on a lighter note... after monday and tuesday even calender is saying WTF (MTWTF)... might be about this bulletin...
Never worried too much about filing for 485, GC etc. in the past because there were no issues with H1B. Now with the stamping torture, we badly need it. For me that is the number 1 reason.
Unable to work in the office with all this waiting and anticipation. All the very best to everybody.
EB-3 could take 70 years!!!!

Basically I think currently, there is certainly a push going on to portray the sad plight of EB based immigration. It would be interesting to find out who funded this report.
There are groups like IV, NIU, then election year coming up, Republicans, even us all signing those tons of petitions, large companies supporting. Even today I think there is a hearing by some people on STEM students retaining in the house. See OH law firm breaking news.
Q
All of you physics buffs are forgetting the great mumbai consulate which will contribute its share of the butterfly effect and results will be solely determined by that factor.
One small letter typed wrong...Mr X(Mumbai consulate visa person ) intends to type Jan 2008 and in his hurry to rush to the bathroom ( dont ask why he just had a spicy dinner at the dakshin restaurant) types Jan 2080. This sets off alarm bells in the office of the CO located somewhere deep underground the CIA office in Langley.
Poor CO has to cover up for the mistakes of his employee's..he is like a father to them (actually godfather like and he will deal with this insolence later...) .So CO puts his reputation at stake and makes it current .
And all this while we were blaming the CO.
P.S (The camera zooms out and images are rewinding and one catches an shadowy figure spiking the food with hot jalapenos at the Dakshin restaurant ) .
What you see is an apparent reality.
" The flap of an butterfly over africa will produce an storm over New York"
" The brilliance of mumbai consulate will make this category current "
one off topic question
Do we(Employee) receive original I-140 approval? I have only approval notice, Never saw the original I-140, according our admin guy they(Employer) would get only approval notice.It looks like for filing I-485,we don't need original I-140, if one exist, we just need,
--Approval notice for I-140, Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker;
Anybody thinks otherwise.
Nishant can we pleaase pleaase grab the charming CO also and then all three of us can sit down for a drink somewhere pleasant like the Thar desert in Rajasthan......want to convey my happiness to the CO personally
.
(Thodi si hi to pee hai plays in the background )
Glad the post made both of you smile ( cbpds1 and Monica behen)

Don't even take me to my crazy days. Can't say in public forum
Let me give you all an example of happiness and freedom after GC.
I just talked to my friend at workplace, he got GC a few months back. He will be completing 6 months after GC in December end and didn't want to change job before that, he was just fishing around a bit, just started. He already got an offer from HP, and they agreed to start date of January 2012, and shall wait for him. The hiring manager has a target to fill out to hire, and he is ok with this. He has been offered 100k salary in Texas, with all benefits as one would expect from HP, he can work from home, any hours, and if relocates to Texas, will get an office.
what happened dude, you changed your avatar? you look good now :-)

https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions#!/responses
Its 25000 signatures now and not 5000 as before.COMING SOON - Responses to Your Petitions
We the People gives Americans across the country the opportunity to petition the Obama Administration to take action on a range of important issues facing our country. If a petition gets enough support, the Obama Administration will review it, make sure it gets to the appropriate policy officials, and issue an official response.
If a petition gets 25,000 signatures within 30 days, it will go into a queue for the Administration to review and respond. We will do our best to respond to petitions that meet this threshold in a timely manner, but it may take a few weeks to issue an official response. All responses will be posted in this section of the We the People platform, and if you signed a petition that we respond to, you'll get an email from the White House to with the response.
Be sure to check back in the coming days and weeks to see petition responses from the White House.
In the meantime you can search for petitions on issues you care about, or create your own petition.
Hearing on STEM the TIDE!
Hearing on: "STEM the Tide: Should America Try to Prevent an Exodus of Foreign Graduates of U.S. Universities with Advanced Science Degrees?"
Testimony by VivekWadhwa.
1. The right solution is to significantly increase the numbers of visas that are offered to skilled workers in the EB1-through-3 categories. We also need to remove the per-country limits. If a move such as this proves politically untenable, then the conversion of temporary visas to permanent residencies could be tied to the purchase of a house, of say $250,000 or more in value. 2. We should provide permanent-resident visas for graduates of top U.S. colleges. Given that, among U.S. postgraduate engineering and science students, nearly half of masters and most PhD students are foreign nationals, it makes sense to encourage these students to stay in the U.S. after graduation. Though it will not guarantee that they will stay, it will certainly make it more likely. To limit abuse of this program, it should only apply to degree holders from research universities or universities with established and well-regarded science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) programs. We should also require that students receive job offers from legitimate U.S. corporations. 3. Another solution is to allow skilled workers to get a green card if they start a company that employs Americans. As we noted from our research, the majority of the foreign-born entrepreneurs who started Silicon Valley companies entered the U.S. for education or work. They started companies 13 years, on average, after their arrival in the U.S. So, this was the cohort that had entered the U.S. in the ’80s and early ’90s. A sizeable proportion of the 2000 cohort is stuck in “immigration limbo.” There are tens of thousands of such immigrants who are ready to start companies that create jobs if we let them.
