Pappu,
This post does clarify visa recapture issues, but what about concurrent 140/485 filing ? Also, if our fate is still so tied up with 12+ millions illegals, doesn't that mean that we failed to make our case, even with so much media coverage, lobbying and our personal efforts to call the law makers. Could another explanation be that lawmakers have all but refised to treat us with dignity we deserved as an educated, law abiding, tax paying citizens contributing to the society. I believe that we didn't fail and we tried what we could but still lawmakers refuse to act on our casue, may be they are implying something without explicitly saying it ?
Here is an update on Visa recapture from Aman:
"I know some people ask for achievements of Immigration Voice and comment, sometimes ridicule, that Immigration Voice has not been able to get even one provision in last one year. There are many other organizations working on behalf of various groups. If no immigration provision has passed in more than last one year, does it mean that all those organizations are also ineffective? We all know that this is a world of instant gratification but please understand that there are groups who go to DC to get their issues addressed and they wait for 2, 3 -5 years before anybody would start listening to their issues. You see, just to explain using an analogy, Microsoft is working to get H-1b numbers increased long before Immigration Voice started. If Microsoft has not been able to get Congress to increase H-1B numbers, does it mean that Microsoft is no longer an effective corporation? Likewise, Immigration Voice has made significant progress but due to the political climate and statistical discussion about the undocumented, which of�course is different but an important issue, our provisions are clubbed in the comprehensive bill. If it would have been any other year when Congress was not considering the issue of undocumented or comprehensive immigration reform, advocacy effort of Immigration Voice would have definitely translated all our provisions into law six months back.
If you want us to get Visa recapture as interim fix, allow me to share with you that as it stands today, it will not happen outside of Comprehensive bill. Infact as it stands right now, even H-1B increase will also not happen outside of comprehensive bill. Reason? Most of the groups and companies have stopped pushing for temporary relief because any kind of temporary relief or interim relief chips away support from CIR and the offices of Senate and House Leadership along with other proponents of CIR have made it clear that any immigration relief has to be a part of CIR and not outside of it. Other companies/coalitions have stopped pushing for temporary H-1B increase as they do not want to be in the bad books of committee chairmen and the leadership offices by trying to sneak temporary relief that divides the supporters of CIR. Leadership wants support for CIR and want all sides to wait for CIR. And not doing so and trying to get interim relief before CIR would put them in bad books of Senate and House leadership, which no one wants coz if CIR fails, then after CIR, these offices will not co-operate with any group that tried to take away support from CIR. So it would be counter-productive politically to do things that take away good stuff from CIR. Also, if you think that any effort in the final week could help in anyway, then let me to share with you that most provisions and their language are decided much in advance and last minute efforts almost never yield any result on the Hill."

Include Sep approvals as well, they can’t use all the visas in the month of Aug it self, it never happened before (in fact they wasted thousands of visas by the end of the fiscal each year in the past). This is the first time they have determined (?) to use all the visas, don’t expect 100% success in the first attempt it self. The system has not been fine tuned yet to that level of success.
For Sep, the EB2 dates will remain same or might even move further few months. Oct bulletin will be the interesting one. If there are very little approvals during Aug & Sep, it will move back considerably. If there are so many approvals in the tune of 15-20k, then EB2 PD will go back slightly (say Jan 06) but will move forward at healthy rate. Come last quarter of 2008-09, there will be quantum leap again.
only the month of AUg approvals is going to validate or invalidate...but makes sense so far. ;-)

I am not sure about the statement "There is no corporate support for EB reform.....". Check this link http://www.competeamerica.org/. They seem to have the same agenda as ours (i.e., IV's). Is IV aware (or in collaboration) with them?
competeamerica is just doing lip service to the EB. Their real agenda is more
H1B. When time comes to compromise they will gladly sacrifice EB reform
for more H1B visa (mark my works!!!!!)

With the porting thing happening crazily, It looks like your gc will be a dream for ever. Better you take ADMIN position in IV. Better you turn as approver.

A little hesitant initially but it all went quite well. She took the message, name and the location I was calling from. Took less than a minute and the lady was super nice.
GO IV GO!
I have been a contributor for quite some time and this was the only thing which was missing (HESITANCY TO CALL) and I am glad I am over that too. There is no reason not to make the call friends. GO FOR IT. It really feels awesome after the call.

Called the congressman's office and spoke a nice lady. She took down the bill numbers, my name and zipcode and told me that she will pass the message along. She was very friendly and it took me less than a minute to call.
Those who have not called yet, please do.

Hello,
I have been going through this discussion. I am in a similar situation where I got a Welcome Notice saying my I-485 was approved and I should be receiving my card in 3 weeks when my PD is not current and in fact, the PD is a couple of years behind! It has been 6 months since I got the notice and no GC is in sight. After calling the customer service in March, they told me that they did not have my biometrics in their system and so I had to go for a biometrics appointment early April. It is almost 3 months since then and I still have no GC card. I know that there is a delay in card production, but at the same time, I am wondering if the I-485 approval was by mistake and that is causing the real problem. I am in talks with a lawyer who suggests it is better to correct the USCIS mistake right now rather than getting into complications in the long run. I am frustrated that I have to pay for an attorney for a mistake USCIS did and concerned what will happen in future when I proceed with their advice.
Could one of you who faced this situation descibe how you handled the situation or how you would handle this situation? In my case, there is no other I-485 or anything filed before and I have never been out of status or had any issue ever.
Thank you.

sagar_nyc, agreed. EB3 is a joke and even worst I have become a joker in front of all my friends who applied in EB2 cheating the system. Funny is, experience wise, I am well ahead of all those making fun of me but...:-(
too bad, eb3 does not even have a place to vent these days as IV forums and its thread only has discussions from EB2 members.
anyway, best of luck to everybody. the world is not fair, I am willing to fight my part to make it fair and just for all.
I hear you. Yours may become current at the beginning of next FY year as they project Feb 02 for sept 2010. Wish you luck!

