Looks like you are using online degree to support your case as well, that is why you are so pissed off. No matter how loud you shout or how many people you threaten about lawsuits and all that stuff, no one can deny the fact that an online degree does not have much of recognition.
Say in clear and simple words -- are online degrees from University of North Dakota, University of Massachusetts, North Eastern University etc. legit ? Yes or No
Your beating around the bush and twisting words just show you have no argument. Didn't your MBA teach you that there is something called logical argument? Or was your degree from the like of TVU ?
It is only YOU who think that online degree does not have recognition . If you are yet to understand the power of Online educatoin you are probably living in stone age.
BTW, I do not have a online degree (though I plan to go for an online MBA) but I am pissed off when I see some so called educated people are so eager to get a GC that they will probably kill others to make their way.

Anyways, thanks RDB for your response.
But as USCIS is putting so much "efforts" in preadjudication 1000's of cases, can't they say whether we are preadjudicated or not? They Only worry about milking us by increasing visa fee, delaying processing time and all other means...

I just call them, was told that they have no additional information that what is available on the recorded message or the USCIS case status web site. I said I wanted to know if the case is 'pre-adjudicated' and the lady mentioned that that information is not disclosed. ;(
Ur ID is funny. Maybe the news that ur app is preadjudicated eases ur "laborpains"

Except the native Americans all are "Anchor Immigrants" who became citizens later. The guys in Number USA are also from the same family tree. So let us just do not pay attention to all these b***s*** and waste our time.
I concur with you 100%, they are just trying to instigate IV and other members to make a wrong move. People in U.S forget that everyone is an immigrant and this country is a land of immigrants. This really informs us about the people, their education system and finally the implementation of the knowledge gained from that education.
Modern way of thinking is not about ipods, laptops and Hd dvd players, but it about thinking from a broader perspective and changing your thinking over time.
Thanks

Vote at the below thread as well to compare this poll vs the poll at the below URL to get a gauge on the no of approvals in the month of september.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum77-work-travel-options-after-485-h1-versus-ead-ap/poll-461-a.html
Assuming that all those whose 485s were pending at the start of this poll voted on the poll at the above URL as well (if their 485 is still pending), it indicates that USCIS has issued quite a few approvals in the last 11 days based on below calculation.
No of 485s pending with a PD < Jan 2005 per this poll : 112
No of 485s pending with a PD < Jan 2005 per poll at above URL: 29
Net reduction in cases due to approvals since 8/23/09 : 112 - 29 = 83
Note: The above assumption could be far fetched as I see that the poll at the above URL is just started today (9/11). As more members especially those voted in this poll and still have pening 485s (where PD < 2005), it gives an idea of how well USCIS cleared the backlog.

Yes, they know what they do as far as globalization is concerned.
IT and BPO outsourcing is also leading to Americanization of Indian youth and Indian youth are spending their high salaries on American products. In no time you will see American fast food chains, groceries, and many American MNCs cashing on a Americanized Indian crowd and neutralize ( and will eventually exceed the investments they make).
This is the beginning of Americanization. Most of you will not understand what I say because you are here in US for a long time and being first generation immigrants (on a limbo) keep up with your tradition. Americanization is like a slow bleed. IT and BPO is investment. Returns will come in form of MNCs and businesses and finally benefit American economy.
Just go back to India and look into the ITand BPO companies and lifestyles of people there. it will be 5 times higher than what we follow here as the Americanization is already induced.
Bottomline, do not underestimate America. They know what they do.

