The slowness in the approval rate has me a little worried. In July many people got approved at within the first few days - that does not seem to have happened for the first 3 days of August so far. I'm hoping that this is just a blip and the trend picks up shortly.
Specially NSC - Not many approvals seen from there in the last few days:confused:

By grace of Almighty, finally my Inbox received the email from USCIS that I was eagerly waiting for.
Just few minutes back, I received the Email from USCIS for myself, my wife and daughter saying "Current Status: Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident".
It's a long journey started in August 1997 with landing in Washington Dulles Airport. Got a chance to start the GC process by filing Labor in 2001. The labor approval didn't come until 2007.
In 2004 had to take a transfer to different company which caused me to start the Labor again in Nov 2004. Lost the valuable 3 years of PD date.
Finally the approval for 2nd labor came just right before 2007 July Fiasco. Luckily I had my attorney filed my application on July 2nd itself. And Rest you know the story.
All throughout I was on H1B, on permanent employment and never out of status. Never had any problem with Immigration process except for the GC delay. In any way it was an interesting journey, making new friends, had the chance to live in SFO, LA, New Jersey, Virginia and currently in Maryland.
Many thanks to IV and its members for providing the wonderful platform for sharing and collaborating for common cause.
I wish all the best to all those who are still in queue. Hang in there. Your turn will come.

It is good to see the combined Immigration community efforts are bringing results. However, it appears that no attention is being paid to raise the issue of children ageing out because of visa retrogression and delay in labor clearance. The Child Status Protection Act(CSPA) passed in the year 2002 hardly provides any relief to I-140 based immigration petitions. While for I-130 (for US Citizens) applicants the date of child is frozen on the date of submission of I-130 form it-self, but for employment based immigrant applicants this Act provides a complicated way to calculate the child�s age and it just provides relief for any processing delays in 1-140 clearance only. It just ignores the fact that we have years of retrogression for employment-based category. At the time when this act was passed there was no retrogression in employment-based category and lawmakers perhaps never thought of hardship, which children and families may face because of the retrogression.
We need to raise our voice on this issue too. My son is going to miss out the chance of getting his green card just because his age works out as per formula given in CSPA Act to be 21 years and 12 days � because of 12 days my family may be penalized to be separated from our child whereas no one is going to consider 3 years delay in labor case in my case and then another 13 months we have to wait for filing 1485 after approval of I-140. Mine case was the most unfortunate in the sense that I got my I-140 approval in just 29 days whereas in all cases the normal time is 3-6 months. Had it taken 2 months, my son would have got the benefit under CSPA.
I hope some one from Immigration Voice leadership team will take a lead to highlight such issues also before the law makers.

I had been talking to Sivakanth and he told me how yourself, Arun and all your DC gang worked tirelessly
YOU GUYS were EXCELLENT and WONDERFUL
All this shows how much has gone into this rally and planning. This will give a sense of what it takes to achieve something that is phenomenal in nature.
Yes, we can achieve GROUND BREAKING results with folks like you
Thanks. I missed you. I think I should have seen you but can't remember. Since morning at least 10 people who i have talked to from Tri-State area asked me if I know where is chanduv23? they just wanted to see the great motivator like you. Please point me to the picture where I can find you. Your posts on the IV forum have been an inspiration for lot of folks. It takes people like you to form a group of wonderful hardworking folks.

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.
We took both of them to the doctor and the doctors treatment some how is working for only one... even if u change the doctor same thing..

I am in - along with my husband (and he is going to kill me for signing him up ...he he) for the Houston 5K run - lets start with that and see if I can finish..I'll take on more if I have success with this!
BTW, there is also a kids run for children ages 5 to 15 (K - 8) - my kids won't qualify for it, but those that have kids in this age group can truly train as a family.

They will still do all the work needed to approve your application even when it is retrogressed. But, they just will not issue the actual Green Card until the dates go past your PD again.
You can remain on H1 until such time or use ur EAD and renew it on a yearly basis. The choice is yours based on your circumstance.

I called congressman Hinjosa's office.
The staffer asked me where I am calling from. Then said you are not a constituent of the congressman and was not willing to transfer to the person who handles immigration issues. I insisted on leaving a message and he took the message, but was surprised, did anybody else encounter this? How do we handle this if it happens with other congressmen?
Thats alright. Some staffers do that to evade. In the end the call matters,

I just got my wife's medical done ...from the same place where I got mine.
There is not need of the xray. If you have proof of vaccination good else they will take some of your blood and do your immunization test and return the SEALED envelope after 3 days. cost $190
For TB test some times you might need to do the X-ray after the skin test if the result is 5mm or higher. These kind of tests are not suggested for pregnant women and the doctor will keep a note.

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?
Hi totro...Please ignore him and move on. If you read his other posts you would understand this. Please dont deviate from the core issues and wasting time to answering people who are raising unrealted questions.

AILA is trying to establish a precedent by saying that only the VB is the one that should determine the visa availabulity.
This means that restting VB dates is legal.
I can not believe AILA and immigration lawyers are so incompetent. What are they fighting? Just amazing! No end to Immigration crap!

I just signed up for $20 per month. I consider my cashflow situation to be not very good right now. Buying a house in SF Bayarea can do that to you. However I think that immigrationvoice is a cause too important to not contribute.
I mention my cashflow situation, so that those who might not be contributing for the same reason may also get inspired to come forward and contribute.

People like me are sitting on the fence. I wouldn't regret even if I don't get a GC at all...Sometimes, I feel that I am just waiting for any chance to go back to India... It is just the consideration of continuity in life for the family that really is driving me every day... It doesn't mean I will feel bad if I get the GC. The wait is simply not worth it. been living in multiple countries for the past 13 years... US is one another country for me.... That is just my case. I visit the forum and post in here because I can just monitor the situation... It is like monitoring my stocks, news on Libya,World cup, etc. Don't get me wrong guys... I wanted to share my facts.

People have various reasons for not participating ...its simple basic PR...IV as an organisation needs to frequently remind them of the good work IV has accomplished in maybe a regular newsletter...list out various needs that need attention and require volunteers for clearly defined roles...and be positive and coherent when replying to member's queries. Lashing out at members for asking simple questions is huge "no-no" for any organisation.

Yes. you are indeed having a discussion - a discussion with yourself because little of what you are saying is making any sense to anyone on this forum.
Yelling out a lie a hundred times doesnt make it the truth.
If you read IV's provisions, the one on tops is removal of per-country limits. Basically, it would remove all EB3 backlogs and WAS a part of the legislation introducted by rep lofgren in 2007/2008. for political reasons, it never passed in the house. Of course, you would blame IV for lobbying in such a way that the bills did not pass.
its very easy to criticise. Why dont you start an organization that would (in your opinion) do more for EB3? I am sure you will get the support of the thousands you claim do not believe in IV? If you succeed in doing that, there is no reason to have this "discussion".
you are a typical arm-chair critic who probably has done and will never do anything even one cents worth for the EB backlog cause.
Well what can i say it took less that 24 hours to get shot down again.
No one in EB3 is questioning IV's sincearity. What is being question is the approach which is impacting EB3
No one is yelling out a lie. What is being articulated (Not Yelled) is the impact of IV's direction
I have read IV's provisions and i have already stated in another thread that removal of per-country limits is a pipe dream and will never happen how many number of times it gets introduced in congress because it is there since immigration started and is the corner stone of US immigration policy
I will let the rest of your statement without comment because we are going back to the start of this discussion and is of no use name calling
