gaz, I have contributed before, but I am still unable to access some posts. Could that be a problem with the website or am I not understanding you right :confused:? Thanks.
the current subscription model is setup only for members currently contributing. So if you sent a contribution since the FOIA drive - you should have access - contact admin if you don't.

What I'm talking about is that I like the idea of members who have contributed earlier to have their contributions applied retroactively towards membership (eg. if someone contributed $123 - they get 4 months of membership - i.e. multiples of $25 per month)
Its only a thought - upto the core and a quorum to decide and act on this.

bigtime007/8 is clearly a sinner. However, modern civilizations do not kill most sinners. We need to find an atonement prescription for bigtime007/8.
We need to count his (her) posts and persons whom s/he has offended. Then, s/he has to post twice as many posts that offend anti-immigrants and offend twice as many anti-immigrants in non IV blog sites.
To begin with atonement, bigtime007/8 should start studying blogs attached to following articles.

Because going back to 2007 bulletin is lot of work for them. Looking at PD of each application and seperating it from the lot. If they just made it U, its easy...send everything back.
They have to do those work anyway. Because all the applications are not I-485 and also some ppl filed I-140 along with I-485. So, they do have to repackage those applications. Let us see,how events develops for couple of more days?.

Hello,
I have been going through this discussion. I am in a similar situation where I got a Welcome Notice saying my I-485 was approved and I should be receiving my card in 3 weeks when my PD is not current and in fact, the PD is a couple of years behind! It has been 6 months since I got the notice and no GC is in sight. After calling the customer service in March, they told me that they did not have my biometrics in their system and so I had to go for a biometrics appointment early April. It is almost 3 months since then and I still have no GC card. I know that there is a delay in card production, but at the same time, I am wondering if the I-485 approval was by mistake and that is causing the real problem. I am in talks with a lawyer who suggests it is better to correct the USCIS mistake right now rather than getting into complications in the long run. I am frustrated that I have to pay for an attorney for a mistake USCIS did and concerned what will happen in future when I proceed with their advice.
Could one of you who faced this situation descibe how you handled the situation or how you would handle this situation? In my case, there is no other I-485 or anything filed before and I have never been out of status or had any issue ever.
Thank you.
Could not believe this, unless you update your profile. Thanks

I've read the document. IEEE is supporting "Immigration Visas" but not H-1B visas(temporary).
Can you shed some light what they meant by "Immigration Visas"?
It would be great if you can give us an example of some one coming on "Immigration Visa" and becoming a permanent resident and subsequently a US citizen.
Immigration visas are really GCs themselves. The only ones that I know who come directly to US on one are the family sponsored immigrants.
i agree IEEE is right about H1-B visas denying rights to workers (we dont claim it is perfect either).But it is just not conceivable for EB immigrants to come directly on a GC, given the long delays. So what they say sounds valid in theory, but impossible in practise.
If USCIS takes 5 years to process an EB visa,how is anyone going to wait that long to hire a foreign worker ? And what is going to happen to a foreign student when he graduates ? go back home and return after 5 years ? Even allowing for significant reform, and assuming their "instant GC" proposal is really instant, I dont see a GC ever being processed in under 2 years anytime in the near future. IEEE only provides lip service to legal immigration, while pushing its case against H1-B. I have not seen any concrete proposals from them to make the GC process painless. To me, it all smells of a veiled attempt to make the immigration process so cumbersome that few employers will want to even go for it.
IEEE-USA might at best be neutral towards our cause, but going by their reaction to CIR, I dont see them jumping with joy if GC numbers are increased.

Mohican,
I never heard about I-140 substitution. Are you sure your employer request USCIS to change the name of the beneficiary on the approved I-140?
As far as I know I-140 is the petition by an Employer for an individual Employee, so it goes with 1 person and can not be substitute.
Employer can revoke I-140 or use the underlying labor for some other individual.
It may have been the case that USCIS by mistake approved 2 I-140 for the same labor and when they realise their mistake they denied your I-485 suggesting someone else already used the underlying Labor certification.
I guess your original employer as well as USCIS are at fault. I dont think AC-21 provisions will help you either, bcos the USCIS rule is 1 beneficiary for 1 labor, their can not be multiple beneficiaries for 1 approved Labor.
Please consult your situation with the experienced attorney and see if you can file MTR, since its not your fault and you are suffering due to USCIS/Employer mistakes for using 1 labor for 2 I-140 approvals.

