Thought I should share my EB-3 (horror) story:
First initiated my RIR labor in 01/2002
PD: Aug 02,2002
RD: Sept 18, 2003
Approval: June 19 2007
I765 & 131 renewed 4 times.
Though I graduated with a Masters' degree from here back in '98, I was wrongly advised by a lawyer (who I unfortunately knew) who said I did'nt meet min. salary requirements and put me in EB-3 instead of EB-2 (though all my friends who graduated with me were in EB-2 and I knew they could'nt be making a whole lot more than I was). So if your lawyer wants to put you in EB-3 even though you're eligible for EB-2 change lawyers right away; It will mean a world of difference when things go bad. Chances are, the lawyer wants minimum paperwork & hassles to deal with. To add to bad luck, I had an Indian manager who refused to pay for my green card and even the ads for RIR labor, even though he got his green card paid for. Anyways priority dates were current for all categories back then (2002-3) just like it is today when they reclaimed unused numbers so this attorney had said EB3 vs EB2 won't be a problem and convinced me to go with EB3. This 'current' situation went on for some time (a year or so perhaps(?) to 2004 or 05; I do not remember) and then the DOS went and retrogressed EB3 back to 1999! During the year or two Priority Dates were current the INS (as it was called then) took their sweet time in processing cases progressing real slow. So when they were about 3-4 months away from processing my PD and I thought I was real close to 485 approval, the DOS did their thing and retrogressed dates all the way back to 1999 and has become current only now. It hit me with a gale force effect when it retrogressed.
It's almost like things swing like a pendulum between the two departments. If you're real lucky and time it right things can go smooth. If not yes you're screwed like I was and things can go bad one after the other. This time around I was almost sure the USCIS will take a go slow policy and wait for dates to retrogress once again like the last time. I was very surprised by the HUGE movements of 485 processing dates. Things are looking far better this time with these dates. Focus on getting your EAD and Advance paroles ASAP. I-140 premium processing will be worth it. Good luck to you all.
Congrats on your approval. I see that you got your labor in less than a year, surprising you got stuck with 485, lots of the ones I know got their 485s within 8-10 months during 2004-2005 time frame. Of course being in west coast meant that we waited for our labor certs for about 3 years. Green Card, not unlike death, is a great leveler. Enjoy your GC.
BTW: Your lawyer is not necessarily wrong. USCIS will look into the company's other applicants, if most of them are applying for EB3 with your pay grade in your own company, then it becomes difficult to justify your EB2 position. USDOL may consider it as excessive tailoring of job requirements.

Hi sanbaj should the 485 RD become current or the PD should be current is enough to open the case ?
There is no definite answer to this question. USCIS is erratic on that. In my opinion, one's case is opened and process starts as soon as the case is Receipt Noticed. In my case, my PD was current since April, but RD was not. As soon as they reached my RD my app was approved. I think that is the general trend. But, they are not consistent on it. Therefore, no definite answer.

I hope your situation straightens out soon. I personally would go the info pass way with all documents and try to persuade them to reinstate the case.
Please report this lawyer to the bar association. Although I am not a big fan of litigation, this guy really deserves to be punished so he is more careful with the other cases he has. He probably has no idea what stress his silly mistake has caused you. I bet this asshole hasnt even acknowledged his mistake or expressed regret.

GCard_Dream,
I agree with you. I had also brought to the attention of the moderators about the restraint they need to exercise while closing threads.
Let people discuss about the visa movement dates as long as it doesn't harm/hurt others. Discussing/predicting visa dates is not against the wishes of the larger immigrant community as long as anti-social acts like betting is involved.
I again request the moderators to exercise their power with proper reasoning. If 1000 people wants a thread closed, it is not a proper reason for closing it.
I normally don't post predictions. But I read it sometimes. They will be a few people who post genuine opinions. Their views are sometimes helpful!
Just my thoughts. It's not against anyone.
Well .. there you go. When I predicted few weeks ago that there will be a big jump in the priority dates, some of us came up with big speeches about how that thread was a big waste of time and the thread should be closed. The thread in fact was closed without any explanation. It appears that there has been several occasions where moderators are just closing the threads without any explanation.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=3820
Here is my suggestion.. don't close the thread just because you can. At least give some explanation as to why any thread was closed. I know there are threads that talk about personal issues faced by members and if that's not acceptable then all threads dealing with personal issues should be closed.
What amazes me is that person closing the thread doesn't even want to mention his/her id. What a shame ..

So if I'm understanding it correctly. For all the ones who applied for I-140 after May15th 07 all there petitions will be cancelled or revoked? I really that should come from the USCIS as a amendment and not from a news or a blog. I have been browsing the website and yet to find it. Can someone help me out with the exact text from USCIS? :mad:
instead of trolling the web looking for USCIS announcements
the bill is not yet law, how do you expect to find USCIS notification of anything? no one knows what the final law will be after the house and conference committee finish their parts. so do the necessary thing and let's try to get the best bill possible.

MIRAGE!!! thats a hell of surprise that your friend contractor actually spend money to sponsor H1 and also the airfare!!! amazing. Pls take a little time to visit the murthy website, which apparently now has become a place for all the desperate people to cry. There are many reported and believe me inumerable non-reported cases where the candidate themselves pay for the H1b, which is completely ilegal in the first place, OK. Now your friends brother jumped simply because he was paid below the prevailing market rate and he was better qualified. So many of those who come here through contractors are not very qualified. Anyway nothing is going to help with we arguing against each other, right? lets hope the CIR prevails and the visa system is better regulated regarding (qualifications, advertisements, pay scale, benefits etc).

Once the dollar touches that low, expect huge salary cuts across the board for the employess of these companies.
Yeah, easy money overnight is not always possible. Business in general is never easy. Lot of people think it is. People used to easy money, can never adapt to tough times. Those capable hard working businessmen who can adapt to any situations are the real businessmen.

Can you please explain in detail what the RFE was about? What was it that USCIS did not like about your photos?
Thanks!
Dude, You are looking at not getting a RFE based on the pics. Not that picture people or JCPenny takes great pics and make u look like Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise.
:D :p
I got 2 RFE's for pictures only. Those are the only 2 RFE's till date for me.
I had real bad experience with digital pics. But there are many people who didnt have any issues. So it is all your luck.
If you have RFE, it sets u back by 2 months for the approval.
Just my 2 cents.....
