I don't know if the memo thing is correct or not but I did call NSC using POJ method and I was told not to expect anything before Oct 1st.

Good question. I was wondering that too. Though I have taken an appointment for Monday 8/24.
Have a weird feeling, all 2004 will be cleared this time. We deserve it the most in EB2 and its been so unjustful for us.

You asked for a legal person to respond to your ad and you do not have resources to verify. You can say if she was legal to work and she said yes.
They can not work here on a B1 visa. You should report and give the vedio to Law-enforcement.

First of all let me thank all of you who responded to this thread positively or negatively. I have a humble request. Please make sure that the comments that you post in this thread are not finger pointers to anyone else in the community. Please provide your positive or negative comments about this idea. Also make sure that your comments are not cynical ones which will just put this idea into the dust bin. If you can't motivate, please do not discourage others from getting some motivation and giving motivation. Without positive energy and a conducive environment, we will not achieve anything. If you have high cynical opinion, please hold that with you - as it will help you as well - because by doing that, you are helping this community to work on an issue with positive energy. If there is some positive outcome of the effort by this community, you too can enjoy the fruit. So, my point is, your biggest help would be keeping quiet. Let�s have a constructive and productive brain storming.
Even after this brain-storming, if our conclusion is negative, we should not give up. We should continue to work on this and if this requires a legislative change, still this may be an easy one as it won�t add any new GC numbers to the existing quota. This just removes the UNCERTAINITY surrounds our life. What I meant was, there won�t be much ammunition that the protectionists and anti-immigrants can gather against this effort.
I can completely understand the user Ganguteli�s frustration. He has a very valid point too, with respect to applying for I-485 when dates are not current. As I quoted earlier �A journey of a thousand miles begins with a small step.�. So, we should continue this effort in small steps instead of a big bang method. In this current economic environment, if our proposal is too big, it could get ignored within no time. Administration will say that, we will do this along with Comprehensive Immigration reform or something like that. We may add a reasonable addition to this proposal to fix the problems of folks like Ganguteli. Something like, if your 140 is approved and 1 year has passed, the person must be able to apply for 485 irrespective of whether his country is retrogressed or not. I am not sure about the legality of all these. That�s where the importance of this community emerges. If we can work together, we can solve all our problems in small steps.
If IV and our community take this as a priority item to work on, I will provide $500.00 as an initial aid to this effort. I could offer more on the way.
An interesting idea to say the least. Out of box suggestion.
However, there are few things, from legal point of view, it needs to overcome. I will post my detailed comments this afternoon.
Once again, this is a great idea!

Hello Everybody,
This is my story,
1 - Came to US on B2 (visit visa) in October, 1999. My legal stay way valid till April, 2000
2- Found an employer and in March, 2000 filed for H1B/extension of stay. Lawyer at the time told me that since we filed H1 i don't need to file any other extension of stay
3- August, 2000 received approval notice of my H1 but approval notice mentioned start date of October, 2000 rather than March, 2000 as requested in the petition and approval notice did not have the I-94 card attached with it meaning they did not change my status. Appealed the decision and got some feedback from USCIS that they will look into this. Started working for the company in October, 2000. In January, 2001 Company received another notification from USCIS but I was never provided the copy so not sure what was the decision and was told all is fine but never provided the final approval notice. When i checked case status back in January 2001 it said case approved and approval notice sent. However when I check online case status now I see following,
Application Type: I129, PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER
Current Status: Cable sent to American Consulate or port of entry notifying them of approval.
On September 7, 2001, the appropriate American Consulate or port of entry was notified of the approval of this case. Please contact them directly if you need more information.
4 - In 2002 transferred my H1 to new company and got the approval with new I-94 card without any issues.
5- In 2004 transferred my H1 to another company without any issues and I�m with that company since then. They filed my labor, I-140 which has been approved and now ready to file I-485. Lawyer of this company wants to attach the approval notice of my first H1 from 2000 with I-94 card attached to it showing proof of my change of status which i don't have. I have approval notice without I-94 card from 2000.
6- I also left the country in 2006 and went to Canada for two weeks and then came back in the same month without any issues.
Current lawyer is fling I-485 without my first approval notice from 2000. Do you think this would cause issues or generate RFE for I-485? I heard that once you leave the country and re-enter legally all previous status issues if any are put to rest, I left the country in July 2006 and re-enter in the same month?
Please provide your input on my case...many thanks!!!

