JSB,
You are right.....even if EB2 PD becomes current and it takes 3 years for TSC dates to move forward to our ND dates....we are not going to have approval before then. So my earlier logic that being current on the basis of PD is meaningless unless you have ND which is current.
You rightly said that there are thousands of applicants with ND prior to you and they will be handled prior to your case............unfortunate but that is true.....and ofcourse preadjudication is a myth as usual...
SoP
I dont know if i agree that ND will dictate approval. On there are several approvals with RD and ND in 2008. What explains that?

Pappu, hi!
Done.
BTW, what's with these accusations (not by you but by some other "senior members") doubting the veracity of my post?
Does a person have to have n number of posts before he is considered reliable?
Why should I fake my profile? What would I gain by it?
I am just trying to provide some data points for the tracking analysis and sheesh! the brickbats flying make me wonder if I should have posted this in the first place!
Anyways, I will try to answer any and all serious questions.
Best Regards
Fred
Are you serious that you did not know how Visa bulletins work and did not know that September Visa bulletin dates would be effective in September? You mean since 2004 you did not care about Visa bulletins and dates?

I respect the efforts done by IV for whole community to come out of this real time problem.
inthe begening people were saying something about IV updates as it appears to be false but IV proved that they were right and accurate and I think that makes community to trust IV.
I would l like to say a big time thank you to IV to make all the faces smily.
thanks,

If the authorities were really clever they should have accepted the 65000 with highest salaries instead of doing something random like a lottery. This in turn would have forced employers to raise wages to have a meaningful shot at getting a visa.
employer can very well get a new LCA with lower wage later and pay less to the employee.

First, deecha, and VZLAN you are brave men..hope you get through. When the immigration system is so arcane, you cannot blame yourselves
===============
next, I am in a similar 'somewhat out of status' position myself. i am filing for i-140/i485
I have been with the same employer since Jan 2004, and have every pay stub since then. However during some time in 2006, the company was in deep trouble, management takeover etc. and we were only paid for time spent on a major project (which was the cash cow). Because i was not directly involved in it, I was paid at about 50%, but every week, which lead my final W2 for 2006 to be around 76% of the total on the LCA. I looked at my paystubs and the total weeks at less than 100% is 5 months.
For 2004, 2005 and 2007 (on course) I am on course for my full salary. Also I got a bonus and stock options as the project took off and we are all in a better shape and my 2007 W2 should be higher.
Before 2004, I was a student on a F1 (MS degree) with one h1 in the bad days of 2002. However, my change of status was on the dot.. i.e. i got laid off on a friday and i filed my change of status to f1 the same day. My h1 visa was stamped in 2004 in India. My H1 was extended in early 2007
I am filing a self-sponsored I140. So, my question is:
1) Should I wait for 2008/whenever to file my i485 and hopefully show one year w2 and try to see if that goes through?
2) Try to convince my employer to pay me the back wages for 2006 (they may agree) in lieu of some future pay cut or paid out vacation or trade my stock options. File an amended return with a new 2006 W2 (what are the risks of an audit??)
3) Try to wait till 2008, stamp my visa extension and then file for i-485 showing only 2007 w2.
-=====-=-=-====-
Please send me your perspectives.

I have to first think of the words that I have to search for. Alisa has already picked on me that I don't even know ROW, RIR, Schedule A. This is not very useful for me.
Is there a Java Specification kind of book that I can start from begining to end? Thanks.
No one wants to pick on you...Please do not take the jabbing too seriously...We are all in this together..
Well the law code is kind of written in this fashion only...The cornell education site is better...Or just for the sake of how the numbers are devided between EB1/2/3 you can read the visa bulletin...It has a simplified breakup..
My comment about 'goobledegook' was not a criticism of your abilities...It was about the complexity of immigration code....Well you see..we all have to hire attorneys because of this complexity and no one is at fault...Am just trying to help in any way I can....

