Also, lot of EB1 guys working through consulting companies - negotiate there Green Card to be filed as EB1 before joining them.
And Consulting companies can show anything they want..any hierarchy/structure etc.
On the other hand, actual PHD does have lot of knowledge , publishing paper is daunting task which needs lot of research and originality.

Let us see if we can beat last year's funding drive
I am happy to report that within the first 4 days of this campaign we have already hit a potential fundraising total of $3,500!!!
We need to keep this campaign moving forward, we need IVians to support this cause! Our goal by end of Year 1 is $45,000!!! We need your support to make this initiative a success.
Lets get IV's name out on the national stage by showing our presence at these events. Imagine the impact we will have when they see Team IV walker/runners in Immigration Voice T Shirts at the finish line of all the three walking/running events we have picked and at several other local events as well.
Go IV, Go Team IV!!:)

Everywhere I am seeing few EB-3 india folks showing concern about the grim outlook for EB-3 india due to retrogression, noone else care about this.
It looks like many EB-3 RoW folks are relying on the VISA spillover to them and becoming "c" very soon....I dont see any reactions at all from those members either on or IV forums.
Writing to US senators and Congress Reps is the way to get some relief for EB-3 india. Each one of us should write our own story and present this USCIS pending inventory to them and educate them on how long it will take for us to receive LPR status without any releif from US congress.
VISA recapture will be easier to pass in US congress and IV should start campaign for VISA recapture. IV will receive lots of funding if they initiate this campaign as many EB-3 india folks are willing to donate for this cause.
Hi Raju,
You hit the nail on its head. The Eb3I participation is very very less. Look at EB2 specific threads. There are 25000 views. EB3I specific threads is a mere 2000. In fact EB3I is supposed to be a biggger group.
Here are my theories:
- EB3I guys lost hope in IV and stopped visiting IV
- EB3I guys work in low level jobs without access to Internet even in office or home (certainly cannot be the case)
- EB3I does not know about IV at all for the past 4 years (hmmm...)
- EB3I just bury their heads in sand looking for a miracle
This is a bigger problem than the EB3I backlog problem.
I know many guys in this forum who are regular contributers are missing here. What really is going on?

Dear Elaine Chao,
As a responsible member of Governance of the Department of Labor, could you please explain to the hard working employees who pay Social Security and Taxes and exist legally in the country, why the Department is not processing their applications for Labor Certifications and Petitions for Legal immigrant status expeditiously?
You are responsible to ensure that these applications are dealt with expeditiously and decisions communicated urgently. Current delays and backlogs indicate irresponsibility and lack of administrative acument on the part of the Department. A search online on the internet will be an enriching and educative experience for you and your Department on the efficiencies of your Department and employees.
You are requested to kindly implement processes and policies that ensure maximum efficiency and effectiveness in dealing with applications. I, like hundreds of others are unable to understand the delay in adjudicating an application with bonafide requests. Audits requests are perfectly understandable. So is the requirement for responses within 30 days. However, what is in comprehensible is the inordinate delay in review of the requested documents and communicating the decision.
I am hoping this Department will take notice and move towards the path of efficiencies soon. It is unfathomable that a Department of your importance is unable to handle requests of a few hundred applications each month. We have heard of US losing the COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE. This is just another example of the same. Lack of concern, skills, efficiency and mental wherewithal to conduct normal order of business efficiently.
I am looking forward to you taking the gauntlet and prove it wrong and process all backlogs expeditiously.
Help us take this country of immigrants to its old glory. Help us turn this economy back into the highs. Help us bring America to the edge of Technological Advances, Innovative and breakthrough products, never before seen R&D efforts.
Kind Regards,
PERM applicant with Audit response sent within 30 days and waiting for DOL to review the same since over 9 months and others!!!!

Letting all this Indian Consulting Firms taking ALMOST all the H-1B visas is very unfair for everyone of us that we are working hard to get a job in the US. In my opinion, they are trying to monopolize all the H-1B so no other company can be able to hire foreign professionals by themself. In this way their only way to get professionals is thru them.
It is very UNFAIR that this consulting companies takes a large number, getting almost everything, of H-1B visas without having a real job for them. This companies will offer this H-1Bs to other companies, making it a big business. Additionally, I believe that indians also pays to this consulting companies for the H-1B.
Even if the congress raise the cap without making changes in the system, it will never be enough. It will just increase the profit of this consulting companies. I only hope that the changes going to be introduced to fix the system will not screw us and complicate more the immigration process. But realistics and effectives changes are needed.
Good luck for everyone who are in the H-1B lottery and really need it.
It is very UNFAIR that this consulting companies takes a large number, getting almost everything, of H-1B visas without having a real job for them.
Why it is unfair? Largest beneficiaries of H1B program are consulting company like (name removed by OP) etc and they have real Jobs. It is an open market and anybody can apply for any number of H1b if they have so many positions. If you see the amount of business and expansion these companies going through you will find that they have so many positions available.
This companies will offer this H-1Bs to other companies, making it a big business. Additionally, I believe that indians also pays to this consulting companies for the H-1B.
These big firms don't offer H1Bs to other company. Small mom-n-pop desi companies offers H1Bs/labors to other people and and ask us to pay for this.
If you think use of H1B visas by these big consulting firms is unfair then what is the alternate visa type they use? L visas, B Visas or Z visas?

