I agree farming is fun! I did farming when I was young back in INDIA!
Recently I toured entire US except a few states by road. I saw people doing farming in huge lands like other professions. I saw one community from india owning lots of motels/hotels! To my surprise 20/25 motels we stayed were owned by people of indian origin and most were immigrants.
To all who claim to be stuck in GC queue I strongly suggest a US road trip. It will show you parts of USA which you have not seen as well as relax ur mind.
Agree... and this will also increase your awarness. It's a beautifull country and you will enjoy the diversity and resourcefulness. Go mid-west!

I guess My interview didn't go as expected.
20) I told security that, we had finished our interview and officer forgot to return our I-94..they insisted that we shud take infopass and they wont allow anyone to go back..I had to really argue with them (I decided I have nothing to loose..anyway 485 is screwed and so stood there asking them to let me in)
21) After consistent nagging, the security guy took our passports, interview response letter(After interview if your app doesn't get appproved they willgive a kind of reciept saying u attended the interview..blahblah) and went in
:confused:
Thats v Brave of you bordering on desperation and frustration....But anyways it worked out and thats good . Congratulations again and it is a matter of a few days for you. Do not forget IV
Also , This made me think of a shayarithat fits you right now but maybe not the rest of us ...Here it goes

Translation: (The fun in getting the card is dismal..... compared to waiting for one)

Can we propose a bill which would give us - the honest, sincere, law abiding aliens - a time bound path to Green Card and Citizenship?
If you are serious about your proposal - please reach out to IV core and ask them provide the necessary guidance to take up this effort.
FYI - it's not easy to propose a bill but Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Alabama) is your best bet. As much as you can lobby with his legislative office, you'll gain traction on your proposal. Good Luck!

Guys,
My lawyer applied for my visa an 23rd Apr under the masters cap. I haven't received The receipt yet. I am wondering if there is anyone on the similar lines. Please reply or is it only me with one such case. I know USCIS has said that they need till 2nd June to resolve the situation. My case is with the vermont center.
I also have my OPT case pending there. It was filed in the first week of May. I have been told that it takes around 90 days for it but sometimes it also takes place early. Please advise.
Thanks
Sabhay

First of all, welcome to IV!
So far there is no information about how many H1B applications have been filed under US Master's or higher quota, but there is a rumor that it may reach as early as this week (I can't provide you a source for this rumor).
There is no tracking facility provided by the USCIS, however they will issue new release if the cap is reached. Note that the USCIS has to go through all the petitions they received so far to estimate how many of those applications fall into this specific category. As of now, the USCIS is accepting new H1B petitions falling under master's quota.
You may want to re-enroll as a student at one of the universities after June'08 to maintain your status, if you can not file for new H1B this fiscal year.
Hope this helps!
Do you think that all applications filed under Masters quota from April 2-6 will be accepted? Do you think people whose applications reached the USCIS on April 6, stand a chance under the Masters quota?

You know what. I would like to donate something to IV this holiday season. I have a Wii gaming console that I bought earlier during the year but never actually got around to play it much :)
I want to donate that to IV. There are a couple of ways you can get your hands on this amazing machine, PM me and I will mail it to your address, you send the retail value of a Wii, to IV as donation. Or we can set up an auction. Highest bidder gets it. Mind you this is just for donation purposes. I won't make any money out of this. You will get a gaming console and IV will get some donation.
Lemme know.

jsb,
Now I think some major clarifications are needed here. The Receipt Date (RD) that is printed on the I-485 receipt is the date whenever queuing according to RD is needed. This is THE date wherever a FIFO is required and is as assigned as soon as the envelope containing the I-485 is received.
The ND only represents the date data-entry is made. This is the date which is mentioned erroneously as "received date" on the USCIS online system. Now this thing has been mentioned at USCIS liaison meetings by center directors and thro' AILA several times (I will post the reference as soon as I find it).
That said whenever I talked to NSC officers (not the National Customer SC non-officers or regional call center IIO's or Infopass ignoramuses) ..officers who personally were aware of the going on's at the service center they said the Notice date does not carry any value for case adjudication priorities and the CLAIMS 3 systems only sequences (or sweeps as they call it) as per the PD and RD (when needed).
Further, since I see all the notes made for my approved I-485 (thro' FOIA) including the worksheet completed by contractors. I clearly do not see any notations mentioned with reference to the ND on it...
That said, for the OP, since your RD is very close to the "official" processing date there are all chances that your application might have already gone under the eyes of a CAO (Center Adjudication Officer). Call NSC directly and ask since you are so close and especially since your date is going current next month....you want to make sure that your file is either pre-adjudicated OR assigned to an officer.
I can tell you this that i talked to representative at TEXAS SERVICE CENTER (TSC) and he flat out told me that the RD of my case is Oct 10, 2007 however the receipts i have state a RD of Aug 3rd, 2007 with ND of Oct 10, 2007. I asked the TSC rep about this and she kept saying the date keyed in our system is Oct 10, 2007 and that is the date we go by.
I have asked my lawyer to send a formal query and have also sent email to TSC after talking to National Service center as NSC recommended me to send a letter to TSC. My lawyer believes they will honor Aug 3rd but if i do not hear anything i will take INFOPASS and drill it down.

