Mr Eb3 nepa,
As much as i would like to believe that and agree with u, let's not forget that most of the persons on H1-b are Indians and Chinese. Why not allow Indians and Chinese for Diversity lottery?
Y have contry quotas, let it be all merit based.
You want me to believe that there is no discrimination, I laugh at that thought, u r just fooling urself, it's part of this country, it's part of their culture, not that India is any better, but u can't ignore the fact that there is very active discrimination in this country.

What about people with pending PERM applications?
The problem is quota of 90,000 visas is available for petitions filed before October 1st 2007. MBS will not start until October 1st 2008 (because of 270 days gap). There is no guarantee that BECs will process petitions by Octobet 1st either. Someone has to clarify if pending labor petitions will be eligible for the 90,000 quota or not. The INA section 212(5)(A) refers to labor petitions in general - PERM or BEC.

..... However; lawmakers, etc. are not stupid people. ....
I agree , especially if it fits majority of them ( and the 'types' of them ).
One needs real diversity in US population. There are too many here from EU.

i dont think its a controversy. mr. Gotcher does not agree with the interpretation. Maybe its a way to generate some additional revenues for his firm by increased traffic to the blog and potentially a class action lawsuit on behalf of the ROW people.

The term "Priority Date" appeared 10 times in last Visa Bulletin.
I wonder how USCIS is able to follow Visa Bulletin, without understanding this term.
I will contribute $25, if we decide to go this route. However I agree with all who say that we should ask them to make this info available periodically & REGULARLY (so that it does not end up like updates on processing dates)

It would soon be 9 years for me to be here in US, my 2001 app is in DBEC. I have been with the same company for almost 7 years, have survived through rounds of layoffs, and so many other personal issues, I can not even count.
Despite this I am willing to stay here and give it some more time.
For the first time in last many years, while my app was rotting at SWA, I have seen an concentrated effort by an organization to raise immigration issues.
I am willing to see what IV does and how far reaches in it's goals, at least various lawmakers are aware of our problems now.
Keep the faith, hang in there, this is a really long tunnel but after so many reversals, it about time we see something positive done for us.
As for the those who say, "US doesn't care, i will go back, US will get hurt", I don't buy that argument, US will not get hurt, despite so many problems US still remains a magnet that attracts talent from all over the world.
If you leave, or if I leave will have very little impact. And even if u go back and start working for TCS or Wipro, they will send you back to US on a project.
Unless you want to start your own business, I don't see much benefit in going back and working for the big consulting companies. And if you want to start business, why not start here, who is stopping you? ok, i know there are limitations on H1 etc, but there are many loophopes work around those.
And what if things change in India? if things are not in your favor there, where will run from there? where will you go?
My point being that we have a pretty decent chance to getting some immigration relief here, IV is working towards it, instead of saying "forget it" I am leaving, let's all learn to fight.
Let's all learn to work to solve this problem. Work with IV, work yourself to get one of these bills passed.
If nothing else, lets's all make it a point that every 2 weeks, we will write a letter to our lawmakers explaining the problem and asking for relif. every other week write to a media channel.
Even if you are not great at writing letters, just write what you can and send, it doesn't need to be perfect.
Eventually, someone will notice, eventually someone will do something about it.
So, for all those who are thinking of running away, I am saying, how about stay here and fight here. Let's stop taking the easy path out everytime, if you want your benfit, stay and do something positive.
your's truly,
Sangam.

Its just a matter that the Company felt that your skills require only a bachelor's degree for the work that you perform,whereas other companies feel it requires a master's degree.

I think its time to stop this discussion. It is pointless and self serving. We are all amazingly beautiful, intelligent, strong and sexy. Some are beautiful, intelligent , strong ,sexy and EB2 while the rest are beautiful, intelligent, strong, sexy and EB3.

