"Does battering members without knowing a real cause and passing judgements and making snide remarks help this movement in any way?
Anyone ?"
Maybe it does, maybe it doesnt, I dont know.
I am one of the few who was all alone in a congressmans office requesting the district director 'lets wait for 5 more mins' because all the people who were supposed to come to the meeting bailed out at the last moment without telling me.
its been 6 months and i am still pissed off about it. My daughter had to be rushed to the hospital the day before the meeting, i still made it. My employers were also supportive about giving me the day off to look after my child and attend the meeting too.
So am I judgemental if someone promises to attend something and doesn't, you bet i am.
Each one is supposed to his/her own part in a own way, but please dont promise something and be callous to ignore it completely. If you can contribute, contribute, if you cant then dont, provide your services in someother way but dont make light of the effort that others put in. The guys who failed to make to the Texas meeting could have emailed or called up and said so.
My Original Peaceful question again:
Does battering members without knowing a real cause and passing judgements and making snide remarks help this movement in any way?
Anyone ?
Peace again..

Thanks BharatPremi!
Appreciate your response. I have couple of questions/thoughts. Your logic is based on the fact:
1. Not MANY cases left with PD before 2003
2. 2003 and 2005 most cases moved over to EB2
3. In July 2007, PD moved over to June 2003
What about cases in 2004? not many?
And, the movement (to 2005) would happen only during last quarter of the FY when numbers overflow from other categories? Or under normal movement?
First Bullshit Period: 2003 - Realization that EB3-I will be dead slow - Sub
Labor black Market flourished mainly in NY, CA and TX.
We saw a new animal "Virtual Office". Lot of ethically and
morally(Now even legally) illegitimate transfers occured
from EB3 to earl PD based EB2.
Second Bullshit Period: 2005-JAN to APRIL is a key "Bullshit period" - As in
May PERM was gonna to be released, people
fanatically started preparations to switch over to EB2
using PERM. So maximum fence hopping done in this
period and continued till 2006 mid.
Fact: In june 2007 EB3-I was already reached to June 2003 as current PD.
So logically speaking once dates for EB3-I reaches to 2005 start mark then virtually it should not take long to reach to 2006 mid mark as EB3 numbers considerably reduced and with same amount EB2-I considerably increased so EB2- I will stuck for a very long long time once it reaches to 2005 start mark and Eb3-I will be moved with jet speed. Now we may have some EB3-I with PD before June 2003, it will surely be a stock from NC stuck - That is the only entity which you can not tag a number and hence the base of inaccurate prediction.So far so good. Considering all this I believe Eb3-I at least with PD 2004-mid should become current by the end of 2008 december.Last quarter of this year will be THE quarter for EB3-I
Other thing is unpredictable and abrupt decisions by USCIS, just like what it did during this April - So all in all, I think it (EB3-I) should reach to 2005 mark by 2009 mid.

Yes if you are born in India, then US skilled immigration is closed for EB2/3...its over..finished. I realized this in 2005 itself and started preparing, applied for Canada
PR in 2006. Took GMAT and applied for MBA. I only applied for Canadian schools...not 1 US school...I learnt my lesson...fool me twice shame on me. In 2007, I got my Canada PR
and well my MBA admission. I paid resident tuition fees, got loans from Banks as I was a PR. The plan worked picture perfect.
Interestingly when I was applying for my MBA in Canada, one friend of mine was preaching to me to do in US and not Canada....well guess what ...he got his a** handed over to him and lost his job and is back in India. He applied to US top schools and thankfully he didnt get admission. Overwise I dont know what would have happened.
I am in touch with Indian student in US B-schools like Harvard as well. Their life is living hell now with 20+ lakh loans in India with parent's home as collateral. Employers run away like seeing ghosts moment you mention H1B.
why didnt ur friend apply for MBA in canada?....i think a lot of people have misconceptions and pre-conceived notions about canada.......they think of US as the best and canada does not even figure in their list of options......i have got fooled once into h1b to US unaware of the broken immigration system.......wont happen again......i believe the ones in US on h1b visa from india should spread the word about the pathetic EB 2/EB3 india scenario so that no one else gets lured into US by h1b candy

As long as you have had a valid h1b peition approved for employer 1 and employer 2 while you worked for them you are FINE.
According to my lawyer there is nuthing like a h1b transfer. When someone decides to move to a new sponsor that new sponsor files for a h1b via the petition but nuthing gets transfered, they need to refer to old h1b just to prove thatyou are legal and have been maintaining legal status.
in your case Employer X did so but you never joined that employer so you are fine. USCIS can get back to that emplyer if they have not cancelled your h1b as they are liable to pay you by law.
For real as you had an approved petition (latest but not the greatest) from Employer X but did not join them you are fine as long as you were still holding a valid petition with Emp # 2. You should respond back to RFE stating that you were maintaining stauts via emp#2 and were offered a job by EmpX which you never accepted. As a proof you should sen copies of pay stub for enitre period and w-2 + peition and visa copies.
Hope this helps!:)
BTW there is nothing like H1 Transfer as I learned, when you file your H1 with another employer its equivalent to a new H1 only thing is it will not count in the current year's quota.
You are good if you maintained valid status and have the documents to prove, not working for employer X with an approved petition is ok if you maintained your valid status with your current employer.
Get a good letter drafted by your attorney and it should be straightforward. Your attorney should have told you that.

Now when explained like this anyone would understand. Also do see the point you are making and is worth a try. Is the core team looking into this? Do they need any assitance from us?
This is something that we have not had time to discuss yet. I raised the idea a few days ago, but we are all very busy currently. btw I am not an official core member, but recently very active.

