Most EB2's who are talking on this forum are idiotic, egostic and too much of themselves to think straight. Case in point Smugbee, SNathan and TonyHK. Since they don't have ead they want ead and thats all they care about. As long as they get to file 485 and get ead they dont care.
When an eb3 complains about waiting for GC he/she is a whiner and has to recognize the superiority of an EB2 getting GC before EB3 even if teh EB2 is 1 year in thsi country and EB3 has been waiting for 12 years.
When an eb2 complains about not having ead his concerns are valid and nothing else is more important on IV thean that
Eb2 are there in Eb2 for a reason and Eb3 are there in Eb3 for a reason.

Thank you for sharing with me your support for comprehensive immigration reform. I appreciate hearing from you and share your concerns.
While the United States cannot afford to absorb all those who want to settle here, we are a nation of immigrants. My mother came to the United States from Lithuania with her parents when she was two years old, and our family created a new life in Illinois. It is a testament to the greatness of this nation that the son of an immigrant can rise to represent the state of Illinois in the Senate.
At the same time, our nation faces a host of problems as a result of years of inattention to our immigration policies. The Homeland Security Department estimates that about 11 million people in the United States do not have legal status, including those who enter the country illegally and those who overstay a temporary visa. I have worked to reform our immigration system comprehensively and in a way that is tough, realistic, and consistent with our moral values.
While there currently is no comprehensive immigration reform bill in the Senate, I recently joined a number of Senators in releasing a blueprint outlining the basic principles that a reform measure should include. The plan would improve border security by increasing manpower and deploying new technology. It would strengthen enforcement against employers who hire illegal immigrants. Today, undocumented workers are often exploited by employers who hire them. Strengthening the penalties for employers who hire undocumented workers will ensure that both immigrants and citizens who work here are protected by our wage and labor laws.
If we are serious about reform, we need a realistic approach to the millions of undocumented immigrants who already live and work in our country. We need to offer immigrants who work hard and demonstrate a long-term commitment to be law-abiding, contributing members of our society a chance to pay fines and earn their way to permanent legal status over the course of many years.
If we do not give people who are already a part of our communities the chance to earn their way to legal status, we will not solve the problem of illegal immigration. People who are living here illegally will stay in the shadows instead of coming forward to register with the government.
Immigration is good for America, but an employer's first job offer should go to any American who is willing and able to fill the job. I have been concerned about the potential impact of past proposals for temporary guest worker programs on the American workforce. In many industries, the assured availability of large pools of guest workers will give employers an incentive to pass over American job applicants in favor of foreigners willing to work for less pay and fewer benefits. During the immigration debate, I offered a Hire Americans First amendment to require employers to seek American workers for their open positions before they try to bring in guest workers. I have also introduced legislation to combat abuses in the H-1B visa program.
There is no perfect solution to the problems we face as a result of our broken immigration system. Today, our borders are not secure, our workplace enforcement laws need reform, and our immigration policy fosters a shadow economy for millions of immigrants who simply want to demonstrate that they can be hardworking contributors to the greatness of our country.
I will continue to work for a package of reforms that will protect American workers and that will be tough, enforceable, economically sensible, and morally defensible. I will keep your views in mind as the debate continues. Thank you again for contacting me. Please feel free to keep in touch.
Sincerely,

Please don't start shouting at me for being "anti-BEC-victims", because I'm not. But just consider this. Even if you are able to turn mountains around and get a suit filed against DOL before Sept 2007 they will be be able to get it thrown out or at least get a stay simply by stating they already have a public commitment to clearing all the cases by Sept 2007 so it will be non issue in just couple of months. You will not have strong case till Sept 2007 is actually passed and they have not delivered on the commitment. Sept 2007 is just two months away. Use these months to do your ground work like finding and mobilizing BEC victims etc. and go for the actual action only after Sept 2007 dead line has passed. This way if they really deliver on their promise you would save yourself lot of money and trouble.
Just my 2 cents. Your grievances are 100% genuine and I do feel for you. Hopefully they will clear this mess soon.

