If they're asking for 150% more money, is the service going to be 150% better too??? Are we going to get our forms processed 150% faster too??
Since USCIS calls itself a "customer-focussed" organization, I certainly hope so...

If you have a company's blank letter head and genuine salary slips then every thing goes...
I know after we file the i-485 for 180 days, we can change our jobs. But rule is that the new job should be in the same field as the old one.
Can i change my job from a biological researcher to a biostatistician? My current job is in the field of biology, which involves lots of experiments. If I change my job to a biostatistician, which is like a programmer, do i still qualify the "similar filed" rule? thanks for your help!

I would like to request all the senior members at IV to help us with these questions:
1. The official expected delay in visa issuance in case of extra processing is 3 weeks and the DOS has conveniently left the additional administrative processing delay open ended which in turn has left us all law abiding professional non-immigrant/immigrant workers out of our jobs, away from our families and friends and homes for an exceptionaly long time. Is this worthy of a lawsuit/class action lawsuit given the number of people who are suffering?
2. DOS officials refuse to inform the applicants why and where their applications are stuck and how much longer it is expected to delay. Is this worthy of a lawsuit/class action lawsuit given the number of people who are suffering? Why can't the DOS come out with a bi-weekly report on how many people applied for visas, who were denied and who are referred to AAP (and how long each AAP applicant has been delayed)?
3. DOS VISA/ US immigration law does not seem to have any mechanism to protect the rights (do we have any rights or not is also a question) of those who get delayed unjustly (unjustly because they do not have any known criminal background and yet are treated like criminals). Is this worthy of a lawsuit/class action lawsuit given the number of people who are suffering?
4. So many of us in the security check are getting delayed just because our names are similar to known criminals in the databases. I wonder how many people by the name of "Timothy" (of the Timothy McVeigh of oklahoma bombing fame) or other US citizens whose names are similar to people taking part in various conflicts around the world are delayed/denied entry into the country for so long because of this illogical association. Does this "similar name so you are a criminal too" policy of DOS lend itself to judicial review?
5. In many cases remember that justice delayed is justice denied (as many of us will not be able to return due to reasons such as job loss or delay beyond I-797 approved time.
Sorry for this long post but many of us have these questions in mind. If you could tell us what are the problems we can face (finances, resources, etc.) if lawsuit/class action lawsuit route is adopted it would be of great help. Are there any organizations in US who can take up our cause (such as ACLU). Even if you say that this will be a futile exercise, it will at least help us all accept our fate a little better.
Thanks in advance.

EB2 likes visa bulletin predictions.
EB3 does not.
That explains the green or red in my opinion.
Accessing IV forums after a long time... posting to this thread, though not predecting on VB's... May be the data that were made available through USCIS Home Page (http://www.uscis.gov) (http://www.uscis.gov/USCIS/New%20Structure/3rd%20Level%20(Left%20Nav%20Children)/Green%20Card%20-%203rd%20Level/Pending%20Form%20I485%20Reports.pdf) already gave some hint on how the PD's are going to be in the monthly VB's and most people understand the number and are not predicting any good movement and not posting any on threads like this. Only the luckly EB2-I folks, who are getting a good chunk of the numbers for now thorugh spill over etc want to predict.. but again, too many questions there too... if quartely spillover or will happen in FY last quarter or something else... or .... The VB's / PD's etc.. nothing is going to make any difference and ease the pain of pending EB AOS applicants, unless there is change in law that would provide something to alleviate the EB backlog... When it is going to happen.. any time from now and at the least we can hope will happen before the end of Obama's Presedency like we hoped CIR would have happened before Bush left office :mad:

Yes lets corporate... Let me file first and then you can file it next... Do you think this will work? I really don't understand why everybody is coming with new thred and new idea about filing...Why can't we spend little time on what core member asks us to do.
Member even don't feel like contributing just $50.. You think they will buy this idea.. I don't mean to hurt you but we should do at least something before we expect others to do something.
I understand that there is lot of fear among applicants that USCIS might retrogress the dates interimly sometime in july due to the expected high volume of applications filing in the begining of july.
To minimise the chance of USCIS from taking any such steps, shall we all unite and file the applications on a specific date in july probably on 30th of july? This will accomodate all applicants...so that we shall all be winners and use this opportunity to our advantage instead of competing amongst each other...where only a few will be winners and others will be loosers.
This will also reduce the pressure among applicants , attorneys and doctors.
Can the AILA cooperate? Will there be unity amongst applicants to make this possible??? any ideas ??

Thanks for applying and for the quick reply. Your skill set and experienced matched what we are looking for, and you passed the prescreening with perfect scores, except we can not hire anybody that requires sponsorship at this time. If you applied with a mistake on that prescreening question, please change the answer on the prescreening questions. Thank you and good luck!

Probably, nothing wrong to discriminate against h1b holders, but discrimination against citizens maybe taken seriously. As such, it is at company's discretion to hire u or not, internally, from what I learnt, if the company decides to hire u, they hire u, if not, they may give u this as a reason because they may have found someone with same skills but without requirement for sponser.
If a company desperately needs u, they will do anything to hire u. If company thinks it must not have to deal with legal issues and overheads, it may not hire u, may keep u on hold.
Basically, we are on our own, and we can only try and try. It is the land of opportunities, and there will be opportunities for everyone somewhere.

