One of the posts said that this was for folks on 6th yr and who have PERM in process (Audit in atlanta/chicago). I do fall into this category but this notice (http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/premiumproc_factsheet_i140_061108.pdf) still confuses/concerns me.
My H1-B expires in 31 Dec'08. The way I understand this bulletin is that Nov 1st 2008, I can file for PPS. But if I get an answer by Nov 20, wouldn't that mean only 40 days to get my H1 extended for another 3 yrs. Too close and I guess my H1-extension should also be PPS. Considering holidays it would be so close to get things in place but $2000 for USCIS.
Let me know what you guys think of this.
Considering that this is the first day of this bulletin, I am sure there will be edits and scenarios that USCIS might have to add to the fact sheet. We should check if one of the attorneys can get on a conference call and give us a better idea.
Another question? If I apply I-140 after my LC approval (hope that comes soon, its been 7 months now), then can I apply for just PPS on Nov1st.

You can give your OPT A# but once you're assigned a permanent visa number, they'll give you a different number. Your OPT A# is just a temporary number.
I think you mean once you are assigned a permanent A# ! It is assigned before a visa number is assigned.
A number series starting with 1 (eg. for OPT) are temporary. Those starting with 9 are permanent.
USCIS has a regular A# consolidation unit as well as a column to check for more than one A# on their internal worksheet for I-485.
Bottom-line: give your OPT A# and they will take care of the rest. This is what I did and worked.

Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: Case received and file gathering dust waiting for visa number.
On MM DD, YYYY, we received this application and mailed you a document describing how we process it. But you do not need to bother. Our system is so screwed up that we did not know how many cases we had pending. We did not communicate with DOL and DOS properly; so we ended up causing the July Visa Bulletin fiasco, which actually screws up your case even more if you were not one of the lucky applicants to have actually obtained your GC. But your increased fees for EAD & AP renewals have afforded us new janitors, so we will try to keep your files dust free.
P.S : If you are an advanced degree holder born in India. Hahahaha.

I think depends on how many ears old your priority date is? I mean if your priority date is letz say 5 years old and today you are joining / getting promote to manager then yes you can. Every one know as time goes any skilled person will get promote or get into higher level...
But there is a IF clouse here... the new company should willing to give a letter saying that you have same similar job and also YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES as specified in your exp'e letter....
Hope you got.. as long as company willing to give you exp'e letter with responsbilites then you are cover... in adition to that you got to have good Immigration attorney too...
Thanks...

Please correct me if I am wrong, but the Hammond Law Group (HLG) was hired by IV for its lobbying efforts, correct? What does HLG have to say about the fact that none of the provisions for legal immigrants went into the CIR? What's their take on the chances that favorable amendments for legal immigrants will make it?
Would be interesting to get their point of view...
Thanks,

i got an rfe too. I think its sent to both the attorney and the applicant. They said they mailed the RFE yesterday, so hopefully by early next week I should have it. I am guessing its employment verification due to me filing change-of-address. i know for sure that my ex-employer did not revoke 140.

Any word on this issue? Is somebody from core going to create a forum where they can post delayed updates?
Without access to donor forum , you have no clue *if* there has been any updates posted. You are assuming that there has been *some* updates posted and there possibly could be or there possibly is none. Whatever be the case, if there something for which ground level volunteers will be required, it will definitely get posted on open forums. If it is a strategic thinking/planning, I doubt still if it will be posted on the donor forum as such things need to be kept to a close group of people until you are ready for implementation. Disclosing this earlier will not work in favor of such strategic planning.
And of course, if there is a new bill passed or others, it will be everywhere in media - you may just know it when it gets passed rather than a couple of hours/days/weeks early.
If you believe in the cause of IV and I'm assuming that you do since you are here - I'd say go ahead and support it in all possible ways and dont worry too much about donor forums. Give or take 3 months plus a month , it will lose its charm.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Homeland Security is giving notice that it proposes to consolidate
three legacy record systems: Justice/INS-013 INS Computer Linked
Application Information Management System (CLAIMS) (67 FR 64132 October 17, 2002), Justice/INS-031 Redesigned Naturalization Application Casework System (RNACS) (67 FR 20996 April 29, 2002), and Justice/INS-033 I-551 Renewal Program Temporary Sticker Issuance I-90 Manifest System (SIIMS) (66 FR 6673 January 22, 2001) into one Department of Homeland Security/United States Citizenship and Immigration Services system of records notice titled, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services Benefits Information System. Categories of individuals, categories of records, and the routine uses of these legacy system of records notices have been consolidated and updated to better reflect the Department's immigration petition and application information record systems. This system will be included in the Department's inventory of record systems.
DATES: Written comments must be submitted on or before October 29,
2008. This new system will be effective October 29, 2008.

Get a labor attorney, send a letter of claim to the employer, and request action within 30 days. If no response and amount is under $5000 then go to small claims court, otherwise file a grievance with your state's labor department.
Thanks for the response.
The amount is approx $7000 and after deductions it will be just under $5000...can anybody suggest some good lawyer and what will be the charges...anybody else faced same issue in past....

The 800K pending 485s include people who have filed multiple 485s.
Cases like
1) Spouses filing thier own as well as dependant.
2) More then one primary filing.
So i guess there are about 100K duplicate and invalid applications.
In a way our community contributes to our own downfall...
Processing will also be delayed by people filing unnecessary Service requests for FP & AP etc., even when there is no use in near term just to be on par with everyone else.

I am trying to draft a letter that specifically addresses the above 2 concerns in the PACE bill. Not including current PhD graduates in it will delay any potential benefits from this part of the bill on retrogression by 5-8 years, which is when new PhD graduates joining on F4 will graduate (the current PhD candidates will otherwise use up EB1 and EB2 numbers through their employers.)
Excluding life sciences again would reduce the benefit on retrogression by ~60% than otherwise, bcos > 60% international PhD students (may be closer to 80%) are in the biological sciences (most students in other fields try to do a Masters and then look for a job.)
I would welcome if IV could publicize this aspect of the PACE bill and the need to amend it.

True. Best possible window of action may be immediately after a Democratic victory in 08. Probably will take another Clinton to undo what the first Clinton wrought with 245(i).
2 consecutive victories may make Demoractic party more confident and may be more willing to pass some GC reform. As of now with so much in
stake and getting power after more than 10 years they are more cautious.
Example: Nancy wants to take up the Bush immigration agenda only if he manages 70 GOP votes as they dont want to be branded as amnesty party
in 2008. As of now things are going in their war because of the mess in iraq
resulting is massive independent voters more inclined towards DNC.
DNC had good chance to take over WH, Senate , Congress. If the DNC primaries elect a decent guy like John Edwards ( H Clinton and Obama
wont make it at national level )

The Senate and the house may be passing the tax refund bill soon (due to slowing economy). There is lot of pressure on the government to act soon.
Can we get them to attach atleast one of our provisions with these bills - the most important and non controversial being recapture of unused visa numbers.
Just a suggestion................I know there is no dearth of suggestions.
We should definitely try (in addition to writing letters).
Can we get some more information about this bill? Who are the key players supporting/pushing it, who/how do we contact to try and push some of these reforms?

My feeling is that there wont be any new bills for years sometimes. Both house and senate are deeply divided on the immigration issues. All of them want reform. But nobody can agree on any proposals being put forward to.
Most of them want 11 million illegal immigrants here for their contributions. Most of them dont want 11 million illegal immigrants when they look at what they have to pay for their contributions.
When taking into account of all of these I feel like people will argue for sometime and then will become happy with whats left. The 11 million will stay as illegal for some more years. And the legal immigrants will wait in the line for their rest of the life.
