Me and my wife had each sent a letter on Feb 10 to the President and the IV PO Box. I did not see my id in the names of peeps who sent a letter.
Just posting here to make sure you guys got the copies I sent you.
Maybe my letter was not considered in the total sent so far and there could be others like me.
Just a thought...
Thanks jackisback, efforts appreciated very much, cheers for posting.

yes I 140 has been approved in Feb o7.
Let me wait for actual denial letter.
It seems that is the best option at this point for me.

Simple and yet we have not acted purposefully. I have a strong feeling that this visa grab is still going on. HLG has sent out another immigration alert to all registered emails, similar to one posted on Feb 9, 2007. . And I quote a bit
FEBRUARY 12, 2007
ADVOCACY ALERT:
RETROGRESSION: WE'RE GETTING CLOSE
.......
Stopping this 'unused visa grab' for only one section of retrogressed and demanding it for all retrogressed is a sure WIN for us, if it happens; if it is stopped, it will make a tectonic shift the focus to the whole gamut of issues of retrogression, backlogs etc and will put more pressure on Congress to act.
I have seen and read all the posts in this thread started by me. I appreciate all points and posts, particularly by core team.
The least we can do is write and fax to Congress and demand. The IV team should set up a fax, so that each of us here can protest these moves by Congress without considering other severely backlogged applications. For this I propose a simple message.
Sir/Madam:
We are severely affected by retrogression and lack of visa numbers. Many of us, high skilled workers are waiting since 2001 for our Priority Date to become current.
We understand, as openly trumpeted by Hammond Law Group (reference: a post by HLG on Friday, February 09, 2007 at http://hammondlawgroup.blogspot.com/ and an email sent out by HLG on Monday, February 12, 2007) that the 110th Congress is considering allocating 90,000 unused visas from EB3 category EXCLUSIVELY for Sch. A workers. They had been given relief of 50,000 unused visas once in 2005.
We protest such a biased action. We had tried to reach many members of the house and senate and presented the above issue to them. Still our issues have not been resolved. We demand relief at equal footing. Do not appropriate all unused visas to one single category of affected workers.
Next one/two days are crucial. Let's make a difference.
Note:
1) In the above, I am trying to be focused, addressing one issue at a time. Backlogs, Slowness, Finger Prints are also other genuine issues. Let us stop the greedy stealing by HLG and their ilk.
2) If for whatever reason IV will not come up with a web fax, a few of us must act individually and let the congressmen and senators know of our protest. I had faxed to a few Congressmen and Senators, from the fax machine at my workplace. Believe me, these types of protests have worked in the past.

This is another example where lot of noise made and then nothing happens.
People talk here about filing lawsuit as it it is easy as filing something and on first hearing, judgment will be passed in their favor. Of course, no one even bothers to get initial professional advice.
Soon, we will have some other topic that will have similar discussion and similar fate.
Good Luck to everyone.

Only god knows what processes, rules and regulations they follow. I am glad that i am maintaining H1B status with my I-485 and never used EAD.
Its just so disturbing that you are at the mercy of USCIS who didn't know anything about how to look and process the application.
when you use AC21 it means you used EAD right ?
How can you use AC21 and still be on H1 ? could you give us more info on this pls.

Seems like this is just a Republican backed bill. Dems will fight this or insist that some provisions for illegals be included as well. Also once elections are over it is possible that the Dems will be majority and then this bill gets kicked to the side.
is it not sad to see voting trends decide stuff like this.
I do hope to one day vote in this country (I voted in every election in my home country after I became eligible).
If the dems do "kill the SKIL", they would have definitely lost my vote in the future. I know it is inconsequential compared to the millions they will gain from the illegals becoming legal. but in my small way, that will be my protest.

Hi gps001,
I have same question. I filed I-485+AP+EAD in July fiasco, after one year renewed I-131 (paid the fee then). I remember from that time that I do not have to pay the fee again to renew it. But in the e-file form I am not seeing option to get the waiver. Now I am doubting whether 2nd renewal is free or not?
I believe you have to pay the fee again to renew. If you applied your AP after the new fee structure kicked in, then you don't. But most of the July fisaco filers have to pay the fee for renewal as the new fee kicked in after the fiasco.

