The only thing that can help us predict Sep bulletin is how many visa # have been used so far from 2009 quota. Since USCIS will be rushing to use up all visa # the quantity can least give us an idea if dates will move few months or few years. USCIS should not have trouble with either since they have so many pre-adjudicated applications to take care of both scenario's. I am pretty optimistic (realistically confident) that there will be a forward movement.

This Tracker facility we have in IV is good. Kudos to the Admin team who implemented this thing.
These are my observations. I could be grossly mistaken. Pardon me if I am wrong.
There are approximately 26,000 people who have put in their priority dates and other such data in the tracker. When I compared similar cases, I got some 265 who were EB3 India with a priority date in 2002. That is approximately 1 %, give or take.
Here I have ignored EB3 India 2001 guys. But that number would be very less I believe.
1% of 400k is 4000 which is what USCIS issues GC for EB3 India in a year.
Does that mean I could get my GC this year.
Hope these numbers are right.
We are going to clean up data further in the coming weeks. People who have missing fields may not be part of the tracker etc. The analysis will also be expanded to give more representation of the data from all angles. We are also working on some more features in the tracker that will make it really informative. At this time we are waiting for everyone to input their data or update their data and also get others who do not have a profile on IV to come here and input their data. Please help us in this task and bring everyone to IV tracker. Once we have more data that can help us represent a better % of the overall actual applications in USCIS data, the analysis will be much better. At a later stage we are thinking of bringing some statistics experts on board to create monthly analysis of the data and publish report for our members.

We are planning to visit India in Nov 08 after three years. I would be using my AP to return after 4 weeks. My wife is planning to stay there for seven months and plans to return using AP. Based on what I see on this thread, seems like it would be very risky for my wife to use AP to re-enter after a seven month period.
I'm still working on H1B and my wife on H4 ( although she has an EAD, she doesnt work). We have H1B approval valid till March 09. My wife would be re-entering in June 09. I'm in the process of renewing my H1 and H4.
If my wife gets her H4 stamping then she can re-enter in June 09 using H4 visa. I plan to re-enter using AP in Nov 08.
I am also planning to consult my lawyer. Would this work out? Gurus, pls. help
No need to use AP to travel when you are in valid H1 status, and are continuing to work with the GC sponsoring employer. You can use the valid h1 stamp to reenter without any risk to the pending 485
Spouse can travel and reenter on H4 even if she has a valid AP provided that you maintain H1 status. Note that H4 is a derivative of H1 status. H4 status ends once EAD is used for work purposes. If the EAD is used for work, then it is safest to travel and re-enter on AP.

From the above link: "Police say the suspect fits the description of a gunman who robbed another man earlier this morning on Michael Road, and shot him in the leg. The victim in that incident is expected to recover".
Indian news sites are saying the guy is dead! donno what to believe
The news item was posted on January 13th and it appears at that time the guy was only wounded in the leg. I think he was declared dead in the hospital.

You said Labor do says BS+5 year Exp. is OK.
If nothing comes up...Check if your original employer files New I140 to consider you in EB3 instead of EB2 using same labor.
digging through my old documents now.
I was mistaken reading the labor cert application. It did say "we accept BS + 5 years progressive experience".
I am 3 year Eng diploma + 1 year Eng post Diploma + 10 year exp in India + 5year Exp in US before filing Labor Cert .
I do have a copy of the Educational evaluation used by my old attorney which says US master equivalent.
As one member pointed out , there is a possibility that my original employer might have sent a letter saying Labor cert has mistakes but I have no way to confirm that . Or it could that the Officer is just trying to find any small thing to make the case deny.
I am digging all my old docs to give it to my attorney and see what he is going to day .
Thanks for all the support folks .

some people get it easily and some dont. Bridgeport, CT DMV is very crowded most of the time and tough to get things done. There are a lot of people of a kind that come there and it is tough. you must try Westport etc kind of areas next time.

None of the Amitabh Bachans did any thing for slums,Danny Boyle Made a very good movie.I think the fact is Rehman is a prodigy no doubt about that, he makes very good music we all know that.As compared to Hollywood directors Bollywood directors are subpar with the exception of very few good ones. Movie business is controlled in India by few families,what ever the movies they make rest of the people will watch it.I dont want to open the bollywood can of worms.Movie directors in India are usually sons of Bollywood actors or some one related to Bollywood.
I am sure none of the Bollywood directors would ever be able to make good movies,they dont have a global outlook,neither the needed juice. usually Bollywood directors are some low key high school drop outs who have connections with mafia.
If some one who is reallly talented is not going to make it in Bollywood,Southern Film industry is even worse.

