Option# 1 is better as there is trace of application being submitted and a receipt number to follow up with. With option# 2, you will never know how USCIS is treating your request.

Good news for your guys. I am EB3 but recently my labor got approved in EB2 and very soon I am going to port PD from old labor. :DHa..:Dha..:Dha..You can�t stop me and very soon I am going to stand in front of you in EB line.
How come you couldn't file in eb2 in the first place? Not a personal statement, but I'm still trying to understand this matter.

yes it is(both about work and supervision), read the pdf.
The L-1 Reform Act amends previous legislation by addressing the issue of “outsourcing.” L-1B temporary workers can no longer work primarily at a worksite other than their petitioning employer if the work will be controlled and supervised by a different employer or if the offsite arrangement is essentially to provide labor for hire, rather than service related to the specialized knowledge of the petitioning employer. This limitation will apply to all L-1B petitions filed with USCIS on or after June 6, 2005. This includes extensions and amendments involving individuals currently in L-1 status.
as IV community we must be against these violations. We must support only the compliance L1B.
I stand corrected.
Thanks for this, Simple1. I will get more details on this from my friends from legal area.
Somehow, it seems that this line, if the offsite arrangement is essentially to provide labor for hire, could have some escape route.
Thanks again. (Green from me)

On what basis you are saying that Oct'2008 PD will be similar to Jun'2007. Didn't you read the note in Sep'2008 VB that PD for EB3 category will retrogress further.
If you cann't support EB3 community then at least don't misguide people here. EB3-I is in severe pain right now and people like you can't understand it.
The EB-3 the Visa bull is talking about is that of EB-3 other workers not for general EB-3 category..
In Jul07 they gave away lots of Visa to EB-3 so from earlier years they may not be much EB-3's left..I am guessing..so it may actually start off at Mid of 03..

Hi All-
Any ideas where can I get the latest specs for the individual photos (I485 filing purpose). I searched the web but couldn't find a USCIS document. I heard they no longer accept the 75 degree looking face.
Thanks in advance.

05/17/2007: USCIS Terminates 05/18/2007 PPS for Labor Certification Substitution I-140 Petitions
USCIS announced today that beginning on Friday, May 18, 2007, it will terminate Premium Processing Service for Form I-140 petitions that request labor certification substitution. USCIS anticipates a substantial increase in the number of petitioning employers that will file Form I-140 petitions requesting Premium Processing Service and seeking labor certification substitution prior to July 16, 2007. The volume of such petitions filed requesting Premium Process Service is expected to exceed USCIS� capacity to provide the Premium Process Service according to the program guidelines.

There have been threads and posts about IOs indicating that everyone will become current. The fact of the matter is - there is no substance/proof/backing - even from the lawyers regarding the validity of those statements. For all you know, this might have been started by groups/people who want us to become complacent.
So DO call.............else the bills stand a good chance of losing out.
And even assuming the rumors are true with a 0.00001% probability.........you don't really lose anything much by calling. But if you don't call, we still stand a chance (with 99.9999% probability) of losing out.
Honestly; this might be our last chance. If the next president is a Democrat, it is quite possible that illegals might get amnesty in huge numbers. Companies hiring H1s might get taxed at a higher rate. Irrespective of who comes to power, the next president could clamp down on legal immigration in the name of Change. Remember, the illegals (their legal relations) form a larger vote bank. Nothing else matters as far as politicians are concerned.

I have sent the letters today to WH and IV.
I have also sent group emails to my batchmates from my engg college asking them to join IV. I think everyone should do that - this will help IV to Increase its Memberships.
I had one more suggestion too - (this has recd less support in the past).
we need to put in a statement that many legals are not buying a house because of the uncertainity in the GC process. even the congressmen will be more patient with our cause when we mention housing.

Vonage has a contract of 1 year. Have to pay around $100 if you break the contract.
Lingo has a contract for 2 years. Will have to pay a similar contract break fee for Lingo as well.
Monthly charges for world plan: Lingo is cheaper than vonage
Voice quality: Vonage is slightly better than Lingo. Lingo is ok too.
Customer service: Vonage is better than Lingo
Contract Period: Vonage 1 year. Lingo 2 years
Plan selections: Lingo has more plan selections.
Cheapest plan: Lingo $7.95/month for 250 minutes america plan. Vonage $17.99/month for 500 minutes US plan
I just switched from Teleblend to Vonage. This is the first time and don't have any experience with them. I talked with them yesterday and their customer service is connected immediately and they are good (for now atleast). I was a lingo customer long back (before sunrocket) and their customer service is horrible. I tried to switch to lingo when Sunrocket was closed and had a bad experience with customer service rep that time too. I decided not to go with lingo ever (what every offer they have). I may consider go back to teleblend, if they have a good deal OR any problem with Vonage.

