If they are indeed genuine then there should nothing be worried about. They would come out clean. Remember, the whole labor certification is to protect the interest of American people and not foreign workers like you and me.
If DOL scrutinizes such petitioners more than others, then its good. That will weed out pretenders; but also on the other hand, that will put genuine candidates petiotions into a pre-adjudicated state.

You will be considered a PR the day your I-485 was approved. In my case, I am not sure where they got the 2008 date. Most likely it is a data entry error.
Based on my conversation with USCIS customer service, when I return to US, at POE the officer will definitely notice the discrepancy that my I-485 was approved on 09/20 but the card says something else. This might lead to further questions... Better to avoid all this and get it corrected.
It could also lead to issues during citizenship as I am aware of the error. Best is to get a replacement card with correct details. It is surely a hassle considering the 3-4 months wait time, but the right thing to do.
Yes, it was based on the State you lived. One other thing, you may want to check with Customer Service, since when are you have been actually considered a PR. If they have considered you as a PR since 2008, it is good for you, you will be able to apply for Citizenship sooner

Subject: From the office of Congressman Todd Akin
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2006 10:25:23 -0500
Thank you for contacting me and expressing concern regarding
immigration.
As you are aware, the massive influx of illegal aliens is one of the
most important issues confronting our nation. According to the Center for
Immigration Studies, there are at least 8 million illegal immigrants in
the United States. The United States Census Bureau estimates that the
illegal population in the United States grows by at least 500,000 per
year. All Americans have good reason to be concerned about this issue,
given the dynamics of assimilation, language and employment raised by
illegal immigration.
Amnesty proposals and guest worker permits are just some of the options
that Congress currently is considering. Another possibility is the H2B
Working Visa, which allows foreign nationals to enter the United States
temporarily to meet a one-time need in non-agricultural employment.
This is a good option, but I would not support H2B visas whose provisions
could not be enforced strictly and were not offset by immigration
cutbacks in some other area.
The problem with most of the options before us is that they do not deal
with the fundamental problem at hand: Millions of immigrants have
entered the country illegally. When we can establish firm, thorough and
effective enforcement measures we can better address the appropriate level
and need for H1 and L1 visas.
Border control is essential for our economic and physical security. I
appreciate your deep concern with this issue, and will keep your
thoughts in mind as Congress considers our legislative options.
Again, thank you for contacting me. Feel free to contact me again if I
might be of assistance in the future
----------
Indeed i approached him specifically for backlog reduction and other important features (similar to those in S1932 Sec8001) but i got the above response.
Anyway, one thing is very clear: We need to increase efforts in a much productive manner to clearly emphasise on legal immigration which is broken & SHALL NEVER be kept in the same tray of illegal immigration

All the calculations are based on the following assumptions
a)Number of EB2(ROW) Labor approval from PERM would be in the range of thousands, say maximum 5000.
The reasons are
1) Increased Audit and backlog built by PERM system
2) Bad Economy.
b) Spillover to EB2 would benefit india more than China.
But even if 50% of pending PERM are cleared this year then the # of EB2 would be more.
So every EB2 should pray that the PERM system should work in the same pace for next 1 year.
But, woudn't the 75% of 140K quota for next two years be consumed by ROW applicants who are about to apply. Becoz they are current wouldn't the VISA number go to them..
All the above calculations I guess are assuming that the entire 140K will be given the pending 485 application..May be I am missing something.

The more than half million highly-skilled legal immigrants already working productively in the United States find themselves trapped in a system that is taking years longer than intended.

Can somebody comment on the following two things? This has been asked twice before on this thread (once by me and again by somebody else) but has gone unanswered.
1. How many unused visa numbers can be re-captured? Out of those re-captured, how many can be applied to EB categories? I know this is difficult to estimate this but if we believe that recapturing unused visas would help the retrogression issue, we ought to have some idea (in hundreds? thousands? more?) as to how many visa numbers can be re-captured and used towards EB categories.
2. Does the President have the authority to implement an administrative relief in this matter, particularly to recapture the unused immigrant visas? Elsewhere I have read that only congress has the authority to do this.
Please provide links/references or analysis to back up the claims.
Thanks!
Disclaimer: This is not to discourage anybody, rather just a healthy skepticism.

