About 2 weeks back Murthy posted an article in it's bulletin "new AC-21 regulations expected soon" http://www.murthy.com/mb_pdf/050208_P.html which i believe was a result of some discussions USCIS had with AILA?
Now is this new AC-21 memo released today the one being referred to in the above mentioned Murthy bulletin? OR i should still hold my breath for more AC-21 changes coming from USCIS, so they can jeopardize status of people by changing their interpretation of laws every now and then? Anyone?
From Murthy:
AC21 Regulations under Revision
The liaison notes made brief reference to an AC21 regulation being under revision, with publication expected in the near future. AC21 became law in October 2000 and has been interpreted through a series of Legacy INS and USCIS memos, rather than regulations. There have been previous announcements of anticipated regulations on AC21, so it is unclear whether something is finally in the offing.

In my case I got a hard LUD followed by a soft LUD on 9/24/2008 and the message was the same. I was very confused if my case was transferred to NBC as I was going out of the country and did not want to miss the interview if anything came up.
After numerous attempts like calling NSC, making an inquiry through the congress rep and taking an Infopass appointment I was still not sure what was going on. Had already been through the NSC->CSC->NSC xfer and this new transfer again, god knows where!!
This thread kind of calmed me a bit as it clearly showed that I am not the only person who is seeing this message.
So, in effect this thread definitely helped me and am sure helped some other folks as well.
This is a discussion board and I don't think you can classify anything as being dumb or foolish. If you are a master at knowing rules and interpreting them better than others GOOD FOR YOU!
it probably means.. they are opening each and every mail they have recived and checking if the docs are in order or not..if they are.. they file it...else they send an RFE...
i dont understand..how someone can be so f@#$% dumb as not know this simple procdure..
there are so many posts..i got a LUD what not.... its annoying...
its like.. USCIS touched my lu(n)d..will i get a GC now..
grow up ..
i may have offended some purists on this board.... idgaf..<:-|

you are correct. the new memo requires the adjudicator to approve the old i-140 first and then determine eligibility for porting. it doesn't mean that you can't port if i140 has not been approved.
actually that is not what i understand...though we should wait for
1. some lawyer to come up with clarifications.
2. updates to the adjudicator field manual.
i think this still upholds the memorandum with regards to porting off on unapproved i-140. if you notice the case they have cited "Matter of Al Wazzan" is date Oct, 2005 where as the favourable Yates memo came out in Dec 2005.
what i understand is that they are just reiterating that porting off on unapproved i-140 is not automatic and requires that the adjudicator decide on the pending i-140 first before deciding wether the porting off is protected under AC21 or not.
but again...i myself am waiting for clarifications from immigration law websites like murthy.com and immigration-law.com etc.

What does this mean? That there are not as many approved labor cases as anticipated originally by the USCIS????
"F. VISA AVAILABILITY DURING THE COMING MONTHS
Recent discussions have indicated that both the Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) and the Department of Labor still have a significant amount of cases in their backlog reduction efforts. As a result, the anticipated increase in demand has not yet materialized and may not for some time. Therefore, in an effort to maximize number use under the annual numerical limit, the Worldwide and Philippines Employment Third preference cut-off dates have been advanced by one year.
Unless there is a significant increase in Employment demand, it will be necessary to continue this rate of movement during the upcoming months. Such movement could be expanded to include other chargeability areas and preference categories.
One consequence of rapid cut-off date advancement is the inevitable increase in demand for numbers as adjustment of status cases are brought to conclusion at CIS Offices. Such increased demand could have dramatic impact on the cut-off dates. Readers will be provided as much advance notice as possible should this occur."

we have over 25000 members and it has been 2 weeks but we are still waiting to reach 300 :-(
I don't get it!!
~300 people came forward to raise $30000 in one week.
Not even 100 people voted that they have sent their letters? Something's not right.

