Hope you had a nice vacation. :p
Couldn't resist. Please follow the FOIA thread that is in red.
10,000 was collected and 2500$ advance was sent out to USCIS. Now we wait to hear back from them.
there was a rencent drive undertaken by IV which involved getting a list from USCIS (or some other authority) about where the visa #s are being used, right ?
Perhaps something to do with collecting money from the requstor..
Basically, USCIS sent letters to a few folks asking them to pay 5000$ or so to get the list as it involved some programming ?
Where is that ? does anyone know ?
the visa bulletin is just ...what do you say....

...who said that they are from non-IT field , it suggests that more than 90% affected are from IT and EB2 ? I want to see hard numbers....
I am not sure what you are going to achieve with the field type. You have to consider some inherent facts about the Employment Based immigration...
1) Most (not all) applications are from India
2) Most (not all) applicants from India are in IT field
3) Most applicants, in general, are filing EB2.
If you consider all these facts, it becomes apparent that IT/EB2/India is not something they are purposely focusing on, it just happens to be that way. If you want more information on this data, I suggest you check out '' that shows Country and EB type by each user and whether they got audited or not.
I dont think we necessarily need people to describe their field for the initiative we plan to take against late audit responses.

My understanding is that local office would not open a service request. But they could request interim EAD. Since they no longer produce it locally they have to request some service center to issue one.

This is what I call "tailoring message to our own needs". Lets take your example and I will do the same for you.
USCIS certainly has a report by RD and lets say they are providing that report to the congress or the Senate. What would you see in the report ? There will be applications backlogged for years especially EB3 I. Just in my case, the 485 has been pending for more than 6 years. Anyone who wants to look in to the performance of an organization would want to know how well they are doing and USCIS has to show that they have applications backlogged for more than 6 years and cannot process them because of the unavailability of the visa numbers. Would that look good on them ?
All big companies use both EB2 and EB3. We cannot justify one over the other with-out understanding the data. Again as far my understanding goes, I believe Bill Gates is a big proponent of H1Bs than getting his employees permanent residency.
I beleive you are selectively highlighting facts. Forgive me if I am wrong but there are two issues here
1) Applications Pending by PD
2) Applications Pending by Category (EB 2 & EB3)
Now yes I agree a congress man can ask like how come I see Eb3 app from 2001 pending with you since 2001. Which means 8+ years. With Spillover to Eb3 the dates max go to 2002 so the question would be app pending for 7+ years
With moving EB2 they can least claim that they have moved an entire category to current. Is that right or wrong is entirely a personal question but it is a valid argument from their side. Also look at it this way Eb1 I & Eb2 I currently have a gap of 4 years. and EB2 & Eb3 have a gap of 4 years as well.

I was under impression that being on H1b u cannot do intra-day trading.. you can do only routine trading (don't know exact term) in which u buy stock and keep it for some time and sell it .. generally 3-4 days..
while on H1-B status, one can do intra day trading in stocks, options, and/or futures, he/she can NOT claim trader status on federal tax return. Person on EAD can claim trader status and claim some trading related expenses to save tax on it.

