Try Senator/congressman + Ombudsman inquiry now. If you do not get a response or nothing happens, contact me. Let us see what we can do for people who are current since a long time.
Hi pappu,
I am planning to send a letter to Ombudsman DHS-7001.
Not sure if there will be any response. Even if there is one, they are going to say that my dates are outside the processing times.
Receipt date: July 9th, 2007
Priority Date: July 19, 2001. EB3. India.
What reason can I write for "Description of your case problem"?
Can I just mention that I am about to incur significant and unusual costs because of this delay?
I just wanted to give a try and see if this trigger my case. Please advice.
Thanks,

I am exploring the possibility of making the Inter-filing. I have been speaking to some well known, street-smart attornies. One mentioned that the "Priority Date" is decided only upon approval of I-140. He also wrote that for keeping the earlier priority date, the 2nd I-140 application (new) should be filed along with copy of the approval of the first I-140.
In your case, it appears that you did not send the approval copy of the first I-140 along with 2nd I-140 application.
Probably, you can send the approval of EB-2 I-140 with earlier PD, along with I-485 receipt copy to the Service Center and ask them to allot the earlier PD. Please take the assistance of attorney for doing this.

I would like to request all the senior members at IV to help us with these questions:
1. The official expected delay in visa issuance in case of extra processing is 3 weeks and the DOS has conveniently left the additional administrative processing delay open ended which in turn has left us all law abiding professional non-immigrant/immigrant workers out of our jobs, away from our families and friends and homes for an exceptionaly long time. Is this worthy of a lawsuit/class action lawsuit given the number of people who are suffering?
2. DOS officials refuse to inform the applicants why and where their applications are stuck and how much longer it is expected to delay. Is this worthy of a lawsuit/class action lawsuit given the number of people who are suffering? Why can't the DOS come out with a bi-weekly report on how many people applied for visas, who were denied and who are referred to AAP (and how long each AAP applicant has been delayed)?
3. DOS VISA/ US immigration law does not seem to have any mechanism to protect the rights (do we have any rights or not is also a question) of those who get delayed unjustly (unjustly because they do not have any known criminal background and yet are treated like criminals). Is this worthy of a lawsuit/class action lawsuit given the number of people who are suffering?
4. So many of us in the security check are getting delayed just because our names are similar to known criminals in the databases. I wonder how many people by the name of "Timothy" (of the Timothy McVeigh of oklahoma bombing fame) or other US citizens whose names are similar to people taking part in various conflicts around the world are delayed/denied entry into the country for so long because of this illogical association. Does this "similar name so you are a criminal too" policy of DOS lend itself to judicial review?
5. In many cases remember that justice delayed is justice denied (as many of us will not be able to return due to reasons such as job loss or delay beyond I-797 approved time.
Sorry for this long post but many of us have these questions in mind. If you could tell us what are the problems we can face (finances, resources, etc.) if lawsuit/class action lawsuit route is adopted it would be of great help. Are there any organizations in US who can take up our cause (such as ACLU). Even if you say that this will be a futile exercise, it will at least help us all accept our fate a little better.
Thanks in advance.

I started looking for a house soon after filing for my 485/EAD/AP in August 2007. I finally got a great deal (good price and low fixed mortgage interest rates) on a 14 year home in St Louis and then had to decide whether to wait for the EAD approval before buying the home. I decided to go ahead and buy the home.
My EAD was approved sometime back and looking at the turn of events leading up to buying the house, I realized that there is always an element of risk in committing to long-term investment without a GC. However I am sick and tired of the slow GC process and cannot keep postponing important decisions in life. We need to take risks at some point. I know with a March 2005 EB2 priority date, my dream of getting a GC is still many years away. But postponing important lifestyle decisions for later is too much of a price to pay.

I didn�t want to go to DC rally due to my surgery appointment (September 6th) because I can not fly for three weeks after the surgery.
Guess what?, I have postponed my surgery appointment date, booked tickets and going to DC rally on Monday evening and flying back on Tuesday night.
I also urge people to take a day off and attend the rally.
You are the man !!. You are leading by setting an example for others to follow. My prayers and good wishes for your travel and your surgery later on.

