Don't know if anyone noticed but Mr. Emilio's statement nowhere indicates any acknowledgement of the hardships caused by the fiasco. If he (and USCIS) knows about "flowers", I am sure USCIS knows about the scramble, hardships and frustration caused by the fiasco. A simple acknowledgement through something like " ....while we regret unintended consequences of following our internal procedures, we have made arrangements to forward the flowers to ..." would have demonstrated leadership or honesty of intent which I guess is in short supply
I think he is trying to say if anybody needs flowers its our men in uniform and not us (USCIS). I hope I am wrong but thats my perspective. Have sent the flowers anyway ;)
Two things quickly...
1) He was probably advised by their lawyers not to mention anything about the visa bulletin for legal reasons.
2) I didn't realize this until this evening when I mentioned the whole flower thing to my wife and she reminded me that government officials and agencies aren't meant to accept gifts from anyone. I believe this may have been considered a gift, or at least a grey area and perhaps they believed that discretion was the better part of valor.
I work for a government department, not as a State employee but as a vendor, and they aren�t allowed to accept anything from us that may be construed as a gift. Even when we have our annual golf days, ours are paid for by the vendor company but the State is forced to pay for themselves.

nice link from AILA where you can search based on party/location/sponsor/co-sponsor/non-sponsor, etc
http://congress.org/aila2/issues/bills/?bill=11328731
once you select the option, there is a email link.
on as side note, only 3 co-sponsors were added in this month, meaning our efforts ARE paying off but need more momentum.
ofcourse, many reps like to support it but not co-sponsor it.

Aright: I spoke with a person at NJ Senator Robert Menendez's office. She mentioned about lots of Calls/Mails and Faxes about Green Card Backlogs have been received.
I've faxed them regarding the same and hoping to get response, if not then next week will do a follow-up call.
Also mailed the letter to DOS and NJ Representatives from congress.org.
If possible will definitely meet Senator Robert Menendez.

The law unambiguously states that for employment based categories - EB1 spillover should first go to EB2 and whatever is not required by both EB1 and EB2 will spillover to EB3. If the USCIS has been doing something different previously they were actually not following the letter of the law.
Here are the relevant sections of the INA which unambiguosly states the above.
Here is what Section 203 of the Immigration and Nationality Act states -
EB1 -
(1) Priority workers. - Visas shall first be made available in a number not to exceed 28.6 percent of such worldwide level, plus any visas not required for the classes specified in paragraphs (4) and (5),...............
EB2 -
(2) Aliens who are members of the professions holding advanced degrees or aliens of exceptional ability. -
(A) In general. - Visas shall be made available, in a number not to exceed 28.6 percent of such worldwide level, plus any visas not required for the classes specified in paragraph (1) ...............
EB3 -
(3) Skilled workers, professionals, and other workers.-
(A) In general. - Visas shall be made available, in a number not to exceed 28.6 percent of such worldwide level, plus any visas not required for the classes specified in paragraphs (1) and (2), .........
Yes, the same law can be interpreted like this:
EB1-ROW unused visa will go to EB2-ROW
EB2-ROW unused visa will go to EB3-ROW
Same for each country.
But its not happening. What actually is happening that they are giving unused visa from EB1-ROW to EB2-ROW to EB2-I/C. WHY?
So EB3-ROW is retrogressed bcoz it doesn't get any spillover and hence it affect EB3-I.
So where is the correct interpretation? Does any body know?
Don't take me wrong here. I don't favor EB3-ROW or any particular category. I am EB3-I with PD Nov 2002.

I requested l1Bfraud to join his/her state chapter, so that we know that he is an immigrant and doing this in good intention, but looks like he/she disappeared.

Dear L1Fraud,
Great job. I could not do this as I was afraid of Personal attacks and pulling down by the Free raiders. I was lazy too. Hope you read my PM reply.
Thanks for your commitment.
Once again request you to please contribute to IV.
Good luck.
That's something I noticed too. Most of the personal attacks and not-so-constructive criticism MOST of the time comes from free loaders.

Companies can and will have internal documentation standards regarding employibility.
In fact lately, judges have even upheld firings of smokers from certain companies.
IF there is a pattern of discrimination based on age, sex, national origin etc etc. THEN you can sue.. but NOT just because you don't like the policy of the employers..
People don't realize it but US laws actually give plenty of leeway to employers related to that.. only relevent law applying here would be "EEO" and that doesn't mention anything related to EAD.
Legally you don't have a leg to stand on.. but you can try.. tell the lawyer , they have chance to set precedent!

