Completely agree with you. What the heck is this... why not just assign the visa numbers to application as per their PD and then see if the case can be instantly approved or needs more investigation.

"self-imposed" as in 'chosen people' - as to subscribe to a higher standard to fulfill some expectation. It is not an accusation, it is called underlying presumptions in your posts.
" i did not convey my intentions clearly" - then your comm skills are not much as you have presumptively touted them to be when you shot down the other guy. I am just pointing out, before pontificating, try self-analysis.
peace.....!!!

For those who doubt that a definitive initiative is needed for the Legal immigrant community, may I humbly remind them of the most basic and the most important phrase of the US Constitution..."Every human being has the right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness". What has been happening with all this memos and counter-memos and visa bulletins from the USCIS and the DOS is a denial of our basic human rights...first as Human beings and then as Legal Immigrants. Friends we can possibly build a strong case based on the informed readings of the US Constitution and Law. We have done nothing wrong to get such treatment buy these departments. We have followed every law and requirement that the US Immigration Law has prescribed but because of the sheer number of immigrants from India and China we are being disadvantaged and discriminated by the US Congress, certain laws and by these departments. It is not a legal immigrants fault that the US Law does not limit the F1 visas issued in a year by country and the number of jobs applied under H1b program by country. The endless delays in the GC process clearly disadvantages the legal immigrant community from large countries like India and China compared with legal immigrants from other countries and even US citizens. They clearly cannot pursue their dreams of prosperity, career advancement, security (for himself and family via education, jobs and homes) and overall happiness. Justice delayed is nearly always denied.
An Immigration Attorney and Constitutional Lawyer can build a clear case for us. For reference on human rights, please follow these links:

Pamposh - Point is not we getting money, idea is getting it back from USCIS. Whoever paid it, USCIS got it. Moreover, money is not the only issue. There are quite a few as we listed before.
Completely agreed. It is not about money, that is just a small portion of the whole issue and it does not matter who paid it. Infact even if the employer is paying for our application he/she is not paying it for free, they pay coz we work for them so logically it could be considered our money...that is what we need to emphasize on.
Its ideal, we dont waste our energy on these.
I don't think we are wasting energy/time by identifying gaps and answering questions to folks who want to know more about what exactly are we talking about here. Moving on and gaining more and more support etc., all these things need to be done in parallel.

In order to understand the situation please look at Macaca's post on anticipated usage as opposed to real usage. Apart from politics and other pressures, biggest reason for revised July Bulletin is June bulletin itself !!!. June bulletin had a biggest jump in dates in recent past (aside from doomed July bulletin). This lead to a huge number of fillings in June, no one knows how many at this time, but looking at the way receipts are coming out from USCIS they have not finish with receipts of first week of filers. DOS unaware of such huge spike in fillings went ahead and made everything current based on available number of visas. The only way this could have been avoided was USCIS communicating with DOS that June AOS fillings would suffice to exhaust the quota for the year. If the communication between the agency had been sound they would have made everything "U" in the first June bulletin itself. But when the bulletin was out it was too late to do anything. The only thing USCIS could do, was to exhaust the Visa numbers as fast before July 2 the date when flood gates were supposed to be opened. They did just that. That's the ONLY way USCIS could affect DOS bulletin, nothing else would have worked. As far as timings goes, why not early or right after when they realized that June AOS fillings would exhaust the numbers, perhaps because ONLY way to put a hard stop to any filings in June is exhaust the actual numbers not the anticipated demands. Remember exhaustion of the number is the only way to put a complete stop in fillings, anticipated demands are used only to set the dates in the bulletin. That explains the timings, USICIS needed every single day in June to finish the numbers and they just did that!!!!
In conclusion reversal of bulletin is less of a conspiracy and more of the bad planning and execution and primary reason for reversal is June bulletin�s big jump. That�s my 2 cents on the matter.
But that does address the question: if they can finish those cases in such a short period of time, how come they did not process those cases earlier? Contributing everything to communicating and planning is a stretch. They are definitely factors. But not the factors. What about wasting of visa #s in prevous several years! :confused:

