I was able to successfully port my EB3 to EB2 and received my GC last month. I am working for a mid-size American consulting firm. My background is Bachelors in Computers from India and did Masters in Computers from US.
I filed my EB3 labor in AUG 2005 and got both labor and I140 approved in two months.
Filed 485 in July 2007 & got EAD/AP.
Went to my Employer and requested them to either refile my application for EB2 or I will have to resign. Since I was already working as PM, it was easy for my Employer to file for EB2 for PM position.
Filed EB2 labor in March 2009, Got approved in Jan 2010
Got EB2 I140 approved in March 2010
Late March Case transferred to Local Office.
Personal Interview in May 2010 - IO was not sure why i was called for interview. No Questions asked and told to wait till date gets current.
Date got current in July.
- Call multiple times 800 number only standard response
- Went to local office and request update. IO told to wait for a week. 2 days later on 14th July got my GC approved.
I believe even if you get your GC 6 months early by porting dates, its worth it. I hope my story helps you.
Best Luck!
I am already using my EB3 EAD to work (I invoked AC21 last year to change job) Can I know how much it costs to file EB2 labor+I-140+interfile process , if my current employer says that I have to pay for it myself (I was given this offer because I told them I did not need sponsorship and I had EAD).

Vowww... what a wishful thinking.
Definitely nobody would have thought giving Green Cards to Legal Immigrants who are making renting industry thrive can also solve US Housing Slump.
Next time, they may even see a possibility if giving Green Cards can also solve Global Warming!!!!
You know actually it can happen with majority of desis driving green vehicles (honda/toyota).
it is not wishful thinking ..dumbo ..it is a good idea but it doesnt / wont have much support as community is divided and happy with its ead.
money makes the mare go in this world ..say if the immigration community was united and if we were to lobby with the builders and car dealers who make contribution to the politicians then lot of bills would have passed behind the scenes ..earliar h1-b was for 6 years only ..how did the extension come ..behind the scenes the business lobby worked secretly.

Guys,
I know ROW country may not like this thread, but look at EB-3 India or China, put yourself in our shoes and than you may realize how unfair this country is. In this unprecedented financial turmoil, I feel there are very remote chances for CIR or any package which increase immigration etc would pass, I am taking this initiative to gather as many people I can and go to washington. Again this is not an IV effort. If you are with me , you can spare some time it could be few days in Washington!! please PM me.
Again we are not creating any organization or anything, we are not going against IV's agenda. This is also a part of IV's agenda, but for now our sole agenda will be to bring a 2 line bill to remove country quota or increase the country cap(whichever can fly).
PS : For EB-3 India, unless country cap is removed or increased, you can presume you GC application dead forever...For EB-2 India It'll be a long journey for people with PDs sooner than 2005...
Thanks

Anyone invoking AC21 with unapproved I-140?
It is risky to change employers after 180 days before I140 is approved. If it comes to issues, when USCIS realizes one changed employment before I140 was approved, USCIS needs to verify that the underlying I140 was approvable at the time the change of employment occurred. By approvable it means that at that time there was no reason to issue a major type RFE for pending I140. If, for instance, the USCIS notices that at the time one invoked AC-21 and I140 was not yet approved and the I140 petition did not include (or included incomplete) educational documentation, it will say that the I140 was NOT approvable due to material evidence missing. And, at that time AC-21 can't work and may cause huge issues. One should be very wary of this and in general attorneys advise to wait until I 140 is approved before invoking I140.
Hope it helps.

The folks who have not sent the webfax till now, if you are not ready to send a simple webfax, why are you expecting a senator to bring in an amendment. This is for your benefit, not the senator's.

Does anyone know how Quebec compares to Ontario. Specifically Montreal to Toronto. Economically, culturaly, etc.?
I would appreciate any comment. Thanks
I have a sister that lives in Beaconsfiels (on the island of Montreal) - so I know what I am talking about ... been there many times.
Depends - do you speak French. If yes, Montreal is outstanding. If not, then TO (said "T" then "O" (not zero)) (or Toronto), is more likely desireable to immigrants. It is extremely multicultural, economically not dependant on a "referendum" (French trying to separate sending the economy for a spin).
Housing in TO is somewhat expensive - remember, that it is the 4th largest city in North America. Look also at Alberta (Edmonton & Calgary), and British Columbia - again housing is very expensive here. May wish to also consider looking at Halifax in Nova Scotia, but most likely will not be your choice. A city like London or Kitchener, Ontario is great - just need the skill set to get a job there.
Conclusion - Ontario is most likely your best bet (and the weather is better than Monteal by a long shot)

Welcome. I urge you to browse this wonderful site and try to gather more information as to what IV has to offer and its history.
BTW: "sub prime" has nothing to do with the real estate market or the location of the house. It is a financial term to describe a "risk" category invented for the layman. People who got loans even though they do not have the 'prime' credit rating and paid zero down payment are the ones who are walking away from their houses. These foreclosed houses can be anywhere and probably in better locations than not, as their prices would not have precipitously climbed during 2003-2006 crazy years.
Yup, I know what sub prime is and more. What I meant to say was more that 60% of the foreclosure was due to the sub prime crisis. A lot of these come from the Low Income Group and were sucked into the ARM with 5 yr fixed and variable therafter. They usually don't buy homes in a $500,000 community. They bought houses in a 150K community. Most of the houses in those areas are not what a typical, highly skilled immigrant earning good money would be interested in buying. Atleast not in my area. But you are right. These houses could be in good areas too. With 12 million foreclosed homes, say 6 million are in good areas and with 500K immigrants in line, perhaps buying 250K houses, its about 4% of the foreclosure market. Now tell me, how can that help the economy?

