UPDATE: My company attorney suggested talking about this in April, and I am nervous about waiting till then in limbo - things are only going bad to worse, I might as well find a job at a place which will sponsor a PERM sooner rather than later.
I request you to PM me if you have any leads for such companies might still be a good bet for filing a PERM.
uhh..damn immigration process..
Maybe your company attorney is busy until April filing for H1B lottery and is busy. That maybe more profit for him. Maybe you should consider getting an attorney yourself to do the greencard process. Someone who can get started ASAP and look after your interests.

I am a typical EB worker and have all the insecurities of a person working on EAD/H1 in a distant land. Though gainfully employed seeing job losses all around makes me anxious. There is no back up if i lose my job as being on EAD/H1 does not give me any unemployment benefit, no breathing period though i have dutifully paid SS taxes without a break for last several years. With stock market tanking i dread seeing my 401K statement. Selling my House to move somewhere else might be very difficult, if not impossible.
Any setback on GC would hit me both financially ( money to spend on MTR, pay pricey lawyers , look for not so cheap health insurance, and biggest of all - loose the steady pay check )
as well as mentally ( to look for a new job, worry about same/similar classification, move to new place, unable to service my mortgage , put up with not so pleasant working conditions etc ).
I am away from friends and family so no psychological support as well when needed.

usually, non-profit work may seem thankless & there'll always be someone who can find something -ve...I mean you have so much population that difference of opinion is easy. But, non-profit work is always more close to the heart...so...keep chugging...IV team has done GREAT work till now...appreciate it much!

I agree 100%. Anything that affects business and competitiveness of the US will be always more important than sob stories of individuals. Latter is collateral:)
just an idea, but the reporter should probably speak to the employers of people who have left, and highlight instances where they have found it difficult to replace the departing employee.
USCs are probably more impressed by effect on the US than the hardships faced by us

The D70 is said to be of better build quality than the digital Rebel. The image quality, for all practical intents and purposes, should be considered so close that it's not a concern in choosing one vs. the other. Of course, you pay $200 - $300 more for the D70, and you buy into the Nikon system (which some people have already written off as dead and jumped over to Canon), so that might be a disadvantage, depending on how you view the current camera market. Note that I own neither yet, shoot with a film SLR, but would buy a D70 if I could afford one... so take these statements with a few grains of salt. ;)
Also, consider that you'll be wanting large memory cards very quickly, if you don't have some already; if that must be factored into the budget, then the DRebel is the only one that fits within the limit you stated.

My I-140 denied on 06/18/08n and immediately I485 also denied.:mad:
I have Visa vailid till Jan09.
1.If I change employer and able to get labor cleared before jan09 , can I apply for I140 PP and get H1B exension.
2.Is the Priority date transferrable if I change the employer?

Do not forget to count the effect of the fact that once congress pass FBI Background Checks Improvement Amendment to CJS FY 2008 Appropriations Bill, total load again will cross more than 650,000 (320000 + June application load +Namecheck stuck files + August and onward load) at least. So in theory Namecheck stuck guys will start popping out of the system first and then us. And this may make all bulletins till 2008 end slow not moving beyond 2003 for almost all EB2-3 categories in general. Now Senate has already passed that Amendment. Ofcourse if it will become law through passing of the bill and till then we all will have to wait. But if it is passed will be effective mostly from 2008.
http://levin.senate.gov/newsroom/release.cfm?id=285400
Notes:
------
(1) USCIS claimed having 320000 AOS filings but it has not claimed that all those are from EB category only so do not
forget to assume some % out of that from Family category as well.
(2) USCIS has not claimed number for Consular Processing. Now Yearly limit 140000 covers Consular Processing files
as well. So assume this as well for your statistical prediction base.
(3) USCIS has not put any number for concurrent filers out of these 320000. So you will have to make their category
little separate for your analysis. The reason is that their whole processing now solely depends upon I-140 approval
so in theory even if date becomes current for them, if I-140 is not approved, their files will not be processed.
(4) You will have to make a base for "Fence Jumpers" in your analysis (CP to AOS and AOS to CP)

