Reading from this thread and few other, it is confirmed that in most cases, even if PD is current for a 485 filer, USCIS may not adjudicate those cases unless the processing time is reached. (There are few lucky applicants with PD 2005 and filed 485 after July 2nd and have already received their GC - but that is very few).
And most centers, they are processing Dec 2006 485 applications - a backlog of 10 months.
So, assuming that it may take same 10 months to process 485 filed in July - that is May 2008!!
With this, what are the chances of DOS making PD current for all EB categories again next June? They will do this to use all the VISA numbers for FY2008.
Or, if they don't want to repeat the confusions that happened in July 2007, to what dates will the PDs move (in June/July 2008)? Atleast to 2006?
http://www..com/usa-immigration-trackers/i485-tracker1
Go to and filter Application Status = Approved, sort by USCIS Received Date. You will see lot of approvals for people who had RD in 2007.
So it seems like if your PD is current, USCIS would look at your case even if it was sent after their processing dates.

- It was a historic event, in a historic and scenic location with plenty of symbolism about what America represents - the Washington Monument to the Capitol, and the lobby day, reception (both of which I missed thanks to my flight delay) and press conferences at the Rayburn building.
- An excellent opportunity to get our voices heard where it matters - in D.C.
- Meet fellow IV members!
- Great photo opportunities
- Stories most of us will cherish for the rest of our lives and share with our children & grand children
- Last but not the least, it's always a pleasure to see an intelligent, calm, restrained leader like Aman Kapoor leading the effort in all his selflessness (he already got his green card a while ago). Proud to be a part of an org led by you Mr. Kapoor!
- And before I forget - another incredible selfless person, Ms. Tamsen!
- Plenty of others - too long a list to mention, you know who you are!
Had some down sides as well, but I'll keep this a fun thread... :)

BharatPremi,
Can you shed some more light on consular processing? I have 140 cleared and am already in AOS and possibly in NC. Is it possible to "jump fence" now or is it too late?
Short answer is "NO".Assuming direct filing in consular Process, in general it takes less time (for most clear cases around 6 months to 9 months) with comparison to AOS. But that pattern was of old times. Consular processing also has to follow Visa Bulletin. Second factor also need to be considered is what ratio is for consular processing. If 10 % of total EB3 + 2 cases might have gone to consular processing then again those US visa offcies will also be overwhelmed. Seeing July-August load ,this time it is very hard to predict consular processing. But just sake for the argument if my prediction for future visa bulletin will become correct then MOST EB3 - 2003/4-consular processing filers will definately get their GC before December 2008. That surely can not be predicted for AOS seeing namecheck etc.
Note: After some time (2008 end) you will also see fence jumpers (AOS to
consular)as people will hear fast "initial" approvals from consular
processing.

I can fully understand your frustration as I am also going through the same situation.
How did you contact congressman?
I dont remember the URL..just google locate your congressman..
And enter your zip code, it will show you your congressman..just call them up, there will be someone looking after immigration matters.

This confirms what IV had found from the State department and posted on the donor forum a month ago

Hello Pappu
You said you will post update in general forum after month in donor forum. Where is that initiative ? Still it is locked. Is IV only interested in donors only ?

Guys, Please do not ridicule saralayar. he has raised a very valid point. We are so involved with the GC issue that we are not able to think beyond that. I do agree with the fact that IV is so preoccupoed with GC crisis that there is no point (or bandwidth) to raise citizenship issue. I have seen so many of my friends who came with me in US 8 years ago and are citizens by now but I am still struggling with GC with no hope in site. Sometime, I think, by the time, I will get GC (if I), they will become sr citizen :) it feels very bad but cant help it.
I agree. We could try for some reduced wait time towards citizenship for people whose GC applications are backlogged or those facing years of retrogression. A good starting point would be to write to Ombudsman with this suggestion. Although this is not an administrative fix it would be good to highlight this furhtur at Ombudsman level.

Did you apply for your 485? Your profile does not show that it has.
The date on which your 485 is filed is the order on which the applications are processed.
your PD is only used to say whether an application is eligible for processing. Once it is eligible, it is the 485 application date that states your position in the queue.
If this is true then my wait will be longer:(

When every one send individual letter, they will read the first one and then will just ignore others. Because the content and issue is same. When we 50+ people send one neatly drafted letter...I am sure it will draw considerable attention. Ron is willing to help us. I am not sure if we need to hire him for this. If so, how many of you ready to share the expense.

Here is what my attorney recommended-
1. Get a "Non-Available Certificate" from the municipality
2. Get 2 people to provide affidavit (close relatives) in support of your birth date.
Hope this is helpful. Check with your attorney too.
Really appreciate your time in answering my question.

Thanks for the post, i am interested too, i am not a pattern day trader but a normal trader as of now.
Could you please post how this has affected your tax return filings, do we need to do something extra while filing tax returns if one is a pattern day trader?
Also it suggest that there should be minimum equity balance of 25K, are they referring to the value of stocks...
Yes as you said i too was thinking about it, there is only so much one can earn because in my situation i cannot shift employer, nor does the current one pay me enough or is willing too, so we all must look at alternate sources of income (but take our own risk and decision)....
I started trading with sharebuilder recently.... and they did give me a 50$ coupon to start with...
As pappu said, yes we need to share such info with our fellow folks so that everyone gets benefitted and if we make money we can contribute atleast a small part of it to IV.... (win-win for all).
There is so much information to share....
Hello All,
I found a unique way to cope with the stress of our immigration nightmare.
I always feared that this long wait to get the status issue settled would kill the entrepreneurial spirit that I have. The burning desire to do my own thing.
I have been trading stocks for the past 4 years or so now but just recently got interested in PDT - Pattern Day Trading (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_day_trader) (Clickable)
I have found it very interesting as well as rewarding in terms of fulfilling the urge to do something more than what I am doing right now.
It is not easy and it is not for the weak hearted but the rewards are wholesome and tremendous.
I would like people who are interested to "PM" me or post replies here so we can exchange ideas
IMP NOTE: Trading stocks is a type of investment so It is perfectly legal to do so. You do not even require an EAD to do so .
No doubt that if you do have EAD you can trade as business entity as well.
Last but not the least
Do not forget to to keep the momentum up at IV and do donate to IV as often as you can .
Now lets Play !!!!!:cool:

So the 15 month FP validity is also a bogus. Yours seem to be a straightforward and non-transferred case....it is good to see choronological approvals than random.

And check out my signature - finding your state chapter and becoming a member is easy. I have had this for over a year now
regarding the state chapters
this is what i found on the page following your link
State: Southern California
Name: Santhi Boppana
IV handle: santb1975
Leaader Name: Pancham
IV handle: prp925
Leader Name: Puneet
IV handle: Paskal
State Group email/URL: SC_Immigration_Voice : Southern California Immigration Voice (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sc_immigration_voice)
At first i thought there was no state chapter for California. Only after searching the page for the word "california" did i find the ones for Southern California and Northern California
which are not states but just different parts of California.
Was i supposed to magically just guess that it is listed this way...or am i a moron who just does not understand this simple thing?

Each Passport is unique and will have different number each time they issue.. Just staple all your passports together and carry with you for travel.
Hi Guyz,
I just realized that the newly renewed passport has a different number than the original one. It is by choice or by chance ?
Thanks

I might be wrong, but I read somewhere that these numbers would go to those working in math or science related fields AND who had graduated with a related degree in the last 5 years.
Again, I'm not 100% on it, just wanted to check if anyone else heard the same.
