# USCIS has just released their tally of cap filings as of 04/04/2007, Wednesday. In two days (04/02 and 04/03), they received 133,000 unique pieces of mail containing H-1B petitions, which turned out to be lower than 150,000 which they had initially reported. They reached the updated number following a physical count of the mail. Each piece of mail may contain more than one H-1B petition and it will take USCIS a substantial amount of time to open and sort through that volume of mail. It is a good news in a way that at the end, the total may turn out to be less than guestimate in the community and the rate of odds for winning in the lottery may be much more promising than the one initially anticipated in the rumors.
# As of Wednesday, total they sorted out and each type of cases identified were as follows:
* Total Sorted Out: 32,755
* General cap cases: 28,052
* U.S. Master or higher degree cases: 4,703
# The USCIS promises to update report from time time as they continue to sort out the remaining packages.

holy cow..if the visas are already U for this Month..
I am thinking about the probability of the officer opening my case next month and then approving the case? I cant see that happening anyway..
Very near yet so far..I guess now I clearly understand what that means. :cool:
Good luck to all of you for your GCs ;)
What does it mean that EB2 numbers became unavailable as of Aug 21st? !!!!!
The Sept Visa bulletin (http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_4328.html) states that India EB2 cutoff date is 01 Aug 06 !!
If the visa numbers are indeed exhausted, then, the Sept Visa bulletin will be INCORRECT ! and the USCIS/DOS has to redact the Sept bulletin !!! Sounds like another fiasco brewing to me ! Call it EB2-I Fiasco ! You heard it first here. :)
Would be interesting to see how one can legally corner USCIS with proper evidence that they bungled up. They could always keep all cases in pending state , saying they are still processing/waiting for data, examining details etc, and not have to approve any EB2 cases in the month of Sept..... But would be very difficult to hide it from public and AILA etc...
They could then wait until Oct so new numbers get allotted, and then they can adjust EB2-I cutoff dates more carefully at that time.... gimme_GC2006 pray to god that , come oct bulletin, EB2-I does not retrogress beneath your PD ! All my best wishes to you.

Sorry Guys I am asking this question in different threads , as I am unable to conclude any solution for this problem..:o
Let's assume B entered into US on Jan 1st 2004 with Visa stamping Valid till June 2006.
B doesn't have payslips for period of 185 days(aggregate) in his whole stay in US , rest of the time he maintains legal status , but he never travels outside US and applies for his 485 in March 2006.
In this case B is under risk of illegal status for more than 180 days , as he never travelled outside US.
OK agreed , when it's a law we should abide by them.But what are the other options available for B? He can't be covered under 245(K) so this option is ruled out.He needs to forget about GC? Will it be helpful if he contacts good lawyer any hope? Or just rely on luck?

Thanks a lot to all members for being with us in this struggle. We have tasted our first big success this year. Credit goes to each and every IV member. We were all affected by the visa bulletin fiasco and this is our victory. This is a victory for all our members and we must rejoice.
IV had worked very hard and had been pushing for this in the background. Our flower campaign, rally and other advocacy efforts all came together and helped us at a crunch time. We thank members that sent flowers and also walked in the San Jose heat for 4 hours. All that really shows our commitment to this cause.
We are happy that our efforts are successful and IV has been able to make a difference. Please also know that during this effort, IV was extremely active and decision makers heard our voice. We cannot give out all the details but what IV members should know is that these efforts should make each one of us proud and what we can do if we have a firm resolve. We were also the first to break this news even before anyone else or media could, and continued to update our members as time passed.
IV also thanks its contributing members and it is because of their contributions we were able to continue this effort. Many thanks to the members that are contributing now after this good news.
Please continue your support for this organization and be an integral member of this ever growing community, so that this journey can continue and we can end retrogression and have immigrationvoice as our voice.

Thanks Pappu...Kudos to you and the whole team....

I was hoping the date to be somewhere around March 2005. That would have taken care of all Backlog Elimination Center cases.
- Current dates show that there were a lot of BEC cases to be approved.
- Now, dates might struggle a bit to reach April 2005.
- Dates should move faster after that till end of 2005 as there were very few cases that went through PERM in 2005.
- Again, in 2006 the Dates might move slow till......we reach last FY month overflow in Sept 2010.

I think USCIS actions are too random . I do not think they want to see the real projections or the real demands. If they wanted to , believe me it should not have been difficult at all. Nevertheless, the first step towards that would be asking for transparency. The letter and poster campaign can do that.
I agree!! What the few of us gathered here are trying to accomplish is to get the USCIS to FOLLOW THE RULES.
We are SICK of the monthly visa bulletin RANDOMNESS. We are not demanding our GCs to be approved immediately. We want transparency so that we can MAKE PLANS and get on with our lives.
WHY THE HELL can they not produce a figure for the number of pending cases in each category? They just pull figures (with a wide margin of error AND subject to correction) out of their BACKSIDES!

I have canceled 8/24 appointment and plan on taking appointment during first week of September. Los Angeles USCIS have plenty slot available, so taking it easy in taking appointment.
Sure will post my experience.
Hi ruchigup: Could you please update on how your infopass appt went on moday. My attorney said that we could take infopass even now, they(IOs) might keep our case in the queue ready for review for GC in September. But, not quite sure if they (IOs) would really do something abt it in August.

I think you should consider accepting stories of those you have yet to start their GC process. This gives another perspective, to tell people that even those who are highly qualified and experienced are in two minds whether to file for GC or not. Why this thought? this is because the delays and long wait acts as a deterent. End of the day, if these people are already frustrated at the onset, then they may decide to leave US and seek opportunities elsewhere, leading to loss of such valuable talent to the US. This was explicitly highlighted in yesterday's Judiciary Committee presentations by the four Economists.
While accepting stories from those waiting for GC, please also accept stories from those who are apprehensive of filing due to the delays, hence conveying a reason that US risks losing highly skilled workers should these circumstances continue.
These are my thoughts!

