SVAM77,
I'm planning to file my 140 and 485 concurrently on the same exact day. Will there be any problem with USCIS accepting my 485 because I'm filing 140 also on the same day ??
Thanks

Franklin, yes, Ombudsman report includes ALL I-485 numbers, plus ALL naturalizations. Among all of them EBs are a small number.
What I was trying to understnd by running the numbers, where does the "leacky bucket" go over time. Imagine EB category as a leacky bucket - new workers on H1Bs are getitng their documents done, that goes to adds, and approvals are being given out, that goes to substracts. If the expected new petititons being ready are more than 140K, the total bucket will grow. If it is less, it will shrink. What I am basically saying, it is between 10K and 20K less adds than deletes, so the backlog should shrink over time (not tomorrow, of course). And it will start shrinking from EB3 ROW, because that is where the unused numbers end up. By watching EB3 ROW number we should be able to tell how fast the pool is shrinking.
Also, in the concept of the leaky bucket, it becomes essential not to lose any numbers, this is why 10K lost numbers a year is unacceptable. Personally, I think advocating number recapture is a waste of time (better off advocating quota increases), but we should be vigilant about CIS not losing numbers going forward.
Efficiency of precessing, in my opinion, is not an issue at all, at least on the USCIS side. FBI is a different story, but even for them, it is rare that cases are stuck for more than two years. Retrogression is the real culpit - being stuck in retro for 5 years is not unusual, and this is a whole lot worse than namecheck. By the way, because naturalizations are also subject to namechecks, there is enough outrage out there that I think namecheck issue will be solved in the next year or so.

Dude:
If you think you are qualified for an EB2 job why don't you apply for one and get another labor/140 filed rather than crying "Sour Grapes"? Get out of your comfort zone and try getting a new job. Simple. If you have been on an Eb3 since 2004, that explains your "Go getter" attitude. Be smart dude.
Well said. Especially in IT,every company irrespective of size is a consulting company in its own perspective.If its Microsoft, majority of the products are developed with a vast team size of thousands and no one can take a complete credit on that product, except the company.
That's why its called team work.Every individual team member contributes with their specalized skills and thats what they were hired for in first place.
Its just a matter that the Company felt that your skills require only a bachelor's degree for the work that you perform,whereas other company felt it requires a master's degree.
Also as a matter of fact since the last 10 years the technology has changed in such a fast pace,I can confidently say that just because someone is an architect in J2EE does not mean he is better than a Mainframe Programmer. Its just means that someone were at the right place at the right time during the Dot com boom.
Its easy for people working at big companies to move around and work for different projects as the size is directly proportional to the number of clients the company serves. Whereas for a small firm,due to their nature of business model,its always serving the Big Fish and supporting their projects. You can find number of sub-contractors working for IBM,HP etc etc. So if an employee of Big company and a contractor working on the same project does the same work,how are you as an employee better skilled than a contractor?
Its just that you chose a comfort zone by abiding by your comapnies policies,whereas a contractor chose to move around and work on exciting projects that suits his/her challenges.
So bottomline,someone being in EB2 or EB3 is just by choice of the individual and circumstances and here I assume each of them have same experience and qualification.
Example someone having an Engg degree from IIT is no different than a person from an average engg working on the same project. Its the IIT graduate that chose to work on the project that and average engg qualification person chose to work.
Same thing applies to EB2 and EB3 as well.

hi mirage,
you dont need to pay anymore money for EAD when you apply in future. this is what my attorney said. Thats why USCIS fees is very high and its one time fess for EAD and AP.
I don't think that's true. You pay every time for renewal of AP/EAD. Its a nonstop source of revenue for USCIS.

