This is for the ones who think that the discrimination based on EB3 or Eb2 is a bigger issue! I would not get into the discussion on why I think that IV is not just about EB2. Also, on our forums it's about reality and not empathy, which everyone should understand.
Now having said that, please direct your energy towards elimination of country limits rather than fighting a fight which was in your past. Why your company put you in EB3 and not EB2 is not something USCIS or US can control anyways. But when you are EB2 or EB3 with same qualification, experience and expertise compared to someone from say Europe, Australia and many other countries but China, India, Mexico and Philippines than why should that other person get it before you do when you applied before him???? What is America getting anything different from this other person?
Now talking about diversity for country limits India is more diverse than any other country in the world! And hey, most of them are already here in the country and waiting in queue, how is this helping the diversity?

Perhaps we should try to lobby Cantwell (as she seems sympathetic) to increase the number of EB green cards to clear the backlog, if the CIR comes back.
Just a thought.

People think best in their native language, that�s why Japanese, Chinese, Americans or the Europeans progressed faster with all the challenges. I think India should give opportunity for every language not just Hindi and English to go maximize once potential. For historical reasons I think every Indian has the duty to preserve all our languages and heritage. Instead of confusing people with mandates, we should have more options. On personal note I like Tamil even though I am not a tamilian, because it is the only international, oldest living and a classical language from India.

485_se_dukhi, thanks for U'r suggestion about meeting local lawmakers. Indeed that is exactly what ppl had done on Sep 17 - Sep 19. We just covered about 150 lawmakers thats just ~1/4 of the lawmakers. Everyone can do the lawmaker meets at their local office, it doesn't require lot of effort just a few phone calls and few hrs to spare. Atleast one person from U'r state chapter would have attended the lawmaker meeting, U should contact U'r state lead on this and proceed further. Also those people who already attended the lawmaker meets are coached on what (not) to say during such meets..
I am sorry to say that "undocumented ppl" have more sponsors in Washington than that for EB-based immigration ppl:D We can sit and whine on forum, unless we take our issues to the forefront (lawmakers and media) no one is going to bother us:p Thats reality:D
How about meeting all our local congressmen and lawmakers in the next few weeks??
Since one of our key issues is educating people about our plight, it would be good to meet some of our local senators/representatives and explain our side to them.
Many of them are equally clueless about the difference between green card backlogs and H1 B visa limits (my local rep for example), legal and illegal immigration etc.
So instead of holding a rally so close to this one, why not have a few more lobby days or meetings with our reps??
Incidentally I like the idea of sending doughnuts/pizzas to the media people specially CNN...:) for obscuring our rally and misrepresenting it as "Amnesty demands"...:rolleyes:

The most important part of rally is the lawmaker meeting because they decide to bring up the bills and then vote on them.
There are 635 lawmakers: 100 senators + 535 house members. It would be great if we could set up at least 1 meeting with every lawmaker and more meetings with immigration sub committee members.

Having an approved 140 and a 485 pending for more than six months is the safe method of switching. For AC21, the key is to have your 485 pending for more than six months. You can use AC21 to switch employers after six months of filing of 485 even if your 140 is not approved. Its not a simple process but folks have done it.
dilbert_cal:
That's interesting. I did not know that you could invoke AC21 'even if the I-140 is not approved'.
Thanks.

No need to jump the gun. I didn't ask it at a personal level, in case you didn't understand it! Instead of nitpicking on a single statement, read the whole paragraph! I am a member of a state chapter and keep posting on the Yahoogroups, though it's been a month since anyone else posted there ( and I don't get any replies).
I'm not getting into personal level/ad hominem discussion as it's pointless. I don't need to prove anything to anybody.
Here is the deal, the idea of state chapters is for grass roots organization. We can't reach out to everyone if we don't have remote hubs, it is as simple as that. We recently revived the WA state chapter and I keep sending emails, one or two respond, the rest are silent readers. However they did join the group and we are now 30+ members. Now, we plan to have a conference call and then we are planning to get together within 2 weeks to meet all of these members. No one is forced, but we would send out and invitation to every member. Then we come out with certain agendas and action items that fall within IV goals. Like one of the main things is to meet local law makers within each state for follow up. This is best done at state level. So I understand the part that you care confused is nothing is happening and you just keep writing. I know the feeling but can you get everyone together, can you get to meet them one by one. Trust me, once you get the ball rolling, before you know, you will have a big strong chapter that makes it easier to pass targeted messages and so on. When IV events are held in a national level, information and action items can be distributed to state chapter leaders who can then follow up.
But yes, it is hard work in the beginning to get every one on board, trust me, I am fighting the same battle, but hard work pays off!

Why don't we concentrate on state chapters.. that surely makes some big difference. We were able to apply for I-140 and I-485 thats a huge blessing. But do we have enough time to motivate our EB friends to join us and meet the law makers, signing letters etc... If we have many active members we would have achieved something.

Every now and then i meet people who think/claim that UK/Aus/Canada/France/Germany are better places to live than US. They point at their labor policies, care for human rights, civil liberties such as gay rights etc. Recently heard that French people work the least # of hours in the world.
Despite of all the good things (in theory) in those countries, their racist attitude towards colored people make them less desirable than US. I have not been to EU/Aus but been to Canada at least a dozen times, and personally i feel US is a LOT BETTER country to live for colored people.
I don't understand how you're drawing a conclusion about Canadian racism based on racial profiling by a French airline. I am Canadian, and I can tell you that our policies and general attitudes towards foreigners are better BY FAR than those in the US.

I Feel that what USCIS will do next is not return any application back to sender but DUMP them in some backlog storage room like BEC center and people hAVE TO WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR VB in OCTOBER IN ORDER TO GET RECEIPT NUMBER BASED ON PD AND THEN THEY WILL GET EAD and AP. The only thing is one might save on INCREASE 485 FEES:eek:
I don't think uscis can do that. They can either accept applications or reject them. If they hold the applications for next 3 months, they would violate their long-term procedures and would fear a lawsuit because of that. They know that they are original documents in those applications that can be used once again...god knows when...

Is it not all about the bottomline?
Can any one of you as a single person make a difference? NO
Can WE as a group make a difference? YES and we have proved that.
Are WE focused as a group? Yes. In its entirety? No, and we will probably never be since we are a group.
This mess was not created by the guy with a PD of 2007 but by USCIS. So, you can hate USCIS all you want but what did the guy with PD2007 do. He just got lucky. He got lucky, plain and simple. Why should anybody feel bad about someone else's luck?
Come on guys, at least some of us are seeing the end of the light. Don't think I am PD 2007. My PD is Dec 2003. This is my fourth employer I am pursuing my GC with. I started working in 1997 and my first labor was filed in 1997. For various reasons I had to switch. I have seen all different cases. People who came in 2004 and got their GC by 2005. Is it fair? No, but it isn't the guy's fault. It is USCIS's and that's what we are trying to change. One issue at a time.
This was a can't miss opportunity caused by the USCIS foul-up. Nobody could miss out on pursuing this. Now that we are done with that, I am sure core will focus on other important issues like BEC victims etc.
Hope that helps. Peace!
