Yes, you are right. It shouldn't take years to make a decision even if it is complicated. I think they may be not working on those cases at all. That may be the reason, they didn't comeup with any decision. It will be good if DOL gives the operating procedures and comeup with fair action on what they are really doing.
My case was filed in 2002 under traditional labor certification. DOL never questioned anything or asked for any clarifications (so I assume there were no complications). The job was advertised in last April (it was a little newspaper advertisement with few lines and very generic job requirements). There were no resumes received. But still I have not received my labor approval. So what baffles me most is why has the DOL been not able to taken any decision on my case even after 5 years. One of my friends who applied in traditional labor two years after me has already received his LC. Let us say, for argument sake, the case was complicated. How complicated can it be to be delayed by several years, not months? We probably would get answers to these questions only if we drag the DOL to court and make them explain.

I have been member of IV since Dec 05. Probably since a couple of weeks after it was founded.
In last 2 years, I have seen many ups and downs with this org and there are numerous stories to share in my work with core and grassroots, with lobbyists and congressional staffers, with friends and colleagues.
But what has been happening in few places lately is something that those responsible should be ashamed of.
On saturday IV chapter leader in Texas Needhelp! had organized a local chapter meetup. Now you may ask, oh, another one of those. What do they do anyways?
Well, here is what we do in chapter meetups.
WE WORK.
We find groups that can be formed to meet local congressmen. We refine talking points. We share updates that we dont usually share on website. We help new members get up to speed. We sometimes get local immigration attorneys to answer questions on pro-bono basis (yes, that means free for you) to serve the community. Lawyers get free publicity, we get free legal advise. A symbiotic quid-pro-quo.
This is what happened this weekend in Plano TX (Dallas Suburb).
Now mind you, Dallas area alone has probably atleast 300 registered members. Not to mention the lurkers for whom I have a special message below(at the end).
This is what she (Needhelp) reported after chapter meetup.
Most members who were expected to show up did not. I spent whole morning preparing this, I feel guilty that I made my daughter miss her dance class and then those who had RSVPed didnt show up.
Yep. She missed an extra carricular event important to her daughter for this meetup.
Dont even get me started on those who live 10 miles from Plano Texas and dont bother responding even.
You know, when someone arranges to send you details in email and you know about it, you say you will attend and then you dont, what do you think is going to happen?
IF EAD IS THE END OF THE ROAD FOR YOU...
If EAD is the end of the road for you, then why are you still coming to this website. There are about always 600-700 people on this site during the day and about 300 people at night. Who are these people?
The truth of the matter is, the ones who dont contribute, have stopped contributing, or have never contributed funds, attended events or given anything to this org - but still keep scouring theads - are the people to be pitied. You will always be worried. "Mera kyaa hoga". (what will happen to me). Your journey wont end. Ever. Even after getting GC you will be worried about citizenship. Even after getting citizenship, there will be small itch in your head - what if my citizenship is revoked (yes it can legally happen and has happened to a WWII genocide guy in 2001-2002 timeframe, go google it and ruin your rest of the day).
The truth of the matter is, right now, even after getting EAD, then only action you have taken is either stopped contributing funds, or stopped giving any of your time to this org.
But your life has not changed one bit.
You probably wont even use your EAD or change employers. You will constanly be worried about your namecheck, your fingerprints, your this, your that. You will be worried about new inquiries and RFEs coming on your approved 140 (approved years ago) during 485 processing. (yes that can happen too). You will be worried about accidental rejection of 485 (that's why most of the people wont even use EAD and continue on H1 to preserve option of using appeals process to appeal 485 rejection on H1). You will be worried about USCIS not buying your AC21 portability and sending your RFEs to prove that the ported job is "Same or similar" in nature. You will be worried about being unemployed for few weeks at a wrong time just about when 485 RFE comes and you dont have a letter to show you have a job offer to justify 485 approval.
So basically the struggle hasnt ended. Yes, keeping looking at your EAD in your wallet every 3 minutes, its still miserable.
So why not act to end the misery rather than scour forums and comiserate. Is it that much fun to comiserate and is it that much pain to co-operate?
THE LURKERS ON THIS SITE WHO WILL NEVER REGISTER OR DO ANYTHING AT ALL.
Not to mention how many cowards (yes, cowards who think that by registeration on this website, the USCIS will send a black helicopter to their home and abduct and deport them, the ones who have watched the movie "enemy of the state" too many times and think that there is a Jon Voight out there who has nothing to do both to pluck legal skilled immigrants and throw them out). I have a special message for those lurkers who need this website and visit it everyday but dont have the balls to register, share email and participate in any activity. This isnt about a chapter meetup, or your greencard or even this org. Your reluctance is not a reflection of your over-cautiousness. Its a reflection of your character. You will eventually get greencard, become citizens even, but this kind of cowardly attitude will made you lead a boring, uneventful and mediocre life.
And by the way, if the government was really after you, they would have already gotten to you for browsing this site too. Dont you think they (the black helicopter guys) can find our who you are while you are lurking? Ever heard of IP addresses? If I can find that out then they can do much more.

