Countrywise visa allocation limits contradicts Equal Employment Opportunity law, specially in the presence of the Diversity visa lottery.
I have pledged $1K for the lawsuit, because I believe in this just cause.
We need to find a good attorney to fight it - can anyone talk to the Big names - one name who sounds passionate in his posts is Ron G.
I have no big name lawyers around this remote interior place. I urge the folks who truly believe in this cause to:
- Talk to a few good attorneys
- come up with a plan for action and form an action committee
- Let the attorney determine the way we fund it ( A bare minimum $ amount be advertised), so that a conditional collective representation as well as refund clause is present in the agreement.
- We shall all collectively urge others to contribute too.
- If we do not receive the minimum amount by a certain date (say 60days), we would trust the Attorney to refund the cheque amounts as per the agreements we sign.
- It should not matter whether we win or loose. At least we would have stood for Justice and Equality for all.

I agree with what you say. Yes, backlogged victims need some justice at this moment, otherwise there it is morally not good for everyone.
1. Why don't we petition first before thinking of Lawsuit. We from IV should write a letter to USCIS stating the injustice brought to the backlogged victims and how it is mentally affecting them etc. We should ask USCIS to consider these things and come up with a solution for backlogged victims instead of threatening DOS and others with Lawsuit. Since we are at their mercy, there is nothing wrong in keeping them higher up and at the same time getting what we want.
2. If the petition did not work out, then we can think about some suit. Still I don't agree with any suit as it is not going to bring justice. By the time the suit clears, you will have your GC in hand.
Thanks for your inputs. Please also read my previous message. If there is a less non-confronting approach that is equally good in bringing this to the attention any authorigy and resolving it amicably we should be all for it.
- So can IV help us by filing a petition/letter to DOL/UCIS or the other relevant authority towards this cause...basically explaining the plight of the affected people and how they have been affected by DOL not doing FIFO processing of the labor applications in the traditional process.
IV core team, please provide us some guidance and please help us here.
- I do agree if the petition doesn't work out then we can think on the law suit. OR we can explore that option and start getting the details of the process parallely so that we have all the information in hand. But if a petition isn't possible (which I doubt) then we should be able to swiftly act on the lawsuit.

I was Dem leaning too, and I liked Hillary. But Obama has in no way been running the honorable campaign. He is using others to do his dirty job, if you think otherwise, you too have been sold on the propaganda of the left.
when obama made a sexist remark, what did the press do? Nothing. Let us see what happens if his opposition makes a even a hint of racist remark. I am sure then that the republican campaign will be pounded by every media outlet in the country.
Again, not to say I like republican ideology, I am very left leaning in my thoughts and actions. However at this time, I see that majority of the left is leaning towards Obama just for the sake of leaning towards left, and not on the merits of candidacy. And such thing is bad for everyone concerned (even the world, because like it on not, what happens in USA doesn't just stay in USA) -- Obama has already demonstrated that he is nothing but a political opportunist. His comments on Israel (I liked his statement, but not his intention) and the eventual recanting, and among many other examples, shows that he is just unqualified to be the President.
And for the records, McCain in not running for the job just based on the fact that he was shot down. He has considerable amount of experience working in the Senate and knowledge of world issues, and American issues too.
Give me a break. McCain is running a honorable campaign and Obama is running a dishonoSrable campaign. Can you give me an example close to the "teaching sex to kinder garden" sleazy ad from McCain camp?
What is the sexiest remark? Can you explain? Media pounding on Republican? Oh yeah we saw them pounding on Bush when he ran in 2004. I remember how the media ran stories of kerry shot himself in the foot to become president. And all those pundits asking 'who do you want to have beer with' stupid questions. And I remember the left leaning media pounding on the non issue pastor wright.
Obama is a political opportunist while McCain is a saint? Do you know who said this "I didn't decide to run for president to start a national crusade for the political reforms I believed in or to run a campaign as if it were some grand act of patriotism. In truth, I wanted to be president because it had become my ambition to become president. I was sixty-two years old when I made the decision, and I thought it was my one shot at the prize". John McCain. And what does he say now "Even in retrospect, he would choose the path of retreat and failure for America over the path of success and victory. Behind all of these claims and positions by Senator Obama lies the ambition to be president. What’s missing is the judgment to be commander in chief." He is your saint?
Saint or no saint, we don't want 'drill baby drill" guys and "God is running this war" nuts in the white house. You will have more problems in the economy and useless debates on abortions. We need to push them in the right direction and demand them they carry through their promises. We may not have the right to vote, but the outcome of this election will impact us and around the world.

