IV is not an Indian organization. If this is one of the reasons why few non-indian members are not making donations then please re-consider your decision and start donating.
Also let us not dillute our fight by expanding the fight to include other problems. Once we achieve desired results, we can continue to pick up other problems and lead the fight.
--sri
What part of my post indicated that I had not donated?! I was responding to claims that other nationalities affected have not stepped up and offered their time to help, in response to some one else's claim in this thread. I also suggested that the media tends to report what it wants to and this is not necessarily the full truth.
As a side note, you try pursuading people to join up here that don't fit into the demographic most vocal on this forum (i.e. anyone that is not Indian)... Which, incidently, is the group that I know and interact with (i.e. greencard applicants that are not Indian), and try and pursuade them that this group represents them too, when half of the posts say (paraphrasing) "well, its only the indian and chinese group that faces problems". I can guarantee you that this is extremely tricky when you ask people to see beyond the bias on a forum and pony up their cash.
It is this very reason, that when I see a thread that could be read negatively by this demographic, I do my best to remind people to be sensitive of this fact. How would you feel if you were being begged to contribute money, and then told that this issue doesn't affect you (which has happened to me)? Every single person on this forum needs to realize that, and I'm NOT talking about the core team, they do a fantastic job and acknowledge every single person's issues regardless of nationality, but does every single poster here?
srikondoji, you will also notice that the FBI name check is part of the IV agenda. There have been multiple posts regarding this. There is even a headline currently posted on the front page about this very issue.

I have two 797s: one which is current valid till June 2007 and the other from July '07 till July '10 (using my approved I140). I am going for visa stamping this March at Chennai consulate. Can they combine both my 797s and stamp me till 2010 or they'll do it only till June 2007?

It is good idea. I discussed this my lawyer and according to him, nowadays USCIS is very strict about it and trying to match the requirements of EB2 against the candidate's credentials. If it perfectly matches only they will approve. It will be an option for those guys with EB3 with PD past 2005 and with enough EB2 credentials, primarily a masters degree and if it from US, then great.
Please do not go into this option just by stating that I have 100 years experience with such and such company. I will say, if your are a masters degree holder (from US the best) and is employed with a major employer for more than 3-5 years, then only attempt this. Do not try it if you are employed with some Desi company. This is harm both the candidate and the employer.
My two cents worth!!!
My lawyers opinion was completely opposite to yours. It does not harm the employee nor the employer in any way. If it did then employer would never agree to it in the first place. Also, there is no effect on the existing EB3 application. There are numerous lawyers like Murthy and Ron Gotcher who have written articles on the ease with which this process is possible and published their success stories.
Maybe its time you got a new lawyer and maybe its time you posted your details on your profile.

Useful info from Murthy.com
If anyone faces similar situation they should try to withdraw to avoid 5 year ban
The Murthy Law Firm has received several reports and learned of instances in which H1B employees were sent back home to India after the Christmas / New Year holiday from various airports, particularly Newark, NJ, and JFK in New York, NY. We at the Murthy Law Firm will be contacting both AILA national and the CBP office in Newark and New York. Our effort is to gain clarification and determine the basis for sending H1B employees back to India (or other home countries), and, if this is due to an error of judgment or law, we will seek a reversal of this recent, alarming trend. In addition, a related January 8, 2010 memorandum from the USCIS analyzes the definition of "employer" and "employee" particularly for H1B employees working at third-party client sites. While these two actions may not be related, both demonstrate the current level of government scrutiny of the H1B program. Hence, each employer and employee should operate by strictly following the H1B program requirements.
�MurthyDotCom
We will need to review the events and the USCIS's evolving definitions of relevant laws to determine short, intermediate, as well as long-term lawful solutions to deal with this issue. If an H1B employee accepts expedited removal / deportation (with the government paying the cost of the airline ticket) from the CBP officer, removal may result in a minimum 5-year bar on reentering the United States. If an H1B employee indicates to the CBP officer at the airport that s/he is requesting a withdrawal to enter the United States (and return home on the next flight at one's own expense), s/he is able to apply for a new H1B visa stamp either with the same or a new H1B employer and reenter the U.S. within a few days / weeks.
�MurthyDotCom
We at the Murthy Law Firm will continue to share useful information that we believe will help you to plan your travel or when you change H1B employers.

