Coming to DC will be a memory most of us will cherish... and for a really long time...
Whether it was working late or eating dinner at 3 am or running to meetings, it was an enriching experience for all IV members. And it makes us proud that we stood up & made our presence felt & voices heard...
We all knew each other by IV handles... but meeting in DC put names & faces to those handles...
Meeting each & everyone was amazing and even more satisfying was that people came from different states & with families & kids...
A li'l disappointed with the locals who didn't turn up though.... and more so with those who walked on the other side of the road from all of us....

I didnt. I dont know if there is any number to call to find the status.
I just called the number on the online status and the lady I spoke to initiated an inquiry and gave me an inquiry confirmation number. I dont know if that is of any good.

Quick question; so when was your EB3 140 approved? or does it really have to be approved inorder to port to the EB2?
Can a person who only has labor approved under EB3 later port to that date if he were to get the labor approved under EB2?
My EB-3 I-140 was approved in March 2007. Yes, you need to have an approved I-140 to port your PD. Just an approved labor with earlier PD won't help.

Just few months ago, I had enough to spare 20% down payment for the type of townhome I liked, I made commitment for buying it. I have been carefully reading various home related articles in news papers as well as in IV postings. All the arguments against buying did not affect decision-making in terms of delaying or stopping.
Some of the ancinet Indian thoughts link changes in luck (for good or bad) with differenct events of life - education, marriage, childbirth, new friends, change of place, change of job, change of home, etc. While selecting home I tried to follow as much as possible to Indian Vastu Shastra and Chinese Feng Shui.
This is my third home purchase - two was in India - so I am not excited like earlier purchases. In fact while selling previous one (because I needed money), I was not comfortable because I got very much attached.
Simply:
I did not buy earlier, because I was not having enough money. When prices lowered and I could afford, I made purchase. I had social pressure for the last five-six years to purchase home but I did not yield to that (20% was my bottom line). Now there is media pressure against buying but I did not yield to that.
It was just, when I became comfortable. I'll be moving next month.

to put numbers to your guess, I am guessing roughly even at an optimistic approach, 1000 applications from EB3-I from 2002 may have ported to eb2 or left the country and nothing more than. Why not we do these guys. just a IV sampling poll. Lets create a poll for IV members alone, for eb3-I alone. Lets give all the 12 months as option, and people can update. We can atleast know how many cases are waiting in eb3-I from IV alone for the year 2002. What say you guys? any one wants to take up the initiative? We can also Add an option additionally for 2003 cases and so forth as one option. Our goal is to find how many of us here in IV are waiting with 2002 PD for eb3-I.
Why did they waste 500 EB3I last year. What makes them approve EB3 at that slow rate. All the cases are at NSC for 10 years. Why the ##&( they are issuing 1 year EAD for EB3I. There is no FIFA or whatever it is. How can TSC approve all cases at such a fast rate and NSC sits on them till the processing time is crossed and wait for a SR .

well red and green u dont have to be so harsh.. a desi is willing to tell and share his success lets listen.. i know its pretty difficult to outsmart the people who have invested thousand of hours .
last 4 yr of study tells me there is money to make , fastest way to make money..you have to make sure its safe..
so i will like the idea of a yahoo group... i have spend almost 4yr * 2 to 3 hrs daily.. didnt make much money at all... but i can honestly tell you there is lot of oppurtunity here.. as long as you can spend time and be patient.. read stockbee blog its a good start.
i like to hear trading strategy from anyone who is doing good..as long as they dont start selling snake oil..
We can create a small area within IV forums for people to share knowledge on various non immigration subjects. What do you think?

After receiving GC do we have to report to SSN to change the SSN card but with same number. Existing card says work paper required.
Any anyone knows action item required after receiving GC then please post here?
All of them might not be applicable for all, but found this on another forum ...
1 - New SSN to get rid of pesky legend "requires INS authorization..."
2 - SSN for wife
3 - Drivers license for wife without pesky legend "temporary for one yr or until H1 validity...", etc.)
4 - Update I-9 form with employer
5 - Someone here said let your mortgage company know about GC if you own a home, not sure why?
6 - Do not hand over the I-94 card to the airlines/immigration offices at the airport. Keep it or through away
7 - Do not need to carry anything other then Passport and Green Card when travelling

Good Luck on your approval. I think you are Man(strong guess) in a hurry.
I did not mean to make fun out of you. what I meant was that you and your spouse. I guess it did not come out that way. Sorry about that.
Thanks for the details.

Thx Macaca for the self-filing option. Unfortunately, that is not an option for many of us. Our corporate lawyers are supposed to handle this and they have out I-140 approvals. So not sure how we can self-file... In most of the cases, these big lawfirms are taking days to respond to us, claiming huge workloads.

No I was planning on taking Infopass after the 15th(per my attorney) if there were no LUD'S. Thanks

Hello Gurus,
I have a question as follows. I was with an old company and transferred the H1 in the 9th year to the new company. I already had my Labor and I-140 approved with the old company (EB3-I Category).
After switching to this new company I had to start my PERM all over again as I missed the July 2007 boat and could not file for I-485. My new company is based in L.A.-California. I am already drawing my salary from new company. They only have office in L.A. I work for them from my home office in NJ. Today the company's attorney called & asked me that I needed to have L.A. residential address as it is required to be stated on the application. I have no intentions to move to L.A. in near future. I am in a fix now as to how to go about this. I will appreciate all you gurus and experts advice and also please advise me repercussions if any.
Please help.

I was just getting more information on EB3 India on the net.And found an interesting blog(It makes sense to me and that why i am posting this thread)
Skilled Immigration to USA: Hidden Aspects: Retrogression Math for Dummies - EB3 India Edition (http://skilledimmigrants.blogspot.com/2006/12/retrogression-math-for-dummies-eb3.html)
Its a 2006 blog , but it makes sense even today for EB3 India
Finally that's when you switch on your calculator and start working with the numbers. There are 140,000 visa numbers available under all the employment based categories, with 7% per country limit and 28.6% allocated for EB3 and dependents counted into the numbers, there are only about 115 EB3 primary applicants allowed from India per month. Throw in a few thousand illegals(amnesty) into the mix and now you have the royal screw-up as is happening now. The law allows visa numbers from unused countries to be transferred to the oversubscribed countries but with nearly every category retrogressed this law won't apply for a while.
The future looks toooo dark even to mention.
Jago EB3 Indians Jago
The biggest problem with lot of EB3-Is with older PDs is that they won't switch jobs and port to EB2. they will cite number of reasons for maintaining the status quo i.e their EAD status post July 07.
A handful will march to washington DC and get the senators to know them by their "first names". Others will simply chip in a few hundred bucks and make themselves feel they are the Buffets and the Gates of this world. Still others will simply fume and fret. Some will preach how porting EB3->2 means "gaming" the system.
All very experienced EB workers who think they can get the best of everything at the price of nothing. Who want everything "risk free".
Green cards in the mail and smooth upward progressions in their careers.:D
