Yes, that's true.
it does contradict with what they said in April VB, but Ron said that his source is Oppenheimer. so I would go with what he said. remember, it was Oppenheimer who told him back in Feb or early Mar that India EB2 will have a cutoff date in April.

I E-Filed my 2nd EAD Renewal on 04/30/2010 and when answering the current immigration status in E Filing application as there is no appropriate option I left Blank and submitted. This is my second E-Filing , when I was first filed renewal this question is not there.
After a week I sent my photos along copy of 485 Receipt, copy of I 140 approval receipt, previous copies of EAD & copy of Driving License with a covering letter saying that I left the �current immigration status� filed is blank on the online form and I mentioned my current immigration in the covering letter as � Pending I-485 based authorized stay�.
Yesterday I got the email from USCIS �On May 20, 2010, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283.�
( First time I got one year, when renewal lost time I got two years, this 2nd Renewal).

Thank you. The community needs to wake up. Times are going to be tough not just for H1B but for everyone else in line for GC.
Advocacy is a long term process that requires lot of efforts and resources. We should not be expecting quick results because of one month's contribution. That is peanuts when you compare it with the amount being spent against us.
It is high time people join the state chapters and try to lead them if your state chapter is dormant or inactive. Action items will happen but we need to be ready. Try to get more people in IV. The mantra for success will be mass participation in the coming times. It should not be a couple of hundred phone calls or faxes that happened last year, but hundreds of thousands of calls, faxes and thousands of meetings.
If we can achieve that then we will definitely increase chances of success significantly this year.
This community needs to think how it can increase mass participation on IV and bring everyone waiting in line on IV platform.
Let me know what and where to direct them. I promise and I will update the progress on daily basis.

Guys, Can we get some corporate funding on IV's effort. I agree that our contributions can also make a difference but if any big corporate decides to support our cause, don't you think it would make a very big difference, funding wise. Big companies like Mircrosoft, Oracle also do favor immigration reforms and I think they too are currently lobbying for the same. If somehow, we can also extract some contributions from them for the same cause that would really give great impetus to IV's efforts.

"Also the EB queue needs to be considered while moving to the skill based one" - I don't know what you meant by this line but I am in no mood to restart my GC application (for which I have been waiting for the past 9 years) just because some genius (whoever that person was) woke up one morning and decided that all the applications need to be reformed into a points based system.
Of course we are all in the EB queues. I don't want to discuss details of any campaigns in the public forum. You could volunteer for this too and suggest your ideas to 'StarSun' and clear your doubts.

Few years back, someone at USCIS, changed the good old horizontal spillover to new vertical spillover just like that (probably on some new-bee intern's suggestion). Without any legislation change, or CIR, or admin fix...
Same way, USCIS can change it back to old horizontal spillover, and EB3-I will start seeing ~15K-~20K again every year.
We should try to re-introduce this concept of horizontal spillover back in USCIS's mind.
Ok. We all agree that EB3 India is in bad shape and needs help.
Some of us are managers/team leaders. Others have leadership skills and want to be managers in the near future.
If you are a CEO what would you do to solve the EB3 India issue.
Please present your ideas here. Just the ideas.
Dont shoot down others ideas.
Remember you ideas should be similar to a CEO.
Show your leadership skills.

IV members are requested to update their profile with valid dates so that we can make IV tracker helpful for everyone.
I have personally decided to make this request to everyone who does not have their details completed and only then respond to the member. If a member has bogus data in their profile for tracking purposes I would not be replying to that post. This might help encourage members wanting replies from IV core team for their questions.

USCIS has already made everything 'U', starting with August and this year's quota is finished. Also now they have a little advantage that everyone who can file I-485 will file it. They now have all the applications and all the numbers to calculate for next few years.
Don't you guys think that the USCIS will probably keep on moving the dates by as much only to accomodate the quota numbers.
Also, BEC has targetted Sep '07 to clear all labor backlogs and new I-485 approvals won't start before Oct '07. Older PDs will (as they always had) have golden value.
Once bitten twice shy, USCIS will not make the mistake of making dates 'C' in a long time.
2006-07 filers have intermittent releif of EADs which BEC or pre-PERMs never dreamt of :) (that includes me)
This is what looks logical and this will do justice to all.

On August 3, 2010, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later.

During this step the formal decision (approved/denied) is written and the decision notice is mailed and/or emailed to the applicant/petitioner. You can use our current processing time to gauge when you can expect to receive a final decision.
Not sure what ADIT and last paragraph mean... anyone with similar message..

I just renew my passport at Houston, TX. It takes about 3 weeks. After so many tries, I was able to speak with CSR and she told me that it will take 3 weeks (this is standard processing time). I have received my new passport along with the old last week.

I wouldn't pass such judgement on immigration-law.com. They've acknowledged the mistake. It's not like no one makes any mistakes, it's how they acknowledge and move forward.
Immigration-law.com has made many many many mistakes especially considering the fact that they are lawyers. Lawyers by profession hardly ever make statements, since their profession is to make sure what they state is 100% accurate. They are more like a news sensation organization, so please there is no need to defend them. But people like us that includes me want this thing to work so bad that we go to their website for our vested interest and to give us some hope. They are more like a blog than a legal web-site.

Our attorney has set a Saturday deadline for the submission of all forms so that the filing can be done in Jul 1st week - They have reiterated several times that the visa numbers can be unavailable in the middle of July and this cannot be reversed even though USCIS cannot legally override the DOS bulletin.

Unfortunately your friend is correct - the alternate I can think is withdraw your present application and file I-140 and I-485 simultaneously now - other please tell whether this will be a good approach for their benefit. Can EB3 file concurrently I 140 and I 485.
But how to revoke an already submitted I-140 Eb-2?
By the way, many a time such a case would be issued an RFE and then you could change (not aware of the exact terminology for this) it to Eb-3.

WOW!!.. whats a response.. Keep going..
At the same time, keep trying yourselves also by whatever means possible. Totoro is trying so hard for us, and even if we have five guys like this with such contacts, yet the efforts are not sufficient. We must also help ourselves by our individual efforts like writing to change.gov etc.. Lets not put all the 6 pages of ideas in just one basket. Since there is difference between eggs and ideas, duplicate the ideas and put them in other ways also, apart from just here.
Totoro,
Thanks for your efforts.
We all missed one point. Can you please update your profile.
Are Canadians also backlogged in this mess.
And you said "As some of you know...." . Were you try in these lines before too.
Canadians don't have as many problems as Indians, but a broken system doesn't work for anyone. I know of Canadians who are also very frustrated with the system, myself included.
