Got my approval but my spouse hasn't yet received one.
We e-filed it together through the same account. My LIN was constantly getting updated with the status but not my husband. I also received the notification when my application was approved. I got my approval in the mail today too (about 1 month turnaround time) .But we haven't received any notification on my husband's case. And the online status hasn't changed either. Did anybody else face this? Not sure how to follow-up. Any pointers?

That is why IV core wants people to sign up for Recurring contributions....
So that they have an idea of their resources in terms of Cash...and can pursue our objective pro-actively rather than on the spur of the moment like it hapened in senate over last 3 weeks.
Please sign up for recurring contributions...even if its $20/month
Still Less than your cable bill per month

From Immigration bill drew fire from both sides (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/washingtondc/la-na-immig9jun09,1,3157639.story) By Janet Hook and Nicole Gaouette, LA Times Staff Writers, June 9, 2007
Just one anti-immigration group, NumbersUSA, has sent more than 100,000 faxes and made thousands of calls to Congress since Wednesday. The intensity of that anger propelled some of the bill's opponents.
To make it a fair debate and an honest opinion the senate and the congress should take the SSN of all anit immigrant groups and analyse their credit history work record etc...

Hope this becomes true.
It is very simple.
Old Vertical spillover system
EB2 ~ 44 k
EB3 ~ 89 k
NEW, Horizontal spillover system
EB2 ~ 89 k
EB3 ~ 44 k
The above will be definitely true for FY2009. It might be a little less for FY2008 as they changed the system mid-year. EB2 will become current by end of FY2009 to 2010. Without legislative action, EB3 will get max relief then - vdlrao is correct.

I have really had good experiences when i renewed my passport, my wifes passport and also when i applied for my childrens PIO card. On each ocassion the documents arrived before time and the service at the SFO consulate was great when i called them with a concern. On all 4 ocassions i use the $20 option to get the document by Fedex. We spend thousands on the recurring nightmare at USCIS, $20 for peace of mind is not a big deal.
I have also observed that we tend to get overly agressive when we talk to indian govt officials here. I think we expect bad service and we mentally prepare ourselves to fight. I am not saying that all do this but some of my friends did concur with the thought. There are many geuine cases where there is a problem, as some desi govt officers are sticklers for making sure that forms are in 'order'.:D
Same with me (again SFO consulate in late 2004). No issue and everything happened smoothly. When I called to enquire on the status, they responded very professionally.
Again there are several factors to it. If the person recently came to USA, may be he will be much more polite and as days goes on, there true self start erupting OR its just they easily show their frustrations given there job security or could be we are loosing our respect with fellow indians as well recent times after all INS and federal governments are doing to aliens. Just my thoughts

Here's what they got that we don't
1) Numbers - 12 million new voters indebted to them for life, is too hard for some national-level politicians to resist
- We are barely 1 million. Given we are "highly-skilled" most of us never likely to vote in elections (to avoid jury duties)
2) Strong support from US Citizens who vote for ethnic reasons. Whether anyone likes it or not legalization of "undocumented" has become a ethnic issue. More powerful than our international/global approach, because there are 25% of US population belong to that ethnicity ( and they also vote in greater percentages than the natives)
- Chinese/Indian/Phillipino/others USC/LPRs communities are miniscule in number. And most of them don't give a you-know-what.
3) They have the strongest Motivator - FEAR - it's a matter of 'survival' and not just pursuit of happiness like us. God forbid, we go back to our countries we won't starve there. These guys don't have any jobs in their countries and will be living in abject poverty . They risk death in the desert, whenever they go for vacation back home. Cops, criminals, USCIS, abusive Employers, Nativists - everyones at their back. Some of them are married to US citizens/LPRs. They face the prospects of getting separated from their families.
- We don't have such a strong motivation. If let's say there was a NumbersUSA sponsored bill to bring all legal immigration down to 50,000, believe me, DC would've been swamped by protesters. We may have met, even exceed initial projection of 10,000 participants. You'd have seen a true multi-ethnic protest respresented by every nation on the Atlas.
4) Money is not a problem for them. Many of them are paid off the books and have never paid Income Tax, SS Tax etc. There are also very strong political organizations, PACs (Political Action Committees) supporting. There are many USCs/LPRs contributing to election campaigns on their behalf.
- We pay all taxes. There is no PAC supporting the cause of EB immigrants exclusively ( ImmigrantsList is a PAC that supports all immigration including "undocumented").
Unless a LPR starts a PAC ( Aman?) starts collecting funds from other former-IV LPRs and US citizens and starts campaign contributions we continue to have a limited voice ( paying a Congressmans election campaign is will catch his/her attention more than paying a lobbyist to talk to them)
So it's not them having many negatives. It's us EB immigrants who face the strongest odds.
Just an analogy please dont think i am against undocumented fellows.. They are definitely facing a bigger problem than us!
Compare the following
Nondocumented vs. Documented Legals
1] Not well educated / Highly Skilled
2] Not much computer savvy / Mostly everyone should be
3] Not have enough resources to advertise their struggle!
/ Trying all ways to advertise & campaign
4] Do not have enough monetary collection to run a rally / advt /
set up a website
/ Have some collection to do the basics
5] Come here illegally and yet have the courage to demand a legal status openly...
/ Feel shy or sorry for demanding a legal status soon! (for those who dont think
this is worthwhile)
Inspite of all these negatives , they have grouped up so well ! highly commendable. I dont know what we can learn from them, only that they are all in the same boat , but we are in different ones .. as some have got gc, some have got receipts, some are ready to wait as they have just applied, some are just not interested!!