No one can travel on EAD. EAD is for employment authorization. AP is for travel. You cant mix and match the purpose of them.
If you dont need to travel or if you have a valid H1 stamp for travel, dont file for AP. If you want to travel and if your stamp has expired and dont want to apply for new stamp, then file for AP.
If you want to work for your employer and continue there and if you are sure of your job security, then you dont need EAD, and dont apply for EAD. However its a good idea since EAD is a great option of you are suddenly fired or laid off. EAD makes it easy to search for jobs coz the employer doesnt have to file your H1 and you can join them immediately without any hassles.
You are correct. When I filed on 2005 I did not apply for either AP or EAD. My H1 was valid until May 2007 and I do not intend to change jobs or travel(my country is too dangerous :mad: ).
I am already 55 :rolleyes: and am not going anywhere.
In January 2007 I filed EAD myself and got it approved in 40 days. My lawyer was charging me $400 to file it.

From the article below:
Senate Judiciary committe hearing on immigration will start from March 2nd and will start talking with Sen. Specter's markup which is a good starting point and the full senate hearing will subsequently start as expected on March 27th.
Congress to consider immigration in March
By Ray O'Hanlon
rohanlon@irishecho.com
With regard to the reform issue in Congress, the expectation as of this week was that the Senate Judiciary Committee could take up the various reform bills as early as Thursday, March 2.
The initial discussion in the committee would focus primarily on the proposal drawn up by its chairman, Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania.
Specter has presented a so-called "chairman's mark" which is comprised of original proposals and some aspects of other bills including the Senate's McCain/Kennedy bill, and the Sensenbrenner/King bill, which has already been passed by the House of Representatives.
The Judiciary Committee hearing is a prelude to full Senate consideration but St. Patrick's Day is likely to delay that for some days after March 17.
This year, for the first time, Congress is taking a week off after the Irish patron saint's day and officially labeling the break as the St. Patrick's Day recess.
That would mean that the earliest likely date for a Senate debate on whatever the judiciary Committee presents it would begin on Monday, March 27.
Given the sharp contrast in the main bills, that debate could some time, weeks if not months to complete.
Meanwhile, Bush noticeably advanced his position on reform in his State of the Union speech to the joint houses of Congress.
"We hear claims that immigrants are somehow bad for the economy, even though this economy could not function without them," he said.
"All these are forms of economic retreat, and they lead in the same direction toward a stagnant and second-rate economy," the president added.
"Keeping America competitive requires an immigration system that upholds our laws, reflects our values and serves the interests of our economy.
"Our nation needs orderly and secure borders. To meet this goal, we must have stronger immigration enforcement and border protection. And we must have a rational, humane guest worker program that rejects amnesty, allows temporary jobs for people who seek them legally, and reduces smuggling and crime at the border," he added.
However, as with previous statements, Bush did not go into detail as to how he exactly defines amnesty.
How he, and Congress, ultimately defines it will have a profound effect on the lives of tens of thousands of undocumented Irish.

Biographic Information. Please read the form and the instructions in the www.uscis.gov (http://www.uscis.gov)web site. Good night.
Why do we need 325A?- i thought this was for people in illegal status. Our son entered the US on valid H4 visa. Also do we need to request in application to attach the file to mother or anything like that. I will give the USCIS a call and share that information here if I find anything more.
thanks

I could not resist from writing this post-
A fisherman is selling two baskets full of crabs. One basket has a lid on it, the other doesn�t. An inquisitive buyer asks him why this is so. He smiles, pointing to the covered basket and says, �Well I have to cover this one because if I don�t, the crabs will all climb out�. �Why not the other basket then?� persists the buyer.
�You, see, they�re Indian Crabs - if one tries to climb out, the others will pull it back in, hence there�s no need for a lid�
Concentrate on action items and work harder than ever, which can bring a great relief to entire EB community. It does not matter how many times we failed or succeeded, every attempt we are an inch closer to our ultimate (IV) goal.

You are certainly showing your class and language skills here. Your momma teach you to talk like that? :rolleyes:
Tell me something.. when you applied for your L1 visa, did you fill out a DS157 form? All males in a certain age group are required to fill that, women are not.. but I'm not sure what they require from hijras like you :D
Again dumb idiot check your comprehension skills. You are making an assumption I am on L1.
And before you invoke my family members, check what yours have taught you. Did I ever mention your mother eventhough I could? What did your mother teach you, too call others hijras? :)) sounds very cultured family.
