All this May 15th/21 date is open to interepretation there is no set concrete laws yet.I just filed I-140 and I-1485 on the 1 st June and my attorney told me just go and wait now and live your life.We can worry about stupid laws that MIGHT go into affect a yr or never and destroy your precious time.
In the meantime go to NUMBERSUSA website and send as many faxs against this CIR bill and get it shutdown.
Yes i know NUMBERSUSA is anti-immigrant but in this situation it beneficial to all us legals if this bill goes down in flames.
How could you file the 140 and 485 at the same time, are you filing in EB1 catagory? which country?

What can we do about it ? I knew 3-4 guys who ported from EB3 to EB2 and even got their 485 approved because of this, during August.

These people were not eligible for EB2 when they filed their own labor.. so they should NOT BE ALLOWED TO PORT THEIR OLD PDs. Sure EB3 can Interfile .. but you will get a new PD ... the date you interfile.
I am really sorry to say that you are totally wrong. Do you know that high demand very well paid jobs also fall into EB3 category. Example Pharmacists fall into EB3(for whom there is a very huge demand in US due to aging population) .
It is not easy to get a Pharmacist license. They need a degree in pharmacy(Equivalent to Pharm D in US) . If he/she is a foreign graduate he/she has to go through national level TSE/TOEFL, FPGEE , NAPLEX and state level Jurisprudence exams. A total of 5 exams and 1600-2000 hours of internship.Even US citizens think twice to go pharmacy colleges because it is really expensive to pay the fee.
This is just an example and this is our personal experience.

Mine too is the same. I hope we are not from the same company. I remember, I had to fight asking my employer to file the labor since they were delaying without giving any reason and they did filed a bunch of labors on the same day.
No we are not. I work for a company which has only filed two PERM since it was incorporated. Nice to know our priority date is same. Stay in touch - let's see if they approve our applications around the same time. All the best.

dont worry, the above scenario would happen only if pd remaines current.This is highly unlikely. In the next few months PD would retrogress to for instance 2004 , then you'll get your GC first :) Cheer up buddy:)
I'm looking forward to getting my GC!!! Once I get my ead and ap, I can wait for my GC patiently :)

The meeting really saddens me though. That is the extent of anyone's power to get USCIS moving? Just hinting to King that the congress is displeased?
I mean I'm pretty sure King is gonna just shrug it off. Listen to how deluded the man sounds. He thinks USCIS is doing a great job, what with all that bragging about efficiency. Obviously he doesn't realize he's standing there, in that meeting. because the efficiency he's bragging about is clearly NOT ENOUGH. In fact, it's pretty much shitty.
To make things worse, those people in there are controlling the fates of thousands of waiting applicants. And they don't even seem to know the difference btw H1 and 485.
I don't want to just go on feeding this negative train of thought. I just wish something more effective can be done. Isn't there a better solution?
IV is our best chance...Lets hope the bills Iv is pushing get some floor time. I will again say that as difficult and impossible as it may sound (given election yr n'all) IV is the only entity that we can pin our hopes on.

We have several bills that are being discussed to provide releif for all of us stuck in the Green Card process. We have very few dedicated volunteers working very hard and knocking the doors of representatives across the country seeking support for our bills. We need to lobby hard to get releif for all of us in this election year and lobbying is not cheap. We need dollars to keep up our lobbying efforts. We need help with raising dollars that are needed to keep working for our cause. We do not have Star Players and/or Star Athletes raising funds to support our cause. We need to do it ourselves. We all need to come together as a dedicated team with a mission to raise the targeted dollar amount. Can we do it?. Can we all step up and raise the dollars we need for our cause?.
Yes we can. Let's do it

I have been confused by some of the things Professor Wadhwa says -- being opposed to H1 visas and saying there are no shortages of engineers. I saw this video on Youtube which explained everything to me. He is acting like a true American -- like we should once we become citizens. He is advising America on how they can stay competetive -- like all of us want for this great country. But he is also saying that the real solution is for America to welcome immigrants as permanent residents rather than on temporary visas.
Now I understand his message -- if you want to bring in the best from all over the world, bring them here on green cards -- not H1 visas. I also read one of his interviews where he said he was concerned about how H1 workers were taken advantage of and how they lived in immigration limbo. He really does care about doing what is right for all of us.
I totally totally agree with Professor Sahib! I wish the government listens to him. What he is saying is good for everyone. As Indians we want America to succeed and prosper and we want to be a big part of the reason they prosper.
Please see this and give it a good review -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvqqYDmLgjY

Its completely conflicting. I think somebody edited it to suit themselves. There are contracdictions everywhere.

Thanks for letting us know about your friends. At least we can see that USCIS is trying to clear 2004 applicants. They will be taking care of 2005 soon then. :D
Dont mean to dampen your spirits, happy for the poster of this thread. Could have been lucky to get approved while people like me ( Sep 2003) PD waiting 485 filed 3 yrs ago.
anyway cheers -- go partying

Thanks for your thread on this Pappu, I was just about to create this thread.
So here goes the first draft:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Dear XXXX,
Thousands of SKILLED LEGAL professionals, such as Scientists, Doctors, University Professors, Engineers, MBA's, Health Care Professionals and other professionals from all over the country who have contributed billions to the US ecomony are planning to participate in an unprecedented rally in the nation's capital on Tuesday, Sept. 18th to draw the attention of US lawmakers and American public towards excessive delays and backlogs in the Employment based Immigration system.
A group of rally participants from [your state] is meeting with Senators XXX and XXX with the hope of taking their help in supporting legislative changes to the Employment based Immigration system.
This peaceful rally is being organized by Immigration Voice (http://immigrationvoice.org), a grass-roots advocacy group of high-skilled legal immigrants.
For more information, please visit the following links:

//http://www.touchdownusa.org/RallyCentral/WashingtonDCRallyPressRelease.doc
Since this is an unprecedented event from a very quiet group who have always remained in the sidelines of the recent Immigration debates, please provide visibility to this event so the plight of these law abiding, tax paying, highly educated people is spread among a larger group of people that would help drive the required legislative changes.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
State coordinators, please take up this responsibility and work with your team to get this done. I will be coordinating with the people in NH and MA. Lets fire off on all the cylinders now for the final big takeoff...

AILA (http://www.aila.org/) has an analysis of the immigration bill in an article "Top 5 Concerns Regarding Employment-Based Immigration in S. 1348":
there is a disturbing section in there:
Gaps in Green Card Availability � Immigrant visa petitions filed after May 15, 2007 on the basis of the current employment-based preference system will be rejected. � During the period between May 15, 2007 and the date the new merit based system is up and running (likely October 1, 2008), no new employment-based green card applications can be filed.
Any validity to this claim ?
If so, Does this mean that all I-485 that can be filled with the latest jump in priority date will be voided ?
Is this valid/legal ?
