I have been looking at number and the IV forum and there are very handful number of cases with December 2005 that have been touched.
I think we need to cheer up and be optimistic in addition to creating SR, senator route and infopass. I have a feeling that all the October, Nov and December cases might be in a single lump of files and we will get it in the next week or so.
Stay positive guys :)
I am in the same boat. I wish you are true. Its so frustrating to see 2006 folks getting approved (I am happy for them that at least they are getting approved but it is unfair that we are still waiting) and we are still waiting. Ridiculous....

Most of us are getting a one year EAD. Hope IV can act on this at least for EB3, as EB2 don't really care about the duration of the EAD anymore.

Just one point Slumdog -- You know, I have never seen anyone who rents, writing this kind of a story and justifying his decision. I wonder, why not? Why do YOU have to justify over here? Are you justifying to others or you are justifying to yourself?
You put too much stress on "quality of life". One can have a good quality of life in a small apartment.
I keep telling my wife that our apartment looks small only when she goes to department stores and shops like crazy. Our walk-in-closet is the nearest thing to a Black Hole. Mass density is so high in that area that pretty soon even light would not come out of it.
I strongly believe in "Simple Living, High Thinking". I can not say I implement it all the time, however, I try to keep it in my mind during my decision making process.
Slumdog, You have great writing skills.

Here is an interesting statistic:
Saw this in a diffrent forum. This is interesting but hardly matters to this issue. It's not the number of hours, it's the calendar date when they are going to put in that few hours of work.

Both in the job advertisements and Form9089, it is said: minimum of master degree or alternate of bachelor degree plus 2 years' experience.
The LC has been approved in the August of last year, I-140 (EB2) has been filed thereafter, still pending.
How do we file a new application for Eb3 since the original LC has been filed in the last EB2 application?
Is there a way to file an amendment of the pending EB2 to EB3? In this case, can we hire a new lawyer?
Some people has got a RFE, but some just got denied directly, so I am worried.
Can I hire a new lawyer to file a new application for Eb3 using the same LC? but we do not have the original LC? I remember I read somewhere that if we file a new application with request of a duplication of LC, then we cannot file I-140 and I-485 concurrently. In my case, I am desperate to catch the deadline of 8/17, because my H1B is going to expire and reach the maximum.
Please help!
1. What was mentioned in the job advertisements - was the alternate Bachelors+2 years mentioned
2. How long as it been since the last advertisement
3. Can they file another I-140 concurrently with I-485 using the recently approved labor
4. I agree with abhijitp you can get a RFE too
My suggestion would be to apply in EB3 even though the job advertisement reads masters or Bachelors with 2 years and use the option 3
I request you guys to consult a good attorney immediately and help your selves and also save time.
Please consult an attorney for your good.

SGP are you working at Client's site in NJ or are you working from Home for a company in LA, CA ?
If you are at Client Site then you need a LCA for NJ and no need for address in LA., CA
If you are working from home, then you have to check what does your Paystub say, if it says that you are an employee in LA, CA you have to find a home in CA.
It is from my understanding of the law. Other's please comment

I'm all for this. This is very close to my heart. I probably care more about this than I do, my 485 approval.(can't have one without the other, I know I know. But still.).
I don't know when I'll get my 485 approved, hopefully within the next year. But I'm willing to work on this, whatever it takes - contributions, lawmaker meetings, DC.
I'm in.
This has got to be simple too. When the citizenship law was first drafted, immigrants got their green cards within months of entering the country. Start to End of the greencard process took under a year, if not less.
The intention of the law was to have them learn the language, the ways of the country, and assimilate, which was expected to take about 5 years, before applying for citizenship.
These days the green card process itself take over 5 years for a lot of people. Most Indians and Chinese in the EB2 category, and pretty much the entire EB3 category have lived here longer than 5 years. In those 5 years they have gone to school here, paid income taxes, bought homes, and learned the language (well they had to, in order to qualify for an employment based green card!). What more "assimilation" do they need to do?
I definitely think that the following should be the criteria for eligibility to apply for citizenship,
- An approved green card
- 5 years of continuous U.S. residence starting from the date the 485 application was received.
Let's do this.
Excuse me, but what's 485 got to do with assimilation? It would be perfectly legitimate for people who are waiting for their dates to be current, following the exact same logic as above
People sometimes draw the line just where they themselves have just crossed it

