You are the first guy who wrote a sensible post regarding CIR. Most if not all people here are delusional when it comes to CIR. I don’t trust Obama and Durbin to do any justice for Eb immigrants. The democrats agenda was always the illegals, as far as we EB are concerned they would prefer that we just get kicked out through endless RFE harassment from USCIS. The fact is republicans don’t like non whites to immigrate to US and the democrats are color blind to most extent but they are class conscious, they like illegals and poor people to immigrate to US because they can control them whereas they cannot control and herd the EB immigrants. So when the negotiations for CIR start Republicans will oppose any immigration so the democrats will strike a bargain with the republicans where they will ask for amnesty for illegals and in return they will happily throw the EB community under the bus by saying they are "reforming" the US immigration system by introducing a points based system where even existing applicants like the EB folks who have been in US for the last 10+ years have to re apply in points based nonsense system. Before people get angry ask yourself this question
1. Was there a visa recapture in the last CIR (don’t confuse with the first CIR which was passed by Arlen Specter which was the best CIR, it had visa recapture, it had STEM exemption)
2. Did it have Stem exemption i.e. exempt people who earned a Master and PHD from American universities from yearly green card quota?
3. Did it eliminate country quota.
4. Did it at least give an amnesty\interim type green card deal to honest legal EB folks like they gave to illegals?
The unfortunate answer to all those is a "NO" and this was when the president was Bush a republican, now you have Obama as the president and Durbin as his right man in senate. Does anybody really expect Justice for EB from these two?
Having said this I am not saying lose hope and pack up your bags. We will all have to fight for our cause but don’t have unrealistic expectations from CIR. Our best bet is a non cir piece meal bill visa recapture bill that addresses EB issues seperate from CIR, it is difficult to get such a bill passed but the chances for such a bill are better then Obama-durbin cir
And yes. CIR....NO BODY knows the final form in which it will pass and what impact would it have on legal EB immigration....no way to tell. I have no basis to say this but this is just my personal opinion: For all of us on this forum going through immigration process; our best bet is to get something before CIR actually passes and comes in to the play....I do not have good feeling about CIR.

usage of spill over must be based on demand estimates and cannot be an exact science.
removal of ROW spill-over must be in anticipation of the dam burst expected when the BECS finally cross pass the april 30 PDs ( ROW being a big majority of these applications).
We need to look at what the BECs are doing and where they are wrt apr 2001 apps. I believe they are almost past it or in the thick of it. there would be a 3-4 month lag since a lot of these guys are going through recruitment.
That will tell us whether we are seeing the worst or if it can get worse.

Hi
Today I got a call from an officer in "immigration and customs enforcement" asking for an appointment to visit my residence for checing my immigration status.
I am on H1B visa.
I would appreciate if someone could give any sort of information related to calling for a home visit.
Thanks
Immigration office can come to your home to check on you if your application is family based, like spouse living together or not. But since you are on H1B, I don't know why would they come to your home. They should check with ur employer and do the verification.
This is just my opinion.

Can you vote as a GC applicant or even a permanent resident? NO
You would think you could influence the Americans to support your cause and vote accordingly in the elections. FORGET IT!! Let alone the 2nd, 3rd, 4th.......17th generation American citizens, even the recently naturalized immigrants don't give a crap about us immigrants. The media and the politicians just have a field time with the immigrants (both legal and illegal) and some ignorant and dumb Americans (who don't usually vote) who get easily carried away by the emotions played both for and against immigration.
The serious voters (this has been established by several polls) however, are quite aware that immigrants are not given relief and naturalized overnight and are obviously confident that it could take around 20 years for any immigrant to get naturalized. The issues for these serious voters are: Iraq war, economy (the dwindling housing market?), globalization, gay marriage, abortion, and imports from China.
I wish good luck for IV and all those participating at the DC rally. NO, I can't make it, I am sorry.
Ok..., but can you tell me how they are approving cses for PD EB3'2003 or Any EB3 cases daily, when EB3 is 'U', do you have answer for this.
Since ther is plenty of approval going on everyday.
They are not following any PD for the last 3-months approval, I don't believe any rule they have.Now they are already under pressure , and the pressure started already.They have to clean up.I don't think they will wait untill next year June, since Election is on Sept'2008.

Before I approach Ombudsman is it wise to get any sort of clearence or green signal from your lawyer ? Can you approach them directly without a lawyer ?
Thanks
I think the DHS-7001 form needs to be signed by the HR of your company.So I guess your company/lawyer will need to be involved.

