So my old company's lawyers got my Denial Notice today. USCIS is unbelievable in their incompetence. I got denied because apparently I filed when a visa date was not available. Why would i do such a stupid thing? Obviously the IO didnt take the time to do a little research to see why I filed when I did, nor did his Director who rubber-stamped the denial.
My I-485 was filed on August 2nd, 2007. The August 2007 visa bulletin released on July 12th, 2007 did indicate UNAVAILABLE (http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_3269.html). However, USCIS, amended that a few days later with an update allowing a month (through August 17, 2007) for all individuals who were current as of the July 2007 bulletin (including me) to file. See the attached link: http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/VisaBulletinUpdate17Jul07.pdf, USCIS issues an update allowing
It took me about 1.5 minutes on Google to locate the Update Memo. To think that an IO cannot locate this essential memo and would blatantly deny a valid application is beyond me. This is insane that an organization as important as the USCIS can be so inefficient.
I called their customer service number to see if i could resolve it in a simple manner. The jerk of an IO I spoke to said "you are not going to like what I am going to say, but you are currently out of status (since I am on EAD and AP) and will need to file an MTR. People may tell you to not pay the fee for the MTR, but I recommend you do, since that is the only way your case will be reviewed"
Thanks Jerk - i hope the Ombudsman's office gets to the bottom of these erroneous denials and fires all y'all.
I know i would have lost my job if i made such a life-altering and blatant error!!
I cant believe an Infopass can't resolve this, and I need to go down the MTR route.

Hello Everybody
This is my first post. I worked my ass off to get a favorable
solution for retrogression during the budget bill. But as everyone knows it was defeated in the house reconcilation. I'm not being pessimistic but my gut feeling is that eventhough senate comes with something, the chances are slim that the house would agree to it. Sensenbrenners bill which house passed has no provisions for EB immigrants and backlogs. I'm pretty sure all of you are aware of Mr. Tancredo's fury against immigrants too.
Having said that I dont mean we have no way out. We have to work very very hard. We have to raise money and do some hard lobbying. But above all we have to get our employers to back this issue. With all of the above reasons I think it might be a very bad idea to guess we would have any favorable legislation in a shorter span of time. So we have to plan something for a longer period of time and execute it very diligantly, I guess.
I think Immigrationvoice is on the right path... Lets face it people!!!
thanks

Does this mean that an MTR filed without the filing fee is automatically considered an appeal?
I don't think so. For an appeal - those boxes must be checked. Once again - I might be wrong.
Sometimes they return the forms back saying - please file it with a fee - sometimes they keep it - WE DONT KNOW

Yes, there is no point in re-filing,rather it will create confusion. I spoke to USCIS ,at this point the fedex receipt no. is good enough ,to prve that your application reached service center,before 17th august . Now it makes sense to just wait for the receipt.
People can show someone elses fedex receipt and claim that they too mailed their application. How can USCIS find out which fedex receipt is for what application?

I didn’t want to go to DC rally due to my surgery appointment (September 6th) because I can not fly for three weeks after the surgery.
Guess what?, I have postponed my surgery appointment date, booked tickets and going to DC rally on Monday evening and flying back on Tuesday night.
I also urge people to take a day off and attend the rally.

actually that is not what i understand...though we should wait for
1. some lawyer to come up with clarifications.
2. updates to the adjudicator field manual.
i think this still upholds the memorandum with regards to porting off on unapproved i-140. if you notice the case they have cited "Matter of Al Wazzan" is date Oct, 2005 where as the favourable Yates memo came out in Dec 2005.
what i understand is that they are just reiterating that porting off on unapproved i-140 is not automatic and requires that the adjudicator decide on the pending i-140 first before deciding wether the porting off is protected under AC21 or not.
but again...i myself am waiting for clarifications from immigration law websites like murthy.com and immigration-law.com etc.

Define "unprofessional" and how it applies to the replies here?
In what part of the world is standing up against drug peddlers and traffickers is limited to "personal" interpretations of moral? Drug laws are not intended to satisfy some lawmakers personal morals, but it is there because selling drugs is illegal regardless of what yours, mine or anyone else's personal moral fabric is.
What the hell are you talking about and what are YOU smoking?
Listen kid, i don't wanna get into a mud slinging immature tough-behind-the-keyboard match with you, i've seen you respond in here and its funny how you keep using the same line over and over again, lol.
Again, if you don't get the difference between the tone of a professional response against a personal opinion based lash-back then thats your problem not mine :)

I understand your frustration but people here are just wondering if they get LUD, are they also getting RFE, if you see the posts above, lot of fols who sent the apps in that period got LUDs. It doesnt hurt to follow the trend. So be cool ..
And we certainly dont need the 'language' here.

This is a pretty serious issue and needs to be looked at carefully - it could mean a significant difference to wait times for Indians and Chinese in EB2 category.

Hi All
I just saw the USCIS GC approval email notice - EB2-I - Dec 20'th 2005 Priority Date
I have same issue as few others have. I'm not married yet. I have applied for GC and luckily the GC has been approved (when I really don't want it to be approved). ... Trust me I was praying god all the time.
My priority date is EB2-I Dec 20'th 2005 and god knows how they approved it much before every one else. When all others really want their GC's.
There are lots people who are in queue with Jan 2004 and later priority dates and whose cases are still pending... How could they approve my case so soon...
I have scheduled for a travel to India on August 15'th 2008 to get married. I wanted to marry and get my wife to USA. I 'm engaged with girl at India and all set for marriage this month (August 2008).
I believe my H1-B has been automatically canceled on immediate approval of GC.
How do I get my future wife to USA?. What are the options left out to me now?.
Please excuse me if this is a duplicate thread. I'm really in hurry and could not check all threads properly.

I followed up on your GC status from Mr. Gonzales. He assured me that your GC has been sent via Speed Post: it should arrive within the next 4-6 business days. If it doesn't, please don't hesitate to call the toll free #: 1-800-NO-GC-4-ANA
Ok, I've seen a lot of threads about go to the rally, actions items, I've reading a lot of guys saying dont ask for your receipt status, dont waste your time etc, etc.
Yes we did the rally we were great with all those signs, and appearing in the Indy TV but...
Question remains open:
1. When are they going to increase the GC quota?
2. When congress id going to do something?
I've the feeling that that's it we made our point but we are still with no GC, waiting receipts..............

02/28/2008: FBI Name Check Backlogs Eligible for 485 Adjudication in Service Centers
* According to the withdrawn USCIS FAQ on FBI Name Check Backlog I-485 case new adjudication policy after 180 days of name check request, they estimated the total eligible 485 cases at 46,000 or something. Now, according to the AILA Q&A with the USCIS HQ Service Center Operation office on February 20, 2008, the Service Centers located approximatlely 10,000 cases that were waiting name checks only and they estimated that there would be additional 15,000 cases that would fit the new policy. There is no specific timeline announced, but there are some indications that these cases may be adjudicated from one month to approximately three or four months. It appears that the USCIS is mindful of the potential EB visa number retrogression and may want to adjudicate these cases as soon as possible.

I think what he is saying demands attention by the lawyers and core members.Thing is we never know what is going on until there is some transparency. The law many times is open to suit ones needs and I suspect DOS may be doing that.
