Oh Boy!, I feel like hugging you (Jadu ki zappi). By the way my story is very similar to you
Came to USA in 1999 to do MBA from a top US school. Joined a multinational org in 2001, filled my labor in 2002, got laid off in 2005, Filled my another labor in 2005.
But look , I am cool!:)
Frist, sorry for the confusion. I do have a 05/2007 PD at Atlanta PERM center. I came to the country in 1999 for grad school, started working with OPT in 2001, converted to H1 in 2002, laid off in 2002, started working again in 2002 with a new employer, filed labor in 2004 and got stuck in BEC ever since. The employer refused to file PERM, so I had change to a new company in 2006, and had PERM filed in 2007 and got stuck there again. Your are right, I am technically not in BEC, but psychologically I always feel I am in there.
I did not know what was 'disruptive' and 'inappropriate' about what I said. This is a board for BEC victims, so BEC victims are not allowed to express our frustration? I just expressed my depress and my concerns over how much this will retrogress the PD without targeting anyone. When tons of people run in front of our queue and shut us out in cold, we are supposed to 'enjoy the moment' with them? If so, when USCIS said no one can file 485 on July 2nd, why none of the people enjoy the happiness with those who already filed, because that will make their processing time much faster. People said we should feel happy for those who can file, because they now can get EAD/AP for their spouses, as if our spouse do not need EAD/AP. And as a result of this total mess, I don't think we'll have hope in another several years to see the date current.
IV core keeps telling us, BEC is always on their agenda. Really? If they did not even understand our pain and consider our frustration a disruption to people's happiness, how can we expect them to help? I still think IV is a great org, as it's the first such organization to speak out for legal immigrants. But when it comes to BEC victims, I did not see IV changed anything, or intend to change anything.
btw my original ID is still being banned

There is something with the french language it self. All the people who speak french as their native language, tend to be a$$holes, of varying degrees. This true of the french people and the francophone Quebec people inCanada and the French speaking Swiss. I say, stop flying AF, screw them. It is they who need us, not the other way round

Yes that is true. They are lobbying strongly for H1b though they are supporting GC increases. Actually with H1b you can stay unlimited years if you apply gc. So there is no urgency for corporations to resolve the issue. They do not have fear of losing you as you are going to stay in USA until you get green card
You are right, but they do have some or may be a little more interest in the GC process too.
1) Because they are paying a lot of money to these consultant companies which they want to reduce.
2)Come to wall street, you will see so many consultants that are needed here to keep this economy running. A high number of H1-B will definitly reduce the price but still they will not get what they want meaning a permanent employee on a lesser pay. Tech companies cannot hire a person permanently because he is stuck with his employer who has filed his GC.
The companies cant continue to pay a lot to these consultanting companies.
Secondly this country should attract good brains, who might not want to come here. Believe me my friends in india are happy there and do not want to come here. They are living in there own homes with families, enjoying every part of our indian culture and are happy.
If nothing really works out here I will be looking out for an oppurtunity back home.

for all those who complain, and say the IV core doesn't do anything. the very reason you are expression your opinions, and most everyone getting advise is because the IV core took pains to set up this forum. It takes great deal of effort, time, money, sacrifice to do something productive and useful for the masses.
If you are too much worried or frustrated with the IV core not sharing info with you, why don't you take the pain of starting a forum of your own, and see how many people will join that. You will understand what all pain you will go through.
Personally I am a donor, because I understand the sacrifice people make to get this thing going. I know nobody is making money out of my donation 'coz they'll be in deep trouble for doing that. And I am not going to complain because I am not being informed of all the actions going behind the scene. I trust the core for doing the right thing which is beneficial to all. There are few core members who have already got the GCs but are still working on this effort.
So my humble advise is "pls don't complain...nobody is under any compulsion to contribute or do anything. The request is out there for all but it's upto you to act".
---------
If you feel discriminated against, pls feel free to lodge a complaint with the DOL or USCIS (just kidding this part alone).

I have already send an email...I'll post the reply (If I get one).
Folks, I got the response from AF.
This is what I sent them:
Your message............................ : I would never ever fly Air France, because I am a resident of India and your Airline treat Indians very badly, discriminating because of the country of citizenship and color. Shame on you for making 55 Indians wait in the airport for more then 12 hrs while the rest of passengers (non-indians) were arranged to go and stay in a hotel. Shame on you for ill treating the passengers in your Country (Paris, France). 1 less customer for you Air France!!! My suggestion: Change your attitude. Don't give substandard treatment to non-white passengers.
This is AF response:
Claim No.38-----
Dear Mr -------,
Thank you for your message. On behalf of Air France, I apologize for any difficulties caused by this unfortunate incident.
Flight AF 218 from Paris to Bombay, operated by an Airbus A330 with 169 passengers and 12 crew members on board, left Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport at 12:45 on 10th May and returned at 20:06 on the 10th of May, as while en-route the pilots noticed some vibrations from the Cargo hold, which could not be checked during the flight.
At Paris-Charles de Gaulle, under the supervision of competent authorities, checks were carried out on the technical state of the aircraft but no abnormalities were found.
Passengers with a valid transit visa were put up at nearby hotels for the night. Also despite the fact that transit visa�s are issued by the immigration authorities, Air France staff mediated the issuance of visa�s which turned out to be a time consuming process. Needless to say passengers were taken care of by the Air France ground staff who spoke fluent English and passengers were also provided with food and water.
All the passengers were transferred to another Air France aircraft the next day, flight AF 218A which left Paris-Charles de Gaulle at 14:15 and reached Mumbai safely. Air France regrets any and all inconvenience caused to the passengers due to this incident. At all times, the main concern of Air France is to ensure the security of passenger.
I do hope that the above explanation will help soften the negative impact of this situation and hope to have the privilege of welcoming you aboard Air France in the future, to your entire satisfaction.

