It looks like to me that Porters strike again. they have eaten all the Visa's. very few approvals so far. I am worried about next bulletin now. dates can go back now. every EB3 is porting to EB2.
we see the results. they will block EB2 too.

I am starting this thread for people to share some nice sweet memories about the rally.
This Part 1 is basically for "WHO MET WHO"
Most of us in these forums - we talked on phones for a long time and discussed a lot of topics - and we met each other in real at the rally.
I was excited - and I want to share some of my experiences.
Please post some experiences on this thread like mine below
I drove from New York with 5 other dedicated IV members ie tnite, tikka, siraviny, ps57002 and a new member Arun
At the Rally I met Niloufer(needhelp) and Vandana, drona and other volunteers at the registration desk and was nice to meet you all.
Then came paskal and gsc999 who stuck a badge on my shirt "chanduv23" and then I met Shivakanth, Vijay Anand and other folks.
After that I met Macaca - lovable guy, some core members like indio0617, ashish, tamsen.
Then I met pappu. As soon as I greeted him he stood up. I thought he was respecting me. I felt honored. But after a while - he was standing up to anyone who greets him. Then I figured out that was his habit - and no respect or whatever :D:D:D
Then met Abhijeet who was carrying his guiter and then jazzbythebay, janilsal and other folks and Jay and Aman and all core team members
Then I met all the Chinese friends in the NY chapter, Jane, Sophia and it was nice knowing them
I did miss out a few names - but overall I loved this experience of meeting you all the folks
chanduv23:
Same here. It was great meeting you all, seeing the faces behind the voices and names. It was an emotional high.
Pappu and me stopped at Union Stn for lunch on the way back after the rally. We were both physically drained and famished. Our jaws dropped when we spotted a desi restaurant there. You all should have seen how we attacked the food !

Also, What another document one receive with change of status. Do we receive new I-94 card too!!! if yes , we haven't received it , what does that mean?
Thanks for your time.

7) Bottomline now EB3 will move upwards till 2005 mid with first priority and EB
2 will also brought till 2005 mid but this will be done by moving Eb3 first as
it is already way behind.
EB2 will move to 2005, but not as fast as you think. See these IV polls:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6266
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=6128
again a small sample and possibly statistically invalid; but 50% of people waiting for GC from EB2-India have PD < March_2005.
8) Once both EB2 and EB3 reches 2005 mid bench mark Eb2 will again
become faster with comparision to EB3.
why? Most people past 2005 have actively tried for EB2. Either by abandoning earlier filings and doing a fresh one in PERM, or by trying to recapture them.
In 2001 no one cared if your LC was filed in EB2 or EB3. From 2005 onwards people are actively looking for EB2.

Thanks - I guess that's good advice.
Btw, do I need to send the original passport with the application?
Yes, you will need to send the original passport along with the filled in application...Since the passport is expired for over an year, check this out:
Quote:
When should you apply for the new passport?
i) Apply for reissue of Passport if the final (F) validity is less than one year. For example, if your passport is expiring on 31st Dec. 2008, you can apply for a new passport from 1st Jan. 2008 onwards.
ii) The Passport should be renewed within one year of its expiry. If for any reason you have delayed applying for a new passport beyond one year after expiry of your passport, an affidavit stating the reason for delay sworn before a Notary or a Consular Officer should be submitted along with the application.

all the studies by economists, investment experts, psychologists, etc for the last several decades clearly showed that for 99% of the people day trading makes them lose all their money. it is highly addictive and on an average everbody loses their savings. legally it is another style of trading and there are no consequences whether you are on J1, H1B, on EAD or a citizen! (ofcourse if somebody knows which stock is going to be up/down and exactly when, he can make a lot of money (better call him a prophet than a day trader/pattern trader).
Guys, My personal opinion. Pls do not fall for these risky trading tactics. I'm in no way against trading, but cautioning you whole heartedly...and I have nothing against the original poster
In trading if you are able to beat the market with 10-20% consistency for 2-3years, the wall street banks will be at your door steps asking you to work for them with profit sharing and salary
Based on my experience of trading...
"Money is always an inch away from your finger tips, the more you run towards it , the further away it goes.... " and its a never ending story
The so called wall street is full of crooks/manipulators and what an ordinary investor thinks to be an excellent stock would be junk if the street does not favour it...How much ever you compare relative stocks with fundamentals, p/e, Financials statements, beta , volatility etc etc....
And the Buzz words for these kind of manipulations are " Shorting, Naked- Shorting, Rumor mongering, Insider Trading, Pre-after market trading"
I bet once you are in trading, you will have tremendous Mood Swings.
However if you want to understand what trading is all about , you can visit this trading education website . Its a nice set of videos about technicals.
http://www.youtube.com/user/InformedTrades?ob=1
Also if you would like to see what kind of patterns you would like to trade, then you can visit www.finviz.com
This site contains all the buy/sell signals like Double/multiple bottom, head and shoulders, wedge down, wedge up , double top etc etc.....
"Don't trade with money you can't afford to lose"
All the very best.

Oh !! I see then to approve for a 2001/2002/2003 485 case , every month USICS needs to make the VB current on 15 and take back to on 30 ....
Not necessarily that they have to make it current as the retrogression kicked in only @ 2005 Jan, so none with PD 2005 or later has their petition pending at this time at least in EB2/3 category. Also in 2004 there was not PERM and folks filed for Labor, except in certain states like Iowa, etc... Were waiting for labors somewhere between 6-10 months minimum. Mine took more than 2 years. So the I-485 petition pending, latest PD most likely could have PD�s up to June/July 2004 for EB2/3 category. So if they set the cutoff date Dec 2003 or Jan/Jun 2004 they will have sufficient petitions that are already processed and ready for approval, If they do not want to loose the visa numbers. I don�t understand the logic behind the VB, that visa availability showing current for all categories.. Had they bumped the Cut-Off date by 6 months at a time for each month or even a year, this might not have been so bad.

I haven't open any SR with USCIS , but some folks mention that when they open SR they get standard reply to wait for 30 days. With visa dates going back and forth, customer should open SR as early as month start so if dates remain current for atleast two month they can get some reply. If you wait till end of month and then open SR and if USCIS ask for 30 days and date retrogress , I bet you next reply will be No visa available.
Service requests should have a wait time of 3 months or 6 months.
If you make it 5 days, people will open one every 5 days and jam the system. The speed of approvals is slow because everyone is calling, opening service requests, lawyer request, Senator request etc etc every day. Visa officer may be responding to service requests everyday coming from customer service than actually opening a file and making it ready for approval.
Common sense is missing in people.

EB3 Other workers has the most wait time compared to EB3 general. So by your logic people who are waiters, chef, janitors and farm workers should get the greecards before you. :D
And what will happen if CIR passed. All 13 million will be in a category that will be most backlogged. Should they get all greencards before you?
Well, thats spillover... Its not that USCIS is going to allocate more visas for EB3 or more Visas. So spillover, yes!

Do you need to be married at the time of applying I-140 to get GC in the same application ?
My question is when is the latest that one can get married so as to get his/her spouse a GC on the same application.
