Moreover, the decision totally ignores the fact that "The basis for adjustment is not actual (current) employment but prospective employment" and the entire answer to Q10 in Part I of the Aytes Memo od 12/25/05

The court decision is correct. The I-140 has been withdrawn before 180 days and that was fatal for I-485.

Tired of waiting ( PD: August 2001) I finally wrote to both my local congressman and Senator today. My senator is on senate Immigration commitee so lets see what happens. Hopefully something will move.
If this doesnt help I will try Ombudsman next after couple of months. The Ombudsman form has a question of if you have tried through Congressman etc first so we can try and see that.
Guys its so funny when you see ppl with PD of 2003 and 2005 complaining and bitching. Here we have waited 7 + yrs our PD's are current and we are doing OK. Wait sure brings maturity :)
can you send me a copy of what you wrote so i can also do the same!

I am not on EAD but on H1-B. I have a approval notice until 09/30/2010, but did not got the visa stamped. How should I replace "the EAD" portion in the letter?
Thanks
Yes, I have similar question. Do we really need to send a letter. last time, I do not think that I sent a letter. Akhil, please let us know about EAD Vs H1B ?

If you had the opportunity of getting a Substitute labor and potentially get your GC sooner rather than later, wouldn't you grab it with both hands. It is the GC Freedom.
I am also thankful that DOL and USCIS have banned Labor Substitutions but please give those who have used them a break. They are also in the same boat as you and me (people with regular labor). Chasing the American Dream. No offense intended.:o
not in same boat as you and me buddy. They are in a boat ahead of me and you....

You know that's my point. do you really think we can't do nothing more?.....
we are highly sklilled smart and great immigrants creating the new America of the 21st century we can't just say, thats it lets wait.....
This country is about money, and we have the tremendous advantage that elections are coming, lets see the big picture.. why dont we jump to the next level from street protesters to work with one of the candidates or 2 or 3 , if they see money they will push our cause. Lets work on that now...
So those guys who attended the hearings or met with senators. what was the result? what did they accomplished? did they get the opportunity to participate with the senator or law maker in an action plan? or we just wasted that opportunity asking for autographs? please those guys post your comments.
I'm no negative just wondering how to measure the success of the rally?
Dear Friend
As you said nothing will happen now, The Whole idea of rally is create awareness among the lawmakers.
In a Old say " The Person who plant a mango tree will not be able to eat that mango, however the next generation will do" I assume that person is selfless.
Let us all hope the best

I would not call you pessimistic. You are SELFISH. Sure you do not share the same enthu because this announcement does not offer you anything. Grow up and feel for others. Everyone knows that there will be a backlog and that is an issue we have to deal with once we get there.
I wont even get in a pissing match with you. YOu are free to believe what ever you want.
if you read my post you will see my concern is about the system not working.
I can make a similar argument about you and others. You are so concerned about your benefit today, that you dont see the harm it may do to H1b holders and future candidates for I-485.
If it makes you feel good you can fly to washington and thank them for the blessings after the announcement. So whatever makes your boat floats...

Anna,
This is childish. Sorry!
LOL!
Funny that I am not upset at your questions, but are you really serious??
What were you thinking all this time when the rally was going on? Did you really think the lawmakers would sit together over a dinner yesterday and hand over a favorable decision in the breakfast next morning?
Just wait! If we don't get something favorable, we will do MORE and BIGGER.
...and next time, we'll also pick you up to the rally to carry our autograph books...hehe..just kidding.

Venky ,
good to hear your positive approach toward future . But realistically , i wonder how long does it take for a new innovation to get outsourced . AS Narayana murthy said , there would not be anything which does not need human contact in coming future that cannot be out sourced ...(not exact words but with same intent :o
Your are thinking under two assumptions:
1. There is nothing left for innovation in the tech field. so no new job creation is expected in the future.
2. There will be more supply of tech workers which will surpass the job creation rate (if in any amount) thereby depressing the wages.
who is to know that your assumptions are correct? :confused:
Whereas the reality is the job creation has been exponentially growing because of emerging technologies and the will to immigrate to US is surely on decrease and add reverse brain drain to it.
but there is increasing work force on the other side world who is dreaming to come here ...so i feel the rate of reverse brain drain will be less that influx as long as the demand exist.
So for next 5-10 years it will become increasingly difficult to find talented people as they will be evaporated from the market because of 65K H1B cap for last 3 years and a huge outflux of talented professionals.
I said this before in my previous posts and i will say it again. I you are worth your salt and know what you are doing, you will be worth your weight in gold in coming years. Stick to the fight and get your GC. :cool:
--- i should stop going to GYM so can i weigh more :o
(BTW, for these opinions, i am inspired by a recent book i read on globalization- The world is Flat by Thomas Friedman. I think it shall be a must read for every H1B to GC applicant)

