Thanks 9Years for sharing the info. My I-140 was filed on Oct 20th under premium processing and still waiting for approval.
As next step, are you planning to do interfiling or wait and see if I-485 will be approved automatically ?

Until the CIR becomes law, you can still file LC and 140. So do not assume anything.
Once your labor is cleared, you can get one year extn. If possible, try to file that one year extn before this becomes a law. Still this may not solve the issue other than postponing the issue.
So basically if this becomes law..Iam screwed..I am in my 30 day waiting period to file for my Labor in Jul-07 & want to get a 7th year extention in June-08. Am I reading it right?
thx

Arrived to USA on October 1999 at H1B. Started the green card in 2000 under EB2 but due to dot com burst changed the Job. Started again GC under EB3 in 2002 but the attorney and the company took one year to file the paper to USCIS.

Glad to see there are people like me on this thread. I came to the US in FEB 1995 as an undergrad. I have an MS today and dropped out of the PHD program (2000) to find a job because of recessions. Survived 3 top-notch companies, recessions, despicable back-stabbing coworkers, unethical and unworkable environment, lay-offs, legal dept messing up my H1b application making me go on unpaid leave (~3wks) without health insurance, filing me under EB3 while applying EB2 for another coworker from a diff country with the same job title, etc etc....my rear end is pretty soar these days and I am beginning to question all this....
i usually dont post much...but I couldnt resist this thread
It will take another 9-10 years to get your GC if the system remains the same.
Please upgrade to EB2

There will be lot of LC's that will be coming up for sale or to lure employees since majority of the employees might have left Desi Consulting Cos becoz of the sheer amount of Dirt Practice, they do.
INS at some point of time should ban LC substitution. this is another mess that is a slow poison for retrogression.

Has anybody called the USCIS customer service number regarding AP ?
If we have a emergency reason to travel out of the country, can we call the customer service and request expedited processing of AP ?
One my friends got his wife's AP approved by scheduling an appointment with local InfoPass office. but you need a valid reason and proof for that. In his case he got his father in law's medical certificate from India.

Absolutely, the idea of doing a rally is what;s the need of the hour.
Illegels have showed up the way to make their voices heard at the center.
have we forgotten , rallies are not new to us, that how Gandhi fought independence.
We got to wake up come out of our comfort zones and small interests
look at the magnitude of teh problem.
If we dont stand up, they will do whatever they want to.
backlog will go in parallel with retrogression.......
calling senator , faxing ur views can help to convey ur message but we need
to be agressive
when they have a choice to discuss and decide on some matter
it will be illegals not us as they are ones who have created nuisance.
think what will happen to US economy if all of H1B holders stop working for a day, noone supporting their applications, data, security
they outght to take action only if we stand up...
i am in for any such kind of rallies,
place does not matter, you dont have to do it at the center only
as long as it can be conveyed through the media it will be heard.
email if anyone of you is willing to take this up in sothern california

No dear friend...what if you are already inside this country and waiting for 10 years. Even if you become a manager in these companies, you wont be eligible as you had to have at least one year outside the country. So progressing not going to help. How about a person who is less qualified, less experienced getting GC in six months when you wait for 5-10 years. Its not about jealous, its about fairness and justice. Dont bring in EB2-EB3 here. We are all in this sh*&t togather.
At the end of the day what matters is you have an option open via this route. It is your personal choice if you would rather wait here 10 years or work in your home country for 1 year. Why shut a door that's meant for you? Opportunity is very hard to come by

This would technically mean that anyone anywhere in the world now, who has ever been to the US on a H visa, can apply for a GC based on the first touchdown date.
Interesting!!!

USCIS should come up with strategy like if you are in US for 'X' years and if your 485 pending for 'Y' years and if you own a house worth 'XXX$' , then they should give GCs irrespective of Category(Eb1,Eb2,Eb3,Eb4 etc..)
People who can buy houses are more important to USCIS/US than people who already have bought houses.

Hi! I have some questions:
1. Do you have a lawyer when you filed the first MTR or did you do it by yourself?
2. Did you submit a copy of the I-140 approval and the AC21 memo during MTR?
Thanks.

Guys,
As long as the legal immigration is part of a illegal immigration reform bill. Its hard to push these "brilliant ideas" before congress or USCIS. Its very unfortunate that Congress doesn't distinguish between legal and illegal immigration.
All are talking about "Comprehensive immigration reform"
but just think, what is really happening in terms of "comprehensiveness" for Legal immigrants? recapture old visa numbers to clear backlogs thats it? Would the multi teir very complex legal immigration process getting any better? Why should a person wait for a PD to become current for 4+ years when DOL(labor Dept certified that there is a requirement for the job?).
Why are we calling it "comprehensive" then? give some thought about it.
Thanks

All the info here is great !!
Pardon my ingnorance, but if I wanted to start a small time business where I do website development and designing either myself or by a company outside US, do I need to file as an LLC or can I register as a small business. Can someone tell me where I might get details for registering a company (Or is that same as LLC).
I was thinking I will not get EAD earlier than 6 months and I got it in less than 6 weeks....so now am doing some basic ground work and would appreciate any guidance !!
Thanks in advance.