The bulletin is 2 years old (if that is considered old, given the GC standards). However, no new bulletins have followed to void it. Unless I have been advising with the wrong lawyer and wrong GC applicants (many), there is no such thing as I-485 Approval before the name check is completed. Any third party would like to comment?
Of course, they will not "approve" your 485 before your name check is cleared. You misunderstood me or I was not clear. What I meant is this: if your name check is not cleared but all other work on 485 is finished (which I think I equated to clearing the 485 in my previous post; sorry), they will tell you on phone (if you inquire) that your 485-related stuff is complete, but we are waiting for the name check. (Also, they will wait for your PD to become current).
My main point in the original post was that if it takes them 2 yrs to check your name --- the name-checking process runs concurrently with the 485 process --- then the 485 is bound to be complete by the time your name check is cleared. The processing times of 485 can be gauged from the VSC (or relevant center's) bulletins. Those proc. times do NOT indicate the processing times for the name check. If the name check happens before the 485 process is cleared, great! If not, you wait for the name check; lots (and believe me tens of thousands) of people belong to the second group. Since this forum mostly has people stuck in the process at earlier stages, you are not going to find too many people with that kind of experience here.
So your respected lawyer is technically correct, but what he/she is saying can be very badly misleading!! One gets the impression that clearing the name check happens automatically with completing work on the 485 by USCIS.
Wait a minute; I thought the name check is part of the I485 approval (and for those who file I-140 and I-485 concurrently, part of the I-140 approval).
And the name check is certainly not a part of the 140 approval even if the 140 and 485 are submitted concurrently. If any lawyer is telling you this, please change him/her.
I hope what I said above makes sense :) Took me a long time to compose that ...:)

Thanks for your response ...
I am told that my status will expire whenmy latest I-94 expires .. I had been out of the country after i recieved my latest H1B so technically my I-94 will expire on 16th-sep-2007 ...
My question is what will be one's status after filing I485?
For adjustment of status you should be in a Valid H1. If you get your EAD before Setp 16th then you can use this to work and you are safe. If you dont get EAD you are basically out of status. So I suggest get your H1 Renewed Right away using Premium or regular processing.
Again this is my analysis check with your lawyer.

Sometimes I think that rather than writing to these politicians ,we should write to USCIS.This retrogression is caused by them.They didn't wait for any bill to be passed for this retrogression.There is no use of talking to politicians,they don't care.
I know that USCIS will not care either but USCIS did it out of nowhere ,till sep2005,everything was fine for them and suddenly in oct 2005,they put us in backward direction.Now after a year and a half ,we are at the same spot,waiting for the visa bulletin and staying depressed for a day or two after seeing it.
I don't know .I am so mad at everybody.
Sorry for the ranting.
Btw,i have already sent emails to USCIS and chicago tribune regarding this .

Let�s see, Senate has so far passed Bill #2
And here are some of the bills in numerical order in which they were listed in Senate
3. Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act of 2007
4. Medicare Prescription Drug Price Negotiation Act of 2007
5. College Student Relief Act of 2007
6. CLEAN Energy Act of 2007
7. College Opportunity Act of 2007
8. Rebuilding America's Military Act of 2007
9. Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007
Also on an average it takes about 10 Business days to debate and vote on bill.
Lookup at the senate calendar (working days week offs etc)
Lets assume (when have things gone right for us?) everything goes according to the order listed above. We have 80 days of work before CIR comes to senate.
Considering that senate takes weeks off (first from Feb 19-23, second from April 2-9). I don�t see how they can start CIR before May at the latest.
Now they might say some of the bills could be a days worth of work, or not necessary bills will be taken up in numerical order etc.
But I ask you again. When was the last time we were lucky?

If you have been unsuccessful in trying to get an appointment in NJ, try some NYC centers. I got mine done during the weekend at the following center:
Dr. Anthony D. Blau, Green Card Medical Exams
305 Broadway, 4th Floor, Room 444, New York, NY 10007
(212) 766-4433
On weekdays, they have walk-ins. And the best part - it is cheap only $185 for the whole thing - tests, shots, everything. Extremely professional, my wife and I got out within an hour of reaching there. We just have to go once more to check our skin.

well - for the antis - the ONLY post they liked seems to be "pack your bags and go home". Lets not try to force ourselves to satisfy them.
Now, when it comes to out of status issues - lot of people do genuinely fall out of status. There is nothing called exploiting the loophole unless someone breaks the laws.
It is obvious that one must not be on bench, or after layoff without a job. There is no room for loopholes.
We have always seen that USCIS does treat every petition for renewal on a case to case basis. Grace period (considerable) has been considered for genuine cases.
Infighting is common - it happens everywhere. People seldom change.
See - IV is not something like a freedom movement or asking for rights for poor or downtrodden - IV is basically a group of immigrants who are skilled and well educated who want to lobby for a change in system and sort issues. Everyone here has their own selfish motive and that's why this infighting among eb2 vs eb3 , MS vs BS, India vs ROW et al......
So lets not worry too much because antis paint all of us together because of actions of some people. If people realize and change - well it is good for all - otherwise - "we cannot make the horse drink water .." you know what I mean
I agree with most of the points. Don�t we need to have moderate this site to keep junkies and illegal out of this site.

For one thing - there would be thousands of applications between 07/19 and 07/28 (mine being one of those :D) and the other is that the USCIS doesnt pre-adjudicate. Since the PD has only moved recently, the processing dates didnt move that rapidly
Yes, There will be thousand of applications, but not all of them will have their PD before June 2006. And that's why processing dates will move forward rapidly. In August 15th report this will be evident.
