we are working on setting up a webfax aimed at House members supporting Congressman Shadegg's bill.
Logiclige,
Does the SKIL bill have to go back to the Senate if it is passed in the House, since the SKIL Bill was already a part of the CIR and the senate voted on it? Or does the full circle have to be followed all over again?

Not from last nights interview, but in primaries season during Politico's live interview on CNN Obama said this about legal immigration:
"It is important that we fix the legal immigration system, because right now we've got a backlog that means years for people to apply legally. What's worse is, we keep on increasing the fees, so that if you've got a hard working immigrant family, they've got to hire a lawyer; they've got to pay thousands of dollars in fees. They just can't afford it. It's discriminatory against people who have good character, but don't have the money. We've got to fix that. "

We have seen in the past years EB3 ROW got huge visa bonanza at the cost of EB2 I & C. And now apparently EB2 I & C is getting rightly deserved visa bonanza.
How about asking DOS to give similar visa numbers to EB3 I & C as a one time exception. I know people will say it is against law, but in my opinion law is fuzzy enough for this to happen.
DOS can give explanations like "Visa numbers will be given to oldest PDs or some thing". Per my calculation EB3 I needs 68K visas to move past 2003.
We (IV) may have to make representation to Secretary of State and try and convince her.
DISCLAIMER:- I am Eb2 and current in Aug.

Do we need to write A# on back of the Passport Photos??? I missed to write.
Yes. You need to write name and A# behind the photos with a soft tipped pencil as per USCIS instructions.

"I am in. Now you can shut the freaking door on all those suckers who didn't manage to get in on time..."
No wonder that people start demanding to curb immigration right after getting their green cards.
By the way I am on h1B. I dont have GC

Most countries do not have 9,800 EB applicants every year - in fact, most countries use well under 1,000.
The total number of applicants from other countries can be derived from roughly estimating number if H1 holders, adjusting for Indians and Chinese, and then dividing by 2 (50% of H1Bs never end up getting a green card), and then multiplying by 2 to adjust for derivatives. The bottom line - there are visas available in EB2 ROW and EB1 categories (which are current, meaning, undersubscribed), that are getting redistributed to EB3 ROW. This is why EB3 in total is using more than its share of 140,000 EBs. In fact, I believe the dates will be moving pretty fast on EB3 ROW, it will probably get all current in a couple of years.
Yes. The overflow will go to EB3 ROW first and then to the over subscribed countries and will get evoporate :) The avaiable visa's then goes back to square one. This is why at times EB3 ROW is also getting back logged and many in ROW oppose this trend as well.
I am of the opinion that there should not be any country specific quota in EB at all. When it is already proved that no American is available for the skill set required and being substituted with a Foreign worker, then from where the nationality came in to the picture? Does the companies bother about the skill set required or the nationality? If not, then why USCIS should bother about it and create a mess in the work force? I hope they will realize this soon and make amendments accordingly.
Thanks

Yes ? No?
I applied my Lab at Sep 2001 got approved in Ocy 2005. I140 cleared in 3 months. Now I applied for my I 485 in June 2007.
My friend applied his lab through the same company in May 2001. Got GC 3 years back.
Another friend came to this coutry in Dec 2006. Applied lab in Feb 2007. He is going to apply his I485 tomorrow.
What should I say? Am I pissed?
Ahahaha good luck guys.

Credit cards are issued mostly to GC holders only unless they have a checking account as well with the institution-unless one lies in the application. -snip-.
Unless there has been a change in the policy after 2000, one only needs SSN and a checking account (not necessarily at the same bank) to get a credit card. It is true that having no prior credit record is a hindrance, but that mostly affects the credit line (you will get a small credit line). All F1 students with some kind of assistantship/scholarship/stipend would satisfy that. AmEx used to be a very good choice for students that time.

