Everybody (not just Perm) filers hate LS guys as they went ahead of line...
Backlog guys hate Perm filers as they went ahead of line... This is not true. How come PERM filers can go ahead in line.
Eb3 guys hate EB3-EB2 conversion guys as they went ahead of line...
....and it goes on. This is true :)
This shit never ends!!!:(
Strangely, everything is done within the scope of law!

Our receipt date is 9/10. No FP notices yet. Got EADs and APs well in time.
I opened SR for myself on 10/11 and my wife on 10/16. Exactly after 45 days, today I got 2 letters from them. There is no logic in what I see in them. Here are they:
Response to my SR: Our review indicates that this case is actually within our processing time. We regret any misunderstanding.If you don't recv a decision or notice of other action within our current processing time, check our website or call cust service. All returned documents will be re-mailed.

Response to spouse's SR: The status of the service request is :
Biometrics must be taken at the ASC in your area. When an appt. becomes available you will be notified by mail when and where to report. Please allow 4 months to receive your appt for biometrics.
Finally the real twist ..... We had an infopass appt at Dallas center last week.The IO asked me the purpose of the visit and I had informed her about our cases. She looked at our cases and said that our files are not yet opened. I was confused and upon my request to explain in detail, she said our files were not assigned to anyone and are with TSC. She suggested me to call USCIS Natioanl Cust serv and ask them to send a request for the files to be opened. I have never come across/read such a scenario. I got further confused and was wondering how come we got EADs and APs when our files were not "opened". There was no clearcut answer for that. She advised me to call them and quote that we visited Infopass and they advised us to call USCIS asking our files to be opened. I am not sure if this works or not.
But the greatest relief came at the end of the appt ....both of us got cleared in the background check. I am assuming that background check and name check are one and the same. Friends,Correct me if I am wrong.She said as of Oct 18th, we were cleared.
Looking at all these things, I am not sure how the process is taking place !
I haven't called USCIS yet as I thought that I would wait till 45 days are over since I opened SRs for FPs. Now it's over and I just got the responses for the SRs today.

Sorry to hear about your case.
From what I have heard, you can apply for I485 till your case gets adjudicated. Your PD is Dec 2003. It will easily take 2 to 3 years to get approval. In that time, get your divorce papers, get married, bring your new wife in H4 and apply for her 485. I think you'll be good.
I am not sure what will happen to your ex. You may need to revoke her 485 application. not sure if you can just revoke hers or you need her to sign some application (which she may not be willing to).
Check with an attorney. They should be able give you the best advice.
I and my wife applied for I485(EB3) in July 2007. We both have got our EADs, but not used it.
My H1 is valid till May 2009. I have I140 approved and have got my H1(3 years) till May 2009.
My wife has her own H1b valid till Dec 2008.
We are planning to get divorced. i have applied for Divorce in India in this month (may 2008).
Is there a way I can cancel my 485 application. Because If i get my green card it will be difficult for me to marry girl from India.
My wife has mentioned that she will be applying for Divorce in USA.
Can I withdraw my 485 application and just be on H1 and wait for applying later. I do not care about GC.

Looks like you know a lot about non profit companies that sponsor cap exempt h1bs, can you please provide a list or a few jobs that are posted under this category...or atleast where to start looking for these jobs...?
These kind of cap exempt visas are only sponsered by Universities and very few research organizations....there arent many comapnies out there for non profit reasons..please dont throw suggestions/advices just for the heck of it...
Relax dude tone down... you answered your own question! how many universities are there in US?
you will be surprised to see how many not for profits are out there... so dont throw there "arnt many companies" words of encouragement
and with someone that has a phd i don't think it should be difficult
i did not throw suggestion for the heck of it... go through all the msgs to see if anyone suggested anything besides saying sorry to hear about your situation

1. Doesn't matter who it is citizen or not - you have to show legal status. If you read the law carefully, you will be put in a holding prision and given a change to prove legal status (contact family tobring your passport), etc. This is not a traffic stop - a decision will not be made on the stop. That's why there are strict rules stating who can be asked.
2. By law you have to carry identification. Does this mean as a citizen or non-immigrant visa holder, you have to roam with all your docs? No! This is why we fought so hard to make sure US-states give driver's licenses?ID cards to people here legally ONLY. So, you just carry your DL.
3. Item 1 above applies here.
Do you think the people who wrote this Bill did not think of all this? You have to be pretty naive to think that only you thought of these senarios. There is no racist movement behind it.
Sorry, you are an IDIOT!

