    We appreciate all the one time contributions also, we are counting all the recurring contributing members. Right now we need 885 more.

    I gurantee monthly contributions. But, sorry, don't trust the automated & recurring transfers. I can sense there maybe other people with the same thought.

    Instead of a target number of recurring contributors, can you publish target monthly contributions (e.g. $XK target for Jan & $YK target for Feb and so on). It will be easier for us to gauge the shortage.

    Any insight into the distribution of spend (bet. lobbyists, admin etc) would be very useful too.

    This is the part I like, training advise is included. I have never run 5K. So I am picking the San Francisco 5K event to get started.

    China 2008 Olympics here I come ;), maybe not.

    People in Nor. Cal. PM me if you are a newbie at this, I am one too. Lets do this together.

    I renewed my passport last year. Initially I sent it to Houston consulate but I had sent with a NY address. So they sent everything back saying I have to approach NY consulate. But then again I sent to Houston with a Texas address. This time they processed it and sent my passport within 15 days. I think I also called them over the phone, and they patiently told me how long it might take to renew the passport.

    High number of approvals over the first few days were expected. Centers review/preadjudicate cases based on 'real' receive dates (which are close to notice dates), as physical files are sorted in that sequence. That is happening. Sept VB was available couple of weeks ago, which prepared them to issue formal approvals as soon as September starts. USCIS SOP describes that once cases are preadjudicated they are shelved (wating for visa) in sequence of PD's. Therefore, most approvals are preadjudicated cases.

    Congratulations to All who got approved. Best wishes to those still counting. If you ND is not too far from published dates (i.e. it is sometime in Aug/Sep/Oct 07), and your PD is high, there is very high chance of you getting a good news soon.

    I got 3-year H-1B extension till 09/2010 based on approved I-140 from current employer. Similarly, my wife's H4 status is approved till 09/2010. My wife filed for a new H-1B and her change of status from H-4 to H-1B is still pending (she has a receipt number and got selected in the lottery). Assuming her H-1B approval comes through, the start date will be from 10/01/2007. So far good.

    Now, I found a new job and the employer is willing to do the H-1B transfer. My wife's H4 needs extension too. What will happen if her H4 extension comes till 09/2010 with a pending H-1B? What will happen if her H-1B comes before H4 extn?

    Is it possible to extend her H4 only till 09/30/2007?

    Please help, I need to inform my new employer by noon tomorrow whether I accept the job or not. My PD is June 6, 2003 in EB3 category. I missed out by 5 days. The bulletin confused me further whether to move or stay put in my current job hoping my PD will become current in the next bulletin.

    Moderator - Since this is an urgent case, I would appreciate if you could allow this to be a separate thread. I did not want this to be buried under some other topic. Thanks.

    Hi IV members!

    I know many of us have been toying with ideas to increase membership. I wanted to start a separate thread just to highlight the following idea - Every member bring one additional member to IV.

    Specifically, these are the bullet points I suggest:

    1. By December 31, each of you bring one member to IV.
    If you really think about it, it is not a difficult task. Every one of us knows atleast one person stuck in GC process, that is talking conservatively. It takes less than 15 minutes to call one person and explain IVs efforts and request his/her support.

    2. By January 15, each of us take responsibility to get the member we brought to IV to contribute to the cause. And I am not suggesting any particular amount.

    3. Each of take responsibility in having them update their information on IV website, so that when the need arises, they can be contacted (for sending webfaxes etc. like last week).

    Also, whenever you bring someone to IV, please post on this thread (it will encourage others). I feel this approach will work, if we keep this thread alive, and try to stick to the time deadline (deadlines might not have worked before, because they were too long term).

    Also, please keep this thread on track, without any other discussions.

    So IV'ers, lets add ONE member, and get ONE contribution!!!!

    Thank you.
    Neelu

    Thanks so much, this is an excellent idea. Add one-2-3-10 members, lets keep this thread alive and kicking. Lets keep it to the top. We can do it. In a single day last week the thread we started calling sessions went from 35 posts to 150 posts.

    I would suggest our discussion with the congressional staff should focues on relief in two parts. Many in media are reporting that there is going to be another stimulus bill after healthcare reforms.
    So we should try to get waiver on green card quota limits for buying a house. We can make it part of stimulus bill.
    All other things including termination of country quota, racapture, exclusion of dependents can be part of CIR.

    Hope you had a nice vacation. :p

    Couldn't resist. Please follow the FOIA thread that is in red.
    10,000 was collected and 2500$ advance was sent out to USCIS. Now we wait to hear back from them.

    Do you honestly think something will come? I doubt. They asked for $10K as a routine without investigating into what is possible. While quoting the cost, they even asked "What is a Priority Date".

    PD's are not anywhere in the system. They are nowhere other than filled in ink on I-140, or I-485 applications or receipts. Even there, sometimes they are blank or wrong. They check manually on these dates while approving applications. That's the whole reason that all cutoff date movement is based on pure guess work, and approvals are never in order of PDs.

    Do you think they will check each application manually, and count them based on PD's?

    I noticed someone posted this in one other thread. I just noticed this as the 3rd headlines on CNN home page.

    Coopheal:
    If you really contributed $2400 as you say in your post and if you are really EB3 with PD 2003, then you wouldnt be asking others or me the questions. You didnt list a single action item that makes obvious sense to most people here.

    Do you want me also to write below " I contributed $8000 so far".. Do you think it will make anyone to even contribute a $ here unless they see a point. Wake up and come up with a better plan.

    Do not say that you want to see I-485 filling being applied to some bill.
    I said the same thing and people came after me saying that I should stop asking about I-485 provision fate.

    I never ever asked, I was just eager to see it as IV had mentioned.
    I guess people have mis understood by words.

    I beliebe that IV is pushing this provision. However, no sign of this provision indicates that there is no hope for any immigration reform in the near future.

    Maybe it's really time for us to consider packing and going back home.

    20/month is a joke for EB retrogression removal. It costs $15+/day for metro + car parking, to Washington DC.

    Is it possible to know how many members have not paid a penny so far? Thanks.

    People that have not contributed anytime in the past?. It is easier to count people that have contributed. Anyways, Thanks sam2006 for the inspiring posts and thanks gsc999 along with anurakt for your pledge.
    Looks like we need 875 more people.