And as I said before knowing about child abuse and not notifying the cops is a bigger crime than hiring an illegal alien . In this case the child depends upon you for protection and you know about the abuse but you are considering whether to notify the cops or not !
This can come back on you itself in case someone else notifies the police ( your friend maybe ? ) The Department of Social Services is very strict in this country and I believe your child is a US citizen considering that he is only 8 months old ( most probably ).
How can you think of not getting justice for your child who cannot defend himself and not get justice himself. If he could speak believe me he would want to see the nanny in prison.

So typical of you guys. Once you lose an argument you start abusing and if the opponent is a female its more the merrier for you guys. Do you even know the basis rule of being polite with everyone in USA. So if the guy is an american you will kiss his feet. The moment the person is an indian you start abusing if it is an indian female then you have a licence to abuse
And these are the kinds of people who will get US citizenshiph

I am not trying to question the dedication of the folks here, but I have not see any plans or goals set for this year.Is this because of election year?
The site has become one more forum site to discuss personal issues and to vent out our immigration frustrations.We seem to be losing momentum on the larger effort of Visa Recapture or even looking forward for any new bills? Well even if we consider that there would be a change in white house, doesnt the senate and house still be intact with the members.
Does IV work with CompeteAmerica or any Lobbying group which could help us with direction?
Just my thoughts for the day.

This is an very very good forum that has helped to answer many of my questions, or clear myths if I might say so... Thanks to everyone who have been posting.
I had one question which I hope someone could help me with. I have a full-time job offer in a very reputed company and am in the same boat as many before me with graduation towards May end (cannot get a degree completion letter before that) and no hopes of the quota for 2009 (Master's) lasting till then. My employer can also apply for the H1 based on my undergrad because my job profile is such. I wanted to know what are the pros and cons (specifically cons) of doing so for the future legal paper-work. I know for one that I might get into the lottery scenario if the similar situation like last year happens. However, I cannot avoid that. I specifically wanted to know what could happen if I do have to change jobs in the next 3 years (and the new employer has specifically hired me based on my Master's degree). In addition, if I have the company start my GC paperwork after 1 year and I need to renew my H1 after 3 years based on my Master's degree, would I need to restart the GC process?
Any other disadvantages of applying for the undergrad quota (for a Master's student) would be welcome.
Thanks.

Hi,
I read a posts by you all on immigration voice which said U.S newspapers can easily publish a name change Ad for $70!! But I hear that they need some kind of a court order to do that...Can I ask you which paper did you advertize in India and in U.S. I have the same problem as many others -- I have only one name on my passport "Kritee" and U.S. embassy when they gave me visa made it FNU (as first name) Kritee (last name). Now I want to add a first name to my passport and all documents in U.S...and am wondering if I need to go to a U.S. court or not? All and any help will be appreciated!
Thanks.

Did you try this campaign?
Matthew Oh has posted an appeal to USCIS to make sure no visa number is wasted , in light of the grim October bulletin.
If he can make an appeal, why are we not making an effort for our own good?I still see TSC giving some approvals very slowly. NSC just sucks. I believe NSC did all this in retaliation to the faxes people sent in to complain slow processing, which were very justified faxes.
I see some accusations labelled at me about selfish EB2 motives. This is not about EB2. Even if dates are current, NSC is sleeping from last week of August. We cannot just allow them to arbitrarily close the gate whenever they want. People are allowed to file 485s till Sep 30. Consular processing applicants will go through. We, I485 pending applicants will just watch like idiots. The issue here is to make USCIS work on basis of visa bulletin, which is what they are supposed to do. Someday after say re-capture bill passes, say Eb3 is current. Then, what guarantee is there that NSC will not repeat the same fiasco?
I fully appreciate the need to direct efforts towards re-capture bill. But, this issue is equally important.
I am totally furstrated by the lack of mobilization in this direction. I request everybody to so something in the remaining 20 days.
I wrote letter to Zoe, I am going to write to more congressmen. But yes, I am also frustrated by lack of mobilization. I am strongly against sending flower compaign. USCIS does not deserve flowers. It deserves demand for resignation of every slack person in there.
Can any one of us survive in our jobs for 5 days even if we do the kind of arbitrary/inconsistent/random actions like USCIS does ?
