Ron Gotcher said on his reply to some readers questions:
The mystery is solved. I have corresponded with Charlie Oppenheim in the Visa Office. He confirmed that the 27% limit does apply. He explained that during this fiscal year, the CIS consumed an unusually large number of Indian EB2 visas, thus making the category unavailable despite a retrogression in the cuoff date which was intended to hold number use within the limit.
He said that based on his discussions with the CIS, he was informed that the CIS did not feel that the current amount of pending Indian first preference demand would be insufficient to use all available numbers under the limit. Therefore, he allowed some of those numbers to fall down into Indian second preference.
So, the Indian second preference numbers used to establish a cutoff date for April are coming from left over Indian first preference, not worldwide numbers.

That was informative.
The wild cards are still the LC substitutions and EB2 to EB3 conversions. Even if a lot of people had to go back to India, is there any estimate on how many of these LC approvals were later sold by the bodyshoppers? Depending on the extent of LC substitution frauds (from what I hear it was rampant) all the calculations and estimates could get completely thrown off. I agree that we should wait for another 2-3 months for the dust to settle. Even the USCIS/DOS should have a good idea of how many cases there are and that will help them control the flow better and that should reflect in the visa bulletins.
Perfect linear logic. Infact if you think linearly this should have been the case.But, in my opinion you have missed 2 important events. First, when BECs were created, before moving cases to BECs, INS somehow took a stand of rapid labor approval for those who already cleared "State" process and were waiting in Regional. Many of cases were approved during those 3 to 4 months and most of them were of EB2 categories. Those who were stuck in "State" , most were transferred to BECs directly. Second thing happened was many EB2 people also changed jobs as economy started to improve from 2005 and many left for India. Now one can argue, that happened with EB3 as well. I tell you one thing. My file was Eb3 NON-RIR...Stuck in PBEC. I decided to convert into RIR. My final conversion package sent to PBEC, around second week of January 2007. At that moment there were almost 350000 cased were of NON-RIR and 70000 cases were of RIR. EB2 load was of around 30 % only of these total cases. See here the difference lies in volume. EB3 load is considerably high. One more thing to remember is Most of those EB2 filings were of 2002 or pre 2002. In year 2003, generally most filing were done in EB3 NON-RIR only as RIR denial ratio was high and that with particular EB2 category. And adding all this makes my assumption base that 80% of pre 2004 EB2 lot is already out of this black hole. Let's watch next bulletins. It will be clear within 2 to 3 months how USCIS is taking turns.

Don’t blame non-contributing members too much. They are also frustrated with the retrogression and wish for a relief. $20/mon is not a big deal for most high skilled professionals. But what if someone didn’t get the message? What if someone doesn’t have a paypal account? There should be some other ways for people to pledge the money and make sure it will be used wisely. I guess the right strategy is how to reach more people with the correct information. Honestly speaking, I don’t know how many of 8400 really got this message.
If there are 200 online users and IV already got 128 contributing members, the percentage looks pretty amazing to me. There will be more, of course, when they get to know this and come to the website, read and understand that they have a chance and also a responsibility to help themselves by doing this.

Browing through the text it seems that SA180 has immigration provisions. Some amendments are agreed to, some are withdrawn and the rest are in "submitted" state. SA180 is in submitted state. Does it mean voted down?

I had called them last week and was told the ususal spiel about my processing time not being current. But the lady also slipped with some piece of info that I did not have before: The processing dates are updated every 2 weeks....we do not see that online. While I am not sure that is true, I still figured hey let's call again and see. So yesterday the guy on the phone told me that I am outside their processing times and that he will put in a service request to make sure they will take care of my application....and my RD is July 2nd.....so their might be some truth about them internally updating processing times.....maybe

