    Report back

    Two people from the CA group met the Constituent Services Manager at the Congresswoman's office. The staffer was very familar with Immigration issues, and the functioning of backlog elimination centers. It was a fascinating meeting at a very personal level with good exchange of views. It is good to remember we meet as individuals with our own histories, struggles and successes.

    On IV goals

    There was more agreement on some of IV's goals than others. For example it might be easier to "Automatically recapture unused EB Visa number from previous year." That goal may have better chance to win out. So we may need to move this item up. So in terms of priority, starting with what the staffer agreed with, Iv's priorities would something like this.

    1. Transparency of DOL-BEC and USCIS functioning.

    2. Automatically recapture unused EB Visa Numbers from previous years.

    3.Convert all 1 year extensions of H-1B, EAD, and Travel Document (Advance Parole) of applicants in backlog to 3 year extension.

    4. Ability to file I-485 even without Visa Number availability

    5. Allow applicants with advanced degrees from the US, or who have worked for more than 3 years in the US on H-1B, to automatically apply for adjustment of status without regard to EB annual limit.

    6. Eliminate dependents from EB annual limit.

    7. Increase EB annual limit.

    We shared the Ombudsaman's report and the couple of pages from the President's economic report of 2005. They were both very useful. It was the first time the staffer had seen the Ombudsman's report. The staffer wanted to use these at at a meeting she is attending :) Thank you IV team, especially Berkeley Bee for ferreting out key bits of information.

    On speeding up Labor certification

    When one of us said congress's intention for LC is 21-60 days, the staffer replied that was before 911. How can we make this happen and speeded up the work in PBEC/DBEC?

    The staffer also mentioned that a lot of time is spent on "background check" and mentioned it was suggested it might be better for FBI to do it. But of course the FBI had other things to do and that suggestion didn't fly.

    One of us mentioned the clogging due to 245-i. LCs could be speeded up -- if the paper work of those on the 245-1 (Apr.,25,2001) track is different from us, then could those be handled differently/ in another place to speed up our LCs in PBEC and DBEC.

    Finally, the staffer will let the congresswoman know our concerns.

    thanks

    I personally think Mr. MPADAPA's assumption is wrong. Last year (2008), the spillover came from Family quota of 2008. Spillover from Family or Employment quota of a particular year cannot be given to the following year. So the fact that there is nothing left from the family quota of 2008 doesn't change any situation here.

    So, this year the spillover that Employment category can get from Family quota will be the unused numbers of 2009 Family quota.
    This is just my thought!

    DOS recently released the visa usage statistics for FY 2008 (http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/FY08-AR-TableV.pdf). For once USCIS managed to use up all the visas allocated for the year. Kudos to USCIS :D But it comes with a price for EB folks. For the past few years, forward movement of PD during the last months of the FY has been propelled due to the spillover of unused FB visa's from prior year. Remember last year almost 23k FB visas got spilled over to the EB limit and caused significant forward movement of PD's for EB2 I/C. Unfortunately in 2008 USCIS used up all of the FB visa's, hence there will be no visa's to spillover:mad: I had consolidated the visa usages in the past few years, Here is a link to the document (http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=p_liYSUcqZRXA9OjuWUNRag&hl=en). The document has hyper link to the source for all the data.

    If you are EB3 I/C and wondering why dates didn't move in 2008. Here is the answer,
    EB3-C and EB3-I got 1,985 and 3,576 visa's respectively. With such kind of visa allocation there is no doubt about why the dates aren't moving.

    If you are EB2 I/C and dreaming that somehow the new spillover would take care of things. You might be pleasantly surprised by the usage of EB1 and EB2-ROW in 2008. Last year many were dreaming that all of the 23K FB visa's would directly go to EB2-I/C but the data shows otherwise. EB2-C and EB-I got 6,967 and 14,819 visa's respectively for the entire 2008. If all the 23K visa's were used by EB2-I/C then their respective numbers would have been much higher.

    Bottom line: Without significant change in the EB limit through recapture or increase in EB limit. The forward movement of PD will be a trickle atleast for the rest of the year. We can pray and do whatever before every bulletins, but the numbers cannot lie and hence the bulletins would be a disappointment (for many) until we grasp the reality.

