I think over this issue several times (my kids are of this age).
A person (Indian) with green card marrying to an Indian Citizen (whether in Indian or on H1 Visa or on F1 Visa) offers no help but adds misiries to spouse and family.
Somtimes I think, it to be a pressure technique - hey now you have GC and you are unmarried - so marry American (or GC holder) and contribute to growth and well being of those who are already in US.
My 2 cents on this situation.

Since I am older and wiser now, I can easily take them.
Yes, I must correct myself. It is not 525 (even though that is what the ever hurrying radio talk show hosts said).
That's even better. Percentage wise it is now 300/435. How about that?
I was away this morning for a big community project that I am involved in. I wanted to round that off with a morning brunch with the Congressman I quoted, but couldn't pull it off. I had met Mr. Mark Udall a couple of times in Friendship and Business Chamber get together in Denver, CO. He is a fine gentleman.
I prey his words come true at the earliest. Got to go. Have to mow the lawn, as per home minister/ interior secretary.
Bye. Ciao.
I have a quick question about Udall. He is the Boulder and Longmont representative and a Democrat. This gentleman though voted against S1932 (hope I got the December bill right) when it went to the house. Do correct me if I am wrong. That was an appropriations bill so his view on immigration may not directly be represented by his vote. Would you by any chance know where Udall himself stands on the whole issue.

Yes I think you ar confusing the processing times with the actual bulletin date.

I think EB2 India may be retrogressed only for the month of September as most of the visas will be used in August itself. The dates will rapidly advance once again with the new quota in October. I think it is very likely that EB2 will be compensated with the number of visas that were improperly given to EB3 last year. So I expect EB2 to receive those extra visas from EB3 quota next year as DOS will try to compensate retrogressed countries in EB2 for the mistake that they made last year. If this happens, EB2 may become current very soon.
I strongly think DOS tried to compensate EB2 this year itself with the visas that were improperly given to EB3 last year after it received the directives from the US Congress. But unfortunately DOS could not compensate EB2 with the lost visas this year as there were no visas left in EB3 by the time they realized their mistake about 2 months ago as EB3 used most of their visas. This is exactly why DOS made EB3 unavailable so that they can compensate EB2 atleast to some extent. By law they are required to compensate a category that was artificially retrogressed because of their mistakes. It is highly unlikely we will see any significant movement in EB3 ROW or retrogressed countries until the entire EB2 category is current as EB2 will be compensated from EB3 quota. If EB2 is compensated with the visas from the new quota in October, then I expect EB2 including India and China to become current by the end of the year or early 2009(before March 2009) itself.
Once EB2 becomes current, I think EB3 India will get equal spill over as EB3 ROW as both the categories will be retrogressed and will move equally(as per PD) with the spillover from EB2 and EB1
yes. there is a possibility of some retrogression for EB2 India/China in the comming bulletins. But that is just for few months and it might be a mild retrogression as long as there is horizontal fall outs of spill over visas.

I have a question regarding use of EAD and living in Canada
My scenario
Currrently, I work on H1-B and am living in Canada (I cross US-Canada border everyday)
I am also a Canadian Citizen and used that to cross border everyday. So, far I never used the EAD
I recently got laid off, and planing on using my EAD for my next employment.
Questions
Once I start using the EAD, can I still live in Canada and work in US.
Is it necessary to live in US if one starts using EAD?
Did you file for I-485? If so, what is the address mentioned in the I-485 application? If it is US address, then you should be residing at that address.
I-485 application indicates that beneficiary is residing in the USA and applying for adjustment of status.

Latina: If you are correct then, since it is mentioned in so many posts that IV should achieve a non country quota, it should be clear for us (Rest of the World) category that this won't affect our waiting time; because if you are right that the Sernior voices were never advocating that the Worldwide Category will suffer any delays, it gets confusing after reading so many junior posters talking about not having a per country quota (just one line), that for newbies like me it is not crystal clear, of course I am all for the unused portion of the numbers for Worldwide category going to skilled immigrants from non worldwide rather than to anybody else.