Appu, I found it! Frist's bill says that for foreign applicants with advanced degrees in STEM from an accredited US grad program (no matter when they graduated), notwithstanding the applicant's eligibility for US permanent residence, the applicant can file for adjustment of status if the applicant has an immigrant petition filed under one of the EB categories.
This means that the applicant does not have to undergo labor certification at all! This is because for a person that wants to work in the US is only eligible for US permanent residence if the applicant undergoes labor cert.
See p. 217 of S2454, lines 8-9. This applicant is still subject to the quotas and has to wait for a visa number for approval of adjustment of status.
Both bills allow "special handling" for applicants with advanced degrees who have worked in the US for three years. I am confused about how exactly that works. My brother-in-law is a college prof and he had to go thru PERM labor cert, though they used the results of his original recruitment and didn't have to file fresh ads. So I am not sure if the "special rule labor cert" in 8 USC 1182 (a)(5)(A)(ii) directly relates to Schedule A.
But these applicants don't have to wait for a visa number and are exempt from the quota.
An applicant with a US grad STEM degree and 3 years experience probably can go right to I140/485 concurrent without labor cert and is not subject to Labor cert or any quota.
Yeah, that's the tricky part. I think all professions that require advanced
degrees in STEM have been classified (by Section 406) as Schedule A.
Which means you file ETA form 9089 directly to USCIS NOT to the DOL.
That's the "special labor certification" that the Specter mark-up refers to.
The PACE act doesn't have this provision - it excludes future F4 visa graduates from labor certification but says nothing about the current advanced degree holders. Frist's bill seems to exempt all those with advanced degrees and are employed in their field of expertise from going to the DOL for certification. Plus, if you have been employed for 3 years or more, then the quota doesn't apply and you get a visa number right away.

Why H1B, F1, etc.?
Whenever US allows a person/family to come in US on work/study, US should provide equal opportunity to that person/family in most aspects of life (except National Security, Voting Rights, etc. which is after becoming citizen).
If at all any binding required, it could be somthing like six months - not of years and years.
Some bold decisions required - just like closing Guantanamo prision

Mark, point taken but I do believe if we can raise some stink then we should. The Law firms need to realise that the country club memebership is coming at the cost of some poor sap stuck in the immigration rut and all he/ she needs is kind words and sound advice. I shall stop my ranting about Fragomen after this post.
On your other point about law firms participating. What makes you think they already do not have a member in the forums. If they read this good then the messeage has been sent across.
If approached in the right way there is a chance that big law firms will be helpful to us. The way to do this is politely, not raising a stink, with a credible number of their clients supporting us. The big law firms could act as a "force multiplier" to use a military term, only a small fraction of the community currently know about us, the big law firms and USCIS are the common connection for EB GC process, and USCIS is not about to email all their customers about us. With the right encouragement law firms might just help.
If they have members reading forums great. However, please do be civil.
I do understand the need to vent and rant sometimes. My personal guide is not to post anything that I do not want to be publicly (or legally) held to. Also a balanced constructive post is useful for all. So I place my full name in my signature.

The mere mention of Fragomen makes my blood boil :mad::mad:. This law frim is the most useless in my opinion. They have no concern for their eventual client. My labor application was rejected :( because of the inefficient ppl at Fragomen. Their attitude was still so casual as if nothing happened. I am forced to use them but I would not recommend this Law firm even to an enemy.

Inspite of this rumor, they sent us urgent email, that they are working overnight this weekend and if possible they wud like to dispatch our 485 papers before saturday noon for Monday am delivery at uscis. We were impressed. They even didnt asked for the attorney fees in this moment , we just submitted the filing fees.
www.gotcherlaw.com, in Los Angeles, speak to Mr Ron Gotcher, just in case.
Whereas one of my friends attorney is not in a hurry, rather king of gaveup and waiting for the monday/tuesday developments.
best,
Guys,
Wanted to started this thread to get reviews on different law firms
I can understand the quality and committment of lawyers can make a huge difference especially in this unprecendented situation where all EB categories are made current now and now there is a rumour that it would be retrogressed back probably sometime next week with a new visa bulletin.
A lot of lawyers who are really committed and sincere to their client's clause: Getting them Green Card, are working overnight and over the weekend also so that their client can file I-485 ASAP and on the other hand few law firms are acting as slackers and not even responding to their client's emails.
Anyway, I am interested in knowing everyone's experience ( good or bad ) with law-firms and their recommendation.
My Own Case:-> I work for a multibillion dollar telecom company and joined this company almost 15 mos ago with a promise that they would start my GC immediately. Till Now, they have not yet file my labor. Their lawfirm is Larrabee http://www.larrabee.com/ in sanDiego. I don't have much experience with them as my application is still in my company's internal queue but based on the basis of my little experience, I would certainly not recommend them
Thanks
