Guys,
Any Idea when we can come to know if the rumor is true or not ....
If this happens then a BIG gain for us and Some companies may even get washed out :)

How long do we July 2nd Filers have to wait before we can call ourselves "victims"?
I know some people have been waiting for years together hence my question.

One more suggestion:
US can put pressure Indian counterpart to freeze your Indian bank accounts, hence don't tranfer monies in any of your or your wife's accounts.
GCCovet
Why do they come on wife's account ? Is it legal if spouse makes mistake in any case ?

I took from:
Visitor Health Insurance, Pre-existing condition coverage, AIU (http://www..org/)
They cover pre existing conditions and one consultation for pre existing condition.
Routine expenses are never covered in any plan. What may be covered is unexpected emergency due to pre-existing conditions. That is, an acute onset of pre-existing conditions. Those are two different things.
Anyway, 's is a fixed coverage plan, that has daily limits on each coverage and pays only a small portion of actual expenses, even for new conditions.

I believe the guy or girl who made comment on Immigration website has more like a grudge and might be carrying some old IV mistakes like lack of transparency we had in past etc. But gotta understand, everyone makes mistakes and improve.
More, I don't understand that if that guy doesn't want to contribute coz he or she is poor - thats fine. He will still get benifits from IV efforts.

Based on this poll, can somebody predict EB3-I movement starting Oct'2008?
The dates moved from Apr'2001 to Nov'2001 last year when EB3-I didn't recieve any spillover. So what would be the movement when new year starts?
I am hoping atleast it will move forward and not backwards....
Dec 2001 is my guess. Hopefully, it will continue to move as the year progresses...

So, is it a good idea to wait until next week and then decide the course of action.
Can we send another application just in case? Has anyone talked to their lawyer. As per USCIS, even if they send the application back, it might take 30 days to receive the application. (Understandable, since it is USCIS).
Any one has any clue what to do?
Viral,
There is not much we can do. From Greg's yesterday's latest response that there were very few which were returned/rejected on July 2nd itself and this thread proves that we are not alone ...there are so many and status is unknown. Matthew Oh is also suggesting that it will be receipted. I think we are all safe and with time we will get receipt. Nobody...none of the attorney's are suggesting refiling. Now the thought that whether my packet was properly filed or not? I think that will always be there in the back of one's mind but if the attorney has done his/her job correctly I think we should not worry. Its not rocket science and documents required for filing are well known...so I would discount this risk. It appears we are all safe because as we all know that no rejection notices have been generated, packets if returned should have come back by now as per Greg....All in all it all points towards our packets being on hold there at respective centers....but as you rightly pointed out..towards the last week of July keep calling centers to know..but even before that keep eye on check clearing as that by far is the best and earliest clue that all is well with the case.
Stay tuned and I will keep on updating here on this nice thread that you created...i really appreciate it. Keep up the good work buddy!!
Best Regards,

Lets move on and focus on this main topic...
Here are my observations.. Correct me if I am wrong..
1. L1 option for IT is essentially killed
2. Small IT companies will limit the headcount to 50 per company. It doesn't cost much to have more than one company. So no major changes to H1B Desi companies.
3. Most of the big American companies will not offer new H1B with 180 days, since most of them would have had layoffs.
4. Most IT companies will start spending a lot on lawyers. So they will be rich. There will be lot of audits.
5. Companies will complete PERM and I140 before getting a guy onsite, only if people are really interested in coming to USA any longer.
6. Need more clarity on where H1B outsourcing will be stopped...

At least we should know that what is cooking inside. Because people are hanging here from 2001, USCIS should let us know how many GC(s) assigned to EB-3 India/ROW in 2008.
I would like to add one more item here but I don't know how many know this fact. I have seen and know that when someone wins a green card from Lottery, USCIS gives GC to all dependent family members of that person and they count one GC but in EB base they count GC for all family member(Primary applicant plus all his/her dependents). I think this is an Unjustice with us. We should raise this issue too.

1) USCIS/State Dept has lost the credibility of the people, thus we should not rely on what they say in Visa Bulletins.
2) How come they wasted so many Visas since 2004 while they are saying VISA un available for EB3-India all along.
3) Why did they have not transferred EB3-ROW unused Visas to EB3-India,china categories all along?
4) How come they are transferring unused Visas to EB2-India with out any LAW passed by congress.
5) Why they can not do same thing for EB3-India and why do they need new LAW and why ask congress again. Even congress has showed lot of frustration about this but things won't happen there over night. They take years.
So the point is why USCIS not transferred unused EB3-ROW visas to EB3-India,china from 2004 to 2008????
I think leadership of IV needs to focus on this and I will be behind it.

Know when your GC and passport expires so that you can renew it. :)
Getting a GC does not mean you can ignore all your immigration issues.
Abso-lute-ly :) Thanks pappu, your point is added.

