I have followed the activity at this site for a few weeks now. The Indian community in the US is probably the most well to do and educated of all the minorities. Yet history repeats itself. Most are more concerned about esoteric subjects, nuclear treaties etc than the plight of the people here from their own country. If all the Indian community naturalized or not would stand up for this cause, people would listen. They would be forced to. But as always divided we fall. Somehow once this dash for permanent residence is over for people, they not only lose sight of their own struggle but also of the thousands of others involved. How many members on this site are actually green card holders or citizens?
I do hope that everyone here endeavors to contribute with the same vigor ever after he or she has obtained his permanent residence. Immigration will always be a struggle and all should be united for the people who will come and face this daunting task over the years.

I agree with you that this isn't just fair to people who are stuck in DOL. People who have been waiting for years together will continue waiting while people who got their PERM approved as recently as this year will file for 485. Where is the justice in this? I guess DOS & USCIS have no clue what they are doing as far as the PD's are considered. Couple of months back they had retrogressed as far as 2001 (EB3) & 2003 (EB2) and now they have all become current. How can this possibly happen?
Few of my friends purchased pre-approved labors paying thousands of dollars (which I don't approve anyways) and now they feel cheated having wasted the money for nothing.
I am happy that at least the recent applicants do not have to go through the ordeal which most of the members of IV had to deal with for few years now. My sincere hope is that they value their GC as much as people who have been stuck in this backlogs. It would be a very ungrateful of them, if they think that getting GC's is a piece of cake and it can be obtained in a year. I hope & pray that PD remains current for few more months so that people stuck in DOL have an opportunity to file their 485's soon.
Years we have been told priority date establishes your place in the queue.
We have spurned job offers and declined the new PERM process to hold on to the priority dates.
Many are still awaiting labor certifications from the backlog elimination centers. Out comes USCIS and says everyone with a LC can file I140 & I485.
People still waiting for LC with priority dates in 2003-2004 are seeing applicants who have priority dates as late as 2007 but with approved LCs through PERM walk through to I485.
Net result, USCIS is going to be flooded with applicants enough to retrogress the priority dates 3-4 years back as early as september. (Everybody with a LC will be able to file for I485 in July). So applicants with priority dates of 2007 are going to get EAD and GC, while LC backlogged 2003 applicants to have to wait for another 3-4 years before they can even file I485.
Aint fair. Aint fair at all. How can this be. How can rules be changed in the middle of the game.

Anurakt,
I have a couple fo friends who I got to sign up but they havent sent email to this list. How are we tracking those people.
I guess we need to get a count from core member... Pappu or logiclife ...Can we have a count from Paypal , but I am not sure how do we add people who are sending through the bank. The picture would be more clear after a month I guess.

I agree, this is the way politics works most of the time. lobby for votes, etc.
But isn't it also their job to do what is in the best interest of the Nation. Everything isn't decided by lobbies.
Maybe we're approaching this the wrong way, in trying to build competing lobby. it needs a new approach. Congress should be convinced in a different way.
Lobby is for optional, nice to have things, which will not be generally missed if they fail.
Legal immigration is none of these and is almost mandatory. Imagine losing for eg. 200K EB3s. another 50K doctors.
yes, they do think for the betterment of THEIR country. you and i don't fit in THEIR model of GOOD for their country.
your average low information "american" voter lacks the thought capability to process what you are saying.

FYI we never use the terms like EB2 or EB3 in our meetings with lawmakers.
Let me tell one example:
If 2 of our kids are sick , we'll concentrate on both of them for their recovery.If one gets recovered we'll concentrate more on other kid.Now EB2 is in good shape and EB3 is not , now it's time to concentrate more on EB3.

Hello,
I got my new passport yesterday. CGI houston have sent it via Fedex. They also returned my old passport. So over all it took 11 business days, which is fair and quick.
It would be great if they have tracking system in their website so that everyone can know their status since passport is a valuable doucment.
Thanks everyone for sharing their experiences and providing valuable suggestions.

