    then why are visas about to be wasted yet again this year?
    after...they said all numbers were exhausted on July 2?


    Because of NC what else?


    i think it's not quite that simple.
    there is no doubt that lack of numbers is a key key issue. but letting uscis off the hook when they have failed to process 269,000 Green Card numbers since 1994 is not kosher. that is >20% of the backlog right there.


    Sigh... it's never simple...

    That said, NC can account for nearly all of the wastage. Think about it, let's say the processing time is 120 days (well within target, and not at all bad for a government agency).

    OK; recall that you can't apply until your PD is current (read this sentence again, this is a critical element of the problem).

    Application #1 (made in first half of year, visa tentatively assigned from current allotment year) -> PD current, goes into NC.

    Application #2 (can't be made in first half of year, because PD is not current, visa is not "tentatively" assigned from current allotment year, since it isn't expected to complete within the allotment year) -> PD becomes current in July, NC happens quickly.

    Application #2 takes 120 days to process (better than target), but that means that (as expected) it isn't ready to be assigned a visa until after the next allotment year (so far so good, USCIS has accounted for this, and doesn't expect it to consume a visa from the current allotment year).

    So application #1 couldn't consume a visa because of NC, and application #2 fell into the normal processing time, but this pushed it into the next allotment year (again, this is expected).

    Early in the next allotment year Application #2 is approved, and consumes one visa from the next allotment year.

    Application #1 is where the actual wastage occurs, since it is expected that an application filed in the first half of the current allotment year will consume it's visa within the year (and given USCIS processing time it would have, but it was stuck in NC).

    So at any time, the USCIS is processing applications within their target processing times, but because of the fact that you can't file until your PD is current, the applications that would have been able to have consumed the visas that were not consumed due to NC delays, couldn't because their "normal" processing time put them into the next allotment period.

    So why not let people apply before their PD is current then?

    The reason USCIS doesn't let you apply before the PD is current is because there aren't enough visas and they would currently have ~3M applications in process, many of which would be abandoned prior to approval (due to the long delays, caused by lack of visas).

    So, because of the insufficient numbers of visas, USCIS has determined that it is more efficient to restrict application until the PD is current; thus insuring that most of the applications that are going to be abandoned, are abandoned before they are filed (therefore reducing load on the USCIS). This seems like quite a logical decision given the constraints.

    I am willing to bet, that the net result is that the USCIS can actually approve more 485's in an allotment year by wasting some of them at the end of the year (which occurs primarily as a result of the fact that USCIS can neither predict, nor influence NC duration), rather than dealing with the huge inefficiencies of having millions of applications on file (which would, however, insure that there were sufficient processed applications to consume all visas).

    If either NC were predictable (and quick) or there were sufficient visas in each allotment period to meet demand, then there would be no wastage. You can beat on USCIS all you want, but they simply cannot control either of these factors...

    Like I said... it is never simple...

    Now, this thought is hardly original (I think that everyone who has looked at this problem comes to the same conclusion), but I think the most practical solution that we (as customers of the system) can suggest, that will provide partial relief (and has some chance of happening in our lifetimes); is to get congress to pass an amendment for automatic reclamation of visas from prior allotment periods. This would mitigate the problem of visa wastage, as this will allow a substantial portion of what would have been wasted visas, to be consumed by the applications who's PD became current in the second half of the allotment year, but could not be processed (due to normal processing time) prior to the end of the allotment year. Perhaps this reclamation could be restricted to applications filed in the allotment period from which the visas are being reclaimed (if this somehow made it more palatable to congress).

    Of course, this does nothing to solve the problem for those individuals stuck in NC who are effectively "donating" their visa to individuals who aren't stuck in NC. Perhaps they will feel better (I seriously doubt it though) knowing that the visa that they didn't get this year, was not wasted...


    my straightforward NIW application based on national interest service not exceptional ability (which may be more subjective) will take almost a year to process. wow....!


    In Canada this would be expected to take 8 months to process. Like I said, the USCIS is quick relative to other bureaucracies...


    uscis also takes the narrowest interpretations of any law- even when it clearly conflicts with the law's intent- then it takes a lawsuit to budge them- speaking from personal experience and the loss of 4 years in PD in an India line...believe me this is not an agency i feel like defending.

    just my 2c.


