Any idea how long it takes for a decision once it has been assigned to an officer?
My wife's case was assigned to an officer on Aug 11th.
in my case iwas exactly 3 weeks.
Someone else mentioned on this forum that the officer will clear all the cases assigned to him/her within 30 days.

PD should be established on the first labor application.
I feel this is more practical than number of years in US.
It already does, if you have an approved I-140 based on your LC.

Hello friends,
I was wondering about the FP notice time frame. I had applied for 485/EAD/AP on July 2nd at NSC which later got transferred to TSC. Receipts indicate that notice date is 8/27.
I was wondering how many days does it take to get FP notice from the 485 notice date? data indicates that some of the TSC guys who have notice dates of 8/29 have already got their FP notices scheduled for mid september.
Thanks.

Chandu,
1. "W2 Self-employed" is an oxymoron. Self-employed option is possible through 1099. Nowhere on the Yates memo (or any other USCIS resource) does it say that you have to be on a "permanent" job. You sure can be self-employed (i.e., not on a W2) with AC21 provision, as the Yates memo clearly says.
[Now, you can be self-employed with unlimited liability. If you want to reduce your liability, you can open an LLC, which gives you the freedom of filing your income taxes either as a "Sole Proprietor," a "C-Corp," or an "S-Corp." (Please see IRS website for tax implications, e.g., http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/article/0,,id=154770,00.html)]
Also, no employer can give you an EVL saying "permanent" job, nor are you required by USCIS to mention that, nor your salary (unless asked for), nor the date when your job ends. Therefore, your statement that "As long as your self employed as drawing w2 salary and doing the same duties - it is permanent employment" is wrong for two reasons. One, you can't be on W2 AND self-employed for the same job (you can, though, open a part-time business on EAD with same/similar responsibility as your labor cert, and file that income as a "Self-employed," or as a "C-Corp," or as an "S-Corp"). Two, your definition/interpretation of "permanent job" is wrong: No job in this country can be permanent (legally speaking), and I haven't seen *any* job offer letter saying it would be a "permanent" job. Also, being on W2 doesn't imply or guarantee that you're on a "permanent job:" Jobs in most states are "at will."
2. You're *not* required by USCIS to notify them of your job change under AC21 provision. Nor is there anything called "filing AC21."
I agree with you that these two topics need discussion and closure, following which you may want to change your wiki article on "How to File AC21."
sankap - I think these folks are asking you to be cautious. AC21 RFEs request if the prospects of employment.
the "permanant" job means "the job is always there" as per projection.
even if your employer has consulting business - as long as you are employed with this employer under w2 "yours" is a "permanant job" at that time projected - things MAY change later.
The same works with self - employment. As long as your self employed as drawing w2 salary and doing the same duties - it is permanant employment.
So lets not get confused here. If you project that your current job is ONLY temporary in nature then that does not qualify as a permanant job.
Being self employed and doing consulting work means you r constantly doing projects under your own corp which is perm job.
Lets discuss this in detail - i will get back to this as my kid is not allowing me to type now

Any realistic numbers how many EB3 India pending cases are there with PDs in each of 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 ...
Anyone know any links, USCIS keeps on posting some data all the time.
I can tell you there are roughly 100,000 labor applications filed (50,000 EB3) between Aug 2003 and Dec 2003 for EB India category. The reason was everybody wanted to clear thru regular process before PERM takes over. Those Labors filed after Aug 2003 and before PERM started are moved into backlog and are fully cleary last 4 th quarter. And so 90% of those EB3s may be still there (45,000) hanging. EB2s could have been cleared substantially till Dec 2003. It is all my guess work and not sceintific or factual.

Yes, we have to wait for CIR to die. Sooner the better, because once House Republicans start holding hearings on CIR, this slow death for CIR might stretch beyond July. Extended mockery of house legistlative process will leave us hanging in a limbo.
Once this CIR charade is over we can move a new bill with only legal immigration provisions through Senate. Hopefully, Democrats will regain House majority this November. Even if they don't, this will be a litmus test for house republicans who have been so vocal in supporting the streamlining of legal immigration.

