here is the thing folks, until now I found no place where it details what exactly has happened. some people say they were racially discriminated, some say they didnt have transit visa...no one exactly says what has happened...
that being said, I flew airfrance, as far as I remember, once and I swear i had no problems..attendants were every polite. Ofcourse on the ground in Paris, when I walked in to a store or whatever , the girl in the store just didnt ack' me when I was asking in English, who cares, I left the store. Other than that, no problems folks... but i do understand everyone would have a different experience...
ps: I just cant believe that AF still replied to the comment/feedback to the OP's "stop racism you.....", wow! that was something..you gotta give credit atleast for that folks..

My Mother in law is severely sick, and my wife needs to travel asap. We need to get her AP, as it's expired.
1. Is there an urgent processing option for the AP? And how ?
2. Can she travel on the receipt of application, and I can send the AP document to her by FEDEX?
Thanks,

Hi
I have a question with regard to AP renewal. My I-485 was sent to local office for interview in Feb 2009 and my case was preadjucated since the dates werent current , my card wasnt issued. I am in California. My PD is Nov 2005.
The question I have is, when I filing for my AP renewal , do I still send it to Nebraska or some other office? Since I dont know the location where my I-485 file is located as of now.
Any one who has renewed to AP/EAD after being called for interview at local office if they can give me any direction on this would be great. I asked my lawyer the same question he doesnt seem to have an answer as yet.
Thnks in advance.

The US Immigration Law is a nightmare.
Couple of years ago, I migrated to Australia.
The Australian laws are very clean and straight forward. There is only one application form with some very simple question and detailed instructions. Just fill up the form, enclose the necessary documents and fees. That's it. You are done. In due time they will let you know "YES" or "NO".
There is no need to feed fat-belly hungry sharks called "Immigration Attorneys" (of course there are exceptions).
Once your case is approved, you and your family are eligible for the all the rights (except Vioting Power) enjoyed by any Australian Citizen.
Once accepted, there is no official discrimination.
Here the US Government cries about anti-discrimination, human rights etc, but those are only eye-wash. They should take lessons from the Australians.

To make aware people around you that we Legals retaining US jobs in US itself and how we are contributing to US economy will work big way to us...
I work as a free lance s/w consultant & when ever I say I am on EAD for last 4 years, they usually ask how come I dont have GC for so long!! Thats the time I make them aware, how legals are law binding, tax paying community etc..etc...and that "DO" works..and they say that "Ya, this Congress/Goverment is working on "Illegals" but not on Law abiding Legals..!!!
Can we work on those lines.? To spread a word & make community aware that "Legals" are sufferes in the process of this political debate of "Illegals"?

I would definitely agree that even if CIR comes back it has lot of negative things for people who are comming legally like us. We need to think of a different strategy which does not require a legislation which brings lot of attention against us. I can personally say that I will atleast add 10 more members with recurring contributions in a short time. Right now I will double or triple by monthly recurring contributions. I do agree with the core members that we do need lot of money now to lobby. There are are communities which I don't want to say publicly - even though there are in small numbers they have laws passed in favour of them. It is very simple - we need the MONEY POWER

I would give some days to Attendees and particularly to IV core team to analyze the rally events, meetings in their entirty and come up with the conclusions mainly for 3 things. And I request everybody to funnel data to core team centrally and the same way conclusion and future action list funnelled to members.
- What we could REALLY achieve
- How loud we could be heard
- Any potential and positive impact in near future?
- Based on all of above making near future strategy
Note: One thing I want to bring everybody's attention that from November Elections will slowly be given priority by every media and so we may have to come up with careful strategy not having any conflict with election realted major events.
We look forward to guidance from Core!

I don't know if any one has noticed or would agree with me. But based on the numbers I feel USCIS is the real bottleneck in EB green card. They have somewhere around 250,000 EB visas available per year for the last severel years, but they were issuing only around 80,000 EB visas per year.
I bet they have only issued around 120,000 EB visas in the year 2006 (Oct 2005 - Sept 2006), even though the quota is around 250,000. (140,000 direct + 100,000 from family other category).
Unless we do something to fix this bottleneck, most of us are not going to see the GC. Even if the Congress raise the EB quote to 1 million per year with out any country quota, it all boils down to USCIS's usage of those available visas.
USCIS had given one week time to file for I-485 and then closed it. Later after the flower campaign they opened it up for a month. I mean to say, They had opened a small opening for us to get in. Now its our chance of how to get the opening bigger. We were successful by doing a flower campaign. We got to do more. The slot should be made more and more wider and should lead us to green card.

I still like the idea of the "Gandhi" character. 10 IV members could dress like Gandhi, practice some coordinate steps and go for a parate on July 4th. That would be a pacific way to demonstrate our frustration.
We just need to find 10 skinny, bald and friendly Indian male members. I am afraid that based on how this process has depressed our community, there are a number of us with the two former qualitities required.
I don't think you should solicit members on the forum without fully letting us know the overall tone and message of your film. Where will the film be distributed and how it will be used? Who is funding your film? Get in touch with Immigration voice organization so that they can help you and let the forum members know if we should help you and if you will convey the right message for us through your film.