So their punishment is getting to live on an island in the south pacific? Sounds more like a reward... :D
Great news. What will be greater is that not only these "students", but the people who employ them, the people who run the "university", the ones who gave accreditation to this "university" should be all loaded in a ship and dropped-off on a hitherto uninhabited island in the south pacific, with a live stream of their life made available post drop-off.
They can all happily screw each other on the island.
BTW, let one of the right wing radio shows get a hold of this news, we will not hear the end of this. The next logical step will be Steve King professing an end to F1 visas.

"Long Journey. Finally GC
by J2GC
Hi Guys,
After a long journey of more than Sixteen years in this country, I finally received my GC.
In short, I came in 1993 on J-1 for my training which took six years, followed by one year on O-1 visa and then J-1 waiver for three and half years in underserved area. Then applied for labor certification in Oct, 2003 EB2, through university, which was approved and then retrogressed. Applied Schedule IIA, approved but also got retrogressed. Got AILA liaison and Senetor involved.
Applied for EB1 and NIW in July 2008.
My lawyer was very much involved in the whole process, was very helpful at every step, and wrote letters to USCIS.
Finally, GC came in April, 2009 and received the cards one week later. My PD Oct 2003.
During these time, I actually had no problmes at my job or my my wife's job. Brought a house four years ago.
The main problems were:
Daughter and son could not apply to state colleges/ medical colleges. (daughter going to med school next month)
Got stuck in India for renew of H-1 for 2 months!!! (worst time of my life, with my wife and kids in US) I tied every thing from writing letters to calling Ambasador. Not effective.
Could not go to certain occasions, like death of very close family members, weddings etc.
However, I kept my cool and prayed and got lot of support from Immigration voice.
As a small token of appreciation, I am donating $500 .(and will keep on supporting)
We all are going to get GC, some sooner some later. Just keep on doing you job.
Thanks you all for all the information and support.

I think what he is saying demands attention by the lawyers and core members.Thing is we never know what is going on until there is some transparency. The law many times is open to suit ones needs and I suspect DOS may be doing that.

Revocation of Approved Labor Certifications
The DOL Perm rule, at 20 CFR 656.32 provides for the revocation of approved labor certifications by DOL if a subsequent finding is made that the certification was not justified. In such instances, DOL provides notice to the employer in the form of a Notice of Intent to Revoke an approved labor certification that contains a detailed statement of the grounds for the revocation and the time period allowed for the employer's rebuttal. The employer may submit evidence in rebuttal within 30 days of receipt of the notice. If rebuttal evidence is not filed by the employer, the Notice of Intent to Revoke becomes the final decision of the Secretary. If the employer files rebuttal evidence and DOL determines the certification should nonetheless be revoked, the employer may file an appeal under 20 CFR 656.26 within 30 days of the date of the adverse determination. If the labor certification is revoked, DOL will also send a copy of the notification to USCIS and the Department of State.

I applied EB3 I40 on 05/18/2007 and got approved on 05/23/2007
Considering the scenario is my I140 invalid?
Since your I140 filed after 15th of May 2007, you have to re apply through the new point system.

Divorce in India takes a minimum 1 year to adjudicate if you were married less than 1 year. Otherwise, it is up to the discretion of the judge. Courts in India require a 'cooling period', with 'counseling / mediation'. Latter is basically a a sham.
That said, as a trained mediator, and negotiator, I would say ... a win-win outcome is always better for all parties. What happens to be 'win-win' is of course subjective.
Good luck in whatever you do! Trust me, things always work out well in the end.
It is very complicated to get divorce in India, if your wife don't file with you. Divorces are valid in India when there is no fraud and agreed by both the parties.

Thanks for the reply...
Initially I too got the same doubt that it could be a prank from my friend. But the name of the person who called me matches with the name of the person who visited my employer's office around 2 months back. After I got a call from ICE officer, I notified the same to my employer and explained about the call.
Really donno what to do.... Even though the ICE officer took prior appointment for visiting me, should I still contact attorney?
Never heard of this before...are you by any chance employee of any of the companies named in H1B visa fraud last week?

Hopeful has a valid point when it comes to sending flowers to USCIS. I am not sure that will make any difference . Flowers will not change USCIS overnight but will get us some good media publicity .Yes when it comes to american or any other politics , money is an important factor and if you can hit money, all issues can be resolved. I wish India one day becomes such a prosperous country that immigration no longer is lucrative for Indians and none of our generations to come have to go through all this mess !!!!!!:D