This is an amazing forum, and I would like to thank you all for the useful information.
I know, it's going to be a long journey, but a start would definitely help.
Thanks, :)
You may have an alternate option without taking the MS...
See the following link: RAMPS International INC. - Immigration Information (http://www.rampscorp.com/immigration.htm)
In the case of H1 it says: "....An accredited United States evaluation company can provide an evaluation whereby three years of progressive work experience are considered equivalent to one year of college education in the event the foreign national has only a three year bachelors degree....".
So, I think it is really worthy to explore whether it is possible to convert 3 years of experience into 1 year equivalent of education.
I do not think, you really need to take an MS to be considered for EB2. Contact Murthy law firm, I think they will definitely be able to handle difficult cases like this.
Or else, you just take a 20 minute appointment with one of their experienced lawyers and they will be able to give you a firm answer. It costs somewhere between $150 and $250 for a 20 mt appointment.

And you are defending a guy who has committed shop-lifting with this? You should have probably come out with more ammunition than this. Because of ppl like the OP and maybe you, we Indians are getting a really bad rep everywhere. I am sick and tired of defending our community, when ppl like you and the OP defend (or even condone, in the name of an immigration query) such acts with no compunction. Shame on the OP and for defending him, YOU!
OP, please get lost from this forum and from this country. This country is not for criminals like you (there are enough already). I wish you had gotten a stricter sentence than what you got. And those of you that want to defend the OP or the folks that condone such acts, in the name of immigration, dont need to lecture me on taking this stance - just get lost, will ya!
I wish the Admins delete this thread and not encourage such postings!
Did my post suggest in any way that I was defending the guy? I was only ridiculing those who were bad mouthing him.
Are you suggesting that my post would have scored more points if I came out with more ammunition? I did not post in order to win your accolades. The fact that you felt there is not enough ammunition, suggests to me that you think it is perfectly fine to do all those filthy things I was referring to. This tells me about your moral standard.
You had to assume that I probably have a criminal issue too, and thats why I was defending the original poster? Is that the best your mind can think of?
You are sick and tired of defending our community? Do you imply that most people from our community have turned to criminal acts these days, and so you are tired? Because, I have not seen that around the people that I move around with. Is it all too common in your circles and the people you associate with?
You most probably have half the education that I have, your salary is most likely half that of mine, and your moral standard is probably half that of mine. If I start ridiculing you more, you will suffer sleepless nights. So I won't do it (after this post, I mean).
You don't post bullshit in a public forum, just because you can't see the people you are talking to, infront of you. Would you dare call the original poster 'thief' if he is standing infront of you? Would you call him that, if he is a friend of your roommate and your roommate brings him over to your house? The internet must be a new technology for you. Please learn how to use it to spread some love.
To the poster above you:
It is true that the law does not impose punishments on backstabbers, womanizers, sexual perverts, etc. Prostitution is legal in a lot of countries. The fact that the law permits some things, does not have any bearing on the moral severity or the lack thereof, of those things. Would you choose a 'prostitute' over a 'shop lifter' for a wife? If these are the only 2 options, I would be content with a shop lifter. Would you choose a 'prostitute' because there are no criminal issues involved and you will get your greencard faster?
Even though not many people have posted in support of my post, my reputation has gone up, and yours probably went down. Please don't respond just because you want a revenge.
I will always stand up for the one weak guy who is bullied by a 100 really nice & powerful ones. This can't be called defending the act of 'shop lifting' !!!

This is like the banana joke in an old tamil movie, it is over 157 days and the USCIS now wants to go by processing times which mention july 3rd processing date, which is still late, but then they will say it is just one day over your receipt date.
If I were planning to use my EAD now or in the near future I would just cough up $380 and apply for a fresh EAD instead of chasing USCIS.
If it works, then it is money well spent compared to running back and forth to USCIS offices, calling them daily and all the painful aggravation involved.
I will gladly spend 380 instead of risking the possiblity of picking up Diabetes or Blood pressure due to stress.

EB3 was like that most of the time. If you go back to 1995 all of the categories were current. China had cut off dates as more chinese than Indians were coming. From there number of H1bs were increased gradually.From 1997 they put cutoff dates and by the time 1999 things got worsened and there were 4 year waiting time and Many people were leaving country because of 6 year Cap of H1b. 1999 first time h1b cap was reached and 40% of them were Indians. In 1999 and 2000 demand for IT was so high and unemployment was record low US economy was in internet Boom. So congress realized that they need to do something. So they increased H1b(for 3 years) and recapture of GC and also AC21 was done. After Dot com Bust everything changed and outsourcing was so much and Indians were using 60% of H1b and equal number of L1. Still Indian H1b and L1 are increasing as there are more Indian consulting companies than H1b Cap numbers. So it will become worse for EB3 as there are so many restrictions of Eb2 unless congress increases GC quota. But it is going to be tough for any immigration reform as economy is very bad and unemployment is increasing. But if there is CIR there is a good chance of recapture bill to pass with CIR. Otherwise AC 21 is only way to survive here for those who filed I485.It is going to be challenging for those who not filed I485 as they have to survive as well they need to maintain immigration status
i am getting frustrated to see the bulletin everymonth and it never moves.
people applied in 2006 got their GCs. one of collegue ROW got when applied in 2007.
dont know whom to blame. why cant they understand our problems.
r they least bothered.