Your need to also wish that legal immigration issue is included in the bill as senators might CIR at the expense of the legal immig issue......you do not provide them the votes they need
Wishful thinking - Would be nice if the court went against AZ and asked the congress and senate to resolve the issue soon through legislative action. :)

Pakistan had the F series jet fighters since the last many decades. The Americans were offering the advanced version to India and Pakistan. Pakistan is much ahead of India in maintaining log sheets of it with rich experience of 30-plus years. The type of relationship that exists between the US and Pakistan Air Force what is the guarantee that our system won't be leaked to Pakistan's system? If that happens, India's advantage would vanish.
Quick Chain of events .
India rejected both Boeing and Lockheed Martin's proposal of fighters . I am not debating the reasons or the merits of this decision if this was right or wrong . I am just discussing the potential repercussions this has had so far and might have .
'Exclusion of US firms from IAF jet deal a setback for ties' (http://www.indianexpress.com/news/exclusion-of-us-firms-from-iaf-jet-deal-a-setback.../783401/)
1) The issue is so serious that Tim Roemer , US Ambassador to India submitted his resignation immediately since he was on the hook for making this deal work .This shows the measure of disappointment they had.
2) India was seeking US assurances in security a Permanent Security council seat , which looks far fetched now .
4) Pentagon , Whitehouse and the DoD very upset that deal fell through . This sentiment will certainly percolate to the USCIS and the State department and might embolden Anti Immigration senators whose measures will get more support in the house and senate.
5) Prosecution of companies entangled in cases like Infosys might find more support and favor with the Govt.
Question is how/if there will be a backlash against India / Indian's get back at us at least in the short term .Increased scrutiny and visa denials , PoE Harassment , GC audits etc.
Will the US take a Tit-for-Tat reaction on this issue is what remains to be seen.

I have beein the US for over 6 years yet I still don't have my GC. I applied for it in 2001, got laid off, switched companies and finally I'm with a company I joined 3 years go and my PD is Oct2004 w/140 approved on 04/2005 EB-3 waiting to file my 485.
I used to worry about this GC a lot and then said to myself a lot of +ve things and today I have really moved on and I worry less abt the GC today. I am doing great & more or less like what you are into : got 2 houses, one in India and the other in US, kid, wonderful Wife on H4, a great family and floated my own start-up in India. I have a great job here in the US too, working on my PMP cert and am also looking for a part-time gig here.
So, really, life is good. Here is a thing though, as some of our other friends had mentioned :the GC is all about Security, Free mobility(my client wants me to go to France, but I have been putting off b/c of Visa re-val and stuff) and Growth". Today, my client also wants to hire me and offer me a PM postion , but unfortuantely they don't want to sponsor Visas, not that they don't sponsor Visas at all. Although, I got pissed off after the Oct bulletin but I'm keeping my chin-up and hoping that I'll see the light at the end of the tunnel some day.
So, cheer up have fun, live life to the fullest and enjoy!!!!
OK, now can someone start a thread for Nov bulletin predictions :)
ciao
I have several friends who were waiting for GC desparately and they thought it was the final destination. They had many reasons why to get GC and once they get, they will be free and can do / will do everything possible. But, once they got it, they settled in a permanent job. Without GC, they were working for the same client with even more pay and life was good if not better.
I was thinking the same way; because I am no different.
Oflate, I realised, I am un-necessarily worried about something which is not in my control. I realised that I am well paid, with this pay even the benefits I am not getting are compensated. Why am I worried? Should I be after GC in order to get peace of mind? I started looking it little differently. I am in this country to earn more money and live comfortably. I am already enjoying what I wanted. Then, why am I worried still? May be it is in human nature to always look for something which is not in the hands.
I still need GC for other things like Children education and get some other benefits (our education / starting business etc). I agree, but there is lot of time for that in my case. There are several people who are in the same state as me if not all. Everyone's needs are different.
I thought I will just share my ideas so that atleast some of the people will be happier.

In the same lines as H1B, could we look into if its possible to add a quota for US Masters degree holders irrespective of country of birth for green Card also. This would be in addition to the existing Employment based quotas.
Does anyone know how they added 20k H1B quota for Masters degree holders? Who sponsored that bill? May be we should talk to the same people.
I would think there would be a little less resistance for this? This would ease the pressure on both EB2 and EB3.
I dont know if this has been previously looked at. I know there were talks of excluding these people from quota all together.

well since we are in the mood for quotes here's a different take on the use of past moves in making a current move:
George Santayana:
Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
Etienne Gilson:
History is the only laboratory we have in which to test the consequences of thought.
Kurt Vonnegut:
History is merely a list of surprises. It can only prepare us to be surprised yet again.
Pearl S. Buck:
One faces the future with one's past.
though ofcourse there is no point in fretting over split milk, learning from the past is very very important... Both your own past moves as well as those of people before you.
History does not repeat itself. The historians repeat one another.

assumption 1 - Being that both me & spouse received RFE, i am thinking it mostly is either health records, finger prints, photo graphs, or signatures (we had g-28 to let our attorney sign on behalf of us and they (uscis) might need original signatures)
assumption 2 - Worst of all because the status changed to RFE on 2/13 and we might not get the notices till (02/20) we lose a whole week just waiting on the notices and we will have mere 3 weeks to respond back

getting a seperate quota for Masters from US has some teeth. The Congress passed a legislation for additional 20K visas for people with US masters. To match things up with the EB visas, there is need for additional numbers. We can thus argue for an there needs to be additional numbers for EB masters quota.
I think this might resonate with the congress. Unless everyone is just waiting for something big.

I think you should send webfax also. 1. It would not hurt. 2. It would show our numbers.
I didn't webfax but sent my state's US Senators a message through their official portal (I had recieved a response last time I did that). I also followed up with a phone call to their offices.