My many friends from EB3 -Jan to Jun 2003 PD are still in process. I have met 2 EB2-May 2003PD guys already having GC. Very small sample but thought to mention it.
BharatPremi Please tell me I am wrong! i collected some data... and just by looking at it... it seems like EB3 will move very very slowly not as per your prediction! I m not a stats guru perhaps you or anyone who is a stats guru can shed some light here!
What is your EB3-India PD (I-485 either pending, or not yet filed)
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6203
Total Applicants (that voted) = 206
_______________
% distribution
_______________
43.21% 2001/2002/2003
25.25% 2004
16.51% 2005
13.59% 2006
1.46% 2007
_______________
Total Visa available / country = 140000/7% = 9800 in a year
Keep aside 10% for other categories, so 90% available for EB2 and EB3
9800 - 980 = 8820 total available for India EB2/EB3
50-50 between eb2 eb3 (assumption - probably a bad assumption)
4410/year available for EB3?
(This is where it really gets tricky!)
ASSUMPTION -
Approximate Indian EB3 Applications
Total Indian applicants / 2 (50-50 between eb2 and eb3)
Total 200k (low estimate) so EB3 100k approx
+ 100k Dependants = 200k Total EB3
Year 2001/2002/2003 = 43.21% = 46286
Number of years to clear off Backlog (2003 and prior) = 46286/4410 = 10 1/2 years
Up until 1/5/2007 PD was stable at around 5/8/2001
I think EB3 movement will be very slow based on above calculations
EDIT: Even if Unused Visas get funneled down to EB3 India > cut the time in 1/2 still looks like 4-5 years to clear EB3 < 2003
Does this sound right?

Thanks - I guess that's good advice.
Btw, do I need to send the original passport with the application?
Yes, you will need to send the original passport along with the filled in application...Since the passport is expired for over an year, check this out:
Quote:
When should you apply for the new passport?
i) Apply for reissue of Passport if the final (F) validity is less than one year. For example, if your passport is expiring on 31st Dec. 2008, you can apply for a new passport from 1st Jan. 2008 onwards.
ii) The Passport should be renewed within one year of its expiry. If for any reason you have delayed applying for a new passport beyond one year after expiry of your passport, an affidavit stating the reason for delay sworn before a Notary or a Consular Officer should be submitted along with the application.

Folks, sorry I have not been in much action, with other stuff taking priority, but I would definitely like to know what it takes to do this? I have completely lost fitness due to bad lifestyle, long commutes to work, working spouse, small baby, and other tensions and I like this idea a lot.
Nolaindian - can you briefly explain how this marathon works? Does every city have a marathon to which we register, is it a community? Who sponsers? Do we do it as IV? Do we all form a group. Are the rules set by us? Do we pledge????
I can definitely start off with a short one - until I pick up on fitness :) Tri state members are more than welcome to join me :)
Hi Chanduv23,
I really appreciate your support and interest in Team IV.
The basic concept of Team IV is to raise either $300 or $500 in 1 years time starting when you join Team IV and the year ends on January 18, 2009.
There are two Memberships Types to join Team IV; Individual and Family Membership: The Individual Membership costs $50/yr and Family is $75/yr.
Team IV Members will get a T Shirt, Welcome Package with more details and fundraising tips. The premise of the fundraising is that your friends and relatives will support your goal to walk/run one of the three Team IV events in the year and thus will make donations to Immigration Voice (by check) to help you reach your goal of either $300 or $500.
The Three Team IV events we have chosen are:
1. San Francisco Golden Gate Park 5K on August 17, 2008. A 5K is 3.12 miles and can be walked in 45 mins.
2. The Washington DC Army 10 Miler on October 5 2008
3. The Houston Marathon (26.2 miles), or Half Marathon (13.1 miles) or 5K on Jan 18, 2009.
You can do all events, as Santb1975 and myself will, but you are required to do only 1 of these 3. If you have a family membership, we encourage all family members to participate, however, we require only 1 to complete at least 1 event.
If you absolutely cannot make it to one of the above events, you can still join Team IV and participate at local events in your hometown. I can assist you with finding such events. We will try to include your local event in our schedule the following year.
What would really benefit IV is to show our strenght by numbers; meaning if we have several IV members in IV T Shirts walking/running as a group, we are going to get noticed even more, and this is how we can good press for IV.
The goal is to raise money to support IV's long term lobbying efforts and to support a not for profit org that fights childhood obesity in the US. This is in keeping with our fitness goal, and it is a quality of life issue, not only for IV, or for Team IV members, but for the country we have chosen to make our homes in.
Our goal is to have 150 Members and raise at least $45,000!
I hope you can join us. If you have any questions/concerns, please PM me and we can connect by phone to discuss.
Thanks,
NolaIndian