Hello every one,
I am starting this thread for all of us not to just think about the GC process. If any one is residing here for 10 years without GC, think about making a law which can lead us to Citizenship. My thoughts on this:
Many of our colleagues who landed with us during the late 90s (1998, 1999) and early 2000, who got their GC without any issues are now Citizens or waiting to become Citizen soon.
What is our status?. Just think. Still we are strugling to get the GC. Even by law change, if we are getting the GC this year (by GOD's Grace), then we need to wait for another 5 years from now (approximately 2014). Many persons like me who have come to this Country in their later career will be very much affected due to this delay (we have lot of other issues like the dependents reaching the age of 21 etc., College, University fees etc.,).
Core team and every one, please consider this and try to lobby for getting the citizenship without further wait if the persons satisfy the folowing conditions:
1. If they are legally here for 10 years (With approved I-140 and waiting for Adjustment of Status without current date).
2. If they have earned full 40 points in Social Security
3. If they have paid the tax continuously for 10 years
4. If they own a house and paying Mortgage (adding weightage to the Economy boost)
and
5. If they do not have any criminal records in these 10 years.
Please again do not just concentrate on the GC issues. Consider this and if any one can come with a letter draft with legal openion, we can send it to all Congress members, State Governers etc.,
Hope the members and the Core team consider this issue. I have one more thread on this, which I started some months back but the response was not that good. If every one of us unite on this and raise this to the Congress, I think the new Government may consider as this is very genuine.
Guys,
I saw a thread in IV for fixing the EB issues, which lot of guys are sending mails to whitehouse.gov. Why don't we send a mail to whitehouse.gov regarding citizenship?. If some one can draft a good mail with the details I provided, all of us can send a mail. If there are lot of mails on the same subject, definitely, it will go to the attention of the President.

for once sepia mutiny decided to cover our story. i still dont understand that blog. more than 80% of the posts are dedicated to ridiculing indian issues...most of the contributors are indian americans...but they never cover our issues.
i cant understand why they cant make up their mind...either limit yourself to covering indian american issues or accept that we are a part of your ethnic group too. is there an african american blog that keeps harping about child mortality in africa? is there a italian american blog that is dedicated to researching origins of pasta recipes in italy?
i dont get them but at least we get some more coverage.

Good. Initial Review can jump to CPO as it is literally a matter of 15mins for the Adjudication Officer to approve the case!
Up until last year till the pre-adjudication was restarted, almost all cases were first look to approval.

I have a feeling that the IO might look at the applications received on Aug 17, 2007, only at last. Its because, when I went for infopass, the IO said that, "You have filed on the last date, so you will have to wait".
Anyhow, I have tried all that I could, and now I leave it to the Almighty.[/QUOTE]

You know every time I hear the so called "highly skilled and educated" complaining about predatory lending, it reminds me of our maid servant in India. She would constantly get into trouble by borrowing money from her neighborhood sharks at high interest rates, and then come to my parents for help when she couldn't pay up. My parents would give her a well meaning scold, and help her out only because they knew she was illiterate.
Now I wonder how these guys like punjabi7, kumar1 and leo2606 can blame the lender only for what they got themselves into. They even go as far as claiming that moral, ethics, and scruples are all some kind of fairy tale virtues that are hardly ever practiced in real life. They even have the audacity to assume everyone else here shares their definition of what's right and wrong by saying everyone has at one point or another returned used items to stores!
Punjabi7 still insists on avoiding morals in the discussion and is persistently soliciting for "advice/options" for his so called mess.
sledge_hammer
Your posts are enlightening and breath of fresh air in an otherwise non-nonsensical forum discussion. Although people would want to, but talk about ethics and moral is not forbidden, not yet at least.
The very people tossing aside ethics are the ones who used good faith based credit system. Now suddenly it is all Capitalism, Greed, Bank's and Lender's fault. Whatever happen to personal responsibility ?
All those suggesting foreclosure are forgetting one thing: The pendulum has shifted and the same capitalism that supported the reckless credit is now going to choke it off. You don't want to be on the wrong side twice !!!! The thing about free markets is they adjust to new realities long before people do.Before you know it the easy walking away (or foreclosure) might become the biggest mistake while buying house might be distant second.
In the meanwhile please don't shoot the messenger aka sledge_hammer. If you read his posts he has given the best advice with a good dose of much needed reality and sound language. If you are hostile towards him you are simply in denial. The longer you stay there the harder it will be to cope with the new realities.
Punjabi77, good luck to you buddy. This will pass too, don't ruin everything for $20K. You will earn it back but you can't undo foreclosure and whatever comes with it in terms of personal memory, your credit and things in future that you can't foresee now. Do the right thing it will only make you stronger and someday you will be able to tell your kid that you did the right thing in the face of adversity and eventually not only survived it but thrived out of it.

Hi all,
I am planning for a trip to india and get my first visa stamping done some time in may. My visa was approved in july 2007. Does anyone think that this issue will prolong till may? Or will all these database updates for the PIMS verification checks be complete by then? Any inputs will be highly appreciated. Thanks.
