vishwak,
I just got off the call from uscis regarding my I-485. My PD is in the first week of Mar 2006.
Per the USCIS website, they are suppose to process even the first week of Mar 2006 although the Aug VB says it is 01MAR06. I spoke to the second level IO and he was confident that my case would have to wait for the next month. I insisted that the uscis website says otherways, he went and verified with the third level (or his peer) and came back and told me that I was correct.
Infact told me that my case was pre-adjd and being reviewed by IO currently.
I am sure the same applies to you with the Sep VB. Good luck !!!
Note: This is not a legal advice and don't quote me on it.
How long does the IO usually take to review 485 cases (assuming that the case has been pre-adjtd.) ? Gurus...pls post your thoughts

I have been reading the CIR Bill (PDF file, dated April 24, 2006) from this website
http://www.nilc.org/immlawpolicy/CIR/index.htm#cira
Under Title VI - Work Authorization and Legalization of Undocumented Individuals.
I will just digest and summarise the interesting points:
For illegals who entered the USA before April 5, 2001...
Immediate Adjustment of Status after paying fines and any additional amounts
Must be employed for at least 3 years during the 5 year illegal presence
Employment requirement not applicable to those under 20 years of age
Employment requirement of 3 years can be reduced if proven physical or mental disability like pregnancy
Alien shall not be required to complete employment requirements with the same employer!
OK, I am not going to go on as I will leave the rest of the reading up to you all. But I need to ask this: "The adjustment of status" above... does this mean those illegals don't need to go thru LCA and I-140? Also, they don't even need to stay with the same employer at the time of applying for AOS....
Sounds like a very good deal for these people.
So could someone explain to me why we in the retrogression queue should accept this bill even if it increases H1B and promises to reduce backlogs for GC when illegals who have been here for more than 5 years (many of us also have been here that long) get special treatment? It's a really bad deal for us.

I am amazed by the effect the writer has had on stuckinmuck. More amazing is the fact that the writer validates his own point by claiming that he is with HR. Wonder how many real HR professionals reveal their company secrets.
Hi,
........... My point is if we check our credentials, how many of us are 'true' innovators? I know I am not, I am an expert in what I do and am an asset to my company but I haven't filed any patents or publications which would be the true requirement for this country. My skills are indeed readily available in domestic workers as well. Could that be the reason for the backlog in EB-3 and none in EB-1? So do we need to do a reality check here? Just wondering if this could be the reason why we're getting a raw deal. Could it be that 'highly skilled' is not enough but 'genius' and 'highly skilled' is what's required here? Just a thought.

04/28/2007: Sen. Hagel's Immigrant Accountability Act of 2007, S.1225, and Point System for Legalization
The Senater has released the skeleton of this bill that provides for legalization of illegal aliens as part of his Comprehensive Immigration Reform legislation proposal. This is a companion bill to his High-Tech Worker relief proposal. Supposedly, S. 1225 is to cover the illegal immigration issues and the High-Tech worker relief bill is to cover the legal immigration issues.
It is uncertain the point system the House Judiciary Subcommittee is scheduled to have a hearing on 05/03/2007 is limited to the legalization legislation or overhaul of the total immigration system. If it is limited to the legalization, we would not necessarily oppose to the idea, but it involves overhaul of the entire immigration systemn, we would strongly oppose to such point system.
The point system which Senator explained in the press release in S. 1225 includes the following:
� Military Service (after meeting initial qualifications for adjustment)
� Advanced English proficiency
. Civic Engagement � significant community service work (religious or secular), a clean criminal record, and on time payment of income taxes for past work
� Business ownership (which employs at least 2 unrelated �legal� workers)
� Home ownership
� Work History (points for each year of work an alien can prove) (Like Hagel/Martinez)
� Education (additional points for all levels of education)
� U.S. Presence (points for length of time in the U.S.) (Like Hagel/Martinez)
� U.S. Citizen/Permanent Resident Spouse or minor child
(A)Basic Points FACTOR POSSIBLE POINTS
Work :The range of points is based on the number of years a person has worked in the U.S. (Up to 5 points per year possible.) 15-30
Education :An alien may earn minimal points for primary school, additional points for high school or obtaining a GED, or skilled trade license. 15-30
Family: A person may earn points for having a U.S. citizen child; additional points may be awarded for a U.S. citizen/legal resident spouse. 10-20
English: The range of points is based on level of proficiency - the more fluent, the more points. 5-15
Civic Engagement :Points may be earned for community service, having no criminal or civil infractions, and on time payment of taxes. 5-20
U.S. Presence: The range of points is based on the number of years a person has lived in the U.S. (Up to 5 points per year possible.) 10-12
Total Possible Points: Specific point values will be determined by regulation. 60-127
An alien must earn 65% of available Basic Points to eventually qualify for a green card and citizenship.
(B)Extra Credit Points :Extra points may be awarded to those immigrants who have made exceptional contributions. FACTOR POINTS
U.S. Military Service :Points for being eligible for honorable discharge. Up to 20
Business Ownership :Points awarded if business is sustained for 18 months and alien employs at least 2 non-relative employees. Up to 10
Advanced Education: Points for college degree or advanced degree. Up to 15
Home Ownership :Up to 5
Other Circumstances: There will be factors that we are unable to anticipate at this time. These factors, and the points to assign to them, are at the discretion of the Secretary of Homeland Security. Up to 20
The Senator is expected to release the summary of his bill. The full text of the bill will also be published sometime next week. Please stay tuned. Until that time, please refer to the Senator's presss release.

