My suggestions:
1. Combine labor certification and I-140 into a single process. It doesn't make sense to have two stages for employment based petition.
Advantages:
Candidate will know the result in a single stage. Once that stage is cleared he will know he is good to go from an employer perspective. Right now even after clearing Labor stage one is not sure what happens at I-140 stage. This leads to more uncertainty, worst case he will have to restart the GC process again if 140 stage fails after waiting for couple of years.
2. Ability to Pay requirement should be only for a few years ( 2- 3 years) from the priority date.
Right now if DOL/USCIS takes its own sweet time in processing perm/140 cases ( as happened for July fiasco cases), employer has to prove ability to Pay for all the years from the priority date. A company can close down, can go bankrupt in a recession during these long years. We have seen big wallstreet firms go belly up in this recession.
3. Pre-adjudicate all 485 cases within 18 months from the day it is filed. Once pre-adjudicated, the case should be accorded a FINAL status which means all processing requirement for the case has been met and no further RFEs can be issued on the case. Online status of the case should reflect the FINAL status.
Right now backlogged country candidates has to wait for a long time in uncertainty due to the current process. Once this change is implemented, candidates can have a peace of mind and guarantee that they will get a GC once visa number are available.

Did anyone receive PERM approvals from Atlanta Processing Center in the recent times? Please post your filing date and days it took to get approval. They seem to be very slow in processing PERM applications. Any updates would be much appreciated.

Hi Totoro,
Please dont get distracted by posts of few "idiots" who do not know who you are and what you have done to help folks on h4 and h1. They are new and they are not aware of your good intentions, only folks who have been following this forums for a long time know about you.
so you need not prove to anyone who you are or what you do, we all know about you and are really grateful for what you have done already.
I just have one request - can we eliminate the fact that our PD has to become current to apply for AOS, so that dependents of 485 filed members who have still not filed 485 can file now and atleast get a EAD/AP/SSN and they can start their careers. This should not be that tough, since anyway one day they got to file and it also brings money to USCIS.
So my request is,
Allow folks to file for AOS and not wait for PD to be current !!!!!!!!!!
Allow folks to file for AOS and not wait for PD to be current !!!!!!!!!

First, I am not promising to solve anything. I am just saying that I will bring up the issues when I have my meeting. If this thread is a distraction, then feel free to ignore it.
Second, those who have participated in this forum over the past year know about the issues I was working on.
Third, the forum moderators have my contact information and I have corresponded directly with them (Aman Kapoor). If you don't believe I am who I say I am, feel free to contact the mods.
I am not sure what the point is about "innocent Indians." Does it really matter if I am Canadian? Is this forum restricted to South Asians?

Gonna be a long long long wait for people with PDs of 2007 (EB3) who got their labor certified after July.
Yep. It would be good for EB3/2 - India-PD 2007 filer considering canadian immigration simultaneously...ofcourse do not rush now for filing Canadian PR - As Canada generally gives you PR witin 2 years and by that time 2007 filers may not have passed FBI check for their 485 here..If the way things are going I see at least 5 years wait for 2007 (India)filers.

I think most on here know that IV's central goal is to clear the backlog
However there are many underlying specifics to get to this goal
and i think that's what the members on here want to hear about.
for example
Re-capture of unused visa numbers
removing country specific limits
Automatically granting visa numbers to those who have waited 5 years or more
Increasing the total number of EB visa numbers
Allowing non-current people to file I-485 and get EAD
As you can see there are many different causes and many different solutions
What is IV advocating...which cause?...which solution?
StarSun, Pappu please don't take things personally. Not all members can go to DC or visit their state representatives. I am sure IV has many other needs. If we can identify and openly publish a list of things that are needed then we can certainly increase volunteers and participation
Btw...how do you join the state chapter?
The answers to many of the questions asked may be obvious for you since you are heavily involved with IV...but they are not obvious to a lot.

Lasantha, I do congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. It has been a uphill journey for everyone. I am happy that you have completed your journey successfully.
One last question,
You mentioned your RD is June 29th. Is it the date from your FEDEX tracking #? Or this date is mentioned on your USCIS 485 receipt? Why am I asking this as because, I sent my application on 30th July, USCIS got it on JULY 31st. I sent it to NSC, USCIS transferred to TSC, TSC issued my EAD, AP and a 485 notice on Sep 22 mentioning that they are transferring my case to NSC. That is why it is very important for me to know if they will consider my JULY 31st date or Sep 22nd?
Friends,
I have some happy news. I received the welcome email today. I am so so so happy!!! I haven't received the card ordered email yet but hopefully I will get it soon.

