It's just bad luck to get that kind of CBP officer. It's upto you to ignore this or escalate it. In my opinion behaviour of CBP officer was wrong.
If you want, You can write letter to Commisioner of CBP about the incidence, following is the address :
http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/toolbox/contacts/headquarters.xml
That IO must be a knucklehead who just hates "Specific type of people" or someone who does know the f** he is doing. I have entered using AP at Boston. San fran, Seattle and never had problems. Only once they asked me for EAD/a valid H1 petition and that was just a question.

As visa bulletin is taking time, it suggests that somebody is putting some efforts in determining new cutoff dates. And they need to use up leftover visas. Hope to get a movement all across.

And they say why Albert Pinto "Plassey" is an angry man?
My current H1 is expiring soon. My 3 year H1 extension is pending. I had receipt notice but NJ DMV at Wayne refused to accept that. My current License is valid only till the middle of the next month.
Any body in the same boat? What shall I do?
I was in the same situation, waiting for my L1 extension to come through and license was to expire on Aug 30th, went to 2 DMV's in different counties both had a different reason to say NO!!! One thing they had in common was that they need a letter from employer and also that they need the original receipt notice applied for the extension, I took them to a different DMV in Bergen county (one of the adjacent counties to mine) and had to speak to the supervisor who was a little confused and i told her that my cousin got his DL extended for 8 months while his visa extn was pending then looked up something okayed the extn...man it was terrible time running around...some of the DMV's were so bad the supervisors were out right rude did not even want to refer to their logs or whatever, well there is a provision for DL's to be extended for 8 months or 240 days while visa extn is pending, so try talking to superviosrs at DMV. Good luck...

Thanks lazycis, I mean no disrespect to anyone, just that I find it very difficult to understand some of the ways we all respond towards the events we don't understand. We all simply blame it on God.
And this is the oldest trick in the book of "religious folks". As soon as you question about the twisted belief like "God's protection over this land", some "protecter of God" will throw at you, "people who beleiev in God, will find him". The question is not whether the God exists or not, the question is,
"God's protection over this land"? When we are all children of God, then why would God only protect "only this land". Why not protect other lands where other children of God lives. I think that "God's protection over this land" is a thought from a very inferior mind.
And I find no difference between between "child of God" and "son of God". We are all Sons and Daughters of God, although different religions wants us to believe that their masiah is the "ONLY SON" or "ONLY MESSENGER" of God. And that just too much baloney.
Just like you, I too believe in the existance of God, however, my version of God is not sitting on a lion or a monkey shaped human or tied to a cross or telling us to kill non-believers to go to haven with 72 virgins. I think thats just too pipsqueak depiction of God. I trust that the God is present everywhere but its not what have been described to us by any of the organized religions. And everytime someone throws out some text, like the one Richard Ketchum, I am complelled to voice that its a twisted thought process, which often emanates from the twisted belief system of some organized religion.
Also, Jeffersion, Adams, Franklin and other founding fathers of this nation were all extremely learned because they were all knowledgedable enough to keep the "religion" out of government. Because they knew that most men cannot distinguish between right and wrong when it comes to God, and too often organized religion blinds us by asking us not to question anything.
I think you are scared to think that your existance is merely by chance. Thats why, for the things that are too big for us to comprehend, we want to think that there must be a "hand of God", just like that goal scored by Maradona in the finals of the world cup soccor. You are scared to think that if this all happened by chance, then it could also get destroyed by chance, so you want to believe in God the way your religion tells you to believe that "your God is protecting you and this earth from the evil". But the religions do not tell its followers that religion is the actual evil because it describes God in the wrong way. That narration of Richard Ketchum is to further someone's twisted belief system. And that's why I have a problem with such narration, because I fear that iit will continues bleed into our successive generation, which will continue to be bonded to these twisted beliefs instead of thinking freely. Thats the risk I am concerned about.
And just because 32000 british troops lost the war, it doesn't mean that "God on my side", which is different from questioning the "existance of God". "Religion", "God", "some event which you believe was done by God", because these are all different things, although, "protectors of religion" will tell you that they all mean the same, and their "religious book" is the ONLY word of God. That's too much of bullshit to digest in one life.
I find your ideas illogical, but I respect your opinion. Those who seek God will find Him.
If you deny facts, however, the facts do not change because of your opinion. People once believed that the Earth is flat.
You cannot deny that the American nation was found by those who where seeking religious freedom. Also read biographies of G. Washington, A. Lincoln, J. Adams and other founding fathers. They were sincere believers. I cannot explain America's greatness by simple luck. The founding fathers started builidng from scratch about 300 hundred years ago, far behind Europe and Asia. Now the US is the richest country in the world, despite the fact that it's neither the biggest nor the most populous.
As for your questions, I cannot prove that God exist, just like you cannot prove that He does not. Either way, it's a belief. I chose to believe in God.
God is the omnipresent, omni powerful spirit who fills the universe. If you want to know more, just ask.

