Instead of fighting EB3 or EB2, can we throw up this idea -
Whatever be the priority date - whether EB2 or EB3, a person should submit proof of filing Income Tax from the time they were in US. This way a person who came in 2001 and filed for labour in say 2002 under EB3 - will have higher priority (provided he/she submits Tax filing proof for 8 years) than a person under EB2 with 2006 priority date and filed taxes only for say -4 years. (or the same person who moved from EB3 to EB2 can also benefit from this) i.e. the priority should be determined based on how much a person has contributed to US economy. For the Govt. to generate some money, all GC applicants can be asked to pay a small fee(say $100 per applicant) to IRS to get proof of filing income tax returns.
Just my 2 cents.

You've got it.
You do not have to copy the USCIS. Be nice and polite. Explain that you applied for EAD more than 90 days ago. Provide your I-765 receipt number.
Ask them to follow procedures in Aytes memo. Show the memo. Ask them to contact NSC where your I-765 is pending and alert them about your situation. (Contact NBC or Service Center to initiate EAD production�either Interim or Non-Interim). Ask them to provide Notice to you acknowledging status inquiry. If IO refuses to do that, ask to talk to the supervisor and repeat the above. It works. Basically, the federal regulations require them either to issue EAD in 90 days or issue interim EAD.
Do i need to fill out another 765 form for an interim EAD?
Thanks.

As USCIS is swarmed with applications any idea how long do you think it will take, as we know this not a normal situation.
Inputs appreciated.

Few months back, 2 DMV officers gave me a tough time in CT. I wrote strong complaint and got a reply that, it will be allright if I go again and I went for the 3rd time and got it without hasstles.
Here is what happened
Dear Mr. Vemula,
This reply is in response to your email of 5/20/06 in which you
describe
the difficult time you have had in obtaining a CT license. Please be

It shows that the interpretation of law is not same everywhere.
some people get it easily and some dont. Bridgeport, CT DMV is very crowded most of the time and tough to get things done. There are a lot of people of a kind that come there and it is tough. you must try Westport etc kind of areas next time.

actually, lets make another category 3.c. people who have shifted jobs after ead using AC21 and now want to or already have started a company for side business (that may be in the labor/perm cert job description or outside)...
So, I am 3.c. and so is perhaps matreen... after digesting my conversation with the lawyer for two three days now, i am feeling that it might be worth taking the risk of doing a side business. after all, we are not doing anything that is uncivil or criminal... just trying to boost our incomes and perhaps contribute to an industry or something like that... that noble intention could be viewed as an exclusive intention in relation to the intention to continue permanent employment with the new GC sponsoring employer... what do you guys think?
3 c. is very similar to 3 a. Although you have used AC21, you are still working on a job that is as per the Labor Certification (if not, then you have bigger problems as AC21 can only be used for same/similar jobs). 3 c. *might* add a level of complexity for your case, but I think you should be fine. The reason I say this is that AC21s have a higher chances of RFEs especially if your previous employer revoked the I-140.
But again, we should cross the bridge when we get there and as long as we are doing something legal, we should be fine even though it might be a grey area. Being future entrepreneurs, we need to get accustomed to taking risks :)

Arunmohan, this is exactly what I have been doing. Contacting local congressman and senator, but in vain. I agree with you that they respond, but it doesn't transfer to results. What I believe should be done, irrespective of EB2, EB3 etc are these following steps.
1) Local chapters prepare a letter to their local congressman and senators asking them to process gc backlogs in the order of labor filing date by USCIS. This is applicable to EB3 / EB2 / EB1 of any country. In respective categories GC with Pending I-485 applications should be processed by labor filing dates.
2) Conduct a month-long drive to make members visit a place nearby their residence to sign and fill their details along with the letter.
3) Send Original letter along with signatures to senator & copies to congressman/congresswoman.
4) Send copy of the same letter to the chapter nearest to washington d.c. and we should forward that copy to the president's office.
I know this sounds a lot. But this will be a co-ordinated effort & i am sure if we give members a month to sign, majority will be included and will be a co-ordinated effort from iv. but this is just my thought.

