I have been a reader on this site for years and have contributed to many of the fund raising campaigns. I agree with many of the comments on this thread. Brothers and sisters we need to team up and clamour for fair treatment; let us all contribute with dollars and sweat. I assume most of us on this site can afford to contribute a lot more than we have in the past and the potential rewards (fair opportunity to Immigration) are immense.
I have personally been in the US for ten years and believe I have contributed to the society a lot - while being a law abiding tax payer (I wish I could use the word citizen). And my story is not any different from any of yours. Why then we haven't gotten what we deserve at this point, afterall we have earned it by our sweat. The reason is we haven't realized our strength: in numbers, in dollars and in our contribution to the American society. No one is going to listen until we make our plight known to the public at large and to the law makers.
Some thoughts on how to go about doing it. We need a detailed plan with names of volunteers who can contribute their time. The plan should also include a list of key law-makers we are going to contact and how. All of this will cost money - so the first thing to do is support the fund-raising efforts. I also think we need to increase the fund-raising target by a lot; because the stakes are so high.
I apologize if I have wasted anyone's time with a long post. And I thank all of you for caring for one another and by sharing so much info with all the silent readers of this site. I have learned more about immigration from this site than my employer or immigration attroneys could ever share with me.
I will now put my money where my mouth is by making a contribution to Immigration Voice.

BTW guys,
Thanks for those who think the idea has merit.
i suddenly see a red dot against my username for trying to think out of the box:
"please dont be foolish and waste everyones time with ur insane proposal? thanks"
It is OK - whoever wanted to go this length. FYI, 'have been a member of IV and a donor since inception. Is anyone from the core who thinks this idea is insane?
Like-minded folks - let us work on it
How about having a list of action items and getting an opinion from the IV core on them?
Who is thinking your idea is bad or your intentions.. dont worry about these reds. I got 7 recently, but people who see your point will give u a green and that will go off.. Dont spoil your mind.. and give us more ideas.. how do I give you a green.. can someone show me..
I think I just figured out and gave u a green..

Thanks for the FAQ.
Quick question:
I have a EB2 approved I-140 with PD 2006. Another EB2 I-140 from BEC with PD 2005 is still pending and might take another 6 months to get approval.
Will it be a better a strategy to file based on approved 140 (pd 2006) and later on capture pd 2005, once the BEC based 140 gets approved? Not sure whether interfiling applies for same category.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions

AILA Follow-up to Update on July Visa Availability
From: AILA National
Sent: Friday, June 29, 2007 5:48 PM
Subject: Follow-up to Update on July Visa Availability
Further to the email earlier today about July visa availability:
Several members have asked whether they should continue in their efforts to
file adjustment of status applications for employment-based cases. Of course
, this is a matter for each attorney's best judgment, but note that:
-It is not certain what day the revised Bulletin will be issued.
-It is possible that the revised bulletin will not issue at all--efforts to
stop this unprecedented action are being pursued.
-If you "front desk" the application, i.e. decide it is futile to file, and
a remedy opens up later, having submitted the applications may improve the
chances of utlizing whatever fix might be available.
-If you do submit the adjustments, be sure to use a method whereby you can
document delivery, and keep that documentation for each client.
-AILF's Legal Action Center is seeking plaintiffs with respect to both the
adjustment applications that were or are expected to be rejected for June
and the adjustment applications that are expected to be rejected in July. Go
to InfoNet Document # 07062975: http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=22798 on InfoNet for the Potential Plaintiff Questionnaire and related FAQ.
We cannot predict now what will happen, but will continue to update the

I had the same issue...
Here is the short version of how it unfolded. I've seen some quick responses from USCIS.
9/15/2010 - USCIS email indicating that cards mailed for both me and spouse
9/16/2010 - Spouse received card
9/21/2010 - Got email (LUD) that my card returned undelivered.
9/22/2010 - Called customer service updated the address
9/23/2010 - Got my card in mail (wrapped in an usps priority envelope) with tracking number
I was pleasantly surprised with the fastness of USCIS.
Thanks,
Now my status changed to 'Initial Review' because post office returned my mail :confused: Within 12 hrs status changed from 'Card Production' (05.03 PM) to 'Initial Review' (06.33 AM).
I had updated my new address 3 yrs before and was confirmed by infopass appointment.

I found this forum after my I 485 denied as I applied for AOS under AC21 at texas center on 12/31/2008. The first thing I did after joining IV is sent the four letters.
I know its a stressful time. Please follow this thread carefully, read it completely and contact ombudsman with correct form. It would be easier for all of us if CIS can see number of genuine cases which are denied wrongfully. This way, CIS may would act faster to again put your case on file and in future will not do this again.

I dont know too much about the conflict but the first post on the site says this:
Immigration Voice is starting a massive campaign to make it easier for immigrants and those on non-immigrant visas (H-1Bs, L-1s, F-4 students) to get green cards --- furthering the displacement of skilled American workers (programmers, engineers, scientists, etc.)
So, I'm passing along this suggestion from another group:
Please read the email below, and I ask you to cut/paste their letter text, and then
customize it (which is to say reverse engineer it) asking them to CLOSE
the door, not open it wide. We must act NOW to counteract their
campaign.
So thats just somebody's interpretation of letter campaign. Perhaps one of the enthusiasts over here should post something over there differentiating the goals of the letter campaign from illegal immigration along with all the arguments posted here and explain that their interpretation is incorrect.