Eb3Retro,
Did you drive car on High Way over the speed limit and got ticket.
And passer by drivers at Higher Speed than you. Can you point police for stopping you.
So don't tell that you are fine and everybody is fine.
What if someone here saw your postings (800+ posting guru) and travels wihtout Transit Visa and Aitport people ask for Transit Visa and missed flight--- Have to stay at Airport for hours.
Try to accept rules guys....

Hi Shana
But the nature of the job responsibilites are same but i believe the Job code may change b'cos of the Title.
I believe it is not a problem, I have read in other threads. but I would suggest lot of attorneys are only taking 300 or 500 dollars to file aC21. it is worth spending.
Good luck

Its okay, some folks do not see in-direct benefit to them, but once they see the value they will stop complaining. We shouldn't just stop due to opposition. I agree this doesn't provide direct benefit to all and it is expected that people will oppose. It is the nature of human being, I bet if you start a debate over EB-2 & Eb-3, lot of people from EB-3 will complain and who are from EB-2 will be all over to save their spot in queue, and those who have jumped from Eb-3 to Eb-2 will just be silent watchers. I don’t blame them either, this is the irony of being EB I/C, which builds so much frustration. But given the current situation, we have not been able to get anything accomplished in last year or so, and no big CIR in near future, we should start looking for ways to get small fixes, could be recapture, five year EAD-AP, discounting dependents, etc. There are so many avenues we could explore, don’t know which one may work, but if it works if benefits everybody in one way or other.

Every time US STEM is mentioned, some losers shout it down. Not that it matters, but just shows the amount of support this idea has among desis.
The general idea in a desi mind is "why should this other guy get his GC first".
Good idea, but will not work since people cannot think outside the box. Most people think that if I cannot get a GC why should the guy in the next cubicle (who has a US Master's) get it. They don't realize that by taking the US Masters out of the regular queue, they would probably get their GCs faster :)

I am currently on H1B visa and I want to switch the company. New company is not willing to do H1B transfer and want me to work on EAD. I have pending I485 EB3 ROW with priority date of March 2006. Its been more than 180 days that I filed for I485 so I can use AC21 with EAD.
But my question is how risky will it be if I switch job at this stage with EAD?
Thanks in advance,
BK

Actually the SU-30MKI beat both the F-15 and Eurofighter in training with the US and RAF, and is developed jointly by HAL.
Eurofighter has also invited India to partner in its development
So ? What is it got to do with my comment or immigration?

Let me acknowledge..This thread made me easily come out of holiday blues. Above thats its friday...!!!!
My take on this situation....ask your freind to apply for concurent H1b's..it works out well with concurent wives...!!!!:):):) He can bring one wife on each visa..!!!!
Yeah right! Do you really think that these women would qualify for skilled labor under H1?
Anyway, they could try getting their LCA with following information and apply for H1.
Client � Husband
List of duties - Nagging, sobbing, yelling, demanding, gossiping, fighting, scolding, complaining, irritating, urging, nerve-racking, tormenting, annoying, upsetting
Work location � His peace of mind
Work duration � Equivalent to his lifespan
Prevailing wage - Equivalent to his entire earnings
Finally a kind hearted IO might think that they are really something and approve the petition ;).

I am trying to keep track of 2004 cases. I think USCIS is not doing fair justice by not giving preference to 2004 cases. Please post your priority date, I-140 approval dates(if approved), I-485 received dates, Name check cleared date(if cleared), finger print cleared date(if you gave finger prints and they got cleared)
My Details :
PD : 12/23/2004
I-140 Approval Date :05/03/2007
I-485 Received Date : 07/26/2007
Name Check Cleared.
Gave Finger Prints.
I think mine is straight forward case. :confused:
I am not an expert in starting a poll - But I think it will help to take a headcount for /year PD basis.
Esp. 2002,2003,2004,2005,Until June1,2006 cases. Proportion of which could serve as some kind of estimate - Can be cross checked with for sanity.

I am not expecting any sympathy from you. I am just sharing the common problem that people are facing with the horrendous situation. We all need empathy. Blaming and flaming at someone doesn't help. Since it is a platform for all immigrants who are facing a common problem with our green card, I am just sharing my feelings.