My PD is April 2002 which has become current as per the june bulletin. My I-140 was approved in April 2007 and the NVC created the case on May 15th 2007.
I have opted for consular proceesing.
My questions is at what stage of the further processing do i get a visa number allocated ?
Is it when NVC sends the fee receipt to my attorney or is it when the case is transferred to the consulate ?
I just want to know at what stage now i become insulated from any possible retrogression in the coming months.
Any help much appreciated
thanks

EXPLAINATION I GOT FROM USPS CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT JULY 02 BEING THE FIRST DAY AFTER LONG WEEKEND THE GUY MIGHT HAVE FORGOTTEN TO CHANGE THE DATE.

You're most welcome, a big thank you to the core team for having followed up and for doing what was necessary to turn this into reality. I have shared the article with some of my colleagues, and they all agree that the article hit the nail on the head in as many words in regards to the problems that we all undergo as GC and LC applicants, problems that the public at large does not know about and would not otherwise not have knowledge about were it not for IV. Lets keep up the team spirit, the momentum and steer IV to even greater heights! We can do it and we certainly will.

EB3 folks need to be the most worried people if they do not have Greencards. Unless there is any sense of desperation and expressed need, do not expect any lawmaker to vote for any greencard bill .

I have EAD approved and 485 pending over 180 days. But 140 is still in process. My company decided to lay me off. What options do I have ?
1. The company is not mean to revoke my 140 unless it is required by law to revoke 140 for all lay offs, Please advise.
2. What options do i have now to retain my GC process
Popoye,
You have a little tricky situation at hand, but you'll be okay if what you wrote is true - Your employer will not revoke your pending I-140. Not only that, they have to be nice enough to respond to any RFEs that come for your case. they can state that the imimgration application they filed for you is for a future position.
Also, USCIS has a guideline about these cases. They are supposed to see if your I-140 was 'approvable' if it had been adjudicated within 180 days or before you leave the company, which I think it should be.
I understand there are some anxious days ahead for you, but If I had to bet, I would bet on successful result of your case in the end :).
Just make sure that your old employer doesn't revoke your I-140
BTW, when was your I-140 filed?
cheers

We have tried very hard to separate ourselves and not be a hostage of other issues. Now there is more awareness on the greencard issue being separate from H1B. There is also more awareness that Immigration problem is not just about Illegals. There are legal immigrants too in this country suffering.
Pls post letters to the editor. Last week we are able to get CNN correct their incorrect reporting of the rally due to effort from everyone on the forum.
Dear Editor,
Thank you for your coverage today about an issue that is critical to the growing high tech. economy in the USA. The issue about the need for expansion of highly skilled immigrant visas to sustain this high growth part of our economy is something that is gaining increasing acceptance from lawmakers.
Having reported on that however, you did both this debate and your readers a tremendous disservice by mentioning in the same paragraph that "In a poll 56% of Republicans earning more than $75,000 annually would "strongly" or "partially" agree with a candidate who would bar illegal immigrants from path to citizenship."
What was the relevance of this fact at that juncture of the piece considering you are discussing legal high-skilled immigration? I am sure you are aware that illegal immigration is not an issue in highly skilled immigration. Most people already realize there is opposition of republicans to illegal immigration, we saw the implosion of CIR on the senate floor this summer. The debate over immigration is a highly emotive one for the American public, the last thing they need is an influential newspaper such as yours associating these issues at a time when CIR is dormant. This is the type of reporting that can misguide the public.
Please correct this erroneous association which I suspect was an unintentional oversight given the impeccable journalistic reputation of your newspaper.

We didn't hear back from you. Please let us know the information you got from USCIS. Here lot of people waiting for your post (Prabably GOODNEWS from you).
I read many places that you can attach case approval status if you have receipt number. USCIS will verify the beneficiary and will port priority date. Has anybody verified with attorney?
