The basic idea behind this approach is to channel all the negative energy into something positive.
Here is what me and my wife are doing. When the retrogression first hit us in 2005 January we were both devastated even more so because one my friend and his wife, with same the same priority date as ours and similar EB3 RIR got the Green Card on 24 Dec 2004. We would not have been so frustrated if they had the priority date even a month or so before us. But some are just lucky I guess. Coming back to what we are doing. My wife started her masters and finished in May this year. She could have finished in December but we were really banking on the CIR in May so she took more courses and finished it faster. Well that did not happen so whats next. So now I will be starting school again for second Masters this time MBA from one of the top10 B schools in January 2007. Ideally I wanted to do Full Time because its shorter duration as compared to part time but GC God (I wish there was one like that so that I can do the "Nariyal Pooja" or "Mundan" or "Abhishek") had otherr wishes so I have now switched from full time to part time. Lets see if my part time MBA of 4 years wins the race or Green Card wins the racce against time.
Moral of the story. Channelize your energy into something positive and get masters or second for that matter, or learn a new language, enroll in classes to learn languages that run for 6 months at community classees by the time you get your GC you will know atleast a dozen languages.
Lage Raho GC Bhai....
I know these are good ways to keep our mind off the gc, but for most of us who have spent 9 -10 years waiting and have family responsibilities, the steam of further studies has ran out especially if you have to pay for it yourself.

IV core group has done and continues to do a wonderful job. Many of us have to realise that this issue is MUCH MUCH larger than us. A nation is trying to decide what its immigration policy will be for the next generation. Furthermore this time its policy may even decide its ethnic majority in due course.
At times like this there will be a lot of opposing viewpoints and we should be grateful that our viewpoint will atleast be heard. Other than that, there is not a damn thing we can do. Ultimately only birthright will allow you to challenge for citizenship.
Many of us are frustrated for a variety of reasons but in the end pestering the IV core group is no help to them nor for our cause especially. I suggest we stop doing that and spare them the time explaining these issues to us, to doing other tasks which might be more useful.
Many of us have lost a lot in this process. I personally cannot even calculate what I have lost as a result of this waiting. However, it is a sacrifice I have to be ready to make if I truly want the priviledge of living here. Our humility and continued contribution to life in this country in the end will win over supporters.
If you notice, despite all the bad press about illegals, despite 9/11, the majority of americans are still pro legal immigrants, we are largely to credit for this, along with the pride they have in their forefathers who made the same journey.
It will take time, but whatever happens with CIR, I am quite certain that within the next 12-18 months there will be some relief for us legal immigrants waiting in the queue. It is the way it has always been.
I suspect relief for us will come with H1b visa relief, since the other truth of american politics is that lobbying is a big big deal here and corporate america runs this country de facto.

desi3933,
I didnt meant to ignore you. I was kind of busy yesterday so I couldnt reply to your message. Thanks a lot for correcting me and interpreting the text properly.
well I guess we are back to sqaure one.
Even though it can be legislative fix can we still have an action item? well... I dont know!
I think it's still fine. The fact that this was brought up by the Secretary in the action directive says that this has got good traction up top. People aren't getting their green cards any sooner with this. I think this plays into a territory which is actually quite non-controversial even if it needs to be taken from a legislative perspective. Also they maybe thinking of something else too. Who knows. They've seen the data; they know that people from India/China EB2/EB3 and EB3 ROW are seeing a long wait in front of them right now.

Too late in the game. Lets just finish up what we've started. I believe in go green (I pledged not to buy another box of ziplocs) , but if 25000 sheets of paper will bring me my fixes, I don't mind planting 20 trees to make up for it.
Hi Needhelp,
Why don't we do signature collection instead of collecting same letter templates from all people? Do we need to waste this much of paper?
Go Green !
Sorry if i hurt IV member feelings.

Thank you very much to the above for your replies. This is very helpful.
A couple basic questions:
a) What is AC21? Is it a form I send to USCIS?
b) What is an RFE (re: I-140)?
Many thanks!

