Its not a case of inter filing where people are using other peoples priority date. Thats long gone. This is using ones own earlier I-140 priority date. Its not an easy process. It involves redoing everything. It involves time. It involves losing a lot of money. And we too have waited in the line. Some people are fortunate to apply in EB2 and some have to do it in EB3. Then as years go by they become eligible to apply in EB2.(When they are promoted to be manager, they are eligible to apply in EB2 quota) So that does not mean they now should go and stand behind the queue. So be kind. Everyone is in the queue. And I am working for a reputed company and not like what you have described. I was frustrated like you when USCIS did many things like opening up the queue for EB3 and recently EB2. People who applied for Green Cards after me have got it. Many even have become citizens.
Put efforts to better the whole process..

So where did you learn your English? Do you even know how to read sentences? I suggest you learn how to join words and make sense of what is being said. Then and only then comment on what is being posted.
Also, Before you call others stupid, make an assessment of your own stupidity.
If you want to argue, then argue how is the removal of quota limits fair for ROW applicants. Don't throw out unrelated arguments.
sorry man, my hinglish is vrey vrey vrey poor. so plaese bear wtih me.
Lets not argue, lets discuss, maybe I could agree with your views. So heer it goes, how is quota limits fair to anybody? I thought we are all equals, unless you think you are challenged in anyways - physically or otherwise, in that case I agree, you are 100% right, there must be a special quota for you. For all others who consider themselves to be equal shareholders to the free society, isn't preferential treatment for any set of people "wrong" and "unfair"? Just asking? I mean are we not equals, if yes, then there should be no quota for any country, if no and you think you are superior, which maybe true, then I should get preferential treatment, if no, and you think you are inferior or otherwise challenged in anyways, well, in that case yes, you sure should be treat better than others.... you know....
So what do you think you are - equal? inferior? or superior? I mean it has go to be one of those, right?

I don't think it is correct. There is no requirement in H1B to look for American first, if nobody found then sponsor for H1B. It is there in GC process for labor market check. H1B law is not having tougher provisions to not to misuse it. So, thats that reason, some are misusing. Its like Labor substitution. Previously, there is no law that says you shouldn't substitute labor, but now we have it. It is about changing H1B law to reduce fraud.
But as someone said, increasing H1B fees is not the way of controlling fraud. They should decrease the fees back to $360, just application fee, but correct the H1B law so that only people really need it will get the visas.
The intent of the H1B program is not to bring people in the country in "Anticipatory mode" as you put it. The intent of the H1B program had always been for US employers to hire foreign skilled workers "On-Demand" when no american is willing, qualified or able to do the said job. Prior to 1999, the visa cap was 65000/yr WITHOUT the extra master's degree cap we have now, and still visas were never totally used up for any year, certainly not on the first day. It is only after the advent of the IT consulting companies hoarding visas in "anticipation" of future jobs that the problems started. Without any restrictions on this kind of abuse, no amount of H1 visa increase would be sufficient. They are talking of raising visas to 130,000 right? Based on the FY 2008 applications, those visas would be used up in TWO DAYS!
IMHO, the intent of the H1B program is equally important than just loopholes (or not) in the letter of the law.

I have some personal experience in this thing. In my case it was 750K, nevertheless a large some.
Question for you: Were there any injuries in the accident?
Hi Gurus,
I need an advice from you.
The situation:
-- Involved in a collision few months back. As I had rear ended the vehicle, as per the investigation, it was found it was my fault(80% mine - 20% others)
-- Now after more than 18 months, I get a law suit for 3.25 million dollars(. This was served against ppl who were involved. Right now my I have my EAD and AP and maintaining H1 status.
So what are my options now?
1. Check with attorney and start defending..?
2. pack the bags and go back to my country ? If so, will there be any issues in coming back again, say after 3,4 years?
3. What about my GC?
Any help would be greatly appreciated and I guess it would be a biggest decision of my life ..
Thx,
PD is Nov 2006.

PD provides twoway door, one for new people to apply and other for USCIS to approve pending cases. Having more applications pending (out of PD range) will not help USCIS to approve cases, they need to move the PD forward for more applications to become current and for them to approve some of them.
Most of the people who rushed into July-Aug 2007 where EB3 or EB2 India/China. Since EB3 is closed for the year they have to move the number of EB2 India/China to pick those applciations.
well yeahhhh ... anyways, we will definitely have the numbers moving from now on EB2 and it may retrogress but not beyond April 2004 :)
anyone who opted for CP between april 2004 and june 2006 are the lucky ones if they can get visa appointments ... true ?

Let us try to keep the question atleast in the top10 until the poll closes. This is a very good chance to bring our issue to a wide audience.
I think the link provided here take to the page where questions are not sorted by either popularity or most recent ( which I assumed initially). I might be wrong.

2. To report the number of cases worked upon
3. To keep track of the applicants as when its refiled, it should have yes for "Did you ever apply adjustment of status before". If its "No", its a lie and its rejected again.
If they have to log this information then they may encash the cheque for this work. :eek: :eek:

