I believe we are wasting our energy here. Quarterly spill over is already a law and we need to make DOS/USCIS to implement it. If we have some many people are ready to sue USCIS on country quota issue, why dont we use that energy on the low hanging fruit...
You may argue that only EB2 will benefit...but once EB2 become current, its going to spill over to EB3.

I have had all good experiences with fragoment till now, and I have been dealing with them for a couple of years now. They were very professional i should say. Again I work for one of the top 3 financial firms , and my employer has fragomen as preferred law firm.
I work for the Wall Street Investment Bank, I don't see any reason why Fragomen is a bad one, most of the banks deals with them.
Bad for some people, doesn't mean it's universal for everyone, for that matter that can happen to any law firm. :-):)

I can tell your case. If you apply now by EB you will get gc within 3 to 7 years time. If you apply by point system after 5 years of USA experience and you will have employer sponsor you will have 16 points more than those who are coming fresh to USA. So both point system and EB system you will get at the same time period. Process delay will be minimal as no labor or I140. But initial period there will be delays as it is entirely new and untested. We cannot compare EB and point system now. Only point system comes we will know the problems
Right now, in the EB based system, the employer picks the applicant, not the Federal Government. Also, under the current system, even if the country is limited by quota, it is a soft quota. No matter how you see it, the current system attracts the best and brightest and rewards only only those who are physically in this country with the GC (EB based). how can that be compared to the merit based system which you claim would attract the 80%? Any tom/dick or harry can apply from any country and get thru.
What do you mean by "process delay being eliminated"? It would take years for USCIS to come up with an easy set of rules. Again, the per country quota would kick in. It would take eternity to get a GC under the merit system. I dont see any "merit" in that.

Not entirely correct. When as you say this country treats all Employment based immigrants equally, why set quotas, why distinguish between EB1, EB2 EB3 etc.
The point is there are rules and they tend to favor certain applicants over others in the queue. More education generally does mean more skill. It does not always mean more pay, but this country has decided to use education and work experience as the criterion for EB category allocation.
How can you say all nations have an equal opportunity to immigrate to the USA. That is patently false and you know it. Now you can defend it and say it is the US right to set its rules the way it wishes, and I can respect that, but to say it is equal opportunity is wrong.
What I have said all along is that EB immigration is to redound to the benefit of US EMPLOYERS not you or me. That is why the rules were skewed so much in their favor. Now, we agree there has been some abuse in this system, by those this system was meant to help, however its purpose remains intact. The rest of the rules are secondary to this intent, but nevertheless important.
The USCIS/DOS set quotas for visa numbers because the United States does not want to be overwhelmed with immigrants. And these quotas are spread evenly through all nations and ethnic backgrounds. Considering the populations of the "oversubscribed" nations, this is justified. I can see where the immigrants from these nations feel "discriminated against" in the fact that they receive a smaller percentage (NOT NUMBER) of visas per capita than ROW countries. This does not make the system unfair. And if you think that certain countries get special treatment, think again; there are plenty of people in ROW (like me) who have been waiting for years as well!

I received Card Production Ordered email today for my EAD renewal. I hope I get the EAD for 2 years. Will keep you guys posted on the EAD validity once I get it.
I got the same email this morning and status said EAD was ordered on june 30th.
I am pretty sure we will get a 2yr EAD but will just have to wait 2 more days to confirm this.... I wonder if they are looking at the current status and if you are on h1b they are issued 1yr and processed it before june 30, while if you are currently on EAD, they kept them until June 30th.. I doubt it but just a theory...

If I am offending anyone who tries to predict on visa bulleting cut-off days, I am sorry for doing so in advance. The agencies involved in this process themselves are out of clue and it is clearly pointed out by ombudsmen himself. I am still puzzled how they derive the cut-off days every month without such statistics? In the past there were numerous statistics regarding the cut-off date prediction and not even came close to what is getting published. This is one department who defy any logic in determining the cut-off dates. I think it is mere waste of time and energy in trying to do so at our end based on my past experience.
Thanks

Transfer H1-b (dont have to apply for a new one)
: THIS IS COMPLETELY WRONG
I already posted this in another thread and I will post it again:
I am wondering when people will understand that H1B Transfer does not exist!
Everytime you want to switch employers, a whole new H1 must be filed.
People are always under the impression that because they already hold an H1, then it is easy to get "transferred" to another company.
In this case, the only thing you actually "transfer" is ...yourself and nothing else. The only advantage of already having an H1 is that you don't have to worry about the quota anymore, you are exempted from it.
Since you have to file a new case, approval can never be guaranteed and it is therefore always risky to switch employers (as soon as the new H1 is filed), without waiting for approval. Tricky stuff...
Check this from Murthy.com:
" Among the questions that often reach us, are those regarding H1B status and changing employers that refer to "transferring" the H1B. This term is frequently used, even by some immigration attorneys. The H1B is not actually "transferred" from one employer to another when an individual changes a job, however. We understand what people mean when they refer to an H1B transfer. We take this opportunity to explain the concept, though. This should help our readers to avoid misunderstandings as to procedure and requirements based upon the mistaken belief that the H1B is somehow transferable from one employer to the next.
�MurthyDotCom
When a person is on an H1B and plans to change employers, what technically is filed with the USCIS is a new H1B petition, reflecting a change in employment, generally with a request to extend H1B status. Again, with the exception of the foreign national employee, there is nothing that transfers from one employer to the other."

Isn't that good news? Atleast we wont have to redo the medical exams if that were true.. Or do you think this is a strategic move by USCIS to be immune from any lawsuits?
Hi guys,
I have just called the USCIS. They told me that the applications will not be rejected but just put on hold until our visa numbers will be avialiable ifor the nerw FY 2008.
In addition she told me that the Nebraska office is sending back the filing receipt to the applicants which it should not affect our h1-b visa status in case we are going to travel.
For the last part I do not believe her. Is there anyone else that can confirm that ?
Thank you.
Andrea

Now that it is clear that we can file 485 without 140 receipt notice, I want to know what you guys, who have not received 140 receipt notice yet, are planning to. Are you going to file 485 right now with the information insturcted by USCIS (brightly colored paper...)? Or are you going to wait for the 140 receipt notice until certain point and then, if you still have not received the receipt by then, file 485 with the information insturcted by USCIS (brightly colored paper...)?

I had gone thru a layoff experience 3 years back.
They laid my team off in April, but for some reason said that they will keep us on payroll till July (effectively we got a paid holiday for 3 months :-) ) and gave us severance on top of that.
I took the 3 months to do job search and started the new job in July (technically there was a month gap between when I stopped being on payroll and when I started new job).
Recently when I asked old employer for employment verif letter for I140, the letter said I was employed till July of 04.
In general my feeling is, as long as you have paystubs and employment verif letters that you can use to claim you were employed till a certain date, you should be ok.
How much of a grace period on top of that USCIS gives is a hard qn to answer (just like anything else related to USCIS) ?

One change I noticed.
Now people can continue in the old system if the I-140 was approved or pending before the first day of the fiscal year subsequent to the the bill being enacted. So if the bill is passed right away, you need to have filed your I-140 before Oct 1 2007.
Buehler : Thanks for the find. Can you quote it please, if possible?