Please realize that
a) immigrationvoice.com is a tool for the Immigration Voice organization. This website/forum has 10K members, and in any population of 10,000 people, you will get all sorts and kinds of people. There will be no unanimity of views. So, when it doesn't cost to express an opinion, you will get lots of opinions.
As we get more and more members, the number of opinions is only going to increase.
ImmigrationVoice Organization on the other hand, consists of some influential core members who have been working on EB-based issues for more than a year. This organization also has some active state chapters.
I would request you and your like-minded friend not to confuse the organization with the website.
Join the organization. Thats what matters. The website is only a tool.
b) The REAL POWER of this organization will lie in its state chapters. Trust me. If you sit with ten people you know, and talk about these issues, and resolve to do something about the situation, and come up with an action plan and an operating mechanism, that will be where the strength of IV lies.
This forum provides good live information (when there is a senate testimony, or call Senator session's office campaign going on), and sometimes useful information and announcements.
But most of the time, you will get opinions, and comic relief from here.
Friend of mine (to whom I contacted regarding IV) is in USA for 7 years and knows how lobbying & party funds are raised (including Watergate) and also very much aware of "Retrogression" and problems of being "Legal".
Also, he is aware of cause of IV and appreciate that but he is un-comfortable because whenever he login to IV, he noticed that:
- more than 40-50% respondents are talking about money/contributions & signatures showing how much they have contributed as of today,
- 10-15% are talking about blocking non-contributors(calling by Free Lunchers etc..),
- 5 % are Pseudo intellectuals (talking BIG but dont know immigration basics like - PD, issues of I-140/I485)
- 5% are always trying to shutdown others, accusing/calling by names to other forum members (he says "Highly skilled" in accusing!!)
- and remaining are "Positive" contributors for IVs retrogression cause (talking about - I spoke to senators office, can we arrange rallies, when to Fax/fliers, when State chapters are going to meet, posting excerpts from senate/CSPAN/News etc..)
Is our audience is so? Can we focus on our cause? pl be together like.. Like-Minded!!!

So we have an amendment that deals with Immigration Voice's goals - http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=521. Now what?
The Brownback amendment that benefits all of us in one way or other is on the table for the immigration bill(Specter’s, Frist’s whichever). Thanks to Senator Brownback, his staff, our counsel QGA, our friends in AZ and PA(not in core IV team) who played a key role in convincing the staff and Senator about our problems and solutions and MOST IMPORTANTLY - YOU - the volunteers and members who supported this operation financially and morally.
Friends, the game has just begun. The fun part, the challenging part comes now. Those who are familiar with S 1932 know that the real deal is the house-senate conference committee IF the immigration bill gets any traction in Senate post recess. In a rare event that immigration bill is ignored this year, we need to focus on getting these amendments in other bills like PACE act, TALENT bill etc. Immigration Voice’s morale is like DURACELL – IT NEVER DIES. NEVER NEVER NEVER.
So , before we open that Champagne bottle let's make sure that we are ready for the next stages in this effort:
1. Getting majority of Senators to vote "Yes" on our amendment.
2. Getting the opposing amendments to defeat the good stuff out of the senate bill.
3. Protecting this amendment in the House-Senate Conference Committee.
4. Defeating the harmful provisions that may be injected by more creative minds in the House during House-Senate Conf.
5. Continued efforts to find another bill for our provisions if the immigration bill fails. (Unlikely because of millions of undocumented workers holding rallies. Something WILL HAPPEN).
All this is going to take lobbying, grass-roots efforts and a lot of work.
So now, we regroup. We gain strength. Lend a hand to the fence-sitters to join us. Convince the NAYSAYERS that this works. And we raise more funds.
Today, IV Core group sincerely requests members to whole-heartedly contribute just like you contributed before. Let's give this movement a momentum so strong and powerful that its invincible. Let us get all hands on deck.
THE GOAL:
The goal is to raise another 75,000 in 25 days. That will bring the total contributions to around 150,000 by the first of May.
We have always asked people to contribute whole-heartedly as this is a non-profit operation, no core member or volunteer makes any money on this and we are accountable to IRS due to our non-profit tax status. We have always done EVERYTHING LEGALLY and will continue to do things legally. If in doubt, please visit the menu "Lobbying and the Law" on the homepage. Remember, the core members want their greencards too and they wouldnt be doing things that are illegal and risk their own greencard applications.
Conribute and be a part of most successful organized effort ever done by a bunch of high-skills legal immigrants. Be a part of movement that will make you proud for the rest of your life. Something to tell your children about. A few hundred dollars saved by not contributing will not make you happier. I can guarantee you that. The money I contributed to IV has been the most well-spent amount in 6 years of my time in US. And dont ever rely on "Others will do it and I can evade this as one person wont make difference" will NEVER WORK. It never does. If you think that there are friends that are affected by retrogression then call them, show them the amendment and tell them to stand up and support this.
Thanks, and make this another successful round of donations. Here is a link to our contributions page - http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=26&Itemid=44

Folks,
This my copyright and very much pertain to our situation:
*********************
I left my world in search of prosperity
The prosperity is taking an eternity
My struggle is long and daunting
Making it more and more frustrating
Life at times seems uncontrollable
Flowing with the time unstoppable
Graying hairs testify for the feeling
Fat belly making me further unappealing
Sometimes I think of going back
Try to gather the courage that I lack
But the world I left is not the same any more.
And the world I am in, has lost its lure.
I am on the crossroad of my life
One is forward, one is left and other is right.
I don�t like the choices shown
May be I would have to create a world of my own
***************
Thanks
You mirrored our feelings dude. You put it all together in a nice little poem. Good job.
