Doctors are EB2 and EB1.
They are not EB3
Even Physical therapists are EB2.
EB3 are low level/entry level programmers or skilled workers with with undergraduate degree or diploma degree holders that use education evaluation service to prove that their diploma is equivalent to an undergraduate degree.
Now some of you will say you have masters degree and still are EB3. It does not matter if you have a undergraduate degree from IIT or Harvard and have MBA from Harvard. If your job needs only undergraduate degree your master degrees are useless. You are working in a wrong job and overqualified for your job. You should look for another job that needs your american masters degree. Some will say that their lawyer filed in EB3 even though they qualify for EB2. Now that is also a wrong excuse. If your lawyer and HR screwed you, it is your fault that you could not stand up to them. It is not USCIS fault.
News: You make no sense. Why don't you get out of here back to your asylum?

my lawyer told me that dates will definitely move ahead next month. He was confident about it after talking to his contacts at USCIS i guess.

Just curios and keeping my fingers crossed for our case.

EB3 ROW is at Jun 2004. But as per latest USCIS inventory, EB3 ROW pending 485's are around 48,000. Visa numbers available every year for EB3 is approximately 42k. If you deduct the backlogged EB3 countries (4x3000) visa numbers, the total comes down to 30k for EB3 ROW. So EB3 ROW should become current or atleast Jul 07 in another 1.5 years. If this is not going to happen, it means they are diverting the EB3 numbers to some other categories.
my 2 cents
Note : If EB3 ROW has 30k visas per year and pending EB3 ROW 485's are only 50k.. why it is still hanging in 2004. God only knows !!
I was curious too about EB3 ROW not progressing. The only explanation could be that there were lot of consular cases with older PDs. (Or USCIS chose to ignore EB3 altogether. Remember the couple of hundred EB3-I visas wasted by USCIS recently.)

CIR !!!! --> Not until 2011 at least based on the current political climate, etc IMO.
For EB3 (All countries) to see some light, the changes made recently to the allocation of excess visa, spill over and also to over subscribed countries need to be revisited. Not sure, what triggered USCIS / DOS to revise the interpretation after so many years. Did IV had any role on this, or not .. do not know.. I ask this as based on all forum updates, IV appears to have little success in the Admin Fix area. I have posted this so many times in various threads and did not get an answer, may be there is none. If the interpretation was somewhat like before, EB2 /3 both would have got the spillover... and all would have benefited in the order of PD. Now with the new interpretation. all excess / spillover visa just goes only to 2 countries (EB2 India / China). Looking at the latest numbers based on USCIS website, China has far less cases compared in India based on the cut-off date, which is good for India (EB2), as they now consume a big chunk of the numbers and rest are left out for now. I am not sure, what is opinion on this from folks from ROW (EB3) on this. Does IV has any comment on this... Having said this, I have nothing against Eb2 or EB2 India specific, and not getting into the argument whether or not EB2 need to given much preference.. (Well DOS allocated on 28.6% of total numbers to both this category). This is just my concern on the changes to interpretation for the visa spill over process.
I agree with you completely. No rules were changed anywhere but DOS/USCIS changed the interpretation of spillover. Who approved this changed on whose authority?
In worst case, they should be giving equal share of spillover to both categories purely based on PD. So if 40K numbers are spilling over from EB1 and EB2-ROW then EB2-I/C should get 20K and EB3-ALL should get 20K.

If they accept all 500k I-485 application. They will have more than 140k cases eligible for approval every year. I don�t see any visas will get wasted.
I agree, i am afried that this is going to back fire and would let USCIS waste visa numbers and we all can continue our wait ever after. Nice job

You are laying your own immaturity out there by rambling on and on about vague facts and statements only to make the same point again and again - that you think IV does not represent EB3. Why dont you state that one line and save us the trouble of reading your meaningless drivel??
yes, this rant is oft repeated by around 5-6 members who do NOT represent the thousands of EB folks (EB2 AND EB3) who are affected by this mess.
So before you start one of your long drawn essays again, step back and THINK (which you do not seem to be doing at all..or are not capable of doing) about whether you are contributing even one bit to solving the problem or trying to add to the problem. we can do a lot more if we spend less time trying to drill sense into wayward people like you.
Think about -
1) how many lawmakers you have met till date to resolve the EB3 problem (which you accuse IV of not solving). Have you asked a lawmaker while per country limits cannot be removed....an act which will remove all EB3 backlog??
2) how many IV advocacy events have you attended?
Yes forever_waiting it is surprising and shocking to see how a discussion on an EB Bill which will never see the light of the day has degenerated into an oft-repeated rant
By using the keyword
oft-repeated (i will ignore the word rant because only an immature mind will call the other side of a discussion as rant) it
would imply that many EB3 members have raised the same concern in this forum before and i am not the first and believe me when i say this i will not be the last also. So that would mean a whole bunch of people (remember eb3 are 50 k and eb2 are 12k) have the same concern and they have raised the same concern in this same forum so that would mean IV is aware of the concern.
Now what has
IV done about it ??
Meeting a lawmaker with the support of IV behind you is not a reflection of a big effort on your side. The power behind that is IV. Now for me or any other EB3 to meet a law maker is not something i would consider an effort since EB3 are willing to put the same effort which you are putting only if they believein what they are doing. To believe a person needs to feel that they are working for a cause that will impact their situation. Sadly this is missing and that is why EB3 people are cool about the whole meet the law maker process
Regarding the statement I repeat the IV provisions which are for ALL EB and not any specific category/country. THe problem with EB3 is the with the way the EB system/inventory is set-up. What specific steps has IV articulated to resolve the specific issue of EB3
By your own definition this is a chronic issue and what we are taught is that any issue which is chronic needs to be redressed and when it is not it becomes a big issue which cannot be handled
As always, there is the name calling stating that EB3 people aarmchair critics and winers but you are part of a community and you have issues you will air your greviences in the same community not to some one who has no idea or does notcare about it
What is really suprising and shocking is that in EB community itself EB2 does not care to listen and provide and open discussion about EB3 issues. Now according to me that is shocking
BTW i commend your effort of meeting the law maker but if you introspect the only reason you are making an effort is because you believe your efforts will bear fruit in the form of a GC soon (I believe you are EB2 with a priority date of Apr 08)