    I am certainly not asking you to defend them.

    This isn't about defending or attacking USCIS, it is about determining the root cause of the problem, and doing that requires an emotionless analysis of the facts.

    I have had IO's who were complete dorks (refused to admit me with a perfectly valid visa), but really, what impact does one dork IO have on the big picture? Absolutely nothing I suspect (and to be fair, the vast majority of IO's that I have dealt with have been very decent human beings).

    Please don't shoot me for these thoughts, but please consider it only for sake of discussion.

    Now that CIR is defeated again for nth time, We really need to consider rethinking about our stratergy,

    I guess we are about 15K membership and if we include spouse and take a guess every one in five has dependent kid to join (wild gusstimate) we come close 35-40K approximately.

    most of us are legal and we should not having any issue in getting Green card with current law only if backlog is cleared and we recapture visa numbers.

    to recapture visa numbers we don't need any legislative reform AC-21 does apply,

    We need to spend more energy in researching possibility of recapturing 90K visas and we will be done,

    I really don't think we have strength and will power to fight legislation change along with illegals for most controversial subject.

    we are legals letz use it our advantage.

    I did belive in piggy back ride along with illegals, but I don't any more,

    I would say your calculations are spot on mate. 10150 is all we will get in Eb3. But if spouses and children are not counted against the cap, then it is truly 10150 primary applicants per year.

    Just curious, and thinking loud: if there is a limited and reduced number of H1B workers come in, in the long run the number of applicants for permanent residency will be shrinking too (at least EB category). To reduce EB GC applications, and preserve the americanness of the employee-pool, this seems to be a nice and covert trick, at least to me. Let few people come for 6 years, and so fewer may remain as GC holders. Maybe I am missing something here.

    When they reduce H1 B why do not you think about reducing immigrant visas like EB based.

    I was thinking about PMI, CISA and MBA right from the time I landed in US in 1999. Then I realized that I need to get an GC to make use of those. Then I started to look for a stable company where I can start my GC process. It took three years toll till then. I joined a good ameican company as a perm employee. They did not file my GC as they promised and I had to quit to join another company for the heck of my GC and for my (my wife with CPA / CA is on H4 for 5th year now) dream career. I had to go many step back in technology with the new company but I sucessfully managed to file my GC.

    Then what? When I finished studying my PMI, all the retrogression story started. Then I had to ask questions my self.

    1. With PMI certification in 2004, if I am doing a Sr. Software engineer, will it not raise questions down the line in my career interviews. May be yes or no, but I do not have answers.
    2. With PMI Cert in 2004, if I can get my GC in 2005, I am pretty sure I could manage any questions throws at me, but not in 2008 or 2010. So I dropped the idea on PMI / CISA/ GMAT until I have 50% certanity of when I will be getting my GC in hand.
    3. The worst will be starting an MBA with good univeristy and competing it in next two years with zero hope of getting GC then. What would you do if you are not even closer to file your 485 when you have MBA degree in hand. You will have career in your home country with this MBA for sure, but who will pay your debts here. It is like shooting yourself on your foot with golden gun. Atleast you will be satsifed it is golden gun, but the end result is hurting yourselves.

    4. So what is the option? Never give up. There are always difficult times for everyone. What we are facing is nothing. There are people who are graduating at the age of 70 in US. I have seen a lady at the age of 70 graduating with MAB from Harvard. I thought she did it for fun, but in an interview she said she wants to pursue her career in marketing field. This is an eye opener for me. So prepare yourself with TOEFL and GMAT. These scores are valid for 5 years. Join from volunteer organizations and develop your leadership skills. Reco letters from these orgs will have great impact when you apply for MBA infuture. Most of all it is right way to live a peaceful life atleast if you do not go the MBA route, you will develop the skills needed for your life.

    That is right. But same country quota is there in EB system also. So in point system also 80% of people will get same quality of people as current system. But advantage is process delay will be eliminated.

    Because of the country quota what you have said below is applicable to only people from India, because of the tremendous competition from Indian applicatants you would need the highest points , ms or phd, 5 years experience, employer sponsorship, and also relatives, but if you are from non Indian countries then you will easily get it because there is not much if any competition.