I totally agree with you my friend.
I came across this website last year in November. I got active in December, and contributed, and tried to get active in my state chapter.
When I come across posts that want to remove country caps, or some other measure that is going to be harmful to me, I have to stop and ask myself if I am shooting myself in the foot by supporting IV.
Its not about whats fair. Nor about what common sense is. Its about self-interest.
If we are increasing the size of the pie, then it benefits me (ROW) to be here. If we are to fight each other over crumbs, then it doesn't.
Alisa,
what should prevail is a matter of perspective. If you are an Indian then skill should prevail, if you are not, then of course it is the other way around

Thunderbold, Sorry for your situation. Here is my observation/suggestion.
Being an immigrant you have broken the law by hiring someone to work illegally. Didn't you and your wife break the law?
You have already witnessed a child abuse and now pondering whether to report this to a law enforcement or not. Again you are breaking the law by not reporting a child abuse. Remember, abetting a crime is also a crime.
This country has given us so much including good wealth and health(except GC) and we enjoy every thing, but in return what we do is to do these kind of illegal activities.
This country let us and our spouse to work, make hell lot of money. I am not saying we are making easy money, but after having two incomes, we run around with coupons and look for cheap things or do things that are cheap. WHY?
What are we going to do with that money man? This is nothing but a greediness.
Anyway, your child has gone thru a nightmare and as a parent/father you MUST report this to a law enforcement office. You can not let this child abuser go scot-free.
Note: When you can hire a nanny that is legal/citizen for $350/week, then why did you hire someone illegal?
Thats absolutely correct.
And we are sending letters to USCIS saying they don't follow AC-21 rules (not law) properly !!!

That is interesting. The steps that we followed were the ones told to us by the DC embassy. I think the only difference between your case and my wifes case is that her passport had just her First Name under "Given Name" and her "Surname" was blank. I think in your case you have the First Name and Last Name combined under the "Given Name" and "Surname" is blank.
I just spoke to Indian consulate, NYC. The procedure to correct the last name is very simple. All you need is an Affidavit from the person (Signed in US, saying that you are correcting your name.), 4 photos and a copy of 797 or Visa. No need of advertizements, or Indian affidavit.
Please note, this is applicable only if,
In your passport Surname is Blank
Given name has <first name><last Name> (and all spelling etc are correct)
and you want it to be corrected to
Surname <last Name>
Given Name <First Name>
They will issue a new booklet with corrected name. It's same day service in NYC.

But how can that be unless we r mistaken about the category EB1 may be.
How can there be RD/NDs of 2008 as far as I remember only 15 or 30 days of July were open for filing I-485 after that dates had retrogressed......
If what u're saying is true...the whole process is as random as possible....
SoP
These are PDs in 2003 or before Apr 2004 cases. VB in Oct 2008 as well as in Oct NOv 2007 was at Apr 2004 thus these guys got approved even though the RDs were in late 2008. I am not sure what the processing times were in Oct NOv 2008 but these were certainly not in 2008 i.e. the processing time must have been in 2007.

I wonder where does people come up with such detailed info from. federal felony, lose your property , wow!!!! Even big corps hiring illegals getting away with just fines. Law Enforcement do not worry about the immigration status of the person. I know 2 incidents where my friends got in to car accidents with illegals . the other parties had no license, No id and No insurance. In both cases the cops weren't even bothered about their immigration status even though it was clear that they are illegals. cops gave ticket in some pseudo name they gave and they got away with no trace left.
Yes. Thats a little strong vocabulary. But he is not completely incorrect.
When cops caught illegals, what you have mentioned is correct. The situation is very different when they see a legal, non-immigrant commiting a very small violation. You will see a more strong vocabulary from them which you could not get meaning in any dictionary. Of course, you can get out of this, but not by yourself, but after paying a lot to a lawyer.

What the first post might mean is this.
DOS has already allocated the available visa numbers for this fiscal to qualifying pending cases. There are are no more visas left to allocate.
It is still completely possible that there are ~ 14,000 pending cases with visas already allocated - simply awaiting approval by USCIS.
NO NEED TO PANIC
The original post means nothing - IT IS NOT NEWS
Sorry for all the color - just trying to allay fears.