It was on Dec 2005 . Luftansa . Chennai - Frankfurt- Dallas . I was waiting for my boarding pass . I handed over my e ticket to the lady at the counter. Instead of issuing the boarding pass , she asked me about my H1B papers. I got confused . Why should I show my papers to this lady ? . Since it was my very first trip to US , I meekly showed her my papers.After that she had issued the boarding pass.
Friends, you may think I am very meek.This was not my first overseas trip. I had visited Japan previously. I didn't want to have fight with her and start my journey in bitter taste from the beginning.
Don't think only Non-Indians treat Indians shabbily. Our enemy is within.
If I happened to see that lady once again in Chennai -------
I am not sure why you're so ticked off about this. If you do not have a proper visa, the airlines that took you there will have to be bring you back free of cost. Many an airline have been burnt by this and hence they insist on seeing your visa.

Hi all,
Thanks so much for all of you who emailed and called to share your stories

restraints reigned, so I apologize to those that I had left out. Please
forward this email to anyone you know that may have talked to me, but
didn't leave me their email.
A quote that did not end up in the article, but I think you should know.
Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren, the chairwoman of the House subcommittee on
immigration:
"I have a lot of sympathy. I don�t know their names, but maybe I'll see
them at our hearing. To wait as long as these people have is difficult. A
lot of work and money has been put into the process. This is a cruel joke.
[To those who have been affected,] I am sorry that our bureaucracy has
dealt with you in such an incompetent manner and I hope to make it better."
here's the link in case anyone is looking for it.

If I am not wrong, buffering wud be to take in new 485 applications, process them and keep them ready.
In that context, most of the applications till 07/07 have been preadjudicated, new buffer wud require dates to be pushed to 07/07 or later.
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.;)

Why has AILA not yet filed a class action lawsuit? Why have no lawyers filed a lawsuit on behalf of the entire community?
Let us ask thiis question to all our lawyers and ask them to communicate to AILA? Speeding up namechecks will truly help immigrants and will annony employers who want to keep us waiting as long as possible.
This is an open question to all lawyers reading this post. If you can file such a lawsuit, it will be a big help to this community and you will prove to us that you truely care for our cause.
U kidding??? Very few lawyers go out of the way to do something to further our cause.

Thanks for posting this I was searching for some advise on this aspect ....
I have one questions based on this comment :
If a person uses one of his I-140s and the adjustment is for some
reason denied, it appears that there is no reason why they can not then
re-apply for adjustment using the other approved I-140 providing all the
requirements are met under the petition.
So lets say Husbands 485 gets deined for some reason and the wife has an approved I 140 but her PD is not current any more, can the substiution still happen or are the couple doomed?
Please respond.
AA
this is what I understand:
the wife can continue on her H1 extensions. The husband can stay until the current H1 expires. For future extensions he will need a fresh PERM/I-140 (since PD is not current).
Might be worth filing separately now, and joining the spouse's petition once its approved. From what I have read so far (CHECK WITH ATTORNEY) you can add your spouse to your I-485 within 180 days of approval, if you were married before it got approved.

If your PD is current for the July bulletin, then your application has to reach on July 2nd which is a Monday.
If your application was to reach on Saturday, June 30, and if the mail room guy is working overtime (assuming that the hell has frozen over), then your application will be sent back soon enough. Of course, the mail room guy is not going to open it on the same day; he/she is only going to stamp the date. And then when they really open it (2, 3, 4 weeks from now), they will send it back to you.
If your application was to reach on Sunday, July 1st, and if the mail room guy is working overtime (assuming that the hell has frozen over AGAIN), then your application will be accepted.
But if either of the two things above happen, I am not sure that GC is going to be my priority since hell would have frozen over...and I believe that's where we currently are stuck! :-)
So just take a chill pill, guys, your lawyer should know that the application should reach between Monday, July 2nd and Tuesday, July 31st. The end date can change once the August bulletin comes out.
Thanks,
Jayant
Better to mail on Saturday and have it delivered on Monday.

This is just a message to 2005/2006/2007 PD guys. Please don't think that some miracle will happen and dates will be current soon, it will take its own time. Mostly for EB2 & EB3June 2006- June 2007 guys, it will be like a lottery if the PD becomes current somewhere in 2007 Oct-Nov time. Right??
So life is not always easy. There are people waiting since 2002-03-04.
Don't think that life is not a FIFO always.
Why some of the guys became violent when I said, INDIA IS GREAT???
Guys.. do you know why I always feel like this???
As my parents,in laws and most of my relatives stay there. Not only mine, allmost all guys who are in the IV, they must have parents and relatives in India for sure. There is no other reason why I said India is great.
Someone asked me to pack up... YES, I will if nothing happens;however, I will be waiting to see the progress for sure. This is July. Let's have a look over OCT bulletin after 2 months and for sure dates will move atleast 4-6 months for EB2 guys and 1 year for EB3 guys. So wait, be patient, instead of doing all this.
Anyway, our turn will come sooner or later, so why to become impatient just seeing the JULY bulletin CURRENT and then "U".
Mainly this is the message for 2005-2006-2007 PD guys. Please don't take it otherwise.
I agree what you said but why the heck the USCIS make my life restless for 2 weeks. i spent 5000 dollors for nothing... that is what we are asking for not to go ahead of people with older priority dates

Multiple-Year Single EAD-AP Card Reportedly Limited to Visa Regrogression 485 Filers
Some more details have been released on Mr. Aytes' statement on this plan. Reportedly, such multiple year card may be issued only to those who suffer the visa number retrogression. In other words, those 485 filers who will experience delays in 485 applications who do not suffer from the visa number retrogression but from the USCIS delays including namechecks are not likely to benefit from the upcoming multi-year card issuance.