I received an RFE too in Nov 1st week. It was about the evaluation. (It was submitted earlier but still) Lawyer mailed them the required document and now the status has changed to "We received your response to the request on Nov 14th and the case processing has resumed".
How many days does it take them now to make a decision? (Btw I am EB3 and my 140 submission date was Nov 2006)

Nobody from IV has prevented people from other countries from speaking up. On the contrary, multinationalism is only encouraged to give a global face to this issue. But, I don't see anyone from outside India/China bolstering IV's efforts. Why don't they step up and join the core team?
Not true, I'm sure I am not the only IV member that falls outside the Indian or Chinese nationality group that has stepped up and has been contacted for help
Don't mistake sloppy media reporting for lack of incentive by anyone :)

Mahatma Gandhi, bless his soul, had the balls to stand up and fight back. On the other hand, majority of our community live in the fear of their own shadows. We should stop comparing our sorry selves to that great man when we lack an atom of the courage he had.
We don't want to goto DC Rally in March as it's too cold. Summer is too hot and in the spring we have family vacations planned. We deserve the punishment we are receiving for our inaction.

BTW did you have any LUD before this, or straightaway approval was the first update?
Never had any LUD's after July 2007.
Got cards and approval notice in mail on Friday (April 17th ).
Funny to read the printed material came with the card. It had info on how to settle down in the united states ( how to get SSN, get apartment, find a job ?? , etc etc ). It is ironic to read this on my 10th anniversary in this country.. one happy ending I guess ;))

Please help me. There is no LUD on my status online. I had my finger printing done on sept 19. CODE 3. For both my husband and me!! I don't see any updates on the status online. Can someone tell me what I should do? FBI says they sent the prints the same day!!!!
Am I stuck in Name check already?? How do you know this?????
I called customer care USCIS, they say they don't have information regarding finger prints and you don't see updates regarding fingerprinting online. Is this true?
PLEASE HELP. YOUR ADVICE WILL BE VALUABLE TO ME IMMENSELY
OK. If you read my posts I'm in the same boat, no LUD after FP. I called FBI finger print number and verified the results were sent to USCIS the same day. I didn't call USCIS. I was also worried like you about getting stuck in Name check. I joined the Yahoo Name check group and one kind individual answered my question (thanks John). See below.
FP and namecheck are independent.
a)FP checks
your fingerprints against FBI fingerprint
databases and the result comes back within couple
of days (or maybe even one day).
b)fbi namecheck
compares all combinations of your name
against FBI national namecheck program database
(86 million records).
This one comes back faster (they say less
than 6 months) if there are
no hits , but if there is some hit ....then
human person needs to clear all hits by requesting
copy of the paper documents from any /all
of the 250 FBI offices across USA . So this
is time consuming process and some of us have
been waiting for over one year , two years , three
years etc.
the LUD thing has no significance. you cannot
interpret much from lud and it causes
unnecessary anxiety . some people don't get any
luds from receipt date until approval.
try a service request first to find out if your
namecheck is pending .if you get a letter saying
"processing of your 485 is delayed because
investigation into your background remains open"
or something like that , then it means the namecheck
could be pending !

The large drop in competitiveness (is that a word?) in the U.S. is largely attributed to the immigrant population posting to message boards during work hours!
So true. If the retrogression was not there, people will spend their time on other constructive issues.

My dear friends,
The contact information of all the members of the House Subcommittee on Immigration Policy and Enforcement has been given below. Kindly send letters (preferably signed letters instead of emails) requesting them to kindly also include the EB category immigrants waiting in the line for a very long time. Kindly note that we as a community should help ourselves. Every attempt is worth the effort. If we do not write they will not even think of us. If 10,000 letters reach them, atleast they will discuss our case. Hope all our friends will cooperate and send simple one page letters to all members without any delay. THis is a GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY and all the members in the committee are Republicans.
In my experience, it is best to meet with these offices personally first and then start the letter campaign (if IV approves it). Merely sending the letters does not provide the chance to know if the letters were read, or if the office understands the problem we are talking about or if they have any questions........
Please meeting with these lawmaker offices a priority....
