Below are some links for those who are looking for visa stamping related 'disaster' stories.... I think this is a lost cause since the DOS/DHS really does not care...justice and fairness is probably not in their dictionary.

Dear FinalGC,
This answer reallys helps. Thanks for the same.
Along with the budget amount what are other typical metrics for "large" projects like schedule, no. of resources etc. ?
Is there a website or other resource where this type of data is collected and we can take a look at it ?
Thanks in advance for your response.

Despite of my request on RED dots and interpretation issues,
Some one gave me a RED dot for this posting. It is as follows
1. Interpretation issues... 10-21-2008 03:40 PM What is "con traversal" dear ? ))
Guys, we need keep away these kind of people from IV participation. There should be some restrictions (rules and regulation). These are the people who don't know what they are doing. GOD only can save them.
We are here for to work and live and represent as a forum to fight against a broken system. Looks like we have issues among us.
We either take away GREEN/RED dot concepts from bothering others or do some thing else (display who has given RED/GREEN dots).
Core member do some thing.
The least you can do is ignore the dots, the more you talk and complain, there are people wanting to give you more, it is like this.. the more I listen to Shawn Hannity, the more I turn democrat.

yea this is correct. a member named united nations posted a detailed break down on immigration portal a few months back. This has been implemented by the DOS by suspending the AC21 rule of a variable cap and enforcing a hard cap of 7%. This was mentioned in the november or december 2005 bulletin.
From my perspective I think its a travesty that when the UCIS and the DOL has classified some of us as "exceptional" aliens, we can still not adjust our status because we were born in India or China while Mexicans with the same qualifications can. If the country limit is to avoid monopolization of numbers and enhance diversity...all categories for Mexico should be "U"

The following is from November 2005 visa bulletin published October 2005.
"During FY due to anticipated heavy demand, the AC21 provisions are not expected to apply, and the amount of Employment numbers available to any single country will be subject to the 7% cap."
Well, now I realized it is not DOS but again its me who was not upto date with the trend. This means that India cannot go beyond its 7% using unused visas. In the same bulletin there is something that indicated that it allocated too many visas to India in the past. Most likely DOS does not take any action until ROW eb3, eb2 and eb1 are current. Now I have also understood why the perm is necessary at the this time for row. Perm helps row move faster thatway in the loooooong run helping India when all the row is current.
There will not be any spillover to any India categories in the near future. This is the reason why India eb2 went unavailable. EB1 will soon follow the case. Eventhough eb3 moves, it was like unavailable for a long time. 1400 greencards a year in each category (excluding spouses from this ordeal) is hardly enough for India. I doubt there would be any encouraging direction in future as India had consumed too many visas in the past years. This is sort of balancing act as far as DOS is concerned. Only a change of heart can save India.
This is really bad for India as most of the people applied for 485 after spending nearly many years in BEC (that itself a retrogression). With Philly clearing non-rir 2001 eb2 labors, can't wait to see october's eb2 retrogression dates.
I wouldn't care about where the overflow/spillover goes as it is not for India.
Atlast, the email from murthy.com about eb2 visas going unavailable did not surprise me. My parents named me right and I am an enlightened person now.
In the past it is not just where u came from but also where u r that determined ur fate. People living under some fast processing centers like illinois got their G.C very fast. Most of the 50k (Indians) odd G.C's in Employment category were with PD in 2003/2004.
Most of the guys back west in C.A and other slow states lost those 2001 PD when their Labors went nowhere and most changed jobs in 2002 due to the tech bubble.
USCIS has a strange way of dispensing justice. Suspending rules whenever they mess up. I would not be surprised if they wasted another 10-20k VISA numbers in the last year.

