I'm at a total loss here. My dates became current in June and I was ready with all the paperwork - even filled all the forms myself. Company and their attorneys took their own time and sent the application out only today for Monday delivery... I kept on reminding them what USCIS did to EB-3 other workers.. but all for nothing....... they can just say 'oops sorry' and out lives are screwed!!!

for all those whose lawyers allow multiple filings: what are you filling in for I-485 Part 3 section A "Have you ever before applied for permanent resident status in the U.S"?
In my case both applications are proceeding in parallel and I dont know which lawyer will end up filing first!
The one you apply next should should have the option checked.
Word of advice:
Understand the full implications if you want to file 2. I have gone into its details over the past week and this weekend, and would not advice someone to do it just for the heck of it. You should have VERY genuine reasons for it due to some risks involved. This is a grey area and there is no law for it or against it. There can be some risks and advantages.

We heard so many stories about violation many Indian bodyshoppers like bench without pay,Low pay ,fake resumes and many more. But when any bill comes to control them we are opposing. Because we fear that we may be one of the persons working in those companies and may be impacted by that.
Certainly the bill is not a pro immigrant and anti immigrant bill. But some kind of restriction is needed to clean out H1b. I accept as a pro immigrant we have to oppose any anti immigrant bill. So I am sure IV will try to block the bill as they did the restriction in TARP.
I am not going to get any benefit if they shut the door behind me. I need just one job that I can get any time and whatever compettion and there is no need to shut thousands of people. So my views are not based on any personal ambition.
I am seeing some positives in the bill. Wages will increase for the H1bs also. Only genuine companies can do the business. Best and bright people will not be impacted by this. Also it can open opportunity to increase H1b Cap and Green card Cap. So there is a good possiblity to reduce or eliminate retrogession.
Basically there are two options for IV and other pro immigrants if the bill is considered serously. One is just oppose the bill and try to block completely. Or other option is to negotiate to include our agenda to recapture/increase GC and also to modify the portions of bill. Instead of failing with option 1 getting success in option 2 is better.
I think this bill will not be passed if it is against WTO trade regulations.
I totally agree with you. H1b and employment based GC's are so intertwined that they are almost inseparable. For example, you can get H1b extension based on your pending/approved PERM labor or your approved I-140 application. So, any change to H1b will in some way impact the GC process. I'm all for closing the loop holes in H1b provided certain reforms are also made in the EB green card process- like removing per country quotas and may be give EAD upon I-140 approval.

I will forward this to my lawyer..
US court already clearly given vertict to BS+5 years alone itsef qualify for EB2. It was a major ruling against INS.
US educated (or holding master degree) is no way superior than holding BS+5 years experience if job requires more experience . Similarly BS+5 years is no way superior than MS, if job requires absolutly Masters degree (like research).. So dont compare each other, as each has its own merits. Education and experience cannot replace each other.
However, One can send a petition to DOL/USCIS to deny the second LC/140 application if an employer files two LC/I-140 for a single person (same employer -same beneficiary) for a similar kind of job, just to help the employee to line jump from EB3 to EB2. This may work to stop abusing the system.

I am planning to go to the USCIS office tomorrow for media coverage. Any one in the DC area willing to join? This would be between 10 am and 1 pm. send me a pm with your name, number for more info. I really want to hear from the people who were ready for the protest in DC. This is a good opportunity to explain what has happened and the root cause of the issue.

EOM. Should this be a question or if you use less paper, will you be considered environmental friendly and way to faster GC.
Don't waste your time and energy on trifles. I can, because I am done with filing and work at office.
How the forms to be printed? One sided or back to- back?