I think it all boils down to this scenerio
you have a seriously injured uninvited person in your front lawn about to die. what are you gonna do ?
Some people would want that 'problem' to go away and some would want to help the person. Our actions make what we are ..
BTW if anyone is interested, child birth generates 9 dols (measure of pain) of pain and at 10 dols a person dies. 9 dols is maximum pain a human being can suffer.
Take your pick.

Guys,
Please DO NOT vote "Yes" if you are not intending to contribute $25 for this cause. Whoever enters yes, I will pursue and make sure we get contribution before 31st March. Please make sure you send me PM with your contact information if not paying withing a week.
Please please please, do not put junk on this forum. Keep bumping up anyways.
Core, no offense meant, but please don't shy voting on this. I usually don't see core voting, understandable but keep this as an exception.
P.S.
How to donate:
1. Look at top of the thread. There is a donation bar with green progress bar.
2. Click on a link "Donate Now"
3. This will redirect you to donation selection page. Please select type of your contribution. You may choose recurring subscription for multiple months or if you want to make one time contribution, please select subscription for 1 month.
4. Click Donate. This will redirect you to pay pal secured page. You may choose your pay pal account or pay by credit card over here. You may see your name as user on pay pal page.
5. Submit payment.
6. Page will show you reference number. Please copy and paste of this thread - Optional but recommended.
7. You will receive an email from IV about payment confirmation. Your status will be changed to "Donor" from Junior / Senior member. You will not status as donor if you are IV Admin - kidding :).
Update from Pappu:
As everyone is aware of the FOIA letters we have received from USCIS. We requested everyone to fax/email us the USCIS letter.
Here is an update on IV plans and what we know till now:
On Friday, during the discussions with USCIS, we came to know that that there is a backlog of FOIA requests and currently they are clearing FOIA requests they received in 2007. We also know from the letter that the report wll not have 'country of chargeability' info. This is a critical info that we ought to have. Even after paying 5K to USCIS, over one year wait time to get the FOIA request completed will be unacceptable to the community.
In light of these developments we have explored other options to get this data and use the copies of replies we get as an example how badly we need this data to get accurate picture of the size and breakdown of the current backlog, so that we can all know how long we need to wait in the current system, if nothing changes. We would also ideally like such data to be always available and updated for public periodically.
Our first option is that we put in effort to get this data without having to pay $5K to USCIS. We will also try to get the data much sooner rather than all of us wait for more than a year.This could be possible via advocacy effort and our initial discussions on this subject have been promising. We will pursue this and if we do not make much progress until the deadline then we may pay 5K and still pursue the advocacy option to get the data faster. Thus we need more than 5K to proceed with these parallel options. The advocacy effort will also be an ongoing task beyond the first month. Thus we request members to sign up for recurring payment option to support this initiative and any other initiative we undertake for the community.
We have added a paypal module on the top of each page with a target amount. Members can use this fresh tool added to IV website to contribute. We prefer if members contributing to the effort on recurring monthly basis for a long term support of IV efforts. All members who contribute through this system will also have access to special 'Contributor's Forum' on the IV website.
Thank You for your effort and contribution for building a stronger community.

Here is my employment history.
1/1/2001 - Enter USA with H1B from Company A
1/30/2001 - Offer letter from Company B (No pay checks from Company A)
2/9/2001 - Started working for Client via Company B (Got Pay checks from Company B)
4/2/2001 - Received H1B receipt for Company B
5/25/2001 - H1B approval notice with validity till Jan 2004
Nov 2001 - H1B Transfer Approved for Current Employer
Feb 2003 - Re entry to USA
Oct 2004 - Re entry to USA
1. I am out of status till 4/2/2001 or May 2001?
2. In G-325A, Should I be reporting employment from Feb 2001 or Apr 2001 for Employer B?
3. Since I am with my current employer for more than 5 years, can I give this information when requested from USCIS?
Any help appreciated
Thanks

In that case I would say go for PhD. Directly file GC under EB1 - no hassle no retrogression :)
Myth: Phd's do not automatically qualify for EB1
Fact/Reality: Lot of Phd's on the forum are in EB2.

Your PD is not yet current.
If they have issued GC to you, it was a mistake and you should report it to USCIS to avoid future problems.
There were several discussions on this forum about this issue.
Report to USCIS ASAP that you have been approved by mistake.
I thought with PD of 2004 by now you should be well aware of how Visa bulletins work. :confused:
Either you went into hibernation after filing for your GC back in 2004 or you are just faking your profile.
If your PD was current, but they didn't give you a visa, that is a mistake. Why should someone report getting a visa is a mistake? He applied for the visa, he/she got it. Is it his/her job to watch USCIS? What future problems should he/she expect for getting a visa?
Further, it is great mis-impression that everyone who applies for a GC watches visa bulletins, or knows how they work. I for one, knew nothing about visa bulletins, or EB1,2,3 etc. until the Washington rally. When my LC was filed, I only knew that my GC has been filed, and it would take years. At that time, even until recently, I never even expected a GC would come before I would decide to go back. There is a higher percentage of those who don't watch VB than those who do. I know many in my circle, who are waiting for GC but never bother about VB. Some don't even have emails. Perhaps VB watching is more prominent among computer guys.

Lets concentrate on Iv action items..This is not an IV endorsed effort.
This is probably not endorsed by IV. But the idea is to support one of the efforts endorsed by IV!
One of the IV endorsed effort is creating a media blitz. Our hope is that this will work towards creating that media interest!
