redesign it to say something to the effect of 'YOU ARE SCREWED MORONS UNLESS YOU DONATE RIGHT NOW!' - making a reasoned argument obviously hasn't worked so far as folks just think someone will do the job for them

Jesus! That looks sooo risky. Yes indeed my PD is May 06. Now the question is what if (I know a big IF), but what if, I apply for my 485 (hoping that my 485 will be on EAD/AP for a long time) BUT my 485 gets approved rather quickly and I am not able to marry before that happens -- do I have *any* way to tackle that issue? Or would it then mean that my wife cannot come in US for n number of years after marriage?!
Jesus Christ! Does anything happen without a twist?! :)
Shishya, I am in the same exact boat as you are. No information in hand bro. Waiting for someone to shed light on this. Will talk to the attorney tomorrow morning.

you have a sound logical argument
Ok, among the many replies to what i wrote, a few have been rational discussions. A healthy argument is always encouraged. However, I will dissect the above post line by line to pinpoint exactly why some people completely deserve the treatment that they get. Here I demonstrate how a healthy discussion is hijacked by imbeciles and that is why IV is doomed to failure.
"Till now, i used to believe that USCIS is working hard and eventually they will clear all the backlogs and give the GC to everyone. but by seeing your post, i think i am mistaken, they are doing a big mistake by giving a GC to people like you. "
DOES THIS EVEN MAKE SENSE?? WHAT DOES USCIS BEING HARDWORKING AND CLEARING BACKLOGS HAVE TO DO WITH MY POST ON A RANDOM FORUM?? YOU SIR, MAY BE MISTAKEN ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS AND MY POST MAY BE THE LEAST OF YOUR PROBLEMS.
"Once you become a gc holder and then a citizen, you will question a lot of other things, like giving social security/medicare to poor people who have not contributed and will also question the tax cut(1000$) given to each child when claimed as dependent , as you will argue that , i was doing my second Phd and others who dont have anything else to do, made children and are now claiming the cut. "
LET ME GUESS, YOU THINK MCCAIN IS GREAT, RIGHT? BECAUSE YOU SEEM TO HAVE A CRYSTAL BALL WHICH CAN PREDICT WHAT I WILL DO YEARS FROM NOW AND NOT ONLY THAT BUT FROM A ISOLATED POST ON A RANDOM FORUM, YOU HAVE CREATED A COMPLETE PICTURE OF MY POLITICS?? THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF THE INTERNET, EVEN PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO CANNOT FORM A COHERENT THOUGHT HAVE AN EQUAL SAY IN ANY DISCUSSION.
"All i am saying is that american people are in great danger by allowing people like you to get the GC and citizenship."
SOMEONE PLEASE GO AND WARN THE AMERICAN PEOPLE OF THE GRAVE DANGER !! NOT ONE WORD IN THIS ENTIRE POST OF YOURS CAN EVEN PRETEND TO BE PART OF A LOGICAL THOUGHT !! WOULD YOU CARE TO EXPLAIN WHAT THE DANGER IS? WHY IS IT SPECIFIC TO AMERICAN PEOPLE? YOUR PREVIOUS PARA SEEMS TO IMPLY THAT I AM ANTI-IMMIGRANT, NOW I AM ANTI AMERICAN??
This is precisely why IV hasnt achieved its goals till now and probably never will.

Viral,
There is not much we can do. From Greg's yesterday's latest response that there were very few which were returned/rejected on July 2nd itself and this thread proves that we are not alone ...there are so many and status is unknown. Matthew Oh is also suggesting that it will be receipted. I think we are all safe and with time we will get receipt. Nobody...none of the attorney's are suggesting refiling. Now the thought that whether my packet was properly filed or not? I think that will always be there in the back of one's mind but if the attorney has done his/her job correctly I think we should not worry. Its not rocket science and documents required for filing are well known...so I would discount this risk. It appears we are all safe because as we all know that no rejection notices have been generated, packets if returned should have come back by now as per Greg....All in all it all points towards our packets being on hold there at respective centers....but as you rightly pointed out..towards the last week of July keep calling centers to know..but even before that keep eye on check clearing as that by far is the best and earliest clue that all is well with the case.
Stay tuned and I will keep on updating here on this nice thread that you created...i really appreciate it. Keep up the good work buddy!!
Best Regards,
That's a really sensible post man! Good work :)

Man/Woman, I see so much energy here or could be just shouting. It would be in the best interest to use the energy to contact respective congressman/woman/senator of their area, ask them / request them to bring/pass legislation like SKIL and PACE. Tell them why this bill is needed. Tell them your problem. If everyone of us call congressman and woman and follow up with them on the progress that would be great. Am I doing it? Yep..Not joking IV members are involved.
IV guys can you develop questionnaire which we should ask the operator. What I did is I asked to operator to connect me someone who can help me in bringing immigration legislation. That is how I approached the operator. IV associates what I am getting at is how should people reach right person? As IV people have interacted with many senator office they have better idea what are different staffer there and how they are addressed, and how to reach them.
Let me know what are people thought? I think instead of wasting time, lets get to work. Help yourself by calling senator/congressman/woman. And this is oppurtune time.

