Personally this is what I think: we should ask Mr. Gotcher to help us on a pro bono basis as a favor. At the same time, let him know that we will collect contributions from willing members and all will go to him to cover his expenses. I suggest this for a couple of reasons. First, raising money can take time. And we don’t know how many are willing to contribute. We may be stuck here posting “come on guys we have $3k we need another $2k before anything gets done”. Also, I think a lot more people will be happy to put in their money when they see some actions and movements. This way work can get started soon.

I got the CPO email just now.. i'm not sure if it's because of the SR that my wife opened on Friday evening or it just happened without that.. but anyways it's a relief now.. i also see a lot of people getting cpo emails today.. btw, just curious, does the cpo stage come before "approved" status or after it?
now hope that i receive the card in time.. will post about its validity and start date once i receive it. (i'll be current for the month of September as my pd is july 06)
good luck to others who are waiting and hope that they get cpos soon
Dont worry,once you got CPO mails..normally you should receive the card in/after 5-10 business days..Hopefully with 2yr EAD..as you are not current this mnth right..keep hope!!

My wife and I will be travelling out of USA to our home country in the first week of August. My employer's attorney will be applying I-140 and I-485 for both of us before we leave the country. My attorney has said that we could travel out of country without jeopardizing the validity of I-485 application as long as it is recived by USCIS prior to leaving the country. Because of a large influx of I-485 applications, USCIS won't be able to issue the receipt notice immediately but will take weeks to issue the receipt nos. However, when they issue the recipt nos, they will use the application receipt date as the date when the application was physically received by them (the day when Fedex or UPS...courier service delivers the applications to them).
We will have to go to US consulate for H1B/H4 stamping and I am a little concerned if we would be able to get VISA stamping. I am in the 8th year of H1B extension? Both of us have I-797 approval notice for H1B/H4 valid until 2008. Has anyone travelled out of country and got the VISA stamps on the passport without any issues?
My attorney says there won't be any problems.
Looking forward to your inputs.

"It has also come to my attention that USCIS began returning visa numbers to the State Department as early as Thursday, July 5, 2007, due to their inability to review applications effectively."[/SIZE]
http://lofgren.house.gov/PRArticle.aspx?NewsID=1810
So is it possible that the following was USCIS' plan all along in a bid to (1) force applicants to pay the higher fees and (2) reduce the number of applications they would receive. So let's try and see where USCIS or DOS acually broke the law. BTW, the following is pure speculation on my part.
1. DOS makes all categories current in the visa bulletin dated June 12.
2. This screws up USCIS's plans. So they have to force the DOS to issue a revision before July 1st.
3. USCIS frantically starts requesting visa numbers. Even for 485s with pending FBI checks.
4. Come July 2nd, USCIS still hasn't used up all the 60,000 or so numbers, but still informs DOS that all visa numbers have been exhausted.
5. DOS publishes a revised visa bulletin dated July 02 where everthing becomes unavailable.
6. USCIS acts on DOS revised visa bulletin and decides to reject all I-485s filed on July 02 and beyond.
7. July 05 onwards, USCIS starts returning the numbers to DOS. This could be for applications that have pending FBI checks.
8. DOS now decides to use some caution before issuing August bulletin. They will probably not make all categories current, but will probably shift them by a few months based on June bulletin.
9. USCIS now gets all new applications with higher fees and a reduced number of applications.
Please add to this sequence of events if you think I missed anything.
IMHO, USCIS broke the law in #4. And DOS broke the law in #5 if it was aware that visa numbers were still being issued as of July 02.
Thanks,
Jayant

Teddy, IV team totally understand the need for predictions, it is a time consuming effort that some of you put in the thread to answer the needs of many IV members. Absolutely true and we appreciate your commitment and dedication. That being said, prediction alone is not the answer. Prediction along with advocacy gets the work done.
Predict all year round, and help the people needing the information to plan their life around, but when there is an opportunity to add to the efforts of prediction.....such as Advocacy, please make the best of it. It is frustrating to see that many members are simply satisfied at predicting, and are broadly indifferent to advocacy. As pappu mentioned earlier, it was advocacy that was instrumental in getting the data for all the calculations.........
I am flabbergasted when I hear members say that - I will be current in a month or two, so I am not interested in advocacy. They easily forget the long wait times they themselves encountered in the past and do nothing to help the people who still have endless wait times.....
If any of the IV team members are promoting advocacy over prediction (now), it is because, if done correctly, we could collectively solve the need for prediction for all immigrants residing in this country currently irrespective of their EB category!

