I filed for my I-485, EAD and AP on July 2nd at the Nebraska Service Center. I am EB2 with a PD of June, 04. I haven't received any receipt notices. Any one in the same boat/ who has been through this process would like to share their views? Also, given the current fiasco, by when should I expect finger printing notice and, realistically, the green card?

There were 1M+ EB GC applications as of March 2007 (when Ombudsman's report was written). There will be 1M additional applications by Aug 17 2007.
Lets assume a very conservative #: 1.4M by Aug 17. Then, 1.4M/140K = 10 years minimum.

If DOJ agress what is being done based on country of origin is unjust, in what way can they help?
Can they ask congress to act? can they order USCIS to recapture lost visas?
DOJ does not ask congress to act. They directly give orders to executive branch that is USCIS in this case, based on their judgment..

USCIS issues Employment Authorization Documents (EAD) in the following categories:
EAD: This document proves you are allowed to work in the United States.
Renewal EAD: You should apply for a renewal EAD six months before your original EAD expires.
Replacement EAD: This document replaces a lost, stolen, or mutilated EAD. A replacement EAD also replaces an EAD that was issued with incorrect information, such as a misspelled name.
Interim EAD: If USCIS does not approve or deny your EAD application within 90 days (within 30 days for an asylum applicant; note: asylum applicants are eligible to file for EADs only after waiting 150 days from the date they filed their properly completed original asylum applications), you may request an interim EAD document.
If the EAD app is not approved in 90 days, we can request an interim.Doesn't sound like a big problem then.......Am i missing something? Some folks said Interim EAD have been discontinued....but this on their official website???
I actually asked about the interim EAD thing while I was at my fingerprinting appointment at the local office. They do not have the equipment any more for producing these cards. However, if your application takes more than 90 days you can go to them and they will send an email to USCIS and you should then receive one within two to three weeks. I was told that calling the 1 800 uscis number and following up when things have gone beyond 90 days should have the same effect.
I am more than a little skeptical that this would work out. Have yet to find out since my spouse's EAD has only been pending for five weeks at this point.

Do you have a link to support upgrading databases til Oct 29?
hope you are right my friend. EB3->2 are handful (no point really in going ballistic on them).
Thought there were lot of BECs clearing out the older PDs and that's why they are shutting doors on us. And, of course, their databases are getting upgraded so they are stalling the process till Oct 29.

My interview is scheduled on 22nd Aug but not received letter yet.
email the consulate. I heard that they are very prompt in replying.
please visit http://mumbai.usconsulate.gov/ivfaq.html#whenappt\
In the FAQ section it says:
--------------------------------------------------
My date is current, my case is in Mumbai, and I turned in my forms. How can I find out the appointment date?
We schedule immigrant visa appointments by the middle of each month for the following month. We send a letter to the address of record in each case.
We also post immigrant visa appointments on our web site every month. Please check currently scheduled appointments to see if you or your relative has an appointment in the near future.

Everyone thank you for the quick replies...
How about if I send in Ac 21 paperwork and still be on leave of absence from my present company which sponsored my GC. It only gives me peace of mind because in case the new job does not work out I can still come back...
I suppose it depends on your employers LOA policy, but in most cases you are not allowed to work for another employer when you have taken a leave of absence. And if it's not illegal it would certainly be unethical.

Why cant you guys understand, we have no right to demand.
Lot of people , who otherwise would have qualified for Eb2 went ahead with EB3. First of all why did you you agree to it. Because, that time, that was something easy to get instead of changing it to EB2. That was the fight under your control. Not the one you are asking for.
Someone rightly said, you need one scientist,2 qualified/experience guys and 6 eb3 guys to do actual work. A right pyramid for an organisation.
But how can you miss govt. requirement. They need more PhDs. So they are asking us to do more study, earn more higher advanced degrees because thats what they need. Not our so called BE/Btech degree. In another 4-5 years, I wont be surprised, if only guys with masters will be only allowed to apply, if they find equal number of master graduates. Who cares for ordinary graduates. EB3 min qual will be raised to Masters with 5 years experience. What will be your say then ?
So look ahead and act accordingly. Make sure you can anticpate their moves. Its not a rocket science. 6-7 years back, there wasnt much application for EB category. But looking at the last year number, I wont be suprised, if they decide to raise the criteria bar. Simple, and all backlogs will be over. The reason they are not doing this because they still need eb3/eb2. But not in quantity, you would like them to but rather what they would like to have.
As far as country uota is concerned, everyone knows China and India, over populous contry. You increase the number to a million, and that would also fall short. But then they do not want so many people from a single country, as it will have a lot of political ramification in the future.
You are making up things here; Eb1->Eb2->Eb3 is correct only from education and experience for the Job point of view but not true from Quota point of view.
�The argument that Eb1 is preferred above Eb2 and BE2 is preferred over EB3 is absurd.
The regular yearly BE quota is distributed equally among all three categories, so then why they should not follow the same distribution for the overflow numbers?
Said that all BE3 applicants who are eligible should port there PD to EB2. Simple, when you know how the system works try to adapt to it.�
We don�t know the system when we filed our CGs, we just trusted out attorneys. If we have to do this CG stuff again most of us will do it differently.
Remember one more thing, one may be EB2 can still be less qualified and less experienced then an EB3 as EB criteria is for the Job not for the person.