Again, the bulletin mentioned beginning July 2. Every day, any day, starts at 12:01 AM. July 2 is no exception.
I Feel that what USCIS will do next is not return any application back to sender but DUMP them in some backlog storage room like BEC center and people hAVE TO WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR VB in OCTOBER IN ORDER TO GET RECEIPT NUMBER BASED ON PD AND THEN THEY WILL GET EAD and AP. The only thing is one might save on INCREASE 485 FEES:eek:

What we get
1. We get number of EB2,EB3 Primary and EB2,EB3 Dependent applications.
2. From the wordings, I won't be suprized if they give a summarized number from 2001.
But if someone else requested this info broken into PD buckets by month and Year, then I think we need to use that. The letter I sent had that wording, but I never received any response yet.
Here is what we don't get
1. Break up by country - Helps folks in EB3 as ROW is not current
2. Some might have not applied for AOS for various reason like their I140 is still pending, Some companies mandate that. - This could be a small percentage
3. Break-up by PD month& year
More insight is welcome.. Pre-adjudicated cases are not approved cases. So they can't eliminate them..

Yeah, let's ban everyone. Everyone should rejoice with you, because your body-shop employer won't be able to take advantage of you for much longer...
You should be banned again.
People who feel happy at other people's sorrows don't deserve here. Today in the moment of happiness you only came to spoil the mood and want sympathy from everyone. Your previous posts were VERY offensive. Do not act innocent. I saw them saddistic remarks.
Infact a lot of backlog center people started posting offensive remarks and showed happiness when dates became unavailable. I will never support you guys after what I saw from you as reactions.

I saw lot of posts above saying good things about them however my experience with them has been bad. I am assumng this is Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy, LLP we are talking about.
There have been a couple things in the past but the most frustrating one was that even though I sent them all my papers etc. by Jun 20th (so that they can file it on July 2nd) they did not file my case until Aug 08. They are my corporate lawyers so I don't have any choice. Also, they asked us not to contact regarding status during this period as they were really busy. While not responding to status queries was understandable, they still took more than a month to file cases. I confirmed with a lot of my colleagues who were in the same boat and were equally frustrated with noncommunication and taking so long to file the cases. They also were not maintaining any apparent first come first serve queue because there were several folks who got their filings done much sooner than others who had sent complete paperworks way before them.
Based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend them.

i sent an email to Senate Lieberman about the gap between the old and new system and h-1b extension:-
You might be the only Senate who cares legal immigrants and our contribution to US economy and its future. Some immigration attorneys and legal immigrants find out that the current CIR bill draft ends the existing employer-sponsored immigration system well before the inauguration of the merit-based point system. (please refer to Sec. 502 (d) (2) under Title V � Immigration Benefits on page 264 and 265 of bill text (SA 1150). If the CIR bill was signed into law, some departments would take time to establish procedures and it might be YEARS away to get merit-based immigration system ready for accepting applications. But the bill already ends the employer-sponsored system on �the date of the introduction of the [Insert title of Act]�. Can you see the gap between the old and new systems? At the same time, extension of H-1B is not possible if the immigration application filing is less than 365 days under the merit-based system. (please refer to Sec. 419 (d) (1) on page 239). For those who are already at the second 3-year of H-1B, we would face very unfair situation if the CIR bill were enacted as it is now: filing under the employer-sponsored system were invalid but the merit-based point system were not ready to accept any application yet. Previous time elapses until the H-1b couldn�t be extended after the 6th year.
I suggest to keep the current employer-sponsored immigration system running (accept new employment-based applications and the filing during such period is valid) until the merit-based system is able to process any applications and to reduce the 365 days to 180 days in sec. 419 (d) (1). Without any changes to eliminate the gap between the new and old systems, some of legal immigrants have to leave the current positions and the employers have to deal with unnecessary turnover.

But the bill already ends the employer-sponsored system on �the date of the introduction of the [Insert title of Act]�. Can you see the gap between the old and new systems? At the same time, extension of H-1B is not possible if the immigration application filing is less than 365 days under the merit-based system. (please refer to Sec. 419 (d) (1) on page 239). For those who are already at the second 3-year of H-1B, we would face very unfair situation if the CIR bill were enacted as it is now: filing under the employer-sponsored system were invalid but the merit-based point system were not ready to accept any application yet. Previous time elapses until the H-1b couldn�t be extended after the 6th year.
I suggest to keep the current employer-sponsored immigration system running (accept new employment-based applications and the filing during such period is valid) until the merit-based system is able to process any applications and to reduce the 365 days to 180 days in sec. 419 (d) (1). Without any changes to eliminate the gap between the new and old systems, some of legal immigrants have to leave the current positions and the employers have to deal with unnecessary turnover.

>>>>>It will also affect many starry eyed new H1-Bs chasing their ever elusive GC dream. Haven�t we all had enough<<<<<
Not really. Some/ many will have it easy especially if they were not foolish enough to be born in India.:mad:
Pls read the following advice from Siskind to some new potential H1B applicants.
http://www.ilw.com/articles/2006,0705-siskind.shtm
An option available to many this year will be filing for permanent residency. There are many work-related green card applications that can be filed without a labor certification. And the new PERM labor certification program means that employment authorization can be obtained much earlier. Now that concurrent filing of I-140 and adjustment of status applications area available, it may be possible to secure an employment authorization document in a matter of a couple of months after the green card process is started.
