Can we have some tieup with some flower delivering company? Like, for each floer ordered by IV member, some percentage will be donated to IV. But the point is every one from here will order the flowers through them. Any thoughts?
That is a nice thought, if you know anybody that will donate the money to IV please let us know. (Pun intented). :D

As I posted on another thread, I do not believe that all those old approvals are due to sub labor.
A large part is related to FBI name check; remember, they just cleared a lot of name check cases...Not necessarily a bad thing, but we always feared as to how big is that number and it is still early to see the full impact of "clearing of that backlog>"

Congratulations Fred!
My PD is 4/30/04 and I am anxiously waiting as well (since 2001 actually).
This is not an accusation on Fred in any way, but I just noticed that his Notice Date is 10/3/07, when the current processing dates for TSC are 8/23/07 - so this is yet another mystery of USCIS/TSC, one I doubt we will be able to solve anytime soon.

Even I was wondering same thing- Notice Date or Received Date. USCIS website says Received date is taken into account while looking at service centers processing times.
Here is exact line-
"IMPORTANT: If your receipt notice date is earlier then the processing date shown, we suggest you call our USCIS Customer Service Office at 1-800-375-5283 for assistance."
Of course, I personally wish that Notice Date takes precedence as it is not our fault that one file just kept on sitting and in saga of moving dates and PD, each day makes a difference.
Of course it is not your fault if your case was sitting upopened for months (mine was one of them too), but as a typical govt office, Texas Service Center would also say, they are not responsible until file physically came to them, and then opened it. They treat the date you see online as "...your case was received on...", as the receive date, which is quite close to ND (no matter what is on your receipt).
If RD and and ND are too far apart, and your PD is current, but your case is not yet processed, Infopass might help, as the officer might request to move your case up. No harm in giving a try.

To answer your query,
Let me start by repeating myself, it is not about EB2 or EB3. We all are EB communities. We didn't design the system, neither we believe ourselves to be superior to EB3. The point is all of us need to work together and help ourselves to change the system. IF EB2 gets some advantage then ultimately it will help EB3 as well.
It is a simple logic, when the cake gets cut it rolls down to all the people in line. If there is no cake, whats the point of arguing who is ahead in line?
Please everyone, stop complaining about who is ahead, work together. Instead of complaining do some more constructive, involve more people. lets gather necessary means to file this lawsuit.
Thanks
Well said. We see the community fighting with no cake in hand
EB2 vs EB3
India, China Vs ROW
US masters Vs non US deegree
..............
........
goes on.

As everyone is aware of the FOIA letters we have received from USCIS. We requested everyone to fax/email us the USCIS letter.
Here is an update on IV plans and what we know till now:
On Friday, during the discussions with USCIS, we came to know that that there is a backlog of FOIA requests and currently they are clearing FOIA requests they received in 2007. We also know from the letter that the report wll not have 'country of chargeability' info. This is a critical info that we ought to have. Even after paying 5K to USCIS, over one year wait time to get the FOIA request completed will be unacceptable to the community.
In light of these developments we have explored other options to get this data and use the copies of replies we get as an example how badly we need this data to get accurate picture of the size and breakdown of the current backlog, so that we can all know how long we need to wait in the current system, if nothing changes. We would also ideally like such data to be always available and updated for public periodically.
Our first option is that we put in effort to get this data without having to pay $5K to USCIS. We will also try to get the data much sooner rather than all of us wait for more than a year.This could be possible via advocacy effort and our initial discussions on this subject have been promising. We will pursue this and if we do not make much progress until the deadline then we may pay 5K and still pursue the advocacy option to get the data faster. Thus we need more than 5K to proceed with these parallel options. The advocacy effort will also be an ongoing task beyond the first month. Thus we request members to sign up for recurring payment option to support this initiative and any other initiative we undertake for the community.
We have added a paypal module on the top of each page with a target amount. Members can use this fresh tool added to IV website to contribute. We prefer if members contributing to the effort on recurring monthly basis for a long term support of IV efforts. All members who contribute through this system will also have access to special 'Contributor's Forum' on the IV website.
Thank You for your effort and contribution for building a stronger community.

Guys : dont waste time replying to this guy's comments. Spend time convincing your friends to make it to DC. If you cannot go personally, sponsor someone.
If you have Universities in your area, check with the local students if they want to go.
Try your level best to get maximum attendance at the rally.

My 485 was filed at NSC and the ND is 03 Oct 2007. It was subsequently moved to TSC in Nov 2008.
So which date is it going to be: PD, ND, RD or Move date (MD) ????
As I read the thread above on the perennial point of contention PD or RD or ND.
Since I was contacting my local congressman and Senators...I got this feedback that my case is pre-adjudicated but waiting to have a visa number available....but I don't know who to trust...I am just not very hopeful and if 485 ND is the date they go by I have no chance and will miss this opportunity too.

Hi,
My company is located in CA state. Currenlty i am working in Client place i.e in Oregon state.
My labor and I140 got approved in my old residence CA address.Now i applied I485 for me and my wife by showing Oregon state address thorugh my same employer which is located in CA state.
Pls clarify, wheather this new address will make any impact on my I485 process(approval).Becoz some ppl in forums are mentioning that, if we don't have LCA for new state then I485 maybe denied becoz of "out of status".
pls help in this regard.:)
thanks,
chethan

Just like with individuals, we tend to place trust on organizations and instituitions based on their past behaviors / actions. It's obvious we have very little trust on USCIS.
I think there is some misunderstanding on the memo bein discussed.
I'm still betting USCIS has a (reasonably accurate--- give or take a thousand) tally of pending India / China EB2 I-485s that match the available GC visa numbers which have to be used up before Sep 30th. All they have to do is assign visa numbers before September 30th. It is quite possible for them to process the applications and assign the visa numbers at the end. Most likely approvals will come well into October.
Well, that's the way U and I would do it, so no visa numbers are wasted. It remains to be seen if the UscIs has more cooks than just U and I! ;-)
Ah, TGIF! ;)

PotatoEater,
I grow different kind in my backyard. It all depends on the size of your backyard and which zone you live in states. I live in virginia. By this August end /september first week summer crop will end. I grow tomatoes(30 plants), Mint, snake guard, water melons (15 plants), cantaloupes(10 plants), carrots, okra, spinach , chillis. Its fun and hard work too. You need to dig the soil, mix with top soil or garden soil and cultivate it. Every week fertilize it. This is my first year gardening. I have around 3000 square ft of back yard. i do not know what to do with that. I cannot maintain Lawn in back yard. So I decided to grow vegetables.
I am eagerly waiting for my fall garden..I am planning to grow tulips,beets,cilantro,carrots,potato,peas etc., If I can get same space for garden In India and work place just 3 miles from home , I can happily go back to India.