I understand that there is lot of fear among applicants that USCIS might retrogress the dates interimly sometime in july due to the expected high volume of applications filing in the begining of july.
To minimize the chance of USCIS from taking any such steps, shall we all unite and file the applications on a specific date in july probably on 30th of july? This will accomodate all applicants...so that we shall all be winners and use this opportunity to our advantage instead of competing amongst each other...where only a few will be winners and others will be loosers.
This will also reduce the pressure among applicants , attorneys and doctors.
Can the AILA cooperate? Will there be unity amongst applicants to make this possible??? any ideas ??

i think CP filers have a valid point to argue for relief. clearly there is an injury to CP filers as the dates were moved forward creating the impression that they will continue to do so or at least hold steady. legal opinion was also in favor of CP based on individual circumstances in many cases. many of these filers already underwent a lengthy BEC process, which newer Perm/I-485 filers never went through. the government flip flop is the cause of this additional injury.
instead of asking for specific fixes to be put in, CP filers should articulate this problem clearly and get legal opinion as to possible relief measures.
great point mr internet then I think CP filiers should other way to make their efforts and should not participate in letter campaign since there are lot of people who are waiting in CP queue.....anyway are you British...it seems to me from your reply:rolleyes:

He's a full blown liberal both fiscally and socially.
I would think coming from MI, a state that has one of the highest unemployment, and the relief that the auto industry got - it continues to exist because of those liberal fiscal policies.
Besides, his being liberal fiscally/socially has nothing to do with our issues. He is probably the best ally for our issue in the democratic circle...

I cannot imagine how educated illiterate IV members are. You think voting on some site will get the bill passed? I agree with Fresheb2 that this is a waste of time. You guys are only promoting some new site. This site will capture your email addresses and send you marketing material. If you read about the site owners, they are commerical companies and they seek to make profit from this site. Do not be fooled that someone will send your bogus votes to congress and the bill will be passed. The site only aims at generating awareness among US citizens about congress and bill. They probably got some grant or decided to make money off this idea and started this website.
How about I also start a website and create voting on it and ask everyone to vote. Will it help a bill pass?

As we all know, the Housing crisis in US is getting worse day by day, with the inventory of houses available for sale increasing, and buyers not willing/able to buy those houses.
Giving speedy Green Cards to July Visa bulletin cases will ease the Housing Crisis in US.
Most of the people affected by the July Visa bulletin are highly skilled people who have the capacity to buy houses, but are not investing in houses, since their future in US is not secure until they get Green Cards.
Instead they end up investing in real estate in Bangalore/Hyderabad etc, thereby helping in housing boom in those places.
If Congress passes a law to give speedy Green Cards to these highly skilled people ASAP; these highly skilled people, who have good jobs and capacity to buy houses inspite of the difficult situation regarding getting loans etc, will help US tide over the current difficult housing situation.
This is something for the US law makers to ponder.
Vowww... what a wishful thinking.
Definitely nobody would have thought giving Green Cards to Legal Immigrants who are making renting industry thrive can also solve US Housing Slump.
Next time, they may even see a possibility if giving Green Cards can also solve Global Warming!!!!
You know actually it can happen with majority of desis driving green vehicles (honda/toyota).

Please guys, I understand the frustration we're all going through but do not compare it to what happened to the Jews under the Nazis. We are indeed in a bad situation but comparing it to genocide is too much.
I have seen pictures of the Holocaust and still get nightmares.
Just keep things in perspective and have faith in God and your destiny.
Remember, the bill hasn't passed yet. It still has to go through the House of Representatives.

Refer to USCIS guide lines regarding AC 21. Hope this helps.
http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/AC21Intrm122705.pdf
JunRN,
First, Thank You for all your advises.
I am planning to file AC-21 memo with USCIS.
I hope the my new employer will help with paperwork. and I have to find a lawyer who can do that and be prepare for RFE and Interviews.
My last question to you:
1. Do you know for AC-21 I have to work in the same state where my labor was filed?
my labor was at IL and now working in TX but same type of job.
2. Is there a deadline or recommened time to file Ac-21 memo with CIS?
I just joined the new company 2 weeks back with my EAD after getting laid off from petitioning employer (they will not revoke my approved I-140)
Any advises and recommendations on filing AC-21 will be very much appreciated.