Chronography of facts
EB was current from AUGUST 1999 until April 2000.
This warning was issued in the March 2000 VB:
VISA AVAILABILITY FOR APRIL(2000)
�Demand for immigrant visa numbers by INS for AOS cases in all categories, continues to be steady but has not reached the level requiring action at this time. It is anticipated that INS demand for numbers will require the establishment of visa cut-off dates for April in some or all of the CHINA-mainland born and INDIA Employment categories�.
In May 2000. EB2 was retrogressed to 01JUL97 for China and 01APR99 for India
In December 2000 VB the big announcement came:
Greater availability of EB immigrant visas: On October 17th, the President signed P.L. 106-313. Title I of this law is known as the "American Competitiveness in the Twenty-first Century Act of 2000" and contains amendments to the INA regarding EB immigrant visas.
In fiscal years 1999 and 2000, due in part to the per-country limits, the annual limit for EB immigrant visas was not reached. P.L. 106-313 makes the following changes in an attempt to rectify the situation with regard to per-country limits:
Section 106 recaptures those EB visa numbers that were available but not used in fiscal years 1999 and 2000, creating a "pool" of approximately 130,000 numbers. These numbers could be made available to applicants in the EB1, EB2 and EB3 preference categories beginning in fiscal year 2001.
Section 104 removes the per-country limit in instances where the overall applicant demand for EB visas is less than the numbers available without regard to those limits. This determination will be made quarterly, based on a comparison of the overall demand versus the available numbers. If the total number of available EB visas is greater than the number of qualified applicants who may otherwise be issued such visas (during the same period), the per-country limitations on EB visas will be lifted for the remainder of that quarter.
In May 2001 EB2 became current again for both India and China.
July 2001 VB:
EMPLOYMENT-BASED PREFERENCE CATEGORIES:
All categories have become "Current" for July, and are expected to remain so for the remainder of FY-2001. The cut-off date movement in all oversubscribed categories has been extremely rapid during the past year. This is because the FY-2001 limit is approximately 50,000 higher than normal, and legislative changes removed the per-country limitation if there are otherwise unused EB numbers available.
All categories are expected to remain "Current" for the foreseeable future.
January 2005 VB
OVERSUBSCRIPTION OF EB3 FOR CHINA, INDIA, AND THE PHILPPINES
June 2005 VB
EMPLOYMENT VISA AVAILABILITY DURING THE REMAINDER OF FY-2005
During the past month there has been a significant increase in the amount of numbers being used by CIS offices for AOS applicants. This level of demand has significantly depleted the supply of EB numbers available under the annual limit. Recent discussions with CIS have made it clear that their backlog reduction efforts will sustain or increase the current level of demand. Therefore, continued visa availability in the EB categories cannot be guaranteed during the final quarter of FY-2005. If demand continues at the current rate, it will be necessary to oversubscribe many or all of the EB categories on a Worldwide basis. Such oversubscription could result in the establishment of cut-off dates, retrogression of already established dates, or some categories becoming �unavailable�.
July 2005 VB
EMPLOYMENT VISA AVAILABILITY FOR JULY AND THE REMAINDER OF FY-2005
EB3 and Third Other Worker categories have reached their annual limits and no further FY-2005 allocations are possible for the period July through September.
September 2005 VB
EMPLOYMENT VISA AVAILABILITY DURING FY-2006
The backlog reduction efforts of both CIS, and the DOL continue to result in very heavy demand for EB numbers. It is anticipated that the amount of such cases will be sufficient to use all available numbers in many categories. As a result cut-off dates in the EB3 category will apply to the China, India, and Philippines chargeabilities beginning in October, and it is possible that Mexico may be added to this list. In addition, it is anticipated that heavy demand will require the establishment of a EB3 cut-off date on a Worldwide basis by December.
The amount of Employment demand for applicants from China and India is also likely to result in the oversubcription of the EB1 and B2 categories for those chargeability areas. The establishment of such cut-off dates is expected to occur no later than December.
The level of demand in the Employment categories is expected to be far in excess of the annual limits, and once established, cut-off date movements are likely to be slow.
October 2005 VB:
EMPLOYMENT PREFERENCE VISA AVAILABILTIY
Item D in the September VB announcing the September cut-off dates provided information regarding the prospects of visa availability during the early months of FY-2006. Many categories have become oversubscribed for October, and cut-off dates established due to continued heavy demand for numbers by CIS for adjustment of status cases. Forward movement of the cut-off dates in these categories is likely to be limited.

Have a nice weekend.

Of course the plan is not to imitate what Canada has directly, I'm sure the current job offer would have a big role, it does in canada too to a certain extent.
Also the EB queue needs to be considered while moving to the skill based one.
"Also the EB queue needs to be considered while moving to the skill based one" - I don't know what you meant by this line but I am in no mood to restart my GC application (for which I have been waiting for the past 9 years) just because some genius (whoever that person was) woke up one morning and decided that all the applications need to be reformed into a points based system.

All,
I have created a letter template (linked below), I have a couple questions that I have put in the comments so you guys can provide some input.
I am going to create another template that you can use to fill in your name and other related information (naidu2543 brought up a good point and I am somewhat skeptical on adding the case number. Admins, any input?). I think we should all have hand-written signature (not typed) in that letter.
I am going to provide a fax number and email address, where each one of you can send the signed sheet.
I think there should be a benchmark for the signature, before we can send it out. From the polls, I see 69 people said that they would support the initiative, I think its reasonable to expect at least 65 people will send their signatures, before we can send the letter out.

Here are few sentences from Senator kennedy's concession speach at 1980 Democratic convention in New York
[B]For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die.[B]
You can hear the speech at http://www.historyplace.com/speeches/tedkennedy.htm
So guys dont get depressed, As long as people like senator kennedy / Mccain are in senate I have hope.
God bless America.
Yes, the dream shall never die. We all know that we will get our GCs eventually. But sooner will be so different from later. There will be no point if we get our GCs 10 year later. How many 10 years do we still have? Can we imagine our lives without this GCs for another 10 years? Not even 5 years!
I start to feel that my US dream is so stupid.

Makes sense, like the idea of abolishing the waiting period for GC.... but with all due respect i belive that will never happen esp in a post 911 era where there is a lot of checks. I belive if they put the name check process in a fast track it would be benificial. Suks that we have to wait another 5 years after getting GC to get Citizenship, if anything i would think counting 5 years after 485 is logical.
I think we should not talk about abolisihing waiting time for citizesnhip (after GC) and no one as I see talking that.
Most of us are talking about REDUCING waiting time for Employment based GC holder, who is already here for several years.
Most practical thing might be to make it Similar to Marriage based Citizenship where you just have to wait for 3 yrs after GC.
So we can Request for reducing citizenship waiting period from 5 to 3 years for employment based GC holders who had paid atleast 5 years in the Federal taxes ( to preserve orignal intent of 5 year for family based GC holders waiting period for citizenship) , Have MS or Higher degree in STEM field ( Last time they tried to reduce one year for any one who can study and learn english) , Can pass Background Check and Moral Standards ( that is must for security purpose).

