Lets say DOS revises bulletin on july 2, does that mean applications recieved on july 2 are accepted and all applications recieved after 2 will be rejected or will USCIS reject all applications recieved on july 2 also.

Am a new member here. Thought of posting the follow-up activities I have done till now and the results for the same.
Details:
PD: Oct 2005
Center: NSC
I485 RD: 07/26/2007
I485 ND: 08/24/2007
FP done only once in 2007 (forgot exact date).
Follow-up:
08/03/2010: Opened SR for primary (self)
08/05/2010: Sent email to NSCfollowup. Got reply that this account address is for following up on open SRs.
08/09/2010: Infopass appointment, did not get any useful info other than that case is being processed
08/09/2010: Opened SR for Secondary (spouse)
08/12/2010: Got response for 1st SR. Main gist of reply was that due to pending caseload in Nebraska, the processing time for my case has been extended :(. But the statement that got my attention was "Your application remains awaiting review by an Officer and you will be notified as soon as a decision is made. The Service is waiting for VISA availability." So called helpline again and was able to get to 2nd Level IO. She said that this statement is a mistake and that Visas are still available. Also confirmed that my case is with IO. However she said that I might be required to do FP again. The FP might be causing the delay.
08/13/2010: Contacted local congressman and asked help for following up.
08/13/2010: Send letter to Ombudsman
Latest status: Still waiting, not sure what other action I can take.
You are doing the right thing. Don't give up. Contact the Senator, if you have any other application pending (like EAD or AP) call them and try to find the status of it. Open an SR for it if needed etc...

Nice to know the film makers comment about our campaign. How about contacting them to get the hundreds of DVDs of 'Lage Raho Munnabhai' and send them to Walter Reed where flowers are going? Just a vague thought, I am sure someone else also mentioned similar thing earlier.

Here is why it will not happen on the first 3 or 4 days atleast.
This is not like H1B, which was hyped around for 2 months and forced every one to file on Apr 1st. More over it has a cap of 65k on it.
The most imp thing is there must be some rationale or logic (other than for fees etc) behind how they could make every category current. Some of you might know that DOS gives USCIS visa numbers quarterly. It means that the final quarter quota has not opened yet. The final quarter quota for EB1/2/3 is around 22000 (approx 7500X3). The EB5 leftovers ( conservatively 9000 , see 2006 stats) will also be added to the EB1 and possibly down to EB2/3 . The total number of visas that will be available to USCIS on Jul 2nd (first fiscal day of final quarter)is 31-33,000. The per country limits are relaxed in the final quarter so that unused go to the over subscribed countries.
DOS has to be utterly dumb, insane and ludacris to make every category current, if these 33K are the only numbers available. If DOS and USCIS has statistics for the first 3 quarters ( first 2 quarters + 2 months of 3rd quarter) telling that all the visa numbers released were in the previous quarters were consumed 100%, they would not make it current. That kinda tells us that the numbers allocated in the first 3 quarters were severely under utilized. How severely? No one knows as DOS does not do per quarter statistics.
More over, If its written into law that DOS can only issue VB once per month, and cannot update it during the month, they cannot do a damn thing. If it's not, it comes down to the implementation and interpretation of the agency. USCIS and DOS can release an updated bulletin if they get an over whelming filings for EB 485. Again, there is not enough time for USCIS/DOS to prepare like they did for H1, because the rumor has been out for 4 or 5 days. It might happen in the 2nd week or so if its not written into law.
The sad part is lawyers who are supposed to give concrete information are driving these insane rumors and the beneficiaries are going crazy. Looks like some lawyers have to understand that "Some key strokes can cause significant damage to their reputation"

