Thank you for the info...My PD is 03/25/2005...A lot of people filed for their RIR or regular LC in the 2nd quarter of 2005 (jan-march) trying to get ahead of new PERM, which was supposed to have greater chance for an audit. Last day of old LC was 03/28/2005 and thus the hike of PD's that quarter...the following quarter you didn't see many LC approvals until lawyers and applicants were confident enough that the PERM system in fact was working as expected to start filinf for new appls, and thus the fewer approvals
It's hard to get a good idea when so few people participate in the poll so I took the data available on and ran a few numbers.
I queried for EB3-ROW I485 pending applications (~700 applications) and copied/pasted the data to a spreadsheet: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pivQbtGMEqKxBgHVI0_y4IQ
Here's a report with a PD distribution chart so you get a better idea on where we stand:
http://www.mediafire.com/?t3r2tmt49we
You'll have to zoom in a little to view the labels more clearly. The data is sampled quarterly on the chart.
I uploaded the data to Google Docs in case you want to create different statistics.

Hi
I agree there is lot of injustice to applicants stuck in pre perm system. But with elimination of LC substitution and a timeline of 45 days between LC and 140,
tons of pre perm applications after approved will go nuts becoz the candidates have already left the employers .
I am sure that dates will remain current in August also. I believe INS will give EAD and will let all wait for GC therefore needs to go to Parole. Once you are in AP, that means, you all are golden eggs laying ducks to INS everyyear.
One +ve plus for is , DESI companies are gone and we can change jobs but its premium price for lot of guys for years to pay .
Good. My LC is not even started. I am holding my breathe and congratulations to all my brothers and sisters who can file 485.
Good Luck

Hello All,
I e-Filed my EAD at the Nebraska Service Center (NSC).
E-Filed on 04/15/10
Documents received by NSC on 04/16/10 and had a LUD.
Additional LUDs on 04/19/10 and 04/20/10
But after that no news.
Is anybody in the same boat who has e-filed around the same date or have recievd their EAD cards.
[QUOTE=anilkumar0902;1734942]After a little bit of delay and suspense and a number of Soft LUDs...I finally received my renewal EAD today. Hurray !!! It almost feels like receiving a GC.
So, here's the deal:
E-filed for myself and my wife on 03/16
Approved on 04/09
Wife's EAD received on 04/12
Then started all the drama..
A lot of LUDs..but no card for me. The status shows approved ...one day and then Post-processing and then again back to Card-production ordered...Here and there and last week i saw a message saying .."Your new card is sent to your address on file". I must've checked my application at least 10 times before submitting...No issues with the application. But hey...All is well that ends well.
All the best to everyone else too...Always be hopeful and celebrate every good news..
Cheers[/QUOTE
That is good !
What is the duration of your EAD ? (I mean for 1 yr/2yr ?) and Is it effective from the date of approval or from the date on expiration of your current EAD ?. Hopefully, this is your last ead as GC should be on your way soon.

- It was a historic event, in a historic and scenic location with plenty of symbolism about what America represents - the Washington Monument to the Capitol, and the lobby day, reception (both of which I missed thanks to my flight delay) and press conferences at the Rayburn building.
- An excellent opportunity to get our voices heard where it matters - in D.C.
- Meet fellow IV members!
- Great photo opportunities
- Stories most of us will cherish for the rest of our lives and share with our children & grand children
- Last but not the least, it's always a pleasure to see an intelligent, calm, restrained leader like Aman Kapoor leading the effort in all his selflessness (he already got his green card a while ago). Proud to be a part of an org led by you Mr. Kapoor!
- And before I forget - another incredible selfless person, Ms. Tamsen!
- Plenty of others - too long a list to mention, you know who you are!
Had some down sides as well, but I'll keep this a fun thread... :)

It is so sad that H1Bs are exploited by those "consulting" companies (which essentially are "human trafficing companies" like doing "slave trade") while Americans (at least some Americans) hate H1Bs. We are like modern "slaves" that nobody cares about. :rolleyes:

It is surprising (rather shocking) to see how a discussion on an EB bill (which might never see the light of day anyway) has degenerated into an oft-repeated rant on how IV does not represent EB3.
When I meet with my lawmaker's office (and when I again meet in Feb), I repeat the IV provisions which are for ALL EB and not any specific category/country. THe problem with EB3 is the with the way the EB system/inventory is set-up. It is stupid to convert a chronic issue into a "IV is not trying" debate. As always, we have lots of armchair critics and few grass-roots workers.
Yes forever_waiting it is surprising and shocking to see how a discussion on an EB Bill which will never see the light of the day has degenerated into an oft-repeated rant
By using the keyword oft-repeated (i will ignore the word rant because only an immature mind will call the other side of a discussion as rant) it would imply that many EB3 members have raised the same concern in this forum before and i am not the first and believe me when i say this i will not be the last also. So that would mean a whole bunch of people (remember eb3 are 50 k and eb2 are only 12k) have the same concern and they have raised the same concern in this same forum so that would mean IV is aware of the concern.
Now what has IV done about it ??
Meeting a lawmaker with the support of IV behind you is not a reflection of a big effort on your side. The power behind that is IV. Now for me or any other EB3 to meet a law maker is not something i would consider an effort since EB3 are willing to put the same effort which you are putting only if they believei n what they are doing. To believe a person needs to feel that they are working for a cause that will impact their situation. Sadly this is missing and that is why EB3 people are cool about the whole meet the law maker process
Regarding the statement I repeat the IV provisions which are for ALL EB and not any specific category/country. THe problem with EB3 is the with the way the EB system/inventory is set-up. can you tell me what specific steps has IV articulated to resolve the specific issue of EB3
By your own definition this is a chronic issue and what we are taught is that any issue which is chronic needs to be redressed and when it is not it becomes a big issue which cannot be handled
As always, there is the name calling stating that EB3 people are armchair critics and whiners but when you are part of a community and you have issues you will air your greviences in the same community not to some one who has no idea or does not care about it
What is really suprising is that in EB community itself EB2 does not care to listen and provide and open discussion about EB3 issues. Now according to me that is shocking
BTW i commend your effort of meeting the law maker but if you introspect the only reason you are making an effort is because you believe your efforts will bear fruit in the form of a GC soon (I believe you are EB2 with a priority date of Apr 08 and current EB2 dates are May 2006)

i guess desi3933's chart has 7 Day EMA, 14 Day EMA, & 40 Day EMA (on closing prices) on indicators (based on annotations on top of charts).
.....
The indicators are linked to MA, but they are not just moving averages.
Yellow dots are direction indicator and bars are painted red (down trend) or blue (up trend) using other indicator.
The green arrow indicates possible Up (Buy) scenario and red arrow indicates possible Down (Sell) scenario.
Eclipses indicate retracement levels that can possible resume long-term trend.
Disclaimer: Information/Educational use only and should not be constructed as an offer to buy or sell any securities. Trading is very risky and is not for everyone.

At the outset, I fully sympathize with ur situation. It is just a pathetic state of affair and very unfortunate. It eats my heart out to see that future of our aged out children in the USA is affected by the stupid immigration rules and hence affecting their lives and career.
Having said that, if you are looking for IV or Core to do something about it, I would like u to consider few things:
a) IV is purely made up of volunteers and whatever any time we can get after a day long work or taking care of family matters , we dedicate to IV matters.
b) This implies, the issues that concern most of the people are generally taken on priority. Moreover, the unfortunate truth is that there is also self interest involved. Everyone is a victim here and would like to further self cause over other. If the self cause of majority is aligned, that makes into the agenda. After all, after lots of efforts if you get to meet any lawmaker just once for 15 minutes , which agenda would you push for?
Having said that I would recommend you to form a group to lobby your cause. I am sure IV will lend it support to let it run its banner. But the strategy, labor and money would be coming from the victims.
I have been continuously requesting in my previous postings that CORE Team should take up the issue of sufferings of children who have turned 21 and who could not file 485 applications due to visa retrogression. I do appreciate that this may not impact a large number of our members and CORE is committing its recourses for a much wider issue of over all visa number increase. However, getting visa number increased is a big effort and in current environment may not be achieved. However, getting CSPA amended may not e that much a big deal and if CORE team starts working on it, we may see positive result. As such, I again request CORE team members to take up this issue. I am prepared to lend my support in whatever way I can and I am sure there would be many other members who will be willing to do the same.
