Could it be that the AILA is talking about the 4th category and AILF's Legal Action Center is seeking plaintiffs - mainly 4th category that got their applications rejected?
AILA Follow-up to Update on July Visa Availability
From: AILA National
Sent: Friday, June 29, 2007 5:48 PM
Subject: Follow-up to Update on July Visa Availability
Further to the email earlier today about July visa availability:
Several members have asked whether they should continue in their efforts to
file adjustment of status applications for employment-based cases. Of course
, this is a matter for each attorney's best judgment, but note that:
-It is not certain what day the revised Bulletin will be issued.
-It is possible that the revised bulletin will not issue at all--efforts to
stop this unprecedented action are being pursued.
-If you "front desk" the application, i.e. decide it is futile to file, and
a remedy opens up later, having submitted the applications may improve the
chances of utlizing whatever fix might be available.
-If you do submit the adjustments, be sure to use a method whereby you can
document delivery, and keep that documentation for each client.
-AILF's Legal Action Center is seeking plaintiffs with respect to both the
adjustment applications that were or are expected to be rejected for June
and the adjustment applications that are expected to be rejected in July. Go
to InfoNet Document # 07062975: http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=22798 on InfoNet for the Potential Plaintiff Questionnaire and related FAQ.
We cannot predict now what will happen, but will continue to update the
membership as developments occur.

Thanks for the comments...I'll personally come and see you off at the airport when you are ready to leave. I gusess you have your bags packed already.
Just so you know we are not begging for GC we've earned it.
Hello all
I am a silent visitor of this website.
Just my 2 cents... Don't think USA is like India where you can do something forcefully. Why don't you guys understand the real problem of USCIS.
Do you think that by sending flower to USCIS will force them to make EB2/EB3 current for 2005/2006/2007 guys??
Please try to understand their problem.
Also India is the great. Why don't you guys just think that India is your home country where you are born and brought up. Why you people can't just wait and watch?? If nothing happens to the so called GC, then why don't you think to pack up and go back to India???????
My sincere request, please don't do rally, you might be arrested......you never know what they can do..... Don't you think that, it is better to go back to India rather than being embarrassed here in US???
Isn't it a shame on us to go for Rally to get GC?????:D
Just think that you will get it when time comes, otherwise pack up.
Please don't take much tension as life is very short. I am assuring you all, nothing will happen with law suit and flower campaign.Don't irritate USCIS by doing all this please.

These Numbers are based on the Priority dates of the applicants who filed their Labor.
If you look into the India Category for EB2 and EB3 for July 2007, The Number of Applications filed as per the document are both 1655 and 893 respectively. During July 2007, the dates for EB2-I and EB3-I are current, the USCIS is bombarded with the applications.
I think the Document shows the applicants who started their green card (labor) process.
Thanks

Hello Logiclife,
The information you provided is very useful. Will go look for David Heenan's book.
Here is the book that I am trying to read - 'Flight of the Creative Class' by Dr. Richard Florida. Here is the extract from this book -
Chapter 4 – The Closing of America? - Page 112
The rejection rate of H-1B visas (also called “high-skilled visas”), which allow professionals who are not U.S. citizens to work in the country for up to six years, increased from 9.5 to 17.8 percent between 2001 and 2003.
Chapter 4 – The Closing of America? - Page 117
By 2003, antiterrorism measures began to catch up not just with visa applications but also with requests for more permanent U.S. residence. Thanks to delays in the processing of green-card applications, only 705,827 people became legal permanent residents that year, down from 1.06 million in 2002. This decline is the steepest since 1953, when Joseph McCarthy stoked fears that Communists were invading the government and general population. Nearly half of those affected by the government slowdown in 2003 were foreign students, workers, and others already residing in the U.S. and hoping to become permanent residents. Such figures may understate the extent of the problem-which were backlogged to more than 6 million by the end of the fiscal year 2003. Of these over 6 million people whose legal lives as residents were put on hold, roughly 3.6 million have had applications pending for more than six months.
The practical, everyday implications of such a wait can be exasperating. Without a green card, many immigrants are prohibited from traveling, denied the benefit of in-state tuition rates, or even put at risk for job loss and deportation if the wait goes on too long. These risks accrue not only to individuals and families but to the businesses that hire them and need their skills.
There is lot more to share but I am not able to put all this on the discussion forum thread. Will add more to this later.

I tend to agree with both.
You need strong arguments and they need to have legal basis. Laws cannot be changed by an agency that only follows laws.
If you are eligible for EB2 and cannot file in Eb2 and your employer filed in Eb3, it is not a strong argument. Likewise you cannot change the spillover rule without strong legal justification. You need change of law.
Visa recapture is the best option.
Any big action iteam coming for VISA RECAPTURE FROM IV CORE ?
should't we start aggressive calling campaign for HR 5882 ? like one we did for sub committe hearing.. or may be big event like rally in DC ..

