I think this an interesting discussion in the forum in a long long time. Allow me to jump in.
1. For those with labor stuck in BEC's, file PERM (2 months) +I-140 Premium Processing (10 days). Get a three years extension and move on to a new job. A new job always involve new challenges and learning is an excellent way to channel your energies. Point being there is a way out of the mess !!!
For others invoke AC-21 in I-485 stages.
2. Studying is another very good idea. What you study should be your personal decision. Doing MBA, or Acquiring new technical skill at local Universtiy or certifications (CCNA/CCIE/PMP). There are always things to learn and a good way to advance your career without GC.
3. For non-working spouses there is very little they can do, but Non-Profits is way to start and see if you can get an H1B later from the same or a new employer.
In nutshell you can cope up with this frustration by taking control of things that you can !!! Do not let this mess affect you more that what it should be.
For the rest let's help IV in any way we can. Have a good weekend.

Just called USCIS and told her that My application was mailed on Jun 28th and it got delivered on July 02. I also told her that my PD is May 2003 (hence i'm eligible to file in June)..
She told me that since i mailed it in June and this Notice goes into effect in July 02 my application WILL NOT be rejected... She asked me to wait for receipt notice :)
GOING CRAZZZZZZZZZZZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
hilarious!!!!

H1bslave,
Are uou IT manager or working in non IT field. If you are in IT and non manager then doors are closed for you to go to Canada.
If you have plans of doing an MBA in future, then Canada would be a better option than US. Otherwise as uma001 points out, doors are closed for most professions except 38 occupations.
H1bslave, in your case your PD is Sep 5 EB2. I see something in the distant horizon. PD of 2007 and beyond or EB3-India I see no hope.
Atleast you can survive on a lifeboat called EAD and AC21.

My wife is on H4. She has applied for SSN for stimulus package and got denial letter. How will be useful this letter to get SSN for her. Please advice.
Thanks for your great help.
Keep the letter and any other documentation you have. You may need them if this goes to court. I am still working with the lawyers on this.

even though I am in EB2..from my personal experience, the kind of IT contracts/jobs/assignments we (most of us) do, I dont think there is anything that an EB2 qualified can do which EB3 cannot do.
I saw threads (this site or elsewhere) where EB2 ppl felt superior and blasted the threads where EB3-EB2 conversions were discussed.
IMHO, I would always say, if it is legal and possible and beneficial, ppl should think of conversion.

I was told that people on H4 are not eligible for SSN, and if I want she (the person on counter in ssa office) can issue me a denial letter for that. It sounded useless to me that time, so I didn't bother to get that letter.
This idea sounds good to me, I'll go to SSA office again and try to apply. Offcourse they will say that they can't accept application. So I'll get a denial letter and I can appeal against that.
They cannot refuse to accept your application. Fill in the forms and send them in. They can deny your application and then you can appeal. If they refuse to accept the application, you have two options. You can contact your congressman and complain. You can file a discrimination complaint with the SSA ombudsman. Here is the discrimination form.
https://ssa.gov/online/ssa-437.pdf
Finally, if you believe you have been denied your rights because you are an immigrant, you can contact your local ACLU and ask them to represent your case. As a last resort, you can file a lawsuit at the federal district court. The filing fee for this is $350. However, I hope we are all doing this to exercise our rights rather than for the money. At least that is my motivation.
In my case, the first time I called, the person hung up on me. But I did not give up. I got them to accept the application and it is currently under reconsideration. I was also able to get a response from the Regional Office. So far they have not addressed any of the points I made in the original case as described in the OP. I expect they will continue to ignore their own laws and regulations, until I appeal this to an administrative judge, who will make a legal ruling.
BTW: All this costs you nothing but your time.

Shows you the general herd mentality on this forum. As long as everyone is thinking the same way, everything is great. If you differ, everyone will call for a ban on you. There are lemmings everywhere. Unfortunately, I had to come to this forum for news. I have never seen such a bunch of dimwitted people at one place...
I generally really like this place but for the past week I have had about 5 moments where I've sat at my computer with complete disbelief at seeing people get banned or yelled at in mass just for being pessimistic or for not agreeing with others' opinions. You'd think it'd be due to cursing, or anti immigrant feelings, or constant spamming/waste of posts, etc, but no, all you have to do is disagree with people. Now who's this guy who inspired the flower movement and what was he about?? right.

