Following is Ron`s observation
.
There is an error in the initial explanation of the quota. As I read this analysis, they are suggesting that the single state limit is 25,620 - irrespective of whether the visas are issued in family or employment based. This suggests that a country with heavy family based demand, but light employment based demand, could use more than 7% of the EB or FB quota as long as they remained under 25,620 overall. This is wrong. The 7% limit applies independently to FB and EB. A country could have no demand in one area, and enormous demand in the other and the side with the excessive demand would still be limited to 7% of that quota - not 7% of the combined quota.
Also, I think that their estimates for China and India EB2 are too pessimistic.

Hi all,
Mine is a different situation, i was with my employer till mid of last year and did not inform him while leaving his company and joined another job (h1 transfer) he is now saying that the vendor did not pay him some money and i have to pay that amount and he is demanding that amount for my W-2.
He also said that he would take legal action if i didnot pay his losses ( i did not sign any document with him other than my h1b papers) no agreements,
I am going to call IRS after feb15, but is he going to go to court?
Please suggest me.
Thanks

Our receipt date is 9/10. No FP notices yet. Got EADs and APs well in time.
I opened SR for myself on 10/11 and my wife on 10/16. Exactly after 45 days, today I got 2 letters from them. There is no logic in what I see in them. Here are they:
Response to my SR: Our review indicates that this case is actually within our processing time. We regret any misunderstanding.If you don't recv a decision or notice of other action within our current processing time, check our website or call cust service. All returned documents will be re-mailed.
xmo217.
Response to spouse's SR: The status of the service request is :
Biometrics must be taken at the ASC in your area. When an appt. becomes available you will be notified by mail when and where to report. Please allow 4 months to receive your appt for biometrics.
Finally the real twist ..... We had an infopass appt at Dallas center last week.The IO asked me the purpose of the visit and I had informed her about our cases. She looked at our cases and said that our files are not yet opened. I was confused and upon my request to explain in detail, she said our files were not assigned to anyone and are with TSC. She suggested me to call USCIS Natioanl Cust serv and ask them to send a request for the files to be opened. I have never come across/read such a scenario. I got further confused and was wondering how come we got EADs and APs when our files were not "opened". There was no clearcut answer for that. She advised me to call them and quote that we visited Infopass and they advised us to call USCIS asking our files to be opened. I am not sure if this works or not.
But the greatest relief came at the end of the appt ....both of us got cleared in the background check. I am assuming that background check and name check are one and the same. Friends,Correct me if I am wrong.She said as of Oct 18th, we were cleared.
Looking at all these things, I am not sure how the process is taking place !
I haven't called USCIS yet as I thought that I would wait till 45 days are over since I opened SRs for FPs. Now it's over and I just got the responses for the SRs today.

Folks, can dependent's participate in writing letters to President? I have already mailed my hand written letter to White House and copy to IV team, in addition to that I got confirmation from other Indians with whom I work also mailed their letters..If dependents are also allowed then count for another 10 letters from my side...;)
Anybody can write letters. It does not have to be the affected alone. Friends, colleagues, US citizens, relatives.

From their tone, I can tell the were trying hard to be helpful.
But, no receipt for me yet. July 2nd filer here as well.
Should I keep another set of 485 application ready, just in case if I don't hear about check cashing or receipt till august 15th ?
Is there any harm in filing the 485 again (just to be safe).... IF I don't get any indication of action on july2nd app ?
This is paranoa!!!!!!!! STOP already

Dear Administrator (Pappu)...How should I contact you. I had previously emailed at info@immigrationvoice.org (on 4/20/2008) but did not get a reply.
Thanks for all the replies guys. Believe me I have tried everything possible to try and expedite this security check process. I contacted the news channels and news papers (ones you guys mentioned and more) but no one even dared to reply. I firmly believe that most of the media in India is extremely sympathetic to US and they do not want to disturb the status quo. Otherwise what can explain this complete lack of any news coverage given the number of people who are suffering. Please also read the security clearance tracker at http://murthyforum.atinfopop.com/4/OpenTopic?a=tpc&s=1024039761&f=4724019812&m=772108581
Given the number of people who have read these forums and documented their situation, you would assume that there must be at least one news item covering this situation. There is none whatsoever. Everyone on H1B is now afraid to go out of US and most of those people who wanted to or needed to get their passports stamped are thinking again. This essentially means nobody on H1B visa should think of visiting their families and friends outside US if they already do not have a visa stamp with sufficient time. Initially I thought mostly guys with muslim names are getting stuck but now it is confirmed that if your name is Amit Kumar forget about stamping as you will have to wait for 3 to at least 8 months. I have a hindu name and so do lot of others who are stuck. The situation I think became worse since January 2008 when most visa officers were asked to apply not only PIMS checks but also TAL checks strictly. So if your are a chemical engineer, biotechnologist (unfortunately I am engineer working for a biotech company) and any other job that a Master's level student (mostly with none IT degrees, but not necessarily so) can take in US, you will have to go through TAL check since every type of advanced skills job is listed in this TAL list. How dumb can the US government departments be by issuing such a list without adequate training of the visa officers to understand what represents a threat versus what represents some advanced skills work being done in US which will allow such work to remain in US.
I am extremely worried because I don't know what will happen to this backlog when newly issued 85000 H1b professionals will go for stamping.
Guys this situation needs urgent attention since DOS has started seeing every body with an H1B as a threat to the nation and this notion has to be dispelled. I am not saying that they should not apply TAL checks, but these should be applied to only those who are working on some really sensitive technology and to determine this DOS should have a technologist to review the resume of such a person rather than an Visa Officer. DOS doesn't even respond to my emails. My last hope is the US senator from my area that my company has contacted to help. But given the experience of others at the murthy forum, even this does not shake the mighty all knowing DOS.

