"Though we still have challenges to overcome, USCIS is currently showing improvements as a result of process improvements. As of April 25, 2008, USCIS had adjudicated over 65 percent of its FY 2008 target for employment-based visas. With five months to go in FY 2008, this is a strong start. We plan to continue implementing process improvements and new reporting mechanisms for managing these important applications. "
It means they have used 90K Visa out of 140-150K ..it means 50K visa left for next 5 month..not sure how much visa dates wlll be moved.
For calculation purpose, I think they used up 140,000 * 85% * 65% = 77,000 (approx). Look at page 3 (last but one para) "According to DOS, applicants for adjustment of status currently account for 25% of annual family-based visa allocations and 85% of annual employment-based visa allocations."

you will be better off trying one of the nationalized banks....PVT banks are all jazz...
I have a NRI HL from vijaya bank..
HDFC is good...
ICICI..<--not a big fan!
I'm looking for homeloan options in India. Which bank would be good to apply for home loans.
Was thinking about ICICI bank but got scared after going through the other thread about how ICICI bank is into stealing.
I would appreciate it if anyone can give me few suggestions on this.
Thank you.

1. Another reply was If we use All permitted unsed visa, Where would we be in terms of EB visa. His response was Probably china/India Second category will be clear.
2. According to Him 65% of visa has been used for this year. less amount of visa remain now for this year. We shouldn't expect miracle for this year at least.
3. Let Join hands together and follow the HSMP people did in UK.

I do not support this donor ONLY idea.
Also, Day 1, the FOIA initiative had a goal of $5K.
And without reason, the goal was increased to $10K.
So, pappu should not complain of not reaching the goal when he keeps increasing the goal.
stay consistent.

I am a bit curious. How did you manage to stay in same company for 7 years. Or did you do labor transfer or changed company using EAD/AP.
Surprisingly, I have been with my employer since 2000. With all the economic issues going on in 2000/2001 it took us 2 years to file my labor.

Hi,
USCIS online status showed that my Approved AP was mailed on Jan 8, 2008. Looking that I bought ticket for travel on January 29, 2008 but untill today I or my attorney did not get the approval letter yet. I am under very mental pressure whether I will get it by Jan 29 or not. If I have to change my travel plan there will be huge cost involved as I have to change four tickets.
Do any of gurus have any idea what should I do ? My attorney is not helping me. In my area (Washington) no infopass appointment available before Jan 29. Do you think walk in into the local office will help me even if I dont have any appintment ?

I have filed I-129 and I-539 at VSC (RD 7/16/07) and also concurrently file I-140 + 485 at NSC on 7/2/07 (No Checks cashed yet). My H1 and spouse's H4 expires on 9/30/07. And so does our DL.
I called the PA DoT and they said that they need the following documentation for the DL renewal:
H1B & H4 Visa
Passport
I-94
Visa
Proof of employment (For H1 only)
2 Proofs of residency (For H1 only)
Rejection letter from SS Office (for H4 only)
They will not accept a Receipt Notice. They also said that if the Visa wasn’t valid for more than a year, they will not renew DL. I don’t know if they will accept a Visa stamp on the passport or approval of I-129 & I-539 will suffice.
From your experience, at this time, if we apply for PP, will they process my spouse's application along with mine, so both approvals come around the same time? Please advise.

I have not raised anything yet. We do have a number of members ready to support. We are getting there. People, please come forward. Lets get this thing going.
Send me a PM if you are not sure about posting on the forums here.
GCTest and et al if you have really raised 600 $ talk to good lawyer to sure the hell out of USCIS for its un accountability. This EB3 - EB3 rift is not going to help anyone but only USCIS. Take a chill pill and think carefully who has screwed us most -- IT IS USCIS. If you sue USCIS for unaccountability, changing rules at will and worst of all racial discrimination or new term for country based discrimination -- it is history waiting to happen.
There is no value or point in creating Eb3 - Eb2 rift. No category is better than either - all are equally and royally screwed by USCIS.

