I filed my 485 in July 11th and have received the 485 receipts. There is a possibility that I might get laid off before Jan 11 (180 days). My H1 B expires Nov 2008.
Questions
1. Can I stay legally in US if I get laid off in Oct 07 ?
2. How can I proceed with my Green Card process ?
I think this might be a repeat question, but would still like to get your thoughts.

My attorney never received original approved LCA and they applied regular I-140 with request for duplicate labor in March 07.
With the flood gates opened now for July, CAN I apply for 485?

I do not see anywhere in the legislation where it says that EB1 is "more skilled and valuable" that EB2 and so on. What it does say is that the various categories require a certain amount of education and hence my point! I am not insecure but I AM frustrated at your arrogance. Look before you leap and read the Immigration Act!!!!
You betray your own post .... forget the INA .... all you have to do is read the visa bulletin ... read just the 1st page.... thats all you have to do ...
The Employment categories are basically termed as "EMPLOYMENT-BASED PREFERENCES"
Surely you must be intelligent enough to reach the same conclusion regarding USCIS preferences regarding categories that I did.

Hi all,
First I thank IV core team for making the D.C rally a big success.
Here are few of my thouts.
1)To get more chinese and other foreign nationals involved in our team we better to put active chinese and other nationals in IV core team (Its just my idea and if you think its not a good one please ignore it.)
2) Yes we better do a second rally but at thesame time we better to educate them first by giving adevrtisements and things like that.

Based on the labor approvals, I am expecting EB2 will touch 2007 in the next 3 to 5 visa bulletins.
I know you have been correct in the past but I think we have just gotten over the hump of 2003 and a small portion of 2004 for EB2. The majority of 2004 and early 2005 still remains. There was a huge jump in March 2005 to beat PERM. I dont understand how it will reach 2007

I know this is probably asking for trouble but no movement can be credible without listening to the dissenting voices. So here is my gripe ... You cannot open a single thread or forum without being asked for contributions these days. People are told that if they dont contribute, they are not "supporting the cause".
But the stark reality is this... If you look at the IV website to see what action/progress has been made in "the cause"....there is some vague statement about Patton Boggs and how we have this lobbyist who is educating congressmen...Who exactly? How? When? Oh those details cannot be given.
There is a link about IV in the news...the last time IV was in the news was in Sept 2007 ...19 MONTHS AGO...
Then there is a link about IV and FBI namechecks...The last update is some thread in Feb 08 and this brilliant statement from 2007 ..."IV has met officials from agencies and has raised this issue in the recent past. We have been informed that there is an effort being undertaken to significantly reduce name check backlogs in the next 6 months." SERIOUSLY?? You really expect that you can convince people to contribute based on this flimsy evidence of doing "something" that you really cant tell us ??
For those asking for money, THERE HAS NOT BEEN A SINGLE UPDATE ON ANY PROGRESS SPECIFICALLY ACHIEVED BY IV IN THE LAST YEAR AND HALF !!!
How can you justify this? Actually, you dont have to....There are many like me who will answer questions of panicked people about how to navigate the complex immigration system but until IV can provide some concrete proof of what specifically it is doing, how exactly it is spending the money and what roadmap of progress it hopes to achieve and whether it is on its way to achieving it....the money wells will continue to be dry.
And this new caste system of the DONOR forum which basically says screw you to everyone who has spent time, money or effort on IV and completely goes against the "Change for fairness and Justice" mumbo jumbo is a step in the right direction, IV needs to give way to an actual movement that actually does something and this DONOR forum concept will certainly go a long way in the marginalization of this site and community.
You did say it is a gripe so fair enough.
"IV can provide some concrete proof of what specifically it is doing," - what does that mean? I have been repeatedly told, that IV is us and we should be coming up with a plan of action if we want to do something. Do you disagree ? I am currently going on that assumption, no ?

whats with the quotes...comparing to Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr...Please dont kid yourself.
They did it for their country and fellowmen to be free from the clutches of oppression (a much serious issue than green card i think). Although even that is extended selfishness (cos of being Indian or African American) but they dedicated their entire lives for that cause.
We are not even close...this is just for MY GREEN CARD!
am i wrong?
Don't you think you are not free from the clutches. If getting some green card relieves so many people from clutches why not fight for it?

. People deserve to be treated with respect and that is something he needs to realize.
This is the spirit IV leadership should have. After all we are building an organization with human beings not mechanical parts. We should be more compassionate towards junior members and bench warmers.

Can anyone confirm if the following is the right source for filing address:

The reason I ask is that the instructions form for 131 has a different address.

Thank you.
I sent it to the address in the first link that you mention. Please note they have different addresses for USPS and non-USPS .

Was listening to NPR today and some anti-immigration group apparently sent 700,000 web faxes/emails to get the current CIR bill down. Try matching that at IV... Also mentioned that their members called the lawmakers in thousands.
The group is not NumbUSA. Some other group.....

Just one anti-immigration group, NumbersUSA, has sent more than 100,000 faxes and made thousands of calls to Congress since Wednesday. The intensity of that anger propelled some of the bill's opponents.

What freedom and justice you are talking about? The folks on this forum are not responsible for you misery. So stop venting you frustation here. Though, I sympathize with you situtation but unfortuantely the whole legal system is unfair.
What we have done here is a good start, soon we will lobby for passing of SKIL bill . And the day is not far when you too will be benefitted by these efforts
Please and i'm begging you that please read the entire post and think for a moment before replying. I'm not in BEC, already filed my 485. I'm aware of the IV efforts towards getting relief for BEC people, I never disputed that. My point has been that the system and July bulletin is unfair (at least from one angle) and that calling it unfair/unjust should not upset others. I don't know what words were used by Bigtime and banning him was fair or unfair.