I would sympathize with you if you can do the following:
1) Show me that no more than 90% of the population experience depression tendencies at some point in their life.
among EB applicants I believe it would be 99%. So are you alone? I guess not:D:D
Things you could do: Try watching talks with the Dalai Lama (available on youtube). Read books on Gandhi. Increase frequency of quiteness / meditation. Watch atleast one comedy show per day. Visit/remember the sick/disabled/poor or other less fortunate people than you.
Things you could avoid: Heavy drinking. Watching news, movies/shows which are high tension. Most important is not to fight the emotions/thoughts that you consider are destructive. Allow them to come and go. Just watch them come and go........
What you consider as "Good luck" can happen to you in the fraction of a seccond, however, it will never happen if you keep on defining yourself as unlucky. So focus on the good things you have now and refrain from comparing to "what you should be having or are worthy of having". :D:D:D:D

Employment Based (EB) Green Card (GC) Laws
The yearly GC quota is 140K. This includes GC for spouse and children. On an average, GCs are given to ~60K families.
Each country is allotted 7% (of 140K) GCs (equally distributed among EB-1, EB-2 and EB-3). Each country gets 9800 GCs (~4K families) + unused GCs (in the last quarter) from other countries, if any.
GCs unused in a year can not be reused in following years. There were 376, 345 unused GCs from 1992-2005 (page 34); 50K were recaptured for Schedule A from 01-04 and 107, 586 were recaptured for family based.
The Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) Ombudsman Annual Report 2007 (http://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/CISOMB_Annual_Report_2007.pdf) estimates (page 35) the submission of 500K-750K (yes 500K+) AOS applications between June 1 and August 17 2007.
There were ~1M pending AOS applications as of March’07. (pages 11 and 14 of Ombudsman's report)
USCIS can not determine the exact number of pending applications and a breakdown of pending applications by number of months pending and application type. Further, USCIS is not making any effort to determine these numbers. (page 13 of Ombudsman's report)
Administrative Delays
USCIS is 90% funded by application fees and is short of resources.
So far EAD renewal has been taking ?? months. With the additional applications it will take ?? months and we will have to apply for renewal after ?? months.
FBI name checks may be the single biggest obstacle to the timely and efficient delivery of immigration benefits. (page 37 of Ombudsman's report)
As of May 2007, USCIS had 329,160 pending name check cases, with approximately 64 percent (211,341) of those cases pending more than 90 days and approximately 32 percent (106,738) pending more than one year. (page 37 of Ombudsman's report)
The backlog appears likely to get worse, because the August USCIS fee increase has prompted a 50 percent rise in new naturalization applications so far this year.(Washington Post (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=85213&postcount=365))
USCIS has limited capability to produce reports detailing the status of long-pending name check cases. In addition, USCIS systems do not automatically indicate when a delayed name check is complete and the case can be adjudicated. Often, this leads to a situation where the validity of other checks expire before USCIS reviews the case. Those other checks then need to be reinitiated, adding financial and time costs for applicants and USCIS. (page 43 of Ombudsman's report)
Since 2001 FBI has intensified the scrutiny of immigrants with high-technology backgrounds. (Washington Post (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=85213&postcount=365))
What does it mean?
There will be 1.4M+ AOS applications by Aug 17 which will take 1.4M/140K = 10+ years. Thus, priority dates will remain retrogressed for several years.
Those who could not file AOS will wait for several years.
EAD/AP is valid for 1 year: long cycle of EAD/AP renewals.
If your EAD is not renewed in time, you will have to stop working,
Several employers (and rightly so) view EAD as a temporary permit and are reluctant to hire you.
You need to be in the same position with same job responsibilities for an indefinite time period otherwise your GC application will be rejected.
If you were unmarried at the time of filing, you will need to continue on current status (e.g. H-1B) otherwise you cannot bring your spouse.
Executive and Legislative Efforts
The only solution is to change laws to increase EB GC numbers.
EB Immigration reform does not have enough support in Congress (failure of SKILL, STEM, ...). As a matter of fact, it does not even get enough support to make it debatable, let alone final voting.

"AMPLIFICATION: The above Washington Wire item on the letter from House Republicans to Speaker Pelosi urging passage of an immigration bill to "help and retain" high-skilled workers refers to legislation that would increase the number of H-1B visas and green cards for high-tech and other skilled workers. The question in the WSJ poll referred to a separate effort, pushed by President Bush, to revamp the immigration system and provide a path to citizenship for those in the U.S. illegally. The item wasn't intended to imply high-skilled workers are illegal immigrants"
