H1Bs can't get EB1C. They need to be outside country in 1 out of 3 prceeding years. EB1C is intracompany transfer visa. Even if one is on H1B, they will be need to moved to L1A before they attempt this to my knowledge. Again we are not here to fix the world., we are here to fight for our cause and get going.. Lets be clear.. Most guys after getting their Citizenship, will also vote for republicans... So to me if we can somehow through, under, around get that visa recapture, we are all back to business my friend.. It is not a separate issue. It is the issue..
I agree. Many folks on this site in their desperate quest for GC are trying to find fault with everyone else in the community. Even if USCIS bans these EB1 guys from GC ( a wild dream. multinational managers are a genuine role in this global economy) it won't fetch many visa numbers as some EB2 guys here are hoping. If you want to get your GC fast, fight the system ( country cap/insufficient visa numbers) unified.

Hello all,
I live in Los Angeles and sent my application on 11/26/07 to CGI SF and received a call on 11/27/07 notifying me that it would take approximately 30 days to renew my passport since it has been over 3 years since it expired. Apparently they need to contact authorities in India to do additional background checking.
Yes, I admit that it is my fault for not checking my passport prior to making travel plans and not renewing in time. However, with the hope that the "emergency/tatkal" scheme would work in getting my passport renewed before my departure date of 12/15/07, I did include the extra $90 for the "emergency/tatkal" scheme. Though I sent the extra money, as I mentioned above, they informed me that they would not be able to expedite my passport renewal.
They informed me that the "emergency/tatkal" process is for grave emergencies only. Fortunately (or unfortunately) I don't have a close family member on their death-bed and I did not want to lie on the application.
In any case, they have sent my application back and it seems that I am out-of-luck and will probably have to cancel my trip.
However, I do have questions for people who have received renewed passports in less than 2 weeks from various CGI locations:
1. Did you apply to the CGI in the appropriate jurisdiction?
2. How long had it been since your passports had expired?
3. Did you know people who worked at the CGI or just got lucky?

Its great that someone is actively looking into this, but will the whole 'security' issue backfire if USCIS decides it would rather waste the visa numbers than getting into this kind of mess in the future by processing everything swiftly?

If you read closely, it appears like the 290,000 immigrant visas would be true for years from now on and for years 2001-2005 (the diffrence between current limit and this section). If that's the case and if that becomes a law, there is possibility there will be no backlog after that for some time...short time probably. Please correct me if I am wrongly reading this section. But for me, it appears it applies retroactively and will add the diffrence (150k a year) between years 2001-2005. If my calculation and understanding is correct, once this act becomes a law, the first year there would be 290k + 600k from years 2001-2005 ......I am not sure if my understanding is correct. I prey it is..
I don' think there is a point which says the visas from 2001-2005 will we
290K. From this fiscal year it will be 290K.
1) The total number of visa available that were not used last year
2) the total number of visa available that we not used from 2001-2005
From 2001-2006 the total was 140K
140 / 4 categories = 35000K for each(India-china-mexico-other). Now we do not know how many were unused from 2001-2006.
From what I understand, I do understand the country limits, and my guess is
There is no country limits, but only EB type limits.
If I am correct the dates of Each should move at least 2-2.5 years from now.
I believe people who need I-485 filling option without priority date should hope to get this too. STEM section has more support to be passed because it was never an issue in any of the houses.
This is my understanding-- I may be wrong

My daughter aged out a couple of years ago due to the fact that my husband's labor was in process and it took about 2 plus years to get approved. Another thing is we have no options at all because our child is severely handicapped and we came here only to participate in a research and never went back as doctors advised her to stay here due to her health issues. We continue to keep her in legal status by applying for B2 visa all the time and which USCIS has been kind enough to grant it to her based on doctor's letters. I hope something is done for the children who have aged out. I even took up our case through Senator's office but nothing happened. It would be really great if IV could do something for the Aged Out Children and parents. I had to leave the job and get into H4 due to her ill health and be her primary care giver.

People are loosing hope on CIR. For time being Pl. keep CIR aside. It is election year. we are not priority for congress in this election year. Why do not we ask for filing I485 even VISAs are not availble. If we get ability to file I485 tens of thousands of people will get relief.
IV core group please think about this. We know you people are working under great pressure and criticism. I appreciate your patience and affords. Pl. think about my proposal.

I just want to thank a few volunteers who worked on lobby day meetings with me but could not attend the lobby day or the rally day-Fora,Vasu and Payal. We are all so glad the lobby day meetings and the Rally went well. It really shows what we can do when we all get together. Kudos to IV and its members!

Guys any update on Interim EAD. Did anyone even tried applying ofcourse thru infopass? Or is that every one are getting their EADs intime??
Will go for infopass on 28th Aug and will carry the USCIS memo dated June 12th 2008 with me.I will insist them to give me their reply in writing (as a letter), I plan to talk with their superior if they do not provide in writing.
So frustrated with this mess.

That is called as misusing the System. We have labor misuse. Now this one will not come out until someone complains. You are lucky we do not have lot of people from EB1 category people here.
I dont care if anyone gives me reds for it. There are a lot of people misusing the GC as well as the H1B system.
Life is not always fair. We all have to just suck it up and take it on the chin if you are a man and in the rear if you are Karan Johar. LOL!!! :D

If 50% of people from India have PD < 2005, all the more reason that EB3 would move forward!
nope, EB3 is a different story altogether: there is always a big demand for EB3. People graduate from colleges in India and come here on H1s, many of them dont have either a masters degree or 5 years of experience, so have no choice but to file in EB3. Many big companies take a conservative approach with the position that has been advertised, and if it is a "junior" level position insist on EB3 (even if the person filing was eligible for EB2). Strictly speaking thats correct, as its the position that determines EB level, not just the person.
Its people with US Masters, or who have done their BS <2002 who have a shot at EB2. That data was specifically for EB2 India PD distribution. That does not mean the EB3 India line is smaller or will move any faster. There are enough people in EB2 pipeline to keep USCIS busy and that category retrogressed (with current quotas)
