I am sure we are all rejoicing and this is surely a cause to celebrate.
But, the battle is not over yet. I hope once most of the members get their 485/EAD applications rolling, they will get back on track and fight for the real objective. To obtain our green cards in time!! Dont forget the wait is NOT over yet...
I am sure we all are going to be a lot rejuvenated and continue fighting retrogression with greater zeal..
Just to set the record straight even I benefit from the visa update, but I hope we dont slow down at this juncture...
waddle along folks...

How we are getting 50k is like this.
1) EB1 Over Flow (50% of EB1 was unused last year) 46k/2= 23k
2) EB2 Over Flow , this number is still fuzzy. But lets say around 10k.
3) EB2 India has quota of 3500.
So approx 40k.
Correct...This is a new thing starting this year. And as long as this interpretation holds good, we will see similar excess numbers available to EB2 India/China - until they become current.
Then these numbers will pass on to EB3 ROW
Then after that category becomes current, numbers will start flowing into EB3 India/China.
But all this is assuming, the number of GC applicants per year is less than 140/2.5 = 56K/Year + their interpretations do not change again.
I for one, would not be surprised to be see EB2 India move to 2007 next year.

Some people advise to wait and watch and some people ask to do something else. I would like to say one thing and it is purely my perspective. People who are waiting inline for 8-10years does not know when they will be getting their GC in hand. May be in next four to five years. By that time on average their age will be around 35-45.
Do you want to wait 4-5 years and do the job which you were doing 10years back?
Did you had any vision for your career when you started your GC and life?
Do you have the same vision now for your career and life?
Did you feel you and your family have sacrified enough in your personel life for this stupid GC?
IF YOU SAY I HAVE DECIDED TO GO BACK TO MY HOME COUNTRY:
Do you think you will get a managerial job if you go back to india at the age of 40 when you could see guys @30 doing that job with ease and with better experience?
Do you think becos of 10+years of expereince in programming field, indian companies will recruit you for managerial job?
Are you willing to work in India as a programmer with 10+ years of US exp under a 25-30 year old team lead or PM ?
If you say YES , YES , YES for all the above, do you think any indian company will recruit a programmer at the age of 40? forget about the salary you are going to ask for your exp which they will never accept.
So at the end if you wait long enough for GC, then it is better to wait here until you get it. At least you can save your life though you have to start your career from -10years. If you quit and decide to go back to your homecountry, your life is going to be tough.
Options for guys waiting for 8-10years for LC:
1. Try to get PMI Certification, CISA certificaiton.
2. Try to get TOEFL, GMAT scores and keep it ready.
3. Try to get in contacts with most of your friends and manpower agencies in India.
4. If you file for your 485 in next one or one and half years, then proeceed with MBA plans(parttime or full time or executive MBA) in top 25-30 business school.
5. Your waiting will yeild fruit in this country only with MBA as in next 10 years, US will need more managers than programmers to manager all their outsourced projects.
6. If you do not have such vision and you are happy with what you are doing now and if your job is secured for next 100years and if you feel that you will be happy in future by doing the same job and OK with other kids going up the ladder stepping on you and if you are ok reporting to them and listening to them, getting bashed by them etc etc, you can very well wait for next 100 years hoping to get GC one day.
I am not talking about one guy in one corner living beautiful life.
I am not talking about guys who are lucky on everthing to get on time including GC.
I am talking about majority of the people and general human nature, people who came to US with a vision for their career and life. People who have had and has a spark in their eyes.

needhelp...maybe instead of country of chargeability we should ask for grouping by country of birth; this is an actual field required in the I-485 form.
You are right about priority date. It is not a field available in the 485 form. in the 485 form we reference the approved I-140, which is the only place where your see the "Priority Date" field.