I did not know your case particularly but many people like you I know got their I140 cleared and filing I485 now after PD is moved. Still skill bill also does not have anything for persons like you that is you have to wait for your labor cleared. Any bill gives solutions for the persons like you or any lobbying going on? As for as I know no lobbying for these cases like these. Only thing we can do is request BEC to process fast by allocating more funds
First of all, it is not "my" case. I have been waiting in line for my green card for the past 5 years with my labor stuck in BEC. So, under the current CIR draft, I will be one of the biggest losers as I have not filed for my I-140 and so, my whole application will go down the drain after 5 years of time, money, energy and emotional stress.
How do you come with a math where I will be able to get a GC immediately after 5 years if I apply under the points system? Did you even read the draft bill? How will I or anybody else for that matter, manage for next 5 years without a GC when they are squeezing out the H1B (fee increase, removal of dual intent etc)?? Next would be the per country hard quota that will put us in an eternally long line.
I would definitely compare the current mess of a EB based system with the untested point system and take the current system any time as it is a known devil. The merit system is no angel either. Atleast in the current system, if I wait long enough, I know that my turn will come.
How do you know that process delay would be minimal? USCIS's current delay is not because of process, it is because of the sheer volume of applications and lack of man power. The PERM system takes one month. If you pay premium processing, it takes them 15 days to clear your I-140. So, where is the delay in process? All the delay is from the past backlogs which this bill fails to address and at the I-485 stage where they have to do background checks. That will exist in the points system as well. After you discover the problems in the point system, what will you do then? Ask for another CIR bill??
You don't have to tell what "my" case is. I live my case...

Ok..I know I should read thru the older posts, but didnt get a sense of what is required in my case, so I am posting the question online.
My wife was on her independent H1B. she travelled out side the country and was readmitted on H1b. After that she turned in her 2 weeks notice and has started working for another company on her EAD.
We have not applied for our AP previously.
My question is this:
In Part 1 , Q3
Class of Addmission
Should she put H1B (last admitted as)
or would it be Adjustment of Status (since she is using EAD)
Also, what kind of supporting documents need to be sent?
I-485 copy
EAD Copy ( yes/ no)
I-94 H1B issued at POE (yes/no)
2 passport sized photographs?
anything else?
Class of admission is last admission on port. That should be H1B.

You can call as much as you want. No one will give you a clear cut answer.
99% you will be rejected and 1% you will slip through.
Instead of wasting your time on them.Go ahead call & write to the media. Do not put it on the side and say let someone else do it. if we do not help ourselves in this matter no one will help us.
I hope i did not offend anybody.

I'm still wishing (and i'll be honest) USCIS come up with a reason/regulation/rule that will delay EAD for everyone until BEC people are able to file 485 OR in Oct they retrogress only till March 2005
This is not how you should have said, delay EAD for others just because people are struck at BEC. Comeon buddy show some wisdom, you should have said USCIS come out with a plan where as soon as BEC labor is cleared, they accept the applications for 485.
Most people showing their cool wisdom still not getting the point. A BEC person with Feb 2005 PD may not be able to file for another 2 years while a PD 2007 person will be enjoying EAD during that time. In my dictionary this is injustice. And that's why i was kinda happy when they updated the July bulletin, now I'm not really happy even if my company has already filed my 485/EAD on july 2. I'm still wishing (and i'll be honest) USCIS come up with a reason/regulation/rule that will delay EAD for everyone until BEC people are able to file 485 OR in Oct they retrogress only till March 2005.
P.S. if you are superstitious, you want to know this: most of my relatives/freinds call me "Black Tongue" because usually when i say something unpleasent it happens. e.g. i told my wife last month that i don't believe everyone is able to file 485, something will go wrong and everyone will be disappointed. (when everyone expects something it does not happen- contrarian theory)

Well, I've got a few reasons.
1. I don't like the attitude that comes along with the people that speak it.
2. I just don't like the language.
3. I don't live anywhere close to a place where I must know Hindi to survive.
4. The Indian Constitution recognises English as a subsidiary official language.
5. If I have survived as long as I have without knowing Hindi, I'm sure I can survive without knowing Hindi for the rest of my life.
Thaai mannae vanakkam!
This thread was dead in October last year. This guy MartianSoldier restarted it ( and notice he has only 1 post ) for just one reason - start infighting among indians from different states.
Anyone falling into his trap and fighting on the thread ?