US Senate Committe on Small Business and Enterprenership (http://sbc.senate.gov/record.cfm?id=267960)
Senate Passes Key Funding for Women�s Business Centers
Wednesday, January 24, 2007
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today the U.S. Senate unanimously passed an amendment sponsored by Senators John Kerry (D-Mass.), Olympia J. Snowe (R-Maine), and John Sununu (R-N.H.) to create a grant program for established, successful Women's Business Centers around the country. The provision is now part of the minimum wage legislation being considered on the Senate floor.
"I've been working for 21 years on the Committee to promote expanded entrepreneurial opportunities for women and secure funding for these centers which help turn ideas into jobs, start-ups into success," said Kerry, Chairman of the Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship. "I cannot stress enough the vital role Women's Business Centers play in cities all around the country, like Boston and Worcester. This amendment ensures we will be providing women-owned small businesses the tools they need to grow and flourish."
"We cannot afford to ignore, or minimize, the extraordinary contributions America's business women are making to our economy, our culture, and our future. The achievements of women entrepreneurs are undeniable. Women-owned firms generate almost $2.5 trillion in revenues. They employ more than 19 million workers and are the fastest growing segment of today�s economy. In my home state of Maine alone, more than 63,000 women-owned firms generate an astounding $9 billion in sales," said Snowe. "Today, I am pleased to join Small Business Committee Chairman John Kerry and Senator Sununu with this amendment so women small business owners have the resources, the support and the opportunities they need and deserve."
Senator Sununu said: "Women's Business Centers contribute to the strength and diversity of the small business community, as we know from the great example set by Portsmouth's facility. Centers that have performed at a high level should have the option of applying for additional help to enable their important work to continue. The Senate�s action today marks an important step in the effort to preserve critical funding for WBCs in New Hampshire and across the country."
The amendment is similar to language that passed out of the Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship last summer as part of S. 3778, the comprehensive Small Business Administration reauthorization bill, which is based on the Women's Business Center Sustainability Pilot Program Kerry created in 1999.
Specifically, the amendment allows established Women's Business Centers to apply for 3-year grants on an ongoing basis. This permanent stream of federal funding is critical to helping the Centers secure matching private funds. This amendment also prohibits the Centers from sharing information about their clients without their consent, unless the information is required by a court order or to do an audit of the center.

I gave you a genuine idea to go and meet your lawmaker. You ignored that.
Why can't you speak for yourself and stand on your own feet. Are you illegal in this country?
If you still want to do more, then contact IV and volunteer with them or help them. Do not try and become someone's agent to increase their business.
What the point of meeting a law maker, exchange pleasantries? They aren't going to write a Bill because 1 person said so.
Read my post again, I am legal, EB2 India I-140 approved.
Repeat, Not associated with any lawyer or party.
I am trying to get people to join together - but you can't see that.

Agreed. Changing the spillover rule is the easiest in this bad economy.
How about we propose to USCIS/DOS to give spillover based on PD and not based on Category. This way EB3-I and EB2-I will move forward steadily without any fuss. I know initially it will help most of EB3-I but once EB3-I catches up with EB2-I then both can move forward together.
Just a thought. I am sure EB2-I will give me lots of reds but I don't care.
Well, we have to do something. Everybody got ideas but who is working on them? I am ready to send as many letters if needed but I need some help composing that letter bcoz I am not good at writing. Can somebody come forward for that?
I agreed with you.
Use spill over visa to give GC based on PD not on country specific. It will solve the backlog in 2 uears. Right now EB2 I and C getting spill over from EB1 as well from EB2 ROW.
This is not fair for EB3.

People like me are sitting on the fence. I wouldn't regret even if I don't get a GC at all...Sometimes, I feel that I am just waiting for any chance to go back to India... It is just the consideration of continuity in life for the family that really is driving me every day... It doesn't mean I will feel bad if I get the GC. The wait is simply not worth it. been living in multiple countries for the past 13 years... US is one another country for me.... That is just my case. I visit the forum and post in here because I can just monitor the situation... It is like monitoring my stocks, news on Libya,World cup, etc. Don't get me wrong guys... I wanted to share my facts.