I sent out an email about IV and this thread to my family and friends today and One of my friend called and said he will make a contribution. so let's see. I have posted about this thread on the Southern California Yahoo groups and sent emails to some IV members I have met recently. so we will see how this turns out. My thought is to keep this thread active throughout the Holidays season. We have 6 weeks to go this year and 23,000 members. Let's see how much we can raise in this time frame.
At one of the booths we had in Southern California a couple of weeks ago a gentleman happened to stop by and said "your orgnization is so strong you can raise funds easily because it only takes every member in your group to contribute 10$ and you will have close to 250k in funds in no time". If it's that easy my dream will definately come true :confused:

Hey Friends -
We need to keep a track of the number of flowers being sent. So if you are sending flowers, then make sure that you respond appropriately to the poll in this thread. It is very difficult to go through all the posts individually to figure out the total count.

I know I will get red dots for this since you are super moderator, but again IV is a free speech based org, I am a Masters (advanced education) from a very prestigious US university with full scholarship with 4.0 GPA and in EB3 employment category. Eduation and EB catergory are two different things, one would think that would be clear by now.
the point is well taken. but the categories and priorities were created to be based on the jobs too.
and there are people in EB3 with bachelors degrees only. so what? it's meant for jobs that need a bachelors degree. it is indeed your misfortune to be in EB3. and we all know that its a problem and that is why we are fighting for reform. however, the comments made by ns33 were inappropriate and needlessly divisive.
look, i am not trying to pull down EB3 folks in any way form or manner. my comments were exclusively meant to explain the need for categories to my friend who has been whining on this thread about iv being about EB2 and the need to give EB3 Gc numbers AHEAD of EB2. that is hardly a solution.
now, for the last time, if this does not stop, i will indeed close this thraed.
it will be too bad though for the original posters and topic.

Here is another story. My spouse has been working for the same firm for 7 years now. After finishing her Cost Accountancy in India, she received MS in Accounting and MBA in systems management from a top B-School in the US. Even then, her case was filed under EB-3, after a two-year wait because her company does not immediately process GC for newcomers. Her case went to the Dallas BEC for LC clearance in 2003. After that we haven�t heard a peep from the Dallas BEC. Her lawyers, one of the top law firms in the county, are not helpful at all. They wouldn�t tell us our case number so that we can check the status ourselves or tell us what they are doing to pursue the case. Apparently, the company has been burnt by employees who have left the day after getting their GC. Hence, the Law firm�s motto is mum and the HR department in the company is not doing very much to assist. Besides assuming that miraculously the LC is approved, the EB-3 for India is so badly retrogressed�well, we feel hopeless. Moreover her company has a bond agreement, if anyone leaves before completing 2 years of full-time service after receiving the GC they have to pay a fine of 10 grand. Her job involves extensive travel, which is really putting a strain on our family. However, we are in no position to change jobs, even within the same firm. I can apply, but then, it is another 6 grand for processing and I will be way back on the line, and the standards for EB-1 is so exacting and the paperwork required is so daunting that it will take months to get all the paperwork and letters together. And, my school is not very enthusiastic about sponsoring people under EB-2. Anyway, what�s the point of filing under EB-2 now?

hello guys, i just went through all the 6 pages but still am confused.
This is how my name appears on my passport:
First name- ______(blank!)
Last Name- Ravneet.
one every US document including SSN, License, Job, its listed as FNU Ravneet.
I am on F1 visa, working on my OPT. My student visa just expired but my OPT-EAD is valid till june09. I feel very embarassed when asked" how do u say ur first name", I need to have it changed, could somebody tell me step by step the process involved.
I can drive to NY consulate and have my passport changed, but then how to change every US document, I mean would a expired US visa be a issue? My EAD is valid and I am legally in status. Please guide!
It is clear that FNU stands for First Name Unknown. Question is why did you allow this to happen even in your first document. Perhaps for passport you didn't bother because it is blank, but letting FNU appear as your first name in a document does not make any sense. First thing should be to try for the passport office, and hope that they will correct it based on whatever your documentation (school certificate etc) can support. Perhaps it might be that what is shown as your last name, is in fact your first name, etc.
