PAPPU,
I think we all understand we are in this together. No doubt.
A single post from CORE IV can make a huge difference to herd the cattle (including myself) here. For Instance, AILA letter asking for H1B and EB relief today.
I had posted a modified version of their letter in our forum in which I had deleted asking for raise in H1 and retained only EB part. IF IV core thinks
this is a good (or a bad ) idea and suggests what to do, our members will be energized.
For my part, I have added my personal story, added the EB relief part of AILA letter and emailed two senators and one congressman in my state.
Also, the same letters signed are ready in an envelope to be snail mailed.
So, IV core, from time to time, when there is a campaign by AILA and other organizations which could help us, please suggest how you would like us to proceed.I am not trying to create more work for you, but as a member, I think it would benefit all of us.
Thanks.

Your idea is good and I would encourage you to go ahead and send such letters to lawmakers. Any effort that is in line with IV's agenda and helps us in any way will be helpful to all of us. IV endorsed efforts are listed in action alerts page. If you choose to go and meet the lawmakers we have put together all information for this purpose
http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=53&Itemid=36
as a policy we are only focussed on issues faced by high-skilled legal immigrants waiting in line for their greencards.
When the session starts I am sure based on where the issues are going and after consultation with QGA and within core team there maybe some action alerts that involves contacting lawmakers.
Your efforts sending letters to lawmakers will certainly help us in raising awareness and preparing groundwork for coming months.

I had info pass appointment today in Newark they asked my
Info pass appointment letter
I-485 approval letter
Passports
I told them it�s almost one a month, I didn�t get my card yet. Then they gave me a token number and when my turn came. I met the USCIS officer he wasn�t much help at all. he just gave me 551 stamp for 1yr and when I asked him about biometric he said last year I took in Oct-07 its good till next month and I don�t need it.
I was expecting 551 stamp look like h1 visa stamp, but it�s just an ordinary stamp.
After coming home I called USCIS asked them about the card. She told me that card was sent out for production today and I should get it within 1 week to 30 days. Because it was sent out today that�s the reason I didn�t get the email update
Approved on 8-12-08
As I discussed earlier in this thread, Mine are the same dates as yours and two minutes ago I got the email of Card Production Ordered. It's been more than a month I got the Approval Notice. It seems atlast they uploaded my and my wife's Biometrics from CSC.
I think my call to IO paid off. After trying couple of times I got in touch with a decent IO for 3rd time. She said that Biometrics are missing and she will upload them from CSC. Three days after the call I got this message.

I don't think we are wasting energy/time by identifying gaps and answering questions to folks who want to know more about what exactly are we talking about here. Moving on and gaining more and more support etc., all these things need to be done in parallel.
Wanting to know more and talking trash/dumb - 2 different things.
Yes we are here to clarify for the former. For the later, is what my original comment was.
Also like i mentioned before, did we do some analysis on the links MadhuVJ sent few days ago?. I will be calling few lawyers today and keep you all posted

Friends,
For all those who are from India or believe in the Hindu gods and are ready to offer a prayer for Mehul.
Here is a link --> http://www.geocities.com/siddhaashram/Mahamrityunjaya.htm
Read it about 108 times on his behalf preferrably on Monday or you can do it 11 times until December 8th as this is an auspicious month for Lord Shiva.
Good luck Mehul. I also sent you a PM.

Well, its ones own point of view. My point of view is, a bird in hand is better than two in the bush. Worst case, they'll revoke ur 485 but cannot deny u re-entry to the US based on ur H1B. But if u r on EAD, I'm not sure. Once u r back in the US, u can always dispute the denial by canceling ur Canadian PR and submitting the canceled documents alongwith ur dispute as proof which should definitely put ur GC application back in the reckoning. Again, the question is, is it worth taking the risk? Well, it is...because u didn't get ur Canadian PR just by sitting at home. U did the Finger Printing, U did the Indian PC, U took the english test, U did the medicals, spent so much of ur time, money and energy in the process. Now, by just foregoing all those efforts do u wanna have 100% hopes that ur GC wont be rejected and lose out on ur Canadian option as well? Think about it.
I dont have H1B stamp and i have already used AP, what if they revoke my 485 and ask me to go for stamping and i get stuck for month to receive clearance, i dont know any one in canada and staying in hotel and waiting for clearance could cause me 1000s of $ , not to say, i will not get my pay because my employer didnt do my canadian PR.
I agree, i did spend a lot fo money doing canadian PR process, i did hire a lawyer to do all these and cost me $5000+ but I guess its not worth taking the risk and losing all my savings, I think this is called destiny, being so close to something still not able to get that, meaning it was not meant for me....

Desi3933 - Thank you for sharing this link. Now I totally believe it.
As promised before, now after looking at DOL web site, I will shut up.
Kumar -
You are welcome. I am glad to be of help.
There was a case U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR vs. Ken Technologies, Inc. That dealt with issues of benching and when employer is liable to start paying.
Personally, I don't want you to "shut up". Disagreement is part of healthy discussion. But I felt your post should have been little more polite than this post.
Where is it written???? 30 day rule?????? SHOW ME ...................................
STOP THIS NON-SENSE.......

None of this damn crap is fair. There are 3 lines in the green card queue. 1) Labor/PERM line, further subdivided on the basis of BEC, PERM, Employer willingness, exempt(NIW) etc. 2) the I-140 Line and 3) the I-485 line. These lines each have inconsistent patterns depending upon the winds of the day, a few years ago, LC/BEC lines were long, employers were less willing to sponsor green cards, and there was no I-140 PP processing, now all of a sudden PERM is there, PP of 140 came into being, and 485 became an eternal wait and country quotas came into being. For those that got screwed with BECs then PP 140 got removed when they were ready to file and now PD retrogressed into the stone age, it sure would seem like non sense for the guy who got PERM in 2 weeks, then PP 140 in 10 days and filed 485 in he July fiasco. Nevertheless you are only speaking in terms of degrees of getting screwed, since all are being done so by an unpredictable and unreliable system.
None of this damn crap is fair, we all know it. The only fair thing is for this country to decide who it wants and needs and sort them out ASAP. A wait of 2yrs, 5yrs or 10 yrs is immaterial, all of the above are ridiculous in EB immigration, degrees of unfairness is splitting hairs if you ask me. Up to 2 yrs is understandable, but beyond that implies a broken system which we need to lobby to fix. If we can all agree on that then, we have a platform to move forward with, otherwise we will get nowhere. When you average out the way most immigrants came to this land....................all of us are way more contributing and deserving, lets try to remind people of that as well as our future potential.

I gues it depends on who you talk to.
Thank you very much!
We're anxiously waiting for the receipt notice in the mail...
