There were about 600,000 AOS applications including the July and August filers. So that number less 60,000...roughly about 540,000 applications still pending with USCIS....
And 540000 @ 140000 per year is approx. 4 years!
Going by PD, 2001-2003 may get their GC by Dec 2008
PD 2003-2005 by March 2010
PD 2005-2007 by Sep 2011
Again, my assumption is even distribution which is not a reality. Every year, last quarter would be busy as USCIS would try to use up all the VISA numbers for FY and during that period it could be open for all atleast for 3-4 years; like June 2008 they may make it current for PD 2005 and June 2009 for PD 2007 .... And, come October dates would retrogress.

I filed mine on May 12 and sent to Phoenix Lock box and had the same issue. My checks are not cashed and am going through the same pain as you do. My lawyer suggested its not unusual to have these delays and it could take upto 4 weeks for the receipt notice to come. I am still tensed as the checks are not cashed and there is no receipt for the renewal. Please let me know how you are proceeding or find any new info
I will also share updates from my end
Thanks alot
I am in the same situation, my application was received on 5/11/2010. Checks are not chashed yet, my lawyer advised me to refile online after one week if filing fee is not an issue. She thinks the delay is unusual and if we are nearing the expiration date, just re-file online.

PD for family based visa is based on the date you file your I-130 for your Spouse. Nothing to do with the Labor certification.
For unmarried sons and daughters of GC holder same PD is given as of parent - I saw couple of documents.
I am not sure about (2A) cases.

You don't need your PD to be current for EAD/AP
I think he might have meant that the 485 was prematurely filed too.

I am stuck in EB3 and want to apply for EB2. How does one find companies willing to do EB2? With desi consulting companies you can ask upfront to the recruiter but with american companies can you do the same?
Can users suggest some companies who are currently doing EB2?

I would go with the prediction in the Jan 2010 Visa Bulletin:
WHAT ARE THE PROJECTIONS FOR CUT-OFF DATE MOVEMENT IN THE EMPLOYMENT PREFERENCES FOR THE REMAINDER OF FY-2010?
Based on current indications of demand, the best case scenarios for cut-off dates which will be reached by the end of FY-2010 are as follows:
Employment Second:
China: July through October 2005................CHINA IS ALREADY AT NOV 2005...SO THIS HAS HAPPENED
India: February through early March 2005.........ONE MONTH BEHIND HERE....NOT BAD WITH THE PREDICTION
If Section 202(a)(5)were to apply:
China and India: October through December 2005 ..................THIS IS THE SPILLOVER CHANCES FOR JULY-SEPT 2010....MOST LIKELY IT WILL CLOSE AT JAN 1, 2006

just for comparison sakes...do remember that the distance from churchgate to virar (in bombay) is 35 km. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mumbai_Suburban_Railway.
That is equivalent of approx 22 miles. I doubt there is anybody is bombay that drives 35 km one way on a daily basis. But in the US living 10-20 miles from work is not bad. People in my office drive about 40 miles one way without blinking an eyelid. Some drive even more. Plus the cars that they have in india have smaller engines, smaller capacity thereby better gas mileage.
So for people who say gas is a non issue, think again.
Yes, thinking again, my opinion still remains the same. Gas prices in the US moved up from 25c a gallon in the late 60s to what it is now. No one stopped driving on account of that. Ditto with India.
I say, we will not see signifcant changes in the US lifestyle due to increasing gas prices. People will adapt and continue to do what they are doing. But this is theory and cannot be substantiated with evidence. Hence, I accept I could be wrong too.

I received IRS tax audit check for year 2005 last week. I guess mostly I can defend my audit and I have scheduled an appointment with IRS tax manager for next week
However god forbid if I have to pay penalty on audit,I was wondering this would impact anything on my 485 process. Does it have any impact
Appreciate your thoughts.
If anyone faced this problem please, please give ur ideas
Most audits are routine, once you can back up your claims with paper records/receipts you will be OK, but consult with your CPA and be ready to address the points raised.
Unless you have been found to commit criminal fraud, it should not affect your green card petition. Small penalties and the like have no effect. Last year I had to pay a small penalty because I underestimated my taxes deducted during the year.
You are getting an audit for the 2005 year now? I would have thought they would have moved on by now. Did you take an extension and file late last year?