Hi guys,
This is what my lawyer said.
If you/spouse have used your EAD or are using your EAD then your "Current Immigration Status" is "Adjustment of Status Pending/Parolee". If not then it is either H1B or H4.
If you/spouse have actually travlled outside the US and re-entered using the Advanced parole, then your "Manner of Last Entry" is "Parolee". If not then it is what it says on your I-94 (H1B or H4).
You do **NOT** need the $80 Biometric fee for the Advanced Parole.
hey eb3_nepa
One quick question....if the spouse is on H4, working on EAD and then travels outside and comes back in using her H4....can she then still use her EAD.....??

Please
It's a sad day to see IVers granting each other 'red squares' , and committed members asking each other to 'shut up'.
We are quick in jumping at each others throat for no apparent real reason ! Being part of a forum is sharing space with others, with those whom you disagree, and those who disagree with you. Argue logically, but don't make it a personal fight.
Don't agree with someone, make your displeasure known. If things seem to be getting hotter, ignore the other person. Live and let live. We have bigger issues to worry here - GC mess - instead of who said what !

I just found out that I will not be getting the stimulus as my wife is cannot get a SSN. In addition, we will not be getting stimulus amount for our American born daughter.
We have been here for a year and a half and while there are some benefits to being in America, my wife and I are trying hard to understand why we moved here from Canada (saving taxes is no benefit when compared to having to deal with ignorance all around). My being here is benefiting an American company (which did not have the expertise that I brought to them and this country) and thereby this country.
If I were to leave the company, a number of people would lose their jobs and I would take my expertise somewhere else.....
Is it true that almost everything done in America is poorly planned and lacks foresight and common sense? Our experience here to date is giving us this impression.....
I would be interested in joining with others against the IDIOTS who don't understand who is benefitting this country.
I totally agree with you. I came from Canada too and my wife went to college here, got her nursing degree and RN. Not able to file for GC because of the mess. She is working in an industry which has high demand and lack of people. Health care will be worst for those American baby boomers. Waiting for my kids to go to college ( 4 more years ) and move back to Canada.
Came to USA only for kids higher education.
Anyone interested in joining the group to get SSN for the ITIN holders?

Here's my Tragic Story.... I just couldn't sleep since Monday !! ! ! !
My PD is May 2003 - EB3 and my stupid lawyer sent it on Thursday ( 2nd Day Air) and it reached them on July 02. Do you think if i have a chance that USCIS will accept it.. I called the Service Center and they didn't hv a clue on it yet... Atleast if USCIS can accept the appln.and provide Ead/AP that would suffice for now..
Any thoughts ????

How many members, especially GC bitten members, does IV
Even if 90% of the members donate on an average $75, would that reach the goal?
I am trying to analyze. We need to bump up the funding to ace this opportunity.
Thanks much for all who donated $$$, skypmiles, carpool, etc for this cause.

This is what Fragomen says but we have to keep our fingers crossed:
----------------------------------------------------------
Proposed Amendments to the Senate Bill
Late last week, Senators Maria Cantwell (D-WA), John Cornyn (R-TX), Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Orrin Hatch (R-UT) announced an amendment to the Senate bill that would make important changes to several of the employment-related provisions of the Senate bill. With respect to immigrant visas, the amendment would restructure the proposed merit-based program to add several of the features of the current employment-based system. The amendment would add an employer sponsorship component, and would create programs equivalent to the first, second and third employment-based preference categories for foreign nationals of extraordinary ability, outstanding professors and researchers, multinational executives and managers, advanced degree professionals, foreign nationals of exceptional ability, and professional workers (though the amendment would not provide for an equivalent to the current "other worker" subcategory). The amendment would also restore the labor certification requirement for the second and third employment-based preference categories, but would not provide for a national interest waiver of the requirement. In addition, the amendment proposes an additional 140,000 immigrant visa numbers for employer-sponsored merit immigrants, and would create a quota exemption for certain highly skilled immigrants who have at least three years of U.S. work experience. Regarding the H-1B program, the amendment would eliminate the 20,000 ceiling on cap exemptions for foreign nationals holding advanced degrees from U.S. universities and create a new exemption for foreign nationals holding foreign advanced degrees in the sciences, technology, engineering or mathematics. The amendment would also dispense with the Senate bill's expansion of the recruitment and non-displacement attestation requirement to all H-1B employers.

$5000 shouldn't be a big deal for a quarter million community who's seeking some information on this...I guess either IV should start and campaign and collect money for this or we can saperately collect money for this..
Sounds great!
Where did you get this number from? :D:D:D:D

This is essentially what we got in July07, and this can be a great pain relief. Since it was done in July07, there is already a precedent for it?? Would it be an administrative fix then? Just a note , IV already has this as one of the things we are working to change in law, but I was wondering if it could be admin only fix.
This is different from what was done in July 2007. Back then all PD was current. This is to grant the ability to file AOS even when the PD is NOT current
