> On the same note guys..Nothing changes after GC.
Actually, it does. If you get a GC, you have the option to get citizenship in 5 yrs. If
you get citizenship, you can get Social security.....irrespective of whether you live in
US or in Timbaktu. So IMO, the biggest advantage of GC is getting back the money
you've been paying as part of Social security taxes.
And for those of you who think Social Security will run bankrupt....that will never happen,
or the US president will lose his job. The Govt will always fund SS even if it means
increasing a ballooning deficit.
Not only do you get SS but you also have to pay taxes to US irrespective of where you live for the rest of your life. So on a net it is still arguable depending on your long term residency plan. And my friend, Social Security is going away in the next 10 years. You think the USA can maintain this kind of a deficit for ever with people not willing to see an increase in taxes.

This morning I spoke to one of the Second level officer to get the SR done as I hit 90 days today, but he rejected saying they can not create as I am still with in the April 16th processing timelines. He wanted me to wait till I get my Eapedited request answered.
He is saying interim EAD can requested only if the posted processing timelines exceed 30days to our Filed date. Ridiculous. I told him, how does it matter what processing timeline TSC posts!, as per the memo if I have been waiting for more than 90days am allowed to request an Interim EAD.. But he is not ready to listen.. He started saying those processing timelines are created based on the volume, so I am not allowed it seems.. BS... I wish I had told him to increase the GC quota as there is more volume.. brainless ppl.
They dont even understand what it means to loose the jobs coz of processing delays from USCIS. All the 6 years (H1 B) perid they wanted us to have jobs without any breaks and they dont care now!!

Welcome to our 8000th member "vatsa" ...Friends we are only 20% away from target. At least if you cannot make contribution in terms of $$$'s please at least add members and take it to the finish line....
Another suggestion is to use Orkut.... use your orkut network, join communities on Orkut which you may feel can have potential members and send a message to the whole community.
Thanks Anurakt

It's extremely difficult, if not impossible to maintain PR status in both US and Canada due to the residency requirements. Once you get your US GC the best thing to do is to abandon your Canadian PR if you intend to live in the US and make your home here. Frankly I don't see any benefit of mainatining your Canadaian PR. If you try to do that it might even jeopardize your GC. Google and you will find lots of advice on this issue. I plan to live and work here in the US.
Congrats Lasantha :)
One question: in one thread you mentioned you've also got canadian PR. I did apply for canadian immigration, got approval but have to land before 24th april. My 485 was filed in july 2007, EAD, AP aprpoved and PD for october 2005 got current in the May bulletin. I am thinking of abandoning the CA PR as even if I get that, I will have to abandon it when I will get for US PR. So the question is, what will the CA PR benefit when you already have GC?

People like me are sitting on the fence. I wouldn't regret even if I don't get a GC at all...Sometimes, I feel that I am just waiting for any chance to go back to India... It is just the consideration of continuity in life for the family that really is driving me every day... It doesn't mean I will feel bad if I get the GC. The wait is simply not worth it. been living in multiple countries for the past 13 years... US is one another country for me.... That is just my case. I visit the forum and post in here because I can just monitor the situation... It is like monitoring my stocks, news on Libya,World cup, etc. Don't get me wrong guys... I wanted to share my facts.

It looks like most people want to believe just what is good for them. I have yet to see the document that says "It is illegal to issue interim visa bulletins or stop accepting applications mid month".
Don't kill the messenger.
Be concerned and be VERY CONCERNED. Being in denial will not help. Work with the assumption that the dates might go back any time. If your conditions does not permit you to file in the first week there is not much you can do. Tough luck if the dates go back. But if there are things you can do , please do...
I will give you an example, It is very difficult to get medical appointments where I live and the first opportunity was July last week. I traveled 120 miles (not much) and got mine done last week, where as a friend of mine did not want travel and took the local appointment for Jul 3rd week assuming he can file by Jul31. With the change in dynamics he has to revise the plans and may not get the appointment 120 miles away.
I mean to say, work with the goal to apply ASAP.

Anyone received payment processing errors in the last couple of days on the E-File website? For some reason, while trying to complete payment for my AP e-file, when I try to use the credit card option, I keep getting an error that the e-filing payment processing server is unable to process payments at this time. I have been trying every hour for the last 2 days...and the stupid USCIS Customer Service number has no options to report this error...
I would send an email or snail mail to the Service center - detailing the problem you encountered with both the payment and with the customer service number. It is always better to have something in a written format to back up your claims.
Hope they fix it! I have to get ready to apply for mine in a month......

Depending on how my training goes, I should know in 3 months if I am capable of doing the half marathon in 2009. When does the registration end?
One of my close friends is considering running the DC 10 miler with me. She never ran or walked a race before. Hopefully she will decide to atleast walk before the end of the day. That will be good for both of us
I partnered with my aunt to walk the SF 5K as well. now I really need to partner with someone who can run the Houston 1/2 marathon with me.

I have received messages from people who have been here around 10 years without a GC. I wonder how common this is. What do you think about proposing a "fast track" for people who have been here legally for more than a certain amount of time?
