What do you mean "that is easily offset by EB-CP "?
You should know, Family Based immigration is really the backbone of immigration in current systems, much more people get FB than EB. Also, Employment through CP is really an anormalty in EB, since EB basically requires you to be physically present in this country, so almost bars the possibility of CP. Yes, it is leagal, but not really practical. So, the number of people seeking FB 485 is way much larger than number of people seeking 485 CP.

I know it includes FB application but that is easily offset by EB-CP also seeking visa numbers.
So the wait time is really very long for July 2007 filers with later PD.

Hi All,
Here is my situation and I would like to get some feedback.
My I-140 sometime back was denied as I have a three year Bachelor degree and the Labor had asked for "3-year Bachelor or foreign equivalent" (I did use the threeyearpeople.com but it did not pan out for me). I had my lawyer file an appeal immediately. I know it probably will be denied but I have exhausted my 6 years on H1 and need to have the process going for H1 extensions.
I also started a new PERM process, this time without the degree requirement. My PERM was approved and I-140 has been filed.
Now The thing is that I about to finish my masters in May and after I get my degree I am considering filing an EB-2 petition using my Masters. My questions are:
1) Can I use the masters degree that I got with the same employer for filing a new process under PERM? The lawyer is saying that I cannot but my research seems to indicate that while we cannot use the experience gained with the same employer, there is no restriction on using the degree that we receive with the same employer as long as the employer does not pay for it. Am I correct? If so, can someone point out an official resource? a memo or something. I intend to take it to my boss and try to convince him to refile in EB2. The reason of course being that EB3-ROW is retrogressed.
2) Can I have two GC with the same employer? I know that I can have 2 GC pending with 2 different employers but can we have them with the same employer? Are there an requirements in terms of salary, job title etc?
Thanks in advance for your input,
Regarding the EB3 initial case you filed, the requirement should have been a 4 yr bachelor's degree plus 1 year of experience with the alternative requirements of a 3 year bachelor's degree and a 3 year master's degree. We took over a case like this from another law firm where it was denied and we won ONCE, maybe because the officer was in a good mood. Likely, you are right, the appeal will not go through.
Your master's degree can be obtained while you are with your current employer, yes, as long as the employer doesn't pay for any of it. Your experience however must be with a different company or in an extremely different position within the company (sometimes hard to prove, though.)
You can work on the process for your EB2 case, but I highly doubt it would be advisable to file a new EB2 I-140 petition for the same company while the other I-140 with the same company under EB3 is still pending. One big reason would be ability to pay. The best thing to do IMO would be to wait until the new EB3 petition under I-140 has been approved and then file the new EB2 and do a re-capture of the EB3 priority date.

This idea is ridiculous. Blood donation is a sign of protest????? If you think giving blood is so bad and you want to protest in that way, you will not gain sympathy.
THIS IS A BAD IDEA FOR A PROTEST!
Before I say any thing further, I want to clarify that I am NOT asking for any action but want to point out to a unique Gandhigiri protest idea proposed by one of our members:
On one of the posts rajmehrotra suggested "Something like a mass blood donation drive will garner empathy and publicity in a positive way." This was seconded by another member Gravitation. Not sure what other people think but I personally liked this idea very much.
So please save this idea for future use if others also recommend it.

It should be new procedure for each person.
Thanks for your information. I have filled out my information and added spouse and child pending cases after adding my case. When i tried to start new procedure for spouse and child, it is giving me error that i have already notified the address change. Asked me to contact back after 45days.
I guess, it should be ok.

I have Canadian GC since 2.9 years ago. I have to move to Canada in the next 2-3 months in order to maintain it. Should I move? I have stable job in US. I mostly thought I would have received my US GC by now. Is there any legal implications if I don't move. Do I just have to mail my canadian GC back to canadian consultate?

A friend of mine filed a few days before me and got his EAD a few days ago..from TSC.Hoping the July 2nd rush would not affect me by more than a few weeks.My lawyer is not able to confirm if the checks were cashed. I cannot tell if the checks were cashed either as these were checks from my company.
The lawyer however mentioned that my premium processing check may return (I-140) and my application may have gone in regular queue. Everything is speculation for now..Any one else in the same boat or can throw more light...

