The best thing to happen to immigration lawyers is H1 quota increase. That starts a whole chain of events that will generate revenue for them until the guy on H1 is citizen.
Getting people GC faster could only serve the revenue generated from filing I-485, but then retrogression does not eliminate it, it only delays it.
Lawyers hired by my company dont seem to care much about retrogression(they sure do pretend). they would work in the best interest of WHOEVER PAYS THEM.
In general however, they would love:
1. H1 quota increase(irrelevant to us).
2. Family immigration(irrelevant to us).
3. Faster EB GC(relevant to us but not a high priority for them).
I was relying on AILA all along thinking that they will work for themselves and in turn it will help us but it shows from 1932 that by joining Quota raise of H1, they torpedoed the whole thing.

I just called USCIS and they asked me to wait for 90 days. Our application was recd on July 23rd by B.GERKENSMEYER at NSC. She said that NSC has is processing Dec 21, 2006applications now. Couldn't give me an answer when I told her that USCIS website is showing dates of Aug 9th, 2007 as of today.

Called TSC using the POJ method. Office told me that my case was approved on 10/26 (today) and card production was ordered. Officer told me that I should recieve the card in 30 days or less.
I checked the online status, it still shows the same status as 09/15/2007. There are no LUDs either. I didnt get any emails or text message on my phone.
Has anyone experienced anything similar?
Why cant for once something be smooth sailing for me? I will call TSC again around 4 PM (just to confirm from some other officer).

We are running a small funding drive as a gesture of support IV for answering each other's questions in times of need.
If your question is answered by a fellow member, do make a point to contribute some amount. It will help continue this effort.
We understand everyone is busy with I485 filing and have put everything on hold. But we have not put our efforts on hold in the interest of this communty and this cause. Core is working on this issue despite being busy on their own I485 filing.
We are also working with our lobbyists on CIR and as soon as there is an action item we will post it on the forum for all to participate.
At this time, do take out a couple of minutes off your busy schedule with I485 filing and contribute towards Immigrationvoice.
Thanks

Your Case Status: Decision
On August 17, 2010, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later. If you move before receiving your card, please call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.
During this step the formal decision (approved/denied) is written and the decision notice is mailed and/or emailed to the applicant/petitioner. You can use our current processing time to gauge when you can expect to receive a final decision.
Case Status changed to Decision..with the above message today.
After 2 failed marriages (i mean with 2 different companies)...some risk-taking ..coz, i left my second employer after crossing 200 days since filing I-485 , Used EAD and took up full-time employment with an awesome organization , and then later 2nd employer revoking I-140 that lead to an RFE ...and USCIS keeping the status Response received since Jan 2009 ...and now this ...after opening an SR on 08/10..Looks like it took an exact week since the SR was created.
Of course, my roller-coaster was a small one compared to the rest of the friends in this forum.. Good luck to all and thanks to one and everyone.
Cheers..

I have been a reader on this site for years and have contributed to many of the fund raising campaigns. I agree with many of the comments on this thread. Brothers and sisters we need to team up and clamour for fair treatment; let us all contribute with dollars and sweat. I assume most of us on this site can afford to contribute a lot more than we have in the past and the potential rewards (fair opportunity to Immigration) are immense.
I have personally been in the US for ten years and believe I have contributed to the society a lot - while being a law abiding tax payer (I wish I could use the word citizen). And my story is not any different from any of yours. Why then we haven't gotten what we deserve at this point, afterall we have earned it by our sweat. The reason is we haven't realized our strength: in numbers, in dollars and in our contribution to the American society. No one is going to listen until we make our plight known to the public at large and to the law makers.
Some thoughts on how to go about doing it. We need a detailed plan with names of volunteers who can contribute their time. The plan should also include a list of key law-makers we are going to contact and how. All of this will cost money - so the first thing to do is support the fund-raising efforts. I also think we need to increase the fund-raising target by a lot; because the stakes are so high.
I apologize if I have wasted anyone's time with a long post. And I thank all of you for caring for one another and by sharing so much info with all the silent readers of this site. I have learned more about immigration from this site than my employer or immigration attroneys could ever share with me.
I will now put my money where my mouth is by making a contribution to Immigration Voice.

