I mailed my passport about 3 weeks back to SFO. Have not yet got it. Anybody done it recently?
I think you should get in another week. I submitted my passport in Oct and got it in exactly 4 weeks

This has been the regular way... CPO e-mail first and then an e-mail saying "... we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status."
I got my Card Production ordered email yesterday at 9:00 PM and now at 7:20 AM I get mail saying I have been registered at permenent resident. So looks like the department that registers GC is slower than the guys who print the actual card. Has any one else seen this kind of reverse order of mails?

Thanks for correcting me :) yes the Antibody titer test
And yes both me and my wife got it done. In fact my wife just got this done today.
Thank you sanan, I guess you meant Antibody titer test (immunization test)
So what you are saying is, if one does not has the Vaccination record, concern DR would do this immunization (Antibody titer) test in place of vaccination record and can you confirm that you have gone thru exact scenario ?

Can some one raise the curtain from Barmuda Triangle!
I can see SA 187 passed in Senate and it has text under section VI
The similar text can be also seen in SA 180 but its status is unknown

Every member who is discussing this thread and thinks this bill has a chance, schedule a meetign with your lawmaker today so that you can discuss OVERALL IV provisions and get a specific response on whether they will support, co-sponsor and vote for this bill. That will give us a direct answer instead of us speculating on the thread for months together.
If we get 40-50 lawmaker meetings scheduled over the next 3-5 weeks, that itself will provide us with enough feedback to decide whether this bill is worth it or not.
The point I am trying to make is that IV core is here to guide us and support us with national level advocacy. Nothing is going to happen in Congress until the grass roots efforts pushes congressmen/congresswomen/senators to think about a bill. Us sitting here and requesting IV to take up a cause (without any grassroots effort to back it up) is NOT going to help.
Its only after meeting a lawmaker that we realize how Congress works. No one is waiting to fight our cause...we have to push for it and use the IV platform.
So the plan can be -
1) everyone here who is positive about this bill..schedule a lawmaker meeting. I volunteer to coordinate the list of lawmaker meetings scheduled.
2) create a googlegroup with list of people working on the initiative. Keep track of feedback from each meeting.
3) WIth the feedback from the 40-50 meetings, we will know if this bill has any steam. Even if not, we will at least have established a rapport with local lawmaker offices which can be used for other piecemeal legislations that come up.
4) Keep the list of lawmaker meeting volunteers open and growing so that we will eventually have a large group of grass-roots volunteers regularly working on lawmaker meetings. These folks can keep track of legislations (through the forum, coordinator) and immediately schedule grass-roots advocacy/meetings when needed.
We have to create a culture and a habit within the EB community of regularly meeting with lawmakers so that every one of our local lawmaker offices has our issues on their fingertips (even if they oppose us). merely coming to a forum and requesting iv core to do all they can, the day before a bill is to come to vote, is (for lack of other terms) plain stupid.

you can also set auto-payment from your bank account/ credit union account. I did that through Digital Federal Credit Union.
when i tried to setup a recurring payment I got the following message.
Accounts with limited access may not send money !
I've used my paypal account to make one time payment to IV before but never had any issue. Is this a paypal error/issue?..could i be doing something wrong ? is there any other way to make a payment ?

Perhaps we can refer USCIS to some of the rogue lawyers we deal on a daily basis. They will have to talk to the lawyer's paralegal, get an appointment to talk to the lawyer after 48 hours and get a lousy half ass written response prepared and that too a week late.

Do you realize that we are talking about USCIS here, the most inefficient department in US? If I were you, I wouldn't be so optimistic.
This is the same department that issued visa extension to a dead terrorist after 6 months of his death.
Right!
My logic is, they know LOT(thousands) of PPL will be filing. I think they must have a plan. Cause I don't think they opened the gate to reject the applications. There must be a plan.

I have spoken about IV to several friends, colleagues, acquaintances and relatives who are stuck in retrogression or likely to be affected by it sooner or later. I have found it very hard to orally convey effectively what IV does and how it benefits people like them. Of those to I have spoken to only 4 or 5 have become members of IV. Also, I think a lot of people, including me, find it difficult (shy, I guess) to directly approach people and canvass about anything.
I have also sent emails to these and several others about IV. Not sure how many read it and how many have become members. Nowadays chain and mass emails have become so ubiquitous, most people ignore or delete them, no matter who sends them.
Someone might have already done this or proposed this already, not sure
Here is what I will be doing to increase awareness about IV:
I think direct mail, although costs money, is one of the most effective way of communicating ideas and organizations like IV. People take this more seriously than emails.
In the next few days I will make a list of people (at least 30) that I want to convey about IV to and send them direct mail about IV. This will be done by printing the brochures and text of email IV has published and send it to them via postal mail. I may not have the postal addresses of all of them, but I should be able to find out by doing a reverse lookup on their phone numbers. I am also thinking of sending it to their work address if I can not find their home address.
In a few days, I will post again letting you all know how many direct mails I sent.
Here is what IV can do:
If IV thinks this is an effective way to increase membership they can do the following: Have members send them postal addresses and money towards postage and stationery. E.g. 50 cents per address. IV can send postal mails to the people (addresses given by members).
I think this is better than members sending themselves because IV can fine-tune the message and messages have more gravity if it comes from a non-profit instead of an individual person. (Others may disagree with this statement). Some may want to canvass about IV but may want to remain anonymous. Those who do not want to remain anonymous should have the option of adding their name/address at some appropriate place in the letter.
Another suggestion is that IV should publish a comprehensive direct mail package (and guidelines) that can be downloaded and printed by members like me who want to send direct mails

Yeah Right. Now you are going to tell me, my higher education is due to IV, me coming to US is due to IV, me getting bachelors, masters, phd is due to IV, me getting H1 B visa approval and stamping, My getting EB 2 filed approved is caz of IV. , labor approval, 2 yr eads, medical appointments are all due to IV. Get real.
When I was in trouble, I threw some money at Ms Sheela (not Sheela from sheela ki jawani) and voila , I had solution for my problems. IF we are legal here, we need to be afraid of anything, else glad to go back home.
Dude, understand that I am a friend not an enemy to IV advocacy. I just said, for me to contribute, I should feel that IV made an impact or will make an impact for my cause. Which I dont feel right now.
Make me believe and I am in. Until then keep trying.
If you still want to bark , well you can pick some tree as I just ignored this debate.
If by "impact" you mean "being current" - that's not easy. Will you pay up only if IV helped you be "current".
Removing backlog is not easy...don't wait for the results to contribute. Contribute to get results.

I did not take infopass appointment. I called the Customer Service on May 6th and opened a service request and today I got a request for evidence from USCIS. I am able to see this online but did not receive any letter. I think we should receive the letter by the end of the week...very frustrating...
Don't worry too much.. It could be as simple as having to re-submit a particular form once again because the tick marks were not legible! This has happened.

We need active participation from members for the action item listed on this thread. CHC member are taking a very hard stand on the 3 bills introduced by Lofgren. If members (esp. constituents) don't call in large numbers and urge the CHC members to support the bills. The 3 bills may not even see the house floor. CHC members want only one immigration bill (CIR), nothing else is accepted.
Please ask u'r friends and colleagues (who are constituents of CHC lawmakers) to participate in this crucial action item.