All the people who crib about red dots: There is nothing IV can do about it.
This is a feature of the forum software.If some one uses foul language in forum posts then admins can warn them or block them. It is not possible if they do it in comments.
Actuallly, I suggest IV kickout anyone who cribs about red dots or that someone is using foul language in PMs/comments.
Keep the eye on the ball guys. If you see all the bullshit the IV admins bare with some other guy showing up every few weeks asking questions as if IV Core is getting rich off of the contributions. And some other guy shows up with a great plan (no sarcasm intended) asking CORE to make his thread sticky instead of keeping the thread on top by bumping it every few hours or so.Then when the core doesn't respond to their idea/request to make the thread sticky start abusing them. They take all that in stride and still continue to pour their hearts into something they believe in.
Now here are people so worried that they got a red dot and need the grievance be addressed. If not they will be afraid to post. If all it takes some one to stop you from posting your ideas is to give a red dot, how can any progress be made?
Think about it people.

Agree with you Tony - there are so many members of this forum - I find it hard to believe that everyone's budget is so tight, that they cannot afford to divert $25 per-month to a cause that is going to help them directly.
I am not underestimating the value of $300 per-year, but compared to the value that this is likely to drive, it is certainly an investment that can provide handsome returns.
I would rather NOT believe that most people here are with a free-loader mentality - waiting for others to fund and drive the momentum, while they just keep yapping about their problems and concerns about the situation, laws, regulations, illegals, employers etc. etc.
In my opinion people are missing the big picture of that if everyone contributed, there could be significant momentum that could be created - a $25 per-month contribution could lead to a $500K monthly lobbying fund - which is a non-trivial amount to drive our agenda.
Thank YOU!!
Dude, I have been sparring with Pappu and Starsun for quite some time now. IV needs to be a "Paying Members Only" organisation.
Per some statistics regularly floating around here, IV has 40,000 odd members. A membership fee as small as $1/month!! ($12/year), will INSURE a steady flow of funds, that will make a HUGE difference.
Even if 20,000 of that 40,000 run away due to the $12.00/yr subscription requirement, that still leaves IV with almost a QUARTER million dollars worth of cash at hand, . True, it wil lbe hard work to keep the membership numbers up, but think about it, a smaller, more focused organisation, with enough liquid cash, to be able to hold events, rallys, make campaign contributions etc......

Ok, I've seen a lot of threads about go to the rally, actions items, I've reading a lot of guys saying dont ask for your receipt status, dont waste your time etc, etc.
Yes we did the rally we were great with all those signs, and appearing in the Indy TV but...
Question remains open:
1. When are they going to increase the GC quota?
2. When congress id going to do something?
I've the feeling that that's it we made our point but we are still with no GC, waiting receipts..............
I would strongly suggest you read the history of civil rights legislation.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_1964
Compared to civil rights movement ours is much smaller in size and strength. Change happens very slow in a democracy.

There are many people from these Indian Outsourcing companies who are switching to US comanies or even to local desi bodyshopping companies for various reasons...Like the ones below
1) If you are in US onsite, there is no guarantee that you would be onsite for the prolonged period you want. When the business need arises, you will have to go back at short notice. Most of the people quit these companies in US due to that reason alone.
2) They don't process GCs in general (very limited cases....)
3) Chances are that one may make more money based on the skill-set
However, if people continue to believe that these companies are just sort of "glorified body shoppers", nothing stops them.
But outsourcing is increasingly preferred by US corporates & these outsourcing companies are only going to prosper.....
Just the fact that you make more money outside is a proof of underpay.
also I read few months back that out of some 70K SWITCH ppl in usa, they filed GC for less than 100 employees. Do you think only 100 out of some 70K H1B wanted GC??? Another proof that they do not want their employees to move ahead.
Any way you argue, the truth is SWITCH is a glorified bodyshopper.
and that too glorified in india by indian media, not by US media.

After I heard from the Infopass IO that my case is all set and it is sitting in the NSC examination room, I have been trying my best to get my file to the attention of an IO at NSC. This is what I have done till now. Don't know if this would work. If not, what the heck?
1. Wrote to my state's senators
2. Wrote to Ombudsman
3. Wrote to my Congressman
4. Wrote to the President
5. Have opened a SR
6. My attorney is taking an Infopass appointment to see why it is stuck.
We 2004 guys are really out of luck. First BEC, then all these LC substitutions, July 2nd fiasco, and now this. Can't believe we got screwed in all the steps.

@ Seratbabu,
According to my lawyer, I-485 is applied by the applicant directly & not by company or lawyer. So, if you have received the I-485 receipts to your own address, then you will received RFE to your home address.

Kit your castle was wild, was it done from a photograph? Yeah, I used one of my old holiday snaps as a reference. One of the places I used to get taken on holiday to when I was a kid was up near Gloucester, and there was this old ruined castle. Used to love going there, and in the middle of this battle I suddenly remembered it and dug out my old photos. Had that next to me while I was drawing it. :)
