Like it or not In legal language you become more so called bright in EB2. If you apply in EB1 you upgrade your so called brightness. It does not matter in reality who you are. But as far as law goes for EB1, EB2 and EB3 etc it prioritizes based on qualifications needed for performing the job function. Our employers and lawyers decide on those requirements. Have you questioned those requirements?
Maybe if we had questioned those requirements laid down by employer and lawyers, more people would be in EB2.
Yes you are absolutely right, had we questioned, then some of the brighter and brightest wouldn't have been legally brighter and brightest (would have had to experience downgrade of their brightness). Most of the brighter and brightest wouldn't have even got into the path / line to become brighter and brightest. Since you are in legally brighter side I am afraid that you won't be able to comprehend the issue and solution of less legally brighter ones.

There is no point in educating a mass of angry, frustrated EB3-I folks.
By preference (a LEGAL statute), EB1>EB2>EB3
For spillover (a LEGAL statute), EB1>EB2>EB3
EB1-I get their GCs in about a year.
EB2-I get their GCs in about 6 years.
EB3-I get their GCs in about 8 years.
SO WHAT IS THE BLOODY PROBLEM??? Wait your turn patiently like everyone else, or upgrade your skills and education to apply for EB2 jobs. Stop bitchin' and moanin' and trying to find shortcuts in life. There are none.
Please IGNORE I_Got_Skillz and lets continue healthy debate. We should not let person like this create distraction.

Years we have been told priority date establishes your place in the queue.
We have spurned job offers and declined the new PERM process to hold on to the priority dates.
Many are still awaiting labor certifications from the backlog elimination centers. Out comes USCIS and says everyone with a LC can file I140 & I485.
People still waiting for LC with priority dates in 2003-2004 are seeing applicants who have priority dates as late as 2007 but with approved LCs through PERM walk through to I485.
Net result, USCIS is going to be flooded with applicants enough to retrogress the priority dates 3-4 years back as early as september. (Everybody with a LC will be able to file for I485 in July). So applicants with priority dates of 2007 are going to get EAD and GC, while LC backlogged 2003 applicants to have to wait for another 3-4 years before they can even file I485.
Aint fair. Aint fair at all. How can this be. How can rules be changed in the middle of the game.
I concur with you. This isn't fair. I am in a situation where it seems I'm stranded on an island. A rescue boat is passing by and I may not be able to reach it at all.
Furthermore, my lawyers tell me that DOL may extend it's September deadline that it set for clearing backlogs. What did we gain by not going for better opportunities, and just clutching on to our priority dates?
It's far from over. It's far from being a relief. Sounds more miserable than before.

Till early part of 2004 or latter part of 2003, most of the Indians applied EB3 very few applied EB2. After 2004, it was reverse. I doubt any one appled EB3 in 2005 0r 2006.
If EB3 stays continously in 2001 and EB2 in 2004 (there is 3 year difference in cutoff date between EB2 and EB3 now), the guys with EB3 PD 2002 and 2003 will convert to EB2 by applying new 140 to transfer PD. This flow will balance the cut-off dates. Eventually it will reach a common ground or a break-even point.
There is a small problem with EB3->EB2 PD porting I guess. Now that premium processing for I-140 is suspended indefinitely, I-140 approvals may take a while for this porting to happen.

