Lost in the big hoopla of 1 yr jump and hopes of similar advancement for others in May VB are the following facts.
1. USCIS is about to raise fees for all immigration related procedures beginning from June 1st
2. Visa quota ends in September and it takes on an average of 4-6 months to process I-485.
Let me detail 2nd step. If they move dates forward by say 1 yr and thousands become eligible for 485. They will accept those cases, get fees from those lucky souls and make the dates unavailable after 1-2 months. Remember last year they were moving dates by 6 months till they made it UNAVILABLE for August and September.

It is evident to anyone following this thread who hijacked it. I was only responding to the OP when you came here with your crappy comments about how people should not enforce personal morals on drug traffickers.
Why don't you explain to everyone how is telling the OP that we do not condone taking or selling drugs something of a personal opinion?
If your next post does not address the issue, then we all know who the real immature person is. Unless you have an answer, I will consider this case closed.
Again, you're the one whose hijacked the thread with your verbal mastur*tion.
LMAO@ "if you consider yourself tough" hahaha
so fighting anonymously over the internet in a forum is your test of being "tough" ?
haha.
Go back and do your IT coding or whatever you do.
I shall reiterate what i stated in my previous post and leave the childish internet bickering to you Mr internet "Sledgehammer" LOL

There is an unpublished appeals office decision supporting the 3+2 equivalency to a US masters. It appears that some adjudicator do not necessarily follow the AAO decision however an attorney told me that if the case goes back to the AAO office then the AAO follows their own decisions. As far as I know the cases I am familiar with all were approved at some point (or are pending) when the AAO case was sited.
As far as the 3 year bachelor degree equivalence to a US bachelor degree there are notes from an AILA liaison meeting where USCIS stating: "Credential evaluations that provide a details comparison of credit hours completed by the beneficiary for the 3 year bachelor's degree program with credit hour required by comparable U.S. bachelor's degree program." Exactly what is meant by this is not clear. However, one might say that this indicates that they are at least open to accepting the 3 year equivalency to a bachelors degree.
Our experience is mixed. We have had many approvals when showing the 3 year degree equivalent to a US bachelor degree and we have had denials. In examining the differences it appears that when the attorney makes a strong case in addition to the evaluation the rate of approvals is higher. We don't have exact statistics since many clients do not report back.
There are some cases where 10+2+3+2 got approved in EB2. But lately CIS has been interpreting the BS requirement to read single source degree. Combination of degrees to equate to the bachelors is not allowed for EB2 purpose.
I agree, they had given approvals under EB2 with a 3 year degree. I have few friends who dont even have Indian masters (like MCA) after 3 year Indian degree (BSc , BCom) i.e 10+2+3+1 year diploma from computer institute, but got approved under EB2 and now citizens.

From Congress quietly returns to immigration (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=167577&postcount=1090) A broad overhaul failed this summer, but an array of smaller measures is under discussion, including ways to legalize certain workers By Nicole Gaouette (nicole.gaouette@latimes.com) | Los Angeles Times Staff Writer,
September 17, 2007
Republicans also are considering a bill that would overhaul visas for high-skilled foreigners.
Senate Republicans are also discussing ways to increase the number of visas for high-skilled workers, now capped at 65,000 a year.

Another idea.. (this will require a small bunch of people only)
Let a group of 10-25 people tie themselves on chainballs and handcuffs (or fetters) and march 1 mile to the USCIS office. Get this event covered by media..
Hold banners like "Free us", "We want EAD", "i485 NOW" and raise a few slogans
In addition someone can dress as Uncle Sam and pretend to whip the prisoners..
I have 2 questions. Why you think only I485 not greencard. Fight and get Greencard? Start protest self. Others join when one start. Why not you?

No lies, salary cannot be raised and people on H-4 cannot work. The article is right.
What I don't get is where they got that the Sept 18 rally will see 5000 of us attending? That's way too little guys, we need at least double that!
Will we even have 5000 people??? I will be (pleasantly) surprised if we do!
Too bad most of us think this rally is a waste of time. I hope they wake up and realize that doing nothing and waiting for their GCs will be an even bigger waste of time if they lose their job 3 years down the line!

Probably you are right. But the issue is not the country limit!!!!!!!!
Take example EB3, how you think will look like EB3 on the next visa bulletin without country limits. EB-3 probably will be June 2002.:eek:
Guys we see a very unhealthy trend here where any disagreement is not tolerated. This forum is for legal skilled immigrants and we sometimes show how unskilled we are when it comes to tolerance of opinion here.
isantem, while I understand the diversity argument, when it comes to skilled immigration it doesn't really help. The data itself shows that the overwhelming number of skilled immigrants come from India/China. If the objective is to let the most skilled immigrants in, then the US should forget about diversity. Unfortunately in terms of volume and talent combined, India and China handily beat the rest of the world. Even if EB3 goes to 2002 so be it, but at least you are treating all skilled immigrants on a level playing field rather than discriminating them based on where they were born. If the US continues to do this, there is a serious danger (and this has been documented) that skilled folks in India/China will no longer find the US attractive. Its already happening with the economy booming in India. In fact, we'll probably see you or your kids standing in line for an Indian or Chinese green card in a few years (and I doubt India or China will focus on diversity when it comes to attracting the most skilled talent).

