We have been advised by our legal counsel to call the rep's directly. Emails and faxes are not very effective. They have not worked in the past. We have been there and done that
Can we put up something like this Nursing shortage bill appeal page to send email or fax to the related Senators or Congressmen.

If you want to file law suite, you should have done that long back.
You should have done it when PERM was brought into process. Also, there is nothing said in PERM process that people should not re-file.
But blaming the process just because every one is made current is wrong. If some one knew the know-how, and was in hands of a good employer, even people who came in 2007 are ready for 485.
The whole immigration system is messed up. It is sad to see people stuck in BEC suffer, but you all had every chance to re-apply and you have every right to be in front of perm people, so is it goes when USCIS is assigning numbers.
Also as posted by members, if all cases would be cleared by 2007 Sep, than you all have high possibility to be in the next VB, which could only be few months away. Also they might bring speed 140 back.

I am new to the site and have been reading these posts and I have very little knowledge regarding the greencard processing. But as far as I know, law is not clear in this matter and this results in different interpretations by different people. There is also little scope for any law suit as the State Dept is the ultimate decision maker in these issues. see section 202 of INA Act
"(B) 1/ Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit the authority of the Secretary of State to determine the procedures for the processing of immigrant visa applications or the locations where such applications will be processed"
>> Good find. I havent noticed this. I will check this. This appears to be be granting immunity against law suits, if not, at least, weakens the claim of lawsuit <<
Also it is not clearly explained if EB categories take preference or country limits have preference over EB categories. The State Department can clearly argue that EB2 is entitled for 28.6% of total EB visas and per country limit does not apply as EB2 category still has unused visas left for use this quarter and they intend to maximize the use of total EB2 visas available. I think we should all stop arguing(because in the end it will not change a thing) about who should get the first chance at Green card and pray for all those friends who have been waiting for years and sincerely hope that their wait ends soon. Instead we should concentrate on how we can help each other and see about how we can improve the process
Initially my understanding was per country limits do not apply only in the final Quarter and PD trumps everything else. How ever, the snip from Nov05 VB says that AC21 modified this and unused visa numbers in any calendar Q can be assigned with out per country limits. You are exactly right. Some one in the line has to get out so that the line moves and people get ahead.

Hi,
I am from Jordan and I attended the rally. 4 of my friends "who are Jordanian and have their citizenships already" drove from Chicago to attend the rally, but they got lost in Baltimore. They wish all of us all the luck and they support all of us 100%:)
That have been said and as I mentioned on another threat, I know 10 people from India who work with me and promised to meet me there, but no one of them attended, and I called them before the rally at their offices and all of them were there. I am very disappointed of them.:mad:

When you say these are the " ONLY REASONS", you should think twice. If your wife delivered baby on that day or if you had back surgery a week ago probably you would not be been in DC for the rally. So please dont generalize anything.I am not sure if the most efficient way to motivate people is to write bunch of threads with the words like the four you used many times.

Hi, I have a question about PERM labor process. How soon can an employer apply PERM labor certification after hiring an employee?
There is no statutory requirement on wait time. You may not even be an employee when your future employer files for your PERM as green card is for future job.
It's up to your company policies and your "persuasion skills!"

dear hydboy77, after reading your posts, I agree with another member -- that you have totally different goals and concerns from the pre-application of AOS. It would be the best to start a new thread for your concerns, and leave this thread soles for AOS pre-application.
Getting rid of semilar\same job requirement is going to be as easy or as difficult as getting prefiling AOS.
Getting rid of same\semilar job is not semilar to getting to green card. If you are a software person then you can put a restriction that you have to work in a software related job, in the same way if you a civil engineer then you should work in the civil engineering field. But the way USCIS does same\semilar job is job code match, responsibilities match etc etc etc, the problem with this is it is a very grey area, it is almost like doing labor all over again. It has not become that bad yet but it will sooner or later, how many H1b rfe\denials did you know in the last 2 years, I bet there are more H1 denials in the last 2 months than the whole of last 4 years.
I understand you are not being selfish but why would anybody want to use EAD instead of H1 other than for getting rid of visa stamping purposes. The overwhelming majority of people are going to use EAD to switch jobs because of layoff . When people are transfering H1b because of layoffs they are getting rfe\denial notices, when you move from H1b to EAD because of layoff USCIS might hit you with the same\semilar job rfe (when you file ac21, when previous employer revokes H1 or I140), that is my point.

