Great work, hopefully we can reach out more and more like this to make the senators/congressmen aware of our situations/concerns.

Hi,
I am planning to start a new petition in EB2 and use my EB3 2003 PD.
What I gather from here is that the EB2 PERM has almost 100% chance of getting audited due to the current economy.
I am planning the EB2 with a different employer.
I have the following questions:
1) Since I am going with a different employer can I use a different ODot code than what was used when filing my EB3 labor in RIR? ( I am guessing the codes differ slightly from the old labor certification days anyways)
2) What would happen if by bad luck my new PERM gets denied? Will my old EB3 petition continue to be valid?
Any advise is greatly appreciated.

GotGC??,
I don't think ppl understand how painful the wait in BEC's has been.
I am really apalled by the ppl in this thread who are saying don't complain about BEC. Their reaction can be summarized as follows:
"We are sorry you got have been getting screwed by BEC for 3-5 years but please be happy for those of us who started in PERM in 2005 and have been moaning about retrogression"
Oh Yeah??
So why didn't we accept the current retrogression as "injustice and screwed up process of USCIS" and just sat tight? Why did IV get started? Why threadful of messages moaning in agony over the retrogression? What warranted those threads, and for that matter, IV then?

This H1B drama has really brought out the "indian" in each one of us (you). God Forbid, some of the anti-immigrant agencies see this, we will no face to fight.
To say something like what logiclife has said only brings out the true face of the some people behind immigrationvoice.org. It all boils down to "who has a US degree and who hasnt"..well, Mr logiclife, You dont know the value of a US degree simply because you dont have one! I want my GC as much as some people here without a US degree, but to classify a US degree as being the same as "warm spit" is just plain "uneducated". Now, I really appreciate all that immigrationvoice.org is doing for our community, but some of the these stupid racist comments from the so-called administartors,with such an attitude,who happen to meet the US lawmakers scares me a lot.
There are people who have done Masters in computer science in USA, graduated in 2002 and 2003 from top 50 universities and ended up getting training from desi bodyshops who we all love to hate. That training made them capable of gettting H1 and paycheck, not the books they read in US masters courses.
If US universities were up to the job of teaching people what was demanded by market, these folks wouldnt have had to go to desi bodyshops do get training.
I dont have US masters. I had enrolled in US masters degree in fall 2000. I left after 1 semester. During my brief stint as a student of Masters in Computer Science, I did get an opportunity to see what the courses are and what they really teach.
The reason I am lashing at some folks here is that some people are thinking that the Durbin-Grassley bill will benefit them because it will end consulting. Some people dont realize that most US masters degree holders, both MBA and MS (Computer science) find out that in order to get an H1, consulting is THE ONLY OPTION, especially when INTEL, Oracle and Cisco arent recruiting, they do go and stand in queue in front of consutling companies (Desi or otherwise). Also, people doing full-time jobs in silicon valley (what some people call "real jobs") also do fall back to consulting when they are laid off.
When employees of chipmaking and software development companies are laid off en masse, (and many of whom have masters degree from USA) where do they do to fall back and file H1 before the grace period expires?
CONSULTING.
To say that US masters degree holders dont need "Consulting" is the most stupid comment I have ever heard. Also, how important you are to this country or tech industry is to be decided by your boss and your employer. Not by what degrees you have in your resume. So by saying that "We have masters, we deserve better" isnt really going to jive with reality. People get masters degree mostly because its a stepping stone to H1B, just like H1B is the stepping stone to GC. Very few people do masters because they want to learn hi-tech stuff or to get better education.
My comment that you are criticizing was response to such post that said "Durbin Grassley bill is good for US degree holders because we really dont need consulting". Well, you very much do need consulting.
Also, I am seeing lots of grad students and masters degree holders happy about Durbin-Grassley bill. Some of them are under the impression that since they dont do consulting, its good for them since people doing consulting will be out of the queue and that loss will be their gain.
Its really pathetic. This elitist attitude gets organizations in trouble.
This whole attitude of "I dont care as long as its the other guy taking the hit" will cause failure.

Guys, here the form to file a complaint on L1A - EB1 misuse by indian IT companies
http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/wh-4.pdf
Here's the process..http://www.dol.gov/esa/whd/forms/fts_wh4.htm
If you have a genuine case and know the company name who resort to these shady practices, Please fill this form and send it across to DOL. You do not need to provide your personal information if you are not willing to.
Rest, they will investigate and take care..
I am one of those who couldn't file in EB1 but that is past and long gone for me.
You need to write to USCIS and Ombudsman. Labor department does not approve such petitions.

Guys,
Thanks for the quick response, much appreciated. I think I have the answer to my question.
Essentially:
1. RD will determine sequence in which AOS are looked at by case officers at USCIS. So July applicants with 2006 PD will geat EAD/AP, etc sooner than October applicants with 2002 PD.
2. In the event of retrogression (say to 2005), only those applications which have a current PD at the time of visa approval will get the green card. So 2002 PD will get GC before 2006 PD.
I hope I understood correctly?

Application efiled at NSC on April 14.
Still no sign of the EAD
NSC is slow compared to TSC and also they start the EAD on the day it is approved and not when the previous one expires.
Somebody, needs to take this up with the Ombudsman due to difference in the processing policies and times for EAD renewals.
Application received by NSC on April 8th.
Still no sign of the EAD :mad:
Beginning to get jittery now...

I may be wrong, but I had different impression. If officer felt that GC can be given in one year they issued 1 year EAD, other wise 2 years EAD. When I got 2 years EAD, I was not happy about it.
But several things go wrong and people might not have got GC despite getting 1 year EAD. I feel that people getting 1 year EAD must have every thing ready, just waiting for their Visa Number.
Dhundhun, You are right..... it was meant to be like that. But, eventually, it's all at the whim of person handling ---OR how else, we can explain: One spouse getting for 2-yr duration n other for 1- yr. This happened to me.... The fact is we can not question their action.

http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_tracker&Itemid=63
IV members are requested to update their profile with valid dates so that we can make IV tracker helpful for everyone.
I have personally decided to make this request to everyone who does not have their details completed and only then respond to the member. If a member has bogus data in their profile for tracking purposes I would not be replying to that post. This might help encourage members wanting replies from IV core team for their questions.
Thanks, and i have. But there seems to be bugs in the tracker. For eg the filtering doesn seem to work and the page looks broken :confused: Would it be possible that these are fixed soon ? Great idea by the way.

Well I really think this is reasonable suggestion to factor Priority Date to determine eligibility for citizenship. It could be 5 or 10 years past your priority and only after approval of green card. Currently many people wait for 8 to 10 years for green card and another 5 years to be eligible for citizenship and some lucky ones get green card in 2 to 3 years and citizenship in another 5 years. System should somehow be balanced to have close to uniform wait times towards citizenship for all.
sorry to sound like a beaten record - but it seems that everyone here pretty much sees citizenship as fait accompli!
how has our respective motherlands harmed us that despite being pushed around by US for years on end -we are desperately seeking US citizenship?? after all - in many cases - its the basic and advanced education received at our respective countries that has made us qualify as "highly skilled" immigrants here.....
go ahead - put all the red dots - but do some soul searching before that!
here is the first line of US citizenship oath - "I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen" - while i can absolutely live in US as a law-abiding, tax-paying resident - how can i renounce my country of birth?