Bharatpremi,
When do you think EB3-India will move to 2005? Any guess?
First Bullshit Period: 2003 - Realization that EB3-I will be dead slow - Sub
Labor black Market flourished mainly in NY, CA and TX.
We saw a new animal "Virtual Office". Lot of ethically and
morally(Now even legally) illegitimate transfers occured
from EB3 to earl PD based EB2.
Second Bullshit Period: 2005-JAN to APRIL is a key "Bullshit period" - As in
May PERM was gonna to be released, people
fanatically started preparations to switch over to EB2
using PERM. So maximum fence hopping done in this
period and continued till 2006 mid.
Fact: In june 2007 EB3-I was already reached to June 2003 as current PD.
So logically speaking once dates for EB3-I reaches to 2005 start mark then virtually it should not take long to reach to 2006 mid mark as EB3 numbers considerably reduced and with same amount EB2-I considerably increased so EB2- I will stuck for a very long long time once it reaches to 2005 start mark and Eb3-I will be moved with jet speed. Now we may have some EB3-I with PD before June 2003, it will surely be a stock from NC stuck - That is the only entity which you can not tag a number and hence the base of inaccurate prediction.So far so good. Considering all this I believe Eb3-I at least with PD 2004-mid should become current by the end of 2008 december.Last quarter of this year will be THE quarter for EB3-I
Other thing is unpredictable and abrupt decisions by USCIS, just like what it did during this April - So all in all, I think it (EB3-I) should reach to 2005 mark by 2009 mid.

One change I noticed.
Now people can continue in the old system if the I-140 was approved or pending before the first day of the fiscal year subsequent to the the bill being enacted. So if the bill is passed right away, you need to have filed your I-140 before Oct 1 2007.

1. What happens when changing employers when I-140 and I-485 pending for less than 180 days?
The key criteria here is an approved I-140 + I-485 pending for more than 180 days. My understanding is that if you do not satisfy both clauses, you will have to re-start the process again when you change employers

What we get
1. We get number of EB2,EB3 Primary and EB2,EB3 Dependent applications.
2. From the wordings, I won't be suprized if they give a summarized number from 2001.
But if someone else requested this info broken into PD buckets by month and Year, then I think we need to use that. The letter I sent had that wording, but I never received any response yet.
Here is what we don't get
1. Break up by country - Helps folks in EB3 as ROW is not current
2. Some might have not applied for AOS for various reason like their I140 is still pending, Some companies mandate that. - This could be a small percentage
3. Break-up by PD month& year
More insight is welcome.. Pre-adjudicated cases are not approved cases. So they can't eliminate them..

Well depends on the job I want to get done. New Internatinal graduates come with less salary, more enthusiam, are hardworking and would go out of their way to get some work done.
In addition to that if I have a constant supply of H1Bs why would I want to spend more money on high salary & more perks if I can train newbies in 6 months.
Good luck running your company! Just imagine this, you spend 6 months training an international grad, spend $5000 - $7000 per H1B and after 1 - 2 yrs, you will have to start all over again. After a couple of months, the "new hire" will just be angry at you (just look at all the people on this forum who curse bodyshoppers - and just to clarify - I am not implying that the company you start will be a bodyshopping firm) and he will quit your company and join someone else. And you will have to start the process all over again. The guy who you hired on H1B will be now join someone else and depending on your business, you will be left high and dry.
I know this because the very first job I joined, the philosophy at the company was to hire fresh grads (the "get them cheap" works for American Grads too). My boss used to tell me "we can get two for the price of one". The year I got hired, the company recruited 15 new grads (a new "Product Development" dept. was being started) - and I was the only H1B. After 14 months, when the business started picking up, the company did not even bother to raise our pay or even recogonize us. Guess what happened? Over a period of 2 months, 12 of us quit for better jobs. Guess who now had to look for 12 people and at the sametime deliver the product to the clients on time?
And the company was not even a "desi" company. During my time there, we used to discuss the book "Good to Great" and how we could make the company a Great Company. The management used to talk about getting the "right people on the bus". I guess finally the "right people" found out that the bus was not going their way and got off it.
In addition to that if I have a constant supply of H1Bs why would I want to spend more money on high salary & more perks if I can train newbies in 6 months.
Good luck running your company! Just imagine this, you spend 6 months training an international grad, spend $5000 - $7000 per H1B and after 1 - 2 yrs, you will have to start all over again.

hey
I didnt mean to offend you... i really appreciate the awareness (and hope) that you have brought to this issue.
I apologize if my selection of words have hurt you or anybody else in this forum.
No offense taken. It just gets a bit frustrating when it feels like I am taking on all of this by myself. In fact, there have been a lot of frustrations in this process, but I won't go into them here, because most are personal and not relevant to the discussion. I haven't heard from the lawyers in two weeks, so I should probably touch base with them to see what is going on.

My 'Employer #2' H1B I-94 and 'Employer X' H1B I-94 numbers matches with I-94 number that I got at 'POE'.
Receipt Data is July-2006 for 'Employer X' H1B.
......
Could you please provide following info
1. I-797 dates for Employer 2 and X
2. Last Date of entry in USA
3. Date when I-485 was filed
I-94 number being same does not mean much. One can have same I-94 number for COS from H1 to F1. On the other hand, one can have different I-94 with H-1B transfer. Typically, H-1B transfer means new H-1B petition for the beneficiary who is/was in H-1B status and is not subject to H-1 cap.
If beneficiary's initial H-1B was counted against cap in last 6 years, then subsequent H-1B petitions are not subject to cap and usually referred as H-1B transfers.
