, then all these LC substitutions, July 2nd fiasco, and now this. Can't believe we got screwed in all the steps.
I also think the same way. Life is so much unjust. (USCIS adds to this injustice)

Members: can you request IV to endorse this ... more than 100 people are waiting to get hear 'YES' from core...

thank you
It'll be nice if the core endorsed it. We members do contribute and participate in all campaigns when core asks. It'll be great if the core lets the ideas bubble up from members too! That'll make it a two way street.

Dude nothing will happen, this was lost and last battle.
The problem is us, yes "us". Most of us come to check whats on the website and then make sure we stay abreast with it. No one wants to work etc mile except making stupid phone calls and sending faxes.
NOTHING WILL HAPPEN Because we are DESIS
All the people who got EAD's act as if " I don't care now, I got EAD " I have spoken to few Indians and this has been their response.All these suckers are good for what? You all got EAD, congrats you sit on your bud and wait for years. We all have seen how the bulletin is working.
Illegals are better than us at least they are united and they are actively involved.
We need the IV core team and the administrator to guide some big rally's. Guys nothing will happen until we are bold about our intentions.
I noticed everyone comes up with their different ideas, but no one works to implement it. We need to stand together and do something big, when was the last time we had a big rally?
And how many people actually showed up? Desi's wants everything fast and free.
One of the reasons friends of mine from IV have left being disappointed.
Yes 2007 was a milestone for a few people, but a disaster for people like us, who had PD in 07, had July fiasco not happened we could have seen some positive movement, rather being put on a swing ------------------ go front----------------------- go back.
So all the junior and new members until you guys quantitatively plan something big and real, nothing will happen. We all have our own problems, life in America is not simple, but in order for us to accomplish something we all need to unite and do something big, the problem is lately IV thinks too much and has less of ACTION
All new members need to take a more active role in order to succeed and continue this effort for a long time for future immigrants.
I do not think having an EAD is a cause of inaction. It is more about having confidence in the effort that their effort will truly help them and everyone else like them. They can get confidence only when they get involved and get in the thick of things and see for themselves how things work. I have heard people calling USCIS every other day finding their status if they just get an LUD. People take infopass just to find out their name check status. So why can't these people make calls to lawmakers and take an appointment to meet their lawmakers.
Until some time back people were by and large afraid to even write to lawmaker offices. But when their case was stuck in namechecks, they wrote to everyone including WH. So why cant we write letters during an action item? We need to think like a community and not as an individual in need of a greencard. An individual cannot achieve anything alone but a voice of thousands can do a lot.
We should feel happy that there is an immigration voice that is a voice of this community. It is not a lawyer forum created for a lawyer's publicity or a forum managed by any business interest to make profit off this community. The aim here is to get people relief from their immigration problems and IV resources are utilized for the community. People need to adopt IV as their place to go for all immigration related discussions and data from IV tracker and visit this site more often and try to get involved. Remember that just by visiting this site frequently, you are helping this effort in some ways.
Until IV was there, people were scared to post freely about employers, lawyers, USCIS, lawmakers etc. People were not willing to come out in the open with their real names for some unknown fear. But when Immigration voice came, everyone starting gaining confidence and did not have any fear. You can see that from the kind of posts we see these days on the forums. Such posts never existed 2 years ago.
This in itself is an achievement for immigration voice and this community. We have generated so much awareness about this cause that never existed few years ago. Legal immigration was only about H1B quota. After the sucess of July I485 filings last year we were able to get the 2 year EAD rule this year due to the admin fixes campaign . So let us not measure our successes and failture with a bill. There is a lot else we have acheived in the last couple of years.
We can look forward to a lot more if we all continue to work positively and involve more people in this effort and on this website.

Look at it this way -- An additional quota means more regular EB visa's to go around which will help all. Asking to give 20k more GC's for US Graduates will sound more easy on the ears than asking for a general 20k increase.

We are putting together a list of recommendations about this data for our next meeting with USCIS. If you have suggestions, do post on the thread. We would also be updating this report on regular basis as the data is updated on USCIS site and numbers change due to approvals/pre-adjudication/field office data/ CP and spillovers. The visa bulletin movements will also be compared against the report and checked with USCIS and DOS.

