Unfortunately, country of birth for PD determination is one thing that cannot change. It is ridiculous that a country like the US that promotes itself as a meritocracy and a country of second chances ties the fate of EB applicants to such an immutable parameter.
I used to believe in and respect the so-called the American Dream. The more I stay here, the more I see its hypocrosy. ;)
Whenever I hear someone (esp. those politians) talking about something like no matter who you are, you can always achieve your potential, I just laugh. What a disguise ... what a joke! :D

I think this is a valid point. We should request from USCIS to treat the employment base category same as other category. I am not sure that USCIS could fix this by themselves or they need any legislation.
This will be a big relief for us and will fix our 50% backlog.
Increasing GC numbers and/or not counting family members have been brought up in lawmaker meetings in the past. IV has been active and trying to get things done either administratively or legislatively. Look back at the letter writing campaign and consider some recent administrative fixes.
Need of the hour, call CHC members and your representatives.

Again, thank you all!
As a matter of fact, I am going back to France for 2 weeks next Sunday.
That's my first time there in 8 years...
I haven't told anybody yet about what happened recently.
They don't even know the whole story. Yes, all those years I had to lie, especially to my parents:I didn't want them to worry about me.
I was always saying: "I am fine, just fine.."
I am waiting for my friends and family to ask me the usual question:
"So, how come you don't have your GC yet? What are you doing?"
Then, I will have something to show them!

My personal experience, united nations in immigration portal is your best choice.
He deals with such cases on a regular basis and has helped me too.
If you want to talk about my experience, please send me a private email.

Congratulations on your citizenship. I am happy for you.
But, in what ways can you help? I very curious to know. I have been following your post and so far I am still optimistic for your grand help that you have been talking about through out.
I would like to help my fellow legal immigrants.

"Victory is always possible for the person who refuses to stop fighting." - Napoleon Hill
I would say ignore. If the hosts dont even use 'controversial' to describe him it's pointless trying to call in - its going to be an 'immigrant hate-fest' whether you call in or not and you are not going to win hearts or change minds. I remember 4 or 5 years ago he was raging against the H1 on air as usual and turned around to his staff and asked if CNN too was using the H1program - and the answer unsurprisingly was 'yes'. He has no sense of shame or a modicum of decency - none of his staff members either. And IV is ill-positioned and too narrowly focussed to take him on in any meaningful way given how a core member spoke against the z-visa (for illegals) to some n.carolina newspaper. But again I could be wrong so someone could give it a shot

You guys are amazing.. I have one hypothetical question.. Please pls let me know what you would have done in the below scenario. I think a simple yes or no answer is what I am looking for.
PD is Apr 06 - I-140 approved - Currently Unmarried � WILL TAKE ATLEAST ONE YEAR BEFORE I GET MARRIED - My Spouse will be residing in India at the time of marriage - Spouse would not have any valid U.S visa (H1 or L1).
I have read this thread and others, and I think I understand a little on how the process works. I am looking for your gut-feeling answer if I should apply for 485 or wait till I get married. Let�s assume that my marriage will take place only after one year from now.
I know it�s a very very tricky situation, I am very confused. Obviously, my preference is to wait for a longer time to get my GC, than separated from spouse for years.
Should I apply for 485 or not?

logiclife - i saw your video and figured out that you seem very stressed and disappointed about all these things. Criticisms are common especially when you work for a noble cause. Chill out man. You have enough support from a lot of people. What IV has achieved
(1) Bringing awareness to a lot of people - this is a big achievement
(2) Helping anonymous people who come with issues, most of the advises and opinions here do not have any selfish motives and every advise comes with a lot of experience
(3) Raising awareness in media
(4) It is single most strongest organization representing highly skkilled immigrants
(5) Exposing selfish employers and lawyers and educating immigrants so that they don't get exploited
(6) Being realistic about anything and everything
(7) Making sincere lobbying efforts
(8) Educating lawmakers
(9) Not breaking any rules and doing everything in a good manner.
What IV can focus
(1) Diplomacy - Lets study our opponents and businessmen and lawmakers so that we know where we stand and how to do things.
(2) Controlled membership access - People must fill out a membership form
The above said, I think when someone challenges and criticises, we can also take them in right spirit and not pounce on the person. Criticisms lead to a better system implementation and has its own advantages.
Good luck

Not wrong.. I said it's "being" cancelled..
No one knows for sure what the final rule is likely to be. Chances are anyone who doesn't have approved petition may be rejected once substitution is cancelled.
People sometimes don't want to believe bad news.. and this is what is going on with some desi employers and immigration lawyers..
but all signs are it's gonna happen and very soon.. maybe March 1st. I myself struggled and decided against someone who offered me in past 1 month.

3) - After that they fight with you
4) - Than you win!!
I count the awareness that IV has created in the community about our issues among one of the successes of this organization. If "do-nothing" people like viva and his posse can spend so much time on our website that is an achievement. Per Gandhi's continuum we are in the 2nd/3rd stage:D
Soon my lovelies soon! We shall win some relief and that would be the day I will remember for a long time. You all can imagine what these people would be doing ;)

H1B problems have nothing to do with retrogression.
If H1B employees are being mistreated by a certain class of employers, then what does that have to do with shortage of visa numbers?
Nothing.
Misuse and abuse of H1B program did not cause retrogression. And if the abuse ends, its not going to end retrogression. The H1B program does provide ammunition to anti-immigrants to use that paint-brush and paint the entire program of H1B and Employment based GC as bad. Fortune 500 companies dont engage in unethical behavior. The TCS, Wipro etc maybe do that. Small bodyshops certainly do that. I am yet to see a small body-shop, operated by a citizen of foriegn origin, working by the book and treating employees well.
But all said and done, these things make our life more difficult and exacerbate the situation that arose from retrogression. However, these things didnt cause retrogression.
At the most, these issues of H1B abuse may have provided support to some groups in keeping the H1B quota down. However, it has nothing to do with EB quota. In fact, IEEE-USA advocates bringing down H1B quota and RAISING the employment based GC quota, in order to remove factors that encourage employer abuse.
U have the point.
These issues are not causes for retrogression, but these issues make it difficult to fix retrogression.
IV moderators and members must not encourage things like "ABC company not paying bench salary for my wife though he took 3k from me to file for h1 and is holding her paystubs etc"" These are the things that will make it difficult to fix retrogression - in these kind of situations it is both employer and employee at fault.

"Because of his hate spreading with out understanding how h1b works, If there is any hate crime happens to any of the guys, CNN will have to take the responsibilty. What is the biggest economy driving force in USA in last 20 years. Technology. Who were behind most technological innovations? Chinese and Indians. How all of them worked? H1B. If you dont stop the rant. Be prepared to answer a lawsuit for racial discrimination and hate spreading."