eb3napa,
thanks for the clarification. I have a BE and an MBA form India with over 6 yrs experience in the USA and elsewhere. Not sure if i qualify as advanced degree.
So peopel with advanced degree can move out of EB3 or any EB quota is it ? Their PD will be current ?
Not necessarily getGC. I am EB3 but i am a Masters from the US. Sometimes for fresh hires lawyers play it safe by applying in EB3. I had emailed someone at competeamerica.com and they had mentioned that an "advanced degree" is either a masters or a PhD. You mentioned that you had an engineering degree from India. Is that a B.E. or an M.Tech/M.E.? If you have a master's degree from India, you need to ask ur lawyer if that qualifies as an advanced degree.
But even otherwise, it still benefits you, coz say even 20-25% of Current EB3 have master's degrees, they will be out of the queue and you will be benefitted. I know it doesnt sound like a benefit, coz it is not a direct one, but if you look at it from a different angle, you will see it.

No immigrant Visa is available until the thing is current. From my understanding, Adavnce Parole is not a visa. Quoting from the net.
"Advance Parole is permission for certain foreign nationals, who do not have a valid immigrant visa, to reenter the U.S. after traveling abroad"

A quick net-worth calculator:
Wakes up and decides more action is needed -------------> +10 pionts
Considers two options:
Become more active at IV and help shape and lead effort ---> worth +100 pts
Open a new venue for influencing our future ---------------> Also worth +100 pts
Finally settles on an easy three-pronged third way:
Trash current volunteer leaders ----------------------------> -500 points
Offer no new ideas on what can be done--------------------> -200 points
Use words such as "zapata" in a post -----------------------> -50 points.
Here's how you can say sorry: Add a mew member (or contribute a dollar) to IV for every -10 points you have earned.
I think a change of leadership of IV is critical if we have to get anywhere. IV has not been able to achieve a single thing in all of its existence. Not a single thing, nada, zitto, zapata. Not disclosing the issues they are working on, not disclosing how the funds are distributed, not disclosing the lobbyist they are using. Who in the world calls that leadership!
That is the reason that no one wants to contribute. First get some results, show people results for what they have paid for. Then ask for more money. Most people I talk to are confident that IV will achieve nothing given their track record. I tried to convince a colleague to join IV. He bet with me that they will not be able to achieve even this filing I-485 issue. He bet that he will join and pay if they did.
I know IV works like dIVorced wIVes club and saying anything negative is taboo. Anyone saying anything negative is crushed with (p)curses. Only good mushy things are allowed here. So here it is: We will get our GCs by the end of the month. Hallelujah!
But I am writing this for the benefit of IV and please take this as constructively as you can. As a member, I have full right to suggest a change of leadership when I think it can help.

I was in a similar boat as you when i filed my I485. I was forced to file 140 premium by itself as they stopped accepting starting july 2 07. So we shipped 140 on 29th june 07.On 5th july 07 my attorney shipped 485 with a FedEx acknowledgement of 140 doc acceptance and entire photo copy set of 140 documents

Check with your lawyer but I believe there may be a grace period wherein they allow you to add your wife's name after 485 filing. In addition, there is a 4 year backlog in the family based green card process. 01-JUN-02 for FB-2A (India).
My pd is jan 2005 and i was waiting for the dates to become current.I am not married and will most probably get married by this year end[parents in the process of searching matches].my dilemma is whether to apply for 485 now or not.can i add my wife's name later on while the 485 is in the final stages of the process[say an year after the process began] or just before the green card is being dispatched etc so that both of us can get green cards.i dont want to miss this chance because i seriously feel that the dates might retrogress again.but if i apply and get a green card u all know how many years it will take to get wife to usa in family based immigration.somebody please clear my doubt.Thank you

No you can't. You must have filed separately. You could have amended your return to file jointly, but not the other way around.
Thanks Totoro.
So, I can do it that way (file separately first and get stimulus and then amend the return to file jointly after I get stimulus) only for tax year 2008?
(IRS website also says if u do so, you dont have to return the stimulus benefit - unfortunately this clause was added only on 04/14/2008!! according to IRS website).
I cannot do anything this year I guess??
how could IRS expect us to file separately and get the stimulus and then amend our return as filing jointly without loosing the stimulus by announcing it on 04/14/2008??? I dont understand this stupidity at all!!