When shastras were written, it was estimated that the world population is 32 million (I think its 8 million) or whatever that number is. Like when you say Namsate, it means "the God in me Salutes the God in you". As per shastras, god exists in every human being. So thats why that million number. It doesn't mean that there are 30 million gods, which is the litteral meaning of the text. Writings from olden times is just someone's interpertation of what they "understood" about God. Its NOT the final word. Human understanding of the nature and our surroundings have gotten better over thousands of years. Just like, we know how to cook food instead of eating raw meat. Wouldn't it make sense for the religions to EVOLVE, as we learn new things? But the "protector of religion" wants us to continue to live at the knowledge level of humans who existed thousands of years back, its just like asking us to eat raw meat. Will you eat raw meat just because our ansestors used to eat raw meat. If not, then why follow the same believes, haven't we learned anything new about God in the last thousand years. We all must be really poor intellectually to not leanr anything more about our creator in last thousand years. Maybe we should pity ourselves and get back to following the our same old religion.
.
2.As per Hindu shastra there 30 Million Gods+some(or one) for Christians+some(or one) for Muslims+few more for different people -- who is correct GOD here and whom should we follow.

You are suggesting how to avoid it rather then try to acknowledge that there is a problem in the wording of AP. By problem, I meant the whole dynamics has changes over the years, so, its time they change to reflect today's reality.
There may not be everyone who would continue to be on H1 while their AOS is pending.
In light of the AC21 provision, this is pretty common - people change jobs using EAD and are then on AOS. Looks like the wording on AP was ignored when AC21 was being made into law. This is now biting some of the travelers.
Could the AP wording be changed using an administrative fix by USCIS/DOS rather than a legislative update?

Use a competent attorney. Do not try to handle this yourself. I am sure that you have heard of "you get what you pay for"...
BTW, are you one of those cases with a 3 year degree + Experience, working in IT? If yes, the I can see why your I-140 was rejected. Lot of people have had this issue, but I do not know how many have successfully been able to resolve it.
JAFS, ALWAYS use grammar check.
The OP claims his 140 was approved. If they went back and rejected his 140, without request from his ex employer - this would be the first time I am hearing such things happening.

This is the third time an Indian American has won the competition in a row.
BTW, the huge number of Indian American partcipants is not due to the fact that " Indian Americans" are brilliant... These children (at least most) are partcipating not becasue they have talent but they are being forced to by the aspirations of their parents.
All the Indian American children are crying, sitting on the lap of their parents etc... See any other kid who lost, they were cool.
How do you support your statement? and how many Bee contestants have you met/talked to?
in studies you can not force someone, you can only help them stay focused, having lived in NJ for 6-7 years i have met dozens of india american teenagers, very rarely have i heard them going to so caled "teenage clubs" where they do all the kinds of nasty stuff. teaching kids how to stay away from things that would hurt them in the long run, and spending enough time with them is what most immigrant(not just indians) parents do.
15 years from now when you see more than 50% neurosurgens are of indian origin, please stand at times square with a banner "these neurosurgens are not brilliant but they were forced by their parents" :p

Dunno how credible this information is, but quoting from usvisainfo (Pederson Immigration Law Group, P.C. - Home (http://www.usvisainfo.com/))... "Mr. Charles Oppenheim who is the official in charge of the Department of State visa number allocations and probably the only person alive who truly understands the mysterious and sometimes mystical movement of immigrant visa numbers made the following predictions for the movement of visa numbers during the current fiscal year as of October 17, 2009:
* Indian EB2 may become unavailable by March or April 2010 for the remainder of the fiscal year.
* Indian and China EB3 category will like advance a little in December 2009.
* Indian EB2 has 35,000 applicants in line.
* Indian EB3 has 54,000 applicants in line.
* Worldwide EB2 should remain current for this fiscal year.
* There are 15,000 EB2 Chinese applicants in USCIS line as of 10/13/09.

the only way that they could find out would be based on your tax return.DO they really scrutinize to that extent?

Thanks! That's helpful... from what you say, sounds like PD is still quite important. RD comes into the picture only after the PD becomes current. However, if a range of PD's are current, then they would sort those by RD and not by PD.
For eg, if they move the dates forward by a year, and Jan 04 and Jan 05 are both now current, a person with PD of Jan 05 but an earlier RD would still get processed prior to an application with PD Jan 04 and a later RD (according to the FIFO principle)...
PD is the basic qualification and after that its all Luck .....Its a lottery ...

wasn't the flower campaign an 'effort by IV'?
Any way, I think you don't need IV's (for that matter any organization's support) to file a law suit. If you think USCIS is breaking the law, you can file a law suit with the help of a lawyer. A couple of $100 is all that would cost you.
Care to tell me how?
It was lawsuit filed by AILA, efforts by IV and other groups that reversed the decision. Gandhigiri in this country has very little value. This country works on laws/court system. We need to get laws to help us and we need support groups like IV to make that happen. Or else we can pray to God to shower some green.

I believe that even receipt date is not honored if the case has cleared all formalities and PD is current.
