I Agree, please stop this Field/Nationality conclusions. I don't know where this would lead.
We just want to gather as many people as we could and take action on it

Congrats to all those who have received their approvals. Do you get a "Card Production Ordered" email or "Welcome" email or both?
My attorney got an e-mail, i haven't gotten an e-mail yet. But i checked my online case status, which says card production ordered, should have card in 30 days time. My atty said that they are having some trouble right now with card production, so maybe that is why it says 30 days instead of 10 business days as it did in the past.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$GOOD MORNING GC$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Deadline = April 30th, 2011
Goal = 5000 votes on survey (see I-485 filing w/o current PD thread) and momentum to continue with this campaign.The survey is a platform to gather and push for launching action items. Based on response by 04/30/2011 - IV will decide whether to even proceed with initiative or not.
Actions - 1) Vote on survey.
2)Email ivcoordinator@gmail.com with PD, ph#,email & subject "I485 filing impacted�,
3)Print/Circulate Fliers and spread FB, wiki link (see "support thread")
This is a supporting thread to the "Want to File I-485 without Current Priority Date? Gather here" thread started by pappu.
As suggested by pappu/starsun, this supporting thread provides impacted members with additional information and tools to help the initiative.
Visit Immigration Voice Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Employment_Based_Green_Card#Process_.28EB1.2C_EB2. 2C_and_EB3.29) - for overview of Employment Based - Green Card process
Visit I485 Filing w/o current PD Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Current_Grass-Roots_Initiative_-_I-485_Filing_without_Current_Priority_Date) - for overview of this initiative
As pappu stated in the first post of the above referenced thread - some of the ongoing efforts include finding how many IV members would get benefit from such a provision and get basic details such as username/Priority Date of impacted members. Future action items might include drafting documents and letters to support this provision. There maybe actions such as sending emails etc. However we would not be able to open a public action item unless we can have thousands of our members willing to participate in a grassroots action item. This survey intends to understand the needs of our membership for this provision and collect grassroots information.
The fact is we have a dedicated group of volunteers (and we need more) who have been trying their best to spread the message about this initiative so that a strong grass-roots support can be created leading up to launch of the public action items. So far we have around 1100 people who have responded. Based on quick calculations carried out using PERM data, it is estimated that there are at least 60K-70K EB applicants waiting to file I-485/EAD/AP (this is a very conservative estimate..the actual number could be much more). Grass-roots initiatives require time and patience and we request maximum number of impacted folks to participate actively.

Good to see an EB3 thread with so many people in EB2 getting Greencards these days.
It is a matter of time EB2 I is current and nobody from EB2 will care for EB3. It is comforting that many IV core is EB3 and some good will happen to EB3. A friend of mine with EB3 I PD in 2008 has literally lost all hope of getting greencard and that is very sad. It is painful to see EB2 people not helping EB3 people. Why?
You are right that there is no hope for EB3 India. But only as long as you and others in EB3 do not meet their lawmakers. Take part actively in action items. We have details of every local town hall meeting in your area and you can go there. We can help you set up your meeting with your lawmaker in his office. We can help you meet in their DC office if you want to get really active. We have several more details and ideas and need people to work on them.
FYI we never use the terms like EB2 or EB3 in our meetings with lawmakers. There is no priority in our agenda based on category or nationality. http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5&Itemid=47 You will not find anywhere EB2 or EB3 based agenda here.

Wow!!! I wish I could have attended this mesmarizing rally experience. Now can you guys come up with more data on who (Rally member) met who (Law makers / Media Persons ) and how those meetings were and what opinions you heard at least verbally. What we could successfully conveyed particularly to law makers etc...

In my opinion filing TWO application does not seem right choice. What if both get approved ? Do you get two cards each ? What if there is a collision in their database and raises flags ??
Using one PD that best suites you seems to be the right way.
Or file independently with no dependents (less likely to fly with most)

Some of members in Nor. Cal are checking their schedule to make sure they can participate in the August San Francisco event.
Hopefully, we should have some more ppl sign-up
That is great news!! I am excited to hear that we will be getting the support of NorCal Members.
Team IV has reached a membership of 27 members as of today. I have several more to confirm by this weekend.
That is nearly $9000 in fundraising efforts that we can target! $9000 may not be much, but it can be put to good use for lobbying of new bills, especially the three new bills introduced recently for highly skilled legal immigrants pending GCs.
Go Team IV

Hahahaha... that's my ironic laafter!
Every one got a nice GPL again this month - yet no one really wants to do anything... why?
Because "Chal raha hai to chalne do" ... the usual Desi mentality...
All this sounds crude - but its true. Truth is almost always bitter... like the VB every month!
I just donated to IV ... gimme REDs if you want, I care the least ... all I really care about is the GREEN (card)...
Good luck fellowmen, we are all together in this boat - all we need is a mass awakening for the lawmakers to our state of being!
Thank you. The community needs to wake up. Times are going to be tough not just for H1B but for everyone else in line for GC.
Advocacy is a long term process that requires lot of efforts and resources. We should not be expecting quick results because of one month's contribution. That is peanuts when you compare it with the amount being spent against us.
It is high time people join the state chapters and try to lead them if your state chapter is dormant or inactive. Action items will happen but we need to be ready. Try to get more people in IV. The mantra for success will be mass participation in the coming times. It should not be a couple of hundred phone calls or faxes that happened last year, but hundreds of thousands of calls, faxes and thousands of meetings.
If we can achieve that then we will definitely increase chances of success significantly this year.
This community needs to think how it can increase mass participation on IV and bring everyone waiting in line on IV platform.

IV members are requested to update their profile with valid dates so that we can make IV tracker helpful for everyone.
I have personally decided to make this request to everyone who does not have their details completed and only then respond to the member. If a member has bogus data in their profile for tracking purposes I would not be replying to that post. This might help encourage members wanting replies from IV core team for their questions.
Thanks, and i have. But there seems to be bugs in the tracker. For eg the filtering doesn seem to work and the page looks broken :confused: Would it be possible that these are fixed soon ? Great idea by the way.

Labor filed in Aug 2002, approved after 6 years in June 2007. Meanwhile, our son aged out in June 2004. Daughter turned 21 today, and her I-485 adjustment application is in the July 2 logjam.
The DREAM Act can be a solution for our son, but some of the versions were made applicable to only illegal immigrants. We have to be careful to read the details whenever the next version makes its headway in the Congress.

What nonsense is this.
Isn't this supposed to be a public forum that people can join and share updates. There is no disclaimer that one needs to donate to participate in discussions on this forum.
If donations are mandatory - this would have been a paid only website and access to all should have been restricted. I bet the participation and visibility of a useful site like this would be detrimental in this case.

I am got audited at Atlanta. and I know many Chinese like me were stuck there too.
Please open a new thread at to get more Atlanta victims here!!!
and I would like to put this url on some Chinese immigration forum to get more data. But before that, could you please let me know what the next step so that I could get more People in.
That is exactly my point that Perm Audit is not focused on Nationality, Field or EB category. If most people are from India, China, Philippines then automatically most audit cases are going to be from these countries.
Are you also being audited?
