Hi,
I Filled 485+EAD+AP in July fiasco with old fee structure, In July 2008 filled AP+EAD with new fees.
Planning to file AP alone for 2009, I read somewhere that if you paid new fee's for AP then you won't get charged next time.
I am not sure whether I need to pay AP fess again this time or not?
Please share your exp
Thanks

I had hoped to embarrass the government further by exposing the connection to a known "hate group," but the media has refused to report that part of the story. If I could get the media to expose the racist origins of this law, we might have some hope, but don't count on it.
The next phase is to focus on legal options.

Welcome back :)
First off it is quite frustrating with people not participating and not putting their money where their mouth is. However, on a constructive note, screaming at people for behaving the way they are behaving rarely gets them to meekly surrender and start doing the right thing. Whether people do it out of their own free will or after persuasion, it take courage for people to participate. What works is to look at the problem and not to personalize the issue. So poor participation is the issue. If you are consistently not getting enough people to attend then it makes sense to delay the frequency of the meetings as one option. The other option is to call people and ask why they were unable to attend and give them a chance to come for the next meeting. Maybe the projection of rounding up x people was based on poor assumptions. So setting realistic expectations and then building momentum from there is the key. This is a dry tough fight. We need to set up tangible goals which break the vision down yet show the grassroot level people how the baby steps will lead to success. Most people in my opinion, back off because they do not see a realistic connection between the baby steps and the final vision. I think if we treat this like a challenge and try to understand the underlying problems, this movement will have a better chance at success. Regards, JH
P.S. My apologies for offering unsolicited advice. Please feel free to ignore. and understand that my intentions are good.

Is there a way to calculate the number of visas used this year? and how many are remaining? Plus how many are waiting?
Getting too anxious:(
About 50k might be remaining visas alloted for EB2 India. These 50k are the spill overs from EB1, EB2 ROW and Family Based Unused Visas as well.
In July 2007 Fiasco there have been received about 300k 485 applications. And out of that Say 200k belongs to EB3 because in EB3 it includes India and ROW also. Where as In EB2 its only India and China. Because in EB2 ROW is already current. So I presume about 100k applications are from EB2 and waiting for visa numbers. So this year 50K spill overs +9,800 rgular allotment for EB2, totaled about 60k. So 60k of this year and next year clears off all EB2 applications and make EB2 dates current.

That's why there is a saying that you should never watch sausages and laws being made.
The Cantwell amendment and Lieberman amendment will fail to pass the vote. It doesnt matter whether its ordered to lie on table or whether its ordered to take a nap on the table or have some lemonade on the table. And it doesnt matter what any of those "Motion to... " means.
Both of those amendments, if debated, will fail. It will take 10 seconds for Bernie Sanders, Ted Kennedy and Dick Durbin to scream on top of their lungs and kill it. And the reason is very simple. There is a massive H1B exemption ON TOP OF 180,000 QUOTA. People who have been so successful this year so far in restricting H1 and employment based GCs are not going to miss that nice little H1 exemption at the bottom of both these amendments. So stop scratching your heads over what the "lying on table" means, because whatever is lying on table is unpassable if it somehow awakes from the table and starts dancing in the well of the senate floor.

When I got laid off, my lawyer at the time told me that technically you are out of status as soon as you leave payroll. There was no such thing as a "grace period". I was advised to change my visa status to B2 (I think it was that) with immediate effect, if I could not find a new job within 2 weeks to complete an H1B "transfer". It isn't exactly a transfer of the visa, but what you would do normally when you are changing employers whilst on H1 B. I was told that the "maintaining status" was verified by payroll dates, so within the 2 weeks (I was paid bi-monthly) would be safest

I remember in one of Dem party primary debates there was a related question on immigration (general immigration) - Obama answered that in positive way and in fact brought up the legal/employment based immigration issue on his own and mentioned that it needs to be speed up the process and make changes so that fresh talent is attracted - ofcourse at the end he added that american interests have to kept in mind while coming up with employment based immigration system (I remember gist of his response not the exact one)- but his whole response was very positive and if I remember correctly none of other candidates even mentioned employment based immigration - they answered generic immigration (meaning illegal) issue.
Does this mean anything - not much. As someone already mentioned both candidates are in favor of legal employment based immigration and increasing it to some extent - or atleast give some token support for this. But both of them may not take any active stand to make it a priority item - because there are other issues that people (their voters) care more about now like war in iraq, economy, gas prices, health care etc. etc. Both of them may not touch immigration until later in their term. Inevitably when they do touch it - it will be in the form of CIR and it will be big can of worms. Presidents can set the agenda and may issue limited administrative orders - but the expectation that either McCain or Obama will come out for EB community and unilaterally increase the quote or issue an admin order to solve our issue is IMPRACTICAL - and wont happen.
Our best bet is something to happen thru Congress. And our best bet is thru some relatively non-controversial bill like HR5882 (not CIR) - yes its a stop gap measure but it does solve many of EB issues until a new CIR comes into play. If you remember the golden days of EB in early years of this decade are because of a similar visa recapture in last days of Clinton administration - we need something similar.

