Atleast your lawyer replies to you:) Our lawyer stopped replying to our e-mails since after mailing the AOS package in July. They don't even entertain phone calls.

Did some one ask how come Mr.Emilio Gonzalez comes to know about this? here he comes. He broke the silent. Ok guys i guess now you got it.
Thanks Mr.Emilio Gonzalez to acknowledge this effort in USCIS website. We really appreciate that.
Hello all
I am a silent visitor of this website.
Just my 2 cents... Don't think USA is like India where you can do something forcefully. Why don't you guys understand the real problem of USCIS.
Do you think that by sending flower to USCIS will force them to make EB2/EB3 current for 2005/2006/2007 guys??
Please try to understand their problem.
Also India is the great. Why don't you guys just think that India is your home country where you are born and brought up. Why you people can't just wait and watch?? If nothing happens to the so called GC, then why don't you think to pack up and go back to India???????
My sincere request, please don't do rally, you might be arrested......you never know what they can do..... Don't you think that, it is better to go back to India rather than being embarrassed here in US???
Isn't it a shame on us to go for Rally to get GC?????:D
Just think that you will get it when time comes, otherwise pack up.
Please don't take much tension as life is very short. I am assuring you all, nothing will happen with law suit and flower campaign.Don't irritate USCIS by doing all this please.

Guys,
Thanks for your wishes. As much as I feel it as a journey I still consider myself lucky seeing so many people with PDs earlier than me both for EB2 and EB3 still languishing. We all consider FIFO to be fair and it is hard for us to decipher why it is not followed by DHS.
My suggestion to you all is that if you are told that your case is with an IO ask him or her if an email can be sent to that IO that you are concerned. This is exactly what I told Janet on Friday, one of the good CSRs from TSC. I had told her that knowing a case is with an IO is of no help to me if that IO is on vacation or is sick or is not aware that the case is current.
Also if you guys had followed my never ending streak of mails, I had mentioned that my wife had got a call from a CSR at DC probably in response to her SR that I opened or my concerned and frustrated mail to Napolitano...she was told that her case is with an IO and that since the case was transfered her Biom had not been uploaded and that she is ordering new Biom request and she should get it done...I had told her that by the time we receive it the visas may be over and also how come I am approved....moral of the story is "THEY KNOW NOTHING" as Jim Cramer used to say.
The only person I found reliable was this Ms Beck at TSC who I was fortunate to get hold of exactly 2 weeks back and she had told that we don't need new FP and Biom it just needs updating by the IT dept and she is sending a request to that effect...I had asked her how long should it take and she had told me 2 weeks..she also told me you will get your card b4 your wife.....and she may be a bit delayed but will get approved.
So guys from TSC keep trying and hope to get this Ms Beck...you can alway ask the person's batch number and name and don't waste your time if you get someone else.
All the very best and hang in there...

Interview date: February 6th
Consulate: Chennai
Case: H4 for my wife(Same firm three year extension for my H1B)
PIMS verification done by DOS on February 25th
Passport sent to VFS for delivery on February 26th
To those who did not get it yet, I suggest calling the DOS (202-663-1225) in the US and find out what is happening. They are more likely to give you better information than your lawyer or the consulate staff in India. I wish the consulate staff in India were more courteous.
Extension cases are taking longer than new petitions. Typical processing times 10-15 days. In our case it took 11 working days for verification.
To those who intend to travel to India for a new Visa stamp, call the DOS and verify that your information is in the system. Just tell them that you need to travel and would rather make sure the information is in place and then make travel arrangements. If you just have a week's vacation time be prepared for flight extensions as it takes more than a week to process the extension cases.

I think we are fighting the wrong fight. I do recognize the whole EB system is unfair and in particular to I/C/M/P.
The letter campaign is a great initiative, but I am not sure if we are focusing on the right problem. By saying that the new "interpretation of the spillover" is cruel to EB3 I/C/M/P is plain wrong. Both old and new interpretations were unfair to EB3 I/C/M/P.
Old interpretation resulted in good forward movement to EB3 ROW while EB2 crawls.
New interpretation results in good forward movement to EB2 while EB3 crawls.
How does EB3 ICMP benefit from both the interpretations?
EB3 is clogged because of the 245i cases. Unless we focus on the exact problem no amount of letters to lawmakers will not yield any result.
Writing letters to lawmakers is not going to provide any impact for this year Here is my reason it takes 3-5 weeks for the lawmakers to get the letters in DC because of special security screening requirements. By the time they receive the letters the Congress would pretty much be done with their term. The best option would be to meet with the lawmakers in their local office or in DC and appraise them of the long wait.
Please do understand that one of the reason USCIS changed their interpretation is because many folks with Ph D's and MS from ICMP where waiting for years to get GC"s and USCIS/DOS looked stupid in explaining the reason for the long wait for such folks. Even in the "visa wastage" hearing in the House immigration committee (on Apr 30) the DOS/USCIS was having trouble explaining the long wait times. One of the witness in the hearing was a PhD from China and had been waiting for years for his GC.
Come on folks. EB2 forward movement is good for EB3's, because EB2 will soon become current and the spillovers will be soon coming to EB3 after EB3 ROW is current. I am anticipating DOS will turn EB2 current in the second half of the year and this will ensure all the spillovers will flow into EB3's because EB2's with PD mid-2007 to now will not be able to clear the NC 180 day barrier. Cheer up folks and let us focus on the real problem getting more number of visa's through recapture.
If you feel strongly about the cause you should meet with your lawmakers office and address the issue. Letter campaign in not going to yield any short term impact. Please take the time to meet with your lawmakers
why are we giving so much importance to Ron. If he is so concerned about this issue why can't he take up this issue with AILA? He is a member of AILA.