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.

My case status online does not say anything about when it was received. It just says, "This case is now pending at the office to which it was transferred.". There is so much ambiguity at USCIS that it takes tons of reading / pulling hair just to understand what they mean. They have transferred my case three times. First of all there should be a reason for it (no reason makes it you wonder why ??) , then if they keep transferring it from one center to another, does that mean that the "received date" will be changing for ever and the case will never be processed ? I think USCIS should be accountable for that.
basbawa10, Well, why they are transfering your case back and forth can only be explained by them. Very fact that your case has been transfered around suggests that somebody has seen your case. Procedures described in link mentioned above, has a protocol on determining proper processing center, which has a complex formula based on state of residence, center approving I-140 etc. If your I-140 was approved by one center, and if in the meantime you moved to a state in different center jurisdiction, or USCIS changed jurisdictions, it might have created ambiguity on who should deal your case. Back and forth transfer suggests that centers are not agreeing on who should deal with your case. You may want to try an Infopass, which would let you know if your case is preadjudicated. If so, you just need to wait for PD to be current again.

Sorry to hear about your case. Immediately call your Congressman's/Senator's immigration wing. They will help you. If not, try to call attorneys like Rajiv Khanna or Sheila Murthy or Shutterman. They will charge you for the call, but you may get some valuable ideas.
Good luck. Hope it gets resolved soon.

I got an RFE on Nov 15th for copies of my degree certificates and my attorney sent them in a few after getting the RFE notice. I had an LUD on Nov 30th (Date when they received response to RFE) saying case processing has resumed. I also have another LUD on Dec 2nd. But the status still says case processing resumed. Does anyone know why there are 2 LUD's even though the case status is the same. Does it mean anything?
Relax, LUDS could be internal updates no one can tell you with absolute certainty what they mean. I saw this whole thread you are in panic mode and restless. Just relax man your case will be approved soon.Think of it this that they are working on your case not like others who have filed and heir cases are lying on the shelf.

These CIRcus operators will be responsible for the loss of "very little" moral left in this country. GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Ineligible countries
Those born in any territory that has sent more than 50,000 immigrants to the US in the previous five years are not eligible to receive a diversity visa. For the DV natives of the following nations were ineligible: Brazil, Canada, China (mainland-born), Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, India, Jamaica, Mexico, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Russia, South Korea, United Kingdom (except Northern Ireland) and its dependent territories, and Vietnam [1]. The entry period for DV-2009 was October 3, 2007 through December 2, 2007.
The ineligible countries may change from year to year, and are determined by counting those countries which sent 50,000 "immigrants" in the five years including that covered by the last published immigration statistics.

Do you know any example of I-485 got rejected after using AC21?
My lawyer says they haven't seen any case like this before. I want to make sure before I change jobs.
Thanks,
USCIS has known to send straight denials even though they are supposed to send NOID when an employer revokes 140. There are many examples where people sent in ac21 or not.
However; in just about every case it eventually got reopened. In the mean time there are many anxious moments while waiting for uscis to reopen the case (can't get ead renewed/ if outside the country wouldn't be allowed back on AP).
USCIS sometimes takes their time reopening the case (upto 7 or 8 months). If you don't have h-1b then there is no legal basis to stay here while waiting for the case to reopen. Can't work, etc. However; if you overstay by six months and they don't reopen the case then the 3 and 10 year bars will kick in and you can kick the greencard away.
Key thing is whether employer revokes 140. If they do then it causes anxious moments. USCIS has also started to revoke approved I-140's on their own when companies respond to rfe's on other candidates 140's (ie., ability to pay for all people together). If uscis revokes it on their own then ac21 does not protect you at all.

Ron is a very compassionate individual apart from being a very experienced attorney.
Have no hesitation in going to him.
I have known people who have engaged him and found him to be extremely competent.
His immigration forum has been a good source of credible information, given the limitations of discussing USCIS idiosyncrasies.
Let me add that I do not know him nor have I spoken to him. However, had I been in CA, he would have been my choice.