I am not on AF payroll, so please don't use your choicest abuse on me if it seems like I may be defending their actions a bit here. What I really want to do is give my experience with AI and the facts that comes sout of it and see if you would agree something similar could have happend with our fellow citizens on AF.
I was travelling on AI ORD-MUM via FKFT. Similar to what happend at CDG airport, just minutes before my plane was about to land at FKFT, the right engine shut off and at FKFT airport, it was reported that a mechanic from London etc will have to fix it. After 3 hrs it was reported that it cannot be fixed and a new plane from somewhere in Europe will have to come and carry us to Mumbai. In the meantime they gave us coffee and fruits. Old and people who were less able got some blankets etc to lay down, but in general, mist of them were just loitering inthe airport. AFter 5 hrs or so, all US passport holders (and of course EU) were told, they could go out and stay at a hotel and come back next morning, which would be the earliest the plane would take off. All the Indian passport holders were told,we could not go out due to visa restrictions. But AI started negotioations with the Polecie of Germany to see if we could get some type of temp visa. 12 hours after the start of the ordeal AI was able to obtain a group visa for us at midnight from the German Policei. Note that most of the admisnistartive work to get the visa was really managed by the Indian passengers themselves. Ther was probably 1 AI personnel to do/direct some of the things, but after a while the polecie started talking surectly to us on next steps.. All through this we went to have 3 scerurity checks at different points in the airport. We were put in the same hotel ( as swanky Marriott in heart of FKFT) as the US/WU citizens. We spend the next 36 hrs(yea, there was no plane from Europe to carry us) in the hotel before we got a plane from Mumbai to take us back.
So putting all this in context, I was happy that AI did help us when the situation was dire.with hotels and food etc. But they cannot help you with the Visa situation. I am assuming that it was the same predicament for AF. I agree not treating the pasengers well in terms of politeness, food , temporary lounge etc is not an excuse, esp at CDG which is AF's home.

Reallocation of Immigrant Visa Numbers
Immigrant visa quotas would be substantially realigned under S. 1348. Our current law provides for a baseline annual quota of 140,000 immigrant visas for foreign nationals immigrating on the basis of employment. In the past several years, a backlog has developed in several employment-based immigrant categories, with multiyear waits for some prospective immigrant workers. The Senate bill would, in the first five years after enactment, increase the quota for merit-based and employment-based cases, in part to address existing backlogs. An estimated 247,000 numbers would be available for work-related immigration. Beginning in the sixth fiscal year after enactment, however, the quota would drop to 140,000 numbers per year. This level would remain in place for at least two years, until approximately the eighth year after enactment, when the quota would rise to a baseline of 380,000 per year, with additional numbers made available for previously undocumented immigrants who become eligible to apply for permanent residence.
Is the interpretation of current Bill (without amendment) is correct for the work related immigration?

Thank you very much to the above for your replies. This is very helpful.
A couple basic questions:
a) What is AC21? Is it a form I send to USCIS?
b) What is an RFE (re: I-140)?
Many thanks!

knowDOL, could you please tell me what comes after the Labor cert. until the Employment Authorization (that will let me work)? Thanks.
I know nothing about the law, but as far as I know today the democrats are trying to pass a bill in which the people living illegaly for over 2 years can apply for temporary working visa that will let their spouses work (nothing wrong with that, just the exclusion of the H-4s as spouses of temporary workers which are the only ones not allowed to work). If they do not get 60 votes today, it passes tomorrow to a compromised bill that it says that if you came to US before Jan 1, 2001 you can apply for the work permit, and the green card later and then the citizenship. If you came between 2001 and 2003 you have to go back and get a work permit and come back, and if you came after 2004 no special treatment. since nobody has included in the ammended bills the H-4s it cannot be discussed tomorrow, but I do not know what is the procedure to get a bill considered and debated, there is a bill that considers the H-4s right to work and it is called TALENT "Through the Advancement of Legal and Educated New Talent.” but who knows if it will get considered.
May be the people from immigrationvoice can let us know what is the procedude to get the H-4s work authorization considered, thanks.

I doubt if the house is going to toe the senate line on the CIR. The new bill that has been introduced in the House is seen as a rebuke to Bush, directly contradicting the Senate version. I think this CIR will be killed in the house if it somehow passes the Senate.
http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-immig20jun20,0,3608273.story?coll=la-home-center
That is another HR 4437 in the making.
The House leadership is so silent in this issue, its hard to find out what Speaker Pelosi and Maj. leader Hoyer want to do. The only thing they have said is "Illegal immigration is a problem and we need support of 70 Republicans to schedule an immigration bill". That's it. Nothing new. No comments, no discussions, nothing.

With the free riders coming on this site , the only things thats going to increase is website hits not the contributions.
We can put a poll to take common consesus.
Just my 2 cents..

I don't know the history of BigTime007 postings. Maybe he has said some things in the past that lead to the ban but his most recent post which got him banned seemed just like venting and nothing more.
What I do find annoying though is when ppl whose PD's are in 2006-2007 tell ppl rotting in BEC to "enjoy the ride". I have seen a few threads in the past where someone stuck in BEC was just venting and then ppl come along and tell them to "be happy for others". I don't get it. How is a person who is stuck for years, sees ppl with later cases get interim benefits, supposed to feel happy knowing they will still be stuck. :confused:
I think all these poor souls are looking for is a few words of sympathy and company of ppl in similiar situation (not very different from ppl complaining about retrogression mind you). If we can not do anything to help ppl stuck in those blackhole let's not rub salt into their wounds.
Lastly, regardless of whether you are stuck in BEC or expect to be stuck in retrogression for the next few years, there is no reason to be uncivil.