I feel that because of the preadjudication of July 07 applications, USCIS now has a better idea of the application backlog. They also know that usually at the end of the fiscal year they have EB-1 and ROW EB-2 visas left; they might have therefore decided to finish off the EB-2, 2004 cases, even if it means consuming more than the annually designated 3200 visas early in the fiscal year.
The reason for controlling Priority Dates month by month, is because USCIS does not (or did not) know how many people will become eligible to file I-485 if the dates move by a "X" amount. Once USCIS knows how many I-485 applications it already has in its backlog, Visa Bulletin becomes a mute point.
I suspect USCIS will quickly clear off EB-2, 2004 and will then make the dates "U". Then in early summer it will reevaluate how many visas have got consumed and will likely get consumed in the next few months of 2010, and at that point may move the dates further into 2005.
This is just my feeling...........I hope I am wrong, though, and the dates keep inching forward every month.

The link in my earlier post is a job advertisement which clearly states that EAD folks need not apply. There are 1000s of folks out there who are eligible for that position, but for the EAD restriction.
As per I-9 form
Any person wrongly discriminated due to EAD expiration date has the option of seeking claims for damages caused by the other party in court of law. I am not aware of any case involving such facts.

Sorry to read blaming debates between eb3 and eb2. Insted of blaming, it is better to take some action. Based on current practice by DOS, EB3-I will be like this for ever, unless more number opens up by any legislative changes. As per law, each EB catagories are allowed to have 40K visas. As demand for EB2 is more, (paricularly by In,Ch) one can not expect any flow from EB2 to EB3 . This is law one can not change it.
Now I am coming to important point to take some action by EB3-I. The law says, 7% country quota will be applied in each prefrence catagory if worldwide demand for visas is more than supply in that catagory. But the law does not set any time frame. Therefore, the real threat for EB3-I is EB3-ROW. As per current practice, untill EB3-ROW become "current" EB3-I will get only 3000 visas per year. What happen if EB3-ROW never become "current" for next 50 years? EB3-I will be stuck in 2001 or 2002 for ever. To add my point, let us imagine a hypothetical case. Lets say in 2010 about 1 million ROW guys neend EB3 visa number. All has PD 2010. EB3-In will be stuck in 2001 till one million EB-ROW with PD 2010 recives GC. In nut shell, a EB3-ROW with latest PD will be given more preference than EB3-In with PD 2001. As current practice does not set any time limit, new flow of applications keeps retrogressed countries stuck for ever. This point has to be conveyed to DOS and USCIS to change the practice. Applications receviced in one fiscal year has to be cleared (grant GC) to process the application from next year. This way new applications from ROW will not stuck the retrogreesd countries for ever.
You already see that happening. EB2-ROW with PD as early as Jan 2008 are getting approved. So they get their GC in less than 8 months (including all the stages).
EB3-ROW will never be current and hence no spillover to EB3-I. EB3-I is screwed up royally. EB3-I will get 3000 visas per year and that will not help move PD by one month even.

I thinks EB3 INDIA will move between 9/11/2001 to JAN 2004 , because after 9/11 probably few people applied for GreenCrd because of market condition, even h1b quotas are not used for 2002 and 2003, i applied for h1b on 2004 April , no surprise the quota available because of market condition.

Yeah, I know my life sucks. I have a priority date of Jan 2003. Got filed under EB3 even though did MS here... I begged and pleaded that they atleast send it on Jan 28th. For god's sake, I was qualified all the way since June 1st. I gave all the documents necessary by June 6th itself. Well, but they had to file on 29th.
I hear you man. I am in exact same situation. I filed on June 29th inspite of having whole July. We will see what happens. Hope we will be fine!
Good luck!

Why don;t you sign unless it say until and after 1 year approval:, you can leave employment after 6 months of filing I-485 and see what happens at that time, you have nothing to loose
I have dealt all options with my employer ...
They will give me "Employer Letter" ASAP but i have to sign a letter that i'll work with them for 1 year after getting 485 approval.
What does it mean - Indirectly i have to work with them till 485 approval ( which could be 3 yrs easily) plus another 1 year ??
