Also, as we know the severity of the retrogation is not completely due to visa number unavailability. USCIS never used the full 140k - many years - due to the inefficiency of their process, FBI name check backlogs, may be work force shortage etc. We are beginning to see some improvements in those areas. There is an increased awareness of EB backlogs due to efforts of IV. I would say, the future is looking promising.

i would not recommend either murthy or R khanna i had a lousy exp with R Khanna and a friend of mine with murthy. I love Fragomen (my Co uses them) my last company i used Thomas Fan (based in MD) I like them both.
Fragomen is a huge firm - your experience will depend on the attorney/group dealing with your case (or company cases).
I am working in US from 99 - in three companies; and went thru partial GC process three times (once layedoff after the approval of labor; second left the company when they didnt agree to do PERM after labor is sent to PBEC; and third the current one - finally able to send 485 in July). Extended/Transferred H1b a few times. In all these cases the firm is same - Fragomen - but with different attorney's/groups. My experiences range from utter disappointment (a completely incompetent lawyer messing up relatively straight forward case and dont even correspond to explain anything) to much better (an attorney who does not mind to take calls and explain my concerns and actually sympathizes with my case and even remembers particulars). So it depends on the attorney you get.
If you are going with a lawyer on your own - you might be better off going with smaller firms. If your company has already gone with one of big law firms like Fragomen - you may not have much choice there - just deal diplomatically with the lawyer.

refering to raju123's post of the aila document text: aila says that the amendemnt S.AMDT1249 could come to the floor or could be negogiated into the final version of the bill - so there is quite a chance that this amendment could be passed - hopfully w/o any changes.
Also on another note Senator Lieberman wrote a piece in investors.com which is pro-skilled worker and pro-H1B.
http://www.investors.com/editorial/editorialcontent.asp?secid=1502&status=article&id=264986175666607
In it he says "When the Senate resumes debating comprehensive immigration reform this week, I will fight to exempt from the cap foreign nationals holding a U.S. graduate degree in any field; a non-U.S. graduate degree in science, technology, engineering or math; or medical-specialty certification based on U.S. training. Taken together, these reforms would deliver much-needed relief — and vital human capital — to our innovative industries." .
Is the senator trying to come up with another amendment ? any which way lte us hope either 1249 or a possible Lieberman amendment passes.

trouble is that labor certification is not explicitly mentioned in 406 (although that seems to be the intent). Besides, section 405 says that those with "advanced degrees" in STEM and who have been employed on NIV can directly apply for change of status subject to per-country caps .. then again there is mention of a special labor certification process for those with advanced degrees. So i think the conclusion is that while labor certification wont be done away with , there will be special handling for those with STEM degrees .. and those with 3+ years experience AND STEM degree wont be subject to per-country limits.Again, lots of ifs and buts in the whole thing .. we will have to wait and see.

Appreciate your honest feedback..but "you dont like the attitude that comes with people that speak it"..

This is an indictment of the labor certification system and not a defense of the country based quotas.
Not sure what you mean by this...
I never said I agreed with country base quotas for EB. However; lawmakers, etc. are not stupid people. We have to try to understand why they are there and why it is not being changed. We have to understand the symptoms before you can find the cure.

Major reform is "not viable in this Congress," added Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-San Jose, chairwoman of the House Judiciary subcommittee on immigration. (http://www.dailynews.com/news/ci_7437469)
There is also opposition to consider piecemeal options which treat legal immigration reform separately.
I am generally a very optimistic person but not seeing whats really viable this year.
I understand that IV is looking into other angles as well. Once again not sure.
Can IV core comment about what our realistic chances are?
Please dont answer "Join your state chapters". I am already a state chapter member.
I don't think it's possible to comment on 'realistic' chances...compred to 2008 there will be better rewards for the same amount of effort.
Because it is a election year people/politicians will focus more on "popular" bills that will draw real voters. Now they are still in 'fund raising' mode and they may have to budge a bit for the corporation monies...
To be honest with you, No matter what the chances are what the IV core will comment on this issue, it's for us to think whether there is a better option than 'not acting now'?

http://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/CISOmbudsman_RR_2_Streamlining_Employment_Based_Im migrant_Processing_USCIS_Response_04-27-06.pdf
"On April 27, 2004, the Ombudsman sent an information request to USCIS for a breakdown of data for pending employment-based applications for adjustment of status to be broken down by preference classification, priority date and country of chargeability. This request attempted to reflect similar data contained within the Immigration Annual Statistical Handbook, Chart 5, for completed cases. The Ombudsman’s interest in pending employment-based workload is in part a reflection of the broader issue relating to USCIS’ ability to support the Department of State in accurately forecasting immigrant visa requirements and the visa issuance process."
"This update will enable USCIS to identify 100% of the pending employment-based visa cases. It is anticipated that this exercise will be completed by April 28, 2006. Once this exercise is complete, USCIS will be able to extract data relating to the priority date, country of chargeability and preference classification. USCIS has already entered into discussions with the Department of State to provide this detailed information not only for pending workload but for visa regressed cases as well to allow DOS to accurately manage future visa allocations in regressed workloads."

so are we getting anything different from what the ombudsman has already requested (and received?)

Based on the wording of the visa distribution law, it does not look like the pattern change is a permanent one. The pattern might change again as per USCIS whims and fancy.
Read the part "Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit the authority of the Secretary of State to determine the procedures for the processing of immigrant visa applications or the locations where such applications will be processed."
That's was my earlier post to vldrao meant. This might be a make-shift approach to use up the visas for this year only. The predictions we are doing for next year(s) might not be true..we should just wait to see how things start rolling next month and if something is published for rule change from USCIS/DOS.
If someone has a link to this vertical to horizontal change..please post.

Congratulations to everyone whose dates have become current. To all gurus. I wanted to know as to how does it work when it comes to procesing I - 485, what dates are important is it the filing date, or the Priority date? If two people file at same time with different priority dates who gets priority, one with earlier priority date or one with earlier reciept notice date or will the cases be treated at same level.

hello ksach,
congrats on ur approval.
I saw couple of guys posting that they are getting approval emails even though their PD is not current.
what this means, is USCIS trying to clear backlog soon?
waiting for visa bulletin.