These view points are different and relavant depending on the places we are living. What is right in rural Texas is not same with that in bay area.
If Slumdog and his ilk is happy with their quality of life! Let them be. Just as xycgc mentioned, dont ever default and leave the burden to the rest of the citizens.

In a way, we are all doomed, by owning or renting the house, with the impending tax increases because of carelessness of a few.

Hello Friends,
Got a chance to speak to a customer service advocate at NSC. A very nice lady looked up my case and told me the case is with an officer. She also added I will be hearing something very soon. So keeping my fingers crossed. I always wondered if the cases made to an IO only when a visa number was assigned to the case or whether the case went to the IO first and then they looked to assign a numbers. Don't know - but will hopefully hear some good news soon. Good luck to all of you.

Let me guess. You have a friend or a relative in the H1 que. And this H1 applicant is either getting education in US or is not going to be an employee of a consulting firm.
No. You got me wrong. I have friends filing through consulting firms. You got me wrong completly. Outsourcing/offshoring firms are completely different from Consulting firms. Consulting firms files new h1s and get the people here to work for their clients. This is good to new prople who wants to come here legally, to US busincsses and to everybody (except for anti-immigrants). But Outsourcing/offshoring firms file lot of H1s and do not use them. Thats the problem. If they use, it is not going to be a problem.
Second guess: You have a US degree or you are not working for a conslting firm.
This is also wrong. I don't have any US degree. Also, I am working as Consultant from past 3 years. I worked with different big clients as a conultant. This is how it works in US. Again, Consultancy is different from Outsourcing/offshoring.
Why do you think the spouses on H4 do no deserve H1? If they want to work, why do you think that they should not compete in the job market?
I said they deserve to apply for H1. You got it wrong.
BTW, the companies you are cursing, TCS, Wipro, Satyam etc., it is possible that soon the H1s applied by these companies will be exempt from numercial limit. Yes, you heard me right. Here is a bill that would make companies providing scholarships to undergrad and grad programs to be exempt from H1 numerical count. This is not a joke, read for yourself: :p
I am not agaist the consulting or competition or anybody who wants to work here legally. I am againt the wastage of H1s. Applying them and not using them is a problem. By the way, where was the law to excempt those so called outsourcing firms from numerical H1 cap? Can you please provide the link? If there is one, then there is no chance of reaching cap so fast. No firm is going to waste the money by filing H1 and not allowing them to work is US after getting it except for Outsourcing firms. It is a fact, agree it or not.
H1 cap problem is there in 1990s also before Congress increased the cap to 195K. But it was solved when increased the cap to 195k and we saw so many H1 visas on 2001, 2002, 2003 are un-used. Samethng might happen even now if Congress increases it to 200K. Since we have less visas, everybody tries to grab a slot, But if we have enough visas (200K cap), then nobody is in a hurry to apply like the one happened this year.

and what will this walk create awareness abt...during this period of recession and uncertanity???
hey white boy...help me get my GC..so that i can take ur job and u can go flip burgers !
Hi PointlessWait,
The three events we will be walking/running as a Team are about getting our organization's name out in the open. This can help increase membership and further financial support for IV. By getting our name out there, we are sure to encounter more legal immigrants who may not be aware of IV as a resource. Thus introducing them to IV and providing them with a support network for their future immigration issues.
I have introduced this concept to several of my friends all of whom are US Citizens and each of them support legal immigrants who are here in the US working honest, legal jobs. Each of them have already promised that they will join Team IV and support the fundraising of $300 per Individual Member to support IV's longterm lobbying efforts.
IV has had some very significant successes over the past year and your continued support via Team IV can help with IV's long term goals.
I hope you will join us in this campaign!:)
Thanks,
NolaIndian
