I have got email from my lawyer too regarding the change in bulletin coming MONDAY. I am worried for my life again. Is this all worth it? Title of her mail is I-485 could be rejected in July. I am done with this damn life. I can't take it anymore.
I really feel like crying now. Sitting on h-4 for 4 years and now I see a ray of hope and that is squashed too. I don't think this is fair. This is just not fair. Why the hell in the first place they have to make it current? I feel bad for all of us.
How many hours, how much money, how much effort, feelings, aspirations, hope. so much was built on that one news and the days from then on. and today it is NOTHING. I am sick and tired of this life.
Who is there to listen to us? NOBODY. Who will straighten this mess for us? NOBODY. We support each other and today we again have just one another to fall through this.

May I ask your immigration status. I believe you already got your GC and roaming around here just beat shit out of others. Each and every of your post is convincing me in that direction only. You would be happy to see the H1 guys thrown out from here. So it will increase your demand and you can make more money. What kind of person you are. is there any difference between you and anti-immigrant. Or are you that coming with Indian name to make fool out of us.
If you dont believe me, you read all your posts again. You are always talking about banning desi consultant. You are more than welcome for that. But you did you even thought about a second for guys who are genuine and unfortunate to work for them.
People are already stressed out. If you got your GC please go-away and enjoy your freedom.
senthil1 is one of those who is "shut the door behind you" kinds folks. He has been consistent on his stand and he wants to side anti immigrants. He is a disgrace and shame to your community. I had a feeling that sometime back he was 'reformed criminal" but does not seem so anymore.

for some reason, the pdf file is not opening....I will do the flyer posting wherever I can.....We should also probably write up a mail that can be mass mailed to recruit the many who are affected or may potentially be affcted by this issue, or whose loved ones are affected. We should also do a smart media camapaign- even try to draw attention of network programs like 20/20 or 60 minutes that have a mass impact- to the really tragic situation many ppl are in (esp. one case from the last board comes to mind- of course we have to be ultra-sensitive about privacy and other sensitivities of the individuals involved).....getting the attention of the major networks may not be as far fetched as it seems- much less worthy causes have been championed by these programs.....if we articulate it well to the producers involved, with the right mix of facts and the personal, I believe many will consider it seriously, even though immigration is a complex issue to many....like i said we shd not underestimate the american sense of fairness, and we have a very good cause where we need some of it.....it will appear dreadfully unfair to many that people who have been paying social security taxes for 5-10 years are not even allowed the security of knowing whether they themselves will be eligible for it when they need it! That notion will give a jolt to most unbiased americans who typically associate immigration with people sponging off the system

Listing down things I did after my date was current-
1: I opened an SR on July 5th (immediately after long weekend) as my date was current in July. Got back a response in a week that no visa numbers available. Either their system was not updated or they didnt check to see if dates were current.
2: Had to wait a month before I could open another SR. In first week of August I contacted local congresswoman/opened another SR. Congresswoman reply was that the case is being actively worked on.
3: Also, contacted the Ombudsman (mailed all the required docs) in 1st week of August. Got a response in early September that Ombudsman can help to improve procedural inefficiencies in USCIS or some extreme cases.
4: Sent an email to SCOPSSCATA@dhs.gov on August 4th with pretty much the same details- case pending/PD etc. On same day they forwarded email to NCSCfollowup, TSC for resolution.
5: On Aug 9th got reply from NCSCfollowup, TSC that file has been requested. To allow 60 days.
6: After this I did not followup in any way. Then I got an email from NCSCfollowup, TSC on 17th September that my case review was complete, prints/security was over and my file would be forwarded to officers for completing.
7: Got approval email today (September 21st).
In my opinion the email to SCOPSSCATA@dhs.gov helped the most.
If anyone needs any details on email/letter format please let me know. (Green.Tech, Saileshdude...)

Some of the feedback we got when we met our legislators here in Dallas was, when ever we send letters of these kinds they get much more attention when
1) The letter has a personal story in it
2) Letter is hand written
If the letter is hand written and has a personal story in it (along with the IV agenda) then it's likely that some one will read it. On the other hand if it's just a printed copy of a standard letter then it's just going to get tossed into a bin.
Yes you are correct.

same here Buddy, i was told that cases assigned to officer on Aug 3 and pre-adjudicated.(NSC)
havnt heard back eversince. got standard reply to SR:
"Your I-485 case as August 12, 2010 is currently under review. You should receive a decision or notice of other action within 60 days of the date of this letter."
I am in the same situation. I share your pain.
I think the scientific community should stop their search for a black hole. Considering the difficulty in extracting the least bit of information from the USCIS, they will beat any black hole hands down. :-)

USCIS has become efficient, by this time all (or most) of the EB2-I visa might have gone. I am wondering any 2005 approvals?
Basically this would give some idea, what to expect in Nov.

Are you suggesting that no fraud should be reported?
I would say, any fraud, whether H1/L1/F1, employee related, employer related should be reported? Why should law abiding immigrants/workers pay for those who are committing fraud?
>> 1 in 100 citizen has gone to jail.
Not correct. There are about 260 jail inmates per 100,000 US residents.

Getting any sort of data out of any of the immigration agencies is often frustrating. Especially something like how many eb2 I-140 did they accept, approve, deny... However, they do randomly throw number out and we can scavenge through them for `clues'. Here is one such link.
USCIS: National Processing Volumes and Trends (http://dashboard.uscis.gov/index.cfm?formtype=7&office=5&charttype=1)
I agree, thanks.