Based on past experience i feel that people will cling to a false hope and make assumptions about getting their GC's. My primary concern is people will stop making efforts to push for recapture or any other relief. The spillover rules are such that EB3-I will not get any additional visas till 2012 (at the earliest). Who knows what the stituation will be then.
We should also be debating why the PD for Mexico EB3 is higher than India when they have more people in the queue before their PD. I would take the numbers with a grain of salt or at the least not forget the past... as someone said if we dont learn from our history, history will repeat itself.
Dear Chris_Rock, GC_Check, trueguy, 485Mbe4001 and others
Happy to see you debating healthy discussions. No flames. This is a mature discussion unlike recent past.
Yes, ONLY we EB3's need to be serious.
I agree that CIR is impossible till March 2011. If one sees Americaworker.org ads in TV, I do not think law makers will listen to us. EB2 is placed in queue nicely.
Let us debate decently and do not respond to people that start flames.
Thanks to all of you.

I am also struggling to get my GC. It is my 9th year in H1B visa. My intention is, atleast we can reduce the period for waiting to get the citizenship. It can also be considered as a good benefit for our community. Just my thoughts...

No immigration provisions with HR 2
http://www.immigration-law.com/
02/02/2007: Senate Passed H.R. 2 Without Immigration Reform Bills
* During the debate, the immigration reform bill introduced by Senator Kerry as Title VI was agreed to, but it appears that at the last minute the immigration reform bills were sliced off along with all other bills which are not related to the minimum wage in passing H.R. 2 at 5:00 p.m. by the Senate. We incorrectly reported the immigration bills were part of the H.R. 2 which the Senate passed yesterday. The final H.R. 2 bill passed by the Senate is expected to go to the Senate-House Conference committee.

In addition to calling the CHC members, We may be better off in getting support from individual law makers if we target each one individually ( Law makers who have been pro legal immigration ) If 10 members call such law makers it would help them make up their minds and show support for these bills

If you read closely, it appears like the 290,000 immigrant visas would be true for years from now on and for years 2001-2005 (the diffrence between current limit and this section). If that's the case and if that becomes a law, there is possibility there will be no backlog after that for some time...short time probably. Please correct me if I am wrongly reading this section. But for me, it appears it applies retroactively and will add the diffrence (150k a year) between years 2001-2005. If my calculation and understanding is correct, once this act becomes a law, the first year there would be 290k + 600k from years 2001-2005 ......I am not sure if my understanding is correct. I prey it is..
IV Core nothing has been passed as yet.. & they sure are better informed than us..even if it is passed by Senate, we still have a long way to go.. the Debate etc.. before this becomes an Act..

Here's a quick summary before the InfoPass recap:
EAD e-filed: May 27th
Receipt notices received: 1st week of June
FP done: June 19th
Card production ordered LUD: June 28th
Other soft LUDs: July 25th, July 27th
Still waiting...
InfoPass: This morning...07/28/08
Per the guy at the InfoPass counter, the FP report was received on July 24th (which probably explains the July 25th LUD). He said EAD will not be printed or sent out before FP check is complete. In 2007, they did not run FP checks to issue the first EAD after July fiasco.
So could this explain the delay that folks here are seeing? FP Code 2 was done for EAD, so not sure why this should take so long :mad: Maybe I am mistaken, but I thought that only FP Code 3 that's done for I-485 can take a long, long time. Can someone post info on EAD FP checks?
Update: Here's what I have after some quick research on USCIS biometrics:
http://www.immigrationportal.com/archive/index.php/t-191494.html
e-filed may 6
FP Done 4 June
Card Production Ordered July 11

Labor filed in Aug 2002, approved after 6 years in June 2007. Meanwhile, our son aged out in June 2004. Daughter turned 21 today, and her I-485 adjustment application is in the July 2 logjam.
The DREAM Act can be a solution for our son, but some of the versions were made applicable to only illegal immigrants. We have to be careful to read the details whenever the next version makes its headway in the Congress.
I honestly do not hold out much hope for the dream act giving any benefit to legal children, and also doubt it will pass anyway.
Lets see what we can achieve as a group, if we get enough people to agree to help us

Thank you.
Depends what you want to do in future :
I have canadian PR as well, qualified for citizenship 2 yrs back, never opted for one
I would trash the PR, i mean let it expire and you be on your way. Cdn PR doesnt gives much benefits unless you want to settle in Canada/ work there.
i personally think US GC has more benefits then any other

Note the letter is addressed to chertoff. So even if USCIS do not send all those documents, Chertoff will kick the butt of USCIS to "get the damn thing fixed" before it becomes a bigger issue.
btw just asked my attorney(from a premier firm)
"Is this rumour anywhere close to being true? If so how soon do you think a turnaround may possible come?"
Ans: close...maybe as soon as tmrow or friday.
