Good find, waitnwatch,
I really admire those who can navigate thomas without getting hoplessly lost, especially it since it takes me just a couple of clicks to get the feeling I am alone in a very dark cave with no lights :)
But very sharp of you to have unearthed this nugget... now we will "wait n watch" with crossed fingers..

Please post the PD distribution report in short.
Many companies blocks this type of shared docs hence can not be viewed till you go home and log in.
I'm sorry, I tried to add the file as an attachment to the post but it won't work.
If you know of a different way to post the file here let me know.

Income from investment activities is okay on any visa status as long as appropriate taxes are paid.
If one has rental income, interest income and captial gains from the stock market while on H1-B, does it affect if the person transfers status to H4. Is income from above sources for a H4 person ok ?

This really is height of optimism......it seems that readers think that USCIS IOs were desperately waiting for dates to get current and start approving applications...reality is they don't care and never cared..they may start issuing more RFEs if anything...Again stay rooted to ground and don;t start floating in the clouds....especially with USCIS's fantastic track record.....

Politics is all about compromise
This bill might do something good for some EB3 folks who have advanced degree but then again instead of a EB2 and EB3 difference we will now have an EB3 MS and EB3 Non MS difference and as i see it there is not much difference between those two. Same wine new bottle.
what about highschool dropouts vs college dropouts? literates vs illiterates? same wine new bottle too? then why the distinction of EB1, EB2 or EB3 either? Just hand them visas as soon as they get down that plane :)

This is what I call "tailoring message to our own needs". Lets take your example and I will do the same for you.
USCIS certainly has a report by RD and lets say they are providing that report to the congress or the Senate. What would you see in the report ? There will be applications backlogged for years especially EB3 I. Just in my case, the 485 has been pending for more than 6 years. Anyone who wants to look in to the performance of an organization would want to know how well they are doing and USCIS has to show that they have applications backlogged for more than 6 years and cannot process them because of the unavailability of the visa numbers. Would that look good on them ?
All big companies use both EB2 and EB3. We cannot justify one over the other with-out understanding the data. Again as far my understanding goes, I believe Bill Gates is a big proponent of H1Bs than getting his employees permanent residency.
I beleive you are selectively highlighting facts. Forgive me if I am wrong but there are two issues here
1) Applications Pending by PD
2) Applications Pending by Category (EB 2 & EB3)
Now yes I agree a congress man can ask like how come I see Eb3 app from 2001 pending with you since 2001. Which means 8+ years. With Spillover to Eb3 the dates max go to 2002 so the question would be app pending for 7+ years
With moving EB2 they can least claim that they have moved an entire category to current. Is that right or wrong is entirely a personal question but it is a valid argument from their side. Also look at it this way Eb1 I & Eb2 I currently have a gap of 4 years. and EB2 & Eb3 have a gap of 4 years as well.

Thanks for the responses. Should we submit the original medical report or copy is fine?
The doctor will give you two reports. One open envelope for your records and Another sealed envelope for USCIS.
You should not open the Sealed envelope and this sealed envelope should be submitted as is when you are applying for your 485.

I just don't understand why people who suffer so much from the whole waiting would not contribute. If one day, IV core members decide to close this organization and go on with their lives, I would like to know how those people who have not contributed feel.
The economic theory, "inferior purge the good" works here. Without sufficient "good" individual, we will eventually be out of this game! So to those who have not contributed yet, do you want to see the disorganization of IV? Do you want to become a group for which no one would speak up for you? Do you want to wait desperately and endlessly for your GCs? Do you want to continue to work like a slave and feel worried about travelling outside US?... If not, please contribute!!!
Well said, Thanks.

This is why everyone is stuck in greencard queue and will be stuck forever if they do not do anything about their situation. They will spend hours every day on forums and trackers,give their expert back seat driving comments ... but will not do anything as a community to help themselves. When some asks me the reasons for immigration problems and starts blaming the system, I have now a days started blaming them for the problems they are complaining about. Here is the proof:
It is Mar 22 and we still have only 2 members from NY!!!!!!! that has a huge population of our members. We need at least a couple more to register for the 3 days in DC - Sun, Mon and Tue Apr 3-5.
We are missing people from several midwest states.
We are not even half way in our contribution goal. Please rally people on all forums. Call your friends, post on your facebook, tweet, email and spread the word. If you have a website or blog/ know someone who has a website with lot of immigrant visitors/ can reach out to others who run websites request them to post information about this event on their homepage to show support for this effort. You can comment on this thread once it is posted so that it encourages others.

If I can ask a few dumb questions:) (I might have overlooked this but these details, but this thread is huge now). When is the hearing? Who is conducting is? Is IV core involved?
How can other members here help apart from posting to this thread and $ contributions?
thx
It was not a hearing, just a meeting with some of the people I worked with over the past year on the stimulus issue.
Anyway, I went to the meeting and presented the issues raised by people here and emphasized that the first priority is recapture. Of course I raised the other issues as well, presenting the argument that America will lose its competitive edge if its highly skilled immigrants return to their home countries or other more welcoming countries like Canada, the UK, and Australia.
One person at the meeting was skeptical that many people have been waiting more than 10 years, saying that she has never come across anyone waiting more than 6 years and that these must be special cases where the people were doing something wrong. Anyway, I presented the stories people sent me, but when I raised the issue of granting a fast track to people waiting for more than 10 years, she said that there must be a good reason for it. They need to look at each person on a case by case basis and that a fast track would not be the proper way to resolve these issues. There was a lot of resistance from this person on several issues with the only wholehearted agreement on the issue of getting visas stamped in the US.
In short, I didn't get a sense that much would come of the meeting, but at least I had a chance to present the issues and I was given an assurance that they would be looked into further and discussed at some upcoming meetings. Finally, I said that the best way for them to understand the issues faced by immigrants is to be in contact with immigrants. I also suggested they join the IV discussions to get first hand accounts.
One recommendation they had was than anyone who has been waiting for an unreasonable time for their applications to be processed should contact their congressman/congresswoman with information about their specific cases.

For a full participation, I would recommend a red-eye on Tuesday or at least a flight after 9pm est.
Please excuse my ignorance but what is a "red-eye" ?
There is a flight leaving BWI airport by 9:15p - I guess that may be a good option?
What are the options to travel from BWI Airport to IV gathering point?

I don't think it should really matter as long as payment is received by IV.
If you do decide to switch to paypal, can you also make that $50/month .. :D .. just kidding.
I have signed with my bank online payment option to make recurrent payment to IV ... should i cancel that option and pay via paypal ?

Here are my questions:
1. If some company would like to sponsor a new H1-b visa for me in the next several month, will it subject to this year's h1-b cap?
No, you are not subject to H1 cap.
2. Recently how long does it take to get an H4 application approved (my appliction is processed in Texas Center)?
No idea.
3. It is possible to file a new H1-b application before my H4 approved?
Better consult a lawyer.
Very anxious right now. Any help/information/suggestion will be highly appreciated!![/QUOTE]
