I totally agree with you viva...
Is this a solution to retrogression?
Oh my god...
USCIS please let our spouses work and take as much time as you want to give us the green card we are not in a hurry!!!!
How can anyone come up with these un realistic solutions man.
True true true This persons intension is not a GC but make money...
Please let us not go further into this, let us prepare ourselfs to fight for the I-485 provision that IV is working on..
We shall overcome
At least, he/she is trying to come up with a solution. Just not the kind that would help!!!!

Hi Mirchiseth,
Thanks for sharing the Info on your Case.
This is Indeed a very good news.
So far we have 2 Successful Cases wherein H1B Transfer was done
Successfully after Candidate Entered US on Advance Parole.
Hi All
I have been following this thread for the last few days and wanted to share some info. Hoping it would be useful.
I entered the country in Jan 08 using the AP while I was still working for my GC sponsoring employer. Then in June 08 I joined another employer by transferring my H1B to the new employer. I did have the option of using EAD but I wasn't sure if the renewal will come before the expiry of current EAD. So decided to transfer H1 and my new employer graciously agreed to it.
We did a premium transfer so got the approval in 2 weeks. Money does wonders (Almost like the proverbial paper weight with files). I confirm that the I94# number on I797 approval notice is same as the I94# number I got when entering the country in Jan 08.
So this should be a good news for folks who are trying to do the same. I am in a different boat right now. I have to travel to India this November. I plan to return using AP. But now my employer is different from my GC sponsoring employer. Another issue is that I am going only for two weeks while my wife will be in India till Mid Jan. So we will enter US separately using AP. Please share your thoughts if you have been in this situation.

Date and Time of Delivery matters.
All july 2ND FILERS... DOES THE DATE OF FILING(mailing date) MATTERS OR THE DATE OF DELIVERY MATTERS?
I think most cases delivered on July 2nd is filed on June 29th or 30th.

I hadn't heard about the new Memo..
Last I checked, I had namecheck pending too and it was pending for more than 6 months..
I can take up an Infopass to find out if its still pending.
If it is pending for more than 2 yrs, what are the next steps?
(Obviously 485 won't get approved if name check is pending)

I was just kidding on that. I would be more than Happy to see an EB3-I get GC before me with just even a day ahead of me. They are equally deserving.
On that, let's shake hands.. and keep up our friendly kidding.. it's a welcome change for our environment here in IV

Contrary to what most believe - Contributing is the easiest thing to do. Send some money and forget about it. And the most effective one too. Lobbying is IVs greatest tool to make changes in the legal system. If you still don't get it, you cannot get any law passed in Washington without lobbying. Whatever we do on the side is to help that effort.
Volunteering is much more tougher. By volunteering I don't mean giving the next Brightest Unworkable idea or the daily-dose of rants on an online forum. Volunteering in my world (real one) means sacrificing personal time (with family) for the greater good of a community.
Calling members, planning & conducting meetings, telecons, write letters to lawmakers and meet them, put IV booths in local events. In short, it's a thankless job. At the end of the day you're more hated than loved (ask Chandu)!
IMO Volunteering and contribution are not separate. It's member buy-in. Either you agree to a principle or you don't. If you agree, you'll contribute as well as volunteer (when you can). If you don't agree, you don't.

Folks,
There are many discussions on immigration (some in favor and some totally misrepresenting the legal immigration).Mind you many of the ordinary citizens are voting on these posts, which indicate the popularity. Obviously this is one way of increasing the popularity of posts highlighting our case (ala Digg)
Only a few of the immigration posts are addressing our pain points. One eg is something like: Please help the Immigration System
Please vote for them and champion the advantages for all by commenting and voting.
I believe at the moment this is achievable by all. Please act!