    For example people from India might need 90+ points to have any chance but people from other countries might need just 60 points to get in. This is not merit based system, it is Kennedy Diversity Visa disguised as merit system.

    If the media holds Obama to the same standard as they do the republicans, you will see the democrats crumbling faster than a cookie.

    There is so much hypocrisy in the media. If women vote for Sarah Palin it is wrong because you voting her just because of his gender. But oh, if you are black and dont vote Obama, then you are the most odious person living in this world. How will you explain your kids that you did not support a black person for presidency? This kind of duplicity is keeping Obama look good in the eyes of people. Throw off your goggles and you will see the same issues with Obama that you see with Sarah.


    Also, so many low intensity criminals are asked to do community service, that does not qualify them to become the president of US. And what happened to his moral fiber when he changed his opposition to the telco immunity bill and voted so that he does not look bad on security issues? Did he use that fiber to get rid of his constipation issues??

    Give me one example where media told that a black person has to vote for black person. Otherwise you are making stuff just for arguing.

    All,
    Is LUD mandetory after finger printing? I applied for EAD for my wife and me on 5/21. Sent supporting docs and had LUD on 5/23. Went for finger printing on 6/10 but no LUD so far. I am concerned if the finger printing center sent the data to USCIS or not. Our EAD expired 7/30 so I am concerned.

    Thanks
    ACS

    Posting the same Q in multiple threads. I answered in the other EAD thread.

    My GC filing company is not a non profit institution still my labor took 2 months and I 140 took less than 3 months.

    Hello All,
    I was reading the posts, I somehow believe there are some variations among EB2 categories, of what we all have been calling I,II or three.

    It is not not primarily based on salary only, I believe, it has more to do with the nature of your job, job title, size of the company, type of company, for profit or non-profit.

    My wife is a University professor, applied for our GC, EB2 India PD date august2007. We got our labor approved in a less that 2 months, we got our I40 cleared in 5 months, ( applied in January 08 got approved in June).

    I believe , we are able to move so fast in this process was mainly because the type of company she works for, in this case the non profit institution.

    Now at this point in time, I would like to ask all the gurus, are the dates going to move fast in next few months?

    Thanks

    Thanks

    It is amusing to see that there are quite a few people who want the very door closed that they used to enter. It is even more amusing to see that the fault is always someone elses. It is similar to all the people who are opposed to immigration because it is someone elses fault that they are losing their job. Down right funny :p.

    We need to focus on solving our problems without blaming others for our problems. Because once we go down that lane, we are no better than anyone from NumbersUSA or any other organization/ people who are against immigration. It is OK if we do not support increasing H1B - but saying that the H1B program needs to shutdown is not correct. I am sure that one can reason in the same breath that the EB3 category needs to be eliminated so that retrogression can truely be eliminated :eek:

    My earlier offered me ticket to my home country when they let me go. They specified in letter that they are offerring this according to the law. But I think its not neccessary to have employer to send termination letter to USCIS. Actually person can request company to stop sending this letter if employer is intend to. This way employer will not going to loose anything.

    Hi guys,

    I have just called the USCIS. They told me that the applications will not be rejected but just put on hold until our visa numbers will be avialiable ifor the nerw FY 2008.

    In addition she told me that the Nebraska office is sending back the filing receipt to the applicants which it should not affect our h1-b visa status in case we are going to travel.

    For the last part I do not believe her. Is there anyone else that can confirm that ?

    Thank you.

    Andrea

    Accountability. Ok great, accountability is a pretty good concept. However I think the OP is targeting the wrong people here.
    Do we even dare to hold the CIS/DOS accountable for their wishful manipulation of PDs? These guys can't even give us information that's there in their own systems.
    Did we raise our voice when H1Bs (an arch which all of us have passed through) were being demonized by the media and politicians?
    So we are not holding the people who have been the biggest beneficiaries of our money accountable, why hold a volunteer group, who are nothing more than regular people like us with families and personal issues accountable for trying to fix something that's broken.
    Shoot in the city I live in, it's like the Richard Pryor paraphrase "I see brown people"
    Yet when we want to discuss agenda and action items, how many show up: 6, yes, 6.
    Maybe next time we'll put up a board for free pizza and beer.
    And here you are giving IV lunch money and asking for bill passage. :rolleyes:
