You have some very valid points about community (non)participation in your post.
I understand your point about having another rally. Make no mistake - IV core has no problems with planning and conducting another rally. So it's not a big issue to get them to agree. I can push IV core, and get another rally. Bigger issue is how many are going to turn up? If it's just 100-200 of us same-old folks, there is no point.
Last year when we were bouyed by the success of July VB reversal, it was estimated that at least 10,000 would turn up. But, only 2000 did. I don't know how many will, if we hold another few months from now?
IV can sponsor more ACTION (items). But what's point, if there is not enough participation? First step is the community needs to step up and make existing action items such as FOIA requests for backlog numbers, AC21 action items successful. This will motivate IV to launch more action items. No organization would want to be seen running too many campaigns with liitle or no community participation.
We need the IV core team and the administrator to guide some big rally's. Guys nothing will happen until we are bold about our intentions.
I noticed everyone comes up with their different ideas, but no one works to implement it. We need to stand together and do something big, when was the last time we had a big rally?
And how many people actually showed up? Desi's wants everything fast and free, the problem is lately IV thinks too much and has less of ACTION

I may have to respectfully disagree with this.. Mine was approved on June 13th 2006 and my PD is current.. I have seen many EB2 with a later PD and 140 approval being approved.
There is only ONE trend... that is NO TREND :p

I have nothing against lawyers, most are hard-working and smart. But that smartness also makes them confuse others and ultimately its the clients who have to pay for the smartness of the lawyers.
I am totally against that.
making a living is one thing, but talk about confusing people and milking them for the money !!!

Hello BharatPremi,
I was in the Interfiling situation for the last four months but EB2 India was Retrogressed and then Unavailable as you know. But, I got the advice from my Lawyer that I should Interfile and not wait for the EB2 India dates to get current. So, at the end of Feb '08 I decided to Interfile with my lawyer's help.
With the cover letter as suggested in various earlier posts he made sure he sent the Original Approval Notice of the I140 and not a copy.
The main text of the letter was:
In accordance with 8 C.F.R. �204.5(e) , the applicant hereby request your office to amend the priority date to that of <new I140 Priority Date> as indicated on the enclosed original approved I-140 petition on behalf of the applicant.
In the footnotes, this was included:
1. A petition approved on behalf of an alien under sections 203(b) (1), (2), or (3) of the Act accords the alien the priority date of the approved petition for any subsequently filed petition for any classification under sections 203(b) (1), (2), or (3) of the Act for which the alien may qualify. In the event that the alien is the beneficiary of multiple petitions under sections 203(b) (1), (2), or (3) of the Act, the alien shall be entitled to the earliest priority date.
It was beginning of March when this was done. Then in mid-March, I got the great news that EB2 India is current for my PD. We will see what happens in April '08 !!!
No news from USCIS yet on the Interfiling app. My lawyer suggested to call after a month of the application's RD.
Waiting on GC for more than 6 years. I hope this is the last thing to do before AOS is approved for us and we receive the PR Card.
Hope this info helps.
Best of Luck for your case.
Thanks Sanbaj. Do you have both applications under same sponsor? Or different sponsor? My case is: both different sponsor and on top of that now I am working for third company using AC21 -EAD. Can any complications arise?

Thanks for the comments. Its not my assumptions, it is the law.
Please checkout how the spillovers between EB and FB are arrived. Here is the link
http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/uscode08/usc_sec_08_00001151----000-.html
I personally think Mr. MPADAPA's assumption is wrong. Last year (2008), the spillover came from Family quota of 2008. Spillover from Family or Employment quota of a particular year cannot be given to the following year. So the fact that there is nothing left from the family quota of 2008 doesn't change any situation here.
So, this year the spillover that Employment category can get from Family quota will be the unused numbers of 2009 Family quota.
This is just my thought!

Here's your answer in the bulletin
EMPLOYMENT: Demand for numbers in the Employment Third �Other Workers� category, as well as the China and India Employment Second preference categories, has been escalating. No movement in those cut-off dates will be possible until the current level of demand subsides.
Thanks for your post. It does look like EB2 India and EB3 Other Workers will remain where they are. The point to be noted is that EB3 India was not commented upon i.e. EB3 Other Workers is different from EB3 India or EB3 ROW. I don't want to commit the deadly sin of predicting but there is hope that EB3 India might move albeit slowly :p

I agree. No filing for 485 hence no Fee for USCIS. Also does this increase in fee mean in increase in effecieny :)
Well, everyone wishes the rumour to be true.
But you know what, to realize the increase in fees for the I-485, they should allow people to file for it. Unless people start filing for I-485's they are not going to make the $2billion in 2 yrs. If retrogression continues, guess the fee increase doesn't make much sense.... Not sure whether I am right or wrong here.