I hate to play "who winks first" game with teleblend. They told that they would come up with similar india plan but not providing any details.
May be now I should switch to vonage or Lingo. One factor in favor of vonage is: I get two months free with referral and one year contract rather than 2 years with Lingo.
As per one my close friend, lingo CS is not very good. Vonage is still better than Lingo.
However here is my question.
The acutal cost of Vonage with unlimited india calling is $31 - $32 per month due to taxes, misc charges etc.
WHAT would be ACTUAL COST OF LINGO per month? any approximation?
Any one who uses lingo? Please advice... How much money do Lingo charges over & above regular monthly charges?
I used to be a vonage user and Vonage was horrible as they were trying as much hard to charge the MAX to the customer in extra MISC charges.
So far they havent provided any link from LINGO.COM home page, even the link what I posted got it from my friend........we didnt know at this moment how much taxes gonna be...
It's 2 years agreement and it's killing part....
I have no idea about customer service or call quality....
If any body has exp...please share for other customers who are willing to sign will be healpfull...

It could also be that they are confusing your EAD with EADs used mostly by students on OPT which leads to H1B to Greencard sponsorship.

We as a community should oppose major violation done by these consulting firms.
The only reason these companies send people on L1 is to keep them as bonded labour giving them no chance to switch jobs. These companies can always apply for H1b for such folks, there are enough H1 visas available this year.
There is a reason there are two visa categories L1 and H1. They should not be used to circumvent immigration laws.

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

The more than half million highly-skilled legal immigrants already working productively in the United States find themselves trapped in a system that is taking years longer than intended.

That's good news APB.
I guess it may either be the SR that I opened for my wife or the letter I wrote to Napolitano...my wife got a call from a CSR from DC and she told that her case is pending because of the Biometrics, she said she is issuing new biometrics...the speaker phone was on...and I interjected...how come I got approved w/o the Biometrics...she was clueless...I told her how many times can Biometrics notice be issued...my attorney called TSC on 10th of Sept and that time a notice was issued which we never received and then again two weeks later someone else issued another notice.....then someone else told that Biom is fine it just needs uploading and it has been two weeks since then the only thing that is happening is the Visas getting used up .....I said what's the point of FP/Biom if visas are no longer available which surely will be the case in 3 weeks....
In any case didn't expect a phone call from them so was surprised.

I just checked my online status one last time for the day; since the USCIS website was down all day. Usually its the same status but now I saw a LUD in today�s date. I checked the case status and both me and my wife have the Card Production Status:D
No emails or text just the update. Called the phone number and got the same message that the card has been ordered.
Its been a very long journey very similar to many here. Its been almost 11 years to a month since we came to this country and had to go through 2 applications to finally reach here. Sacrificed career for the sake of the GC and was at my wits ends with this long wait. Thanks to the almighty the road from here is hopefully green:)
Friends, IV�ians and fellow sufferers,
Today we received our physical Green card; 63 years since my motherland got her freedom I got mine. Its been a long journey and I am glad that I can shut this chapter and go on to the next..
First of all let me tell you that the mail that you get the card is as incognito as they come. Its not in the USCIS envelope, looks almost like a credit card offer. Wife was almost going to shred it but felt the card and opened it :). Its actually green. With the date of birth mentioned a gazillion times. Magnetic strip, hologram and all that kind of jazzy stuff. I have no freaking clue where they got the picture from, its not what I submitted with the I485. It should be the one they took while finger printing in 2007.
Finally I popped the cork off a bottle of Champagne that I have been saving for this occasion and have taken more than a few morsel sips of the bubbly. (please pardon any excesses I might make in this post :D). Now I can chart out my career as I want to with no constraints to cap my potential. I can attain full self actualization in whatever I decide to do and also hopefully contribute more to society both here in my karma bhoomi and back in India my janma bhoomi.
If I may paraphrase Jawaharlal Nehru � when the world sleeps (its 12:45AM eastern); I awaken� !!
I have contributed both financially and with my time to IV. I will continue to do so. I wish all of you the very best and hope the ones waiting in get their GC soon. Keep the faith.

This is a great chance for a BIG step forward and many of you have worked VERY hard (which has motivated me also, else i had lost hope).
God bless!!!
forgot to mention reasoning ---> not everyone checks (or is able to) website every day but they do check email...and we do not have much time left.