Hi smartboy75/prince7,
Any updates?
I checked my former approved H1Bs and found:
1) The Sept. 2000 approved H1B with LUD of June 2007
2) The Feb.2003 approved H1B with LUD 0f April 2006
For both cases, it seems the status is the same as when it was approved in Sept. 2000 and Feb. 2003, nothing new. Maybe these are automatic updates by the computer system.

Do you know if labor substitution for future employment is possible.
I am working with company A and company B have labor approved with 2003 priority date. I want to work with company A till my I-140 labor substitution application (from employer B) is approved by uscis.
Do you know if it is possible?
Thanks in advance!!
Assuming that you can still file for labor substitution, any suggestions on risk involved with substitution for future employment?

Thanks all. I read the petition and I think it is great work. Yes, we need to send messages like this as a group.
Allow me to quote from the petition:
"It is required by law to pay an H1-B a minimum of $40000. "
I'm not challenging anything here, but can someone please point to the source of this? Is this Federal?
Again, I'm not challenging this. I just would appreciate some pointers so that I can learn more.
Thanks again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus again reiterated its opposition to any immigration legislation that does not address an amnesty for illegals and said that they will block any attempts to pass smaller immigration bills.

Though most people here would want retroactive action, I think such a rule will only be applicable for applicants based on a cut off date that will be a future date.
Thats how all laws have been in past.
This is something that is most unwelcome by employers and lawyers and thats why this may have opposition. Especially those consulting companies that thrive on these things.

In reality, many companies who have subsidiaries abroad can use L1 visa program. But H1B offers flexibility that is much desired by many companies. (It is very less abused compared to H1B). No numerical cap on L1B may not go well with many of us. But I am very +ve that the visas are not issued in anticipatory mode like H1B. And why do companies spend 5K if they do not want to get the worker here? Do they like waste money just like that?
Logically this highlights the real problem in the system - numerical caps. If the caps are not there and companies can get a visa-on demand, they will not spend 5K per visa on anticipatory mode. Because there is no need to do that.
So no system is perfect. We have to minimize abuse and act responsibly when it comes to sensitive issues like immigration...
I see only one problem in this logic! Many cases I know of, at least from the 2007 H1B fiasco, paid for the H1Bs through consulting companies FROM THEIR POCKETS. So to answer your question as to why companies would spend $5000 in anticipation, is that they don't. They take it from the applicant. (again I am not saying all do, but there are abusive companies that do).
No cap on visa numbers will never fly... No political environment will be conducive to bringing in unlimited foreign workers without any restrictions. L1 has no caps because it is very difficult to qualify for an L1 visa, as far as I know. If caps in H1 are removed, you can bet there will be severe restrictions imposed on other aspects of the program.

http://www.numbersusa.com/content/
Please contact your U.S. Representative through the Capitol Switchboard (202-224-3121) and ask him/her to do everything possible to stop the passage of three bills in the House Judiciary Committee today: H.R. 5882, a bill that would add an additional 550,000 permanent green cards; H.R. 5924, which would add 20,000 additional foreign nurses per year for three years (plus their families); and H.R. 6020, which would grant amnesty to the illegal-alien spouses, children, brothers, sisters and parents of all 23 million U.S. military veterans
Can we sue this guy from NumbersUSA for misguiding American public and creating hatred against immigrants ?

Freedom and Liberty has been the founding principle of USA. Freedom to change, to improve and to grow has lured immigrants to USA over ages. However, same freedom is denied to LEGAL employment based immigrants. USA boasts of equal rights and opportunity to everyone. However equality is denied to employment based immigrants.
I came to USA in 2001 along with my family, to work as an IT manager. My green card was applied in 2003. I have been dutifully contributing to US economy, in form of my labor and taxes. However, due to immigration laws, I am stuck to a particular job profile. I can not accept any promotions or job enlargement offers. I am even barred from attending full time school, to enhance my skills. My dependents are not eligible to any educational aids, since we are not green card holders yet. I can not buy a house for the fear of losing it. In case of job loss, I have to seek a job in same job profile within 2 months, or loose whatever I have worked hard for in prime years of my life. In spite of paying all taxes, I am not eligible for any kind of unemployment benefits.
I have been waiting patiently for last five year for my green card. Looking at the snail pace of process it will be several decades before, I get it. Has US stopped caring about intellects at all? Why can�t US politicians see a potential brain drain coming?
I request you to take reforming immigration process, making USCIS accountable on top priority. The law should also have a maximum wait period for green card identified. No one should be put through an ordeal of an endless wait.

You are hitting the right buttons here! You can say it is either laziness or fright/jitters or the comfort of current H1B approval/stamp that is making the large populace to sit tight.
Guess what, once some of the battles are won (we can never win all - they will always be ongoing), we should either knight pappu or induct him to "IV Hall of Fame".
Thank you Janilsal. People like me come and go after finishing their work. I just want IV to be remembered for getting rid of retrogression and solving the GC problems that plague hundreds of thousands of high skilled immigrants. each and every member of IV is important in order to achive this. one member or even the entire core cannot do it alone if there is no support and efforts from IV members. IV members are more important than one member in this struggle.