Dude is absolutely right. There is a lot of support for the cause of the undocumented. Their situation is ever more desperate, and what many people do not understand, because of their numbers and huge contribution to the economy, they pretty much hold this country hostage, because it simply will not be able to survive without them any more. This is why lawmakers are less interested in the cause of legal immigrants.
But there is a flipside to this story for us. EB immigrants can position their suggestions as a solution for the whole immigration system, and not just for helpign with the situation right now, but going into the future. How? Very simple. Increase EB quotas, exempt spouses, and repeal admissibility bars - and you will have a lot more visas left over from EB1-2-3 that go lower skilled 'other workers'. If there is no admissibility bars, they would be able to apply for CP in their countries. Not only that would help current undocumented, it will give future lower skilled worker a chance to come legally. And the best thing - no amnesty to make the antis go bananas again! Just my $0.02.

All that is being said is very true. Petitioning the US gov't is as American as apple pie. As aspiring Americans we can only be respected for this, if we do it politely and peacefully.
People who put in a herculean effort (not to be underestimated by anyone here) to organize the rally and surrounding activities, broke their backs trying to lay a platform for the rest of us to communicate our case. It is only natural that when they get the lamest of lame excuses, they feel upset.
Every one of us has skin in this game. We need to find some way to lend our weight to this issue rather than just passing time on this or other websites. It is really unclear to me why in America, the most free society on the face of the earth, people feel unmotivated, inert, insecure etc to press what is a most legitimate grouse.
Let me give you a few points that might convince you in this issue. For most of us:
1) We are here at the behest of our employers or the US Gov't (NIW cases). Not on our own accord or illegitimately.
2) The US gov't has certified that our jobs do not have suitably qualified americans to take them.
3) The US Gov't has approved our immigrant petitions.
4) We are in a period of inordinate delay to complete the steps due to a variety of factors, including bureaucratic delays, inordinately long security checks(BTW bad for both us and the country) and an inadequate supply of visa numbers for the number of approved petitions.
5) We are asking the US Gov't to fix this issue and treat us fairly and not make us wait 6-10 yrs for no clear reason.
6) We are asking them to be more straightforward in their policy and to stop sending mixed signals.
Above all we are doing it in the most American of ways. Peacefully petitioning and lobbying the government. Most broad minded Americans can and do relate to this.

I guess they(morons, per your definition) are all techincally correct based on past memo's explaining USCIS stand on postmark dates,last working day in a month rule, the time at which the application was received(the revised bulletin was not yet published) etc etc
no matter what, the decision of accepting the applications is at USCIS's discretion.They can reject applications received in the last week of June as well if they want to.Period.
Calling USCIS is not going to help any single beneficiary. I guess this has been already answered by Oh. As long as we do not get away from concentrating too much on "Whats happening with my application?" we are going to sulk.

May be you do not know the meaning of three red dots for TheOmbudsman (it used to be two red dots this morning), which is "so many IV members do not like his postings" i.e, TheOmbudsman is "anti-IV"
FYI, if he does not like a posting with the word "CIR", why can't he ignore the post instead of replying to it with an assumption "people who mention CIR supports amnesty".
IV members support CIR just because it has EB reliefs (manager's amendment) - is it not simple enough to understand?
As someone pointed out from TheOmbudsman's posting, what "Rumsfeld resigning" has to do with immigration? What food you get from here?
You want to talk about Rumsfield's resignation and its relevance. Here it is: With Rumsfield resigning, the President has sent a clear message to Dems that he is more than willing to work with them. In the press conference at noon, the first thing Nancy Pelosi asked from the President was that Rumsfield should go and it happened.
Moving forward if anything has to become a law the Congress (which is Dem controlled) and the President have to work together else there will be nothing for anybody which includes Immigration Reform. I'm sure you know the President can veto anything. He can veto the immigration reform the Dems propose by saying its not along the lines he wanted it to be. So Rumsfield resignation is a good sign if you look at the over all picture. It also means the Dems are going to spend less time setting up inquiry commitees on everything the President & Republicans have done in the last 6 yrs thus moving forward quickly.
I guess I did make a case for my phrase "food for thought" without insult and sarcasm.

