Your motivation is very simple, lets say there are 10 people in line with one service counter, the service counter processes only 10 apps at a time, but if you are an Indian in line your time taken to process is longer. Now what are the solutions? We can speed the Indians in line by opening up new counters to service them, for that we need more money (aka contributions). Now 2 people are processed in parallel . So new people can enter the line (in the past they could not until the dates got current). I hope you get the message very akin to what you would do in the semi conductor industry. I am guessing your dates are not current and hence you are unable to apply, now more people in line getting processed means dates move and you will be current, then apply get an EAD now your wife can work. Then the US starts to become like heaven.

As if things weren't enough complex, today my friend told me one more thing about finger prints. His PD is 2004 Sep EB2, so he called USCIS to know the status of his application. Then they told him that his finger prints got expired (as per them they expire after every 15 months). So they will invoke the notice to get him an appointment for finger prints. They also mentioned if finger prints have expired then they can't process the application unless it gets renewed.
Although this is first hand information, I was very surprised and not sure whether or not to believe the information given by USCIS call center.

To OP: Why didn't you add your parents to your GC application as your dependents? Check if you can do so now..?

The reason the processing dates matter is because by the time USCIS gets to process our I765 and I131 the dates would have retrogressed and then what happens is a million dollar ?
What is your point, Tnite? EAD and AP can filed/issued even if the PD is retrogressed. MY PD was retrogressed after I filed I-485 and EAD and AP were issued?

Agreed the statement "Indian Americans are brilliant" is too much generalisation, but Many of the immigrants from India and China are here because they are highly educated, so they put a lot of emphasis on academics, as a sports star might on his/her children in sports, likewise a movie star.
Its better to be guided by aspirations than to be misguided by carelessness.
This is the third time an Indian American has won the competition in a row.
BTW, the huge number of Indian American partcipants is not due to the fact that " Indian Americans" are brilliant... These children (at least most) are partcipating not becasue they have talent but they are being forced to by the aspirations of their parents.
All the Indian American children are crying, sitting on the lap of their parents etc... See any other kid who lost, they were cool.

A Quick Question.
Can parents stay here for 5 1/2 months go back for say a month or two and come back again for 5 1\2 months? Would this pattern be suspected during visa renewal?
sachuin23...don't do this...they can revoke your parents 10 year visa and they need to go and get visa again..this is too much stress on parents.
i know, my friend's parents did this...while entering they were held for many many hours. Finally they got entry permit and told them for 1 year, they are not suppose to enter back again. If they do, visa will be revoked.

Here is the first cut at story on 'Issues with GC + Retrogression 101' for media & public. Here goes:
Why there is no green light on green cards?
- By Vijay Reddiar
There have been lots of discussion and spotlights on H1-B issues in the past. One of the least heard, but the most pressing issue that continues to plague day-to-day lives of thousands of high-skilled legal immigrant workers in the US is Retrogression causing deep anxiety, frustration and considerable delay in processing and approving of permanent residency, also called Green Card.
For employment-based green cards, every country has a fixed number of immigrant visas or quota on a per-year basis. When I-485 adjudication or adjustment of status from non-immigrant to immigrant status (example H1-B to Permanent Resident) successfully concludes, it leads to approval of green card. This approval requires a visa number to be available. But, if the visa quota for a country has been used up, visa numbers become unavailable for that country. This unavailability of visa number is the effect of retrogression, wherein, the US Department of State, based on the current demand for the visas decides allocation of how many visa numbers can be released to meet the demand and be in conformance with the pre-set quota.
Employers file for green cards for skilled professionals to obtain a legal immigrant status for future employment. Skilled professionals who have green card processing pending typically wait for their green cards to be approved for an average period of 5 years. During this period, they have very limited, if any, freedom to exercise choice with changing jobs, or getting a raise or promotions, being with the same job, title, position and employer with no way out until it gets approved. The only way out would be to risk losing your green card or having to start all over again. Family members of such skilled professionals share the pain as well. Spouses who would like to obtain jobs and attain financial freedom do not have the legal rights to work until they at the least have an employment authorization. Children of such professionals who apply for college cannot benefit from federal government loans, but instead need their parents to seek private loans. Becoming a legal immigrant has become an increasingly challenging and frustrating experience as has been noted by the experiences of each individual of this community. Unless a legislative reform is made, green cards are not only going to be tough, but also seemingly impossible to materialize.
Immigration Voice, a non-profit organization in the US, founded in Nov 2005 has begun grassroots level effort to alleviate the untold sufferings of high skilled professionals and has been working actively through volunteer members of the organization, that has grown to 9,000+ members in just more than a year. Immigration Voice recently hired Patton Boggs, a top public affairs firm for lobbying efforts towards the immigration goals of the high skilled worker community. Immigration Voice is now heavily engaged pursuing CIR or the Comprehensive Immigration Reform which will be introduced in the Senate in early March 2007 and then proceed to the House before it will be signed by the President to be enacted. This may very well be the ray of hope for the thousands of immigrants stranded on the not-so-green-now land of green cards.