Bestin,
I agree we do spend a lot on the GC process. It's painful to watch the inefficiency of USCIS after paying so much. How much ever we paid for GC process, India trip etc., are unlikely to buy us any sympathy from the Law makers.
We could get asked questions such as 'if it's so expensive and inefficient why did you apply for it?' and 'why do you guys need to fly to India every year?'. People are interested in only the figures that affect them directly . That's life!
We can, for sure, catch their attention if we can show them in real figures how much Federal and State Taxes, SSN , Medicare etc. we have paid as a group. Are these figures avaible today? Forget about how much we are paying to the US economy - is there any real figures available on how many EB GC applicants are in Michigan?
Answer is 'NO'
We need to collect and collate these figures. Present them to the Lawmakers and Media to make our case. I have an idea about it. I will be proposing at the meet to gather others opinions. Once we have an internal agreement and a solid plan, we can propose it to the Core for their sanction.
Lets Do It Together
.....
Just consider howmuch we spent on GC filing?I personally had to spend for filing and attorney and medical approx 7000$ (ya i had to use my company attorney as my labour was approved in last time).If atleast 200000 people did spend atleast 5000 ,then see how much we spent .Atleast 1000,000,000 dollars inside America during June to August 07 out of which atleast 50% to USCIS for something which MAY OR MAYNOT happen after years.And again a confirmed money 1500-2500 dollars every year for attorney+uscis fee for EAD and AP.The figure which i mentioned is just for an example,the actual figure might be twice.
In addition we spend on travel .A typical Indian Trip for a family of 4 would cost atleast $5000 on Air.If these taxes are considered see how much we contribute.And yes we pay for SSN,medicare for americans to enjoy at florida after 60.
......
Yes WD,we will make Michigan a role model.
Thanks for your snacks CC !!!!!. Looking forward to meet u guys .

It seems like the group I am currently working in will shutdown in few months and more than half of the people have left the group already. I, therefore, need to find a job in next 4 months or so. I am a computer engineer by profession but trying to pursue a career in SAP functional field or DBA and looking for some advise from professionals in the field on training requirements/opportunities, career opportunities in different SAP modules, and how to basically get started.

What we get
1. We get number of EB2,EB3 Primary and EB2,EB3 Dependent applications.
2. From the wordings, I won't be suprized if they give a summarized number from 2001.
But if someone else requested this info broken into PD buckets by month and Year, then I think we need to use that. The letter I sent had that wording, but I never received any response yet.
Here is what we don't get
1. Break up by country - Helps folks in EB3 as ROW is not current
2. Some might have not applied for AOS for various reason like their I140 is still pending, Some companies mandate that. - This could be a small percentage
3. Break-up by PD month& year
More insight is welcome.. Pre-adjudicated cases are not approved cases. So they can't eliminate them..
I have received a response on my request last year to USCIS for information on number of AOS applications pending. Here it is:

Before others trying to guess which country I belong to, I want to admit that I am from India.
The point I am trying to make is about the categorization of the Employment Based immigration, which in itself is proof of the differences between categories (including the EB-5 or the Religious category) as identified and classified by the USCIS/DOS.
It is altogether a different matter as to what exactly a person classified in a particular category is doing in his/her job.
I would like to question what qualifications some of the CEOs in this country have, who draw undeserving remuneration from their companies. How many of the Bear Stearns employees are immigrants, both who will still be working and those who are already fired or are likely to be fired soon? How may of the those sub-prime loans are taken by illegal or legal immigrants?
Before starting to question me as to how my post relates to immigration, I request every body to critically think and then respond.
Thanks - IE

I am in the same boat too. But I am not sure if we have a whole 1 month to file 485 based on July bulletin.
The press release by USCIS says that, whoever falls under July Bulletin have the whole 1 month to apply. But if we dont get receipts before July 30th, we may not fall under July bulletin and so we would not be able to apply.
From what I understood, if we get the receipt before jUly 30th,we are good, or else we have to find an alternative to apply before July 30.

I found this on shusterman's regarding obama's views on immigration. Looks like he is all for family based immigration but no mention about employment based.
http://shusterman.com/pdf/obama908.pdf
That's where the "vote bank" is my friend...
I will be little blunt here but will say this:
Ask yourself this question: (assume that you are american born person and are advisor to one of the campaigns): What will help you politically? Supporting skilled EB immigrants (140k per year, who will not be able to vote for at least next five years) or FB immigrants (860k per year, who may also not be able to vote for next five years) or no immigrants (join the part of Loo Doggs and count on may be 1-2 percent of population who may support them which would be 3-6 million votes).
In nutshell, from the perspecitive of politicians, it is never a good deal to support EB immigration; the only incentive for them is the money they get from big companies like microsoft, IBM, google etc. And this is not enough to land us anywhere. Only a very few politician (like sen Lofgren) work for their principles, rest is all vote bank; that's why horses are more important than us.
I am a little bit bitter here, but it is time to understand this reality and consider our strategy accordingly; espeicially for the possible CIR next year.