Keep your vigil. Research and google it. Use these terms. "nurse" and "retrogression" and "unused" and "visa"
Yes nk2006, you are right. Anyone interested, go to the other side and see. A simple departmental notification is accomodating the nurses.
Good News: Non-immigrant visa, H-1C, is back and now available for Filipino nurses (http://www.filipinonurses2us.com/)
In our December articles, Non-immigrant work visa for Filipino Nurses and The US needs a special visa for Filipino Nurses, we discussed the H-1C visa classification, which was created in 1999 to relieve the nursing shortage in the US but which had expired in 2005. However, due to the increased shortage in nursing and the retrogression of immigrant visas, which the regular temporary work visa or H-1B can not accommodate, the United States has finally made a move to address the problem in the nursing shortage.
Today, February 12th, the Department of Labor announces the Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Reauthorization Act 2005. The reauthorization took effect on December 20, 2006. This Act reauthorized the H-1C non-immigrant nurses program, a program originally created by the Nursing Relief for Disadvantaged Areas Act of 1999. The program allows employers to file attestations with the Department of Labor, Office of the Labor Certification (OFLC).
Hi,
Many posts on this thread suggest that there is no H1B type visa for nurses and so they have to come on only greencard; and that is why Health lobby is trying hard to GRAB 90K unused visas

Mohican,
Good luck with the MTR, I hope your attorneys are able to file it ASAP, and your 485 gets reopened even faster.
I switched employers about a year or so after my 485 had been filed (140 approved) and my employer has informed me that they are going to have to revoke my 140 soon.
The attorneys at the new employer's filed AC21, G28, etc., but looking at everyone's experience, I too am expecting to get a denial or at best, a NOID/RFE once the 140 is revoked.
I don't have answers to your questions unfortunately, but I would think that even if the 140 was used for someone else, you shouldn't need a new one, since you switched employers after 180 days of 140 approval, and for those 180 days the 140 was not revoked/reused. Of course, an attorney has to confirm this.
Please do keep us posted on how things go, how long the MTR takes, etc.
In the meantime, do you have to go on unpaid leave, because of your EAD becoming invalid or do you have backup status such as the H-1B?
Thanks very much and good luck,

You can apply for ITIN even if your spouse is not in US. I have done it ealrier but the only condition is she shouldhave visited US on dependent visa last year for your to claim?
-Udaya.
My wife never been to US and I am married for 2 years now. I have been filing my return as Single.
Last week I talked to IRS and they said I can apply for her ITIN without her being present in US. The condition of visiting US applied to other dependents and not for the spouse. She has to sign my tax return though that I have to mail it to her and she will mail it back to me with her signature.
Not sure how true is that and I don't know if I should give it a try or not.
Thanks.

Well, I don't know where you got the 6/7 years from. But the way I understand it, 7% per country does NOT mean that any one country is guranteed 7% of the visas. It simply means that no one country will get MORE THAN 7% of visas. So yes, even if your country was issued a very few visas in that fiscal year if the rest of ROW applicants used up all the numbers, you may have to wait for a while depending on your PD.
So if what you are saying is true, then form example, country "A" has only one applicant. Since ROW collectively used all the visa,country "A" has to wait 6/7 years to get visa number?

SVAM77,
I'm planning to file my 140 and 485 concurrently on the same exact day. Will there be any problem with USCIS accepting my 485 because I'm filing 140 also on the same day ??
Thanks

My new target is 200. It was 100 before the deadline was extended.
58 collected so far (excluding the 24 letters at Fremont train station)
Besides, I prepare & mail about 20 envelopes a day to WH=> these envelopes contain letters coming in from several folks in CA.
This weekend, NORCAL will do not 1 but 3 drives:
Sunnyvale temple
Grocery stores @ Sunnyvale
Grocery stores @ Fremont
For more details, check out the latest messages on NORCAL yahoogroup!
After the last weekend drives in NorCal, my own tally rose to 151.
Actually anyone can spend an hour or two on this, and see how easy it is to score at least a hundred!

Maybe it was the same woman - I went to DC embassy last year for passport renewal and the lady officer was rude and reckless. she started talking to me in hindi/hurdu, without any regard to whether or not i understood her language. I said stop - talk in english and she fumed at me! i told her i couldnt understand whatever language she was speaking but she refused to speak in english. i somehow gave my papers to her and she processed it. it was like dealing with some foreign embassy.