So much so for this roller coaster ride. Here's the political trend I'm seeing for immigration related bills
If a senator introduces a immigration bill, Its put off until CIR. All immigration related bills should be together.
But, when CIR comes to discussion, everyone knows it would never get passed. Too much opposition.
Is this because of color. May be.

End of suspense drama
No immigration provisions with HR 2
http://www.immigration-law.com/
02/02/2007: Senate Passed H.R. 2 Without Immigration Reform Bills
* During the debate, the immigration reform bill introduced by Senator Kerry as Title VI was agreed to, but it appears that at the last minute the immigration reform bills were sliced off along with all other bills which are not related to the minimum wage in passing H.R. 2 at 5:00 p.m. by the Senate. We incorrectly reported the immigration bills were part of the H.R. 2 which the Senate passed yesterday. The final H.R. 2 bill passed by the Senate is expected to go to the Senate-House Conference committee.

Lets not get stuck in debating and talking all the new news about legislation being introduced, Skil/CIR. The most important thing is to create awareness about problems we are facing (EB immigrants).
Time again we have seen that because of low awareness amongst all the peoples-reps (congressmen, senators, all others) our provisions have been dropped at the last minute.
The need of the hour is to keep working together as a unified team, we all do a good job as a team. We have seen that during the lame duck and also before in May, 2006.
IV core as a team exactly knows what is best for all of us. We have to trust them and help them do their thing, meanwhile we can all concentrate on
1)raising awareness, writing op/eds. writing to editors
2) Inviting other people who are stuck like us (to be IV members). Strength is in the numbers.
3) Creating a huge fund to help lobby/or other such activity that we need it for.
Some new members might doubt the intentions and the commitment of the core team. Also it is very easy to be skeptical of people asking for funds. When I was new to the IV team, I had the intitial skepticism about people on the forum asking for funds and contributing. It took me a good 2 weeks of being a guest on the site to register and then another 10-12 days to give my first contribution. So from that standpoint, I know that new people on the forum are going to take some time to trust IV and have faith in the core leadership. All we can do is to get new members (So many thousands stuck in retrogression). New members inturn will become active in a short time, Bigger and stronger IV with a 10,000+ membership will ensure being noticed and also will have the required funds to make it happen this year.
Lets reach the target of 10000 members before the 31st of this month.

For those naysayers about lack of trust regarding where the money is going and what the details are, you can go to www.senate.gov and look for lobbying firms registration and their payment details. This is public information.

Now EB2 is also stucked at2003 Jan.
It took 11 months to move 8 days. When Eb3 get into retrogressionevery one started filing in EB2. I think if nothing comes relief like SKIL \ CIR better to stay wit EB3 - Mar 2004.
I think with in one year EB2 and EB3 wil get same priority dates.
It is upto you.
Hi,
Have a EB3 NON-RIR pending at BEC with PD: March 2004.
--Completed MBA in IT in may'06
Should I wait for the eb3 non rir to get approved or can I go ahead and file the EB2 in PERM from the same employer for a different job opportunity while eb3-non-rir is pending ?
thanks in advance,
GA

I am quite confused. My date is June 2002 first week .
Not sure if it makes sense to Port to Eb2 , but big uknown is how long it would take PD to move up to June 2002.
It could take 2 years at the earliest, more like 3-4 years. Do not quote me- this is just a guesstimate. Nobody knows. Better to file EB2 and interfile 140 & 485 using EB3 pd.
The best thing to do is to get involved with IV State chapters and advocate for change.

could it be true that only 23% of the folks who became current in May have got the approvals ? It almost the end of the month, I know that it need come in May but still...
or is it a case of people not bothering to come back here after the gety approvals -;)
Can someone start a thread for June approvals...
I know that June approvals will come only in June....but no harm in starting it and getting a count on how many are current starting june
I tried but was not sure how to setup a poll :rolleyes:
