You may think that your contribution does not matter as long as others contribute. You may think that your contribution cannot change anything. ... If you think so, then you are wrong.
Your contribution is critical to this organization! You contribution is important to yourself--the legal immigrant!
Let me tell you what will happen if you don't contribute now:
With the number of people who have contributed stabilizing at a low level, IV's lobbying will be very very limited.
Then people who have contributed would feel disappointed.
Sooner or later, those people would withdraw their contribution.
Eventually IV will be closed.
From then on, you, who don't contribute now, will have no organization to speak up for you.
From then on, you will complain your situation in your company, seeing your peers get promoted while you get stuck in the same position because of your GC application.
...
Maybe, at that time, you will say to yourself, "if I have contributed to IV in that special year, if all people like me have contributed, we would have get our GCs. Then, maybe, my life would have been totally different..."
Let me also tell you what you can lose if you contribute.
Your immigration status will NOT become worse, if it cannot get better.
The only thing you will lose is about $200 or less if you contribute $20/month. It will happen this year or never! If it does not happen this year, you can always withdraw your subscription.
I believe many people would pay $20,000 to buy a GC if possible. If IV brings 1% chance to help pass the bill, $200 is a very fair price! Besides, I believe the opportunity cost for people who has no GCs is probably more than $20,000 a year, considering a potential promotion or a job change. For those people, don't you think $200 is a very reasonable price to buy yourself a 1% chance?
Besides, the chance that IV brings to us is much much higher than 1%!
You are all high skilled workers. You can do this math very well!
So come one! Make contribution now or you may have no chance to make this great deal!
Very well said. Thank you. Wish more people think like you.

MY PD is also July 26 2007.
I live in Texas as well.
My case is filed in Chicago based on my employer state which is MO.
If your employer is in Texas your case would have been filed in Chicago.
It is taking longer than 2 months to get approvals.
Hopefully we will get approved soon and get the hard copy before August 17th to file the I-140 and I-485 together.
Good Luck

Here is the self-filing thread.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5132
Please read the disclaimer on the home page about the thread content. These are members like you and they are not lawyers and the forums advice is not legal advice or legal counsel. Do it at your own risk.
You still do need your employer to give you one letter about your future employment. Other than that, you might have everything you need to file your 485 and employer's involvement is minimal.
If your 140 has not yet been filed, then you definitely need your employer's involvement and in that case, firing your lawyer hired by your employer might actually cause more delay because you will have to do a lot of co-ordination on your own with employer and your new lawyer. Getting 140 filed without lawyer is probably very tough. So self-filing of 485 makes sense mostly for those who have approved 140.
Although I used my lawyer to file my I-485 ( My date was current in June and I submitted all my papers to my lawyer on May 20th and actually it was filed on 27th June), I also prepared I-485/ead application myself over the weekend and when I compare this application with lawyer's, mine was more accurate because lawyer mad small mistake in my address.
Anybody who follow this thread can prepare the application by him/herself.

Snathan,
Congratulations on clearing your first hurdle. I talked to my attorney today and she said that audit reply was on March 11th, and need to wait 4 months before we can contact the DOL about the follow-up. Need to wait 2 more months.
Please keep us posted about your discussions with Ron.

Since we now know that SA 187 had nothing to do with immigration and that it WAS indeed passed, the possible typo in this thread (about SA 187) title should be changed to something along the lines "Senate immigration amendment to H.R 2 NOT passed".
Besides we should whoheartedly explore with Kennedy, Kerry et al. if they game for pushing the immigration amendment (w/o the hard 10% country cap) in the house-senate conference.
If they are playing politics with the Sen Session illegal immigrant amendment (which passed!) we might as well use their tete-a-tete to our advantage ;)
BTW sen Sessions amendment also did not pass. It was just introduced, Th estatus of SA143(session's amendment) and SA180 is same.

