I understand that you guys are frustrated but I did not open this thread to make empty noise. I have written to six different organisations and ACLJ only gave me a reply that they would be unable to process our per courntry quota lawsuit. There are thousands of federal court immigration lawyers in the country who would do this lawsuit albeit with more money than these non profit organisations. If any of you guys want to make a difference in your lives and lives of others pls co-ordinate this event of contacting various immigration lawyers.
Dear XXX:

Read between the lines and this actually confirms what I am saying all along.
Equal Opportunity Law does not apply to Immigrant Visa allocation. And that's why any legal course does not have any solid base.
Equal Employment Opportunity applies only to applicants who are eligible to apply for that job. It does NOT apply to immigrant visa allocation and any other visa benefit such as H-1B approval.
In other words, Equal Employment Opportunity is applicable to US Citizens and residents with work authorization (Green Card holders, EAD holders, person with H-1B approved) and this is limited to job hiring, job promotion, discharge, pay, fringe benefits, job training, classification, referral, and other aspects of employment. This does not extend to immigration benefit or opportunity lost due to lack of immigration benefit (such as I-485 approval).

Please
It's a sad day to see IVers granting each other 'red squares' , and committed members asking each other to 'shut up'.
We are quick in jumping at each others throat for no apparent real reason ! Being part of a forum is sharing space with others, with those whom you disagree, and those who disagree with you. Argue logically, but don't make it a personal fight.
Don't agree with someone, make your displeasure known. If things seem to be getting hotter, ignore the other person. Live and let live. We have bigger issues to worry here - GC mess - instead of who said what !

I am currently on H1 and plan to get married in India next month and file 485 for me and wife next month. She will be able to travel with me on H4. If she starts using EAD after getting it, does that invalidate my H1? I plan to continue with the same employer on H1.

I have been thinking about whether to attend the rally or not from past few weeks.
Attending the rally would require me to take a day off. Finally today without thinking twice I just went to my manager asked if I can take day off on 9/18 instead compensate the work in the following saturday. It was approved and I am attending the rally on 9/18!
I am feeling so good now.

Hi,

�Is the Service Center processing dates based on Received Date or Notice date on the I 485 Receipt Notice??
�Also I see many times people talking about Receipt Date is it Received date or Notice Date On the I 485 Receipt Notice??
Thanks

i dont think its a controversy. mr. Gotcher does not agree with the interpretation. Maybe its a way to generate some additional revenues for his firm by increased traffic to the blog and potentially a class action lawsuit on behalf of the ROW people.

Hi Ron,
First of thank you for all your useful replies. I just want your opinion to convert my EB3 India to EB2.
My details.
PD: June -2003.
Country: India.
Also when can my PD will be current in future. Please suggest.
Appreciate your help.
**************************************
I think it would be a good idea to make the move. There isn't enough data available for me to say anything more than it's going to be quite a while before your priority date becomes current.

Sanju,
I did not expect such a cheap statement from a senior member like you. Infact posts like yours creates separate groups.
Please try to contribute towards achieving the goal. If you do not like our posts please ignore this thread.
Please do not call any one as IDIOT..
Thanks!
Look at the two group of idiots here, each one trying to agrue for a specific provision to benefit him ONLY, and finding foolish reasons to support their arguments. Insane idiots or educated illitrates? You deicde. Either way, they are both the same.

Same here ... for EAD and AP (for me or dependent) my company does not reimburse these fees. They will however reimburse if I have to use EAD to work due to unavoidable H1 extension issues/ inability to extend beyond 6 yrs etc. I think that is a fair and reasonable policy in general
what I mean to say is, if i do self filing my employer will not reimburse it and if fragomen files it then fragomen gets directly paid by my employer.

What end result you think would be?
There are several benefits to media coverage.
You create awareness and build alliances.
You give the other party (in this case congress) an opportunity to correct the problem.
You get reporters to do additional investigate work that may help you build a case (This has already happened).
You have an opportunity to correct public misconceptions, such as that all ITIN filers are illegal aliens, and thereby reduce the chance that the public will support such action in the future.

Like I said, its a combination of the 2 main things, the efficiency of processing and the quota limits. Changing either 1 without the other other probably won't get us far.
Yes, USCIS IS capable of processing quickly (for example, my own case - but I'd say I was very VERY lucky, rather than an indication of system wide improvements). Remember, my GC was approved whilst my PD was not current, and I am still baffled why this happened. Having talked to many people about it, there is a strong suspicion of "squeaky wheel" helping.
What I was trying to say was - the perceived improvement in speed in the last quota 1/4 of this year (May- Sept) was NOT because USCIS suddenly streamlined and improved their processing speed. It was because there was a backlog of approved applications just waiting for PDs to move so that visa numbers can be assigned.
If I am offending anyone who tries to predict on visa bulleting cut-off days, I am sorry for doing so in advance. The agencies involved in this process themselves are out of clue and it is clearly pointed out by ombudsmen himself. I am still puzzled how they derive the cut-off days every month without such statistics? In the past there were numerous statistics regarding the cut-off date prediction and not even came close to what is getting published. This is one department who defy any logic in determining the cut-off dates. I think it is mere waste of time and energy in trying to do so at our end based on my past experience.
Thanks

...Ahimsa, I hope you understand this is a platoonic conversation between us...
If you mean "platonic", yes ours is no doubt a friendly conversation.
I agree CIR will be modified but our EB reliefs (for existing EB applicants) are not controversial (ilegal immigration reliefs and H-1B increase are the most controversial), right?
I hope there would be some form of CIR with EB reliefs that both Dems and President would agree on.
Thanks

The Congressman who spoke at our rally had a lot of good intentions, but then he started talking about how "illegal immigrants are also people who look like me"(meaning Caucasian/White) and he mentioned the thousands of illegal Irish immigrants living in Boston, who have a group called "Legalize the Irish Now".... those comments had no place in our rally of highly-skilled LEGAL immigrants! And that was a Congressman talking. EDUCATION IS THE WORD, and we need to invest in it NOW!! Let's go guys! Ideas!???

If you e-file then you provide information for both. First I-485 EAD and then OPT card
If you do paper filing only I-485 EAD.
Depending on how you have applied, furnish information.
I have summarized my experiences, which is enriched by others in the following thread http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737. You may find some useful information.
Thanks Dhundun for your help!

But when i am told that I dont have access to this thread or that thread because I am not a donor...I do have the right to question if this organization actually represents all immigrants or just the donors?? If the motto of IV becomes "Change for fairness and justice (For Donors Only)" then it would make a lot more sense to me.
are you asking for access to threads based on the motto? Now that is like the beggars feeling entitled to others money, or illegals felling entitled to citizenship.
Lose the feeling of entitlement - its only going to make you look like a loser.
I did like the idea of "earned" access to forums. So if someone has sent "X" no. of faxes through IV or contributed by actively and noticeably and is recommended by "X" no. of people they should have access to paid forums for a defined timespan (eg. earn 1 months access by sending faxes) Letters are not really verifiable so not adding this here. Going the earned path would not alienate many members who may not have contributed recently - but nevertheless are still contributing otherwise. People who have contributed in the past can be retroactively given access for a month for every $25 they've contributed.

Given that 23800 letters is appearing tough to meet can we tweak the approach such that a survey is created on IV and people can respond to it (since more people read IV than actually respond to requests) and we can use those numbers to prove the number of people behind the idea.
Is that a possibility?
