I think we need to be careful these kind of conversations aren't detrimental to the current campaign and to IV. I am new here, but I do also feel the drive that chanduv23 has and you know, sometimes you do feel like posting it everywhere and on your forehead. This backlog situation sometimes gets the better of us! I am all for organizing too, we need that. But I do sympathize with those who feel desperate to reach as many visitors as possible. There are still folk out there who would like to send their letter, let's encourage them and still be organized. I promise to keep my posts to threads already existing from now on. Thanks :)

Does anyone have PHP experince for this work? Please PM me.
Thanks
I like ur idea, can you design this or get someone to do this. It still has to have the same basic principle. we all have ideas we need someone to actually do this since we are mostly IT folks with programming skills can we get a volunteer or a group of volunteer who can do this?

I landed in Canada in April 2005 so I have until April 2008. However if I decide to do this I may move by Jan 2008 latest ( probaly earlier - If you are from a warm state I would urge you never to move to Canada in winter because your life will be hell. Getting used to a new place is bad enough without the clold weather).
I would love to be an optimist but Im not certain my PD will be current in 1 yr. I think we all underestimate the 245 i angle. If however my PD does get current then this whole issue is null and void.

As long as your wife is getting paid by Canadian Payroll as a Canadian employee she should be fine. Even better if pay is in canadian dollars and being deposited in a canadian bank account. This should not be an issue.

Ok send me a brief detail about this person and I will pass on to the reporter. if the reporter wishes, this person can be contacted for permission.

Folks:
I am one of the frustrated ones under EB-3 (India) with a PD of Jul 2003. My case is as follows:
I had 3.5 years of experience + MBA from India when I joined the current Job in 2001.
I applied for my GC in 2003 and the lawyer said since my MBA was not relevant for the current job (software engineer) and since my experience before the current job was less than 5 years, I should apply EB-3.
Currently, I have 11 years of experience (out of which 7.5 is with the current employer from whom I have applied for GC) and I have moved to Business Development that uses my MBA quals.
Can I change to EB-2? What do I need to do? What are the risks?
Any/all pointers will be appreciated
Karthik,
(I am not expert) but I believe , you have to refile (New application) under EB2 catagory and port the EB3 date to EB2.

I for one will not be surprised. These undocumented immigrants march in thousands at their rallies [even though they face chances of deportation]. They are active in talking to media and getting publicity for their cause. They are also more actively contributing to help their cause. They have very strong backers - Agri-business, fast-food chains, restaurant owners, construction business , and immigration attorneys [ who will make lot of money if Z-visa gets passed], strong ethnocentric groups with considerable political clout, and many of them have US citizen relatives [who vote]
On the other hand, support of many immigration attoneys to EB immigration is half-hearted, high-tech employers care more about increasing H1B quota. Like it or not - IV is the only organization that is 100% devoted to EB immigration and working for our cause. Given this reality, IV should have got full support monetary and participation from 25,000 strong community here. As we know, only a minority of the community are doing all they can to help IV achieve its goal.
If we are not doing enough to help our cause, what right to we have to blame others for not helping us? In a way, we do deserve the step-motherly treatment for all the lethargy our community shows in standing up for its issues, and demanding a solution.
We will see and will be surprised to see that an illegal will be granted a status independent of an employer and will also have the travel permit and he/she can live here forever renewing his status.

Guys how does one edit a poll after creation.
Can somebody from Iv admin modify the poll so users can see who has voted what here.
So, obviously, you are not expecting any EB3 I to vote, right?
Or do you want EB3 I also to vote?

I have been feeling sad that I have not been able to make it to the rally and after hearing about the energy, the camaraderie and the excitement you all shared I know for sure I missed out on a once in a life time oppurtunity, there will always be that sadness in me, the only comfort I have is that I tried to contribute in ways other than attending the rally.
But I am very glad that this turned out be such a resounding success.
IV ROCKS
U bet - but your support from the behind was great :)

With regard to HSMP issues in UK some Indian Minister (I think PC Chidambram...) made a public comment a few days back and the political establishment in UK took notice.
For US, people need to write to India's PM Manmohan Singh. If 50,000 letters go to him then he will talk to Bush and something can work out. NRIs anyway have a lot of say now in Delhi unlike 10 years back when they were totally disliked. Just wasting time on chat boards will lead to nothing. Even Microsoft and Intel are unable to convince politicians here. It has to come from a higher authority with whom there are mutual stakes involved. Manmohan Singh is the only guy who can help here because today there are several mutually important and high stake issues between India and US.

Saw your message. Thanks.
If that is the sole reason for denial, consider filing an appeal and think of a backup plan. Get a good lawyer if you do not have one.
Thanks Pappu.
I am having a good attorney .He is desi , He is reputed , have good experience , he has got good web site also. He is waiting to see what is there in the denial notice.The denial update on website is 18th.so it may take another 3 weeks for him to receive the notice.
In the mean while I am trying to get an employer to file a Labor as future Employee.since only 6 months left on H1b , I dont know what options are left for me.:confused:
since the I-140 is not clered, my priority date canot be captured.
6years( 4 years for labor , almost 2years for I-140) of waiting and $12000 gone to drain.:mad:
thank you very much for suggestions

JOb title/Description is significantly similar. I will inform USCIS. I am really glad we have this option so we can make choices on what is the best place to work for us rather than get beat up by fate and long timelines and stick to someplace where one is not happy or progressing anywhere. My downside is I have to sell my house :(

I was just thinking, the wastage of visa numbers we see, is that basically due to the per country quota. The rule that no country can have more than X% of GC's in a year, would mean that even though there are visa's available, they cannot be alloted due to that per country limit.
Anyway the smaller number of application is good news.
-AD
thats not true...ac21 is under suspension because eb3 row is retrogressed...once its not, the ac21 trickle down of visa numbers applies.
