thanks for responding...any contradicting/second opinions? What is the exemption towards - both filing for 485 and processing of 485 too, right? Isn't it an exemption from the EB quota?

Eb3_Nepa,
You are quite mistaken if you think I am going to delete your post just because I disagree with you. One of the things that I love most about this country is the Bill of Rights and the First Amendment that protects free speech. I like the idea the everyone can voice their opinions as long as there are no physical threats or intimidation.
That being said, we run the risk of having a thread venting frustrations against illegals degenerate into an anti-Mexican thread. We have had a lot of publicity, and many reporters etc read our forum to get an idea of what we are about. They can very easily read one frustrated post from an otherwise reasonable member out of context and decide that we are a xenophobic group. I edited one comment from Santosh's post; and deleted a post of Bkam's. Bkam's post, frankly, was offensive.
As a side note, I have quite the same frustrations against the "perceived" better treatment that illegals get. If you look at our "Parity" memo where we found that undocumented workers can self-petition for green cards and we can't, I co-wrote it. But let us focus on the positives that we bring and move on.
Stucklabour, make no mistake. I totally respect the fact and the hard work done by the core group (urself included). I also respect the moderation aspect where, targetting any one particular community shud be removed at once. So to that effect i do agree with you removing some of the offensive looking posts.
However discussions about legals v/s illegals in the past have been simply removed by suggestions such as "they live in far worse conditions" and "do not denigrate any group". In my opinion when you say "denigrate" it is something to the effect of, "get rid of them all". Saying someone broke the law when they actually did, does not constitute "denigration" per se, & i really commend the fact that you did not delete my post. Thanks for the good job that you guys have been doing.

I got my FP done in Jan 2008 but we never got the FP for my wife. We put in a SR with USCIS customer service.
We did get a response about the delays, but it is taking more than 60 days to get a response.
It has been 5 months since that response came.
We called USCIS customer service and they suggested to go to the fingerprinting location, along with original I-485 receipt notice and the letter stating the delay and see if the IO would take the FP the same day.
Lets see ....

Folks
However, this one department called USCIS is literally toying with us for yrs now as if we are slaves or we are obligated to them. We dont want anyone to do us any favour. We need justice.
Friends - I have self respect and i wasn't born chanting Green Card. I AM going to face them, confront them, demand them to provide justice, if not I want them to REFUND every penny i have paid so far. If this "I AM" becomes "WE", half the battle won. TOGETHER WE STAND, VICTORY/JUSTICE FOR ALL. If you are still hesitant, you made a bad choice of choosing option 2. Please go back to option 1.
ITS ABOUT TIME.
Could you provide details on your POA (Plan Of Action) .. how are you going to go about facing them, confronting them, demanding justice? I'd be happy to pitch in.

EAD applied on Jun11th approved at TSC. Received cards yesterday.
To my surprise my EAD is valid for 2 years.
My PD is Nov 2004 EB2
I140 pending at TSC.
I thought 2 year EAD is only for cases that had approved 140. Is it not the case?

Is there any reason to send emails to 2 + 10 senators only? If recommended I can send to all senators later today or tomorrow.
Also i will reformat the template in Word and fax it to 12 senators.

