    People who are getting approved. Please post your notice received dates. It will help estimate if the USCIS is going by RD. Pappu says they are following FIFO but they are approving Feb and jan 2006 cases while 2005 PD is still waiting. Maybe they are going by RD FIFO. If we know the dates of people getting approved it will help.

    My RD was July 17th....not sure if there is any trend that we can discern here...

    Speedo,
    Yes I did call the USCIS the day prior to getting the welcome email. Now if that triggered the approval or not I can't be certain.

    Lasantha, I have a similar profile like yours except for my PD will become current in May and I-485 was filed July 2nd. My question to you is that did you call the service center to inquire about your status, and that triggered approval.

    EB3-ROW PD Sep 2005
    I-140 approved in 2006
    I-485 RD 07/02/2007

    ok now we have 300!



    Precisely, members underestimate the importance of meeting lawmakers in a large scale. When we meet members of Senate and congress all over the country, not only can we get a new Bill, but our provisions could also get attached to any other Bills once they morally support us. But it will not happen if you just send chain mail, its all about building human relations with the law maker staff and make them aware of our problems. That is why family based visas and illegals, kids (DREAM) get ahead as they have the human factor apparent.
    With law makers its all about human values, empathy, compassion, etc. - like family, kids. You can forget everything about rocket science, recursion, curve fitting - it doesn't mean anything to them in terms of getting their support. It is difficult for a technical person to understand this and their point of view. It would help to get your extended family involved if you have one.
    Even today skill based immigration is not even at the forefront of population growth, as their idea about general population is a bit different and has nothing to do with IQ. that is why extra effort is needed from us.
    There has to be a continuous relation maintained with the immigration rep of the law maker.
    I have a question,
    Could you please provide how to get in touch with these political people and how to get their time and explain them? Do we get an appointment?
    Also draft of letters to provide them as a refrence?
    An Agenda when we visit them?
    If you could please provide these guidelines, we will know what all needs to be done and anybody interested would do it.

    that the current application processing range is 6-10 months after filing. Given the current economic conditions, it would be beneficial to see the application approved rather than worry about delays.

    I think the PIO Card usually comes from Delhi. But, if you go in person, you could probably get a visa on the same day. You can get the PIO Card once you return from your trip

    Since its a PD portability case, probably no PD is written on the receipt. It might be to be determined.

    I'm not sure if you can file your 485 as well - dont see a reason why not. But one thing you can do to have better sleep at night :-), is to upgrade your 140 to Premium processing. If you get it done tomorrow, you will have an answer and portability of PD by end of this month. Then you know for sure where you stand.

    we should legalize all illegals after they agree to the following

    each illegal will buy ( start making payments) a new american car
    (GM/ford or chrys)

    that will guarantee that the US economy takes off ...more jobs are created
    and everyone will be happy

    plus the illegals pay their fines in form of buying american cars

    say what

    :)

    My friend was in same situation couple of yrs ago and doctor advised not to take immunization as this will affect the pregnancy (baby). so the INS doctor mentioned this in medical form and she did the immunization after delivering baby (almost 2 yrs after filing I-485). so this is not a issue, before your I-485 approval USCIS they will send the query to put vaccination and at that time you can show that you did by showing proof of vaccination.

    Hi,

    At last, our priority dates are current.

    Now, we have to go and submit Medical Examination Results.
    My Wife is pregnant and I was told by my friends that it is not a good idea to get her immunized (vaccines) now. She might probably have taken most of them back in INDIA.

    Is there a way we can apply for I-485 and get EID's without her immunization record? (I will have mine). I am sure there are others who are in the same boat.

    Please advice.

    I have been swimming and strength training for quite some time now and have started kettle bells and Taek Won Do this year. I do see a lot of women working out. All I am saying is that these forums have a lower proportion of females.......pure statistics.
    And yes; there are a lot of females working out and the ones who do take up martial arts are more serious than the guys. However the most common excuse cited by the ones who hesitate to take up running/walking, is security. I am trying to get the ones who are not working out to get out; the ones who are; have a lot of tenacity.

    .............BTW, be nice to me. By the time you come to DC to run the race, I might have my brown belt :)

    Hi,

    My priority date is Dec 05 (EB2 India) and my case is with TSC. I got approval emails for myself and my son (we both are derivative of the I-485 application filed by my wife) two days back but my wife's I-485 application is still pending.

    Is it normal that derivative applications are approved while that of the primary applicant is pending? Should I follow-up or wait for couple of more days? Anyone in the same situation?

    Any input will be appreciated.

    Thx.

    Do not panic. I have a very good experience with CGI Houston. So far I renewed four passports at different times. They take minimum six weeks to process the passports issued in India. The latest one I sent was reached them on September 24th and I got renewed passport on Nov 9th.

    He meant that 140k Visa numbers allocated each year, out of which less number Visas are actually processed by CIS, all the unused visa numbers in the past which might be more than 300k should be used now to reduce the backlog.
    Totoro,

    CIS did not issue all those 140K visas for past sevaral years despite of the fact that there were more than 140K applications pending with them during all those years. Those visa numbers were lost and the applications accumulated over the period of time due to inefficient USCIS process.

    This is what ombudsman said about this issue and I quote

    "For example, when employment-based visas are not used during the year they are authorized, they are lost and are not available for future use without special legislation. In FY 06, over 10,000 employment-based visas were lost, even though USCIS had an estimated 100,000 to 150,000 pending applications for employment-based green cards.36 Based on USCIS use of visa numbers as of May 2007, at present consumption rates approximately 40,000 visas will be lost in FY 07 without a dramatic increase in USCIS requests of visa numbers.37 As illustrated below, since 1994 there have been over 218,000 un-recaptured employment-based visas lost due to underutilization of the employment-based visas. " end quote.

    Here's the link to all the issues raised by ombudsman in 2007 annual report.

    Many are porting to EB2 from EB3, Hope that clears some traffic @EB3. I hope USCIS will equally distribute the spill over in year or two with help of IV and lawfirms.

    I select option 2. I believe this will work out if all of us participate.
