EB-3 India is last in the line so first EB-2 (WW) than EB-2 India/china/mexico, then EB-3 (WW) then EB-3 India/China/Mexico... basically my common sense tells me EB-3 India will get a big 'ZERO'....
There is a spillover of 22000 visas from FB to EB starting Sep 01 2008. Does anybody know how this spillover is divided between EB1/EB2/EB3?
Can we expect 28.6% of this spillover in EB3? Just like we get 28.6% of annual quota?

We are languishing close to 85K. It is very important that we reach 150K very soon. There are some big decisions pending because of that.
That's bad... I had send one more contribution of $100, hope it helps.

And not just because I am from EB-3 ROW.
But, because everything that I have learnt seems to indicate that EB-3 ROW is getting a lot of visa numbers. So why the hell would it be stuck??
because there is a very large number of ppl in EB3-ROW.

My wife couldn't do TB test since she was pregnant when we filed I-485 in Aug 2007. Now she is in India and be back only in the first week of June. If we receive an RFE for her TB test ( my PD is EB3-I Oct 2003), can we request an extension for RFE? Is that possible?
-GCisaDawg
My fear came true today. USCIS issued a RFE for my wife's I-485 TB test and she is in India right now. RFE has May 6th deadline and she would be back on June 3rd.
What are our options?
Request an extension for RFE?
Pre-pone her trip? (this would be really a costly option for us...since we have so much planned around that date)
Do TB test in USCIS approved surgeons in india (If there is any)
Thanks,
GCisaDawg

Was your previous approval based on an extension ? [Pending LC/Approved I-140 etc] ?
Yes. It was pending LC and they approved my I-140 last week. The status update happened immediately after my I-140 approval.Does your current transfer require documents from the previous employer ? [LC/Approved I-140] ? Yes. It was LC that was pending with my previous employer. Were you paid the prevailing wages mentioned in the LCA of previous H1B ?
Yes. I was getting paid little more.
Can this be supported by the W2 of last financial year [Not the paycheck].
Yes.
Did you have I-94 attached in the previously approved H1B ?
Yes.
Please answer these questions it might be helpful in finding what might have raised the red flag.

Same thing applies to US congress. They dont set their timetable of bills based on morality and merits. There are other factors.
Like it or not i am becoming a big fan of your posts. There is more logic to your life than ppl who question you and ur Core Team's Selfless efforts.
Lot of ppl do overlook that this is a grassroots organization with severe limitations. Those who sling mud at these ppl, If you cant appreciate what the core does, pls dont curse them. It is not for your or our Good.
My only worry is that these CORE members get discouraged with numerous flaming posts and drop out of this noble cause.
If that happens there will be nobody to work for us. :(

Great work IV for making this happen. But I agree with the concerns of backlogged EAD/AP. I think we should work with USCIS towards issuing interim EADs atleast . Else it will take 1-2 years just to get a receipt...That would defeat our purpose.
So what did we acheive? Just moved the backlog from "waiting to file I-485 to waiting for EAD" ? And I am not even talking about getting the GC .Who knows when we will get that?
I don't know if I should be happy or worried :eek: :eek:

I just submit my story to the obama-biden transition team.
IV members please visit the website link provided by IV and submit your stories to the transition team.
Hope they hear us and do something to get some kind of administrative relief for employment based legal immigrants.
For India/China both EB-2 and EB-3 are heavily backlogged and unless the new administration recaptures lost visa numbers due to bureacracy, it will be
impossible to catchup the old backlog pending since 2001.

