Here is the status update from HLG website. Note the date. Anybody here at IV, agree with me, if it needs to be countered by a direct web fax to Congress.
2/12/2007 IMMIGRATION ALERT:
ADVOCACY ALERT: RETROGRESSION: WE'RE GETTING CLOSE
HLG has confirmed that the Senate leadership is comfortable with a proposal to solve retrogression for Schedule A occupation -- registered nurses and physical therapists. It was through grassroots advocacy that we were able to explain to the Senate leadership just how important this issue is. Thank you to everyone who made an effort.
We now must turn our efforts toward the House.
If anyone works with or at any hospitals in the following Representatives' districts, please contact Chris Musillo (cmusillo@hammondlawfirm.com; 513-381-2011 x223) ASAP.
Rep. Lofgren (D - CA) : 16th District - San Jose
Rep. Eshoo (D- CA) : 14th District - San Francisco, San Jose, Santa Cruz
Rep. Pelosi (D - CA) : 8th District - San Francisco and north
Essentially anyone who is located in the Bay Area and wants to see retrogression solved should contact their hospital leadership and see if they are willing to make a few phone calls and sign onto a letter. If they are willing to do that, please let Chris know ASAP. Chris can then explain exactly what needs to be done.
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.
We're getting close.

I know two cases that stuck in porting to EB2 from EB3. They received audit. They provided all info but yet to receive any response. Its over a year. Port only when you have all papers in hand and your Employer and Attorney will provide good support. My company refused to convert into EB2 and also they done want to provide any I140 and labour info.

Just contributed $ 200. Receipt ID: 00M756271K0810455
Frankly, with a priority date of May 2003, India, EB 3, I've given up on my own green card. I've contributed over $ 1000 so far to IV, excluding the $ 200 contribution I just made. (Making my cont. over $ 1200 so far)
At this point, if Anyone at all, ROW or whatever, gets Any benefit, its money well spent. I don't care anymore whether I get the GC or not... I'm getting older by the day, and the whole thing is looking more and more stupid... even surreal to me. The whole thing is piece of crock now, a Kafkaesque joke.

Thanks, Andy. So, 80K LCs a year, 10%-15% of them will probably never get to AOS stage, 20% of those were duplicates (for people with petitions stuck in the backlog centers), so we are talking about 50-55K new labor certificates each year that will result in I-485. This is very consistent with 85K new capped H1Bs plus whatever number of exempt (non-profit research) H1Bs every year. So, we are talking about 100-110K total AOS applications (with dependents). Now lets take 140,000 EBs, substract Schedule A and EB1 (no need for LC), and there is probably 10K extra EB visas should be left over each year (quota less new potential EB petitions). Those are probably going to land in EB3 ROW. That means the retrogression will become less severe. What we are experiencing right now, is the rabbit that moves through the snake - the EB petitions resulting from a higher H1 cap several years ago.

Asking the question is never the problem, it may make people uncomfortable but I want people (like yourself) who are contributing to at least ask IV before ranting on people like me (who dont contribute) to support the cause...Supporting the cause is NOT equal to giving IV money. The republicans already tried something similar ..."If you are anti-war, you dont support the troops"..That was fallacious and so are all the personal attacks on the "freeloaders" (like myself ofcourse).
this reminds me of a true story of a 5 year old kid who asked his grandma, why are you pouring somuch money building a wall around the empty site when you could have built a nice house. For him to understand and appreciate the necessity to spend money on the wall, he needs to understand numerous things. What can you tell such a kid. You'd smile and leave it at that. Sure he has a valid point about putting the money to a better use.
The point you are making is also same. There is definitely truth in that but there is more around that. When you look at the big picture , you'd get it. Otherwise, when some one tries to explain it , it will sound like a rant.

How long does it take to get the "prevailing wage info"? Does it come from State DOL or the Federal DOL?? I'm from Ohio
Thanks
Nat
Hi Nat,
Fragomen took about 6 months in getting "prevailing wage info" for my case in 2001. My manager ( Canadian who had gone through US GC process himself) finally talked to them and asked them to file without waiting for DOL's reply on prevailing wage. (That was a risk but we agreed to take it at that point)
That six months delay costed me 6 years in GC processing ! But thanks to my manager , otherwise I dont know how many more years I would have waited.(One of my co-worker still awaits his labor cert !)
The big law firm goes by predefined steps , which are probably the safest way for most cases but may not be the fastest way. You need somebody who has been through this process and can understand and asks good questions to lawyers and can help lawyers to think for your perticular case. Check if you have somebody in your org to do that.
All the best.