I, for one, am unable to join a state chapter, because , the nearest chapter is 400 miles and 2 states away. What good would it do to me to join something that I can never be part of. I wanted to start a state chapter here in my place, but I couldnt find any useful resources on how to do it. May be eb3_nepa has some reasons like it.
I was also unable to find a state chapter just a few months back. So I started one. Now we have around 60 members. Someone needs to take the initiative and set the ball rolling. That someone can be you.
Here's an excellent resource on how to start a state chapter.
http://anilgeneral.blogspot.com/2007/10/how-to-start-and-maintain-state-chapter.html
The Admin Fixes letter campaign was a good initiative. But, the target date got moved twice, and now I dont even know when the end date is.
The end date is the date when the fixes get passed.
IV moved the target dates to get more letters from members. It paid back richly as thousands more letters were got through the hardwork of volunteers who collected these letters. As pointed by paskal work is in progress on the campaign and more stuff is getting done.
May be IV should be a top-down organization. Any organization as big as IV would probably be better served with a Top Team. That team could probably elected by the community. I am confident, that most of our members wouldnt even mind spending a few extra bucks to pay a honarary amount to this team for their efforts and time. Then there will be more structure and accountability and action going on around here.
If you really think you can get someone like Aman Kapoor - who visited DC 18 times last year spending 60k of his personal money - by paying a few extra bucks, be my guest!
IV is a volunteer organization. Its strength is volunteers who believe in the cause and ready to spend their efforts and money for a cause that benefits not only them, but also the slackers who do nothing and sit on the forum badmouthing/belittling those who do.
A paid person will not do all that for you for the few extra bucks you are ready to pay.
I came to know about IV pretty late. When I did learn about IV and joined IV, I was a very enthusiastic participant. Of late, I do believe IV is fading away. I dont see so many activities going on around here. Like eb3_nepa and few others said, IV is right now becoming just another Immigration portal. It is starting to lose its identity.
After doing all the hard work to gather a mass or like minded people, it will be shameful, if IV drifts away from its stated aim. So, may be it is time for every member, including core members like you to refect upon things and come up with ways to make this organization more transparent and more accessible for people like me.
Don't judge IV by what's posted on the forum. IV is more than a forum. A lot of action happens off the forum (in fact most of it). Like Morpheus told Neo in Matrix, 'No one can tell you what it is. You need to experience it yourself'. Participating actively in IV activities through state chapters is the only way to know all IV activities happening.
It will never get posted here in a forum full of anti-immigrant trolls. IV is transparent in its finances as it gets audited as a tax-exempt organization and held accountable to its expenses. Transparency is bi-directional. IV expects its members seeking updates to be transparent too (by providing complete contact details and valid E-mail ids). When a large number of members aren't transparent themselves, asking IV to be transparent is a moot point.
Like Waldenpond said, it is probably not wise to list all the items going on in the portal. The work around to that would be, we can add another membership type which is more restrictive. This membership group will have only members whose identities have been verified. Once this group is created, IV can post all the happenings accessible to them. This will help people like me who are unable to be part of any state chapter to know what is happening at IV. Keep our sprits high.
Sorry to be blunt here. IVs aim is to motivate members to participate in the activities and achieve the goal. Keeping spirits high for everyone is not a part of the deal.
Creation of such a value-added paid membership was discussed earlier. Most of the IV members don't want it. So it didn't happen.

You are right in that the donation would go towards the core IV funds. But if we resort to writing personal checks and What if it is short of the amount he spent ? Should he wait for months if not years to realize the amount he spent ? I think they should be compensated immediately from the core IV funds.
---
Can someone from the core tell us if there is a possibility that we can request IV to reimburse Aman and other core members for their past expenses and institute a prosess for expense reimbursement going forward

I'm working on framing a letter to Karnik. In the meanwhile, here is what his email should be:

They can also be contacted via

Their advocacy of H1B visas, particulary at this time, will harm more than help us...

You cannot do CP for your spouse unless your I-485 is approved (an immigrant visa number is available for you). That is why the adjustment of status within the US is so much more preferable for most people - it lets you and the spouse get the EAD and start working without waiting for the approval of your GC.
My suggestion for you is to get all the paperwork ready for you and your spouse right now. (Except the medical exam for your spouse which has to be done in the US). The medical exam can be completed in 2 days.
Also, there is a chance that the dates will still remain current for the Aug visa bulletin, since the bulletin will get published by the middle of July, and the USCIS will not have an accurate idea of how many applications they will be getting in July. It looks like the retrogression will hit in either Sep or Oct but with USCIS we never know.
