eb3napa,
thanks for the clarification. I have a BE and an MBA form India with over 6 yrs experience in the USA and elsewhere. Not sure if i qualify as advanced degree.
So peopel with advanced degree can move out of EB3 or any EB quota is it ? Their PD will be current ?
Not necessarily getGC. I am EB3 but i am a Masters from the US. Sometimes for fresh hires lawyers play it safe by applying in EB3. I had emailed someone at competeamerica.com and they had mentioned that an "advanced degree" is either a masters or a PhD. You mentioned that you had an engineering degree from India. Is that a B.E. or an M.Tech/M.E.? If you have a master's degree from India, you need to ask ur lawyer if that qualifies as an advanced degree.
But even otherwise, it still benefits you, coz say even 20-25% of Current EB3 have master's degrees, they will be out of the queue and you will be benefitted. I know it doesnt sound like a benefit, coz it is not a direct one, but if you look at it from a different angle, you will see it.

Dude:
If you think you are qualified for an EB2 job why don't you apply for one and get another labor/140 filed rather than crying "Sour Grapes"? Get out of your comfort zone and try getting a new job. Simple. If you have been on an Eb3 since 2004, that explains your "Go getter" attitude. Be smart dude.
Well said. Especially in IT,every company irrespective of size is a consulting company in its own perspective.If its Microsoft, majority of the products are developed with a vast team size of thousands and no one can take a complete credit on that product, except the company.
That's why its called team work.Every individual team member contributes with their specalized skills and thats what they were hired for in first place.
Its just a matter that the Company felt that your skills require only a bachelor's degree for the work that you perform,whereas other company felt it requires a master's degree.
Also as a matter of fact since the last 10 years the technology has changed in such a fast pace,I can confidently say that just because someone is an architect in J2EE does not mean he is better than a Mainframe Programmer. Its just means that someone were at the right place at the right time during the Dot com boom.
Its easy for people working at big companies to move around and work for different projects as the size is directly proportional to the number of clients the company serves. Whereas for a small firm,due to their nature of business model,its always serving the Big Fish and supporting their projects. You can find number of sub-contractors working for IBM,HP etc etc. So if an employee of Big company and a contractor working on the same project does the same work,how are you as an employee better skilled than a contractor?
Its just that you chose a comfort zone by abiding by your comapnies policies,whereas a contractor chose to move around and work on exciting projects that suits his/her challenges.
So bottomline,someone being in EB2 or EB3 is just by choice of the individual and circumstances and here I assume each of them have same experience and qualification.
Example someone having an Engg degree from IIT is no different than a person from an average engg working on the same project. Its the IIT graduate that chose to work on the project that and average engg qualification person chose to work.
Same thing applies to EB2 and EB3 as well.

What about cases in 2004? not many?
A: (1) Remember 2003 start to 2004-mid were the years even just joined
paralegal was forcing you to apply under EB3 and that is in non rir and
that phenomenon was across board from east coast to west. So many
highly skilled people were also in EB3 queue. Many of them have
switched back to EB2 during PERM start era. But this is the period
where "tons" of EB3 were created and hence considerable files are still
in wait mode.
And, the movement (to 2005) would happen only during last quarter of the FY when numbers overflow from other categories? Or under normal movement?
A: In my opinion it will move average 2-3 months ahead every month till Sept
08 and Oct 08 should jump it beyound 2004 and by end of Dec 2008 it
should be at 2004- mid "At least".

You are talking as if IV made this change possible. This is nothing but conspiacy theory that you have made up. It was entirely CIS decision to reinterpret the spill over rules. I had never heard any of IV member on this forum or in state chapter updates talking about spill interpretation campaign. This has been a suprise for most people ( a pleasant for some of us) You tell me what can IV do here tell CIS to revert back to EB3 ROW in which case both Eb2 & Eb3 Ind remain U for time eternity.
Yes, what I posted was meant to be hard,
ask a EB3 person if he was happy when EB3 was available and Eb2 was not.
Did any one try to justify the reason why EB2 was UNAVAILABLE? No.
Did anyone here feel unhappy that EB2 moved so nicely? No.
Then why are we not seeing a single post from anyone which says we as aspiring immigrants are not being failrly dealt with when EB3 did not move with EB2.
Instead we see posts about why EB3 is not moving and explanation of reasons behind it.
Is there a hidden agenda here, NO. Not from IV, am i trying to prove something like that? I dont think so.

I am sure we are all rejoicing and this is surely a cause to celebrate.
But, the battle is not over yet. I hope once most of the members get their 485/EAD applications rolling, they will get back on track and fight for the real objective. To obtain our green cards in time!! Dont forget the wait is NOT over yet...
I am sure we all are going to be a lot rejuvenated and continue fighting retrogression with greater zeal..
Just to set the record straight even I benefit from the visa update, but I hope we dont slow down at this juncture...

