I think you are right. I don't think the exacutive privilege would apply here. What we have here is clearly a big mess created by imcompetence of USCIS and congress has the oversight power over government agencies to make sure that they are functioning properly and according to law. I would love to see USCIS get nailed for this mess. They have gotten away with pretty much anyting in republican congress.
They didnt provide docs for the US attorney firings because Bush cited "Executive privilege" ... there is no such "privilege" in this case .... Bush hopefully had nothing to do with the DOS/USCIS screwup :)

Admins or mods must change the title of the thread. This is going to disappoint a lot of our friends in this forum.
Well this thread has a good begining and then some suspence and then a dose of harsh reality.
Isnt that the story of some of us who came to US with a rosy picture in our mind and worked hard and the immigration system in the country gave us heartaches and headaches!!
It also tells our members how difficult getting a law passed is. We all need to work harder and harder to get anything done. We need everyone's full support in order to achieve our goals.
Good night!!

Hi folks, just as predicted, my email thread to select contacts resulted in one outright racist response. i dont want this group to get distracted or distressed if you too get such responses. take a look at the original note below and my response. remain brave. remain strong. this is a LEGAL immigration process in the US economic interest too.
hopefully people will begin to realize that anti-legal-immigration is just a facade for deep rooted racism.
Best.
A SELF AVOWED RACIST RESPONSE from A PERSONAL CONTACT
I have to let you know that not only will I not support this bill, but I am vehemently against the legal immigration of workers that are originally brought here to usurp positions that would have otherwise been held by skilled Americans. I agree that this is a racist and exclusionary position, but I also know many people who can no longer get work at the level they deserve due to the displacement they have experienced as a result of this foreign worker influx.
Please remove me from any future posts regarding this or related issues.
MY RESPONSE
i know how the native americans must have felt when the pilgrims landed... oh that darned foreign influx.
i will not dignify your self avowed racism with the erudition of economics, capitalism, innovation, globalization, human rights or the rich history of the united states as a melting pot of cultures ... all of which are underpinning factors that are in the long term US economic interests in high skilled LEGAL immigration. of course, these tend to be conveniently ignored on the altar of superficial sentiment, myopic protectionism and deep-rooted xenophobia.
it would be best that we not be on each others' personal contacts or have any future interaction at all.

FYI we never use the terms like EB2 or EB3 in our meetings with lawmakers.
Let me tell one example:
If 2 of our kids are sick , we'll concentrate on both of them for their recovery.If one gets recovered we'll concentrate more on other kid.Now EB2 is in good shape and EB3 is not , now it's time to concentrate more on EB3.

Hello Gurus,
I have a question as follows. I was with an old company and transferred the H1 in the 9th year to the new company. I already had my Labor and I-140 approved with the old company (EB3-I Category).
After switching to this new company I had to start my PERM all over again as I missed the July 2007 boat and could not file for I-485. My new company is based in L.A.-California. I am already drawing my salary from new company. They only have office in L.A. I work for them from my home office in NJ. Today the company's attorney called & asked me that I needed to have L.A. residential address as it is required to be stated on the application. I have no intentions to move to L.A. in near future. I am in a fix now as to how to go about this. I will appreciate all you gurus and experts advice and also please advise me repercussions if any.
Please help.

Hi All,
MY LC (PD May 2003) is still stuck in DBEC. So I may or may not be able to file withing Aug17th.
My question is regarding the procedure used by USCIS to process AOS applications. It would be great if someone could explain this to me.
These are my questions:
1. Is the AOS application processed by RD or PD?
2. Once USCIS starts processing the I485, do they check PD at any stage, or is it just used as the initail "gate " for allowing I485 application submission?
3. Suppose Tom with a PD of July 2006 applied in July 2007. Then Harry's case gets approved by BEC in August 2007 and he applies in October 2007. Who will get the GC first?
Thanks for the help!
I-485 would be processed by RD if (and only iffffff) the PD is current.
That means:
. Your PD has to be current for approval;
. Older PD still has a lot more value than RD;
. If BEC victims are unable to file for I-485 now (for lack of labor approval), they would be able to file I-140 and I-485 later, when their dates become current (remember: no approvals without forward movement of dates)
PS: I just got out of BEC mess (after 3 years), can't even imagine what's going on in minds of those still stuck :(

Trying to bump this up to get attention of experinced folks
your lawyer is right. When you file 485, your employer should give a employment offer letter that states that you have a job offer as per the terms and conditions of labor certification. That includes the geographical location of the job offer.