Well, all the jobs you mentioned in your message now falls in Zone 4 i.e. Eb3.
Only option that person may have now is to change career altogether in the fields where desi consulting companies do not operate.
Its not so simple though. Even after finding a good company to stick to, you should not make up your mind to remain stagnant. When you work for about 5 years, you will be faced with a situation where you are asked to take on more responsibility.
The way things are with the current process, if you want to progress in your career and take on a new challenge (eg: database programmer to a DBA/architect), that would require a new LCA since there is a significant change in the responsibilities.
Also at big companies, there are several lines of businesses which are structured as if they are companies by themselves. If you want to shift between LOBs within the same big company, that would also require a new LCA.

(1) - (2) - (3) gives the spill over from EB2 ROW to EB2 (I&C), which is 1,426Which means EB2 ROW to EB2 I&C spill over is mere 1,426 ???? Hope we are wrong... this looks scary...
53,872 ( EB2 Total allocation in 2010 ) = Some X (EB2 ROW usage is say X) + 19,961 ( Total India received in 2010) + 6,505( Total China's received in 2010)
==>> X =[B] 53,872 -19,961-6,505 ==> X= 27406
==>> So Total EB2 ROW usage in 2010 is = 27,406
-----------------
1)EB2 I & C Usage = 19,961+ 6,505 = 26466.
2)Visas due to Spill Over for EB2 I & C = 26466 - 5,604 (EB2 (I&C) Regular quota {2*(40,040*7%)} ) = 20,862
3) Visas due to spill over for EB2 India only in 2010 = 26,466 (EB2 I & C Usage ) - 2,802(EB2-I Regular quota {40,040*7%} ) - 6,505 (EB2 China Total Usage) = 17,159.
-------------------
1) In 2011 according the USCIS statement we are getting 12,000 spill over visas in MAY.
Out of that about 10,000 will be allocated to India.
Reason: India PD based on April bulletin = 08 May 2006,
China PD Based on April bulletin = 22 Jul 2006
India has to get cleared 3 months (May Jun and Jul) before the spill over allocated to China.
The average demand for EB2 India is about 1.5k/Month.
which takes 3*1.5 = 4.5 K visas.
The remaining Visas = 7.5 K
The average demand for EB2 China is about 700/ Monnth.
The Total demand for EB2 India & China together from Aug 2006 will be about 2.2k/Month.
So 7.5K will clear about 3.5 months of EB2 I&C from Aug 2006.
So The May bulletin takes the EB2 I & C to November 2006 Or December 2006 as we also get the regular monthly quota of 2*(40,040*7%)
-------
Just my assumption. God only knows how USCIS moves the dates in May.

This is what i am doing to call a cell phone or any land line in india. Vonage has a call forwarding feature. Simply log in to your vonage account and go to features and configure the call forwarding feature.Configure such that the call is forwarded after 20 sec's. Intially vonage rings and after that it is forwarded to the india cell or landline forwarding number. Its free of charge as calling from vonage to india #'s is free. Hope this puts the debate to rest.
Why do I need to do all this stuff to call india cell or landline I can do that as such directly through vonage device. My question is how do we call from our mobile to india mobile through vonage. Lingo gives the feature of calling from your mobile number to an indian landline but not indian mobile. I am not sure if your way solves this problem.

Aright: I spoke with a person at NJ Senator Robert Menendez's office. She mentioned about lots of Calls/Mails and Faxes about Green Card Backlogs have been received.
I've faxed them regarding the same and hoping to get response, if not then next week will do a follow-up call.
Also mailed the letter to DOS and NJ Representatives from congress.org.
If possible will definitely meet Senator Robert Menendez.

If someone is a customer of Teleblend, they should contact them and ask them to provide a matching world plan service. Or else you and your friends will switch to Vonage. You will be surprised how fast teleblend will come up with a better plan than Vonage. In this country customer is the king. Vonage is trying to tie you up with an yearly plan. Wait and get Teleblend or other company to give you a better deal and you will save more money. Vonage is banking on being the first and capturing the market for 1 year before others give a better deal. It had to do it because people were switching to Teleblend, Omma or MagicJack. Now it is time for customers to contact these company senior executives and ask them to give you a good plan if they want you to stick with the company.
For now Vonage is good plan for who call India frequently and costumer service is good (atleast when you are their costumer). This will at least create some competition among the VOIP companies and Indian calling card companies. When some body comes with a better plan or service or Vonage is not doing good than we can switch to other. Competition like this between companies only consumers (like us) gets benefit.

I found 3 umar kaidis. (14 yrs is a life term in indian penal system).
Who is the senior most of these 3?