I second this idea.
Why can't we move from a free service to a membership based and see how many people still continue ... evenif with 25K members it is only a handful who are active and part of the initiative ... so I would suggest to go for a membership ...
it could be a per month basis or pay a big amount and get membership for life or year ... say $200 for a year or $20 for a month ... we don't need the number/mass unless they are active in all way ... just my thoughts ... hope the IV core team will consider that ... enough of free rides ... now pay for it and get the access to forums ... :mad:

Excellent response. I have been a silent admirer of IV for some time. IV has represented the aspirations of all the EB applicants. people should understand that the US allotment of visas to foreign Nationals is only based on what is fair for the country (US). It does not matter to them to what country the applicant belongs but what matters is the qualifications and their benefit to the advancement of the US. I am appauled to see some of the members racheting up this irrational discussion about the spillovers when DOS clearly stated recently what the intent of the law was. the sooner they get over this issue, the better for them and for every one on the forum as the existing rules will NOT change regarding the spillover. we have to concentrate our efforts on how we can improve conditions for every body affected by this retroression. efforts aimed at one category and that too one country will almost certainy fail. I am also shocked to see a few EB3 I expressing anger over dates moving for EB2. personally if I see a person from my country getting his visa approved, then I would feel very happy for him even if I am waiting for some time. I know it will be difficult, but atleast spare some joy for your country men and women who are getting some well deserved relief after such a long wait. one of my old friends told me once "if you have a friend from India, don't rely on him to help you, because you will not get much help moreover some people will only try to pull you down, but if you take people from other countries, it is exactly the opposite as they try to help each other in every possible way". I agree that it is very distressing for every one that the dates are retrogressed, but now that EB2 has moved, all of a sudden some people woke up from a deep sleep and started making these arguments that have no legal basis. None of these people expressed their anger when EB3 ROW was being preferred over more qualified EB2 I and C and making EB2 unavailable. I know a lot of people from EB2 protested at this wrong interpretation of the law, but I don't remember anyone ever criticizing IV for not taking up their cause even though we knew all along that spillover from EB1 to EB2 retrogressed countries was the right interpretation of the law. now some people are asking IV to take up an issue that is straight forward illegal as was clearly explained by DOS in a recent bulletin. instead of wasting time and efforts on such futile suggestions, people should concentrate on making some constructive effort along with IV helping every one involved in retrogression.
you must know something i don't.
aman kapoor is the president and founder of iv- of course you can argue he now has his GC but that fact is he is still the heart and soul of iv and runs the organization on a day to day basis. he is EB3.
the "core group" does not much exist in practical terms right now. there is instead a large "leaders group" that helps coordinate actions and strategy.
this group has a lot of active members- and i find it "comfortable" to say that the majority are EB3. which may actually count for something- since i actually do know somethings you don't :-)
no one stops anyone from doing anything. but whatever you do (and yes you actually have to DO, not just keep talking), has to have a sound basis. Many of the suggestions put forward have flaws, and actually papu and others have been pretty helpful in politely helping to point those out and suggesting changes. of course reddog took objection even to that! incidentally, just for the record, you may want to look at pappu's profile . HE IS EB3!
so what do you want anyway? should we go tell USCIS that leftover Gc from EB2 ROW should go to EB3 ROW instead of EB2 I/C? what about the 28.6% that should belong to EB2? and since you are EB3 I- how does this help you in any way? or should we tell them to stop the preference catogories in INA and make EB1=EB2=Eb3? somehow i do not think that is going to fly.
where were you when USCIS implemented vertical spillover in 2006 and left EB2 I in a U state while giving EB2 Gc numbers to EB3 ROW?
did you object then? did you start a campaign? did EB2 I folks here start saying that iv did not care about them?
in 2007 ordinarily, (like 06) EB2 I and EB3 I would have got only 2,800 GC each. because of iv's efforts in reversing the july bulletin, EB3 I got a huge number of Gc instead. many more than any other category. i don't remember anyone else standing up and saying that this was unfair and that iv is all about EB3I. and that's what a lot of anti iv folks say. that iv is all about EB3 India. so this is very ironical.
and i see here a comment that every campaign has been bad for EB3 india.
i guess july reversal was bad. i guess the campaign for recapture is bad. and the 2 year EAD is bad too. not to mention the gathering support to end country quotas.
you opened my eyes :-)

My new target is 200. It was 100 before the deadline was extended.
58 collected so far (excluding the 24 letters at Fremont train station)
Besides, I prepare & mail about 20 envelopes a day to WH=> these envelopes contain letters coming in from several folks in CA.
This weekend, NORCAL will do not 1 but 3 drives:
Sunnyvale temple
Grocery stores @ Sunnyvale
Grocery stores @ Fremont
For more details, check out the latest messages on NORCAL yahoogroup!
After the last weekend drives in NorCal, my own tally rose to 151.
Actually anyone can spend an hour or two on this, and see how easy it is to score at least a hundred!

Just go to the USCIS office even if you do not get an infopass. Go with I-485 receipt, 2 passport size photos. If you go first thing in the morning, you might be able to get the AP issued to you the same day. MAKE SURE YOU TAKE A LETTER FROM THE HOSPITAL/DOCTOR STATING HER CONDITION. It can be a faxed copy.
