If USCIS wants to do bad regulations, they will do it - with or without IV campaign for reform. What is the gaurantee that Michael Aytes will not issue a memo tommorrow restricting job movements further? They always keep doing that every now and then, on their own.
Given the current volume of changes 350,000 apps, regulations are bound to change, one way or another. Whether you want it or not. If USCIS officers (not the top brass) feel overburdened with EAD/AP work they'll start issuing more, and more, random RFEs, NOIDs etc. to reduce their burden ( passing the burden to you). They also might introduce labor market and other restrictions to reduce the backlog by eliminating all AC21 users. What is stopping them from doing it on their own?
Evading activity under the pretext of imaginary fears will not stop USCIS tommorrow if they decide to pass tough regulations. By requesting the 'right' changes, we are making sure 'wrong' changes don't happen. For that to happen we need to get involved in the decision-making process and influence the decisions in the right direction.
Agreed. Positive intervention is always better.

I called the Nogales (mexico) US embassy and they were able to look up the PIMS system using the petition number.
I hope the PIMS is a "centralized" system. So even the consulate in India would be using the same.
R u going to Nogales or just called to inquire???

Dude,
Sunnysurya is busy trying to get people for the lawsuit. He will not reply to you.
According to IV Tracker, his EB2 PD is Nov 2005. He has filed in Nebraska.
Thanks
EB2 folks with PD 2006 and later and also those in TX center, beware!
He might file a lawsuit against you guys as well for 'skipping' the line.
LOL.

Pappu,
I agree with you on this, there is some truth to this that there could be delays when there are multiple filings. In fact this is the first time when USCIS has to deal with so many multiple filings, a very few lawyers have any direct experience with it. From USCIS Standard Operating Procedure, there is a mention of "second filing" (not duplicate filing) in the following places:
1. Procedural Overview (Page 4)
2. File Review (Page 46)
3. Interview Waiver Criteria (Page 185)
http://www.ilw.com/seminars/august2002_citation2b.pdf
From the link above:
In (1) and (2) above it says second filing should be handled under the normal process. Although if different A# are assigned case goes to CRU (case resolution unit). But if A# assigned are same, you are more or less processed like a normal case. The last part (3) interview waiver criteria, multiple filing is mentioned as one of the deviations from interview waiver criteria but it NOT the interview criteria itself. In the end processing time for multiple filing is very much up to the discretion of adjudicating officer. Also, I didn't find any reason to believe that there could be issues with security check with multiple filings.
I think all of us multiple filers can breathe easy if our cases are filed clearly with full disclosure of information without any intended willful violation.
I am a multiple filer too, my I-485 application filed in early June was approved last week. I hope this gives some reason for optimism for us multiple filers. Good luck to everyone. BTW: I am still a contributing member and will continue to hang out at IV.
After much research on this, I tend to agree with this answer above (not the CP part though). As per my latest information from a lawyer who does multiple filings, the processing delay can be significant due to this. Looking back, wish our community had more information on this and more real examples of people who have done it. It would have helped members who were unsure if they should do multiple filings.
Anyways this thread will be useful for future I485 filers.

My priority Date is EB2 May 2006. I will be current if the dates got moved.
I will be out of the country for the entire month of May.
Please let me know if it is acceptable to be out of the country during 485 approval.
Also please let me know what I need to do at the port of entry.
May not be acceptable. As soon as your dates become current, I guess you will be eligible to file for 485 on May 1st. and you must.
Come June 1st and if they retrogress, for some reason, you will miss it.
Better check with your attorney, but I think I'm right.

100% agree with 'whitecollarslave'. The case is not about h1b worker, but an AOS pending status worker, I would think this status is very similar/same as asylees, and refugees.
I think taking h1b out of equation would help 'OSC' see through.

I Have opened an SR on Aug 6th and then sent an email to TSC followup . I got a response from them on friday " We are currently researching this situation and will contact you with an update." HAs anybody this kind of response?
Thank you
I had created two different SRs, one for myself and kids and one for my wife. The SR which I created for my wife got a response with Card Production Ordered and for the SR I created for myself, the status in the response was "currently under the review". The date was one day before my CPO mail date.
I guess you have nothing to worry. This seems to me as a standard response.