1) Does finger-printing & name check go together?
2) When FBI sends it to uscis does it mean nc/fp cleared?.
Any thoughts on this?

wow...u guys have made my decision easier...better to go via ny directly to mumbai
I have flown on Continental from Newark to Mumbai non-stop. The best international flight experience so far! I bought the ticket online at their website. Guess what! It was almost 60% the price of lowest price travel agents were quoting on other airlines!
The flight is a bit long lasting just under 15 hours. But, it leaves at around 8 PM. After an in-flight dinner, it is bedtime. People who have taken overnight bus journeys in India, this is not much different. If you can manage to sleep in that half sitting position (I cannot!) then it is that much better. You wake up, eat breakfast, spend 3-4 hours enjoying their inflight individual entertaintment unit, and soon it is time to land in Mumbai.
There is no hassle with food either. Indian veg is part of their standard offering. So, no hassle of ordering AVML and hoping that they will remember to serve it to you.
The down side:
1) The length - at 15 hours (16.5 hours during return), it can get too much.
2) The service is as bad as any US domestic flight.
3) If you do not live in Mumbai or Delhi, your journey would not end with this flight.
I see that more airlines are moving towards this long haul model with flights lasting over 12 hours. I think it is great, because we avoid all transit hassles, such as security, transit visa, etc., etc.
Soon, AI, Jet and Kingfisher are going to enter into this market. Hopefully more cities in India will connected to more cities in US this way.

Congress has begun a 10-day recess. The House and Senate are scheduled to return the week of February 27. When they return, the Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to take up comprehensive immigration reform, probably beginning March 2. On March 27 this bill will be brought to the floor of the Senate.
www.immigration-law.com also posted information about Comprehensive bill suggesting that on 02/16/2006, the Executive Business Meeting of the Senate Judiciary marked up the Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill. We have not yet found the mark up document. If anybody is able to find this document, please post let everybody know.
There are two pieces of Innovation/Competitiveness bills that are being considered:
1.) Protecting America’s Competitive Edge Acts (PACE)
This act is based on Augustine report. This act is sponsored by Domenici-Bingaman-Alexander-Mikulski. There are 60 Senators who have endorsed this act. This act is being supported by Craig Barrett and other hi-tech industry leaders. The link below provides the summary. Section 314 of the education part of this act contains some of the provisions for Employment based immigration.
http://www.asertti.org/news/documents/PACE_Summary.pdf
2.) National Innovation Act (NIA) of 2005
This act is based on Report of Council of Competitiveness (Immivationamerica.org/Compete.org report of 2005). This act is sponsored by Senator Lieberman (CT) and Senator John Ensign (NV). At this time this act has support of 25 Senators. This act is also being supported by Craig Barrett who is co-chair for the academy that is involved with NIA. There are other executives of high profile companies who are supporting this initiative. The link below provides the summary. Could not find much on employment based immigration other than the fact that this act is asking for $1 Million to conduct a study to find out the right numbers of legal plus employment based immigration. So this looks like a long shot.
http://www.compete.org/pdf/National_Innovation_Act%20-%20Section_by_Section.pdf
Both Innovation/Competitiveness acts are not competing with each other but rather complementing each other. The people and substance involved in both the acts are similar. Just that they provide slightly different solution to the situation where PACE provides for additional funding and slightly more aggressive than NIA. Both the bills have very broad & bi-partisan support in Senate. However, it is getting slightly tougher to get support from the House for these bills.

Folks,
I sent the letters and also invoked the AC21 through a lawyer a month ago. However, inspite of all this, I see a new update for my 140 petition today -
Application Type: I140, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER
Current Status: Withdrawal Acknowledgment Notice Sent
On November 5, 2008, we mailed a notice acknowledging withdrawal of this application or petition I140 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER. If you have not received the notice within 30 days of November 5, 2008, contact our customer service at 1-800-375-5283. If at some point in the future you wish to pursue the benefits provided by this application or petition, you must file a new application along with all applicable fees and evidence.
I am not sure if this means that my 485 will be denied shortly...
This could be a new status message by USCIS when 140 is withdrawn by employer. If I am not worng, the notice that they mailed out, will gop to employer and not you.
Call customer service to know about ur 485. I am hoping it will be fine as you filed for ac21

If 5882 is resurrected and debated, we should definitely do something - anything that time. But if not, and this (lets make calls! lets write! lets send flowers!) is another of lets do it because 10 people think its a great idea, not a coordinated campaign coming from IV core, count me out.
I've always made the calls, contributed money, etc, but I'm getting a bit tired of this "charge of the light brigade" mentality. If there is zero chance of something happening, but everyone is told to make calls, contribute and after all the rah, rah, sis, boob, ba everything fizzles out, and it happens 4 times a year, the mood sours.
Doesn't mean I recommend switching off the whole process and giving up. But the best way to beat apathy and cynicism to make sure we pick our fights. Fight only the winnable ones, and keep the powder dry at other times.
Just my opinion.

Friends
Here is a suggestion, who ever decides to join Vonage now, can use a referral link from one of the member, who is already a vonage customer, so that he can get 2 months off. Now the member who got 2 months off, can either donate two months bill amount or one month (if he choose to retain one month off) to forum.;)
What do u guys think?
Infact not only this, we can use any other similar referral programs, like Direct TV 100 offer etc..
Good Idea.I'll donate 2 months amount.If someone wants to get referred please send a Private Message to me.
