Ok i have to do this.
How about this?. I will trade my GC to you , would you chop one of your legs for me?.
Hey GCN007, congratulations to you. We are very happy that folks with PD<01/08/05 are getting their long-awaited approvals - India or not, IV members or not. Clearly the wait is frustrating and the relief is boundless and we are happy for those who have found that relief.
But, are extreme metaphors really necessary? I don't think anyone here will be willing to chop off body parts for green cards! :) And I don't think it will give anyone receiving them as much relief/happiness.
Congrats again and thanks for your good wishes. :)

I honestly feel there is no good way to get traction on this issue with the American government. The common masses are against immigration reform and even more so than usual right now because of the recession.
One possible solution is to really prove to the them that we have a choice. I don't know if there is a way to petition our companies to create offices in Canada. Say 1000 people at Microsoft in Seattle or Intel in Portland move to Vancouver. Canadians would love our income, sales and property taxes. And companies would truly like to save money on health benefits, while keeping employees happy and in the same timezone. Employees get green cards quickly. The only downside for the company is that employees are less tied down to their jobs.
Does this make sense?

Mine took 6 months for perm labour from Atlanta. It is all luck again how fast it will be done.
Is this EB2 or EB3? Is there a difference in the approval time if you're EB2 ROW?

Is this happening this year too - TSC is giving approvals and not NSC? Last Aug / September when my priority date was current - it was the same, i know of people who got approved from TSC whose PD were 12/05.
I knew one case that got approved last year at TSC with PD 12/2005

Hi SeekerOfPeace,
USCIS received my I-485 application on 07/02/2007, but it ignored the mail room receipt date and updated my case with 08/05/07 as the receipt date.

Yes, you will need to send the original passport along with the filled in application...Since the passport is expired for over an year, check this out:
Quote:
When should you apply for the new passport?
i) Apply for reissue of Passport if the final (F) validity is less than one year. For example, if your passport is expiring on 31st Dec. 2008, you can apply for a new passport from 1st Jan. 2008 onwards.
ii) The Passport should be renewed within one year of its expiry. If for any reason you have delayed applying for a new passport beyond one year after expiry of your passport, an affidavit stating the reason for delay sworn before a Notary or a Consular Officer should be submitted along with the application.
:/End Quote
For more info on Consular Services from Houston, goto: www.cgihouston.org
Thank you! That does help. I shall provide an affidavit.
And the link is useful too.
Now a general question : for kids of 5 or 8 year old, the application should have their 'thumb print', right? It does say "thumb print of applicant or legal guardian", but I see no value in signing for them - there's no way to identify the child if I sign there... Or am I missing something why it's better for me to sign? (There's two places for signature/thumb-print : to sign for the application, and also at the 'specimen signature' spot).

Hi,
Can anybody breakdown the PERM application process from start to finish with an approximate timeline for each portion please. This is assuming that the person is just requesting his employer to apply labor via PERM and should include the advertising period.

I mailed my passport for renewal to CGI Houston a week before it expired and it came back with a new passport in 2 weeks. I was able to talk to two people. Its very hard to get them on the phone....but yet I kept trying.
The address on the form is kind of confusing. They do not tell in the on-line application that they are expecting an Indian address and a US address unless you print it and see for yourself.

Michelle Bachman's office in DC, the congresswoman from my district. Please contact your district congressman/woman, as they will take MORE interest as you live in their constituentcy.

In addition to calling the CHC members, We may be better off in getting support from individual law makers if we target each one individually ( Law makers who have been pro legal immigration ) If 10 members call such law makers it would help them make up their minds and show support for these bills
Just my 2 cents.

Dilip,
You are smart. Pappu will continue to work on H1-B, even after receiving EAD.
It was pappu who said that 'Working on EAD is one-way street".
So, you will get your training and still don't have to pay penny unless pappu accepts cash.
--sri
Folks if you want to know how to handle an interview... learn it from Pappu!! He was smooth (read slippery) as... soap?... hell anything that is smooth :)
Pappu... any training you can give me? :eek:
I may even be able to pay you... once you get your EAD! :)

my name was not interview with my family.
my family gave interview and embassy asked for original I140 and I824 approval notices to check my eligibility.
i submitted and now after 2 weaks got the follwing reply:
In your case , the I-140 was filed on sept 10, 2001 and approved on october 08, 2003. The visa became available on october 08, 2003 . Form I-824 was not filed within one year of visa became available. <my name> was born on January 03, 1986. because he (me) is above 21 years old an immigrant visa as a derivative beneficiary of Employment third prefrence (e3) immigrant visa category cannot be inssued to <my name>. In order to qualify for a visa, he (me) would need to benifit from CSPA. Since form I-824 was not filed within one year of visa becoming available on October 08, 2003.
<my name> cannot be processed under CSPA.
SO plz help me with right advice and solution so that i can travel with my family.
my mom and bro got te visa and it will expire in 6 monts and i want to go with them, can i be able to get visa in any case before their visa expire?
i badly need help.
Hi
Seems your only option is to sue. There are acoup,le of cpsa cases that even though they did not file within one year of visa approval because the alien sought legal advise, the benefit was granted
This cspa is sooooooooooo badly written and must be amended, still waiting on my cspa court case !
The other side has agreed with 90% of my case so just have to supply the other 10% proof