Contribute for what. I would , If I am told for what we are contributing. What are the real faces.
Don't contribute, come to DC and you will find & know all the faces behind IV
I am not one of those who can go advocate at places as I do not have luxury of it. I respect people who are going beyond their daily schedule and advocating, but what are the goals.
It is certainly not because I/others want to see the buildings that we are asking people to come to DC - and the people going in to the meetings will be advocating for their and your green card issues (whether you want it or not - these efforts will benefit everyone stuck in the EB backlogs including you!). Getting the green card backlogs cleared is the goal - and it is deplorable that after being a member since 2007, you do not know this.
I have been coordinating with IV for the past 2 years now and I have never had members (majority) - including you - once trying to find a way of helping in this cause. IV has had the campaign of meeting with lawmakers in their local districts at a time that is convenient for each member - IN THEIR OWN LOCAL TOWNS - and I can count my fingers and toes on how many have actually done it.
The sad part is that you come from a state that was successful in raising $1500 from members (in addition to the contributions to IV and air mile donations) and instrumental in sending 5 members fully funded to DC + 2 green card holders + 2 members buying their own tickets. The chapter is coming together in these circumstances and you are clueless....... of what is happening within your own state - Joining the chapter neither costs money nor effort, just the benefit of knowing what is happening within your state!
I however want to contribute not *donate* if I know what am I going after.
Contribute or Donate - if it is money - it is one and the same practically. I am not sure what you are going after, but I can tell you what IV is going after - clearing the EB backlogs.
For any advise the standard answer we get is - Consult your immigration lawyer.
We actually provide 4 reputed lawyers (Ari Sauer and Greg Siskind of VisaLaw.com, Raj Iyer of Offices of Carl Shusterman, and Prashanthi Reddy of Reddyesq) with whom you can get your questions answered for free 3 Thursdays in a month! Do you know about the conference calls that is done every week with attorneys - check it out in the members forum if you were unaware of it!
I dont want to dampen the interests of others who are ready to contribute. Tell me few reasons and I can contribute a decent amount.
Nobody in this forum or elsewhere said, "Mr/Ms bitzbytz - please donate the money to IV" And certainly no one is forcing you to do it either. There are requests for contributions from many members - because they believe in the cause - and their audience are fellow believers.
May be we should make this paid. and then I will find my reason and I will pay to join
We are happy with people who believe in the cause and want to donate. You are most welcome to use IV for free!

If dates remain current, I-485 will be processed based on receipt date
If dates retrogress (Likely to happen on July 3rd, July 15th, July 31st.....take your pick), then I-485 will be processed based on PD
I just received the following email from my attorney:
"We have just received notification that the State Department plans to issue
a revised Visa Bulletin for July 2007. We expect to receive this on Monday
or Tuesday. The revised bulletin would retrogress some or all of the
employment based categories, very likely to the point of unavailable. We
will keep you posted".
This is bad news and I have not even filed the 485 yet.

Someone mentioned that all vaccines except for Hepatitis B can be completed in 2 days...Hepatitis B takes 6 months. My PD has become current and I haven't had my medical examination yet. I have to take Hepatitis B since don't have immunization records from India.
Does this mean that I can't apply for my I-485 for the next 6 months until I am done with all my Hepatitis B shots?
Thanks,
Jayant
I am not sure if you need Hepatitis B though. I didn't have Hepatitis B either. The physician did blood work and certified that I satisfied all immunization requirements.

Also,
How come no one in your company B asked you whether you are married or not and whether or not you need H4 filed for you spouse. Same thing about company C. Either of these companies' HR or immigration lawyer should have asked you about dependents and spouse?
I dont know but even the smallest of consulting companies dont make this kind of mistake and they would remind you if you forget. My company's lawyer is quite lazy and slow but even his paralegal asked all the right questions and got all documents needed and didnt forget stuff when filing for various things.
Well that's where small consulting company comes handy. I had this experience with a big company. They never asked for my wife's I-94 till the 11th hour when I brought the fact that I'm married and my wife (no wives here :( ) might need some extension. Since, it was my first H1 extension after marriage, I really didn't know that company has to file for her extension as well. I thought it just happens automatically..how naive I was.

Years we have been told priority date establishes your place in the queue.
We have spurned job offers and declined the new PERM process to hold on to the priority dates.
Many are still awaiting labor certifications from the backlog elimination centers. Out comes USCIS and says everyone with a LC can file I140 & I485.
People still waiting for LC with priority dates in 2003-2004 are seeing applicants who have priority dates as late as 2007 but with approved LCs through PERM walk through to I485.
Net result, USCIS is going to be flooded with applicants enough to retrogress the priority dates 3-4 years back as early as september. (Everybody with a LC will be able to file for I485 in July). So applicants with priority dates of 2007 are going to get EAD and GC, while LC backlogged 2003 applicants to have to wait for another 3-4 years before they can even file I485.
Aint fair. Aint fair at all. How can this be. How can rules be changed in the middle of the game.
I truely feel your pain but I don't quite understand what you say about declining PERM to hold your place in the line. As far as I know and correct me if I am wrong, doesn't PERM has the option of porting the PD from an existing and pending labor petition?
Again please don't misunderstand me. I am not trying to lecture you. But please look in to that option.

My apologies for replying to a posting from like a million years ago :-)
But, I really do not understand why you have to knock Saralayar like that in your reply. What has he said that is so offensive or disgusting?
I really see no problem with his/her post, he was just asking the IV community if his issue can be addressed or not. Its up to the community as a whole to decide what to do with it.
Relax, the sky is not falling down on you!
I am surprised, but are you really a member of the "high skilled" community or are you just faking it to be on this forum?
I don't think you should embarrass your self or your profession, though we do not know your identity.

This rumor from fragomen's site is creating a havoc everywhere.
These rumors are wreaking havoc on people who are not in a perfect position to control the timing of filing. Many lawyers and many employers will file between 25th and 31st July. And I can accept that. My own HR and lawfirm have made it clear that we will file before 31st July but there is no guarantee that it will be sooner than that and any sooner than that is not neccesary.
Those who are filing on their own can file on July 1st. But those who are depending on lawyers and their own HR, please relax and stop thinking too much.
