Does the fact that USCIS has returned some visa numbers mean we will see some category current again? For example, EB-1?

My apologies for hijacking the thread, but since many who have experience with the renewal process are around here, i am posting my question.
Does anyone know how many photos to accompany the passport application. The checklist on the application says 2 while the SFO consul website says 6.
Has anyone applied from SFO ?

Here is what my attorney said.
"Completely false rumor. Legally impossible for retrogression to occur prior to Aug. 1. You'll be getting a Breaking News from us on it today or tomorrow."
Wish the statement from your attorney is true and we all will be able to file 485 through the month of July with no issue. I'm luckly to get the paper work done and ship the package to Attorney and waiting on their action, But have few friends who could get Medical Appointment only around second/third week of July. Also this EW Other Worker Quota that became unavailable and also rejection of these applications has made us worry a lot, although it is a diffferent category we are at fear that this could happen to us. Reading the VB again, the reduction in the EW annual limit to 5,000 began in Fiscal Year 2002... So this category has only 5000 Visas and I'm not surprised this bacame unavailable and think this category is far more crowded than others... We should be fine atleast in July... May be too optimistic... but nothing wrong in hoping for the best and wish all the members can file asap.

As another member said, please display the list of all members who paid.
Also, to all the registered members in IV, why dont we send an email as a gentle reminder?
The email can also include the list of members who donated/pledged to attend the event. That might motivate others to contribute atleast financially?

Can't pick stocks in this Volatile market, but one thing is certain the markets will be volaile for some time now. So I suggest be long Vega. Pick a stock where the implied vol is higher than historical vol (you will find plenty. Eg C) and put on an option straddle. Sure to make money.
This is not a day trading strategy but a derivatives trade.
I can post a few breakout runners in the AM but would like IV core's consent to do so. I can post runners in the chat so its faster and easier
Once I get a go ahead I will post some
I strongly suggest to WATCH WATCH WATCH the trades and not jump without knowledge of the trades.
Again make a portfolio on google /yahoo or any other portal and watch the plays . Keep an eye on the volume / News of the trades.
Just a side note :
SAY - Satyam went into the dumps from 12 to .01 IN 2 WEEKS . NYSE dint trade it for 3 days . Today it opened again at 1.10 ---hit bottom of 0.78 and high of 1.77 .
So a PDT watches for these breakout . If any one entered this stock at AROUND 1.00 earned anywhere from 50-75% on it.
Why did it rise ?? Market plays on humna sentiments ...early morning news broke out that there "MAYBE" a govt bailout. sending SAY skyrocketing.
Traditional investors may differ from my opinion....but then This is not for traditional investors sorry!!!!
If you ask me ....I suggest just use your disposable income ONLY STRICTLY to play to learn . Start with as low as maybe even 500 bucks .
Initially just play on the portfolio without money to see how you fare. As you learn you will be more confident

Those of you that are in the fence on whether to support IV or not, see below, our adversaries are not sitting on the fence, they are mobilized and will be in DC the same week as us advocating for the exact opposite of what we want. Please consider this and support IV.
Never ceases to amaze me how well funded and organized our adversaries are. More the reason to make the sacrifice and be there representing EB-immigrants!
Is any sort of relief worth $100 to you? It sure is to me.

50 Talk Radio Hosts to Gather in Washington for National "Town Hall" on Immigration
WASHINGTON, March 23, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) announces April 6 and 7 as the dates for Hold Their Feet to the Fire 2011. Fifty talk radio hosts from all across the United States, led by Roger Hedgecock of Radio America Networks, are scheduled to participate in Hold Their Feet to the Fire 2011, making it the largest immigration "town hall" of the airwaves to date. This year's event marks the fifth time FAIR has organized and hosted a live radio row devoted to the discussion of immigration policy.
The fifty broadcasters will spend two days interviewing members of Congress, immigration reform experts, and law enforcement personnel. � In addition to the broadcast component, dozens of activists from across the country will be in Washington to meet their elected representatives to urge them to enact immigration reforms that protect and serve the interests of the American people.
Among the key issues to be discussed by participants at Hold Their Feet to the Fire 2011 are:
The need to enact mandatory use of E-Verify by all U.S. employers to protect American workers from losing jobs to illegal aliens.
The refusal of the Obama administration to effectively enforce existing immigration laws.
The mounting costs of illegal immigration at the federal and local level.
Public opposition to all amnesty or legalization proposals for illegal aliens.
The need to reduce overall levels of immigration to the United States.