Various reasons...time...schedule...other obligations etc...lack of readily available information on IV as an organisation or state chapter....too many steps to do simple things like joining the state chapter :)
ya some of the reasons seem ridiculous...
like the example of the weekly attorney call
Many like me don't have the time to search through forums as to what the number is for the call or where is the link for the chat. If its displayed on the main page "Click here to join attorney call" that would be so much easier and encourage a lot more participation.
No member has to search for the lawyer conference call thread in the forums section at all. They just have to read the threads running on the home page!. Every week that we have the conference call, the thread runs with the red title "Free Conference Call on -date- -Lawyer name- frm -firm name", and it is mostly me who keeps the thread alive from Monday through Thursday! I have even started a thread on the Ask the lawyer section announcing this and I kept the thread on the home page until the third week of this month - when we had the last call for the month of March. I have not kept it up on the home page with all the advocacy activities we are involved in - but I would think that the members who benefited from the calls would want to help by keeping it up on the home page...........but that does not happen either (although wait_for_ever_gc and SGP tried for a few weeks).
This is exactly what I mean when I say "frustration" - The services are clear on the title and runs on the home page every week. Yet members say, I can't find it!
I have had people PM me and ask how do I post on IV - I point them to the thread that tells them to do it - we do have it as a sticky, for easy visibility if members take the time of doing a little search. I have had members call me and ask how do I post, I have explained it to them while on the call. There is only one ph# available to reach IV - and I have answered everyone of the calls for which members have needed help.
ok i managed to find it...but its not easy to find...the average person visiting this site will never know about it. This is a cool benefit...it should be advertised on the site more so people can take advantage. It will certainly generate more interest in IV
Right here, members should realize, IV is not here to market stuff or make money. IV is about services and working together to bring the relief needed for our immigrant community. Does IV need the money? Absolutely - for advocacy. Not just the 3 day advocacy event but the year round advocacy that needs to happen to get anything done.
IV has a donor forum, and it has made a policy that to be able to get access to it, members need to donate. It is not a mandatory service but an option of choice for each of the members. Without making any monetary payments mandatory, IV members (some) have issues with it. I cannot imagine the uproar and backlash that will come, if IV decides to impose even a $2 mandatory fees. People will find fault with that too......... And if there is one thing we have realized, we can't please everyone. IV leaves the option of donating as a choice to our members rather than a mandatory imposition of fees.
I will say this though, Aman is a good friend of mine, and he himself being in EB3, waited for many years to get his GC. Before he got his GC, he too was frustrated with the system and came up with this organization - over a conference call - to find solutions to make this GC process better. This was in end of 2005. He got his GC in the recent past in EB3, and yet here he is fighting for the cause of the people who are still stuck in the backlogs! He has a full time job, a family (who is sacrificing a lot because he is so involved in finishing what he started, a time that he could have spent at home), and he works harder than anyone I know for your Green Card relief. There are very few dedicated people behind IV, and Aman is the very back bone of this organization.
Members write about IV being for EB2? How? Members write about how IV does not understand the pain of an EB3.. Really? Aman and Pappu and other team members are all in EB3......some still without a GC......waiting just like you! This organization was built on EB3 pain and it continues to exist because of the dedication of few leaders to see this through. A lot of people got greened in 2010 - where are they? Some visit, some even donate regularly, some even participate/volunteer for the advocacy days in DC. But the large majority left. If Aman decided to leave after he got his GC, each of you would have found another online place to go to, but what you may not realize is, had he done that, there would be 1 less dedicated, passionate voice fighting for your speedy Green Card!
The other day, a member since 2007 - does not know what the goals of this organization is! Even my child knows - that to find out about any organization - just go to the "About Us" section. Four main menus to explore - "Home", "Forums", "Wiki", "Advocacy" - you will find everything you need to know about IV.
Members don't want to see what is in front of them (Free lawyer conference call on home page)
Members don't want to explore a little bit about this forums - (Take 10 minutes of your time when you visit IV to look up on Advocacy, on Wiki) - to get the info needed.
Members don't want to participate in anything - like I said - IV has this action item of meeting with lawmakers - and the response is "I can't, as I have a busy schedule, other commitments......" All I am asking for is an hour off from work to meet with lawmakers in a month. 1 hour in a month!
Members ask what has IV done for me? I won't even say 'Ask what have you done for IV" - instead I will say, "Ask what have you done about your own green card other than wait."
A member thought Pappu's post was "arrogance". But does this member know that Pappu is the one who handles these difficult issues - researching what the problem is and then suggesting the next steps or contacting the right officials to get the answers for these needy members. IV does not charge for this time and service. But he hopes that this member will donate. And he has rarely found these very members coming back to donate to IV. And that to me is "frustration".
You may want to believe what I am saying or not - the choice is yours. But I will ask this of each of you - if you have something negative to say about IV or don't know what IV is working on - just pick up the phone, call and ask. Before you criticize the hard work of people, take the time to get your facts right and then do what you feel is right.
BTW, all "you" mentioned here is every member and not directed to one person. And check out my signature - finding your state chapter and becoming a member is easy. I have had this for over a year now.

Hi Guys,
Need some advice regarding two stocks.
1) USO -- ETF for crude Oil. It is at about $29.00 but alst year in July it was about 120. IS it a good investment bet. I know I might have to hold it till summer of 2010.
2) HNSN -- Biomedical device maker. It is the next ISRG, as the reports indicate. They make the sensie robotic cartherer devices. No one else in the world does that. What do you guys think of this ? It is now at $4.50, at its peak it was about $37.00
Thanks for all the input.

USO is a typical criude ETF like AIG Crude - SCO etc .....HSNS is another medical Miracle company ....can pull rabbits outta hats (But hey this is a day traders analysis ....Not an investors)
My investor side says there are other better(safer) longs for your money that this one.
