The four immigration programs set to expire September 30th - the religious workers, EB-5 regional centers, E-Verify and the Conrad 30 J-1 program - have been given another month of life as part of a continuing resolution that will give House and Senate conferees more time to complete work on the Department of Homeland Security spending bill.

Not sure how this lawfirm obtained the bulletin, but here is the link //
Pederson Immigration Law Group, P.C. - Priority Dates Progress - September Visa Bulletin Announced! (http://www.usvisainfo.com/content/view/166/1/)
My lawyer and I discussed visa bulletin earlier this evening. She mentioned that some of the consulates (Mmbai, Chennai) get the bulletin a day prior to release in the United States. It is quite likely there will be formal publication of the bulletin tomorrow.

That should be a typo, Definitely this is the total volume of EB 485 pending at all office.
Just check the Texas Service volume trending as of July 2010 which shows less that 130k I-485 at various stages as opposed to more than 168k EB 485 pending from the inventory.:D
Thanks for looking into it, looking at the numbers what you said makes perfect sense. However we know how USCIS works (if they do). :confused:
It will be interesting to see how immigrationvoice's green card wait calculator comes up utilizing this latest inventory data.

I guess you are right. It should at least stay the same since there is no new demand reported.
It is only going to go forward when you calculate the pending cased from May thru December of 2006, it is around 13,600, so it should not retrogress and may move forward? By how much? I am not sure, but it will definitely not retrogress!

At least at Oakland FP center I only provided FP notice and my DL (those are the only things needed according to biometric appointment receipt). They did not ask for anything else. I took my passport along for just in case but I didn't see anyone using passports.
I read another post on some mailing list where they had difficulty locating someone's application and asked for passport. This person did not carry it so it took a little longer to locate it but they were still able to get finger printed eventually.
The only documents that I thought we should take is the FP Notice and Photo ID either a passport or a DL. Is there any other immigration documents that we need to carry, not quite sure when you say immi papers + passport for scrutiny. Can you please clarify this, appreciate it very much!!

People like you encourage many of us. I do not have the money, but I will be there as well (WHATEVER IT TAKES).
We need to pull together to make this happen. We need to STAND up for ourselves. None else will!!
Please people lets pull together on Sep 18th, this one day could change the rest of our lives.
Thank you Blessing&Lifeisbeautiful - There is a thread matching people who want to go but can't afford to, and people who will sponsor others to go in their place. This might ease your financial burden.
Everyone needs to realize how important that it is that we get large numbers turning out at the rally.
Please all come!

Hi Guys,
What does everyone on here think about sending flowers to the Congressional Hispanic Counsel members ONLY and publicize that event like we did last year.
.......
Interesting idea, it will definitely work out to pay attention of politicians.

