Since people would be filing taxes early next year, and most expect some returns from Uncle Sam, how about starting a thread to pledge $ 200 from tax returns?
Also, someone had once suggested IV set up a mechanism via Pay Pal to make auto deduction of say $ 20-25 every month. That should get it more continuing contributions and help even out IV's cash flow.

1. You stopped worrying because you got your EAD at least.
2. USCIS is not asking to prove relationship with your great grandparents every time you go for H1B extension
3. You don�t need to worry about the VO at POE or consulate and not postponing your India trip for 3-4 years now.
4. Even though you are on project and pay roll is running, paying the tax...don�t lose your sleep over what memo comes next before the next H1B extension.
Our people are not worrying until it strikes them. Till then they will ask all sorts of questions and have attitude of why should I donate. You can see now and then a thread on IV - Help urgent, I-485 denied, H4- denied.
Why its urgent now for them...?
Mr. Nathan I have a great deal of respect for you and all those who have committed themselves to driving IV and all activities it is doing. But what you understood from my post is entirely wrong, and I have to explain why, because if this is the misconception you are having, not about me in particular but everyone who is not involved, then it definitely needs answers.
As I already clarified, I had stopped worrying about GC, long time ago, not after getting EAD.
I bought a house when I didn't even start my current GC process.
I went to India (Chennai) in my 7th year for H1 extension stamping (after completing 6 yrs of H1 and before I even filed 485). I didn't postpone it till I got EAD.
I left my employer who had filed for my labor in 2004 because he started acting up at the end of my project and started GC process with new employer well into my 6th year.
I do understand some people run to IV only in time of need. But all I am saying is not to paint everyone with same brush. Even if you think about people who want anything to do with IV only when there is need, lets try winning them over rather than stating the obvious and ridiculing them.

There are too many assumptions here. How I see this situation is;
EB3 I will not move significantly unless and until oversubscribed EB2s become current. Even then, it cannot be taken as granted because the demand of EB2s can take all the spill over and be current without spilling to EB3. USCIS will eventually make the change once they see that EB3 has significant retrogression and there is a lot of noise made about it.
The solution I see is; we can make a valid presentation showing the effects of this spillover change in the long run and how EB3s will be affected seriously.
If DOS continues with this interpretation of spillover then there is a very small (tiny) window coming up in third quarter of FY 2010 (Apr'2010) where we might see some spillover to EB3. Here is how:
Currently there are total 4050 (EB1) + 74932 (EB2) = 78982. These are mostly pre-adjudicated and waiting for VISA numbers.
Total allocation for new FY is 140K out of which 40K (28.6%) will go to EB3. So EB1 and EB2 will have 100K left but their total demand is only 78982. So these 21K numbers will be left which will be used for new applications recieved under EB2 category.
When PD for EB2-I/C moves forward, there will be more applications coming in because many EB2-I/C people have their labor approved and they are waiting to file their I-485. However, when these new applications comes in, they are NOT processed yet and their background check is not clear yet. So even if visa numbers are available for them, they are not ready to be approved.
So at this time we poor EB3 people can hope some mercy from DOS and we hope that DOS might spill those remaining 21K numbers to EB3 so we don't waste any numbers while USCIS is adjudicating those newly recd applications under EB2.
If this 21K spillover happens then we EB3-I have to hope for another mercy from DOS that they give these 21K spillover numbers strictly based on Priority dates in EB3 and not based on EB3-ROW first and then EB3-C and then EB3-M/P and then EB3-I. We expect DOS to give these spillover based on PD and not based on country of chargeability. If that happens then all these numbers will go to EB3-I and we might see it moving to 2003.
And this is a fair expectation from DOS that they give spillover numbers based on PD because that is what they are doing in EB2-. When EB2-ROW numbers goes to EB2-I and EB2-C they go based on PD and hence EB2-I gets most of the numbers.
My two cents. Please post your comments on my theory.
If we all EB3 agrees to above theory then we should seek help from IV to make sure that spillover to EB3 happens based on PD whenever it happens.
Thanks.