I have a question regarding this whole idea of filing on your own:
Whats the reason for doing this? Is it because:
1. Attorneys will be busy during this time
2. Employer will not file 485
3. Bad Experience with Attorneys
4. Anything else please explain
If 2, whats the guarantee that he will not cancel your LC/140 once he knows that you are filing on your own?
Sorry about bringing this up. My employer is ready to file 485 but not EAD and AP. He says if we don't renew our EADs on time then we will be out of status and hez seen lot of such cases. Can I file EAD and AP on my own and let my employer file 485?
Thank you all for the patience!!!
For me, its 1 and 3. I am sick of my company's lawfirm. They are slow and they always end up filing things late. I almost lost my driver's licence renewal in April due to their procrastination and slowness in apply for H1 extension. If they do the same thing in this, then dates can retrogress and window of opportunity closes.
Besides, I somehow feel that errors on forms are more likely when paralegals do your paperwork rather than you doing your paperwork.
I am planning to keep a backup of all paperwork to file on my own if the lawfirm fails to file it by the 7th or 8th July. I will fire them and tell them to back off and do this on my own. I think that if they cant burn the midnight oil and work overtime during such critical times, then they deserve to lose business and we deserve to take care of our problems.

Like others have pointed out, it looks like that the numbers are being allocated in a different way from before. Does any one know of any article or discussion by a real attorney or some expert on what is going on?
But, going back to my original question, what are the legal experts saying? Can any legal entity or any type of action force USCIS to explain what the heck is going on?
http://immigration-information.com/forums/blog.php?b=13
The second paragraph from the link says that the new spill-over policy is not a random, ad hoc decision by USCIS but rather a careful one after consulting congress etc.

Thanks much for providing this info..i will be contacting my local congressmen..I need small help..where can i find my A#?
USCIS declares in weekly updates that actual package receiving date will be recognized as the Receipt date. However, as filings are shuttled between centers in an effort to push work around, when data is entered, a different date appears. This needs to be corrected. Further, as there are still cases not owned by any center, weekly updates are misleading. Each center just reports on what it has accepted to deal with. This needs to be addressed as well.
I think congressmen should be approached with the larger and collective problem, which is likely to get attention/action. Individual cases just receive standard replies.
I am a July 2 filer still waiting for an action

Yes I had one pending and no RFE was received for either. My lawyer is expecting a notification from USCIS stating the second one is withdrawn.
congratulations! So you had the second I-485 still pending when teh first one got approved? Did you get any RFE about it from USCIS or were you asked to withdraw one of the petitions?

What will that accomplish really ? I dont know if working for this place will be a good idea anyway after filing a suit against them... but OTOH if it helps other people or at least if its out there on the net, so other companies wont get his brilliant idea....

I cannot believe you are saying this. Are you actually saying that you will let stuff like this happen just because you think your company might get rid of you if you complain? If your wife or daughter has a boss who is flashing her everyday, will you actually tell your wife or daughter to 'suck it up' and put up with it just because you fear she may not get a reference??
Laws are designed to prevent this exact kind of thing. I personally would, to quote a Hindi movie dialog, take a sledge-hammer and change the geography of the abuser's face. On a more practical note, I would lawyer up, collect evidence, spin up a multi-million dollar lawsuit, and use settlement money to sip MaiTai on some beach in Lanai, while the harasser gets to suck on cock-meat sandwiches in the nearest penitentiary.
Sense of guilt... the guy who is breaking the law should have that. Not the victim who wants a reference. C'mon grow a penis!
Well, I am just stating facts. Just because you dont like them, I cant help it. You got to learn to move on. There is a saying in my native tongue " A smart man should never climb the stairs of a court." My grandfather was a prosecutor and and used to tell this to me many times. But thats just me. If you have a big penis, go ahead and file a lawsuit and let me know what happens.
And, btw, never did I mention about reference, so check on your reading comprehension skills next time you respond.
My friend, even exxon valdez guys have not collected money from lawsuits yet. So I stand by my advise. By the time you actually collect something, you will be in no position to sip either mai tai nor travel to hawaii.

Super news for every body. Assuming 0 approvals in September :p
only 4000 EB1 pending; even if all of them are approved, and with 1000 more in 2010, we have 30,000 EB1 rolling over to EB2. ROW EB2 quota ~ 25,000. pending eb2 row = 7150. even if we have 15,000 more approved in 2010, eb2 row consumes 22,000 and the remaining supply = 33,000 which can go to china, india, mexico and philippines.
mexico and philippines, eb2 is minimal .. maybe 700. so all of 32,000 needs to go to India and china. I dont know how the split will be here. if it is equal and china gets 16,000 they move to mid 2007 easily and India moves to Apr 2006.
However, we know the calculations wont be this precise and cut-off will move to 2007 in Aug 2010 which is when all the lucky bums will get approvals left and right.