This topic was already discussed. Whoever opposing PD porting is confused between law and abuse. As per law, PD porting is 100% valid and legal, one can do nothing to challange the law. A janitor can become a rocket scientist and port PD from EB3 to EB1. One cannot stop it. PD is the date one has officially shown the intend to immigrate and put up in the line. He/She will take the priority/ senioirty if he/she changes the catagory.
However, people (particularly in consulting/desi/ IT/bodyshopping industries) may be abusing it by creating duplicate job just to port from EB3 to EB2. If any one has evidence/details about it, inform the USCIS/DOL to cutail those employers. You can also explain them that if a same employer files 2 140(or LC) for a same person for a same/similar occupation classification, it should be stopped. Perhaps CIS and DOL listen to you guys. All other efforts will be waste. Even if they act on your request (one employer for one 140), people will find another bodyshoppers to file Eb2 petition.

Sorry for being ignorant. How can we determine LUD (last update date) and what is meant my soft LUD ?

Diamonds are forever, just say Diamonds - that will shut her up.
The EB-GC is like the diamond for us buddies, it will sure shut us up.
We already have lost a decade of our lives in this grinding be it another, ain't got anything better to do.

From reader "MA", the blog TalkingPointsMemo.com -he's referring to the slowdown in criminal cases at the USA office in SF, not immigration. But interesting, nonetheless:
Your post . . . about the slowdown in cases in San Francisco got me thinking about the larger bureaucratic issue associated with more than half a dozen years under Bush.
This is a relatively trivial incident, but a while back I attempted to get my passport renewed and discovered the wait times had doubled (partly because of the new rule requiring travelers to Canada to have passports) -- trivial, yes, but it also highlights some of the more mundane effects of an administration run by people who have a fundamental antipathy toward government service and government programs.
This gets writ large in the case of incidents like Hurricane Katrina, the prosecution of the Iraq war and so on...but it also gets writ small in thousands of details of everyday bureaucratic life -- especially as the Bush influence trickles down through the bureaucracy from political appointees to career employees.
If the governing Bush/Cheney philosophy is that the public sector doesn't work, that it is inherently not just inefficient and corrupt, but antagonistic to citizens and individuals, this philosophy has a way of slithering its way into the workings of the system itself -- not just in the case of high profile corruption scandals, but also, again on a more mundane level, in the day-to-day operation of government bureaucracies.
And here's the weird thing, even though that sounds so unexciting, there's something almost stifling about imagining a bureaucracy that really is antagonistic to individuals -- one that not only slows down, but finds some vindication in throwing up road blocks, thwarting citizen requests, and, in the end, not serving the public. I have family members who lived in former communist countries -- and that's really how the bureaucracy was there, and life under those circumstances was made much more difficult, bureaucratic responsibilities increasingly cumbersome, much of the time the system just didn't work, and had to be gamed (or bribed).
Although I have large scale concerns about Bush's handling of the war, the economy, and so on, I also have some more micro scale concerns about what his philosophy of governance means for everyday life and our everyday interactions with the bureaucracy. Indeed, this scale, though more mundane, is also the one that in some ways affects the majority of the population more directly, even if much less dramatically. I've lived in places where the bureaucracy functions quite well, and where citizens take a certain pride in the fact that the government serves them.
The idea of living in a country where the administration's goal is to demonstrate just how bad government is/can be scares me at this very prosaic level -- I want my schools and courts and inspection agencies and passport agencies and so on to be run by people who really believe in government service and in the fact that the government can work effectively to serve the populace. Bush seems to be doing everything he can to dismantle such a world -- and he risks fueling a vicious circle in so doing

IV core leadership has to change and so is the stratergy. Current Lobbying efforts have clearly not worked out. I call for elections to elect the new core team. All these conference calls and inaction is just wastage of time and things are getting worse. We need an aggressive stratergy and may need to take names and hit people openly to get our agenda pushed. IV leadership clearly lacks these skills.

Repenting that i miised the chance, and should have applied at that time.
Even if you had applied then when single, no difference my friend.
One still needs to retain the H1 so their dependants could have the H4. So, until the dates open up again there is no end in sight for the other benefits such as EAD etc.
If it is any solace, you actually did not miss the boat!

Visa Bulletin suggests that severe cut-off date retrogressions are likely to occur early in FY 2008, which starts on October 1, 2007.
So we still have some time on our side.
Hope will keep us alive!!