Hello everyone,
I really really wanted to come but unfortunately am working on a very important deadline.
However my wife can come, but she would need a ride as she cannot travel alone.
Is anyone going with family to DC. If a family is travelling to DC from the Philadelphia area, (& coming back on the same day) she is VERY eager to come.
Please let me know. My email is neoparsee@gmail.com

Mark Krikorian is the MAN. He's the brain. Rest don't matter.
Most likely the CIS "immigrants" were ex-undocumenteds who got "Amnenstied" in 1986. What ancedote will they use? How they broke the Immigration laws back then?
I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out than some of them were former "Grand Dragons" at triple-K! Not revealing the past is an indicator of closet full of nasty skeletons.
HAHA - you are right that hes the chief but when I used to have cable I have seen the other two dudes regularly on CNN/Fox as 'experts' thats why I was curious.

Same sex marriage couples cannot sponser for GC?
But they can get Insurance coverage and family benifits from the state.
May be USCIS to prevent malpractice by the people to get the GC.
Wait a minute....are you saying that USCIS doesn't want ppl to falsify a perm residency application by faking a same-sex marriage and therefore there are no immigration benefits for same-sex couples?
Wow....let me share this with you: USCIS doesn't make up these rules; it stems from a US Law called DOMA - Defense of Marriage Act which only offers the 1,152 federal benefits of marriage to hetersexual couples.
The statement you make is rather disheartening; it implies that there is no falsification of heterosexual marriages today in an attempt to get a GC. It also implies that heterosexuals would fake a same-sex marriage to get a GC.... do you really think it is easy to fake any marriage? To what extent would a heterosexual man or woman endure and fake a same-sex relationship to get a GC? Be realistic, each and every marriage or "permanent partnership as contemplated by the UAFA bill" have to and "would have to" prove a valid relationship before a GC can be approved for that case by the IO at the time of interview.
This dialogue has veered off course from the main subject of this thread - I apologize for that. But sometimes sharing information can help enlighten others. Thanks for your patience with me.

But they can get Insurance coverage and family benifits from the state.
May be USCIS to prevent malpractice by the people to get the GC.
Wait a minute....are you saying that USCIS doesn't want ppl to falsify a perm residency application by faking a same-sex marriage and therefore there are no immigration benefits for same-sex couples?
Wow....let me share this with you: USCIS doesn't make up these rules; it stems from a US Law called DOMA - Defense of Marriage Act which only offers the 1,152 federal benefits of marriage to hetersexual couples.

Its not a merit system, its a disguised diversity visa in the name of skills/merit. What kind of merit system will not have qualifying points? Its a shame that Sen Kennedy's website gave examples of how people ranging from 50-89 points can get GC's. Just call it diversity visa. Its a lie of massive proportions. When is Sen Kennedy up for election?
Dude he is a Kennedy...he is a senior senator from MA and for all intents & purposes is in senate for life...

Since this bill has EB based provisions and does not have controversial guest workers program, would it make more sense to support this bill if it were to be tabled on senate floor instead of Specter's bill? Especially since house is totally opposed to any bill which has a guest worker program.
Moderators and those involved with IV's lobbying firm give it a thought as this bill will be less controversial than specter's.

Yes, you are right. It shouldn't take years to make a decision even if it is complicated. I think they may be not working on those cases at all. That may be the reason, they didn't comeup with any decision. It will be good if DOL gives the operating procedures and comeup with fair action on what they are really doing.
My case was filed in 2002 under traditional labor certification. DOL never questioned anything or asked for any clarifications (so I assume there were no complications). The job was advertised in last April (it was a little newspaper advertisement with few lines and very generic job requirements). There were no resumes received. But still I have not received my labor approval. So what baffles me most is why has the DOL been not able to taken any decision on my case even after 5 years. One of my friends who applied in traditional labor two years after me has already received his LC. Let us say, for argument sake, the case was complicated. How complicated can it be to be delayed by several years, not months? We probably would get answers to these questions only if we drag the DOL to court and make them explain.