With all due sympathies, this is one of the funniest posts I have read in a long time....It helps to lighten up a bit every now and then considering we are all in this for a long haul...
Anyway, just wanted to let you know that I went through London back in 2004 and my experience was completely different. I went to the NYC consulate to get my TV for $50, yes just $50 and the whole paper work etc was done in less than 30min and I had to go back after 2 hours to collect my passport with a 1 year multiple entry stamped on it.
My point being, I think they have changed a lot of rules and made it more stringent after the recent security threats etc.
Getting a GC soon is our saviour
I had the misfortune of travelling thru London in December on my way to Mumbai. After I purchased my tickets, I learnt that I need a transit visa (TV) for UK. (Who is going to tell them (UK) that they are no longer the center of attraction esp. if you have lived and worked in US). Anyway, as per the rules, you need a transit visa if you don�t have a valid US visa. (Note: If you have AP, and don�t have a valid visa, you still need a TV).
I went to their site and did all the research to get a TV. Good god Heavens! Has anyone filled out their painful form for a TV? Besides asking the usual details, they get extremely nosy. They want to know each and everything about you. Where you work, what money do you make, name of your wife, kids and their citizenship status, name of your father and mother and where they were born, their birth date, how much money you have and where the money is (stocks, bonds, CDS) etc. etc. While filling up the form I realized that, even my future father in law did not pose so many probing questions to me. (Please note: I don�t mind answering these silly questions for a regular visa, but for the damn TV, it is certainly overkill).
Anyway to cut the long story short. The regular cost of TV is/was $92. However, when I filled up the application form they were asking for $184. (The satisfaction of getting a good deal on the tickets was quickly evaporating). I assumed I must have made a mistake in thinking the cost to be $92 and reluctantly paid $184. Next it was time to fill the application for my wife and answer the idiotic questions again. You should have seen the �I will kill you right now� look on my wife�s face after I woke her up in the middle of night and asked details about her parents. After I filled up the form, to my surprise, now they were asking $274 for visa fees. It was already 2:00 am and I have no choice but to painfully enter my credit card details, hoping that they would realize the mistake in their recon process and would reimburse the difference. (Of course, I was only dreaming).
It is now almost the end of January and I have still now received any money from them. I have tried sending several email to the emb(ass)y, but none of their emails work. I get bounced email for all the emails that I have used. I have tried calling them and left messages and no one has called back. I have send emails to my credit card company and the people who processed the payment and none of them have been able to help me. There is a way to talk to someone in the emb(ass)y, but you need to dial a 900 number, which BTW costs $2.49 per minute. Throwing good money after bad is not an option.
I just wanted to share this experience with you and remind you of the pain ahead, if you are travelling thru UK and don�t have a valid US visa. Personally, even if they had charged me the regular $92, I will still use other options to travel next time. The amount of time wasted in filling the crappy application form, going to NY, (starting Dec doing your finger prints) is simply too much to handle. Visiting your motherland/fatherland is a very special occasion and all these intermediate steps certainly water down the �good feeling� that you experience during the days leading to your trip.
I haven�t given up my quest for a refund, but now, not only I want my money back I would like to bring back home the Koh-i-noor too.

There are lot of people losing jobs because of L1. I totally agree with L1Fraud that we need to expose this racket and make sure everybody is following the rules, period....People like ganguteli must be on L1 and they will always support to continue this fraud. Bringing people on low wages on L1 is causing lot of pressure on salary and I have seen whole floors being replaced from this so called highly skilled people on L1. I'm not against immigration but against people/companies breaking the rules..
L1Fraud - Can you post on how to go about reporting this fraud. I know you mention about ICE? Do you have a format of letter and any suggestions on how to kick start the discussions and investigation....
Go to ICE.gov website or use the below link
"http://www.ice.gov/about/investigations/contact.htm"
Please find to which IO office your region is attached, call the investigations office and talk to investigator and they will direct you to the local officer/investigator. Call the local investigator and he'll arrange to have a face to face meeting and he'll direct you regarding all the petition process. Please PM me know if you need any specific details.