I have been in Australia for the last two years on account of a job-related posting of my wife down here and we applied for Aus perm residency as a back-up to the US GC (though fortunately we got our GC during the last months of FY2007-08, through CP). Here are my 2 cents related to Aus immigration and the country in general.
The application process is relatively straightforward and can be self-sponsored, especially if you have the requisite points which is easy if (a) you have the 'in-demand' skill sets (which can be found at the immigration website ), (b) are younger than 35 and (c) score high on the English language test (ELTS). Note that both you and your spouse will have to sit for IELTS.
The one bothersome aspect is that unless you have undergrad degree from US/UK/certain other European countries, you need to undergo skill assessment, where you have to write a long essay about your skills and qualification and have it endorsed by the relevant licensing authority in Australia. It is not a biggie, but just a pain to write all that stuff.
Immigration process is easier if you have a job offer and the company sponsors you - I have known instances where such cases were approved in 1-2 weeks (one friend was going to work on something related to Australian defence and he was approved in 2 days!!), or if you are a physician/certain other skills working in non-metro areas. In some states, especially Victoria, the state can also sponsor you, but I dont think it makes the process much faster and there are requirements to stay in the state for 2 years.
Regarding our own experience, we applied with my wife (an Engineer) as the principal applicant last year around April/May. We had enough points and everything and we used an immigration agent - however, we are yet to hear anything positive. This January we got an e-mail saying that her profession had been put on a fast-track for approval, but still no news and it is getting close to an year.
My own idea is that given the recession, Aus immigration is in no hurry to approve cases now. In fact, they have recently cut back on the number of skilled-immigration approvals. A year ago, everything was fine, and due to the mining boom here, demand outstripped supply for all kinds of engineers, both IT and non-IT. With the world economy down, jobs being lost here - the situation has changed. The Australians are much more protectionist than Americans, and are very wary of foreigners taking their jobs in this economy. I work in the academia where it is different, and my wife works in non-IT (Mech Engineering) sector, so I am not totally sure how the situation is in IT, finance, marketing etc.
To summarize: compared to the US GC, the application process is easier, wait is theoretically shorter, but be a little careful in this recession economy and make sure there are jobs here before taking the plunge.
Btw, our cost was about Aus$5000-6000, including the immigration agent fee. Plus it was about Aus$700 for the IELTS tests for both of us.
Although you did not specifically ask, regarding life-style in Australia: the people here are usually very laid-back (work week consists of 37 hrs, with defined tea breaks!), love to be out in the beach or bars after work and drink beer/wine (yes, the stereotype is somewhat true), but they are usually efficient in what they do. The pace of life is certainly different from the US. However, cost-of-living is slightly higher, especially since you are pretty much forced to live in the major cities, where real estate is quite expensive. It was through the roof last year, but it is starting to fall a bit. Grocery items are usually almost double the price, gas ('petrol') is significantly more expensive, and car prices are laughably high ( you will find most people driving smaller, fuel-efficient cars). I would say that cost-of-living is slightly higher than major US cities like Boston, SF, NYC etc.
Overall, we have enjoyed our stay in Australia, but will be going back to the US (yes, even in this economy) because I still feel that even now, the best future prospects are still in the US (or perhaps, India). The mining boom, fulled by development in India and China, has been a major pusher of Aus economy, but IMHO, they do not have much to fall back on e.g Biotech/IT - Singapore, China and India will probably beat them in those industries. But that is just my own opinion. YMMV.
Hope this has helped. Feel free to PM if you need more information.

After I was not 100% about the advice of my company's lawyer, I talked to Rajiv Khanna about this on a paid phone consultation, and my post above is based on his advice. You can keep changing locations. As long as your job description does not change, you should be fine.
hmm...that's very interesting. i think in my friend's company was closing down the office where the original LC was filed, which meant that there would be no future job available at the location if the GC continued to get processed. I think that may be the reason his company asked him to file a different LC with a new priority date.
Do you agree with my assessment of my friend's situation? I will have to inform him of your situation.

I got an excellent performance review.I have a copy of the performance appraisal. so they cannot justify that my performance was not good.
I really appreciate all your comments. Thank you all for your time and valuable suggestions.
I am going to start looking for jobs now and negotiate that my future employer start the filing process after 90 days if not sooner.
Thank you all again.
Your employer has used the words "Will determine..." so you can not do much so forget it as a nightmare of your life. Go on with next job. Best Luck.

Your position is 3686 in the Green Card Queue based on your Country of Chargeability "India", Priority Date "Feb-04" and Category "EB3" .

(*based on data from USCIS website September 2009)
Result for patiently_waiting:

I can understand how the tracker gave 24486 based on pdf provided by USCIS recently.
How the tracker provides 3686 based on my prioority date ?
Can someone please explain ?
Thanks a lot.
FOIA response is b4 mass preadjudication USCIS update is more current therefore after the ongoing pre-adjudication. remember they had no clue of the numbers till they actually preadjudicated right? I know its sad but that is the only explanation.
1) Also don't be surprised if the number increases in the coming months as more get pre adj.
2) Another thing to mention here is there are people who are of older PDs but because of misc reasons did not file their I485.
3) Also my guess is this does not contain the number of people in Consular processing.
So even this calculation is not foolproof.

re gcharry;2513391]Guys, I have a 3 year degree and 15 years of experience. Do I qualify for porting to EB2? Thank you and appreciate anyone's reply.
Sadly my friend the chances of scrutiny and denial are high with a 3 degree
From your PD i am assuming that you have EAD so enjoy that freedom and looking at the bright side more EB3 port more the EB3 line will clear before you.
