We all had a good time so far in US compared to the freshers .
It seems like any change in the immigration system is only going to land us in a worst position than we are in....
And looking at what is happening, I think it is naive to think we can influence the system to make it better for us.
Any noise we make seems to be making our opponents solidify and press us even harder.
I know this is not an upbeat comment that every IV member seem to expect, but this has been a depressing week, in an already depressing decade. :(

Recapturing lost numbers is not a permanent solution. Per country limit 7% is ridiculous. We need to make sure we are not discriminated against by the per country limit. Its not my fault that someone from Europe doesnt want to come here and not so many from Africa or south america qualify for the EB visas.

Hi All,
Would you guys are willing to share any sample letters that you have used to reply for your I140 Rfe from CPA stating that Company has ability to pay. I am not sure what are the contents it should have ?
Also does anyone know who can provide this kind of service?
Thanks

Guys, please make mention about the wastage of estimated over half a million visas over the last decade due to bureaucratic and processing inefficiencies at the USCIS, while we have been waiting patiently.
The best outcome for us in all honesty would be a visa recapture legislation to get those of us at the 485 stage out of the system.

You can ask all you want about not allowing porting from EB3 to EB2 or not letting keep the priority date in doing so. IV is not going to endorse it. Reality is job done by EB2 or EB3 especially in IT is very much alike.
Moving from EB3 to EB2 is for worthy cause of getting GC faster in legitimate and ethical way.
True. Us old timer EB3 folks should then ask for a salary based criteria to determine preference category ;).

SERVICE CENTERS HOLDING ADJUSTMENT APPLICATIONS
(Greg Siskind's Blog)
USCIS service centers are holding adjustment applications filed based on the initial July Visa Bulletin. Some applications received on the first business day were returned, but all applications since then are being held and not returned. One can speculate on the reason, of course. Possibly USCIS is preparing for a loss in litigation. Possibly they are preparing to cave sooner. Let the speculation begin....

StuckInMuck thanks for the awesome compilation. I have a follow-up question to the guru's on forum.
I did an AC21 before my GC got approved. I did this on my EAD card and when I joined I filed my I9 form for taxes. Now after getting GC do I need to renew my I9 form or the old one stays valid?
Also since I am not with my GC sponsoring employer do I still need to follow the 6 months rule with my current employer since date of approval?
Also can we move this compilation to IV Wiki?
#1 You need to update the I-9 form of verification because previously you employment authorization was the EAD card now your employment authorization is the GC card.
#2 First of all there is no 6 month rule. Secondly even if theoretically there is a undefined period it does not apply to you anymore since you are no longer with your GC filing employer.

PAPPU and Others,
We pay taxes PLUS Social Security for which we dont get any benefit. Dont miss that.
Let us be assertive about that.
we try to mention in our media interviews about us paying all the taxes and playing by the rules, still the anti immigrants pursue this misinformation campaign against us. We will all try to ensure that in every media interview we say that we pay all taxes..

I have seen your posts earlier, they are full of abuses, unjust full of most useless comments, let me tell you one thing, it is a very well known truth people who are most abusive on cyber space, are most fattoo & have been beaten up kind of people because they spend their life in threat but on cyberspace they become Lion. You are a typical Cyber Sher... But in real life I can guess....

So, is it a good idea to wait until next week and then decide the course of action.
Can we send another application just in case? Has anyone talked to their lawyer. As per USCIS, even if they send the application back, it might take 30 days to receive the application. (Understandable, since it is USCIS).
Any one has any clue what to do?
Viral,
There is not much we can do. From Greg's yesterday's latest response that there were very few which were returned/rejected on July 2nd itself and this thread proves that we are not alone ...there are so many and status is unknown. Matthew Oh is also suggesting that it will be receipted. I think we are all safe and with time we will get receipt. Nobody...none of the attorney's are suggesting refiling. Now the thought that whether my packet was properly filed or not? I think that will always be there in the back of one's mind but if the attorney has done his/her job correctly I think we should not worry. Its not rocket science and documents required for filing are well known...so I would discount this risk. It appears we are all safe because as we all know that no rejection notices have been generated, packets if returned should have come back by now as per Greg....All in all it all points towards our packets being on hold there at respective centers....but as you rightly pointed out..towards the last week of July keep calling centers to know..but even before that keep eye on check clearing as that by far is the best and earliest clue that all is well with the case.
Stay tuned and I will keep on updating here on this nice thread that you created...i really appreciate it. Keep up the good work buddy!!
Best Regards,

I am a registered member not contributing financially so far. I beliefs are as fake as "reverse brain drain". I am neither fake nor anti immigrant. I am not a citizen of the USA nor a permanent member to be anti immigrant. But I always like to try and see if I can walk a mile in their shoes before making tall claims about anything. I beleive the USA govt will really stop the reverse brain drain if it is that big an issue for them without even we trying to tell them.
There is so much lineup for GC's in the US answers your question on brain-drain. When someone talks of reverse brain-drain, that just means that there are some people who are not trying to stay back here, or are returning back if it does not work out quickly. It does not mean that no one is trying to migrate to the US, and there are long lines for migration from US to China/India etc. Facts speak for itself. What you say might happen in 50 yrs, but that is not the case today.

Thanks...but isn't the post mark date is when you send the mail ?
Right.But in your case, the guy who recieved your packet..might have mistakenly stamped the postmark date as the RD date . If so that is definitely their mistake. Wait a week or so to see what happens and if you dont' hear anything, take an infopass appointment to sort it out.

What do you guys think, should we get some flowers at the San Jose rally too and give them out to the supporters?
That will display continuity of thought with our flower campaign and weave that into the peaceful protest.

YTH.
Meanwhile, my lawyer today emailed & confirmed that the h1b will be valid even after using AP to travel and one can also renew or transfer the h1b. Even after the current I-94 expires obtained using AP, if one has still valid EAD or H1B I-797, he/she will be in status. However she also said that this is tricky situation and she could not find any CIS memo.
HOPE THIS WILL STILL SOLVE MANY PEOPLE'S DOUBTS.
Now I see no reason why anyone should NOT use AP to travel. Why should ANYONE waste money and time for restamping and take a small chance???
However as "Ramba" said in post# 27, it is still a small chance as no one knows what is exactly the CIS rules.
I agree..

I did not use to word wrong, so dont try to setup strawman arguments. I used the word unfair. And using the reverse argument that you use. It ain't "right" just become you support it.
And yes, it is unfair, because it is unfair for all those promised the current system, not because I think it is unfair.
Well, I could read out for you what you wrote. You wrote that - "I am EB3-India, yet I dont support the removal of per country limits, as there is a reason for the diversity rule, Indians and Chinese are currently on the wrong side of the equation so it seems "fair" to remove the quota."
Does that ring any bell?
And, if everybody was promised the current system, then there should never be any change, ever, because whenever you make any change, it will be unfair to the people who are waiting at that time, right? Even the increase in numbers or recapture is unfair because when we applied, we did not know if recapture will happen, right? So why change. There should be absolutely no change because my galactically stupid friend sc3 thinks he was "promised" something. Open your eye, there was no promise made to you or to anybody else, the system has evolved and will continue to evolve while we continue to wait for approval. Its ok if you don't believe in evolution theory, maybe that evolution thing is also "unfair" and "wrong". You see as we all continue to learn, we all continue to improve ourselves and our surroundings from that process of learning, but there are some who do not want to improve anything, inspite of learning. Here you can argue that learning process is at different level/speed for different people. So that would be quite understandable.... you know what I mean