Assuming no relief for immigration system as a whole, EB3 India will move forward substantially only during last quarter of the FY.
Rest of the times, it will be in 2001 or 1999 or even pre-immigration years. You never know.
The least preferred category among EB (taking the country tab in to account) is EB3 - India.
Isn't that a privilege to us?

while your I485 was in denied status did you work, did u have a backup H1.
I am curious to know if we need to stop working as soon as 485 is denied and wait till MTR goes thru.

Hi Prince,
I went thru posts on other forums with I 485 denials after 180 days of filing. In almost all the cases, people filed MTR and their I 485 was re-instated back to normal after that. You should be fine after filing the MTR with the help of attorney.
I know these 15-20 days will be hard for you. Hang on. I had the same experiance when there an RFE on my I 140.

Hi kate123, either it is a legislative fix or not, it's not up to us to decide. I saw the danger of our time and effort being sidetracked by trying to argue whether it's a legislative or administrative fix. The new secretary has made it clear that she is willing to push for BOTH Administrative AND Legislative fix if it's deemed necessary. Our goal should be bringing enough attention to her on the pre-application issue and convince her it's a meaningful change that will help both the DHS and the applicants, so she will push for changes. Please let me know if you agree.
desi3933,
I completely agree what you said and what is interpreted in the law.
BUT if they really go by law , JULY 2007 fiasco SHOULD never happen.
If you see my earlier post, author has clearly mentioned that "USCIS does not have to define "immediate availability" strictly on the cut-off dates listed in the Visa Bulletin."
Please refer paragraph 8 from:
http://www.ilw.com/articles/2009,0225-endelman.shtm
Well, again its up to CIS how they interpret the law... Atleast if we request them to allow pre filing they might go easy on this and allow us to file for AOS.
Thanks a lot

No one is talking about what happened in Apr-2001. Bill Clinton allowed all illegal aliens to file AOS in EB-3 category. That brought estimated 8-10 million filings in Jan-Apr 2001 under EB-3 category. That's why it took so long for EB-3 to get past Apr-2001. With EB-3 having a number cap, I still have a feeling that those estimated 8-10 million are still floating around in the system and dragging EB-3 category. Any thoughts on this?

I think the issue of Economic Stimulus Package and H-4 dependents is losing the momentum. Where is everyone????
I agree ---- I think the momentum is slowing down...
at least can we not take any legal action for issuing out a rule (you can file MFS and get the stimuls and then amend MFJ) on 04/14/2008??? what about people who filed a long time ago as MFJ?? Because once you filed MFJ, the action is irrevocable!?! In my honest opinion, this stupidity of issuing out a clause the day before filing deadline deserves some "stir"!!

Congratulations on working hard to figure out where I belong but too bad, it wasn't worth it nor will it ever matter to anyone where I belong!
You might want to ask ameryki to stop thread jacking before you blame me. I did not start any infighting nor did I start the Hindi topic! I just responded to a stupid post by ameryki and I sure as hell have every right to voice my opinions. If you don't like it, do what you will and move on!
I've got to make myself clear about my first reason though.
When I mean attitude of the people that speak it, I mean the attitude of those that speak it to me after I have politely mentioned in English that I do not know the language and yet those morons begin a lecture that I have to know the language because I am a citizen of the nation and it doesn't matter where I live. The constitution of India does not state that every citizen of India must know Hindi nor does it state that no matter where in the world an Indian lives, he must know Hindi to be an Indian citizen.
At the end of the day, no matter what anyone says or thinks of me, I still don't have one good reason to learn Hindi! Yet, I am a Proud Citizen of Indian and there is nothing that people like hpandey or ameryki can do about it! This is the truth and so will it remain!
@ snathan:
We're not alone and I'm sure that you'd agree that we're no less Indian citizens than anyone that speaks Hindi. What we type here isn't going to change the fact that we're treated differently by those Indian citizens who speak Hindi and most of those that speak it would never ever change their attitude toward us for not knowing it.
I've got better things to do than help hpandey or ameryki understand what it would feel like to be in our shoes and I ain't gonna bother. Like I have my opinion, they have theirs!
Cheers everyone! It is time for me to move on.

Now, the bad part ... the achilles heel of every high-skills amendment is the tethered H1B quota tricks. They are exempting everyone who has US masters or a non-US master in STEM from H1 quota, effectively making H1 quota = A LOT MORE.
The exact same radioactive provision for H1 quota is also in Lieberman-Hagel amendment 1242.
This will sink both of them unless either there is some inside deal going on that we dont know, or they strike out the H1 issue from this on the floor of the senate at the last minute and be content with H1 quota of 180,000.
I don't understand the risk you are mentioning. How unlimited H1B is going to cause problem in eliminating retrogression in EB catagories?
