hello EVERYBODY..need help..
this is the email came from my lawyer today..for the inquiry they did with the consulate regarding my visa.
Hi Shweta,
We understand how frustrating this is for you. We received a response to our inquiry with the consulate. It seems the application is being kept pending for additional administrative processing. The stated reason for the review falls within the law under Section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Under these circumstances, we typically see that the government issues a notice to the applicant wherein additional information is often requested. Kindly advise if you have received any notification from the consulate on this issue.
Best regards,
IS ADMIN PROC DIFFERENT FROM ADD ADMIN PROC ???
also the same day i called DOS and they told me case was approved already in jan..so that means that now more processing needs to be done ??
ADVICE ??

Yes. I have sent money to IDBI through SBI. You have to give it a week. And I got better rate than promised because the day they credited to the IDBI account the exchage rate was better than the day I sent it. So I guess the reverse is possible too.
Lots of people use SBI for transfer but nobody answered my earlier question? DOES SBI allows electronic transfer to NON SBI accounts?

Buying a home right now?? must be kidding me. Do you want to commit for a 30 yr loan when the starting rates are around 6.75 ? (How many will get that rate?). Keeping interest rate aside, There is no way any one can make 100K by buying a home in the current market. I am glad you could and sorry that I couldnt. I am looking at the DC area market that went crazy and now is cooling down. go to www.zillow.com and check homeprices and what happened to homes in the neighborhood.
Some facts about Allied Health care who plan on getting PT's and Nurses from India
Do you know that they need to get a visa screen certificate (PTs and Nurses) to get into the country?
Have you ever dealt with FCCPT & CGFNS (one that gives Visascreens for PT's & Nurses).
Do you know that the license they get is temporary (6 months ) and by the end of the 6 months they have to pass licensing exam in the US?
Do you know how much time they take for processing a type1 application (for applicants without a U S state PT license )?
Applicants must take TOEFL CBT/IBT and get 250/92 respectively. I am not sure about the exact scores. On IBT there is a section wise score you have to achieve minimally. If you have TOEFL CBT you have to take TSE as well and get 50 min. Many people in India get 45 to 48 even after 2 to 3 attempts
Schedule A is set to retrogress any time.
Health care is not IT, other wise desi consultants might have been pumping nurses like crazy into the US.
Hope I shed some light

Here are my case details as well.
Came to US in Aug 1999 on F-1 after B.Tech. Graduated with MS (Telecom) in Dec 2000. Joined a major telecom firm immediately after graduation. My first EB-3 labor was filed in Dec 2001 (Non-RIR) but employer withdrew it because of lay-offs. Employer filed again in Nov'03 (Non-RIR again) and it was approved in March 2007 (after RIR conversion in Jan 2007) by Dallas BEC, followed by I-140 approval (March 2007) and I-485 filing in July 2007. Though my job required a MS degree, my employer could not file in EB-2 as there were people in my team with just Bachelors degree when they joined the company 10-15 yrs ago and lawyer did not advise employer to file in EB-2 as EB-3 was current those days......After surviving 12 rounds of lay-offs, no job security whatsoever throughout and fed up with EB3 process, I changed jobs after 8.5 yrs (July 2009) and my new job required a minimum of MS + 6 yrs of experience and fortunately my new employer (another large company) had no issues re-starting the process again. I work in Mobile Communications R&D (developing networks which support smart phones (2G/3G and now 4G-LTE technology) have been in this field since Jan 2001) and here are my EB-2 case details:
Joined new employer in July 2009
PERM Prep work took 6 months
EB2 PERM filed: March 30th, 2010 (MS + 6 yrs or BS + 8 yrs as min requirements)
EB2 PERM approved: Aug 11th, 2010
EB2 I-140 filed: Aug 27th, 2010 (Premium Processing, EB3 I-140 approval copy enclosed with request to Port EB3 PD)
EB2 I-140 and I-485 approved concurrently on Sep 3rd, 2010
Cards received Sep 7th, 2010
Hope this helps.
Truly borderline EB1. Congrats!

Sorry for ignorance, but what would you fetch from these voting results? There were already more than 100's threads before and as of now, if I am correct never seen any estimate data from any of us.
Its just sheer waste of time in calculating estimates. USCIS has its own rules and no one can predict them.
Just a thought. Please post the estimate data if you ever get, something?
Best of luck.
I guess it has less to do with estimates, and more about looking at the landscape. If there are significant portion of responses are above your date, one might, for example, choose to initiate porting/reclassification process if one qualifies for it.
Good thread. I am wondering the reasons for lack of response between Jan and March of 2002.

I am seriously thinking of PMP. If I don't do that I think I will have nothing to show even if I do get GC (which seems unlikely at the moment).
somegchuh..yeah...let's go get ourself a PMP cert???? Maybe we (and others who are interested) can start a PMP study group and get it done soon!!! Then by the time we all get our GC, we can work as a PM making at least 150K a year? Sounds good??? :D (sigh..trying to humor myself in such depressing moment!)

Dear Sir or Madam:
I have been watching Lou Dobbs on CNN for a while and I am appalled by Mr Dobbs' hatred towards immigrants. He seems to twist or omit facts to suit his line of thought and at times states his opinion as absolute facts (most of which can be easily dis-proven by a 10 minute search on USCIS or dept of home land security websites). My friends and I are considering boycotting CNN if this sort of offensive programming goes on unchecked.