I understand you don’t care about the United States and its people and you’re only interested in what you can gain from them but if you weren’t so blinded by greed you’d see this is something else they can give to you. Now I know why I took the route I did, I would have accomplished far less in my personal life with the likes of you. In fact, I may doing to much sharing my expertise with you. I refuse to have my name tarnished any further. Besides, you’re only a beginner. What was I thinking? IV really ought to make it clear to everyone that this is an amateur site. Maybe by changing its name to Beginning Immigration. IV definitely is not the voice of Immigration – my voice is different from IVs and I’m dealing with immigration. I may have to contact the internet higher-ups about this farse.
Thanks for sharing your expertise. But unfortunately we are not in the drug trafficking business. IV is only for legal employment based immigrants. This is clearly stated in the IV policy.
Believe me, you wont get any help here. You like it or not, its the fact. So dont waste our time as well as your's.

I think he would want to see a locksmith to get the damaged "lever" rectified before he sees a doctor lest someone should compromise the lock and break in while he is away to see the doctor.
sorry i couldn't resist... all in the name of humor!:D
While a pray for your "lever"....i will suggest u see a doctor asap!!!
And I will also prescribe you channel all the pain into some positive energy by helping IV via contributions, volunteer work...and participatingin action items...all that is very rewarding!!! and will help you from going nuts, bananas and what have you!!

o Nothing materially and noticeably. A minor nuisance out of the way.
- What did you do on the day you received it?
o Was glad but no celebration.
- How did the long wait upset your life?
o Yes for a while. But the entire episode changed my outlook and showed me a different perspective. After being frustrated for a while I realized I should not called myself �skilled� if I cannot navigate the rather simple green card mess. People are successful despite extraordinary physical handicaps and here I was restraining myself under the simple excuse of GC. I realized that I had to and could create oppurtunities for myself, without GC and without being in the US. Fortunately at that very time I got my EAD (June 2007). I gave myself a hard limit of 1 year and if GC did not materialize in a year I would ditch the effort and move to plan B. By april this year I began taking steps towards a change of job. My prospective job title was going were different but I was willing to risk the GC. Now I was wishing I should not get a GC since I would need to shelve plan B for 6 months. And suddenly on May 1st I got the GC, just when I did not want it!
- How did immigrationvoice help you during this long wait?
o Tremendously. When GC was important to me, it gave me a platform where I could act to make a change. I haven�t been active but just contributed a couple of hundred dollars to the cause.
- Would you like to continue your support to immigration voice and help others waiting?
o No, the cause has long ceased to be important to me.
- Any advice for everyone?
o Don�t create impediments for yourself by hanging onto GC and getting frustrated. Move on, there is plenty of good life outside clutches of GC!
Good luck to all, with or without GC life will work out good for you and your families!!

and u are saying this coz u r a programmer for uscis?
A common misconception.
Approving 25000 485s that were already processed and sitting in cold storage will take less than a minute.
Approving meant simply running a program that assigned a visa number to a processed case in a loop that ran 25000 times. Such a program will complete in seconds. The paperwork for these 25k approved applications is going to take months and online updates of 485 approval are still trickling in.
So there was no new found efficiency in USCIS as many seem to believe.

You can only use experience IF it is for EB3 AND EVEN THEN ONLY IF it so states on the labor certificate.
However, I have seen a few that have slid by the adjudicators. But the chances are very very slim and I have seen cases picked up later on if it was incorrectly approved ... but not always.
I'm certain you cannot do that. While applying for H1B Visa, you can use experience in lieu of education, but while Perm/I140, they consider only 1 degree. Either its Masters or its Bachelors...even both of them are not considered as aggregates.
If your attorney is planning that way, he may not have handled such cases before... :eek:
You cannot substitute degree with experience while applying for Perm/I140.

I changed it to clarify. The answer is YES, we have had 100% approvals for CA=MA, but we have done relatively few. This is based on Indian documentation that CA=PGD. However the stronger evidence points to CA=BA. As you can see someone on this board got an approval for our evaluation for a CA=MA with a professor's expert letter. The professor's letters are not cheap but effective.
In India, only UGC (University Grant Commission) is qualified to issue equivalency letters. Professor letter can be supplemental, but it can not be authentic certification, as UGC is only one to issue that.
>> The professor's letters are not cheap but effective.
Care to explain what do you mean by "not cheap"?
Is there any university that have taken CA qualified for PhD programme?