Infopass appt for Interim EAD was not helpful at all.
They suggested the same that I did earlier, ie to fax USCIS hotline about my situation along with letter from emp saying that I am at risk of losing job.
I have done that several times, still no luck.
My EAD expires on aug 30th (yah, just 2 more business days).
Did everything in my hands, now just prepared to lose my job.
Surprising thing is I saw 2 soft LUDs on aug 25th and and 26th but still no approval nor RFE, case status still pending.
I know they are looking at my case, but doing nothing.
My wife's EAD was approved a month ago.
I asked my lawyer (from a big firm) if I will have a case on USCIS in case if I lose my job. She said, USCIS is famous for this kind of processing for 1000's still the cases wont stand against them.
I wld appreciate any suggestions/thoughts?
You can check your senator's website. There will be some information on how to contact them. I think usually, they have someone in their front office who takes care of this request.
I requested to expedite and i got an email last week saying the request was accepted and will get result within 14days.. its been already 10 days and so far nothing happened.
Did the email you received specifically say that your request has been accepted and you will know the decision within 30 days?

Nola,
Thanks for clarifying. IV appreciates support from LGBT community. You have done amazing amount of work for IV in the recent past. Some of the Bay area folks still remember your leadership at 5K run at San Francisco Golden Gate. You created a decent amount of buzz by bringing along your friends all the way to California.
IV members: Having said that, I would just like to remind some IV members to be mindful of the fact that we enjoy support from diverse groups of people and it makes sense to extend reciprocal courtesy when responding to some of the posts here e.g. the UAFA bill etc.
Cheers!
g
Weldonsprings, you might be mistaken about the UAFA bill which is up for a vote on June 3, 2009. The intent of the UAFA is to allow US Citizens and permanent residents to sponsor their foreign-born partners for permanent residency by means of demonstrating a "permanent partnership". Let me re-emphasize, this bill is geared primarily for the LGBT Community of which I am a proud member, so if you are supporting this bill, my thanks to you.
[QUOTE=WeldonSprings;343823]That is correct! The bills in the house and senate coming up for discussion does not mention visa re-capture. However, Please look at the titles-don't they sound the same. The contents are different. The content of S.424 is to give permanent residents the same STATUS as US citizens so that they can sponsor their wives, parents, brothers, sisters and doggies...So an amendment is necessary. That's why I have written in the original post-

Useful Information. Please let us know if you indeed got the copy of your 140 from USCIS.
It will help all those who want to port their PD while shifting companies without being at the mercy of the employer.

I recommend every one writing their own words rather than doing the copy/paste. If I were to recieve 10 emails with exactly the same content, it might make me feel like some ONE just sent 10 diff emails. IMHO, Its a good idea to write the gist of the story in your own words. Save it and use it for all the people in the media.

Hi,
I have tried to find out my labor info from this web site and I could not.
My PD is Aug 2004/EB3 and the labor is approved by Dallas Backlog Center around Jan 2007. Which year file do you think I can find my labor info from this web site?
You can find everything about your Labor stuff from here - www.flcdatacenter.com
Good luck!

It will be intersting to see how Indian Economy will flare, which is essantially driven by Outsourcing, which will take the greatest hit.
Remember Indian Economy's engine is outsourcing, once it starts to see the $ exchange pressure, forget about people coming to US, think of what will happen to standard of lving in Inida.
Can India still maintain the new glow with dollar coming down , I doubt as the Govt of India has not made any big steps to make permanent changes to infrastructure set up.

The suggestion for multiple simultaneous rallies didnt get pushed before DC rally as it would have possibly diluted DC rally attendance. But It looks like multiple simultaneous rallies will have an huge impact since
-people can travel to their nearest location so more attendance
-simultaneous local media coverage + more national media coverage
-sum of parts greater than the total.
Possible locations -
West Coast - Bay area & Seattle
Midwest - Chicago?
Southwest - Dallas, Austin or Houston
Northeast - NY?
Southeast - Atlanta?

It cannot be people vs terriblething. It could be state/federal agency v. terriblething. I agree that credibility of the complaint can be easily attacked if wife gives contradicting statement.
terriblething, you may want to read this
http://www.divorcenet.com/states/new_jersey/domestic_violence_defense
YOu are right, it would be "STATE" Vs terriblething. I wonder, why the neighbour gave "false" statement of hearing "help!...."?
Terriblething, looks like you were not in good terms with your neighbours or must have pissed them off in one way or other.