You have to be kidding! Here people are crying to get there EAD's extended and you think the Govt will give us citizenship???
Please i suggest everyone to wake up and smell the coffee/chai.
If you think giving us citizenship will be easy becoz it will prop up their vote bank think again coz it will never happen. Imagine the headlines which says recession time 10M americans out of job, foreign workers to get citizenship LMAO!
Forget this ever happening in a recession time and not much of a chance in the boom time either, see how the Anti-Immi's will eat everyone up for this ridiculous suggestion, please remember we're nothing in the larger scheme of things for the decision making people, we need to understand our limitation and strengths and play by them, IV does a decent job of that.
Do think rationally before coming up with ridiculous ideas like giving senators free pizza or asking for-direct citizenship. lol.
I strongly support this thread and the message. Lets make an action plan how to pursue this.
Devils_Advocate: I know your type. But you must also understand that unless the line in front of you is cleared, you and I will go down the drain. You are talking about EAD. I dont even have that, yet I support this.
Your thinking appears narrow minded. Wake up.

A simple calc to find out how much EB3-EB2 porting going on as of today:
If you look at Demand data released last month by DOS, It lists
Prior to January 1, 2007 , EB2- I pending : 13,200
In my opinion Demand data includes EB3- EB2 porting as well since Demand data reflects overall demand for one category.
Now if you look at inventory data released on Jan 5 ,2011 ,
EB2 India Pending Prior to Jan1st 2007 : 13,516
But if you exclude all the data prior to May = 13,516 - 1,110 - 103 - 133 - 74-108 = ~ 12K
EB2 I demand from the inventory btwn May - Dec 06 = 12K
But Demand data says EB2-I demand is 13,200
Diff : 13,200 - 12K = 1200 ( This number has to be porting)
We know EB2 - I dates have not moved since Oct ,2010 .
So India regular quota for the last six months : 2800/2 = 1400 .
Since dates have not moved, I am assuming 1400 should also be considered towards porting.
so my conclusion is so far 1200 + 1400 = 2600 porting already took place. (though only 1400 really got GC)
What about the 1,194 EB2I cases pending with PD upto 12/31/2005?

It call for filling status info for ALL NON NATIVE BORN US CITIZENS
It provides 4 options ( abcd) & none of the option is applicable for 485 filers as in each case it either asks for derived citizenship or admitted permanent residents .
I hope ther is some other form
Can you all check this issue & find out the catch ?
thanks

So far they havent provided any link from LINGO.COM home page, even the link what I posted got it from my friend........we didnt know at this moment how much taxes gonna be...
It's 2 years agreement and it's killing part....
I have no idea about customer service or call quality....
If any body has exp...please share for other customers who are willing to sign will be healpfull...
Call quality: Is not good as that of Vonage. But it is ok.
Customer service: Not good
Contract is the killing part.
After tax, lingo and vonage prices are about the same.
If you haven't signed up for the service yet, sign up for vonage.

Hi,
I'd appeared for my H1B (F1 to H1) Visa interview on the 4th Jan at Mumbai. After almost 4 hours of waiting, the visa officer told me that they were unable to view/ verify my I-797 info as it was not updated in their Database. I was also told that this is an existing issue and that I should ask my company lawers to contact the Immigration Services office at DC. On being asked she told me the eta was 7-10 business days (or however long it takes for the info to get updated). I was then given the yellow slip and asked to submit my passport for stamping, after I receive an email indicating that my data is now updated. it's been 8 business days since my initial interview and I still haven't received any emails or calls.
1) anyone who interviewed on or around 4th Jan who has received a call or email?
2) Anyone who's aware of the procedure by which my company can expidite this issue (maybe through our lawyers)
3) any additional info on how long the wait might be?
I was told that on the 27th dec there were about 350 H1b pending cases (yellow slip) at the Mumbai consulate and around 150- 200 similar cases the following days. A freind of mine who appeared for his H1b interview on the 7th breezed through it with no issues.
Thanks very much!