You are the first guy who wrote a sensible post regarding CIR. Most if not all people here are delusional when it comes to CIR. I don’t trust Obama and Durbin to do any justice for Eb immigrants. The democrats agenda was always the illegals, as far as we EB are concerned they would prefer that we just get kicked out through endless RFE harassment from USCIS. The fact is republicans don’t like non whites to immigrate to US and the democrats are color blind to most extent but they are class conscious, they like illegals and poor people to immigrate to US because they can control them whereas they cannot control and herd the EB immigrants. So when the negotiations for CIR start Republicans will oppose any immigration so the democrats will strike a bargain with the republicans where they will ask for amnesty for illegals and in return they will happily throw the EB community under the bus by saying they are "reforming" the US immigration system by introducing a points based system where even existing applicants like the EB folks who have been in US for the last 10+ years have to re apply in points based nonsense system. Before people get angry ask yourself this question
1. Was there a visa recapture in the last CIR (don’t confuse with the first CIR which was passed by Arlen Specter which was the best CIR, it had visa recapture, it had STEM exemption)
2. Did it have Stem exemption i.e. exempt people who earned a Master and PHD from American universities from yearly green card quota?
3. Did it eliminate country quota.
4. Did it at least give an amnesty\interim type green card deal to honest legal EB folks like they gave to illegals?
The unfortunate answer to all those is a "NO" and this was when the president was Bush a republican, now you have Obama as the president and Durbin as his right man in senate. Does anybody really expect Justice for EB from these two?
Having said this I am not saying lose hope and pack up your bags. We will all have to fight for our cause but don’t have unrealistic expectations from CIR. Our best bet is a non cir piece meal bill visa recapture bill that addresses EB issues seperate from CIR, it is difficult to get such a bill passed but the chances for such a bill are better then Obama-durbin cir
And yes. CIR....NO BODY knows the final form in which it will pass and what impact would it have on legal EB immigration....no way to tell. I have no basis to say this but this is just my personal opinion: For all of us on this forum going through immigration process; our best bet is to get something before CIR actually passes and comes in to the play....I do not have good feeling about CIR.

What about if the I-140(EB2) rejected?. The 485 will be rejected too?. What are the possibilities of I-140 rejection?
Thanks
The request to adjudicate I-485 will go out only after EB-2 I-140 is approved. I-140 rejection "should" not trigger your pending EB-3 I-485 rejection but it all depends on how the IO interprets your case. He could issue an RFE (I would guess) asking for an EVL for your EB-3 case. In my colleague's case however, TSC automatically adjudicated the I-485 since the new EB-2 I-140 carried the same Alien# as the pending I-485. It seems TSC has a system in place to identify such cases, NSC doesn't. Another colleague of mine whose I-485 is pending at NSC and EB-2 I-140 approved at TSC is still waiting for I-485 approval and its been a month since his I-140 was approved.

My manager surprised me today saying that I was promoted yesterday from a programmer analyst to a systems analyst. I have an approved i-140 and have filed my 485. My priority date for EB3 is current. I also have a 3 year extension of H1B.
There is no change in the job responsibilities.
Question:
1. How soon should I file my AC21 request?
2. What is the impact of this promotion on my H1B?
3. I have waited for 7 years and I may be close to getting my Green Card. How does the AC 21 impact my pending 485?
I declined my promotion. My manager said that it would take a lot of effort to unwind this promotion. He was not pleased with my request.
Any ideas?
I am sorry, but this is just plain paranoia that seems to affect a lot of GC holders & aspirants. I have a friend who was worried about changing jobs as it was only 6 months since he got his GC!
You are *not* required to file AC21. Even if you do, in your case, it should present no problems at all, as your role & responsiblities have hardly changed.
It is not a wise approach to deny a promotion when you are not clear about the law. First be clear on the law and then make such important decisions.

I travelled to India in December via Germany. I don't have a valid visa on my passport, but they allowed me to travel to India.
While coming back we have a valid US visa. I checked at Lufthansa counters in IAD airport and they said the transit visa is not required for immediate international flights.

If you talk to your medical office in advance to see that if they can give report in one day then it could be possible. Also you may consider your wife to get all vaccination in advance from the place where she is staying currently. Can't she prepone her trip by 1-2 days?
No she cant becuase her visa appointment is on Aug 13.

i think what you're saying is not just a plausible but most likely scenario.
i read on some lawyers website that everytime he/she's filed an AC21 letter to show change of jobs he's gotten an RFE for the petitioner.
so that is why many lawyers recommend against sending any notification to USCIS regarding job change using AC21.
Going back to the supplemental AC21 memo:
Imagine an IO who has a very bad mood for the day. Then he receives an AC21 letter for the case he is processing and saw that the i-140 of the person is not yet approved.
And he thought: "Oh....I would raise an RFE for this and see if the previous employer still respond to it".
Do you think this is a plausible scenario?

thats a good idea, and at the same time we also need to show our numbers.
I would say, lets make this a $5 monthly membership org. IV can help you much more than your Immigration attorney can.
I'm not aware of any one else who directly deals with USCIS and with chambers of govt.
Yes focus is needed right now, since after 4 years CIR is off the table and its time for piece meal bills which need renewed campaigning
Many are a bit selfish just concerned with their particular case and want a quick answer, but don't want to help the high skilled community as a whole.
you can click on member list and just on top the current count is 45,676
Tony, IV core is not even willing to consider the $12/yr idea, leave alone $5/mth.
Send a message to Pappu and see what he says.

You'll be surprised how racist they are towards Chinese and Indian people, especially when they are discussing amongst themselves in private forums. Not only that, they even malign any sane level-headed Caucasian American who speaks out against their approach.