First because I'm new to IV, allow me to ask, who's Ron? (I joined in 07 but I haven't been active, just an occational browser :))
Like I said I'm willing to contribute if necessary. We have 50+ people here so it should not break anyone's bank...that's if most of us chip in.
Google Ron Gotcher and you will see who is he. He is an immigration attorny.

I e-filed my EAD and send documents.
E-filed on- 04/14/10
Documents received by USCIS and LUD on 04/16/10
LUD on 04/19/10
LUD on 04/20/10
So, on and after documents were received by USCIS, I had received 3 LUDs. Is this normal? Has it happened to someone else who e-filed. Mine is at NSC.
Thanks.

I quoted a fact (rational and valid) to argue your assumptions. I never even claimed to know what USCIS would do and how they would present the data. It was you who presented a theory to justify that we should not go with any change in the spill over. I want to know why you dont want EB3I not to proceed with this measure. Is it because you believe it will take away numbers from EB2 or EB3I is doomed with plenty of cases and any amount will not make any changes. I believe its perhaps the earlier than the later. See, we all have our needs and we all want to look for ourselves first (including you and me). Its basic human nature. We all can generate obfuscatory facts to push our agenda. But at the end does it justify the means ?
I just presented a theory. Right or wrong is upto you to decide. I never said EB3 should not do anything for or against spillover. All I am saying is spill over either helps Eb3 from 2001 - 2003 (perhaps some 2004) or helps Eb2 post 2005 now for all other Eb3 folks the hope lies in PD recapture or upgrading to EB2 ( if spill over rules benefit EB2 only).
What about all those visa subs in July 07 with PD in 2002 - 2004 who are waiting less than EB2 2005 cases? Is it legal for them to get GC quicker the answer is YES. Is it ethical? I would leave it to the readers to decide.

PlainSpeak

1. Bill applies to anyone who got their degree in preceding 5 years or resided legally since graduating (even greater than 5 years) will be eligible under this bill.
2. Many ROW EB2 and EB3 will get visa number from the 55K if they have advanced degree here. That means more spillover.
3. Many EB2I/C forks will get visa number from the 55K if they have advanced degree here. That means more spillover.
4. There are going to be more Indian and Chinese apply for EB2? Not that easy any more. The DOL is tougher than before on PERM application. I don't believe there are going to be 55K more new EB2 applicants each year. No matter whether there is additional 55k, people are always trying to applying for Eb2 if there can. As we don't see that many new EB2 now, I don't believe we will get that many new Eb2 later either. Plus, the bill does not say the 55K visa will only go to EB2.
5. What else can we do then? It is already very tough to push this bill through. Should we modify the bill by saying that just simply applying the 55K to everyone, no matter if he/she has advanced degree? I am perfectly OK with that if the IV core think it is a better idea. Personally, I think that would make this bill even more difficult. :
I respectfully diagree with you regarding your point 4
Perm may have got tougher but EB2 applications are still being filed. Along with that there are still students coming to US from india to do MS and they are alos going to apply in EB2 (I know i am generalizing but tell me if you are about to start ur GC process will you agree for EB3 knowing how the situation is currentlY for EB3)
Regarding your point 5
Yes that would make perfect sense logically but wil not happen because don't you know that persons who did MS in US are the elite. They are the best minds and make the most money and add the most to the US economy while guys who are working in US are are well lets just say not usefull to the economy and just taking free money. So looking at this issue from US side it makes sense to explicitly provide these 55 k visas to only US educated persons so that they can add more to the ecomony. And lest sface it who cares for guys who just work here but are not educated here.