I think Founder of IV got green card 2 or 3 years back. So he may think it may be waste of time to write a message in Forum. Or he may be only working in background. Donor members and State chapters may have a better idea as they know more than normal members. If they also see no participation from him then we can decide that he is busy in his personal work and no time to devote for IV
I have been a IV member since 2006 . I have seen the ups/downs . donated money , sent letters , attended rallies and done whatever has been been proposed . But I see that many senior members who had the drive to motivate people are not sending or being part of any messages or threads at all and that is exactly why the movement seems to be losing steam .
The standard response that I see to any question is "have you donated money ? " . "Don't ask for anything till you have donated. " this is followed by some some red dots which normally works to silence the questions. People will be willing to donate when they believe in the movement . I remember we collected $ 30,000 in 1 month before the rally there was huge thread with all the donations . People were charged up and the money came up automatically . I am willing to donate but to be brutally honest I do not see the same level of motivation as was there in 2006 / 2007 days .Please use this as a wakeup call and not as reason to vent your frustration on me .
There are many senior members who I do not even see any more . Members joining in late 2007 or early 2008 will not know any of these guys .
Aman Kapoor . He is the founder of IV . I have not seen his messages since the past 3 years almost . Where is he ? Is it too much for him to send a greeting in New years eve motivating the members ? It takes just 2 minutes .
Mark Bartosik :- He was supposed to the spokesperson for IV .The guy with the MasterCard sign for immigration . I have not seen him for quite some time now
Where are the other senior leaders like
a) Walden Pond
b) There was a this British Girl from San Jose ( had a handle which had name like Rose or something )
c) Niloufer Bustani from Dallas. I see her once in a while but very sparingly .
The others even I have forgotten completely.
The only leadership/core that I see is Pappu and no one else . If you have a country where the prime minister shows his face only once in 4 years , how are the people supposed to believe in that movement ? Please don't reply with a message saying what have I done or why can't I contribute money ? I have done that I am looking for leadership to show us the way and motivate us . All campaigns don't need money donations( Letters , calls , faxes etc ) . We could start with that and then drum up support and momentum and then the money will start flowing in automatically . There has to be a synchronized campaign organized by the leadership and all I see is everybody putting their eggs in the basket called spillover.

It looks excellent response.
Now let us take third round. Every one convice atleast one person for contribution and post the experience here.
Request to administrator to post latest contribution figure.
Thanks,
khodalmd,
We have updated the contributions page -
http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=26&Itemid=44#CollectionsSoFar
We have collected a little over $80,000 so far. We still have a long way to go to reach our target of $150,000. The more the money that all of our members contribute, more the amount of hours the lobbyist will be able to expend on our cause. This is really crunch time for us and we urge all members to contribute and also convince their friends and relatives also to contribute.

Guys
I got back through JFK. Had Valid H1 and AP. Unfortunately (kicking myself) , my EAD was insidethe passport too. IO saw it n said you'll need to use AP and took us to interview room, no questions asked, but took another 25 minutes. Now am Parolled... and I94 says Parolled until .....
Moral of the story : If you have valid H1 stamped , keep the AP tucked away. Can't argue with the ignorant mo fo s at the counter..

The Pediatrician told us that she should not take the vaccince based on the manufacturer's literature. They gave us a letter to that effect and the Civil Curgeon then applied for a blanket waiver.
Sameet,
Thanks for your response. My wife is in India currently. Wondering if we can get a letter from a pediatrician there.

I'm like everyone else - 7th year on H1-B. Sick of thinking about my career. I filed my labor in Aug 2002 EB-3 and so I'm also a retro victim. I'm convinced that GC will take another 5 years to come to my date.
There are few options:
1. Apply for Canandian PR and then if you are lucky you may get a good job in Canada in IT or else you will end up working in Wal*Mart or some grocery store cursing why you came here. Canadian Companies wants Canadian experience. US experience is not enough! :(
2. Just enjoy without doing anything and hope that your GC would come before you die. :D
3. Do some Masters degree. I'm currently erolled in a masters program and would somehow try to finish it. It would keep me focussed and create positive energies in me. Otherwise due to utter frustration, I'm not able to concentrate and work. If you are wise enough you would understand that there is no place for you here in US and you would push off immediately. :)

Yes but do note you do not have endless time to file a complaint. I don't know how many months you have to file a complaint after leaving your job but I know for sure there is a time limit.
QUOTE]
I think its 3 years from the event, that you have to file a complaint. If its past 3 years, you cannot file the complaint. The event may be such as you left the employer and your employer withheld your last paycheck(very common issue with desi consultants) in the name of covering your H1 expenses etc.

I dont know if that's completely true. I had my H1B visa appointment on Dec 28th in Mumbai and am in the PIMS verification status also. The visa officer told me that all NIV applicants around the world have to go through the process and admitted that the process was new.
I talked to 3 other H1 candidates right after I was handed the yellow slip and they all had the same experience with different officers. Although its aggravating, hopefully, we'll all get some relief this week.
Good luck to all of us!

People who want to put FD(fixed deposit), try FDs related to NRE accounts. It gives higher return+ you can get the money back to $$.
Always good to stick to nationalised banks! Private banks offer better interest rate, but one fine day you might end up searching for a branch to get your money back.
