The way i read that statement is that DOS is being cautious and don't want to move the dates way ahead at one go, dates will move by some degree in May and then bulletin will have projected dates for future months, this way if DOS sees demand from porting in Sept, it may not move EB2 dates at all...My 2C.
If they add EB2ROW Fall across numbers(6-8k) from first 6 months it will be 20K towards EB2IC backlog. USCIS may need buffer since all pending cases are not pre-adjudicated and some cases will be denied.
20k can clear all back log until 01-JAN if they need buffer they can move to 01-MAR-2007( 2 months or 5k) or 01-MAY -2007 (4 months or 10k), worst case can go to 01-AUG-2007(7 months or 15k)! my guesstimate.;)

Wouldn't it be nice if he could speak for the peaceful rally in protest of USCIS in San Jose... Just a thought...
I'd be surprised if Arnie is anti-immigration considering he is an immigrant himself.

I was double minded to do porting or not. Now I am considering it very seriously. Got a green signal from my current EMPLOYER to go ahead for EB2.

I'm with Lingo since 2005 and I just changed over to the Hello World Max plan today (thanks to this thread). I called to ask if there is any penalty for cancelling and moving to Vonage since I am getting free calls to India and the CSR (a desi gal BTW) told me about this plan. She said there was no contract to switch and it would take effect from next billing cycle. She waived the plan change fee but wouldnt give me 2 months free like Vonage.
So for now, I'll stick with them since now I really dont have much to bitch about. My phone bill comes ~$60 right now (yes I make a lot of India calls) so am glad to see it drop in half.
As far as taxes go, it depends on your address so I think Vonage and Lingo should both be the same since the taxes are paid to Federal, State, County, City and they dont discriminate between companies. I know a friend who registered his phone in some god forsaken place since taxes there are very low but since this VOIP is my primary line, I need to have some kind of 911 service and am fine with the tax.
Here is the taxes for Lingo service for VA.
Federal Taxes & Fees: 0.36
Universal Services: 4.64
State Taxes & Surcharges: 3.37
County/Local Taxes: 0.00
Presubscribed Inter-exchange Carrier Chrg: 0.00
Regulatory Recovery Fee for XXXXX 1.99
Emergency Services Fee for XXXXXX 1.99
---------------------------------------------------
Total Fees, Taxes & Surcharges: 12.35
Talked to lingo Customer Service now.
When existing customers change to the new Max plan, they have to sign up for a new 2 year contract.
Also have to wait till the next billing cycle for the plan to take effect.

Thanks! I am in Virginia.
Thanks to needhelp for the reference.
Is it advisable to include a reference to the Ombudsman report in the letter to the President? I am talking about the earlier mentioned reference on page 33 stating that "since 1994 there have been over 218,000 un-recaptured employment-based visas lost due to underutilization of the employment-based visas."

USCIS has decided that the flowers sent by skilled, legal immigrants to director Dr. Emilio Gonzalez will be forwarded to injured service members recuperating at Walter Reed Army Medical Center and at Bethesda Naval Hospital.
We welcome the fact that Dr. Gonzalez acknowledged the symbolic gesture of our protest. We are even more happy that these flowers will brighten the day of our injured service brethren. It is their contribution to the American freedom that has made this country such a desirable destination for highly skilled professionals from all over the world.
We also want to convey to the service personnel receiving those flowers that our message accompanying those flowers is, "Thank You and God Bless You".

Very well said..English_August!

I've seen many job ads asking for US citizens or GC holders only. That implies that EAD and H1B holders cannot apply. And at the same time at the end of the ad, u can see a text that says "xxx is an equal opportunity employer". Though both the statements are contradictory, companies post such ads. Not sure though if companies are allowed to have such policies. If so, why?
Pls refer the link from DOJ posted above. It clearly states that "US citizen and "green-card" (i.e., permanent resident) only policies are generally prohibited, unless required by law, regulation, or government contract"

Quick question.
IV has asked for 2 copies, one to the President and one to IV. Couple of questions on that.
1) Does the letter addressed to the President need to be in a seperate stamped envelope?
2) What is the reason behind 2 copies?
eb3_Nepa, definitely the letter to the President has to be in a separate stamped envelope and hand written is preferable.
Reason behind 2 copies is that IV also want to collect the copies of all the letters sent out to the President. So that when we talk to the administration, we can show them how many folks are being affected because of this GC retrogressions.
I hope i have answered your questions.
Senior/Core members if my explanation is not right please delete or edit my post.

If I hadn't already spent $34 on sending flowers to USCIS, I would have definitely sent a "bon voyage" bouquet to you.
To anyone still thinking about sending flowers, do this woman a favor, and send her flowers instead!
Hello all
I am a silent visitor of this website.
Just my 2 cents... Don't think USA is like India where you can do something forcefully. Why don't you guys understand the real problem of USCIS.
Do you think that by sending flower to USCIS will force them to make EB2/EB3 current for 2005/2006/2007 guys??
Please try to understand their problem.
Also India is the great. Why don't you guys just think that India is your home country where you are born and brought up. Why you people can't just wait and watch?? If nothing happens to the so called GC, then why don't you think to pack up and go back to India???????
My sincere request, please don't do rally, you might be arrested......you never know what they can do..... Don't you think that, it is better to go back to India rather than being embarrassed here in US???
Isn't it a shame on us to go for Rally to get GC?????:D
Just think that you will get it when time comes, otherwise pack up.
Please don't take much tension as life is very short. I am assuring you all, nothing will happen with law suit and flower campaign.Don't irritate USCIS by doing all this please.

One way "in which we can get more people involved on IV" is to remove some of the barriers to such participation. And the infamous red/green thingie comes to my mind.
Any updates on when IV is going to get rid of the red/green dot thingie?
I think we are making a big deal of red and green dots. It is only in recent times that people are complaining so much about misuse. We can get rid of it, but then moderation will be tough. I do not think that is the reason for not participating. We do not have much awareness about IV in the community. When we say half million applications are pending, why are we not getting those on IV?
We need help in raising awareness about this cause in the community. Let us make that as the first action item this new year. All members can take initiatives and help. It does not cost any money and IV is not asking any money. We just need more participation.

To send the inquiry thru your congressmen and Senators, you need your A numbers and SSNs too, along with your country of origin, DOB, profession, employer and all nine yards. This is a official faxed or mailed request which shd have date, sign and marked to your congressmen's office. Part of Federal privacy rule.

Yes, I send 7001 to Ombudsman. It's been more than a month since I sent it. Like I said, I have tried everything that was on the link I provided earlier except for contacting the first lady. I am not sure how contacting the first lady will make any difference, but I am thinking of giving that a shot too, so might mail out all my case details to them this weekend.
Don't go by the receipt date/notice date crap they are giving you. Last year (in September 2008), when the senator sent an inquiry, they said they were processing cases in order of notice dates and not PDs. On a daily basis, I would see hundreds of cases with PD/RD/ND after mine getting approved and all I could do is sit and watch.
I feel like they think they are not answerable to anyone and they can get away with anything. I hope something magical happens for you and you get the green card soon...
Did you send 7001 to Ombudsman? So, Ombudsman is also hopeless?
Did you call them to find out the status? Here is Om's #, in case you don't know: 202-282-8000. Call them and update us as well.