    Let us get our acts together and start working together towards some constructive actions like a bill or an amendment. Let us have a healthy debate on what needs to be done.

    Do we have to attach photographs when we e-file for AP ?

    For E-filing AP, you dont get any Finger Printing, so you have to send 2 photographs with your application.

    Please make sure you write your name and Alien Number (A#) on the back of the photographs.

    I hope this helps.

    GO IV GO.

    The bill states failing to show evidence of your immigrant status, is a misdemeanor and will result an arrest. So this is going to trouble a lot legal residents to prove they are legal and there will be a lot of litigation as a result of this.


    See how Mr. Blog feed has omitted the fact that this law is against "unauthorized alien". To a casual observer it would appear that IV supports such endeavors (promoting illegal immigration).

    Hey Bozo - I've been following IV for about 2 years now using my spouse's ID - I just created one for myself today - My wife and I have contributed to IV also. Know the facts before shooting your mouth off - NUT JOB!!!

    Why not to use that very same ID you have been using for 2 years to post this one also? That way others will know you have been a member and also contributed in the past. No confusion and peace.

    Please refrain from pushing OP to post employer details on public forum. Let it be OP�s weapon of surprise. I wish OP has contacted an attorney for fighting his case. If this is going to be an out of court settlement, then we shouldn�t expect complete details as well. OP's story should be an eye opener for all of us(Employees and Employers).

    Read the two stories for break.

    THE BEST LAWYER STORY SO FAR

    One afternoon a lawyer was riding in his limousine
    when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass.
    Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got
    out to investigate.

    He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?"

    "We don't have any money for food," the poor man
    replied. "We have to eat grass."

    "Well, then, you can come with me to my house and I'll
    feed you," the lawyer said.

    "But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They
    are over there, under that tree."

    "Bring them along," the lawyer replied. Turning to the
    other poor man he stated,

    "You come with us, too."

    The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, "But
    sir, I also have a wife and SIX children with me!"

    "Bring them all, as well," the lawyer answered.

    They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even
    for a car as large as the limousine was.

    Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the
    lawyer and said, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for
    taking all of us with you."

    The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love
    my place. The grass is almost a foot high


    STORY 2:

    Mom comes to visit her son Kumar for dinner.....who lives with a girl
    roommate Sunita. During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't
    help but notice how pretty Kumar's roommate was. She had long been
    suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more
    curious.

    Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she
    started to wonder if there was more between Kumar and his roommate than
    met the eye.

    Reading his mom's thoughts, Kumar volunteered, "I know what you must be
    thinking, but I assure you, Sunita and I are just roommates." About a
    week later, Sunita came to Kumar saying, "Ever since your mother came to
    dinner, I've been unable to find the silver plate. You don't suppose
    she took it, do you?" Kumar said,"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure."


    So he sat down and wrote :

    Dear Mother:

    I'm not saying that you 'did' take the silver plate from my house, I'm
    not saying that you 'did not' take the silver plate.. But the fact remains
    that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.

    Love, Kumar


    Several days later, Kumar received an email from his Mother which read



    Dear Son:

    I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Sunita, and I'm not saying that
    you 'do not' sleep with Sunita. But the fact remains that if she was
    sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the silver plate by now
    under the pillow...

    Love,
    Mom.



    Lesson of the day:
    Don't Lie to Your Mother...........especially if she is Indian !

    Thank you prabasiodia.

    So, the people who filed 485 let's say during July 2007, MAY change jobs when they start receiving GCs during 2010? Is this correct?
    I think these memos might have been dissected a thousand times, but here they are:

    Continuing validity of I-140: http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/I140_AC21_8403.pdf
    AC21 guidelines: http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/AC21intrm051205.pdf

    It's clear that the stress is on "intent". If at the filing of I-485, both the employer and the employee had the intent, it's fine. The only restriction is, one may not be looking for "same or similar" job at the time of I-485 adjudication. Why this restriction is even there is beyond me. It doesn't clearly state how much time after the adjudication, you should not be looking.