add to that aman's lost bags and cell phone and constant attempts to call akhil to retrieve his wallet...poor akhil arrived back huffing and puffing and in mortal panic...later we discovered we had his home phone number and had been leaving messages on it for 2 days...and wondering why in the world he would not pick his phone up!
It was a unique situation.........
me and my wife were coming back from a lawmakers meeting and found that Aman was waiting for his wallet as the luggage was in my car...........
while walking fast she scratched her ankle badly and was not able to walk properly............ so i made her sit at an intersection and ran towards the hotel............ then had to rush back to get her, as i had asked to her wait at an intersection....
was fun and by the time i reached back i was like all huffed/puffed up and she was laughing at me...........

Good to see an EB3 thread with so many people in EB2 getting Greencards these days.
It is a matter of time EB2 I is current and nobody from EB2 will care for EB3. It is comforting that many IV core is EB3 and some good will happen to EB3. A friend of mine with EB3 I PD in 2008 has literally lost all hope of getting greencard and that is very sad. It is painful to see EB2 people not helping EB3 people. Why?

Snathan, Thanks for all your help. Its been 9 months that my application is in PERM process and nothing happened except an AUDIT. I want to get out of this mess. I want to do anything that i can do to get out of this mess soon.
Samantha,
Attorney can contact the DOL after 4 months of the audit reply. My reply was on March 11th. My attorney asked me to wait 2 more months for her to contact DOL.
If it is 4 months after the audit reply, ask your attorney to contact the DOL.

Gonna be a long long long wait for people with PDs of 2007 (EB3) who got their labor certified after July.
Yep. It would be good for EB3/2 - India-PD 2007 filer considering canadian immigration simultaneously...ofcourse do not rush now for filing Canadian PR - As Canada generally gives you PR witin 2 years and by that time 2007 filers may not have passed FBI check for their 485 here..If the way things are going I see at least 5 years wait for 2007 (India)filers.

Instead of "as soon as you can", you could use �at your earliest convenience�.
I will make that change in the letters I send out to others, thanks!

Wow, I am in exactly same boat, So , basically FP results are blocking EAD card production!!... next renewal, It will paper based EAD.!!
-N
EAD e-filed: May 27th
Receipt notices received: 1st week of June
FP done: June 19th
Card production ordered LUD: June 28th
Other soft LUDs: July 25th, July 27th
Still waiting...
InfoPass: This morning...07/28/08
Per the guy at the InfoPass counter, the FP report was received on July 24th (which probably explains the July 25th LUD). He said EAD will not be printed or sent out before FP check is complete. In 2007, they did not run FP checks to issue the first EAD after July fiasco.
So could this explain the delay that folks here are seeing? FP Code 2 was done for EAD, so not sure why this should take so long :mad: Maybe I am mistaken, but I thought that only FP Code 3 that's done for I-485 can take a long, long time. Can someone post info on EAD FP checks?
Update: Here's what I have after some quick research on USCIS biometrics:

You guys are atleast having some news to celebrate where in your petitions are approved. Im getting really concerned now as Im approaching closer to the end of my current ead expiration and I dont have any approval yet.
I just dont know what to do
Do you guys have any ideas for me??

"One can have a good quality of life in a small apartment...."
Not true - a small apt is a small apt no matter what. Yes, you can live with peace of mind in a small apt, and yes you can live happily in a small apt. This does not equate to quality of life. The "quality of life" in a 4 bedroom house with back yard is greater than that in a small 650 sq ft single bedroom apt ( if you put the same person who was happy in the small apt into the 4 bedroom house - even if his happiness level remains the same, his quality of life just went up)
Nothing against someone buying a 4BR house. I respect everyone's decision to buy whatever they can afford. I had been to one of my friend's 4BR home in North East during winter and felt like being in a igloo. The heat was set at about 62 to save on heating cost!
I'd rather have a 2BR apartment (or a 3BR based on need) and have a comfortable temperature.
One can buy a home but ensure one doesn't become 'house poor'!
