How about a candle night vigil outside all state capitals, one Friday/Saturday/Sunday evening? This is a symbolic gesture for the slow death of our green card dreams.

I am sure the awareness and the seriousness was missing among the locals!!
Educate them , that more imp.. this has to be worked on!
One thought I have is.. if we register people with a minimum amount and reimburse them at the day of the rally, many will turn up..!
I know of cases where people agreed to show up but when the d-day came by.. not one ticked!!
Great idea! Yet. we don't want the media taking pictures of our registration table handing out money to rally attendees (reinbursing). I can just see headlines like "Rally attendees paid/bribed to attend"
Our effort needs to come from our hearts. We need to do this for America, ourselves and our families because this is the right thing to do!

Because most of the people here have smoked a weed called CIR and are halucinating. This bill is digging our grave, people wake up and stop day dreaming, please start opposing this bill no cir period.
I am not sure why we are still behind this bill and wasting our money and resources,
everyone here needs to realize we don't need to sweeping legislative reform to address our concern, all we need few guidelines to impliment current law in more sensible way,
we simply don't have resources/strenght to address this issue letz not fool ourself anymore and letz put our moeny where mouth is

Alterego has a good point too. we need professional lobbist to organize more efficient events ( in American way ). we do have immigration lawyers association, but I guess they don't really represent us.
and besides another rally, we need persistent effort on this by a dedicated group of people, even some full time ( hired them, like a real job), to keep their attention, not just one strike.
I have to admire the unbelievable energy and commitment of you guys. Especially those who organized the rally and to some extent those who attended it from far away are probably tired and catching their breath!
We need to have some creativity and strategy in our next step. Rally after rally probably is not the best way to get that, the so called law of diminishing returns. The flower protest for example gave us a lot of visibility and media coverage since it was something intriguing and new. It was fairly inexpensive and got us the kind of coverage we wanted and arguably results that were out of size with the effort.
I think we need to think outside the box and have one more high publicity event. Another rally is certainly an option for later should legislative action heat up. I'm hopeful the upcoming legislation will allow someone to introduce friendly legislation. I am sure IV's lobbying advisers will have some input on timing etc. and I am pretty sure organizations like compete America etc. also will use this to push their efforts as well. IV core ought to be in contact with them.
A few very important things came from this rally. Firstly, that we can organize such an event, in no small part due to such a committed and capable leadership team. We got fairly good media coverage in highly visible newspapers, that covered not just the event but also some of the issues facing us in clear detail. Finally the lobby day events were definitely very good. I was amazed that 150 meetings took place.
To put this in context, large national organizations of some professions have these lobby days sometimes, and they do well to get about 100 lawmaker meetings done.
One thing I wish to add is that we must develop a good way of sending out many letters at will/as per the strategy of IV core to the lawmakers at critical times. We are 23K strong. Surely we can get atleast as many letters sent in to lawmakers at critical times. If you can't send a written petition to a lawmaker then I doubt it makes any sense to even think you or anyone can alter your fate, in that case time spent on sites like this is for what reason?
Professional organizations do letter campaigns all the time and get a good response. If everyone moves on these issues it does create a splash and can bring visibility and attention.
All ideas should be collected here in this thread.

Thanks. I do have my EAD. Just fearful that since I wont be at the 6 month period, I wont get to portability.
Does US immigration check up on this stuff? If so, how? I'm thinking that the Texas processing center (where my info is being processed) is too busy working on my papers (and other folks' papers) rather than inquiring about everyone's employment status.
Is this wishful thinking?

I find your comment hard to digest. I have a graduate degree and am experienced, I couldn'f find a job and I tried hard, not everyone succeeds, I am sure I am not the only skilled H-4 that couldn't get an H-1B even though tried hard. But that is not what I want to comment right now.
I understand your post during 2005, I do not get it now, when the L-1 spouses can work and if immigration laws are passed for the illegals to have work permits and let the spouses work, it will be completely biased for the H-4 visa holders. As per that there is no excuse for ignoring the H-4 laws you are right, there is no excuse for ignoring them but there is no excuse to let the L-1 spouses work and not the H-1b spouses. More so now with the illegal spouses, don't you think that we should be allowed to work?