Being on the other side (EB3-ROW) I read the law a bit differently ;-)
In short:
- INA 202 (a) (2) establishes a 7% country limit for both FB and EB categories together and per fiscal year.
- INA 202 (a) (3) allows to make unused visas available per quarter in excess to the 7% country limit.
- INA 202 (e) specifies that any visas in excess to 7% must be distributed equally to FB and EB, and each sub-categories.
- INA 202 (a) (5) gives preference to EB (over FB) and determines the allottment for additional visas with preference to EB1 over EB2, etc.
INA 202 (a) (5)
If the total number of visas available under paragraph (1), (2), (3), (4), or (5) of section 203(b) for a calendar quarter exceeds the number of qualified immigrants who may otherwise be issued such visas, the visas made available under that paragraph shall be issued without regard to the numerical limitation under paragraph (2) of this subsection during the remainder of the calendar quarter.
I guess the question here is, what does "visas available" in conjunction with INA 203(b) mean.
INA 203 (b) (3) (EB3)
[...] Visas shall be made available, in a number not to exceed 28.6 percent of such worldwide level, plus any visas not required for the classes specified in paragraphs (1) and (2) [...]
The way I read it all this is that the rules in INA 203 (b) (1)...(5) should be applied first before INA 202 (a) (5), ie. additional visas are only available if EB-3 ROW is current.
So, the allottment should work as follows:
Any unused visas in EB-1 (with regards to 7% country limit) will spill over to EB-2, and unused visas from EB-2 to EB-3, etc. If there are still unused visas, they will be used for countries that are subject to the 7% limit, first in EB-1, then EB-2, etc.
Even before AC21 rule enacted in 2000, there was no �hard� country cap as per INA then. [...]
INA 202 (a) (3)
Therefore, the 7% country cap had always been �soft� till year 2000.
(*Note: DOS do not mix FB and EB categories for visa number allocation/calculation to meet the per country limit. They keep both in separate track to meet separately the 7% limit)
I would disagree with the premise in your note. You could also read it that the 7% applies to the sum of both FB and EB categories: "[T]he total number of immigrant visas [...] under subsections (a) and (b) [...] may not exceed 7 percent [...] of the total number of such visas made available under such subsections [...].�
Subsection (e) actually seems to suggest that any additional visas have to be allotted proportional to FB and EB categories:
[I]INA 202 (e)
If it is determined that the total number of immigrant visas [...] will exceed the numerical limitation [...] visa numbers with respect to natives of that state or area shall be allocated (to the extent practicable and otherwise consistent with this section and section 203) in a manner so that -
(1)
the ratio of the visa numbers made available under section 203(a) to the visa numbers made available under section 203(b) is equal to the ratio of the worldwide level of immigration under section 201(c) to such level under section 201 (d);
After year 2000, AC21 has completely removed country cap in each employment category, if excess visas are available in each preference categories.
I guess the important phrase in the law is IF ADDITIONAL VISAS AVAILABLE. You seem to interpret 203 (b) as only up to 28.5% are available without the ones spilled over from higher categories.
In short:
- INA 202 (a) (2) establishes a 7% country limit for both FB and EB categories together and per fiscal year.
- INA 202 (a) (3) allows to make unused visas available per quarter in excess to the 7% country limit.
- INA 202 (e) specifies that any visas in excess to 7% must be distributed equally to FB and EB, and each sub-categories.

AP is sent to the lawyer if you filed the G328
Not always true, I've filed G-28 in my case, but received the AP at my residence address. Have friends/colleagues who had received AP at the attorney address. So it is kinda random. No logic behind this.
It is important we get the document.

Pappu,
Reality is DREAM act is directly connected to HISPANIC votes for Democrats, EB community doesnt have any VOTING rights, neither they get any support from the folks who are already GC/UScitizenship holders.
Once people are out of this GC mess, they all start talking about anti immigration and that's the reality, u go to any indian community around and see how much support you have from those folks who have GC/US citizenship.
That brings a new point for IV leadership. In line with HISPANIC movement, can we take/seek help from various associations of India/China like the ones in link Indian Associations in the US : NRI Desi Associations in USA : India Social, Cultural, Religious Organisations (http://www.thokalath.com/North-America/Indo-American-Community.php)

I understand your situation as i was there once. If you dont have insurance than your options are very limited. if you live in dallas county parkland hospital is your only choice. Parkland has a network of several clinics around DFW area. Every clinic has financial assistance department. You can visit any of those and they will setup a payment plan which is reasonable based on your income. You will visit them for all prenatal care and when the time comes for delivery it will be taken to parkland. and parkland is a very good hospital as well. beside parkland several hospitals also offer cash plans like RHD memorial at 635 but they will charge you close to 4k just for delivery day and if its a normal one. you will have to do prenatal at your own.
