I think the developments are great!!! USCIS secretary Emilio Gonzalez posting a message on the USCIS web site - this is GREAT NEWS!!! What we're doing is being acknolwedged!! It's a sign that this is working, and those up there are forced to take notice and act on it....
It may have sounded ridiculous initially, but GANDHIGIRI seems to be working even in our case!! Some times you have to think unconventionally, out of the box (to use a much abused and cliched term), innovatively, to get the kind of results you want.
Nobody thought sending flowers would change the hearts of USCIS/Dept of State.... and they would somehow agree to accept our AOS applications...
The fact is, this development means we're getting the deserved attention, imho. Can that can be anything but good news... ?
Kudos to whoever thought of this.... lage raho munnabhai... :)

Two things about VONAGE:
1. Tax kills the deal. For me its coming more than $31 per month.
2. I searched on google about calls review. Many people are complaining that the call quality is not that good. On peak times, they do face issues.
Still calling unlimited india is a very tempting idea.;)
Taxes are inevitable!
I personally haven't seen any issues with Call quality. Infact Call quality is excellent.

Leo & Dhundhun,
If it AP is not a immediate necessity, I will wait for few weeks and hope for the best.........
It is not immediate necessity, but most of the family in India, son in Canada - it is for any unforeseen situation.

If I am not wrong VDLRAO is predicting Eb2 will be current with in a year if USCIS continue horizontal spillover. What is wrong with you..
I dont know what VDLRAO is predciting, I was responding to someone, oh wait a minute, it was your post a couple pages back that said "...as from VDLRAO's post Eb2 does not need much visa to become current ..".
So nothing is wrong with me, but you better ask that question to yourself.

My $0.02. This could be a pre-emptive measure on the part of AILA. There must have been some talk at the state department of mid-month regression. This might be a strategy to scotch that. Raise a ruckus and send a message that we are prepared to file a law suit. Who knows? We are mere pawns in this grand game. Whatever happens, I hope people keep some perspective and not lose sleep over this.

There are 37275 applications with PD of 2004 or earlier. Can we make an assumption that about 20 to 30% of these would try to port once economy turns around in the next 18 to 24 months? How will this impact wait time for a EB2 with PD Jan 2006?
I am really disappointed in the info provided via the foia effort. It told me that there are only 4118 applications before me. 4118 vs 28074. Worst kind of sick joke.
Based on the PD on my 140 Approval Notice (May-2004) there are 28074 applications before me. This is the correct date.
Based on the PD on my 485 Interview Notice (Aug-2007) there are 53192 applications before me.
I do not know how my application was counted when the data was put together.

As per my knowledge, one can't file I485 application until and unless priority date is current. How come this reporting is showing 485 application count of EB2 after Aug 2007 priority dates.
As per FAQ's (RED text in above post) these numbers are based on priority dates
These applicants might have married someone from a non India/China country and thus even though they were born in India, can file I485 due to a different country of chargeability

I've been using Lingo for 3+ years, I called them to ask if they are aware(of course they are), rep said within a week they are coming up with a plan that's better than Vonage. unlimited calling to india and 100+ countries for $22.95. Plus i think they are going to include some free minutes every month that you can use to call india from your work or cell phone using a toll free or access # (just like you use Reliance).
Rep said you will receive an email in a week or so about the new offer/plan.
If you are already a Lingo customer I'd wait a week, Lingo has history of beating any competing plan.
Thanks for the info, It will good if you can update here as soon as you get an email regarding the offer...
Very +ve news from Lingo.

Please dont use google it is a waste of time - FBI uses its own databases and looks for 'hits' in terms of derogatory information.
Instead lobby for the following:-
1) USCIS should have the authority to ask FBI as to why the namecheck is taking so long and provision to expediate name check if it is has been pending for more than 'x' number of years (probably 2 or 3 i guess).
2) FBI should provide a reason for the delay. Most of the time (80%) the delay is simply because they dont have the time to open your file.
3) Procedure to Pay $500-$1000 to expediate NC (1 week) with a yes or No result. this will all allow FBI to obtain resources to process NCs faster
NC is the next bottle neck that we have to lobby for.
Asking USCIS to expedite the NAME CHECK only after 2 years is UNACCEPTABLE!! NameChecks should have resolution within 3 months. Its a security issue.
It is the USCIS which initiates the NAMECHECK process and it also has expanded the scope of NAMECHECK increasing the backlog. So, we need to go after USCIS and should NOT PAY more in this INEFFICIENT process!