Just a small addition to your point 4.
MTR allows you to work. Usually an MTR is supposed to be filed within 33 days after you have recieved your denial. As soon as the USCIS recieves your MTR (which is your I290B form), they issue a notice number. This number allows you to work. The only time you are not technically allowed to work is the time since you recieved the denial notice till you recieve your I290B notice number.
1. Your old employer can revoke your I-140, however they cannot do anything to your I-485 application. Technically this should not matter since you are eligible for AC-21 (greater than 180 days, same or similar job).
2. Unfortunately, for one reason or another USCIS has been mistakenly issuing immediate denials (no NOID or RFE - just straight denial) for people with revoked I-140s.
3. After the I-485 denial, the process involves filing an MTR to explain to the USCIS that your case should be portable based on the AC 21 law, Yates memo etc.
4. If you do not have H1b, and are solely dependent on EAD, then you should technically not work when I-485 gets denied. However, there are 2 schools of thought out there: one school believes not to work since the 485 is denied, and another school believes to work since EAD was not explicitly revoked, and since you believe USCIS wrongly denied your I-485. Also, the latter school argues that since your MTR would be opened withing 2-3 months, you can accrue less than 180 days presence, and use 245k to seek pardon for that. Its all about the risk appetite of the new company and their lawyers.
5. Based on my research, it looks like MTR is taking anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months, with the latter being more likely due to the increase in MTRs lately. My advice here will be to discuss all these options with your new employee, to see what their thought is. Obviously, if you feel they will tell you to go home, and won't keep the job open for 2-3 months, then it might make sense to either find another employer who will be willing to file H1b, or stay put.
6. I invoked AC 21, moved on EAD, and got denied last week. I had done all my research, and got guarantee from prior company that they would not revoke I-140. I called them after i got the CRIS email and they said they had not revoked I-140. So i am still waiting for Denial Notice to see reason why.
Bottom line, AC 21 comes with risk, and you have to be ready to ride the wave, if things are to get delayed or you are to be out of work for some time. If there was anything I could have done differently, I would have REALLY forced new employer to file H1b on my behalf. I feel i laid down too easily on this request after my previous company said they would not revoke I-140. I did ask the legal team of the new company, and they said no. I should have discussed with my bosses, since they really wanted me, and would have probably overriden the legal team.

I spoke to a staff at Michael R. McNulty's office.
He comes to Albany on weekends only.
Rest of the time (5 days a week) he is in Washington.
We can meet staff members any time betwenn 9 to 5 (no appointment required).
Spoke to staff member at Schumer's office.
He is not available for a meeting.
Have set up a meeting (with staff) for 12th April 11am (nothing available for next 2 weeks).
I was actually just trying to find out if we could schedule an appointment with Schumer. Did not expect them to set up an appointment on the phone so fast.
We can change if this is not convenient.
I am not sure if this is gonna help, as it is 2 weeks away.
Please provide feedback.
I will go home and review what can be done, tonight. Great, lets coordinate on this.
Great we already have 4 members.

Anybody Travelled with only Advance Payrole through Frankfurt recently please post ?
where they will check for transit visa in usa while boarding or in frankfurt or in india while return ?
My nationality is Indian. Presently i am residing in USA . I have " Advance Payrole Document " . I am planning to travel in this February 2011 from " Atlanta -> Frankfurt -> India(Hyderabad) " and return is in May 2011 from " India(Hyderabad) -> Frankfurt -> Atlanta " in lufthansa airways.
So shall i go for this round trip with a valid " Advance Payrole Document " only ? or i need to have " Air Transit Visa ? If i need Air transit Visa could you please let me know how to apply and what documents i need to submit .
please help already buyed tickets from lufthansa website. non refundable ticket. before that one time i cancelled ticket. airport transit visa shall we apply by post/mail ? in person cant go because very far totally 30 hors drive that too with infant driving not possible . please help ?
While pending i-485 if i applied for German airport transit visa is there any negative concerns because of that ?
Please reply soon . I really appriciate you . Thank You.
I went to India in 1st week of Dec and returned Jan 1st through Lufthansa(Frankfurt), and both ways, no transit visa was asked for or checked for either before boarding/check-in or in Frankfurt. On the way to India, they just make sure you have a Indian visa(or passport) and on way back, they just check if you have US visa(or AP). Don't worry too much, believe me, it is more of an embarrasment for Lufthansa ,in front of several hundreds of travellers, to deny boarding to someone without transit visa. If they do it, they know they would get free negative publicity that would erode their traveller base for years .

"Maybe" CNN is being directed by some political pressure from the Govt? This is my opinion.. :eek:
Its all about ratings. Fox is beating CNN in viewership levels. CNN has thus found a niche following for anti-immigrant issues (a conservative matter) and through which is hopes to direct some viewer numbers to its side.

EB3-I is a lost hope, i dont think there will be any movement for next 2-3 years. Year 2001, 2002 and 2003 had 185K H1Bs and even if we assume 100K being used by India and all of them applied for GC -(half of them in EB3 to be optimistic). The number would be 50K/year just primary applicants. So, to advance from 2002 with 50K applicants would take---you can guess. There are only ~4000 visas/year for EB3 India.
Yeah I can understand... Well certain things defy logic.... Hope is all life is about :)