I am afraid that you might be right on this. Having said that it appears that there isn’t lot of resistance for our provisions in the senate. In fact, we have been able to get our provisions through the senate few times already but we have never been able to get anything out of the house. We tried twice and it always failed in the house.
So why don’t we try to persuade house to come up with our provisions and that shouldn’t (I hope) have any problem in the senate. If history is any guide, senate has always been helpful to us. Any comment on who in the house might be willing to help us in lame-duck session.
If the Democrats :cool: win, we will be screwed because the illegals will get all the visas.
If the Republicans :cool: :eek: win, we will also be screwed because nobody will get visas.

here's a writeup for reporters.
"One the Eve of July 4th, US Rejects Permanent Residency Applications of Law-Abiding, Tax-Paying, High-Skilled Legal Immigrants Including Doctors, Scientists and Engineers"
Justice, freedom, equal opportunity and meritocracy are the pillars on which modern America is built upon. This country has opened its doors with a warm smile and a big heart for every hard working, highly-skilled legal immigrant who has one common thing more than anything else with every American � the American dream. Andy Grove of Intel, Sergey Brin of Google, Vinodh Khosla of Sun Microsystems are excellent examples of people who migrated to the US for higher education and then went on to found billion-dollar companies that employs thousands of Americans.
Everyday pressures at work, paying for mortgage, taking care of children are challenges that every working American goes through. But little is known about the silent pain and anxiety of high-skilled, tax-paying, law-abiding doctors, engineers and scientists who have to constantly keep track of their position in the "queue" to obtain their permanent residency status, more commonly the 'green card', as a first step towards calling America their home. Sometimes, the wait in the line can last as long as ten years. The wait comes with several restrictions like being bound to the particular job position with the sponsoring employer for as many years, foregoing promotions and inability to change jobs at will � work conditions unimaginable for an average American employee.
Sometimes the position in the long queue moves forward, when even a small movement causing immense joy and anticipation among the employees while sometimes the position moves backwards causing the employee to endure further pain. Historically the US government has opened the doors for the final stage of the green card application (where the applicant can adjust or change their status from any current non-immigrant status to a permanent resident status) every 3 years or so for a small window of time that typically lasts 30 -60 days. On June 13 th 2007 when the US government announced that July 2nd 2007 was the beginning of the one such window of time, the news sent thousands of prospective applicants into a tizzy mixed with relief, anticipation and joy. Many spent thousands of dollars in preparing required documentation, lawyer fee and canceling travel arrangements, to get their applications in on the first day itself.
Alas! With a hitherto unprecedented action, on the morning of July 2nd 2007, the same US government agency, with a terse and nondescript press release went back on its promise and slammed its door shut for any green card application. This action is clearly condemnable, unacceptable and unfair to thousands of high-skilled employees who contribute positively towards strengthening the US economy. Many feel wounded at the inhumane treatment in the hands of US immigration department and are contemplating migrating back to their homeland or to more immigrant friendly countries. However, a strong majority still trusts the US government to implement meaningful reforms specifically targeting legal immigrants while they continue to endure untold sufferings.

Well, my old carcass is getting too aged to handle that anymore. So now I ease off the sauce and go to the gym.
But I do also try to notice and enjoy the silliness of the every day human condition. (Still to this day, I'm not sure why I mow my lawn, for instance.) A sense of humour is very important. Recognition that there are others less fortunate. And stay connected with friends socially.
And also recognize that fact that a green card won't make me magically happier beyond the immediate jubilation. Yes it is good to regain the rights we lost coming to the US. To speeches I'll still smile, nod, even clap and think "what a bunch of nonsense!" for privacy is the true freedom that you still have. But I'll still work for a living. I'll still put on a dress shirt to impress clients I'll never see. I'll still try to spend more time creating than managing. Not simply because my h1b legally requires me to do so, but because managing is intellectually trivial. Or one could say that managing is the work of man, creation is the work of the gods. ; )
Chin up!

If Reps win CIR might not pass at all. Since border Fence bill is passed now it shows Reps want a border security only bill. Remember Senate was opposing to a border security bill First? What happened now. America raised voice about it. And congress reacted by passing it.
If Dems win we stand a chance that CIR would be debated. Few legals provisions would squeezed into this CIR bill(which is maily for undocumented and ag worker). However its important that Dems take control of both senate and house.
Ont he flip side if Reps will, atleast there is a possiblity that SKIL bill might pass. that would help us.

In my opinion most people who are on H1 n IT with american companies, either got in there via OPT- H1 or H1 transfer.
That is very true! In very very extreme cases, you would find American companies recruiting directly from India for IT jobs! That may be like, one in 1000!