Why can't we move from a free service to a membership based and see how many people still continue ... evenif with 25K members it is only a handful who are active and part of the initiative ... so I would suggest to go for a membership ...
it could be a per month basis or pay a big amount and get membership for life or year ... say $200 for a year or $20 for a month ... we don't need the number/mass unless they are active in all way ... just my thoughts ... hope the IV core team will consider that ... enough of free rides ... now pay for it and get the access to forums ... :mad:
On the ground of ethics and moral, I would not like to see that day but passive ones will be active to make that happen one day.

Well, I hope mine gets resolved sooner than 6-8 months! My EAD is already expired and I could not apply since there was nothing in the application where I could show my status which is PR.
TravInd, you are right about people not knowing the priority dates and not aware the GC was a mistake. In fact, I still don't know for sure if mine was a mistake. I will know only when I find it out through the lawyer. My previous lawyer who worked on my GC case said congratulations and everything was fine. I am eager to find out if it was a mistake on my own.
Just a hypothetical scenario.
Say an applicant is having PD of March 2005.
His/Her 485 gets approved with PD of Jan 2005. (may be a typo by CIS data entry person)
However at the time of approval, PD is current till June 2005. (he or she should have been approved anyway).
What would be the scenario? Thoughts? Any one????

Guys many have missed an important part of the bulletin. The Family based section , where F2A has advanced to July 2008 and also the below quoted excerpt from Dos in the Visa bulletin.
What this means is that there are a lot more of the family based visas which may not be used before the FY end. These visas will be included in the next years EB visas(for all EB's including Eb3). For 2010 we got about 9-10K excess. For FY 2011 that number will be significant. Also look at the murthy article on the FB visa subject.
MurthyDotCom : CIS Ombudsman's Office Addresses Key Issues (http://www.murthy.com/news/n_ombkey.html)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
D. VISA AVAILABILITY IN THE FAMILY-SPONSORED CATEGORIES
There continues to be extremely rapid forward movement of most Family preference cut-off dates. This is a direct result of the lack of demand by potential applicants who have chosen not to pursue final action on their cases, or who may no longer be eligible for status. The rapid movement provides the best opportunity to maximize number use under the FY-2010 annual numerical limitations. Should applicants eventually decide to pursue action on their cases it will have a significant impact on the cut-off dates.

I am a healthcare professional on an H-1B because I am not a nurse nor a PT so I don't fit into that elite Schedule A Club! Ironically, there is a far greater shortage of professionals in my field than in nursing (PT's are still in high demand), but I don't qualify for Schedule A so I'm stuck between two worlds. To be quite honest, I'd rather be stuck in limbo with you guys than to be grouped with them any way! Keep hoping, keep smiling and something good will happen!

Please contribute. Remember Anti's are sitting on millions of dollars and we the Hi-tech people can not even contribute $50K.

Is there anyway we can work on reporting fraud desi consulting companies to the USCIS so the fraud EB applications can be cleaned up from the system? That may help in clearing up the backlog. Believe it or not, many fraud desi firms have sponsored people in EB-2 successfully. I have worked with many such IT 'professionals' who can't speak a word of English and hardly have any idea what's going around them. I am serious here, this should be considered and evaluated. No offence meant to anyone but those who have had a wonderful educational background and don't work for desi 'firms' ought not to worry since this doesn't target them at all. I am just tired of fellow country men/women who have diminished our country's image, especially in the IT industry and am trying to think of solutions in addition to what we already have on IV's agenda.
So what do they really do at work ? do nothing and get the pay check ? no wonder banks need big loans from government