Logiclife - Me and my Attorney - had some email exchanges about all this stuff and she compliments all that IV has done and says we must educate people about advocacy
Maybe we should start with organizing some small events/seminars to spread awareness on what can be done and how important advocacy is, most people think that it does not make a difference. We could rope in local organizations

I guess we all have problems with USCIS, either with their inefficiency (eg. receipt delays during July Fiasco), or sometime with their super efficiency (EAD's getting approved too fast):D
That's true. It was observation that paper based filing taking 25 days and e-filing taking 50 days.
Still 10 days to receive mails. We may have several such cases.

Even if they approve the GC, they can always revoke and ask you to return the card. This has happened somebody, I don't remmeber which forun I read about it. Call them up and inform them that your PD is not current. You can even go to local ASC and talk to an IO. If you have an attorney, inform him/her.

Showdown on Immigration
Marc Cooper
The good news is that after twenty years of inaction and demagogy, the US Senate is considering sweeping immigration reform. Behind that effort is a bipartisan consensus that grew out of a confluence of disparate factors: On the right, American business, desperate for low-wage and unskilled service workers, was clamoring to legalize the immigrant labor market; on the left, organized labor and liberals wanted an end to the illegal status of so many workers. And the sheer number of illegals now living in the United States--three times as many as a decade ago--demanded that something be done.
The bad news is that after arduously fighting its way to the top of the national legislative agenda--Senate majority leader Bill Frist fixed March 27 as the deadline for the Senate to come up with a bill--reform now threatens to be dead on arrival. Intransigence by the Republican right and a failure of nerve by Bush may have doomed a tenuous, years-long push to rewrite a current policy mired in denial and hypocrisy. "We may be on the verge of seeing the Republicans do to immigration what Hillary Clinton did to healthcare in the 1990s," said a prominent immigration attorney. "Set it back several decades."
(The ugly - expected to drag till Nov 06 - this line is my comment)
No one is willing to guess what will come out of the Senate process, no less out of any conference measure that would have to bridge the gap between the Senate and the draconian Sensenbrenner bill, already approved by the House. And if the process drags on closer to the November elections, chances for significant reform will dim considerably. Republicans, and especially the President, will be reluctant to further aggravate their internal party divisions. And even if Bush regains his confidence in pushing for reform, will Democrats--with their eyes now set on winning in November--really be ready to line up behind him?

I have filed my I-140 through company A and waiting for approval but now I want to get my H1-transfer to non-profit organization(company B). Can I do my H1 transfer to company B and keep my Green card process continue with company A. Also this company B is paying less salary then company A , will this effect my I-485
Also how safe it is to transfer H1 from profit to non-profit organization. What if tommorrow I want to get H1 transfer back to profit organization.
Some people say that H1 transfer for profit organizations fall under H1 transfer cap. Is this true?
My wife is currently with Employer A on her 7th year H-1B which is valid till Sep 2009. She also has her approved labor cert and I-140 from this employer, but decided to continue on my I-485 application. The I-140 however is still valid.
She now wants to change jobs to Employer B using H1 visa transfer. I am guessing she will need to include a copy of approved I-140 with her H1B transfer application. But Employer A is not providing us a copy of the I-140 approval.
Can someone please advise what we can do in this situation? Is a copy of I-140 critical in this situation? Or just a copy of online approved status will be sufficient? Any other ideas?
Thanks!!!

Someone please explain this to me,
The labor certification for a EB visa is based on a job/position requirement.
What is the intent of EB based GC?
How long is the person expected to the job for which the LC was approved?
Does that clock start when the LC was approved or when the i485 was approved?
If there is an drive for this effort, I will contribute.

"On April 27, 2004, the Ombudsman sent an information request to USCIS for a breakdown of data for pending employment-based applications for adjustment of status to be broken down by preference classification, priority date and country of chargeability. This request attempted to reflect similar data contained within the Immigration Annual Statistical Handbook, Chart 5, for completed cases. The Ombudsman�s interest in pending employment-based workload is in part a reflection of the broader issue relating to USCIS� ability to support the Department of State in accurately forecasting immigrant visa requirements and the visa issuance process."
"This update will enable USCIS to identify 100% of the pending employment-based visa cases. It is anticipated that this exercise will be completed by April 28, 2006. Once this exercise is complete, USCIS will be able to extract data relating to the priority date, country of chargeability and preference classification. USCIS has already entered into discussions with the Department of State to provide this detailed information not only for pending workload but for visa regressed cases as well to allow DOS to accurately manage future visa allocations in regressed workloads."
[updated]
http://www.aila.org/content/fileviewer.aspx?docid=22650&linkid=162315
so are we getting anything different from what the ombudsman has already requested (and received?)
Didn't we request for the same information, other than priority date stuff, that Ombudsman was looking for in 2006, does anybody know whether CIS provided him what he requested for?
Can't they reuse the same "program", as they call it, to provide us the info that we requested for? I would suggest to atleast include a reference to this Ombudsman's request in our reply letter.
I am in for contribution too.