Dear Friend
I know you are very BUSY. But I want your TWO minutes to REGISTER at the Following website as member.
http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php
This is very important organization working for your and mine benefit. This is group of people like you and me who are leading fight for immigration reform for highly skilled immigrants who have high skill jobs or have U.S. master or higher degree.
As you might be knowing currently there is backlog for green cards. Unless some rules are modified you and me will not get green card in next five years. Specifically it is much serious condition for people from India, China, Philippines and Several such other countries. As they send lot of highly skilled immigrants and each country have fixed quota for employment based green card.
I know some of you have not yet started working on your green cards. But when you will start, you will realize that it is like doing another master or Ph.D. !!
Above group is formed by people who came here on student or H-1B visa. They are trying to fight for immigration reform for highly skilled immigrants. When you read or listen any thing about immigration you listen only about undocumented or illegal immigrants. No one talks about improving immigration situation for employment based highly skilled immigrants. Those very few from the business group who talks about highly skilled, are only interested in increasing H-1B, so that they can get more educated employees. But if you work on H-1 you will know H-1B has several limitation like inability to change employer, spouse can not work etc. So it is very important to get Green Card as early as you can, if you are on student or H-1b visa.
In current situation even if you are wise and quick enough to decide to act quickly for green card, you can not do any thing except sending papers to USCIS ( INS) and paying their fee and wait endless till you get frustrated and depressed. If you are waiting for your green card you already know it. If you have not you will know it soon. Green card is almost invisible for Highly skilled immigrants from India, China, Philippines and several other countries residents, because of backlogs, country quotas, FBI name check delays, Labor Certification delays and backlogs etc. (Some of these words may be new to you. )
Employment based green card for highly skilled immigrant fall in EB-1, EB-2 and Eb-3 categories. Even if you have PhD and university job , you do not qualify for EB-1.
and that is only open category. For Eb-1 you need tenure track appointment at University with several years of experience, around 20 research papers and several international awards etc. Those who apply for Eb-2 or EB-3 or NIW ( national interest Wavier) should not hope for green card in next five years under current situation
This excellent group of people comprising of many bright people from India, China and many other countries around world, is very active in Washington D.C to change the above situation in our favor. Though it was formed in 2006 only it has around 10,000 members. All of them are fighting for our green card.
I urge you to take look at their website. I am sure you will be impressed by the work they have done in last one year for highly skilled immigrants. They have already established strong political contacts and are using lobbyist to pursuer changes in laws in our favor. This is right time for you to get involved with your future green card process by supporting this organization so that they become successful in their mission.
Before you go through their entire website, I want all of you to register just as a member. So that they can increase the strength of organization. You all might be knowing that In Washington D.C every thing works based on two numbers, votes and economical. That is why when you listen any thing about immigration you always listen about illegal immigrants, because they are in large numbers and are related to several others who are potential voters. Business group also favors them because of economical reasons.
So this organization of Highly skilled immigrants also need your support as member, to show law makers that it represent several thousand highly skilled immigrants.
(we don�t need to be in millions !!) So before you go through their entire website just register as member. It will not take more than a minute.
I also want you to visit this web site regularly, so that you are aware of what is going on in Washington DC in your favor or against, in reference to your future green card or US citizenship. I visit this web site ten times a day. They give minute by minute picture of the show in Washington DC when it is Hot. Also you need to be part of their email, meet the law maker and other activities as per your time convenience.
Let me add they are doing all the LEGAL activity which is fully permitted under US immigration Laws. Still if you have any doubt you can call them to clear your doubt.
Also they need what ever financial support you can do to them. I am also the financial supporter for them. I have contributed few hundred dollars and registered as monthly contributor. I want them to succeed for my, your and future highly skilled immigrants benefit. Remember they are fighting for our green card, which will give us several more rights compare to our current immigration status. It is better to contribute to them rather than paying several thousand dollars to the lawyers. Lawyers just fill forms (you need to check that three times before submitting !!!) and never promise to get you anything. This organization, I am sure with your, mine and other members support will get lot of work done in Washigton D C. So that probably you will not need lawyer for your green card application, and it will become very easy for you to file for Green Card. They had done lot more than what they promised. You can dig in to their website for making your self educated about there fascinating work. Let me add the core team which run this volunteer organization has spent several thousand dollars from their pocket to make this attempt successful, They are that much committed to success and final goals of organization.

Okay, now members of this forum are financial advisers as well. Does Day Trading help you get Green Card. If no, what is this baseless, senseless and unrelated post doing here ? Don't tell people what to do with their money, nobody cares what you think.
Dude, the thread says "People interested in Trading Stocks ETFs "..if u don't care then why even bother reading it..there are other threads that talk abt GC..look at those..