If you read closely, it appears like the 290,000 immigrant visas would be true for years from now on and for years 2001-2005 (the diffrence between current limit and this section). If that's the case and if that becomes a law, there is possibility there will be no backlog after that for some time...short time probably. Please correct me if I am wrongly reading this section. But for me, it appears it applies retroactively and will add the diffrence (150k a year) between years 2001-2005. If my calculation and understanding is correct, once this act becomes a law, the first year there would be 290k + 600k from years 2001-2005 ......I am not sure if my understanding is correct. I prey it is..
I don' think there is a point which says the visas from 2001-2005 will we
290K. From this fiscal year it will be 290K.
1) The total number of visa available that were not used last year
2) the total number of visa available that we not used from 2001-2005
From 2001-2006 the total was 140K
140 / 4 categories = 35000K for each(India-china-mexico-other). Now we do not know how many were unused from 2001-2006.
From what I understand, I do understand the country limits, and my guess is
There is no country limits, but only EB type limits.
If I am correct the dates of Each should move at least 2-2.5 years from now.
I believe people who need I-485 filling option without priority date should hope to get this too. STEM section has more support to be passed because it was never an issue in any of the houses.
This is my understanding-- I may be wrong

Hi Edd,
Thanks fo rthe reply, in my case, it was not a mistake by the registrar, my grand parents just happened to give ' a name' and when my parents enrolled me at school, they gave my current name. I am not sure, if I hav a official govt doc saying my current name is the changed name from my old name, will this help as a valid document.

You don't contribute because your issue of "name check" is not on IV's agenda?
No. The I-129 is submitted by your employer. Your leaving the country does not affect the H1 petition.
Only the COS will not be automatic in October, and you will need to get stamping or re-submit I-539 to validate your H1.
Hope you win the lottery!

I think Kerry(i think it is actually Kennedy E who introduced it - SA180 , SA 187 did not have anyhting to do with us it was for Women centers) di dnot have any good intentions for us in troducing this.If you see on Thomas(or congress.gov and search for HR2, see the fourth version, and check out amendments), SA180 was amendment to SA143 (this is by our friend Jeff Sessions). So most probably it was part of politics. Also this status says both these amendments wer eintroduced in Senate but thats it, they did not pass.
Yes, I agree that it was probably part of politics. This is really sad. The situation becomes very frustrating for us.

However, we received my wife's EAD on 04/12 but not mine. I am the primary application of 485.
Did this happen to anyone else ?

Yeah some forget to be civil...but i believe that these few don't represent all of of IV.
And we are all subject to emotions and can make these mistakes as well where we forget to be civil.
I agree there needs to be more clarification on IV's goals and current pursuits....coming soon....a better FAQ page ;)

How many IVians hit the gym and treadmills at least 2 to 3 times week. Imagine, if you could continue to maintain your fitness goals, but at the same time your efforts can raise nominal funds like $300 or $500 for IV, now wouldn't that be something to be proud of?
It takes 45 mins to walk a 5K, your friends and family could possible support you by making donation on your behalf for IV. So it is a win win situation, maintain fitness goals, and raise money for IV.

Guys let it be selfishness... but ultimately if we win, it is a win for every one... I am living in this country for more than 11 years but still with an EAD status.... We are spending most of our life time as an ALIEN. Think yourself which is better...
Saralayar, I agree to your point. As a note, you have to understand I have been in this country for about 13 years and working in the same job since 1999. I am still waiting for my green card as you can see from my priority date.
I don't mind members enthusiastically starting a campaign. I am all for it. I am sure IV core is also in support of it. But we also need to identify people who really believe in the cause and will continue with the cause irrespective of what happens to their situation. In this case, GCPerm has shown that the cause what he/she fights for depends on which basket he/she wants to pick his fruits from. When he/she gets his/her share of fruits they will leave.
I hope we do not waste our time and resources with people who are bound to leave when their situation is clear. That is my point.
I do not see GCPerm as a leader who will continue to resolve misery of people suffering due to backlog even after he/she gets his/her citizenship. Wasting time and money with that kind of a leader will lead nowhere.