It is good to see the combined Immigration community efforts are bringing results. However, it appears that no attention is being paid to raise the issue of children ageing out because of visa retrogression and delay in labor clearance. The Child Status Protection Act(CSPA) passed in the year 2002 hardly provides any relief to I-140 based immigration petitions. While for I-130 (for US Citizens) applicants the date of child is frozen on the date of submission of I-130 form it-self, but for employment based immigrant applicants this Act provides a complicated way to calculate the child�s age and it just provides relief for any processing delays in 1-140 clearance only. It just ignores the fact that we have years of retrogression for employment-based category. At the time when this act was passed there was no retrogression in employment-based category and lawmakers perhaps never thought of hardship, which children and families may face because of the retrogression.
We need to raise our voice on this issue too. My son is going to miss out the chance of getting his green card just because his age works out as per formula given in CSPA Act to be 21 years and 12 days � because of 12 days my family may be penalized to be separated from our child whereas no one is going to consider 3 years delay in labor case in my case and then another 13 months we have to wait for filing 1485 after approval of I-140. Mine case was the most unfortunate in the sense that I got my I-140 approval in just 29 days whereas in all cases the normal time is 3-6 months. Had it taken 2 months, my son would have got the benefit under CSPA.
I hope some one from Immigration Voice leadership team will take a lead to highlight such issues also before the law makers.
Sorry to hear your son is going to fall into what I can only describe as a black hole that the system choosed to totally ignore. I faced this situation a year and a half ago and transferred my son to an F1 student visa. As long as he is registered for 12 credit hours in college he gets to stay in the US. This is NOT a long term solution but there are few options available. We have to hope that somebody somewhere who can change things will finally see this as a problem and act on our behalf. I have contacted dozens of senators, congressmen etc etc and in all but two cases did not even get an acknowledgment.

I have applied for birth certificate at Indian Consulate, SFO and received from them. They simply attested the information on my Passport on their letter head..will that be sufficient or I should get it from MRO/etc from India?
Per my attorney- Date of birth info provided my anyone but the local municipality is insufficient and won't be entertained by the USCIS. Unless you and your attorney are willing to try your luk with the RFE, I'd suggest that you get the birth cert from the local authorities.

Now this is what is going to happen.
Because DOS and USCIS screwed up big time playing loosely with laws and expecting no reprisals for their actions, they will now beg/borrow for the lost visa numbers and make them available for July filers.
I see no escape route for the mess up. Rice, who did not pay any attention to this fisco gave her on the lip casual response to MSNBC reporter.
It looks like this issue is bigger than Iraq from security stand point of view and also with latest information of Al-Qaeda making statements to get into US for attacks.

tonyHK12 appreciate your inputs. We are already united. IV has several thousand members and has conducted several campaigns. The leaders are very capable persons also. You have put forward a general idea but this has been debated a great deal. What is the purpose of even a poll when it is absolutely clear that everybody in this group would welcome a bill solely for reducing backlogg? The question is how can we get the legislator to write and introduce such a bill and then how to get it to pass. Who will support such a bill? Your desire is similar to everybody else in this group but until there is a definite strategy which is different from what has already been tried there is no point in just creating discussions foccussed on desires.
First think out a strategy and put it out. Others will then coment or join it.
Putting out vague goals like "we need a bill" is of not much use. the question that you need to answer is "how?"
You nailed the point.
I agree with your comments completely.
On a side note: Politicians in this country are not much different than Laloo...:D:D:D
They just different kind of "Ghascharo"....I do miss seeing him on television! (dont have zee tv or sony etc :D).

Contribute for what. I would , If I am told for what we are contributing. What are the real faces.
I am not one of those who can go advocate at places as I do not have luxury of it. I respect people who are going beyond their daily schedule and advocating, but what are the goals.
I however want to contribute not *donate* if I know what am I going after.
For any advise the standard answer we get is - Consult your immigration lawyer.
I dont want to dampen the interests of others who are ready to contribute. Tell me few reasons and I can contribute a decent amount.
May be we should make this paid. and then I will find my reason and I will pay to join

Finally I was greened after 4 years and 3 months from my I-140 approval date.
I opened a SR yesterday and today my CPO e-mail came to my mailbox. However my wife's status says
"On August 2, 2010, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later."
Do you know what does it mean?:confused:
I am not sure whether opening a SR helped or not. Good luck to everyone. Remember GC is something but not everything in life. Being healthy and spending quality time with your family are more important than GC.
Congrats Masterji. BTW, how were you able to open the SR. I called them this morning and they told me that my PD became current yesterday so I should wait for 30 days before calling them back.

No you cannot renew before 12 months from exp date
Expiry date is 15 months away. Can I still renew? I'm not too sure but I guess one can't renew before 12 months of expiry date. Is this true?

Why cant USCIS/DOS simply release a memo every quarter about how many EB immigrant visas they issued and how many are unused. It does not need to be detailed report like the yearly one DOS releases after the end of fiscal year.