Thanks for the update.
Update: In the subcommittee hearing tomorrow let us expect our issues raised. IV has successfully communicated issues of IV community to the subcommittee members. Let us wait to see if all of those are addressed in questions. This is all possible due to support of members who contribute to help us with lobbying efforts.

Republicans are generally more amenable to legal immigration fixes than Dems. While not all of the Dems are bad, most of them dont care about legal immigration -- they just want the illegals. If it were not for these Dems, 5882 would have sailed through by now
I am sure NoBama will say CIR. illegals first. etc. etc.
I am not sure how much the next president will affect the passage of the bill through the two houses since they were majority democrat and will continue to be majority democrat. Senate is projected to continue to be majority democrat even after the upcoming election (when 1/3th of the Senate seats are up for election). A Republican president might not veto such a bill. Not sure if Obama would veto a bill which has passed through a democratic majority vote. Just a thought........I could be wrong.

sagar_nyc, agreed. EB3 is a joke and even worst I have become a joker in front of all my friends who applied in EB2 cheating the system. Funny is, experience wise, I am well ahead of all those making fun of me but...:-(
too bad, eb3 does not even have a place to vent these days as IV forums and its thread only has discussions from EB2 members.
anyway, best of luck to everybody. the world is not fair, I am willing to fight my part to make it fair and just for all.
I hear you. Yours may become current at the beginning of next FY year as they project Feb 02 for sept 2010. Wish you luck!

Hey Risker,
It is a FACT that you/your class is more agrieved than any other possible class. But we need to be high on intellect and low on emotions. There is reason to wait till SEP. Besides although I am not sure but Labor and I-140s are for the Employers and Employees take over only in the I-485 stage. So we need to strategize instead of doing wishfull thinking. Its lot usefull if we be analytical in these threads rather than pouring out emotions.

NJ Senator Robert Menendez reply:
Dear Mr. XXXX:
Thank you for contacting me to express your support for the Real Enforcement with Practical Alternatives for Immigration Reform (REPAIR) proposal. Your opinion is very important to me, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond to you about this important issue.
The REPAIR proposal seeks to reform our immigration system by strengthening border security and interior enforcement, and requiring all employees to use biometric Social Security cards to gain employment. In addition, the proposal looks to implement a fair path to legalization for those already here and it includes proposals to enhance family reunification.
I believe we can create reform in a safe, orderly, and legal process that preserves the promise of America for all. It can create a pathway towards citizenship, make the process for receiving green cards more efficient, and create employment systems that are both business and family friendly.
America has a proud tradition as a nation of immigrants, but our immigration system is unarguably broken. We must enact practical, smart, and substantial immigration reform that reflects current economic and social realities, respects the core values of family unity and fundamental fairness, and upholds our tradition as a nation of immigrants. I believe substantial immigration reform is possible this year.
I have been persistently working with my colleagues to create and pass legislation that would enhance border security, while also providing a legitimate way for the estimated 12 million undocumented workers to come out of the shadows and earn United States citizenship. These undocumented workers should pass a series of strict and critical benchmarks, such as paying fines, learning English, and waiting at the back of the citizenship line behind those who have pursued legal means of attaining citizenship.
Comprehensive immigration reform is indeed an attainable goal and I believe that the REPAIR proposal provides a foundation on which we can build upon. Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts with me. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I may be of further assistance. I invite you to visit my website (Robert Menendez - US Senator for New Jersey: Home (http://menendez.senate.gov)) to learn more about how I am standing up for New Jersey families in the United States Senate.

USCIS promptly waited for everyone to submit AP & EAD application to move the dates forward!!!
But anyways, the movement is good, let's just see how many get their green cards and for the people who miss this boat as well we need to see how much they retrogress in October!

To the major headache we will be facing. Economy.
It is going to get nasty and there will be massive layoffs. We will have to hope for a quick recovery. Just today lehman, then washington mutual...who knows what is in store next. I heard that car companies are asking for bailouts. We got to end this war and spend the money here on improving the economy. All this money wasted in war is draining the economy...