Some one gave me a RED dot for this posting. It is as follows

Guys, we need keep away these kind of people from IV participation. There should be some restrictions (rules and regulation). These are the people who don't know what they are doing. GOD only can save them.
We are here for to work and live and represent as a forum to fight against a broken system. Looks like we have issues among us.
We either take away GREEN/RED dot concepts from bothering others or do some thing else (display who has given RED/GREEN dots).

I do not unterstand why so many people here cry on others. You discuss about your problem and try to find ways to resolve. Everybody has to resolve their own issues first(let it be small or big). People in FP, EAD stage can not cry on people who already got GC or citizenship.
Thats true..everybody are bothered about EAD and FP. I am here for more than 8 years in this country. IV should emphasise this and USICS should allow affected candidates like us to file I-485 and atleast get EAD. we have priority date earlier compared to others.

Mark Kirkoreiean's (or whatever his name is) thesis is that not everyone who gets a green card through EB is a genius, and that is not good for America. "Einstein" here doesn't understand that it takes more than a genius to make a company successful, and thereby create more jobs for your average Joe. If you are in the business of developing cutting edge technology, you certainly need some very smart people in your labs. But the guy who actually gets the product out of the door is your moderately above average skilled employee who knows how to get the job done. The whole argument that America needs the "best and the brightest" only is terribly flawed. And what better example than this Kericorien (or whatever his name is) character himself. In his testimony, he suggests that EB should be limited to EB1, and that too, to about 15K. Great, these 15K people will be able to do the job of the 500K gainfully employed individuals whose EB application is pending. Super! Good luck with selling that Mark.
After reading what Mr Mark had to say i must say i m furious but at the same time i understand what he is trying to do viz Misguide!
Folks like Krikorian thrive on donations made by misguided people (in the name of not-for profit and enticing them with tax exemptions). You don't have to be an "Einstein" to figure that out but you have to be at least EB3 category :D
Reminds me of the Simcox guy of the minuteman project who raised millions and fooled a lot of people in the name of border fence which turned out to be a cow fence at best.
And now a little prayer to calm down Soul!
"May Mark Krikorian always be surrounded by Illegals and us EB2 and EB3 category immigrants" :D
P.S- I generally don't mix Illegals with us.. but I made an exception just for Mr Mark, I'm sorry if that offends anyone.

Hi,
Here is my situation:
Company A:
EB2 PD Aug 2006
140 Approved
485 Applied July '07 (Got EAD and AP for myself and wife. I am still on H1B but wife used EAD)
Still working with Company A and intend to work with them for another couple of years.
Company B:
EB2 PD Nov 2005 (Substitution labor)
140 Approved.
Can I interfile or do the PD porting so that I can get the older PD? If so, do I have to work for Company B?
I dont have a copy of the LCA and I may not have the original of the approved 140. Can I use a copy of 140 approval notice to apply for the interfile?
Do I need any kind of document from Company B like employment letter in future ?
Does the PD need to be current to interfile?
Do I need to work for Company B?
Does this process in anyway create problems for my current 485 status? My wife used EAD but I have been on H1B with the company that filed for my 485.
I already completed 180 days after filing 485. So, I can use AC21. Will this interfiling process have any impact on that?
How would I know that interfiling process completed successfully?
If USCIS denys the interfile I submitted, does that have any impact on my current 485 process?
If I want to use AC21, does that new job need be similar to Company A or Company B job requirement?
Thank you everyone..
My case is similar to yours except for me the company was the same for both I140s. The only thing my lawyer sent with the request was the Original I140 Approval Notice on the Second (Older PD) I140 (In your case that is Company A's I140). When the AOS application was filed, the Original I140 of Company A was used. The basic content of the letter is already explained in previous posts on this thread. Read them carefully. Also, consult a prudent and capabale lawyer who has some experience in successful Interfiling cases.
If both the I140s are approved on your name, there should be no issue as they have already done all the work related to Proferred Wage, DOL work categories (SOC codes), etc. AOS is just for adjustment into PR status on the basis of approved I140, of which you have two.
I am no lawyer, therefore, please consult a good lawyer to make sure all your questions are answered.
Hope this helps.

Sometimes in your life you make bad decisions. It happened unfortunately, because my PD is June 2004 EB2 and when dates became current last year, I thought it needs to move just 3 months to have my date current and as per DOS release there were only 3400 visas in EB2 for 2004.
Unluckily I chose for CP instead of 485 and now lying in a dark well.
Anyway please don't sympathize, I'll certainly come out of this situation very soon.
That still doesnt explain why you chose CP over normal AOS. PD wise, it would not have mattered either ways. Also if you feel that you are going to come out of this issue soon then why do you want IV to take up this cause anyways? Dont get me wrong i am not trying to be mean here, I am just not sure why you are proposing what you are proposing.

Anyone is VIRGINIA interested in meeting with legislators? I am in Fairfax County, VA. Apart from posting here please PM me as well so we can get in touch quickly for the meeting.
Get the appointment with your congressman by yourself and then try to find company to go with. If you cannot find anyone who can go with you, then go alone and do your thing.
Get the documents from varsha or sanjay as mentioned in the first post and please follow the steps. They are very easy and everyone can do this alone if they cannot find other members in their local area to go with them.
Thanks,

This is relevant because some of us have EAD which is legal authorization to work (restricted though) or spouses have EADs (unrestricted). Placing barriers like US citizens only or Greencard holders only is discriminatory.
