I dont see anything which will allow us to file for 485 as soon as the labor is approved, s1932 had a point whcih would allow us to file for 485 without waiting for the priority date.
Or am I missing some thing.

Isn't that good news? Atleast we wont have to redo the medical exams if that were true.. Or do you think this is a strategic move by USCIS to be immune from any lawsuits?
Hi guys,
I have just called the USCIS. They told me that the applications will not be rejected but just put on hold until our visa numbers will be avialiable ifor the nerw FY 2008.
In addition she told me that the Nebraska office is sending back the filing receipt to the applicants which it should not affect our h1-b visa status in case we are going to travel.
For the last part I do not believe her. Is there anyone else that can confirm that ?
Thank you.

The problem is, that for all my efforts, people just don't seem to care. The only reason I had any success was the embarrassment I caused the government because of all the soldiers who were excluded. Immigrants in the US are viewed by most people as an unwanted scourge.
My employer has also been no help at all. I have been looking for work outside of the US, but unfortunately, the economic situation makes that a bit more challenging. Sorry if I sound pessimistic. That is just my personal experience.
I agree but that should not keep us away from trying. If it were not for HOPE then a lot of things would not have worked for people including the newly elected president.
I understand the frustration but at least we can use the same info and make it available to the relevant authorities. I think we will not loose anything as like last time we will be dropped again.
I am willing to contribute sometime to it. Any one else interested?

Logiclife - Me and my Attorney - had some email exchanges about all this stuff and she compliments all that IV has done and says we must educate people about advocacy
Maybe we should start with organizing some small events/seminars to spread awareness on what can be done and how important advocacy is, most people think that it does not make a difference. We could rope in local organizations

I personally got burned out trying to explain all this several times to people only to get trashed at and get strange looks back and get ignored

'Too many Cooks spoiled the broth'. If each person steering the boat paddles in a different direction, boat will go in circles.
True to certain extent but I don't know that there are too many cooks. We are all making suggestions but if there is any action based on that, we don't know. It's sorta brainstorming and some good ideas may come out of that.
If we stick to 'Don't ask what we can do for you, ask what you can do for us', we won't go far with it.
I have had other people express the same thing to me. It's about the collective group but if we cannot convince individual folks there isn't a way we can gather the group. We truly need to be proactive in recruiting people to the organization actively as opposed to being passive and saying it's fine - we will let whoever wants to join us join and whoever wants to contribute let them contribute.
I think as more number of people join this organization, the responsibility increases for the organization too. I also truly think the anonymity of the members is truly not helping and is in a way responsible for all the offensive posts in this forum. Once you attach a face and name and location to the IV handle, some of that should stop.
Also, make this a paid forum, please.

bigboy.. We need about 20 volunteers per state to pledge 200 letters each. It is achievable. But 20 volunteers is far from reality. That is our challenge.
Friends Please dont jump on me as i make these comments. I am doing my best to convince ppl as i see across to Join IV and contribute to our efforts. But i also think that every state chapter should allocate some members who only concentrate on grass root efforts but nothing else to track how many memberships and etc and those should co-ordinate with every state to see how much they can target and how much did they reach. I know this might have been thought by some others but just what i am thinking ?

We at the Tristate are having an extensive effort to follow up on ALL action items including this one.
We request all State Chapter representatives to also take this effort to their local chapters, and request/persuade your local members to call.
The Tristate members are very actively following each and every action item. We request that all states do the same.
Thank you for supporting yourself.

Guys,
We also need to make the public aware what we contribute to the society.Not only our jobs,but also how we contribute to ssn,work without unemployment benefits (when compared to citizens),how much taxes we pay,etcs tatus of h4 dependents without driving licence and with all these stress we also do our job with a smile isnt?WE DEFINITELY NEED TO OVERCOME THE PUBLIC OPINION THAT WE ARE JUST HERE TO TAKEAWAY JOBS.
Rather than mentioning it as our right,we need to make people aware of how we contribute and why we deserve a green card.;)
My 2 cents.
BTB,nice taking to u over phone WD.

I know IV is doing its best and there are other groups fighting for HR 5882.
But honestly, what are the chances for this bill to succeed this year (before election)?
100% or 75% or 50% or 25% or 0%
Ron Gotcher predicts that none of the individual bills may pass this year.
And also that EB3 I may not move forward even next year!
I am not sure how many EB3 (I) volunteers are there in IV (who are really focussed). Are they getting nothing? The prediction is that EB3 I may go back to Nov 2001 and stay there for a while (or may be for the rest of next year).
Is the efforts of EB3 (I) volunteers being exploited (indirectly, ofcourse)? What are they fighting for?

This is a public and OPEN forum,
Insulting TheOmbudsman it's just not acceptable, I though we were all H1B educated people who are open to discussion, not just a child crying and insulting as soon as someone contradicts you.
I know many people who stopped comming to this forum (contributing), they just get tired of those insults. If someone has a different opinion, is immediately insulted

Hey Risker,
It is a FACT that you/your class is more agrieved than any other possible class. But we need to be high on intellect and low on emotions. There is reason to wait till SEP. Besides although I am not sure but Labor and I-140s are for the Employers and Employees take over only in the I-485 stage. So we need to strategize instead of doing wishfull thinking. Its lot usefull if we be analytical in these threads rather than pouring out emotions.

Well it seems the idea to get a Stimulus for 2008 for people having spouses with ITIN is nearing dead end (no action). Now the government is planning another stimulus. I think we should work on taking the necessary steps to prevent the same happening this year (being dropped out). I think we should raise awareness and write to all people including President Obama.

Yes we are well aware. I would advise other members not to attack other users like PlainSpeak and gk_2000 have
Tony, I tried to send you a friendly private message. I think you must have seen it (though you are acting as if you didnt). Let us stop this score-keeping (who did what first). Let past be past. What PlainSpeak says, whether you like it or not, makes sense (well mostly; I dont understand that . part.. you guys are making me learn something), and is healthy for debate. I recommend you man up and get a bit civil, so we can all at least look good.

Admin,
How many members are currently registered on IV?
Is there a way we can reach out to them (private message/email ) to make them aware of this cause?
I can take up the initiative of sending emails requesting donations to a few if necessary.