Hi,
There are several restrictions/constraints for many ppl for not being able to devote time/money for the general cause. Let's not fret about the reasons. While it would help for all ppl to join forces that should not distract the group that is doing something about the issues.
And ppl on the sidelines - pls don't be a passive professional critique. However valuable your comments and ideas are they are useless without acting upon it - they are just like seeds sown in a barren land. The good work of the forum will continue without your presence. With your involvement we all can reach the goal that much more faster.
My Labor certification is actually filed in the state of IL. But i am on an assignment in MD till Sep 2010 (after filing for relevant amendments).
It's ~5 hrs drive for me to Baltimore/Washington-DC. So, coming every week for a meeting is not practical. I am extremely eager to support OUR cause given the commuting constraints. I have already written to our congress man here to bring to his notice the struggles of wannabee immigrants.
So, where do i sign up?
Harikris, I hear you. People are in different situations. I was not mad about moving to this country and for a long time, I preferred travelling instead. Then I reached a point where I preferred to be with my family and thought it is best if we move here and we filed for our GC at the same time. If it does not work out, I am entirely content moving back. Heck, even if it does work out, I might move back.
I am not crazy enough for my GC to spend all my waking hours trolling forums and calling people names. It is just not worth it. I do donate, the same way that I donate to the local zoo and botanical garden. I give them money to run something so that I and others may benefit from it. The people who run it are passionate about it and do it for themselves and others.
If things work out, everyone will benefit, the people who worked, and those who didn't, the people who donated and those who didn't. When India fought for its freedom, people donated money and time. I am ready to bet that less than 1% joined in the strugle. There were people who worked for the british government and there were people who went on with their lives. Everyone got freedom, the people who worked got recognized and remembered. That is life.
The ones who are desperate need others to pitch in to create a critical mass in terms of both money and numbers. I think this realization needs to sink in and insulting people into getting donations out of them is probably not a strategy that will work very well.
These forums are an excellent rallying point and I think more people being helpful and polite will go a long way.
Of course, I say all this with my leathery skin waiting to be called a useless idiot who writes bullshit.

Stop spreading wrong information desi!!
let me add my 2 cents here -
1. There is no rule that h1 status expires after 1 year of no use. The key word here is h1 status.
2. If the person is in us, then he/she 30 days to start working on h1 job else apply for change of status (or leave us and re-enter on some other visa).
3. If the person is entering us on h1 visa, then he/she has 60 days to start working on h1 job.
4. Within 30 days of start working, person should get his/her first paycheck.
5. By not working on h1 job, you are out of status since oct 1st. (there is no grace period for out status. However, out of status does not mean illegal presence as long as i-94 date is not expired or uscis has made the determination that you are out of status.
6. 3/10 year bar applies for illegal presence and not for out of status.
Good luck.

Agreed that H-1B has a fixed date. But from the employer standpoint, you're their "full-time, permanent" employee on H-1B, right?
Now you have come down from legal standpoint to employer standpoint! :D
The answer to your question is No.
Employer sponsors GC so that employee that is temporarily employed on H-1B can become permanently employed on GC job.
Again, you are mixing H-1B job with GC job.
Let me ask that question again (because you got confused last time)
Look at the I-140 application for GC (Page 2, Part 6, Question 5)
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-140.pdf
I wonder why uscis is asking "Is this a permanent position?", if according to you, "*no* job in this country is "permanent" (legally speaking)"
Did your attorney put No for this question for your I-140 app?
You still believe that no job is permanent. If so, all I can say, more power to you.
Have a good day!

@desi3933:
That's the easiest part to prove in case of self-employment. You can either just mention that on the EVL, or register your company with the county, or open an LLC. In the latter cases, they ask the nature of your business, and you can copy-paste that from your labor petition.
Where did you read that requirement? Assuming, again?
A self-employed business is always real.
A business plan can be a 1-page document where you can cut-paste your labor job description. Costs and revenues should be easy to project. Also, in a self-employed business, there can be only one employee. You can also incorporate yourself.
Why do you need funding in a one-person company? Also, the revenues could be *projected*, and you could say that on your business plan and EVL...
http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/AC21Intrm122705.pdf
Question 8. Can an alien port to self-employment under INA �204(j)?
Answer: Yes, as long as the requirements are met. First, the key is whether the employment is in a "same or similar" occupational classification as the job for which the original I-140 petition was filed. Second, it may be appropriate to confirm that the new employer and the job offer are legitimate through an RFE to the adjustment applicant for relevant information about these issues. ......
what does this mean?
confirm that the new employer and the job offer are legitimate
legitimate means bonafide. Isn't it?
For both, new employer and new job offer.

Kodi,
Was the FP for I-485?
I am quite sure FP is not requested for paper based filing. FP for you is misleading.
GCCovet
In the letter it mentioned I-485. I can't figure out what's going on. Its over 90 days since I filed everything and I thought usually you receive EAD within 90 days.
I was happy as I thought I'll be receive EAD soon since I did FP. Oh Well. I'm currently on H4 and have been out of work since last Dec and its becoming very hard living on one salary.