If anyone whose PD is earlier than mine, i truly apologize. Its not me, its USCIS. I have seen PDs same as mine getting approved 2 yr ago.
Stay tight and believe in yourself NOT USCIS.

I agree, a phone call or meeting in person will be much more effective if we can do that. And this situation definitely needs such attention. If one can't get time for this effort, he/she has no right to complain about it.
I think we need a good strategy to fix this and I believe any problem, with a good strategy, can be solved in reasonable time.
To press right buttons we need following
- Separate legal employment based immigration delays issue from other issues like (family based, J1, H1 etc.) Not that other issues are less important but diluted efforts won't we won't achieve results. SO concentrate on just one issue and press for it. For now let's just talk about those who are waiting for over 5-7 years for their green cards.
- Don't ask for CIR, increase/decrease quota or any change in existing laws but a swift one time executive order or a temporary introduction of a new law or something like that. Totally separate from current immigration law one time fix to existing problem.
- Immigration reform - you can do what ever with it whenever. We have a problem here we need a fix.
- Try to communicate this issue with your local media. Letters, phone calls, meetings can help up to certain extent but media can put issues on fast track. Long waits, restrictions in making life & family decisions and personal freedom are issues well understood by this country and these are the reasons why we are here. If you communicate these issues correctly everyone will understand. Put your story out on local news paper / radio. Get a local group set-up and get with your local cultural/ethnic group leaders who are enjoying their citizenship and freedom and ask them to get involved.
Let's get results, one step at a time.

Glad, you took pain to check and see all bulletins. Can you see India in 2003 bulletins? India was simple dispappeared from 2003 bulletins. It was no more "OverSubscribed" country as per INS. In reality in background Eb3 India was hold and almost all the year treated like step child by INS. EB2 India was doing good throughout 2003. Since bulletins kicked India out how can you know then? Mymajor source of information as usual was murthy.com and immigration.com. I vaguely remember murthy came up with one or two warning articles about "administrative" hold on Eb3 processing and severe future Eb3 retrogressions then.

Well....one good thing out of this is we know Kerry might be aware of our issues
and is positive towards us.
In the MA state chapter we have been focussing on Kennedy, but maybe now we should focus on Kerry as well.
What are core team's thoughts on this?
IV has not taken the credit for Kerry's inclusion.... then who did it ? Did Kerry on his own added this amendment ? I don't beleive it.... is their someone other than IV also working on our cause :confused: :confused:

Everybody, please calm down. I don't know what the intention of this thread was, but if it is to increase the participation to achieve IV's goals, then I am sure you all realize it is having the exact opposite affect. The only thing happening on this thread is donors and non-donors going at each other in a way of unbecoming of us professionals.
I am sure we can agree to disagree with respect. Think about some of the messages written and you wonder would it be really said if they were facing the person.
I personally don't think bitzbyte is or was berating IV's efforts. All he/she needs is more convincing. And I don't think he/she is alone. If that was the case then we would be having 49000 members donating and the advocacy effort would be a grand success and we would be having millions for lobbying. The fact is that there are more like bitzbyte than the donors. I am not sure where the problem is but there sure is. Heck, I am donor and I don't find myself talking about IV or hearing about IV from colleagues or friends. Everybody has their priorities set and the daily grind to go through. Getting a GC may not be everyone's ultimate goal. There was a time I used to be so obsessed with GC that my whole life seemed to be revolving around bulletins and the disappointment of backlogs. One day I said enough is enough and stopped worrying about it.
But I realized that the question is not about whether and when I get GC, but is it fair, to you and your family, to go through years of this agony. It is not fair and we have to do something about it.
As much as everybody needs IV to address their needs, IV needs them to achieve our collective goals. Lets think about ways to increase participation rather than marginalizing those that don't yet believe.
1. You have 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...?