My GC filing company is not a non profit institution still my labor took 2 months and I 140 took less than 3 months.
Hello All,
I was reading the posts, I somehow believe there are some variations among EB2 categories, of what we all have been calling I,II or three.
It is not not primarily based on salary only, I believe, it has more to do with the nature of your job, job title, size of the company, type of company, for profit or non-profit.
My wife is a University professor, applied for our GC, EB2 India PD date august2007. We got our labor approved in a less that 2 months, we got our I40 cleared in 5 months, ( applied in January 08 got approved in June).
I believe , we are able to move so fast in this process was mainly because the type of company she works for, in this case the non profit institution.
Now at this point in time, I would like to ask all the gurus, are the dates going to move fast in next few months?
Thanks

I think a change of leadership of IV is critical if we have to get anywhere. IV has not been able to achieve a single thing in all of its existence. Not a single thing, nada, zitto, zapata. Not disclosing the issues they are working on, not disclosing how the funds are distributed, not disclosing the lobbyist they are using. Who in the world calls that leadership!
That is the reason that no one wants to contribute. First get some results, show people results for what they have paid for. Then ask for more money. Most people I talk to are confident that IV will achieve nothing given their track record. I tried to convince a colleague to join IV. He bet with me that they will not be able to achieve even this filing I-485 issue. He bet that he will join and pay if they did.
I know IV works like dIVorced wIVes club and saying anything negative is taboo. Anyone saying anything negative is crushed with (p)curses. Only good mushy things are allowed here. So here it is: We will get our GCs by the end of the month. Hallelujah!
But I am writing this for the benefit of IV and please take this as constructively as you can. As a member, I have full right to suggest a change of leadership when I think it can help.
Nice to hear from you.
Pls. update your profile so that you are not an annonymous member and can talk to you. We definately want your leadership skills and abilities since you have been with IV for past one year and seen how we have grown and struggled to reach where we are now. Do come to DC and help us. We need people like you to help us run around and meet lawmaker offices, contact other organizations, contact employers, communicate with IV members, manage forums, contact and manage media efforts, manage funds, manage lobbying efforts with the lobbyists, go to conferences and meetings to give presentations or to simply meet people hoping for help for our cause etc etc.
We are just overwhelmed with so many tasks and most of the above tasks happen during business hours. So we find it increasingly tough to manage both our jobs and IV work. We are trying to do all the above and have requested all members to actively participate in at least their state chapters to help us out. I am sure you must have successfully led your state chapter, met all your lawmakers from your state, contacted your employer for support and have enough management experience and drive to get something done.
Please contact us and we will be happy to discuss this exciting possibility with you.
Thanks

There is no dearth of ideas here, after all, these are certified advanced, highly innovative people. When an idea picks up enough momentum, state chapters can be an important instrument in ensuring participation. I hope you are a member yourself, and will update your signature to reflect it.

I was wondering if IV core had some time to analyze this bill and summarize it for their members like the previous version of this bill. Would appreciate a quick summary of this bill with Pros/Cons in this bill for our community.
Can somebody pls do this? The main thing that I am wondering is that if you cannot place consultants on client site on H1B then what will happen to them? How will big consulting companies(the likes of Wipro, Satyam) survive?
Any ammendment on this?

I cannot believe that after everything that's happened over the last year or so, out of how many thousands of members of this group - just 199 of us called??
What are we doing as a group of people? Is it such a wonder that this country isn't moving on our immigration woes when we ourselves won't pick up the phone and talk to somebody about our troubles?
Wow-talk about complete and total apathy....I'm ashamed on behalf of each and every one those people who think they'll let someone else solve their problems - in which case I hope they don't ever complain about their lot in life. They have no right to.
Absolutely shameful...
If this is the level of participation we cannot and should not expect any thing. Just think about this there are a lot of anti's out there and they can and will vote. to offset that the volume of calls from us the non voters has to be substantially large. I called got my wife to call and a couple of friends I will try and talk to all my friends in TX to call as well. But that will just no cut it unless all of these 24000 so called members (I do not consider passive readers members.) will call and get all of their friends to call. I promise you when we get that level of participation whoever be the president, whomever hold the majority in House and / or senate our bills will be brought on the floor will be voted on, and will be signed by the president!!!
But until we do not have participation our voice will be small and nothing will be done. And we will keep on waiting forever...
Now go ahead and give me red dots. but my only request is please call and get your Husbands/Wifes/GF/BF to call. I will be happy with red dots if you at least call.

You still have time to arrange your plans and attend! Here�s why you should come:
You have probably made up your mind not to attend the rally. Perhaps you think that already many people will attend and that one more or one less person (You) will not make a difference. But it will! In fact, let�s not even think about whether one more or one less person will make a difference. Rather, I invite you to think this way: Do it because it�s right! Do it for yourself! Think to yourself that you would do this even if you were the only person attending the rally. Think of Gandhi. Think of Martin Luther King.
You have been very frustrated for years with this broken immigration system, right? Perhaps you�ve been stuck for years, no raises, spouse cannot work, children aging out? How many times have you wanted to tell Congress what�s on your mind? This is likely your ONLY CHANCE to do so! Again, think of this in terms of you attending even if you were the only person attending. Attend because you are mad. Attend because you want to see change. Attend to make yourself visible, and make everyone out there know of your silent struggle. The silent struggle that you have had to put up for years. Even if that�s all you do, you will feel better. People will know the unfairness that you have been treated with! Attend because IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO! If your friends are not attending, try to convince them, but if they choose not to go, don�t let that influence you! Sometimes in life we have to do things just because they are right, no other reason. Will this rally work? Will lawmakers listen? Will my employer be mad that I took a day off? Will I have to spend $500 to get there? None of that matters! The only reason of why you should attend is because you have been abused, and you will not take it! You have dignity! You will go and tell Congress to stop messing with you unfairly. You have the power, freedom and OBLIGATION to do so! Your children will be proud of you. If you do not attend the rally, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime lost opportunity! LET�S GO! WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!