Don't know if anyone noticed but Mr. Emilio's statement nowhere indicates any acknowledgement of the hardships caused by the fiasco. If he (and USCIS) knows about "flowers", I am sure USCIS knows about the scramble, hardships and frustration caused by the fiasco. A simple acknowledgement through something like " ....while we regret unintended consequences of following our internal procedures, we have made arrangements to forward the flowers to ..." would have demonstrated leadership or honesty of intent which I guess is in short supply
I think he is trying to say if anybody needs flowers its our men in uniform and not us (USCIS). I hope I am wrong but thats my perspective. Have sent the flowers anyway ;)
Two things quickly...
1) He was probably advised by their lawyers not to mention anything about the visa bulletin for legal reasons.
2) I didn't realize this until this evening when I mentioned the whole flower thing to my wife and she reminded me that government officials and agencies aren't meant to accept gifts from anyone. I believe this may have been considered a gift, or at least a grey area and perhaps they believed that discretion was the better part of valor.
I work for a government department, not as a State employee but as a vendor, and they aren�t allowed to accept anything from us that may be construed as a gift. Even when we have our annual golf days, ours are paid for by the vendor company but the State is forced to pay for themselves.

I will send out my letters to the president and IV by the end of the week for sure, if not earlier. I like the idea of a handwritten letter, however, my handwriting may cause it to be disadvantage rather than an advantage. To err on the side of caution, I will leave the handwritten letters to people with more appealing penmanship :D

One can also sign-up for Annual Pre-Pay with Vonage which will cost $20 per month for the same World Plan. Vonage - Support - Annual Pre-Pay (http://www.vonage.com/support.php?keyword=AnnualPrePay)
Just pay $240 upfornt. I did the same. Now all the features of Vonage World for $20. :)
Today I asked the customer service, they told me, I have to 315 dollars for annual plan. 239.99 + taxes = 315 dollars

It is WAC and was approved in Mar 2007. My earlier two H1 petitions were from EAC. I have two H1 transfers in my H1 history.
I guess the cases with transfer and extensions are getting delayed.

all this is because of the stupid indian government.. they dont have treaties with any other country in the world... that is called visa reciprocation.
All tom, dick and harry to enter india needs a visa and hence all countries dont have that treaty...
the 2 countries tat dont need visas are St.Kitts and Nevis and jamaica....LOL

Yes it is a concern that I have to address. However I see 2 ways to work around it.
1. Travel out of country get H4 stamping done based on my current H1B status
or
2. I apply for I-485 and add my wife later to the application when we have received her H4. In this case, once I have applied, I can add my wife to the application even if the dates are not current at that time.
If I were you and my priority dates were current, I would go for 1 above [get H-4 stamped ASAP and enter in US and apply for I-485].

Can some one please clarify what this case number is. Do we get the case number when we apply for visa, or this is just the approval notice number.
I am going for my interview on 23rd January to Mumbai. I was just trying to find out whether I can call KCC before leaving US to find out if my approval notice is in the PIMS system or not.
Did you call KCC to check if your approval is in PIMS system?

Guys
I would appreciate if anyone could throw light on this.
thanks
Guys,
My current situation is that my wife and I applied for 485 separately.
my wife's PD is 2007 ( 485 applied in Aug 2007 )
I applied for 485 in Oct 2007, Since my PD is 2003 and is current as of now ( my 140 is pending ), I talked with our companys lawyer on what options do I have with regards to my wife's 485.
My lawyer suggested 2 options.
1. File 485 again for my wife as a spouse derivative. As per lawyer, this is very common and has experienced with these kind of situations.
2. Instead of filing a second 485 for my wife, just write a request letter to move her pending 485 to my 485 as a derivative. If this porting is successful, she cannot move back to her own 485.
I know some of us have gone with option#(1), but since option(2) involves very less paper work, did any of you have used this option so far?
I am confused as to which one to choose. My lawyer spelled diplomatic when asked about which option is better/safer:-)
Thanks
