Here is what I have after analyzing the FLC Data Center MDB files
>2001 May 8 = 504 Certified Labors
2002 = 79784 Certified Labors
2003 = 62912 Certified Labors
2004 = 43582 Certified Labors
Total: 186782 Certified Labors
The above data is for world
Let's say India is 25% of world and 75% of India is in EB3
This gives 186782 * 0.25 * 0.75 = 35022 for India from 2001 to 2004
Since the country of the alien is available for Perm, let's use it for 2005 and 2006
2005 India = 1350
2006 India = 22298
Total for India in 2005 and 2006 = 23648
Pending in BEC: 111000
Applying the same formula for India EB3: 111000 * 0.25 * 0.75 = 20812
Total for India in all years till Dec 2006 = 35022 + 23648 + 20812 = 79482
Let's say 20% labors are duplicate or deserted. This gives 79482 * 0.80 = 63586
Total for India in all years till Dec 2006 with Dependents = 63586 * 2.2 = 139889
Total EB3 visas for India in a year: 140000 * 0.07 * 0.286 = 2802
Without any Law:
139889/2802 = 50 Years
Assuming CIR passes with
1. Dependents not counted
2. EB visas increased from 140,000 to 650,000
3. Per country quota raised to 10%
4. Exempts advanced degree holders
Total EB3 India visas per year = 650,000 * 0.1 * 0.286 = 18590
Total for India in all years till Dec 2006 without dependents: 63586
Assuming 20% have advanced degree holders = 63586 * 0.2 = 12717
Total for India in all years till Dec 2006 without dependents and advanced degree holders
= 63586 - 12717 = 50869
For India EB3 Priority date to reach Dec 2006 = 50869/18590 = 2.7 Years
Conclusion
Without Law: 50 Years :confused:
With Law: 2.7 Years :D

[QUOTE=GCwaitforever]That is somewhat slavish mentality. For a different perspective ... In the words of Curt Flood, "A well-paid slave is nonetheless a slave".
I think you hit the nail on the head GC,even though i get paid very nicely i honestly feel like a slave every single day for the past 6 yrs.
The last job i had to turn down was with a fortune 100 company and would have got to work on retrofit work on the Petronas Towers,every Architects dream, but had to turn it down because i cant travel till i get my GC cleared.
As far as a lawsuit i think if DOL does not clear all cases by end of 2007 all people affected should donate $300 towards a class action lawsuit,people who can afford more should donate more obviously,and even if it does not achieve much at least it would get pulblic attention.

Durbin likes to have it both ways - be perceived as being pro-immigration (for his work on behalf of Hispanic illegal immigrants) but also being the champion of unions. I think he might respond if he starts to get labeled as anti-immigrant. He will not want to start to get the label of being someone who opposes immigrants. But I'd probably stick to the flowers and make it IV's signature. When the media hears about another flower campaign, they'll know something big is up and that the person getting the flowers is being targeted for an important reason.
For some reason this thread caught my attention. Looks like this was discussed sometime back.
Sending flowers once again ???? Is this a good idea :D:D:D

You are saying ur PD was Sec 2005? Mine is Dec 2005. Should I also expect it sometime soon :)?
We all can expect and keep expecting ;-) My PD is Nov 2004 (EB2 NIW), RD for 485 is Aug 2005. Who knows, you could be luckier and FBI likes your name... They seemed to be not liking mine though.

Hi RC, that's just a nickname.
My PD is April 2002. At Nebraska Service Center, I was able to file the I-485 on Feb 2005 and from there we've got our EAD.
Yes, I know what you are saying about the one income, three people. There are many things to consider. We prefer that my wife invests more time parenting my child, therefore she is working only part-time. Part-time jobs typically are low income. It is hard to put your 1-3 year old child in a daycare full-time, you know. It is not the same than when you take care of your child, at least in my opinion.
If you ever come to Seattle, just send me a private message and we can organize something here.
Hi Marlon,
BTW, did you change your username??
We are in New York but if we ever come to Seattle we would love to meet you guys. How did you manage to get EAD for your wife? Is it possible on H4 before I-485 is filed and pending?
We would love to have a baby next year and hope that my hubby will be able to work by then...otherwise it is one income and three of us :(

All these articles say we are hoping to get citizenship. I think this word raises more shackeles than saying getting green card. Cmon, we are only thinking GC now. Ctizinship after 5 years is somewhat of a time bound process.
Why don these articles say we are waiting for GC. This atleast will be more palatable to the anti leagl immigration forces.More importanatly it refelects our true problem as of now.