In my opinion, with this global economy - if the spouse is well educated and can work, there should be an opportunity for that person to work (atleast few hours per day).
Excellent point. I think that the heart of the issue is that the immigration system in US is stuck in stone age when the needs of a knowledge driven, global economy are considered. Every visa category denied a job is seen as having an American having a shot at that opportunity. This is a short sighted view: people that can be launching companies etc are sitting and waiting for a decision from an inefficient, ineffective and outdated bureaucracy.
But what do I know? I "knew the rules before I came here" :o

Just got the information from Murthy.
RFEs or Denials May Not Be Based on Wikipedia Information
The USCIS has been known to use an ever-growing number of publicly available sources, including internet sources such as Wikipedia. AILA members have been receiving denials based on the USCIS's use of information found on Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia to which anyone in the world may contribute information. As such, it should not be considered an objective or completely reliable source of information. SCOPS advised that it has notified the service centers and there should not be additional RFEs or denials based upon Wikipedia.
It should be noted that, as a corollary, applicants and petitioners should not try to use Wikipedia as support for their filings or arguments, since it has been deemed an unreliable source.

Friends,
Ofcourse everyone is very excited that the priority dates are current but let's take a careful look for why it became current all of a sudden even when the demand for visa numbers is so high and was backlogged by 5 years up until couple of months ago.
1. I sincerely feel this is just to keep the legal immigrants to stop protesting for benefits in the CIR. Well, the CIR is supposed to be dead right? Wrong, count 2 weeks from now and the Bill will be back with tons of benefits for Illegal aliens and none for legals.
2. Currently Service centers are processing cases received in Aug-Sept. '06 with the few thousands of applications being submitted for the next few weeks the processing dates will be moved back by couple of years. All this time we were waiting for the priority dates and now will wait for the processing dates to be advanced. What a circus!!!
3. Just when the case is ready for processing that would be atleast couple of years from now, the priority dates will be retrogressed may be by 10 years this time.
To my knoweledge we should still continue to lobby the senators and get the Visa numbers increased, get the country quota eliminated, Only one visa should be counted per family... and get it into the CIR. Should the CIR pass without these ammendments legal immigrants will be stuck in limbo for every because there will be no more CIRs in the near future.
TIA

YES!!. Perfect analysis. You are right!. The fight is ON!. It is just that members need to get this filing for 485 out of their way. But lets not get distracted too much and keep an eye on any legislation comming up.

I have started a thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=23116) so that the documentation does not get buried in other other threads... Please reply if you have any links/info.

Dear Dr. Teli (I am sure you are a Dr. because you dont let facts or reality come in the way of your diagnosis of a situation, argument or person, only a PhD can do that)
Thank you for doing the homework on my 1 year of postings..Not even my wife pays that much attention to me, makes me feel really valuable :)
I could have told you that. I have never contributed any money to IV and probably never will. Because i dont think they are doing anything. I have, however, answered a few people's questions about AP or H4 visa (something with which i had to spend a lot of time researching). That is the extent of my "contribution". I just answered a few earnest questions to the best of my ability.
You can attack me all you want. For example, probably I am not EB2..Hmm, I thought EB2 was an employment category and not a species classification but I may be wrong...
Anyway, what happens is that whenever a new visa bulletin rolls out, there are all these posts which basically say
1. Contribute
2. We must do something
3. What is IV core doing
4. Where is VDLRAO
5. When will the injustice end
etc etc etc
I have been seeing this for the last 3 years. First things first, If you want to take action, spend 41 cents every day and send a letter to your congressman or senator everyday for 1 year....For $149 per year (365 * 0.41 not counting leap years and counting on the fact that you will mail a letter even on holidays :))
At the end of the year, at least you have something to show for what you did. With IV, you can convince people that Patton Boggs is doing all they can for you, Trust them.
I am not blaming the Core at all, they are doing whateven they can given the limited resources, time and influence they have. But, what I am blaming, is the the "holier than thou" attitude which is adopted when distinguishing between those that are the exalted DONORS and those that aren't :)
Chaanakya,
You said "Thank you for doing the homework on my 1 year of postings..Not even my wife pays that much attention to me, makes me feel really valuable :)".
He is not that partial that he leaves others. If you look at my posts, I noticed exactly the same. He appears to know everything about me :) . And I am very sure others here who raise valid points have noticed the same.
Please show some pity of this guy.He probably has no job, thinks supporting blindly gets him some points from core or someone.. He does manage a good # of greens though. Its possible he has 15 to 20 accounts in this forum and logs in with each account, gives greens to rest of them. Please excuse him. I usually dont reply to these folks.