I think this is very well said. As much as I'd want the predictions to come true, somehow I sense the same observation as below. It appears this has been said in the past, but all we see is very little movement. Secondly, as I recall, DOS had hinted that there'll be advance for EB2 India, I don't know if they mentioned EB2 China? Has anyone seen DOS themselves talking about EB2 C? The reason I am raising this here, is that maybe when DOS had said "substantial movement for EB2 India", did they mean that India will move to China's date (From May to Jul 06, 3 months movement)?
Guys,
We rode the same wave even last year with many of the same Guru;s predicting the same movement to 2007 and what we saw 2 weeks movement . There was one person called QSHEMK who after that went completely out of the picture or has rejoined with a new name .
Also I have analyzed that people who have a date in 2008 somehow predict that the dates might move to 2008 and people who have a PD of July predict that dates will move to August . This is just an observation and nothing more , and if you go through the threads thats exactly what you will see.
I will be equally benefited as you all will if the predictions come true , but be well prepared for a major heartbreak also like last year .
While it takes a lot of effort from some of the members to crunch such numbers I would be first to extend my sincere gratitude to them for doing this , I would also recommend you all to take the analysis and predictions with a grain of salt and not to raise your hopes too much on these predictions.
It has seldom worked for the last 6 years at least . Hope it does this time . I speak from experience in IV since 2006.

The total number of applications excluding EB2, EB3 are 7,653.
The total visa's per annum -> 140,000
Considering that there would be more applications during the year from non-retrogressed countries/categories ..it is evident now that there won't be more than 5K such applications. On pessimistic side even if we consider 10K such applications, The visas available for retrogressed EB2 and EB3 should be around 120K this year.
Total pending EB2 is 74,932. So EB2 should be Current for all countries this year.
EB3 should get around 40K visas this year.
Any one disagrees?

I too had similar thoughts.. why would CIS/DOS stop keeping buffers? Is there any particular reason? Once they complete all 7/2007 applications I think it makes sense to move the date for a few months so they can accept applications. Also, remember there will be new monthly quota getting allocated to all categories. So to use those numbers should they not be progressing dates?
Rodnyb,
The below number is depressing, however dont you think DOS/USCIS always believe in keeping buffer and they may push the dates somewhere into 2009 just to accept 485 filings?
Why do think they will stop keeping any buffer?
[QUOTE=rodnyb;2494192]Teddy, I agree some of your data. Mine would be (90% confidence level)

Admin: If you like you may please close this thread.
Final update on this issue.
Here is what I have been told. Please feel free to check with AILA or your lawyer. They may have more info.
In general, if an employer applies for a permanent labor certification for an individual with the Department of Labor (DOL), while DOL has already certified one or more positions with same or different employer for the same individual , it will be subjected to more scrutiny to prevent any fraud.
Thank You and Good Bye!
Happy Porting !
I think multiple labors has multiple faces:
1. Good talent is sought after. So if one is really good, multiple companies would want to get them to work for them. That would result in multiple labor petitions.
2. Individuals who are scared (company not reputed; they had issues in the past; or any other reason) tend to approach multiple companies and have them file a labor for them as a "backup".
3. Someone gets laid off from their initial sponsoring company finds another sponsor and files a subsequent labor.
If DOL scrutinizes such petitioners more than others, then its good. That will weed out pretenders; but also on the other hand, that will put genuine candidates petiotions into a pre-adjudicated state.
But I do not think a government agency can risk getting caught doing that. Their motive has to be to build standards that can be applied equally to all applicants across the board. They should be able to catch issues with any application, not just of those who are doing multiple LCAs.

I'm planning on sining up for vonage. Please send me an IM and I'll respond back.
Because both of us are saving $50 each, I expect you will donate at least $25, and I'll will donate $25 for my part.
Thanks for supporting IV.

The second paragraph from the link says that the new spill-over policy is not a random, ad hoc decision by USCIS but rather a careful one after consulting congress etc.
"...after further review, additional legislation, and consultation with Congress, they concluded that they have to allocate the fall across within individual preference petitions first..."
I wonder what additional legislation he is talking about here. Was there anything new we know about? If consultation means finding the intent of congress I wonder how much of it is BS.
This whole thing does not look objective. Even if it is, in all likelihood we are getting screwed by something that can possibly be changed again under the right circumstances.