You mean to say CIR will be introduced to the immigration or judiciary senate committee or introduce directly to the senate. If it is introduced directly to the senate floor that will save a lot of time, on the flip side it will become difficult to add or change provisions if it is directly introduced to the senate bypassing the senate judiciary and immigration committee
Bills almost never go to the floor directly. Especially something as huge as CIR. It will go thru committee again and it will go thru normal rounds of debate and amendments between the 18 people in Judiciary committee.
Its very unusual for a bill to hit the floor directly without going thru the committee that has jurisdiction over it. If it happens all the time, then the committees would be meaningless. The whole point of having a committee is to be able to either kill the entire bill, or a congressional appointment before such a bill / confirmation is debated by all 100 senators. Same thing in the House.
If it was possible to bypass committees, then people would have floored the SKIL or other bills directly on the floor of the house, therby bypassing Jim Sensenbrenner and his Judiciary committee last year.

I completely disagree..There is this huge debate in IV about EB2 & EB3 IN. Everyone is looking at the dates and predicting that EB2 I will be current sometime in '09. This is perceived as injustice to EB3. What people don't realize is that USCIS is not processing. What good is a forward movement if there are no tangible benefits for folks who have already filed AOS.
Forward movement in Sep VB magnifies the USCIS inefficiencies. Despite the rhetoric on the board, this is -ve development in my view. Empirical evidence suggests that there are 1000s of cases pending for pre 06 EB2I & C and yet USCIS could not get that back log cleared. They obviously could not process enough to exhaust the available visa numbers and thus the forward movement by DOS.
This bodes well for CP filers…good for them.
USCIS is trying to make EB2 all countries Current sometime during FY 2009. Of course "a few" 2004, 2005 cases will still be pending past Oct08 but hopefully not too many.
If EB1 and EB2 are shown as current soon, then the DOS can transfer the so-called "spillover" into EB3 ROW, then into EB3 IN & CH.
Based on available numbers, EB3 India / China will see rapid movement in dates April 09 Visa Bulletin onwards.
What will happen during 2009 in all likely hood is the following,
Almost all EB1 spillover will go to EB3. (~ 25k)
Some of EB1 and all of EB2 spillover will go to EB2 IN/CH (~ 10k to 15k)
In 2009, there will be no more Name Check delays - therefore expect rapid EB3 approvals after April 09.

When you join a medical residency on J1 visa, you are subject to 2 years home residency requirement (HRR) before you can apply for green card. What that means i s you have to go back tou your country for 2 years BEFORE you are eligible for any other kind of visa or change in status. You wont be be able to apply for i-485/EAD/ green card even if your husband gets his in the meantime if HRR is not satisfied
The ONLY way to get around the HRR is to sign a contract to work in an medically underserved area for 3 years (on H1b). Once your 3 years are over, you can then apply for GC by what ever means, work or family.
Overall doing residency on J1 is easier as you dont need to clear USMLE step 3, there are more opprtunities as more programs offer J1 positions. Also, if you want to do fellowship, there are more programs in all specialities which will offer J1, not H1. Also, you dont pay medicare or social security tax on J1 which means more money. On the other hand after completing your residency/fellowship you will have less job opportunitis as you will have to find an employer who falls in a geographically underserved area. PM me if you need any more info.

That article is a joke and more like propaganda. It says around 58K H1Bs are issued and most of them are extension - but are they not aware the extensions are not counted towards the cap...?
The moment I read this...I have stopped reading any further.
The job is first moved by the out sourcing firm and then offered for Americans...?-
-----------------------
This is interesting information. This is the first time ever that such news has come out of Indian press. You may belittle it by calling it a joke but to me it is critical because this issue may turn into a trade issue. Call for negotiating a comprehensive services agreement is not mundane. Together with rejection of billions of dollars worth Us defense deal, this is seriously moving towards becoming a significant issue. You may want to dot the is and cross the ts but that is not how the Law makers, Senators US or Indians think about these issues. They are at 30K feet level looking at the Forest while we waste time in just going around our own trees.
To me the intent is more important than the content in the early stages. We will get to details once there is broad agreement on the issue, that is basic negotiation 101.

Do they have a signature authorization from you? If not , they can not send a G-28 that is not signed by YOU !
even my employer didnt allow us to file saying, if employee files, FBI will get mad thinking it has toxics in it :D :D :D
trust me thats what they told me..dunno what he thinks..:) :)
but the point is I sent my docs to my employer and I didnt include any G-28 in it..which means we signed as we prepared all docs..
Now can they attach G-28 and introduce themselves as representatives and swallow all receipts???

Krishna_brc is correct. H1 B alien can be on medical leave, sick leave and can be unpaid during that period.