:D Where have we heard this before.
To any member who has been looking at some of the posts since April/May of this year it will be apparant that there has been an attempt by the ultra conservative, anti-immigration groups to create a divide among legal and so called illegal immigration issues. It was good to see that most members perceived this and stayed away from singing the legal vs illegal immigration tune.
Now comes the lame attempt to play on your fears again. What would happen to you if all these so called "illegals" were to get in line ahead of you? The knee-jerk reaction is so obvious. If you see deeper, you will find that all this is but wenting of frustration by the anti-immigration groups on their major loss in the recent elections.
There is a precedent for this behaviour. After the CIR was passed in Senate in May earlier this year, these same anti-immigration group members posted so many inflamatory posts that created a bad vibe on this forum. Well today is a redo of that. Just count the number of posts and you will know what I mean. ;) I urge all members to look at the new ray of hope provided by the change in the new congress and ignore attempts to dampen your enthusiasm in garb of fair and balanced aka an anti-immigration spin :)

This is yet another example of how the US is happy to tax us and let us finance Social Security, then place us in a similar category to "illegal aliens" when it suits them. Please give results on any legal redress as soon as you have them, as I will join also. I have already written to Congressman Chris Van Hollen of Maryland about this.

Dont worry.. More and More people are converting from Eb3 to Eb2 of late. Very soon, there will be a huge backlog for Eb2 and then Eb3 will move forward :)

See the bold text. Because the bill is yanked out, amendments are added to the bill and now it is going to be put back as a new bill.
http://www.heritage.org/Research/Immigration/2007legislation_2.cfm
The Senate's Second Secret Immigration Bill
by The Heritage Foundation
FYI
For weeks, Americans were told that there are only two options for dealing with the nation's illegal immigration problem: stay with the status quo or accept a "grand bargain"--a tenuous behind-closed-doors deal, first made public by The Heritage Foundation, which contained nearly 800 pages of flawed policies. In the face of overwhelming criticism from all sides, this legislation was withdrawn from the Senate.
Now, an altogether new bill (S. 1639) has been introduced by Senators Ted Kennedy and Arlen Specter. It seems to incorporate the previous legislation, with some amendments. After it is read into the Senate calendar on Wednesday, the Majority Leader will be able to proceed to consider this legislation anew at any time; debate is likely to follow later this week, with a final vote very soon thereafter.
This schedule will afford lawmakers even less time for consideration and deliberation than they had before. It will deny them the various procedures long associated with America's deliberative lawmaking process--hearings, testimony, committee debate and amendments, floor debate, and the possibility of further amendments. Instead, according to reports, this legislation will proceed based on an altogether new and expedited procedure designed for the sole purpose of forcing the bill's many ill-conceived policies over legitimate minority objections.
As it has before, for the sake of open deliberation and public education, The Heritage Foundation is making this legislation publicly available to encourage widespread debate and discussion. Heritage Foundation analysts will be reading this legislation and considering its implications--as will everyone outside the confines of the narrow group that conceived it--as quickly as possible.
So if this bill is introduced as a new one with a new bill number, does that May 15th provision still stand? Or is it now gonna be June 19th ?

I believe this ......
I am assuming that EB2 India will have a cut-off date of atleast June 2006 for Aug as well as Sep. The time window of approvals is Aug 1 2008 to Sep 30 2008. In this time frame, they will have to pull the files from shelves and make them ready for adjudication.
I also remember from I-485 field SOP, that first step is to contact US Consulate abroad where you filled your DS-156 if you traveled within last 12 months for any discrepancy. This step itself can take a long time.
Then there are a lot of people who had PD current but they haven't done finger-printing yet. Imagine time required to schedule fingerprints, appear for one, and then get the results.
Just my thoughts.

The word on the street is that the Cantwell amendment is not a part of the list of amendments that are currently floating around in Senate offices. There are 20 of them.

All fair arguments. I went through similar emotions, but I tend to agree with Alias. It is best to correct if there was any error.
In my case, all I got was the Welcome letter and then a temporary I-551 stamp. The officer at InfoPass told me that it was approved and he was going to order the plastic card ,and there is no sign of it yet. Of course, it is their mistake that I am not able to renew my EAD since my status on their system is permanent resident. I wanted to renew EAD when it was about to expire a few months ago, but there is no place in the form to write in a PR status (and, of course, that would have been strange as well). So, I expect them to make amends for their mistake. Ideally, they should pay for my $2,500 attorney fees as well, but I guess, that is too much to hope for! I honestly had completely stopped tracking the visa bulletin and this was an unwanted reminder of how sorry the state of legal immigration is.
I still don't know what had happened and that is what I am trying to find out. May be, mine was correctly approved!