Fortunately I didn't have to go through all your pain before deciding never to fly via London.
The worst airport, dumb and pointless procedures (before the "invention" of transit Visa) were enough for me to decide. I can't even imagine filling out a form and pay to pass through that horrible airport.
I pity those who travel with kids. Those kids may never want to fly again.
Good luck on getting the money back.

MAN !!! this is confusing ...
-- Sheela Murthy says not to apply multiple I 485
-- Rajiv Khanna says you should apply
-- My attorney says .. it is my call....
-- some guys tell me ... apply independently and then join the one that is reaching towards completion..
and I am confused and frustrated........
but really .. what should a man do ??? I will kneel down and ask god .. I will let you guys know what he has to say ..... :(
Another answer from Rajiv Khanna: on multiple 485s
I recommend both husband wife file for yourselves and for each other. So between the two , there will be four 485 applications. One: Wife as primary, husband as derivative. Second, husband as primary and wife as derivative. We do this all the time and this is the safest thing to do. You will keep whichever 485 set gets approved, first, the other will be rejected by CIS.

Hello,
I'm on H1B and eligible to file I-485 (PD Apr'04 , I-140 approved) and my son was living with us (me and my wife). He joined undergraduate course in Canada in Sep'2006. He visits us frequently and he is 19 + years old and got Canadian PR. I asked my attorney whether I should file I-824 form to transfer his case to Montreal, Canada? But attorney suggested to file for AOS since he will age out once retrogression starts again. All three of us have I-94 dated Jul'06 when we came from India and does not require to get new I-94 since he visits us frequently driving through Buffalo,NY. Now my question is related to form g-325a:\
1. What should he write in applicant's residence in last five years? Should he indicate that he is not living in US or living with us?
2. What should he write in applicant's employment history? Should he write school/college name?
Thanks in advance.

All,
Pls have one or two brief explanations of our plight and solution ideas on chage.gov to be voted by all in the community.
i have received this email from change.gov, and believe that the new administration can bring change for us:
{We wanted to tell you about a new feature on Change.gov which lets you bring your ideas directly to the President.
It's called the Citizen's Briefing Book, and it's an online forum where you can share your ideas, and rate or offer comments on the ideas of others.
The best-rated ones will rise to the top, and after the Inauguration, we'll print them out and gather them into a binder like the ones the President receives every day from experts and advisors. If you participate, your idea could be included in the Citizen's Briefing Book to be delivered to President Obama. }

Finally, we got the approval emails for self & wife.
I had got an email from TSC.Ncscfollowup@dhs.gov last friday (09/17/2010) with the update below-
1: The review was complete
2: Visa numbers were requested 2 months ago and all security/prints are current
3: Files have been forwarded to officers for completion.
In my case the email to SCOPSSCATA@dhs.gov helped a lot. They in turn sent an email to TSC.Ncscfollowup@dhs.gov to step up the processing.
As others have mentioned IV has played a big part throughout this journey. Thank you again.
HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS to you and your family! It has been a long journey.
I agree with SKIDUDE, sending e-mail to SCOPSSCATA helps (but please send an e-mail to this, only if you have not received a response from TSC Followup for at least 3 weeks)

I agree...
No disrespect to Al-Jazeera. But putting our story on that channel is not a good idea. People view anything on it with lot of suspicion, and Fox news interprets everybody Al-Jazeera sympathizes with as you know what.
Don't come after me for saying this, its not my opinion. But general opinion that I have observed from people who are not well informed(read majority of people). Lets focus on the main stream media in US, outside coverage is not that significant anyway.

Was asked to wait a week for an email and was given the yellow form.
Its been 16 days and no reply yet.
Does anyone know how long the wait will be?
How can I follow this up with the Mumbai consulate?
Is there a way I can cancel my application and go back on AP?