What I meant to say, you�ll succeed if you have the capability (with your professional knowledge, experience and skills) in your professional filed but definitely not with USCIS.
I can say, USCIS is a great leveler in this aspect. Everybody from PhD to Programmer is same in front of USCIS. All have to wait 10+ yrs with mental tension and anxiety, no matter what your caliber is and how successful you are in your profession.
Don�t get me wrong here. I also had to suffer for visa stamping, renewals, I-94 issues, PA etc in US Visa processing (nothing sever though). At the 5th yr of H1-B, I just decided.. to hell with that.....
I don't know about you guys, but, I would be heart patient with that kind of anxiety in another 5 yrs of GC process �. Really need a lion's heart to pursue US GC now days
i completely agree with u.......waiting 10-12 years for a plastic card keeping everything on hold and renewing EAD,AP every other year.......h1b stamping........all that paperowork.......working ur a** out for the same employer for xx years........keeping track of excruciatingly slow movement of PDs in monthly bulletin.........feel like i am already in ICU man.........is this a life?????

Senator Frist Bill's bill excluded the controversial Temporary Guest Worker Program and Earned Adjustment of Status of Illegal Alien Program. Does it mean it is the end of these programs in the Senate? Nope! Frist's bill would go directly to the full Senate, but reportedly he said he would allow Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pa., to substitute a committee bill if Specter's panel can approve one by March 27. Otherwise, the majority leader will stick to a strict, two-week schedule to finish work on what he conceded would be "as challenging a bill as any we'll have to address this year." Senator Bill Frist certainly has dropped a bombshell, making his colleagues totally stunned, but there is a good chance that the Temporary Guest Worker Program and the Earned Adjustment Program eventually adopted by the Judiciary Committee on Monday, March 27, 2006 and the Committee's final compromise bill put on the center stage on the floor of the Senate.
The good news is that for the gain of politics or not, the comprehensive immigration reform legislation may move fairly in good pace to some observer's surprise. Legal immigration and employment-based immigration reform are clinging on the edge of the politics involving on these two issues.

Is it possible to upgrade from EB3 to EB2, if person is working on EAD after AC21 is invoked and H1 is expired?
I believe it is possible if your company is willing to do it. Having said that, you would be better off asking this question to a qualified lawyer.

I have flown in these airlines so far and here are my comments
Delta - Oh sucks man !! - Thiruvallur bus (in tamil it means - a normal congested government bus)
Qatar airways - decent - except for the food which is no good and you dont get the polite service (even they will not even check back if the light is on).
Jet airways -- wonderful ! Excellent food ! Superb airhostesses ! Good leg space and quite comfortable flight
Indian airlines - Oh man ! what a journey between singapore to chennai. We started late by 3 hours as they took one flight off (cost cutting) and bundled all of those pax with us. And we had to land on exactly 1 wheel (i meant with 1 tyre remaining). Nose wheel had tyres blown out and the back wheel had one blowout. But hats off to the pilot who took us safely. No bassinets, but the crew was cooperative and gave us a bassinet that could be placed down in the floor near your leg. I will vote against the machines (IA) but support the crew.
Singapore airlines - Awesome and hats off so far ! Had a tough time getting a bassinet for my baby as there was a code share with indian airlines (of all airlines - oh my god!). The indian airlines folks goofed up by not sending the bassinet request and food (vegetarian) to singapore airlines. But the staff was so accomodative enough that all the worries was sorted out effectively in the counter as well as in flight. Will always support them for their cooperation.

This is the most stupid thing i ever heard. sorry if i offended you by saying this, but i myself wish you should be first in the line than me. We(most of us whose pd is later than yours and most of you guys) wish sincerely that you people should get GC before we get. No one opposing your cause, but we are asking to think one more time whether you'll get any benifit from this. IF YOU THINK "YES" PLEASE GO AHEAD, but dont curse or use any kind of bad words, not appreciated.
Very few members of IV are stucked at backlog, so what i suggest is talk to core personally about your cases, ask them to help you guys in finding out what happened to your cases, if a person with pd 2005 got approved and 2004 is stuck means there might be some problem with the case filing, if not yours, your attorney might have done some mistake or so. so i personally think you should talk to core and find a way to solve this problem.
Hi Libra,
Your post is good overall, However I dont think you know how stuff works. I dont think you have any clue how people got stuck in BEC.
You said ".. if a person with pd 2005 got approved and 2004 is stuck means there might be some problem with the case filing, if not yours.." for you information, in almost all cases, BEC cases are not even worked. In your example 2004 cases are not even worked on and 2005 cases are approved.
So the cases in BEC are not even worked on, hope you understand that there is nothing wring with the applications of people got stuck in BEC and that not the reason why they are in BEC.

I have had all good experiences with fragoment till now, and I have been dealing with them for a couple of years now. They were very professional i should say. Again I work for one of the top 3 financial firms , and my employer has fragomen as preferred law firm.
I work for the Wall Street Investment Bank, I don't see any reason why Fragomen is a bad one, most of the banks deals with them.
Bad for some people, doesn't mean it's universal for everyone, for that matter that can happen to any law firm. :-):)

There is a logical fallacy here. What you are saying is:
Suppose country quotas exist to limit abuse
There are country quotas
Therefore abuse is limited
The very fact that you are complaining about abuse in the system disproves your proposition.
it's very easy to make assumptions of how the system works in this country when people want a solution that fits their own particular needs.
When people have been part of this society for less then 10 years; it is a very, very short time to understand how the system works and the whole history and what goes on behind the scenes.
I've said this in the past; many people walk around with eyes wide shut. Do some really exhaustive work of the history of immigration; the debates that happened when the laws got created; what has passed, what hasn't; what uscis/ice/dol is doing; request for evidence, denials, consulate refusals; underbidding of contracts, etc.; you may come up with different conclusions then what you may currently believe.
