Sure, I am up for it.
PS: Just the 5 or 1 mile run for now ;) baby steps
One in the East Coast, One in the west coast and one in between.
For the West coast I would pick the SanFrancisco Marathon (Just to be sure that gsc999 participates :p) on August 03'rd. The participants of this event can choose either a 5k, half marathon or a full marathon. This event should be fun to be part of. We have lot of committed members in our No.Cal chapter.
Nola: you already have my e-mail so please add me to your list. Meanwhile, I will post your message in our Nor. Cal. yahoo group.
Thanks to all for your support. :)The first step I would like to propose is that we need to establish a group called Team IV Coordinators. Those who are interested in being part of this group, please send me a private message with your e-mail address so that I can set up a group e-mail to present and discuss the ideas to get us started. The Coordinator Group should be Team IV members whether you run/walk or not. I will take the lead but of course, I would love to have a core group to bounce ideas off of and to have as a resource pool.
I agree with picking 3 national events as previously suggested, one on east coast, one west coast and one centrally located.
Please send me Private Messages with your e-mail or contact info so that we can get the Coordinator Group up and running to set out the parameters of Team IV.
Thanks!! :)
People in San Diego please let me know if you want to meet me this Saturday afternoon, it would be great if we can start a local IV chapter in San Diego.
We can discuss this new initiative proposed by Nola. I can also share our strategy and update you personally on our progress on the Admin fix campaign.
Cheers!

Friends I think a great injustice is being done to NSC filers , their applications are taking months for ead and ap, while TSC filers are getting ead adn AP as soon as they get receipt, do you think this will improve for NSC in future, at this time looks like august NSC filers will haveto wait till the end of the year for EAD,ap, which is sad.
Agree with you. It is sad.

When is the last case for EB2 India approved?Just wanted to know the priority date of it.Mine is June 2006 EB2 when can i get my GC?Any guess?
This is wrong thread to ask that question, but anyway estimates are that 2006 Eb2s should be approved by 2013 considering the number of visas remain at 140K each year. Someone in IV made all this analysis and put an excel spreadsheet, you can find it in one of the forums and check yourself.

It's just a caution. Some people would like to take it slowly but surely, some people love to run fast with a risk of stumbling in the middle. Whichever you go, the finish line is always the same.
All I am saying is if you wish the fast route with the risk of stumbling, then go for it. If not, try the slow but sure route.

Hi guys,
I have booked an online visa appointment (Chennai consulate) on Feb 26th.
Help me with what is all required for Visa stamping.
Anything to be really careful about?
Any tips will be highly appreciated.
srikondoji,
My wife and I have an appointmnet on the 20th of Feb at Chennai. I am taking the same set of documents I took couple of years ago (of course the updated ones). Olny thing is this time my I-140 is approved and I have disclosed that info in my application. I am hoping that nothing will go wrong. PM me if you want feedback after my interview.

I had a copy of approved I-140 (EB2) with PD Mar 06. I had to file for new labor in Apr 09, after i got my labor my lawyer filed for new I-140 with a copy of earlier approved I-140. I remember she was saying that they will also write a cover letter to recapture earlier priority date (I don't have a copy of that). So i believe porting can be done easily when filing new I-140 rather than after I-140 approval (i am not saying you cannot do after new I-140 approval but it takes extra effort, time and energy ).
In the interest of others in a similar situation can you post the exact process that you or your lawyer finally followed to get a successful porting of PD?

Awesome, ur IV family appreciate you. Folks like you are inspiration to all of us.
I was the guy from Sweden. I agree with the Russian student.
The reason I was there was because my green card process was a painful and stressful experience for 5 years. And I was still one of the lucky ones! I don't want to put anyone through the same agony, not even my worst enemy. I really feel for the people still stuck in the mess.
I talked to a Polish guy who had been here 9 years fully legally and could not leave. He had not seen his family in 9 years and did not want to risk going back just in case they would not approve his H1B in his home country. They are very strict there it seems, because none of his family members or friends could not even get a tourist nor visit visa to see his graduation. Shocking!
I was glad I showed up at the rally just to hear all the peoples' stories.
Most people who did not show up probably think they are ok after applying the i485. They will join IV rallies, when they realize how wrong they are. People have applied for i485s years ago and still don't have a green card...
You are in trouble until you get your green card in your hand.

what is the deadline for the final letter and when can we start the campaign.
Also I would really appreciate if someone can post the instruction on how to send the fax.. step by step so that the non IT layman also can do that.
Please keep bumping this post and put a poll on this thread or start a thread just to get the count on how many did it.
But...I'm not comfortable with subject, that is starting with a question.. ( reply to svn's post)
IMO, it might backfire as...'What da xxxx is in it for legal immigrants?'( depending upon ones mood at that time)
I'm more for a lowered tone...request, that is.
Thanks hsingh82! for the post and validating the site.