you can get medicals in 2 hours.
Not sure if this is chicago/pittsburgh.
your only option is to find out by calling all numbers in chicago and pittsburgs.
People have flown in from various locations into chicago and got medicals in 2 hours.
also, ask your wife to get the immunization record of mmr and tetanus.
that will make your life easier.
x-ray is mandatory.
people, this is a fact.

Hopeful has a valid point when it comes to sending flowers to USCIS. I am not sure that will make any difference . Flowers will not change USCIS overnight but will get us some good media publicity .Yes when it comes to american or any other politics , money is an important factor and if you can hit money, all issues can be resolved. I wish India one day becomes such a prosperous country that immigration no longer is lucrative for Indians and none of our generations to come have to go through all this mess !!!!!!:D

I understand that is not a reliable source of tracking approval pattern, however, this is the only tracker we have available and this gives us fairly good idea about USCIS processing.
Based on , there are about 1200 Approvals for EB-2 (Including ROW, India and China) since Oct01 2007.
However, there are only 450 approvals for EB-3 (Including ROW, India and China) sine Oct01'2007.
So howcome they ran out of EB3 numbers when there are very few approvals for this year. I was hoping they will run out of EB2 numbers instead.
Any insight on this?
Thanks.
The samples used are not a true representative of the actual EB2 or EB3 population.

When did you receive the receipt notice?

Did your checks get cleared?
I believe YES, required checks were issue from the law firm's account, No personal.

what is this? there are delivered date and received date with received date before the delivered date. How can they receive before the delivery. Hmmm Did USCIS guys ran early morning 4 O Clock to UPS/ FED-EX/ ETC to receive the app before those guys attempted to deliver :) Even if someone says, "YES", there was 6 days difference between those two days. No idea what USCIS is doing.

Non-immigrants are routinely charged a hefty premium on mortgages and loans just based on the fact that their stay in the US is limited in time - irrespective of what your credit score and other usual risk assessment metrics have to say.
Bank of America is discriminating against non-immigrants by not leting then open self directed brokrage account. It's like going in to a store and store personal telling you that I cannot sell you gallon of milk because you are non immigrant.

Many states are "employment at will" states. This includes NY. You can say good bye that day and not turn up again (works both ways). Did you have leave owing and thus were simply using up paid leave before leaving him. If you did not sign a no-compete he doesn't have a leg to stand on, and even if you did no-compete contracts are often unenforceable because they go too far.
If you left without telling him and continued to draw salary that could be a problem.
If you are working for a customer that he still does business with, then speak with your managers. If you have a good relationship there the managers may put pressure on him -- like threaten to cancel his remaining contracts.
IRS explains in their FAQ what to do if you cannot get W2 (linked to earlier in this thread I think). DO NOT PAY A PENNY FOR IT! Do not accept an incorrect W2 either!
Better still go to a local IRS office and get advice. If you get a helpful IRS customer service rep, then ask to call your employer on a speaker phone with them present, imagine what IRS might do to him if they hear him on the phone attempting to blackmail you! I hear major audit coming! Or ask IRS to phone him there and then on your behalf, so they can ask for the W2 to be sent. If he dares tell them he won't send it he will find himself in a world of pain. The IRS do have a procedure, so they will likely send a demanding letter, woe is he who ignores such a letter.
Personally I would rather pick an argument with a police officer than an IRS representative. IRS has much more power put him in a world of pain than any other agency.
Customer service people are humans too, and I've found IRS customer service helpful before, be polite and they will advice they are going to hate the idea of someone being blackmailed for a W2, you might even "make their day".

thanks for your supportive words for CP filers now CP filers need some relief as they are not able to get an EAD/AC21. I think we could ask to allow CP filers to file 485 with out having dates current and conserdering their CP filing date to get EAD and AC21.
Thanks everybody we need your support to come out of this situation.
Sorry to say but it seems a tough call. I will not pin my false hopes on this.
I feel Eb2 will move very fast by Oct. than any possible change in law.