Guys:
We all are aware of the phenomenal progress that IV has achieved in just 3 months. Like any grassroots organization our success is dependent on the wholehearted support we get from our members.
The road is long and hard. I am sure all our hard work is going to pay off. This is not the time to get impatient or frustrated. Remember we are all in this together. Let's be patient and wait for things to unfold.
Thank You.

Infopass appt for Interim EAD was not helpful at all.
They suggested the same that I did earlier, ie to fax USCIS hotline about my situation along with letter from emp saying that I am at risk of losing job.
I have done that several times, still no luck.
My EAD expires on aug 30th (yah, just 2 more business days).
Did everything in my hands, now just prepared to lose my job.
Surprising thing is I saw 2 soft LUDs on aug 25th and and 26th but still no approval nor RFE, case status still pending.
I know they are looking at my case, but doing nothing.
My wife's EAD was approved a month ago.
I asked my lawyer (from a big firm) if I will have a case on USCIS in case if I lose my job. She said, USCIS is famous for this kind of processing for 1000's still the cases wont stand against them.
I wld appreciate any suggestions/thoughts?
You can check your senator's website. There will be some information on how to contact them. I think usually, they have someone in their front office who takes care of this request.
I requested to expedite and i got an email last week saying the request was accepted and will get result within 14days.. its been already 10 days and so far nothing happened.
Did the email you received specifically say that your request has been accepted and you will know the decision within 30 days?

Thanks! That's helpful... from what you say, sounds like PD is still quite important. RD comes into the picture only after the PD becomes current. However, if a range of PD's are current, then they would sort those by RD and not by PD.
For eg, if they move the dates forward by a year, and Jan 04 and Jan 05 are both now current, a person with PD of Jan 05 but an earlier RD would still get processed prior to an application with PD Jan 04 and a later RD (according to the FIFO principle)...
you are right there but USICS does not follow any principle so in your range person with Jan 05 PD could be last (Decorator pattern).

On a lighter note- "motorize"... at the DMV?
Guys,
One quick question. Appreciate your response!
If I submit my application in person, do we need to motorize the copies?
For address proof, submitting DL copy.
Please let me know.

I cant tell you how much i was moved by the momentum that got generated during the 'black' weekend before christmas. One can tell the excitement and enthusiasm among the sufferers in this community. I wholly appreciate the efforts taken in setting up this site and following up on the issues. We need to generate the same kind of membership as we saw during that weekend.
One question i have and many others like me would be interested in knowing is a clear description on how the money collected will be spent. I understand by reading your posts that it will be totally transparent and will be detailed out every week. But its more important for people to know before hand on how and why money is needed, before they can open up their purses generously. Also please take this question in a positive attitude as more people would know the actual reasons.

Fantastic Job folks.
This is absolutely fantastic. An article on the frontpage of Washington Post dedicated to IV. I'm sure the opponents must be cringing in their seats and biting their finger nails.
We sure do need more members to contribute to sustain this level of intense involvement.

If your argument is that after holding a US Masters , OP will not be a legit EB2 applicant, even you are not legit. Go get some education
Looks like you are also a candidate with three year bachelors degree and a namesake masters from US univ that you bought and which put you in EB2.
Legit EB2 = GRE (good Score) + Toefl (good score) + Fulltime MS/MBA + Job in forture 500
Not legit EB2
1. 3 year degree from India + initial application in EB3 that is later converted into eb2 by buying a masters from some shady roadside univ in the US.
2. bachelors + 5 years experience from some software company in hyderabad, as most people from there have at least 10 years software exerience even if they graduated 4 years ago.
I am sure you fall in one of the two later categories.