The AILF is an affiliate of the AILA and its litigation arm. They are seeking the victims who would participate as plaintiffs in the lawsuit by the organization against the government agencies relating to the outrageous and lawlessness of the agencies involving the management of immigrant visa numbers and implementing the visa bulletin in compliance with the law. Please contact your attorneys if you are willing to participate in the lawsuit. :confused:

so far we have 32 votes on this poll. I thought the # of EB3 ROW in this forum is in hundreds. please guys advertise for this poll in other web sites and tell more people in the EB3 ROW category to vote. this will helps us all to have an idea about the # of existing PD in the pipeline.
Thank you

Actually I saw an improvement for 03/20. 6 approvals for that day then it's back to no approvals.
Looks like approvals has slowed down further.
This is why at the end of the year there are unused visas. All due to inefficiencies of USCIS.
We are doomed.

Going by the discussions over there (http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/6/18/22435/0365), my gut feeling is all PERM cases will be reviewed, in one form or other.

My employer filed Labor 90 days after the job posting (6 months after I initiated the process, this is after being screwed by my previous employer for 2 years)...Labor was aproved in less than 45 hours!!!

I am actually very dissappointed with myself. In the post rally MC fluster, I had made a mental note to introduce Logiclife and then give him a flower. But I hear he strongly opposes measures such as this :)
I had also promised to get Macaca on the stage and write with colorful Sharpies on his forehead.
Its probably best I forgot both...
Yes, Logiclife is a bit touchy about the flower issue. But its all good

I guess we have enough people convinced and for those short sighted ones will have an option whether they want to get naturalized or live on their dear GCs so by that time if they educate themselves they will be convinced too.
Now what are the next steps in chanelling this effort through IV Core?
IV Core, please go through this thread and consolidate all the valid and genuine points and consider this for the phase 2 campaign...

I guess DOS/DHS won't provide all documentation, just like recent firing of US attorney.
They didnt provide docs for the US attorney firings because Bush cited "Executive privilege" ... there is no such "privilege" in this case .... Bush hopefully had nothing to do with the DOS/USCIS screwup :)

This is the only escape route they have.
Nothing else would calm down all potential lawsuits.
I would be very surprised if they start working on cases submitted in July even if current and they get extra visa numbers. There are people like me who had submitted thier I-485s (with I-140) under EB2 back in August 2006 and were current back then. I'm still waiting.

I really like this idea. Core team should give this a serious thought. As macaca pointed out, it wouldn't make a difference to certain ppl, but should motivate quite a few others.

What should we do to pickup our file? Any thoughts appreciated
You really cannot do anything in a short time except hoping for the best. Two things have to happen for getting a GC (i) Your file should be or should already have been reviewed, and if all good to go, preadjudicated. That depends on your receive date by the Center processing your case (not RD on your receipt). This date is close to ND, and is often seen online as " your case was received on...". If this date is prior to published dates, your file definitely has been reviewed. Farther it is from the published date, lesser the chance, but approvals are indicating that if it is Aug, Sep, Oct 07 there is very good chance, though September has higher chance than October (ii) Your PD should be high enough. As per USCIS SOP preadjudicated files are piled in sequence of PD's.
Note that both conditions should be met before leftover visas exhuast. Third condition, which always plays significant role is, luck. This means, you hope that IO working on your case did not fall sick when he/she was about to look at your case, some document did not slip out of your file, person working on your case head proper eye glasses so as not to misread your PD as 2007, stack of preadjudicated cases did not fall down losing file sorting sequence, etc. etc.
Best wishes to you and all others.

Today I received e-mail from USCIS stating --> "Service records indicate that your case was approved and your I-551 card was mailed on May 9, 2011 to the address we had on file at that time. Please check with your local Post Office for undeliverable mail. Your document has not been returned to us. "
Looks like I am greened. But when I check my status on uscis.gov it shows "initial review" same from last 4 years, there is no LUD change also. I didn't receive any welcome e-mail or card production ordered. Is anyone in same scenario? Is this normal process?