    Of course, the lawyers seem to be on the cautious side. Read the last sentence under intent in the following site (AC21: Changing employer while waiting for pending adjustment of status (http://www..com/greencard/adjustmentofstatus/changing-employer.html) ). It says that ...theoretically, USCIS might be able to revisit the adjudication of I-485 and initiate revocation processing.
    This inference is without any attribution.

    Then again, I couldn't find a single case where the I-485 was revoked because of suspected fraud in "Intent". We do need clarification from USCIS on this.

    Saburi,

    please be more precise. when you transfered and when did you file your 485 with company A or B.

    I TRansfered my H1 B Visa first time in the August 2006 from Company A (GC Sponsering Company) to Company B.

    Everything went good.

    Last year in March i did transfered my H 1 B to Compnay C from Compnay B

    and i July last year i applied for my I 485, and got my EAD in Sep 2007.

    Now the total 180 days have been passed am i eligible for AC21 and if yes then what are the formalities to get AC21.

    Also Compnay A has told me earlier that they will revoke my I 140 but i do not have any means to know wether they did revoke or not, how do i know if they revoked my I 140 is there any way to find this out.

    Your Help Will be a big Help for me

    Me too.

    I added some facts about how much I paid in SSN, Medicare, Fed and State taxes (in the last 10 years that I have been here) as well as some detail about what I'm contributing (patent pending) to this country. Another thing I mentioned was about my volunteering during the 2008 campaign (implying that I would be voting for the president's party if I ever become a US citizen in 2050 :~).

    Thank you, MMJ, for taking the initiative.





    I also sent my letter to WH today.
    Good job MMJ.

    We guessed you were lying to us when you said you do not sing! You should have joined us... we would have then sung the song that only you and the other singer/guitarist know (besides Digital2k) know. BTW, the guitarist was Dr Saurabh although I don't know his IV handle.

    It's the beginning of this weekend, but let me rewind things to the last weekend. I received a call from Paskal while I was walking into "Costco", when he told me about his idea of having me and someone else sing and keep folks entertained before the rally. He connected me to Saurabh, and it felt really nostalgic when Saurabh and I rehearsed the song over the phone... somewhat like how two friends would do it in college.

    Then on the day of the rally, we knew we had to rehearse with our guitars, and we also knew we would have to, first of all, tune our guitars to one another. But to our sweet surprise, our guitars were already tuned:) We then went a few feet away from the registration booth, and began practising... but something funny happened.

    One of the airfare beneficiaries came to me and said hello. We stopped playing and exchanged hellos, and chatted for 2 minutes, but guided him to Venkygct who had been very kind to take over all the "check disbursement" responsibilities. Another 2 minutes, and we have another beneficiary visiting. This time, Venky sees him and runs to us:)

    But, we have only a few minutes to the rally, so we decide to go further away from the booth.... and we go really really far... and then start practising once again.

    And then after a few minutes, we see Venky and a beneficiary running to us from 2 different directions, but Venky intercepting the missile before it got us:D

    Thanks Venky for everything! You made it all sound easy. Starting from the day you postponed your India trip to make it to the rally, you had started making a positive impact on us.
    (Folks, Venky even roped in a handful of his own friends to come to the rally. )

    You were the God-sent help Arun and I were really missing! We had been finding it hard tracking down some of the sponsors and beneficiaries whose IV profiles had phony emails and bad phone numbers! But you came and things started moving real smooth.

    Not to forget Drona's tremendous efforts in roping in dante, prp79, jiren... and in fact co-ordinating the sponsorship for one of them completely on her own!

    Of course, Drona's dream to form the "Let's partner to increase resonance" band remains unfulfilled. So venky, by the next rally, do learn to play the drums:D


    IV hadle of Dr Saurabh is 'drsaurabhsethi'. abhijitp, you guys rocked the stage with my favourite music. I want congratulate everyone in CA chpater for their enthusiasm and grand participation in the rally. You guys did it, what we couldn't do being local to DC. We learned a lot from CA chpater memebers from their dedication and hard work. Keep it up. Hats off to all CA members.

    "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.
