Last sentence in this article: "However, given the anticipated difficulty in reaching an agreement on comprehensive reform, SKIL Act supporters likely must find an alternative legislative vehicle during the lame-duck session to pass limited relief for highly-educated workers."
What alternative legislative vehicle are they talking about?
Adding a few clauses to one of the appropriations bills maybe...
The only bills scheduled to get through would be the essential spending bills..

Feeling so sad about whole thing. May his soul rest in piece. My best wishes with his family.
This thread just puts things in perspective. Getting a GC and beyond is a good thing, but in the larger scheme of things, enjoying the present moment and enjoying what you got is far more important. You never know when it can end !

Please do not start new additional threads regarding the flowers campaign. It dilutes the focus and creates confusion, at least for me.:confused:

This method of collecting funds to get to a target and execute a pre-planned POA is great! I like this method, where we commit to funds and when we know, we have enough, we pull the trigger. But we need to have a plan and estimate the costs of that plan. This is a great way to go about, i think.

Hi Mehul,
I have heard in the past that Wife gets consideration in case of family problems like divorce.
Definetly there should be a way check with Attorney.

Lets not listen to negative people here and instead come up with a plan. Nothing will change unless we act upon it. I have seen these negative comments every time somebody come up with a plan for EB3-I. Unfortunately most of these negative comments are coming from EB2-I people.
Lets come up with action plan for EB3-I and we will send it upto Mr. President. I am sure they will listen to us someday. They are busy not deaf.
Thanks.

Guys until CIR passes soft country limits Remain right? ALso a lot of us who have applied on Eb3 DO have Masters in the US, it's just that our lawyers played it safe and applied in EB3.
Please correct me if i am wrong.
Say the SKIL bill goes thru quicker and much b4 the CIR. Then it is beneficial to all of us right? The Eb1s, Eb2s and Eb3's with a US advanced degrees are exempt from the cap and the eb1 overflow will still go to eb2 and eb2 overflow will go to eb3. That way everyone benefits to some degree.
Please please correct me if i am wrong

Spouse can stay in the country as far as her/his 485 has been applied before EB primary got a GC and after EB primary PD was current.
It WILL matter if while filing 485 EB & EB dependents have to use EB PD & FB PD respectively because then it could happen that EB primary got GC but EB dependent was never able to file 485.
In most cases it WON'T matter if while filing 485 EB & EB dependents can both use EB PD.
So if EB Dependents can use FB Quota but EB PD that would be really good for us. Off course clarification from attorney is always a good idea.
Our intention is to findout if CIS interpretation is correct. If spouse can stay in the country with EAD and AP and if Primary gets GC first. It won't matter much becos, that EAD will not have any strings attached on same or similar etc. So we should be OK.

Even If 11.25K (EB2)+11.25K (EB3) = 22.5 K (Total) contributes $25 Each Problems gets solved ... but the catch is ....
Even 11.25 K EB2 members are not contributing because they don't have to as their problem is solved
Even 11.25 K EB3 members are not contributing because they are not sure even with this contribution their problems gets solved.
Many people are saying that EB3 members are not contributing that's why you are lagging etc...
EB3 Members who contributed are feeling the pain because even after contribution they are not getting the results and EB2 members who didn't contributed are getting the results...
I think you hit the nail on the head.. EB2 folks don't contribute since their problem is over and EB3 folks don't contribute since they don't have any hope left.

Hello <TV station name>:
I am writing to you to give you a heads-up on a news story which is
about to happen on July 10th 2007. If you have been following the
issue of Immigration in the news lately, the United States Citizenship
and Immigration Services (USCIS) along with the Department of
State(DoS) announced an update to the July Visa bulletin essentially
eliminating any chances to apply for "Adjustment of Status" aka. the
last stage of the Green Card/Permanent Residency process. This
bulletin was was originally published during the mid month of June
inviting all legal immigrants to apply for Permanent Residency.
The Visa bulletin is a formal communication method to all Immigration
adjudication officers and personnel in National and International
consular offices of the United States of America, advising the
personnel of the availability of Permanent Resident visas which are
capped at 140,000 a year worldwide. The system has already forced many
delays and approx. 400,000 applications are back-logged.
This update was released on July 2nd, the first business day for the
month of July. Thousands of dollars were spent in legal fees and
medical examination fees by some 200,000 highly skilled legal
immigrants who chose to follow the rules and abide by the laws.
Several lawsuits have been filed against USCIS and DoS asking for
reimbursement of legal and medical expenses by AILF (American
Immigration Law Foundation) and AILA (American Immigrant Lawyers
Association).
The Legal immigrant community backed by ImmigrationVoice.org (a 15,000
strong group representing the Highly Skilled Legal Immigrants
Community) is resorting to a unique way of protesting this decision.
We have decided to take a leaf out of Mahatma Gandhi's book and send a
dozen flowers to the USCIS Director Emilio Gonzalez as a way of
protesting against this debacle brought upon by the high handedness of
the two departments.
Please find attached the Press release from ImmigrationVoice detailing
this protest.
As always, you folks at <TV Station> have always given unbiased coverage to
events, both local and nation wide. I hope you will cover this story
and bring to light this case of cheating by the USCIS and Dept. of
State.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me @ <your-number/contact info>
Best regards,
<Your-name>

I am not sure if I am correct,
Although no. of visas are awarded "EB category + country" wise, but spillover is not awarded in same fashion.
.e.g. 3000 visa comes to EB2 I & 3000 visa comes to EB3 I.
But spillover comes from EB1 to EB2 irrespective of country. And reason why EB2 I is far ahead is because of spillover gain before it reaches to EB3.
Even if some EB2 I guys are not happy with EB3 person porting to EB2, shouldn't they calm down as whoever is porting taking benefit from spillover for EB2 world and not from spillover EB2 I.
My assumption is spillover comes to "EB2" and not "EB2 + country" wise, if that is not correct then my point is nullified.

Been in the US since 1998, have an EB-2 PD of 2001, have played by the rules all along. Still no GC... And, the dates are going back to 2000 from the new year.. I've lost hopes...
I'm pretty close to getting clinical depression because of this game played by USCIS, Labor Dept, FBI and my own bad luck.
SKILL bill, OMNIBUS, etc. comes and goes. IV does seem to be doing things to lobby for the community, but let's face one reality. Like a news article said, no one in congress or senate wants to touch immigration even with a long pole until 2009.
The US has been very good to me (other than the GC part), more than my home country (India) which is why I'm still here.
Have invested too much of time in this country to just pack up and go. Just curious if any of you feel this way? How do you handle such depressing feelings?