Just called USCIS and told her that My application was mailed on Jun 28th and it got delivered on July 02. I also told her that my PD is May 2003 (hence i'm eligible to file in June)..
She told me that since i mailed it in June and this Notice goes into effect in July 02 my application WILL NOT be rejected... She asked me to wait for receipt notice :)
GOING CRAZZZZZZZZZZZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Anything received on july 2nd is history.it doesn't matter when you sent it.what matters is when USCIS received it.
I spoke to a cust. rep and she did tell me that all apps received on and after july 2nd will be returned. To be sure , she put me through an immigration officer (I am still listening to the music)

All,
Dont take it too seriously .... and disturb ur sleeps and all .... See, if the receipt has to come from somewhere else, then its a different story ..... USCIS is the one who has to generate the receipts and we have to send the receipt back to USCIS ....
If USCIS themselves are delaying the recipts for whatever reasons, its their problem to handle .....We can show many other proofs as initial evidences ....Its no big deal for them to verify this ...
Its not that we r missing an important report such as medicals which USCIS can get only from the applicant .......
More than anything, I just believe in God ....
Our applications WOULD NOT BE REJECTED ... JUST RELAX ...........

I dont see anything which will allow us to file for 485 as soon as the labor is approved, s1932 had a point whcih would allow us to file for 485 without waiting for the priority date.

Sorry , but I dont think that it is possible to do that ...
EB3 vs EB2 classifications depend on Job Description ie the description and education, experience requirement given at the labor certification stage.
You can get labor certification which would satisfy EB2 class requirements and apply under EB3 for I140 .... but not the other way around. ...
That means starting from scratch with PERM with a new Labor... loosing PD and back to square one ... obviously not worth it
PD is not lost if you crossed I-140 stage (got an approval) on the older application.

When M.K.Gandhi held his first rally against the British rulers(nothing personal here Franklin and Mark ), it did not result in immediate freedom, but was it worthless ?
May be we need to be more sensational like Gandhi to cause the desired impact. Gandhi burned the SA ID cards during the first rally. May be we should have burned our H-1Bs...:-) But I guess this is the extreme we can go to considering the vested interests we have in staying in this country. I believe this will be a slow and long struggle!

I was also told that there is new law which requires that the PERM fees should be paid by the employer (around 5-6k). Most desi consultancies used to ask the employees to pony up the labor fees. wonder how this will affect the conversion process.
It is ILLEGAL for the foreign applicant to pay for the PERM fees or the I-140 fees or lawyer expenses pertaining to either steps. The Employer MUST bear all expenses for this process. If you have evidence of wrongdoing, pls report it to DOL.
We should not be supportive of such violations of law - as a group it is not in our best interests.
The foreign applicant may pay all I-485 related expenses - or a generous employer can cover those expenses too.

I can pitch in for this cause. But as others mentioned, we need to make sure what we are getting for the money and when. We can also ask for break down of charges for the money they are asking. How about involving the CIS Ombudsman and definitely GAO.

Just based on the definition given by DOL I decided Level III and Level IV to be EB2. Besides I am EB2 and my wage level is Level IV. I agree it is hard to conclude the cat based on wage level, I saw there were some Senior welders in Level III as well as Vice presidents of the companies. Quite a contradiction isn't it!!
I checked with the lawyer's office regarding levels I, II, II and IV on labor certification...The thing that determines EB2 and EB3 is what is written on the approved I-140.
For example, if it says 'Mem of Profession w/Adv Deg, or Exceptional ability Sec 203 (b) (2)' it is EB2. So it's what's checked in when u file your 140, and what it is approved for.
As far as levels I, II, III and IV are concerned, it does not matter regarding adjudication. The thing that only matters is either EB2 or EB3 (which is based on 140 approval as mentioned above) for Indians and Chinese in this case...