Giving speedy Green Cards to July Visa bulletin cases will ease the Housing Crisis in US.
Above statement implies, housing crisis is because of not issuing green cards.
BTW, I don't have english blood in me ;););)
your implication is wrong ..you can imply anything from a statement.
the reason I support the above initiative is because it is the most cost effective approach. immigration will/does help housing since americans already have houses and they have fewer or no kids. so immigrants constitute a sizeable chunk. a person I had met once told me - as long as you make money for yr bosses and managers they will do a lot for you (we were talking about filing for GC's) - with the same approach if you include builders and car dealers - you could get them to support IV. but my view is since our community is so divided and selfish ..nothing will ever happen because of us. whatever good happens will be because of USCIS mistakes or else we will get GC's after the long wait

If Republicans control the House, they will be too bitter because they can't repeal the Health Care Reform, and will not let CIR pass in 2011. Best hope is 2012 now. Obama could have easily passed CIR in past 2 years, instead he focused all his efforts on health care..
As was said somewhere else on this forum, "lets take care of the foreigners first and then take care of the dying!" Sounds - what's the word - logical!

Hi Rajakannan:
You fall under either of the following two.
Positive thinking: You are a Gandhi
Realistic Thinking: You are smart .
Smart enough to mislead the crowd to postpone, so that you would get atleast yoursdone.
Man: be realistic.. people are waiting for four years like fools,, as of today there is no difference between 2003 Sept PD or 2007 May PD..
I donot even understand, how you can think like this...
Please donot open thiskind of discussion, people have better things to do in life than reading this..
Myself: I donot even waste a single min on this kind of threads, just wanted to request you to be more realistic...
BTW: can you post your PD details...
best wishes.
Most of us are concerned about short term goal of getting the application to uscis as quickly as possible , but think of the end result of whether your application be accepted if we rush, the uscis can come back and reject at any time from any date as it happened to Eb3-other workers. In any case there is a very good chance that your wife will kill u ;)

Need suggestion how to proceed with my new approved I140.
I have two approved LC.
1. PD EB3 SEP 2003 for which my I140 was approved and I have applied 485 during July 2007.
2. PD EB3 MAR 2002 I got my I140 approval yesterday.
All for same company.
Is it possible for me use my new I140 for my 485 which I have I filled already? I have requested my company’s attorney to find options.
Thank You

Look at it this way -- An additional quota means more regular EB visa's to go around which will help all. Asking to give 20k more GC's for US Graduates will sound more easy on the ears than asking for a general 20k increase.

Immigration Voice member Dr. Murtaza Bahrainwala, who was also quoted in the New York times article today about the July Visa bulletin fiasco and the resulting fallout from it, will be on NBC nightly news with Brian Williams tonight around 5:30 Central time.
The interview also has snippets of interview with USCIS officer as Brian Williams has interviewed USCIS over this issue also. So its a "must watch" thing.
This will be on NBC and that's good coz you dont even need cable to watch this. In your local area, the NBC channel affiliate will be broadcasting the "Nightly news" with Brian Williams.
Local times may vary depending on your local NBC affiliate. Its most likely 5:30 Central time tonight but check your local listings.
Thanks to Dr. Bahrainwala for the interview.
Wow. Very visible place to get on the radar. Can't wait to see it.
If I remember correct in the NYT article, he has spent something like 11yrs waiting to just file the 485.
I hope, really hope that out of all this we can atleast get a visa recapture legislation. It can be considered as undoing the inefficiency of the USCIS over the years.
It will help everyone in the EB line at every stage in many ways.

Omm,
as mammoy has indicated, if u quit before 140 approval, and u get RFE; if there is no employer cooperation ( for whatever reason) . u can be in trouble.
better stay with ur curent employer until it get approved. move if u have to to a different client; if u want to stay in ur existing client , try to negotiate if they can continue u on a lower billing rate. take a cut for now as long as its still above ur h1 prevailing wage etc.

Though the website says sold out, I called just now and got a queen room for 109+tax for one night 17th. Thanks for the help.
I just called and the guy said he has the room ; he then started taking all my information and finally asked when I would arrive. I told him on 17th, 7:30am and he said " oh sorry we don't have any room, I thought you wanted it tomorrow"
So check it up again.
Also, if your room has 2 beds, can you share the room with me? We can split the bills and I needed a company too. I am trying to book a room but so far no luck. I still need to book a flight too. I am flying from Oakland on 16th night. Thanks