The online AR11 form is giving 2 options . which one should we choose?
Only the first option (for US citizen) is giving options for pending cases!!!!
* Yes, this change of address is for a US Citizen
* No, this change of address is not for a US Citizen
Thanks

Unless you *are* a US citizen, you must choose the second option.

New Jersey Sen. Robert Menendez plans to reach out to a South Carolina Republican to craft a bipartisan immigration reform bill in the next Congress.
But it's not clear that Sen. Lindsey Graham will want to work with the top-ranking Hispanic Democrat on Capitol Hill.
Graham spokesman Kevin Bishop said last week his boss wants Congress to pass a 10-point plan to boost border security before attempting to overhaul the immigration system.
Menendez introduced an immigration reform bill just before the Nov. 2 elections that he said takes a middle-of-the-road approach, incorporating ideas that Republicans such as Graham, Sen. Jon Kyl of Arizona and Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah have presented in the past.
Menendez said in December that Graham has expressed interest in writing a bipartisan bill.
"If he is, then what I hope to do is to draft something together that will have some level of bipartisan support," Menendez said. "If that doesn't happen in a reasonable time period, then I'd like to introduce the bill again (in the next Congress) as a foundation to get something moving. If there's nothing to have hearings about, nothing to debate over, you will never move forward."
But Bishop said Menendez and Graham haven't discussed working on an immigration bill.
The Menendez proposal, co-sponsored by Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., would eventually legalize illegal immigrants, improve border security, crack down on employers who hire illegal immigrants and make it easier for legal residents to bring family members to the U.S.
Graham has a history of working across party lines and often has been the only Republican willing to buck his party to strike political compromises. But that approach may be politically risky now that the GOP has turned more conservative under the influence of the Tea Party movement.
In 2007, Graham joined Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona in pushing hard for an immigration reform bill that Menendez helped write. But the measure died in the Senate, with Menendez ultimately voting against it because some of his proposals had been stripped out. The measure never reached the House.
In 2010, Graham collaborated with another liberal Democratic senator, Chuck Schumer of New York, on an immigration reform plan that called for legalizing about 11 million illegal immigrants and improving border security. The two discussed the proposal with President Barack Obama at the White House.
But Graham quickly ended that partnership, accusing Democrats of politicizing the issue and citing his opposition to the Democratic health care reform bill.
Aggressive GOP opposition to Democratic immigration plans was evident during the lame-duck session when Republican senators -- along with some Democrats -- teamed up to kill the DREAM Act, which offered the children of illegal immigrants a path to citizenship if they completed two years of university or military service.
"Illegal immigration is a nightmare for America," Graham said in a December statement after the DREAM Act died. "Giving a pathway to citizenship without first securing the border is an inducement to encourage more illegal immigration. This is nothing more than a political game by the Democrats to try and drive a wedge between the Hispanic community and Republicans."
The DREAM Act's failure lessens chances that a broader immigration bill will pass a deeply partisan Congress, Menendez acknowledged.
"These are . . . children who came to this country through no decision of their own," he said. "They were brought here by their parents. Overwhelmingly, they only know America as their country. . . . If you can't get (the DREAM Act) agreed to, then I think the rest of it will be a lot more hard sledding."
In April, Arizona enacted the nation's toughest immigration enforcement law, which allows police to detain and question people about their immigration status. The administration is challenging the law in court. Several other states are likely to pass similar legislation.
In response, Congress approved legislation -- which became law in August -- providing $600 million in emergency funding for 1,000 new Border Patrol agents, 250 new Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and unmanned Predator drones to patrol the border.

I'm also a Conon user, and not so "big" a macro photographer as Gary( Sorry for the pun, ;) ), but I use the Canon 100mm macro, and I'm with you on wanting a longer macro. You have to get awfully close for good shots, and I think a little more length would work better for me.
Also, on the autofocus that Gary mentioned, I like the faster autofocus on the Canon over the Sigma, not for macro, but simply because I can use it as a "normal" 100mm f/2.8, which saves me from having to carry another 100mm lens.

But I definitely want to send Condi a letter reminding her of the contributions of the skilled legal immigrant community to the thriving US economy since ages.
Its because of us skilled immigrants that economy is thriving. Even the US business leaders accept that. We have the skills to setup new companies and create new jobs for everyone.