I hope you won't try to buy your potential mugger some beer! He's just going to drink the beer and still shoot you :)
i'll take this as joke.
Trust me, if he wants to kill you, he won't ask for your money.
If he asks for your money/car, he doesn't intend to kill you.

I think once an I-485 is filed every one should be equally treated based on their category. If country qouta is based on countries interest, there should not be more applications accepted than within the sitpulated visas. That is not the case here. We have thousands of applications stuck at USCIS. Since GC processing puts certain restrictions on ones ability to shape ones career, it is not fair to ask one applicant wait for more time than other applicant purely based on country quota. We should keep in mind that gc processing effects indaviduals not their countries. So, it is discriminating to make one applicant wait while issing visa's to other person with same qualifications (except that he is from another country).
Yes true but why would ROW people be interested in it. They have everything to loose in this change of rules. The change of rules would lead to equal distribution of misery.

The officer from looks & accent seemed orignally from US's southern neighbor. The way I convinced him was repeating how important it was to visit my parents as they are so far away and I get to visit after long time etc..
But as one of the poster mentioned above, they should make some change in the text and purpose of AP.
Thanks for sharing this experience, I feel sorry for you that you & your family had to go thru this. I want to check with you what finally conviced the officer to change his initial stand to let you in? This will help us to learn from your experience... Thanks

pappu,
With limited information, it was the best I could do :)
What is your take on all these bills.. I am sure you have much more info. Do you see any hope of EB relief in 2009?
There is growing pessimism in EB community.
We have some rough plans for 2009.
We need to wait for some time to see how immigration bill becomes a priority. We anticipate some more placeholder bills that will make a statement. However in the end, there will have to be a bi-partisan effort and strong will to write a CIR. I feel economy will take priority initially but they will have to look at immigration sooner than later. Admin fixes is another possibility we see. While the EB2 India and China are now getting direct benefit from horizontal spillovers, in 2009 we need to meet again with the administration and make a good case about EB3 India, China and EB3ROW backlogs. The problem seems to be increasing due to limited visas per year. This is the reason dates have not been moving. Several Other small items for admin fixes are also in brainstorming stage. Like We want to address processing delays on all applications for all categories, do something to protect the rights of immigrants, etc.
We also want to involve more members who got their greencards or immigrants who are now citizens on IV. We want suggestions from members how we can do that and get their support for this cause.
I am sure with the new initiatives you will love Immigrationvoice more and want to come to IV everyday.
At your end, please try to spread the word about IV. We can be successful in all our initiatives only if we can get more participation. Thus we need to get more EB India, china and ROW members in the IV fold. This must be our top priority early this year before we launch our big campaigns.
We look to members reading this post to help us reach out to their friends and introduce IV to them. We have well meaning intentions for everyone in every category and country and want to help and bring relief. It is important that we come together on IV and make a united effort to end our common immigration problems.

The short answer is most republicans voted yes for the senator Cornyn's bill to recapture the unused employment -based visas from previous years and almost all Democrats voted No (except Murray democrat from Washington voted yes for the bill.

This reporter asks the readers to join him to extend our "THANK YOU" to the Senator Cornyn for continuously supporting the American businesses, foreign brains, and employment-based immigration. This reporter also urges the readers to send a thank-you email for his support.

[QUOTE=oldschool;147268]Are there any implications of leaving my employer now who sponsored me for GC? I got my GC on the first week of July. I plan to leave on the 1st week of September. Thank you very much.
You can leave even before your GC comes through by invoking AC21.
Frankly, I think the 6 month period is propaganda.
its my opinion and not legal opinion.
If you already used AC21 then? how would you explain to IO. I think what matters is your explanation and there should be no reason for denial of citizenship if you are able to explain.
cheers