1) having gc is a privilege not a right.
If you bring in a worker with a path to citizenship and make the laws so ambiguous that even after 10 years he/she does not know when to reach the destination in that path is a violation of basic human rights.
2) US has every right to choose whom they want to have in their country.
The choice kind of goes back and forth. Getting H1b - yes You can work...Delaying/Rejecting GC...No can't work. It may be rejected without even the fault of the individual. Path to citizenship is an eyewash...there is not path to citizenship for a foreign worker at individual level.
4) Considering the number of fraud's committed by Indian ....
Punish the guilty and do not stereotype. USCIS report says only 20% of H1b is bad.
5) We all have best back up....Saare Jahan Se Achha....
This might come as a surprise to some of you, but someone needs to say it out loud. GET A LIFE FOLKS!!!! there is more to life then EB, GC and all. it seem all we desi's can think of is how to get a green card so we can live here with peace and never have to worry bout getting laid off or anything.
Few points:
1) having gc is a privilege not a right.
2) US has every right to choose whom they want to have in their country.
3) If getting PR or citizenship of a western country is the goal there are many countries which have a fair point based system.
4) Considering the number of fraud's committed by Indian body shoppers and people who use them, i am not surprised USCIS is extra careful when it comes to Indian applications. Anyone who got his wife with no exp with software dev an h1b visa from some cheat in Jersey knows what i am talking bout . My freind got his wife an H1 after showing she knew software testing even though her major was fine arts and all she was good at was web surfing :)
5) have a back up. i came here in 2001 as student and have seen it all. I am on h1b since 2004. i knew we have too many people whose sole aim in life is a American GC. to avoid becoming one of those who check processing dates first thing in morning, i applied for Canadian PR, got it in 8 months and i am not even gonna bother applying for labor, i-140 and all those precious life controlling documents.
Wake up friends, you have options. Don't let your life depend on you application status.

Guys!!!
Had it been the year like 1999 with all the efforts from IV, I am defintely sure the CIR reforms would have passed by now.
Issue here is the economy, recession looming large on our face, unemployment level rising, and no one knows whats going to happen in the next two-three years becuase of credit crisis and oil price going above the roof. If this continues for another year, we will be in deep s***.
Thats why no will dare to increase the workforce by issuing more grren cards. Atleast we should feel happy that they havent stopped issuing the cards.
I know its painful to be waiting for years to get a GC. But you do not know how green that card will stay if the current financial crisis continues for 2-3 years.
Fact is, this country is going thru a difficult period of uncertainty. Because of election year rhetoric, no one is going to accept it. But clearly, its not in their interest to get more workforce into this country. They know we have been waiting, and will continue to wait. Look at 2002/2003/2004, when they issued only 20K visas for the entire year. So just hope that things will get bright for this country soon else, we are in for an another hell ride.
Why they are bringing the people on the Lottery. They give 50,000 green cards each year thru lottery system. 50,000 and inlcuding dependents atleast 2 = 150,000 people come. In addition this they give asylum to around 200,000-500,000 people. They come here and start from scratch.
Most of H1B(s) are working here and estabished. If USCIS gives green card to H1B(s), it will not create any problem to the labor market. Infact it will give boost up to economy because people who get GC, they will start buying houses, luxary items and other investment to this country.

Hi All
I have been following this thread for the last few days and wanted to share some info. Hoping it would be useful.
I entered the country in Jan 08 using the AP while I was still working for my GC sponsoring employer. Then in June 08 I joined another employer by transferring my H1B to the new employer. I did have the option of using EAD but I wasn't sure if the renewal will come before the expiry of current EAD. So decided to transfer H1 and my new employer graciously agreed to it.
We did a premium transfer so got the approval in 2 weeks. Money does wonders (Almost like the proverbial paper weight with files). I confirm that the I94# number on I797 approval notice is same as the I94# number I got when entering the country in Jan 08.
So this should be a good news for folks who are trying to do the same. I am in a different boat right now. I have to travel to India this November. I plan to return using AP. But now my employer is different from my GC sponsoring employer. Another issue is that I am going only for two weeks while my wife will be in India till Mid Jan. So we will enter US separately using AP. Please share your thoughts if you have been in this situation.
Does your new I-94 (after H1 transfer) shows H1B or parolee? If you have time get H1B visa based on your recent H1B approval notice and enter on that. Otherwise you can very well enter on AP, though you work for different employer. As long as 485 is pending and if you have valid AP in hand, admission will not be an issue. Keep your H1B approval notice and AC21 letter (if you have it) in hand, in case if they dig you more.

Hello:
The company I am working with doing business for 40 years (less than 40 employee) and as per my lawyer, financially very good. I hired the lawyer and employer directly gave him financial docs. I am only one person with H-1 in this company's history and working for 4 years. Got labor approval on PERM EB2 (MS+1) and did concurrent filing with I-140 premium processing.
I received RFE regarding company's ability to pay. We sent tax files for FY 2005 (contains oct '05 to Oct '06) for being PD of Nov '06 and W2 for 2006 which showed 6k more than offered wage. Company started paying me offered wage one week after the PD and offered wage is 3k more than prevailing wage. RFE specified to show ability to pay by showing 2006 tax return or audited financial statement by 12 weeks. Any of this will not work as tax file will be prepred on Nov '07 for FY 2006 and audited finan. stat. costs a lot of money. My company has no clue and just planning to write a letter that they will not able to provide before Nov 07 and already submitted tax file upto Oct 06 which could be enough to find the financial status. They talk to their CPA and he advised to do so.
I am really not very fimilar with all these issues. What should I do as company is not able to provide above 2 things that USCIS asked for? Can I send my paychecks even started getting paid offered wage after one week?
Appreciate you feedback. Thanks,

thanks for explaining. my suggestion then is to go to school on F1 (maybe ?) and get a degree that can help him/her get a job that qualifies under H1b.
Our main goal to solve the retrogression problem.
Well then by that logic the US Govt can turn around and tell all of us the same thing right? This is our processing time, take it or go elsewhere :)
Also converting to an f1 has SERIOUS implications. For starters you have to shell out a LOT of money for a full time degree. Secondly in some cases the person may STILL not be eligible to apply for an H1 coz that job profile.
Lastly I did not mean we contact Human rights activists for the same.

I believe after this new fees, we might have to pay one more time for the renewal and after that we never have to pay for any renewals. So it will not be a factor any more.