If someone is responsible for the current state of affairs in the H1B area , It is Indian firms . The H1B1 was started in 'GOOD FAITH ' by United States to help people from "all over the world" to come in and work in the US , but large Indian IT houses have overexploited these loopholes so much that we are currently in this sorry state of affairs . In their greed for higher and higher profits(every Indian firm hits 30% profits every quarter ) they have spoiled a perfectly working program a few years ago to such a state that now getting an H1B has got less nothing to do with talent but has become like buying a supperlotto ticket .Below is a very good article from the "Economic Policy Institute " that highlights the fact that 2 well known Indian firms have single handedly lapped up 65% of H1B visas last year and have applied for just 69 green cards . Thats a GC application rate of 0.0004%. i Cannot help agree with the facts in this article. I totally agree that firms like these which abuse the system ought to be severely punished and blacklisted, so that geniunine US companies can get their required workers , when they need them . The link is as below.
http://www.sharedprosperity.org/bp187.html
You are saying what Ron Hira and IEEE-USA is saying.
How can an Indian company apply for H1B? It must be a company registered in USA.
There is a group of loosers who are scaret to compete with Dynamic young
Engineers coming to USA and giving them a tough competetion...
Ron Hira is spokes man for such people.
Green Card is for permanent position and H1B is a temporary VISA.
What is the problem if company thinks a position is temporary and they dont need
to file for green card?
It is incorrect to say that 'INDIAN' companies are spoiling the H1B system.
It is a myth spread by RON HIRA and his followers.

hellomms Could you gather all such people who are facing this issue and want to join the effort to fix it, at a single place on an IV thread. Once we have a sizable number of people to take initiative this effort can be successful. It is difficult to divert attention and resources for a single person. Each immigration issue that our community faces is important to the person suffering from it. IV is a place where people can get together and do something about fixing it.

It was fun to meet so many people, its amazing, you read threads, you see IV handles and you try to be imaginative on who that person would be, but you just can't put a face behind the IV handle. Then you get to meet them in person and you say my name is this and my name is that and then we look surprised, who.. and then the question comes, whats your IV handle. Then we talk as we have known each other for years. We all fight for the same cause, we all have compelling stories very personal, very painful, the never ending wait for getting a green card. Some of them are in with us even though they have crossed the hurdle of getting a green card, because they believe in our cause, they don't want anyone to go through the pain all of us are going through. Hats off to all.. the train has left the station now, we have one voice, IMMIGRATION VOICE!!!!

Definitely agree with herd mentality and haste, but can't blame them also. What if the dates go back again next month. So its a catch-22.
good luck to everyone.
What i am trying to say here is firstly reaching congressman should not be on the first day itself which some of the folks are doing, atleast wait for a a couple of weeks. and then regarding opening SR i would say atleast wait for around a week or 10 days at the minimum if you are scared of dates moving back. And yes i am not pointing fingers at any individual so don't take it personally "gc_on_demand"

You will be Yamdooth or the you will be the God of Savoir (according to Hindu religion.:D :D
If we have to get it done it has to be this year, else it will be a very long wait and we all don't have any more patience.
It is a crucial time for us to be each other's saviour Gods by making this organization strong. We have to do it ourselves since this problem affects each one us.
We get enough hatemails from antiimmigrants and we are not scared of them!. Today I came across a mail from an IV member talking nonsense about us. We can be our worst enemies and Lord of Death for the community if we don't stay united in times of need.
We can all be Godsent saviours for each other if we all can pull this effort off. Lets continue to strengthen IV.

USCIS passed a rule that it will start giving 2 years EAD. Inspite of that, several people last year got 1 year EADs or worse, they would get EAD starts dates 2 to 3 months before the expiry of the first EAD just because they applied early..... basically they got a EAD for only 9 months!
How is the situation now?
Recent EAD receivers, kindly answer the following 2 questions.
1) Have you been getting EADs with 2 years validity without any hassle?
2) Is the new EAD start date coinciding with the expiry date of the last EAD?
Thanks,

I agree with Randy. I think Ron Gotcher mentioned something very similar. what I am not sure about is:
Can one apply for CP after I-485 been pending with USCIS?? is that possible?? does than mean that EAD and AP will be automatically not valid to be used?? do we have to be current in the VB to apply for CP??
Thanks
There is an advantage to filing through CP when USCIS is slow to process applications. According to statistics this has been the case for last 10 years with USCIS.
CP approvals are pretty fast and when you apply they do not wait till the dates to become current, NVC process the application to the point where the only thing it needs is a visa number.
For example April 1st when an applicants PD is current NVC will request a visa number for the applicant and any derivative applicants around the 10th of April (this is stadard practice). Then typically in the next 60 days (May or June in this case) schedule the interview. You get the visa after successful interview.
If you filed AOS, USCIS is supposed to pull your case and start working on it when PD become current. From what we hear they do not do this properly, they do not follow establised guildlines (FIFO). CP has a distinct advantage in this regard. Only thing is you do not get to have EAD/AP.

I think TSC might wait until August 1st. Because if they send before August 1st they might end up giving 2 year EAD. So it might be trick. But i don't care whether they issue 1 year or 2 year EAD. As long as they issue EAD before it expires i am okay. Let's see tomorrow.