Friends,
I just joined this portal and I am very impressed...., wish I had joined earlier....
If we can quickly put together some PPT presentations and our problems in immigration, we should rush it to President and PMO office in India and make a request to hand it over to Mr.Bush when he is visiting India....., It may be too late but we can give a shot.
What you think ?

It is so pathetic that there are so much people waiting in EB3-I category.
This Guy just applied in Dec 2004 and got GC. His question is whether i need to carry ?
it is only karma.
I feel for you buddy. You can't be hating the player....you got to hate the game. This is exactly how I felt when 2006 PDs were getting approved last year. You are totally right....GC depends on your Karma.

Hi guys,
...
followup post:
I think there is a mix up here between two things:
180 day clock does start on the first day after filing 485, but that is for the purpose of AC21. Once you use AC21, then the next employer assumes the role of "your future permanent employer" and you should have "intent to permanently work for that(new, not the sponsoring) employer" AT the time of GC approval.
If you use change the employers 7 times using AC21 before your GC gets approved; you should have "intent to work permanently for the latest employer".
You are not bonded slaves. The only issue is that the "burden of proof" of proving the intent to work for such and such employer is on the GC beneficiary and not on USCIS. So in future, if USCIS questions (or CBP questions), it is YOU who has to prove that intent.
One scenario where you WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PROVE IT: if you never worked for the sponsoring employer.
One scenario where you WILL NOT HAVE A PROBLEM PROVING IT: if you worked with sponsoring (or latest AC21) employer after GC approval for some duration (60 days?? 90 days?? 6 months?? 1 year??)...no law on this.
This is the whole purpose of Labor Certification process and I140. And it applies to the categories of EB2 (except NIW) and EB3--any category that requires LC.
This is from my discussion in following thread:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/sh...ad.php?t=20403
I just put it here so that everyone would not have to try the link and may be this information is useful to someone.
Good Luck.

I have similar situation - I applied for 140 in July 2006. My daughter will turn 21 in July 2007. As I have applied for 140 before she turns 21, she is safe for GC, but will loose H4 status when she turns 21. As per my lawyer's advice I have applied for her F1 so that she can stay and continue her studies in US. When I become eligible to apply for 485, she can be included in the application - but, not as a dependent of H1B holder.I urge you to ask for second opinion. From my understanding it depends how long your I-140 was pending.
Here is a part of "The Child Status Protection Act � Memorandum Number 2" by
Johnny N. Williams
http://www.immigration.com/newsletter1/childprotac.pdf
------------------------
Derivative Beneficiaries � Family and Employment-Based
In addition to the direct beneficiary family-based preference category examples provided in the previous memorandum and above, section 3 of the CSPA also applies to derivative beneficiaries in both family-based and employment-based preference categories. Just as with the case of the Form I-130, with an adjustment based upon an approved Form I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker, [and other immigrant petitions filed under section 204 of the Act for classification under sections 203(a), (b), or (c) of the Act], the beneficiary�s age is to be calculated by first determining the age of the alien on the date that a visa number becomes available. The date that a visa number becomes available is the approval date of the immigrant petition if, according to the DOS Visa Bulletin, a visa number was already available for that preference category on that date of approval. If, upon approval of the immigrant petition, a visa number was not available, then the date for determining age is to be the first day of the month of the DOS Visa Bulletin which indicates availability of a visa for that preference category. From that age, subtract the number of days that the petition was pending, provided the beneficiary files a Form I-485,3 based on the subject petition, within one year of such visa availability. The �period that a petition is pending� for the Form I-140 is the date that the Form I-140 is properly filed (receipt date and not priority date) until the date an approval is issued on the petition.

Are we so idle that we are thinking about changing the name of IV? Don't we have something better to do like taking part in IV activities?
Well how about chaging our own names too so that americans can easily remember our names? I think that its a good idea too.
The suggestion for the name change was to identify us as "legal" tax paying individuals, and not for the ease of remembering the name.
However, I do agree that it may be too much of an effort, and would recomend that when communicating with lawmakes and other inviduals, we introduce ourselves as legal tax paying individuals that are trying to reunite families and children, and provide ourselves the freedom and the ability to further our careers by attempting to streamline the immigration process.

I would support this bill since it makes a lot of sense. I am not going to benefit from this since I have masters and not PhD but people who have sacrificed the lure of big money to live on campus with 2-3 roomies for almost 5 years in which time their friends who graduated are driving lexus and staying in 5 Br homes need some consolation prize. This is a great move for these students as well as the country.
While I definitely support this bill, I fail to understand your logic here. They definitely are bright candidates but they did everything by choice for the personal and professional gain. They should be given GC because they are asset to this country not because they don't own lexus or 5 Br house which by the way tells a lot about other hardworking people who own them.
