Good if it happens. But when? What makes it to say it is dead for the lawmakers. If it is likely to be dead by the end of July, then what for the hearings in the month of august before the next recession? No hopes for anything, until something is signed by the president. Any new BILL, agian the same senate, congress, commitee process and KILL it at the end. Hmmm it is just my frustration and I am not blaming anyone. I am there to fight till the end(?? I dunno where the end is though).
Answering for Logiclife, whose time zone is a couple hours behind.
CIR will likely not be VOTED dead. There just will not be anything done about naming a Conference committee. If a committee is indeed named, but they don't produce a report in 2-3 weeks, then CIR would be deemed dead.
The bottom line is, if nothing happens by the end of July, CIR will likely be dead.
We will be looking at other options much before the end of July. The problem for us is that no other legislation will be considered before the end of July.

Guys,
There is no point in fighting over the inconsistency of CIS in picking applications. All of us know that a lot of people got approved last year during visa gate and many were left over even though their PD's are current. No one knows how USCIS picks an application for adjudication. It is clearly neither completely RD based nor PD based. It's up to the whims and fancies of CIS.
If IV were to make agenda's on the inconsistencies of USCIS, the list will be endless.
I have 04 PD and am waiting. I have friends with 06 PD's who got approved. I know its frustrating to watch your friends get approved and to have your own case pending for no reason. But this is NOT some thing we should be surprised about. CIS is trying to maximize visa number usage and trying to approve as many applications as they can. All of July 07 filers have passed the 180 days since the FBI name check has been initiated and ideally CIS should be approving applications with old PD's. We all know that we don't live in an ideal world. Imagine all these visa numbers going wasted. I personally (NOT IV) will try to get an answer to this FIFO issue, but the situation itself is short lived and probably will not exist by Oct 1st 08.

I have a question reg. the unfair vertical spill devised by USCIS when allocating the visa numbers after the initial allocation is completed.
If the country needs EB1 categories first then the EB2 categories and then EB3 then why did they allocate equal numbers to all the three categories initially. If they needed more EB1 or EB 2 compared to EB 3 numbers they should have given 3x of numbers to EB1, 2x of numbers to EB2, and only 1x or less than that to EB3 when doing the initial allocation itself.
Its only due to some genius person's invention that USCIS decided to implement vertical spill over instead of doing a hoirzontal spill over of the numbers which will be fair.
Now the EB2 folks are going to comeback and say that EB2 deserve more rights and all that blah blah aka the fight people give whenever somebody tries to remove the unfair quota system in India. Grow up and behave like an educated person.
You can say that EB2 folks earn more... give me a break I know many EB3 folks who earn atleast 2 times more than whan an average EB2 guy earns. Its just a matter of luck(in the current scenario) that a person got applied in EB2 or EB3 category
You are taking it personally, this is not a question of you being skilled, deserving, fair skinned, blue eyed, or hairless. Why not all the spillover to to the family based gcs?
Think of it, uniting families is more important for a nation.
Why do you think even in the FB there are categories, how come there is not a quota for spouses of US citizens?
You are either not qualified for EB2 or your job is not qualified for EB2, now whose fault is it? Again, its not how much you earn, it is not how lucky you are. The EB category was not some boon, your HR manager, your lawyer, your manager came together and made the decision, last but not least your agreed to all this. EB2 is not some elitist club, you are welcome to join it, go talk to your HR manager, he controls the membership.

First of all, congrats to everyone in the final stages of this tedious and frustrating process.
I have a question for people who filed I-140 and I-485 concurrently and got their receipt numbers.
I have gotten receipt numbers for my concurrently filed I-485 and I-765 as I paid for them (PD April 2003, I-140/I-485 filed at NSC). I do not have receipt for I-140 after more than 2 weeks. My employer is not giving me receipt number for I-140 as he may be wanting more money from me. Now, I have read in a forum that I-140 when applied concurrently should have receipt number very close to I-485 receipt number and normally I-140 receipt number is less than I-485 receipt number (i.e. if I-485's last four digits are 4600 then last 4 for I-140 number will be lower than 4600 and close to it. So, in theory I can scan numbers prior to mine and find closer ones for the same date and track them.
If you can please check your numbers and tell me if your I-140 number is before your I-485 number and how close they are to each other, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

My employer is also behaving exactly similar way... Spend the money from your own Pocket ( 350 med + 385 ) around $750 and ask them to just
give the Future Employment Verification Letter for 485.
I'm finishing up all forms and other activities Like Medical , Birth Certificate etc..
After that pounce on your employer for Letter + the fees for 485 + fees for your own attorney fees ... If they disagrees come to a deal with just for the Letter... You are all set then !!
If they still dont agree i'll tell them that you are resigning and immigrating to Canada (Tell them that your Canadian PR is almost approved and you have a distant relative there)
Sounds like a Plan ? - Let me know !
But don't you need copy of 140 also?
Canda is not the only option.You can tell them that u r resigning.In that case u might not win but atleast he will loose everything.So might be he will ready.

Hi All,
I went to PR landing in Toronto in Oct07. No prob in Canadian Side. The issue is if you don't have stamped h1-B and are trying to use "AVR" rule, its scary. The officer harassed me and told me that I was trying to use the loophole of the system. He said that it's up to his discretion to let me in to USA. He highlighted the part in H-1b and made me read it as well. I had to talk about some excuse but would not listen. Finally he let me in and asked me to make sure and reserve a visa appointment for later date at us consulate at Canada. He said that you need to show that at least your are trying to make an attempt to obtain visa,not just go back and forth. When I came back I made a visa reservation and kept a printout of it. Later you can cancel it. It just depends on the officer whom you enconter.
I even heard some officer even asked you to choose either Canadian PR or US PR if they know your AOS is pending but not both.
So, Its little tricky but don't get too scared. Be polite to the officer, have a printout of visa reservation and tell them that it takes at least 3 months to get an appointment and I have to travel to Canada in emergency(pr landing)
Thanks

People shouldn't get too panicked. It's not like uscis is denying all cases.
Before it was rare now they are just getting more difficult. California rfe's are a little difficult and unless y you make sloppy mistakes; they generally approve them.
vermont is where they are going above and beyond in scrutinizing cases. Most companies who file through california are used to the issues and have adapted. However; what vermont is doing is fairly new and companies in vermont region are not used to the expectations of that particular service center since they were very easy in the past.
