If EB2 row perm hits 10000 apps thats it pd wont move a bit. That will happen as soon as hiring starts again. This will happen any time, if this not happen until sep 2010, then EB2 has a chance. There are about 15000 (approx) EB2 Row apps siiting ducks in Perm centers, if ROW PErm eb2 approvals start flowing then we are just stuck. It all depends on EB2 Row Now. That is the one we need to watch closely.
Even if the economy improves, it will take some time to plan the recruitment, then hiring people and then they will take sometime to start the PERM process and then filing it and getting the approval. FOr all these things to happen, it will be a minimum of one year ad even it may cross two years. Don't bother too much about this.
I prefer the economy to improve over getting GC, if economy is good we will not have to worry about getting a Job if laid off and also, if we have EAD we can change jobs easily and many of the problems without the GC are not that siginificant then.

We should send emails to Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Jay Leno, David Letterman, Conan O'Brian, Jimmy Kimmel etc.
They have tremendous amount of viewership and seems like a perfect material for these shows. I will send email to these guys but if more and more peple can make them aware of this development, this news can potentially snowball. :D

I think we should concentrate on things which are beneficial for everyone - not only EB1-2 or 3 . We should get USCIS to improve efficiency, use all visas, get applications processed according to their PD and not randomly and above all do away with the country limits which is the biggest cause of this retrogression.
When there are so many big issues pending I wonder why not concentrate on them instead.
There are so many people from all EB categories whose I-140 has been pending for more than a year. Shouldn't that be a priority also because without an approved I-140 their GC will also not be approved even if they have a PD from 2001-2002.
There are more important issues at hand here as I see it.

Yes, I do agree that we should have some sense of personal responsibility and that is why the middle way is to rent out the house (probably at a bit lower price than your monthly mortgage) and pay the difference from your pocket - if you have to absolutely move out from the house. But, can somebody answer my question above..........why is the same house (not even a brick changed) being appraised at around 100k lower than it was done 2 years back, by the same bank??

Your posts are enlightening and breath of fresh air in an otherwise non-nonsensical forum discussion. Although people would want to, but talk about ethics and moral is not forbidden, not yet at least.
The very people tossing aside ethics are the ones who used good faith based credit system. Now suddenly it is all Capitalism, Greed, Bank's and Lender's fault. Whatever happen to personal responsibility ?
All those suggesting foreclosure are forgetting one thing: The pendulum has shifted and the same capitalism that supported the reckless credit is now going to choke it off. You don't want to be on the wrong side twice !!!! The thing about free markets is they adjust to new realities long before people do.Before you know it the easy walking away (or foreclosure) might become the biggest mistake while buying house might be distant second.
In the meanwhile please don't shoot the messenger aka sledge_hammer. If you read his posts he has given the best advice with a good dose of much needed reality and sound language. If you are hostile towards him you are simply in denial. The longer you stay there the harder it will be to cope with the new realities.
Punjabi77, good luck to you buddy. This will pass too, don't ruin everything for $20K. You will earn it back but you can't undo foreclosure and whatever comes with it in terms of personal memory, your credit and things in future that you can't foresee now. Do the right thing it will only make you stronger and someday you will be able to tell your kid that you did the right thing in the face of adversity and eventually not only survived it but thrived out of it.

Talking about travel experience, here is one I had at the CDG Airport in Paris..
I was flying back this Dec 31st, 2007 from Dubai and had a 5 hour layover at CDG. I had to go to a different terminal from the one I landed in... and that meant going through security check again at the new terminal.
I placed by carry on backpack on the x ray machine and I was waiting for my bag to at least start moving before I walked through the metal detector. While the ICTS (pvt company) security agent on the othe side signalled me to walk through, i said (in English) that I would like to wait till the bags get into the X-ray machine..
This did not sit well with this ICTS Agent.. He walked past the metal detector and proceeded to shove and push me past the metal detector.. (I forgot to mention that I had knee surgery ~ 20 days back to fix an ACL injury)
I could not believe that I was shoved past a metal detector.. I said to the ICTS agent that he had no right to shove me and I asked to speak to his supervisor.. This made this so called agent more angry and he started to threaten me repeatening "you want to report me"!! His immediate supervisor said that since this was a security issue nothing could be done.. Not willing to give up, I asked to speak the head agent there.. He was a bit more helpful.. he gave me a website and a mailing address where I can write to..(with the details of which gate and what time I experienced this)..
I kept repeating to every supervisor that I did the right thing and their agent did the wrong thing by shoving me..
I was not satisfied with just some addresses and website for the terrible way I was treated. After a while of sitting at the terminal, I went back and I asked that I wanted to file a Police case against the agent. Initially, the agents said once you are in the terminal, you cannot get out.. I spoke to the head agent again who let me get out and gave me directions to the Police booth in the airport.
At the police station, I stood around with Visa violaters for a while.. Eventually, they were able to find someone who spoke halting English.. Since I was not physically hurt, I could not file a Police case against the agent. What I was able to file was something like an incident report (but unfortunately no tracking #)
This was an interesting first hand experience in overt racism.. being treated like crap because the agent thought he could get away with doing that to a South Asian looking person..
I have since written to
- ICTS France, Roissy Pole le Dome, 1 rue de la haye, 95000 Roussy CDG Paris, France
- Air France
- e-mailed ADPWEB [ADPWEB@adp.fr]
- Nicholas Sarkozy
and a few others..
I am not going to let this ICTS Agent treat people like crap.. After he saw that I went out to put a police case, he came to talk to me at the terminal saying that I can shove him if I want and a lot of other excuses.. I kept repeating my mantra " I did the right thing. You did the wrong thing. You cannot force me to do the wrong thing.."
I will keep writing to all the parties until I hear back..
and Air France, even though I liked your service at the airplane, I am not flying through CDG ever again..
Lets vote with our feet.. Lets vote with our money.. Lets avoid airports that don't treat all passengers equally..