One time one IO told me once you file your 485 or any application means USCIS is working on your case. You have to wait until they mail a decission. (what are we going to do though :p)
Here under review means same above meaning. Since your PD is not current. Even though they are working on your case doesn't mean any thing. :p
Good luck though. (we are seeing on forums that people are getting GCs without PD's are current.) :mad:
Cris,
I just called teh number and was able to talk to the officer.. he said the case under review.. means.. Any idea.
Thanks again.

Hi,
Even i reviewed the list of NOC on their site but I don't see any chages. But i could see one thing on that pdf list is the date still says February 5, 2009. So it;s not updated as per April 15,2009 if they revised the list.
So need to find out wether they revised the list of NOC or not..
any one knows???
Thanks in advanc,
Vishal.

My wife couldn't file her 485 as we got married in September. That's why I've to wait for her to get a valid visa (H1 if her file is picked in the lottery), else
F1 later.
Then If I use EAD, Is there any risk to her or myself ??
Is it Possible for me to come back to H1 once I start using EAD. (I have H1 valid till November 2010). ??
Thanks again for your response.

It is my turn to receive the "Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident" today. My depenedents are yet to receive this mail. This forum, Immigration-law, Immigration portal by Rajiv Khanna and many other immigration lawyers' websites like Murthy's etc were very useful to understand the immigration laws.
I did everything myself (EB2-NIW - India) - I140, I485, AP and EAD and my PD (I140 RD) and I485 RD are 08-30-2005.
I did make a one time conribution of $100.00 to IV.
Thanks a lot. All the best to all.
Congrats.
Which service center did you applied to. I have similar PD (8/22/05) and EB2 NIW at TSC.

I believe the intention of not moving too much beyond jul 06 , may be to make some spill over benfit happen to EB3 also. If they open the gate for EB2 now, lots of 485 application may come in and there may not be spill over to EB3. :)
Krupa
See how bad EB3 I shape is...
7,100 until 2002 Dec. That means, 2.5+ years before it hits Jan 1, 2003.
What about the people with PD > 2005. 33,400 / 2800 per year. 11+ years. :)
Retire!

I agree with GCBy3000. You can't be so straight forward with your employer that you will not work with him after this contract, after all he is sponsoring your future permanent job in United States. That said, you can always act smart and leave company after 6 months filing of I485. Tell him that you will be with him and if your PD is current you should file your I140 and I485 both now. If you are not in good terms with him, there is every possibility that you lose everything you gained including your PD.
If he is not wiling to file I485 even though your PD is current, talk to him and be in good terms with his so he files it, because it is worth it. PD current means a lot. Even if you I140 is approved and if you change company, you can keep the PD but only if he does not use that LC for some one else. Don't create an opening for him to make more money for your position replacing you.

My daughter is in college and I was wondering if there is any chance of getting a FAFSA loan for her with I-485 application applied in July 2007.
Thanks

If PD is not current, will USCIS process your I-485 application?
NSC indicates that they are processing I-485 applications with notice date of July 30, 3007. Does it mean they have processed all the I-485 applications received (ND) prior to that date even if PD was not current for all those applications?

This will not amount to discrimination in any way. If you are not able to show the proof that you are legally entitled to staying in the country for the coming 3-5 years (and many people here are extending their H1 status every year) it will be very risky for a lender to extend a 15-30 year mortgage to you.
As a matter of fact in a very competitive market lenders most likely won't turn your application down, but will make you pay more in interest, which again does not qualify as any kind of discrimination.
I was approved a mortgage app. at very competetive rates... you can be asked by a lender whether you are a permanent resident or citizen or not, but you cannot be turned away just because your GC is still in the works.
And if someone does choose to leave the country for some reason, they sell the property or put it on rent. Hopefully, they would have bought intelligently enough so that in case they need to put the property on rent, the rent would cover the mortgage!