Are you from different world. Yes it is necessary even to get the H1. Now I understand why the anti-immigrants are targetting us. Do you mean to say the English speaking people diminished this country. Can we replace all these guys with mullas. What are you trying to say..
Hello ... I m responding to a some one who dis-respected my fellow citizens . So what do you say English speaking guys are great IT professionals ? To work on computers you need brian and understand bits and bytes not english .
I think you got my message wrong all I m saying is you dont have to be a great english communicator to qualify for EB2 , unless you are applying as professor .
In 70s most of the towns having only local language schools and stuided in local language schools , thay may be part of reason why some of them dont communicate well ..That doesnt mean they can not work on computers ...

I've been working with Christine Troy since 2003.
She helped me file H-1b extension twice, going for the 3rd time.
Filed RIR (approved), I-140 (pending) and I-485 just this week.
She does ALL the paperwork and doesn't have paralegals.
She keeps a modest office on Market St. at Powell, which is a convenient location. Doesn't charge much for consultations ($50-75).
And most of all she ALWAYS returns my e-mail within the same day or by next day. Better communication by e-mail than a phone call.
Very personable and great communication with my employer.

I am not on AF payroll, so please don't use your choicest abuse on me if it seems like I may be defending their actions a bit here. What I really want to do is give my experience with AI and the facts that comes sout of it and see if you would agree something similar could have happend with our fellow citizens on AF.
I was travelling on AI ORD-MUM via FKFT. Similar to what happend at CDG airport, just minutes before my plane was about to land at FKFT, the right engine shut off and at FKFT airport, it was reported that a mechanic from London etc will have to fix it. After 3 hrs it was reported that it cannot be fixed and a new plane from somewhere in Europe will have to come and carry us to Mumbai. In the meantime they gave us coffee and fruits. Old and people who were less able got some blankets etc to lay down, but in general, mist of them were just loitering inthe airport. AFter 5 hrs or so, all US passport holders (and of course EU) were told, they could go out and stay at a hotel and come back next morning, which would be the earliest the plane would take off. All the Indian passport holders were told,we could not go out due to visa restrictions. But AI started negotioations with the Polecie of Germany to see if we could get some type of temp visa. 12 hours after the start of the ordeal AI was able to obtain a group visa for us at midnight from the German Policei. Note that most of the admisnistartive work to get the visa was really managed by the Indian passengers themselves. Ther was probably 1 AI personnel to do/direct some of the things, but after a while the polecie started talking surectly to us on next steps.. All through this we went to have 3 scerurity checks at different points in the airport. We were put in the same hotel ( as swanky Marriott in heart of FKFT) as the US/WU citizens. We spend the next 36 hrs(yea, there was no plane from Europe to carry us) in the hotel before we got a plane from Mumbai to take us back.
So putting all this in context, I was happy that AI did help us when the situation was dire.with hotels and food etc. But they cannot help you with the Visa situation. I am assuming that it was the same predicament for AF. I agree not treating the pasengers well in terms of politeness, food , temporary lounge etc is not an excuse, esp at CDG which is AF's home.

Yes, you are right. It shouldn't take years to make a decision even if it is complicated. I think they may be not working on those cases at all. That may be the reason, they didn't comeup with any decision. It will be good if DOL gives the operating procedures and comeup with fair action on what they are really doing.
My case was filed in 2002 under traditional labor certification. DOL never questioned anything or asked for any clarifications (so I assume there were no complications). The job was advertised in last April (it was a little newspaper advertisement with few lines and very generic job requirements). There were no resumes received. But still I have not received my labor approval. So what baffles me most is why has the DOL been not able to taken any decision on my case even after 5 years. One of my friends who applied in traditional labor two years after me has already received his LC. Let us say, for argument sake, the case was complicated. How complicated can it be to be delayed by several years, not months? We probably would get answers to these questions only if we drag the DOL to court and make them explain.