I have a couple of issues guys and need your advise:
1. I have a valid H1b visa stamped on passport till June 2007. I and my spouse have EAD and AP as well. Upon my return from India in Dec 2006 the Immigration Officer at the POE did not let us use our h visas, H1 for me and H4 for my spouse and instead asked us to use AP to enter into USA and he stamped my AP and the I-94 showing my entrance as Parole and valid till Jan 22, 2007 ( My AP was valid till that date only). He said that I am not cancelling your h1. What does it mean? Am I no longer on H1 visa? What would happen after Jan 22, 2007 when my parole expires? I have filed for a new AP though but have not recieved it so far.
2. My and my spouse's EAD is expiring on Jan 22, 2007. We filed for the EADs in Nov and waiting for it. In the mean time we got a notice for finger prints. After the finger prints, our notices were stamped with the date on it. The stamp reads as "LIFE ACT PROCESSING STAMP" where as on all the previous occassions of finger printing, the stamp would read as " BIOMETRICS PROCESSING STAMP". Moreover as I have registered on line to check the status of my petitions, usually after the finger prints the date used to change when some thing happens to one's file like getting the finger printing done etc. but this time nothing changed and the date is showing up the same when I initially submitted my application.
Any Idea about this folks??? Time is running out for me.

Thanks SOP!
Thats a good suggestion. I will contact the congressman and senator and ombudsman as well.
How can they reopen a case thats already approved. They approved and reopened the case on the same day.
We took infopass and they told us that the visa's retrogressed so they had to pull back their decision. I showed the officier visa bulletin and told him that am current as today is oct 1st and the new qouta should have started already.
The response he gave is he cann't access the files as the files are frozen and it will take them about 2weeks to access the files.
My files are at local office as i had an interview on Aug 24th

This is a derogatory quote from EastIndia.
Anyone who has not yet donated for advocacy is NOT a freeloader. People who have NEVER donated and seek help without any exchange are called "freeloaders".
Get it right, man!
Guys do not feed the freeloaders by telling anything you are reading in the donor forum. Let these people help themselves by signing up for recurring contributions if they want helpful nformation about their EB2 PD movemement. We are still not meeting of our advocacy day amount. It is all because most people want free lunches. This needs to stop. The 200 people going to DC tomorrow are going to speak for you and me for yours and mine greencard. They are taking time off and spending own money for you and me. Nothing is free in this world. IV is also doing this for you and me and we are taking it for granted. Let people do some good deed today if they want to know good information

I have eb3 485 and am working on EB3 EAD. I do not have a h1b
Eb3 485 Filed on July 2007
Got a promotion at the same company in Jan 2009 and applied for Labor n Eb2 for the new position
Still wating for Perm approval in EB2
Beautifulmind,
I do not want to scare you but what you are claiming here i.e. while working on EB3-EAD aceepting promotion for a EB2-level skill can not be accepted by USCIS. You simply can not accept higher skill level based promotion like that. I think you should first sit down with a good lawyer and find out the solution of this already created mess and then think about interfiling.
Based on all info you provided it looks like our cases are not similar. I have already new approved I-140 - EB2 base - approved in year 2006. My 485 is attached to EB3.

Only thing I know is that if you come before me in the line I am affected. It is not a DMV line where every one will get their License, it is a ration line where the items are limited.
Call it selfish call it any thing else but these are the facts after being in the USA for last 12 years and two different labors.
You have every right to look after yourself. But it should not be at the expense of your comrades who are affected by this unjust system more than you are.
Solution: direct your ire against the system that is unjust to you. ( USCIS, DOL, Gov etc). That is what IV is trying to do. Let them give enough visa numbers for EB based applicants.
If many of the great leaders of the world were as selfish as we are, we would all be a herd of animals.

But the problem is, they mite b stating this under review for all cases to avoid repeated requests and hence the issue..
Is ur case also at NSC?
How has ur luck been with the POJ method? Have u always recvd the same informn from all IOs?
I always get a different response wen i talk to an IO at NSC...

Guys why dont you get it??? :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
EB1 is the most imp for US, followed by EB2, followed by EB3?
Why should USCIS follow the approach of oldest priority first? without any regards to the EB categories?
EB categories were created for a reason, doesn't matter how smart you are. If you are in lower skill category your wait is bound to be more. I don't see anything wrong in that.
If EB1 is current and EB2 takes 4-5 years you can't just start crying. Similarly if EB2 takes 2 years and Eb3 takes 7-8 years you can't panic. Stop being a cry baby and start respecting the inter EB level priority.

that is your problem dude. you can shovel dirt but can not argue with reason. Logic gets lost in passion and words whose meaning you do not know get thrown around and tie you in knots. btw logic is another major component of software engineering and on current evidence its not your strong point.
Go f*** yourself with nonsense about logic. Wasn't it your compatriot from India who started writing nonsense about americans here.
This is precisely the problem with Indian mentality that average americans interacted with americans complain about. Unfortunately IDIOTIC indians such as yourself think for some reason you have a monopoly on logic, when you are the one who involve in emotional arguing as can be evidenced in this thread.