Yes that is true. They are lobbying strongly for H1b though they are supporting GC increases. Actually with H1b you can stay unlimited years if you apply gc. So there is no urgency for corporations to resolve the issue. They do not have fear of losing you as you are going to stay in USA until you get green card
You are right, but they do have some or may be a little more interest in the GC process too.
1) Because they are paying a lot of money to these consultant companies which they want to reduce.
2)Come to wall street, you will see so many consultants that are needed here to keep this economy running. A high number of H1-B will definitly reduce the price but still they will not get what they want meaning a permanent employee on a lesser pay. Tech companies cannot hire a person permanently because he is stuck with his employer who has filed his GC.
The companies cant continue to pay a lot to these consultanting companies.
Secondly this country should attract good brains, who might not want to come here. Believe me my friends in india are happy there and do not want to come here. They are living in there own homes with families, enjoying every part of our indian culture and are happy.
If nothing really works out here I will be looking out for an oppurtunity back home.

Couple of more questions regarding the dependant AP renewal:
1) Is it necessary to send the previous AP copy. The instructions of I-131 do not mention anything of sending previous copies. Dependent's AP is expired.
2) And as my spouse is maintaining her own H1 and has renewed it last year, do we need to send a copy of recent I-797 also along with the supporting docs. I have written "H1/Pending AOS" in 'Class of Admission' question. So I am assuming I need to send a copy recent H1 also since in the instructions they ask for any current USCIS doc showing status.
Thanks in advance

Dear All,
My brother completed his Masters in Mechanical Engg in December 2006 and is on OPT till December 2007.
His H1b was filed through a IT consulting firm (Lets say Company B) and is in process and is due by October.
He has now pursued employment in his own field in company B on his OPT.
Company A is cooperative and says they can assist in h1b transfer when the h1b comes through to company B.
The question is, is paystub needed for this kind of transfer? Or Transfer can be done prior H1b start date (ie Oct 1st, 2007) as he is still in OPT?
Thanks.

The US Immigration Law is a nightmare.
Couple of years ago, I migrated to Australia.
The Australian laws are very clean and straight forward. There is only one application form with some very simple question and detailed instructions. Just fill up the form, enclose the necessary documents and fees. That's it. You are done. In due time they will let you know "YES" or "NO".
There is no need to feed fat-belly hungry sharks called "Immigration Attorneys" (of course there are exceptions).
Once your case is approved, you and your family are eligible for the all the rights (except Vioting Power) enjoyed by any Australian Citizen.
Once accepted, there is no official discrimination.
Here the US Government cries about anti-discrimination, human rights etc, but those are only eye-wash. They should take lessons from the Australians.

Hi folks,
Here's my situation:
Currently applied for 485 and waiting for receipt
Will be applying for EAD/AP this week.
I am working Company XYZ, in State A, City A currently and will be transferring to State B, City B within the same company, with the same job designation/description etc., absolutely no changes on that front and virtually no change in salary but in compliance with prevailing wage etc. for State B, City B.
Also the transfer is not going to affect my 485 because of my 140 which said "relocation within the US may be necessary" and this was expected when I started my GC.
The issue is with a technicality - my PERM was for XYZ, Inc and the same company in State B is called XYZ Engineering Inc, technically 2 different companies and that's because every state has its own rules as to how a national company can be registered/operated.
Coming to my question re H1B:
My corporate attorney says that due to this technicality, my H1B needs to be AMENDED which according to my GC attorney is the same as applying for a new H1B but not having to wait in line. My question is whether this will have a negative impact on my pending 485/EAD/AP in any way.
Please advice. Anything will help.
Thanks in advance.

And most people on this forum who rail against the treatment of Indians might want to think about why they left India in the first place. India is by and large an extremely unfair place to live. There is constant discrimination. We left because we wanted to lead a decent life without pandering to someone all the time. Everyone from India on this forum was fortunate enough to be educated enough that they could afford to make that choice. There are a billion people who can't make that choice. And they are in India. We chose to abandon them and come live among what we percieved to be a fairer society. And it is, in a lot of ways. Do not be hasty to judge through the glasses of pent-up frustration about your current circumstance. If you have a personal experience that you thought was not fair, tell them at that moment why it's not cool. And by and large, they will stop or at least empathize with you. Try that back in India - tell your local politician why you think he's not doing a good job and see how well that goes.
