I have noticed soft LUD's on all receipts including I140, H1B with all other receipts (485, EAD and AP) for my self and my spouse after using AC21 with H1B transfer.
Not received FP yet and did not call Service center for it.
Any clues? or any experienced the same.
Shana,
Nice to know that you started the process. Did you send the job transfer letter to USCIS along with H1B transfer or you just did H1b transfer (with plan to send the letter later).
In a way it�s nice that USCIS is tracking all applications together (H1B transfer, I140, I485 for a candidate). It atleast gives the confidence that they are tracking all together and may not get any RFE�s to give them copy of I140 or such.
Please share any updates.

From my conversations with various attorneys - this was something that USCIS could do on its own, and had intended to do for a while. It is great news for a lot of people, me personally as well!
Is there any way to verify this and get comments from an immigration attorney?

I think as a next step I will contact my Congressman after the Feb dates are released and we are still current. Do you know if it makes more sense to approach Congressman or Senator for this ? Also should I approach only 1 rep like 1 Congressman or approach both my district congressman and 2 state senators ?
We are even more screwed because since our dates are current we can not even get 2 Yr EAD or 3 yr H1 extension but you have to renew both annually.
Please share your experiences.
Getting help from a Congressman may or may not help. The only difference is that processing center is obligated to reply within a specified limit. Most likely, if dates are outside advertised processing dates, they will send standard reply that your case is pending, or if by that time there is a retrogression (and your PD is not current any more), they will simply say that your PD is not current (they also attach a copy of latest bulletin). Sometimes they wait until retrogression happens, so that they can provide a convenient reply. That's what happened on Ombudsman's intervention in my case.

Yes and any one who feels bad can take admission and complete MS. It takes 3-4 semesters any ways.
Are you referring to an 'Online' degree by any chance?! Please tell me the name of this University where you get a M.S. in 3 semesters...
Thats about 27 credits to get a Masters degree.. insteresting. No wonder they will never pass this bill into law.

How about taking out US Masters off all the queues for a while, that will as well speed up the GC process for others. :D:D
Come on guys. Just because CIR is in question for few more months people are coming up with their own agenda. I will come up with my own, how about seperate quota for the folks came in Year 2001 because we faced lot of struggles to keep the job during the bad market.

I'm sorry to hear this...Its happened...
if you really wanna bring your employer to lime light..prepare yourself..first....Remember..its your life here...anyone[including me) can give free suggestion here ....
There is no use working with this kind of Employer anymore...so my advice is switch to another employer[Good One] before you react to this...Make sure you pretend as if you are not aware of this and get the best out of him before you leave...once you r done...then show who is he to the outside world...
I'm sure you be having atleast mail proof...[If not ditch the plan of suing and move on with your next opportunity]....take some time and prepare all the possible proof...hire a good lawyer....File a case against the attorney in the local law chamber where the attorney is practising....they will definely call you to settle the case...make sure you record it as the proof[if you don't have one already ::)].....
Then hit the employer...make sure you ask a collosal sum through your attorney[Never give chances]....and then post his name and details in the Immigration blogs....
You lost one of the major milestone in your life...never give up this time....
Best of luck

Thats true..everybody are bothered about EAD and FP. I am here for more than 8 years in this country. IV should emphasise this and USICS should allow affected candidates like us to file I-485 and atleast get EAD. we have priority date earlier compared to others.
Hey thats not fair... everyone has their own problems and they are discussing... It was your luck... thats all... If you had gotten a chance to file 485 you too would be discussing about EAD and AP... I came to US in 95.., filed my first Labor in 2000... got laid off in 01... started my labor process with 2nd company... the company shut down!! filed 3rd labor in 2003... All this time the 485 was current all the way till sept 30th 2005... But I was stuck in PBEC... Labor cleared 1 week after retrogression in 2005! Finally filed in June 07... got GC 3 days after finger printing! thats life... you just do what you have to do and move on!