You are hitting the right buttons here! You can say it is either laziness or fright/jitters or the comfort of current H1B approval/stamp that is making the large populace to sit tight.
Guess what, once some of the battles are won (we can never win all - they will always be ongoing), we should either knight pappu or induct him to "IV Hall of Fame".
Thank you Janilsal. People like me come and go after finishing their work. I just want IV to be remembered for getting rid of retrogression and solving the GC problems that plague hundreds of thousands of high skilled immigrants. each and every member of IV is important in order to achive this. one member or even the entire core cannot do it alone if there is no support and efforts from IV members. IV members are more important than one member in this struggle.

The SKIL Bill is a proposed piece of legislation that would increase the
number of H-1Bs and green cards. It is included in the comprehensive
immigration bill Congress is likely to consider this spring and will
hopefully pass in the fall.

can someone draft a template like the nurses letter to congress for us with subject "Please provider retrogression relief for Employment Based Immigrants." and the body of the letter with the provisions and proposals including "recapture of unused visas". I feel the nurses will deplete our unused visas by recapturing unused ones several times and we may not have that option anymore.

Again, including her name on your I-485 application would not help her to "get into the queue". You need to file another I-485 for her and you can only do that if she is physically present in the US. (you need the I-94 card). You could have the court marriage in July and bring her here on an H4 or other visa, and then file for her I-485 as well.
I am in a similar boat as you, except my ritualistic wedding would be in Aug and I am banking on the hope that the dates would still remain current for August.
[QUOTE=manojp4]You cannot do CP for your spouse unless your I-485 is approved (an immigrant visa number is available for you). That is why the adjustment of status within the US is so much more preferable for most people - it lets you and the spouse get the EAD and start working without waiting for the approval of your GC.
Thanks manojp4, appreciate your help. Just to clarify my doubt, she would need to file a 485 anyhow, before the dates retrogress again, right. Would it matter if I included her name in my filing, along with the marriage certificate. I guess all I am trying to understand is I know 100% that I will be married before I file, would that help her in anyway, lets say if the dates retrogress in August and she cannot file till then.

@snathan, sorry pal i thought you must those fake identities in disguise who could pull you back from filing a complaint since they were one from the run, anyways with your suggestion the consular processing i understand there is a chance to come back, but to be true these 3 months have set me back by 3 years, with the consultant not picking my call when i want to ask him about the situation, running from company to company to attend an interview, they all taking a 5-6 hour interview and then then getting back 2 months later only to tell you that
they had another senior in line from the company for promotion , they gave him the job and no outside candidates are being considered, other companies also making a mockery of the process of hiring. I would be better going to australia and working from within there, yes i did pay for my H1B but to be so true as i want to be i though it was a procedure at the companies and only realized after i had handed it over by reading this forum that i had also become in cohoots with this consultant. I am not a cry baby here , just that people flying in from all parts of the world , India, Australia, Canada and god knows from where, should be made aware that such things could happen to you and beware, for me the beware sign a little late as i believed at first started my research later.
@uma thanks for the support but i have already decided to fly back, i appreciate this forum and the people who are willing to help
@roseball well got no breath left to do another set of visa interview at the US consulate and answer those questions
@poorslumdog when i started to research i found that this company has done this to many Indian guys, many Canadians by charging visa fees and charging some extra dough and sat on it like a vulture, did nothing to call them to the country and some have never reported to work after 3 years of visa filing, now why is this whole tantrum of filing then, they have been expanding with offices in various areas in US and it acts a good mark on
their company in terms of view from a outside and successful visa filing with candidate money with no responsibility of placing then is a goldmine, they are like half hits in terms of placing and calling people here, i met with an Indian guy who had come here on his own and changed the company finally as he went thru the same scum of this company.
Seems like there are victims falling for this modus operandi time after time.
@HRPRO thanks for the suggestion
@GCvivek thanks for the analysis of my situation, i feel that its tough to put him to trial but somebody is going to have to do that someday, let it be me, atleast if only a black mark
it will add to his database and track record of black marks and i am sure many more would have tried but never complained against him, makes him immune everytime someone passes without doing it as i agree they want to be safe, but i want to blow the whistle.
I need help on the procedure of documents to be submitted , please help me on that as well.

There is nothing in it for us. In-fact, if this bill passes, they are goin got apply the unused visa numbers towards FB, and we will lose any chance of re-capture, for-ever.
I think, we have a lost cause. The sooner we accept this, the better. We simply do not have the funds, commitment and political support that the illegals enjoy. We all know where the maximum nubver of FB immigrants are from, and they represent a big block of votes, since most of them happen to have the herd mentality, due to lack of education.
We, on the other hand, are educated, well read, tax paying people, who actually think about issues and merits of a person, hence no use to politicians.
Please, could you try and be a bit more positive. 400K illegal to legal or otherwise is a 400K vote if granted residency. Meaning you - a legal, educated and GDP contributor shall have more a chance to those less educated with menial jobs and no real standing on ways of life in this country or a positive contribution to true development. Being positive is half the battle won.

We all will have to work to make the injustice visible; only then will the employers start behaving.
We all remember there used to be a IV voice member who used to leave abusive comments to everybody. Once we all made a hue and cry about this Pappu took action against him by disclosing his identity and since that day we have not seen any complaints by members.