First of all, they cannot ask you for you work authorization during the interview process. Second, even during hiring time, they can only ask you if you need sponsorship for H1 or not. If at this point you say no, then they have no business asking you for what kind of work authorization you have (unless the job specifically asks for US citizen or security clearence).
That's true actually. They have no business asking you about details of what your work authorization status is. All they need to know is that you are legally allowed to work. Doesn't matter EAD, GC or US citizenship. Sponsoring for H1B might come up during the hiring stage but that doesn't apply here.
Hypothetically in an interview, if directly asked, and if I am planning on using EAD, I would simply tell them that I have authorization from the DHS to work for any employer, and leave it at that. If they persist, I will tell them that I have the required documents for I-9. No need for more details unless some kind of security clearance is required.

Here's a very good recent example
http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&taxonomyId=13&articleId=9111963&intsrc=hm_topic
Point to be noted is that this case was not dismissed on merit, but that plaintiff's have not been able to prove significant damages resulting from the rule. A general 'dissatisfaction' with the rule ( for e.g. my wait times will increase if porting continues) doesnot translate into significant damages ( such as I'm losing the job). The merit of the case was never discussed!.
It would be interesting to see how many of the 'Yes' are going to remain 'Yes' when it comes to having their names on a lawsuit filed against USCIS (the whole list will be going to USCIS). It will be interesting to see how many of you stridently remaining anonymous on a (relatively) harmless public forum such as IV are going to come out in public to fight the USCIS. Good luck guys.
And happy nightmares whenver your cases get (not so) Soft LUDs. Is it because you joined the case? you never know.
Good luck once more
Good post!
Since GC is for the future job, any damage such as "I am losing current job" is legally immaterial and irrelevant.

Point to be noted is that this case was not dismissed on merit, but that plaintiff's have not been able to prove significant damages resulting from the rule. A general 'dissatisfaction' with the rule ( for e.g. my wait times will increase if porting continues) doesnot translate into significant damages ( such as I'm losing the job). The merit of the case was never discussed!.
It would be interesting to see how many of the 'Yes' are going to remain 'Yes' when it comes to having their names on a lawsuit filed against USCIS (the whole list will be going to USCIS). It will be interesting to see how many of you stridently remaining anonymous on a (relatively) harmless public forum such as IV are going to come out in public to fight the USCIS. Good luck guys.
And happy nightmares whenver your cases get (not so) Soft LUDs. Is it because you joined the case? you never know.
Good luck once more
Good post!

Thank you for contacting me and expressing concern regarding
immigration.
As you are aware, the massive influx of illegal aliens is one of the
most important issues confronting our nation. According to the Center for
Immigration Studies, there are at least 8 million illegal immigrants in
the United States. The United States Census Bureau estimates that the
illegal population in the United States grows by at least 500,000 per
year. All Americans have good reason to be concerned about this issue,
given the dynamics of assimilation, language and employment raised by
illegal immigration.
Amnesty proposals and guest worker permits are just some of the options
that Congress currently is considering. Another possibility is the H2B
Working Visa, which allows foreign nationals to enter the United States
temporarily to meet a one-time need in non-agricultural employment.
This is a good option, but I would not support H2B visas whose provisions
could not be enforced strictly and were not offset by immigration
cutbacks in some other area.
The problem with most of the options before us is that they do not deal
with the fundamental problem at hand: Millions of immigrants have
entered the country illegally. When we can establish firm, thorough and
effective enforcement measures we can better address the appropriate level
and need for H1 and L1 visas.
Border control is essential for our economic and physical security. I
appreciate your deep concern with this issue, and will keep your
thoughts in mind as Congress considers our legislative options.
Again, thank you for contacting me. Feel free to contact me again if I
might be of assistance in the future
----------
Indeed i approached him specifically for backlog reduction and other important features (similar to those in S1932 Sec8001) but i got the above response.
Anyway, one thing is very clear: We need to increase efforts in a much productive manner to clearly emphasise on legal immigration which is broken & SHALL NEVER be kept in the same tray of illegal immigration

Did you send 7001 to Ombudsman? So, Ombudsman is also hopeless?
Did you call them to find out the status? Here is Om's #, in case you don't know: 202-282-8000. Call them and update us as well.

I called the members and most of the calls went to voicemail. Left a message urging them to support the bill. I also started posting this in our university Indian student Association group so that they can start calling. I thank IV for the telephone numbers.
Call all your friends in other companies and ask them to call, specially the oes who do not visit IV. Let them know.