Per AC 21, it is soft quota - if you think about it, it is pretty simple.
In EB1, every country has 7% quota. Anything unused in EB1 ROW first goes to EB1 India and China. After that, the remaining number (say 4000) should flow to EB2. In EB2, every country has same 7% quota. Let us say 2000 is left unused. So, in all, 6000 extra visas should flow to anyone in EB2 category based on Pri dates.

mpadapa,
Thats a good analysis. As you noted EB-2 India got only 14K visas as opposed to other predictions of 30-32K visas. I have long said that the variable here is how EB1 and EB-2 ROW demand numbers. A lot of folks assumed that all the spill over will end up in the EB-2 I/C lap. It does not as long as there is no retrogression across the entire EB-2 category severely, making the old PD golden (this is not going to happen) or there is very less demand for EB1 and EB2-ROW numbers.
While I agree with your analysis, I feel that the number of employers/applicants filing for Labor/140/485 has started a downward spiral in 2008. This means lesser demand for EB1 and EB-2 ROW numbers making the numbers available to EB-2 I & C. Again, it is very well possible that there are just enough number of people from both Eb1 & EB-2 ROW categories left & entering in the system to deny the numbers to EB-2 I & C. Unless the state of the economy continues like this, shedding 600K jobs in one month, equal to number jobs in the state of Maine, we can't say that EB-2 I & C can become close to current or leap into 2007 and beyond. Then we might be current and have a GC but the economic situation would be so worse that people don't care for GC. God Forbid we have to see that and lets hope and pray that the Stimulus will resuscitate the economy

I had an infopass appointment in NY to get information on my case (specifically concerning the FP/Name check status, have received my EAD, AP). Although the officer was very courteous and seemed patient, he thought I had come there too soon for the inquiry. I got very sketchy information. He said one should wait at least 6 months after the 485 RD (mine is June 2007) before beginning inquiry (shoot me, I went a month too soon), and that it usually it takes a year (or more) after FP to get the GC, so I should not worry too much about my case for at least one more year.
He said there is nothing to worry about and that there are “many small small things” that have to be taken care of after FP and FBI name check clearance before one gets the GC. I asked him what are the other “things” that need to be taken care of following the clearance on name check, but didn’t get an answer (“just small small things” is what he said again). I had to repeat my question about the status of FBI name check on my case three times during the conversation before I got an answer which was vague anyways (nothing’s been done yet). I was hoping to get some kind of information with regards to the status in terms of the search results (no record/hit etc.) but I didn’t get any information at all, so it was a disappointing meeting for me.
Some pointers:
*Have your print out of the appointment confirmation ready before you enter the building-the security officer outside the building checks it to verify that you indeed have an appointment there.
*The queue at the entrance for security check was long, so make sure you reach there well ahead of the scheduled appointment.
*There is one more counter in the lobby (and one more queue) where you get your token number for the infopass room. They asked to see the appointment confirmation receipt here as well.
*The infopass interviews are held on the third floor. I waited for 30-35 mts. before my number was called.
P.S. Received EAD card at home address and AP documents at the law firm address.

WOW --Right from relationship between coutries tot he pros and cons of war planes we are discussing here.We have people with nice political knowledge per se Ministers and Kings who can analyze how just 11 billion (bully)dollar deal can affect the Green card processing and we have Generals and colonels who knows which fghter plane is good for which country.
But still we are able to manage only around 200 for the advocasy event and large amount of donataions which barely met the expenses. what a pity ;)
hmm...,
1). what makes you think that these kings, generals and colonel's didn't contribute to the event?
2). What's your point?? close down this forum??

My PD is years after you folks.. just wanted to wish you good luck!
Calling all EB3 INDIA applicants with a PD before October 1, 2001.
Friends we have been current since November 1st of this year. Many of us still have not heard anything about our cases. If you have this PD you have already been waiting over 7 yrs. What should we do to get USCIS's attention to look at our cases. It seems service requests are useless. They send the same old letter to everyone and thesere is no action. Whats our best options. Lets gather and look at ideas on what we can do. We know USCIS is so random.
Friends this is very imp for us. We have already suffered the most and are the most behind in dates compared to any other Category and country. We waited in pain and silence for years for our PD to become current. Now it finally is but still we see no action. Guys speak up lets try to do all we can. In this economy last thing we need is a waste of our 7 yrs of waiting and our files falling through some crack because of a random USCIS process.
Any thoughts, ideas ? whats worked for others and whats not. Will we get our green cards while we are still alive ????????
