The backlog of visa applications is a significant issue. It has been written about previously, and the USCIS has faced a good deal of criticism over it. Here is one piece of such criticism: Migration Information Source - USCIS Faces Criticism over Visa Backlog (http://www.migrationinformation.org/USfocus/display.cfm?id=665)

The govt. authorities in Bangalore never gave my PF, citing some
spelling mistake in my fathers name. Guess if i showel down 10% bribe
in their throat , they might give. Later i didn't bother to pester them,
i am here. The babus also might think "This chap is in USA , minting $$$".
I can attest to that. It's not unusual to have to pay bribe from 10-25% to get the PPF money. And even that takes weeks/months to complete. I've personally known relatives in India who had to do that. It's not even considered anything out of ordinary there. Good Luck R2I's.

A freind of mine came across a gentleman, who is here on work visa and he is facing a unique problem. He is married to two persons and wants to bring his whole family here in the USA. He was looking for answer if he can get both his spouses and kids here on H4 visas. Currently both of them and his kids are in India. Interesting hmmm :D

It is sad...But how can this happen when you paid the money for the application?Did you contact the attorney directly?
I would like to know How to file a complaint about labor fraud? I just found out that my employer didn't file 485 for me and instead he used the labor for someone else. Is there anyway I can file a complaint? I have no other option except to wait until the dates are current again. I paid all the expenses for labor, 140 and 485.

Hi Sanbaj,
Congratulations for getting your GC !!
What were the PD's on your two I140's ? Were you able to port the PD of EB3 to EB2 ?
Both were EB2 from the same company. PD on one was Oct/2006 and the other was Feb/2002.

The photos I got from CVS was not bright enough. So the guy brightened the photos for me. Now the photos look a little touched up ...
What are considered bad photos?
I guess MOST of the people are concerned about the quality of photos than $ spent. My friend had RFE because the photos he got from CVS were not upto USCIS specifications. So any + experience is valuable to the forum.
Cheers..

I just called USCIS today and the officer told me that they haven't scheduled our biometrics yet since they are overwhelmed with the applications. She said I should wait till next year.
Also inquired about my name check and she said that they've started it and it's still pending...
Only option is to wait it out as always...

My dear friends,
I am so sad to tell the fact my I-140 got denied after the RFE response. In response to the RFE in September my lawyer responded to the RFE in November and the result came early this month (march 2008).
In the RFE response in last November my lawyer told USCIS that the category was marked wrong as EB2 where the case should be actually under EB3.
USCIS denied the application saying that application cannot be approved under EB2 and request for EB3 cannot be entertained at this point.
The following are the words from USCIS denial notice.
"The petitioner indicated that it had made an error in marking the petition form and that the petition should be considered one requesting the beneficiary's classification under a different section of law. However, since the petition was filed for second-preference classification and was initially adjudicated on that basis, USCIS will not at this stage consider it for some other classification.
In accordance with a USCIS announcement dated on May 23, 2007, the petitioner may elect to file a new petition on the beneficiary's behalf requesting a different visa classification but supported by the instant labor certification.(A motion making this request would be denied.) If the petitioner elects to persue this option, it should include a cover letter which explains the request, include a copy of this denial notice, and clearly report that the original labor certification is with LIN XXXXXXXXXX housed in AXXXXXXXXX. "
Also mine and my wife's I-485 got denied on the same day. In the denial notice of I-485 USCIS has mentioned that "The regulation does not provide for an appeal to this decision."
We are planning to file a new labor certification by end of this month as the current one is 99% a gone case
As you all know I was trying to save this application to save my wife's EAD.
Please help me with one of the options below.
Regarding my rejected I-140 I have two choices as per USCIS and my lawyer. Either of them should be filed 33 days from first week of march. Doing both of the below options at the same time will result in automatic rejection of both
1) Appealing the decision
Pros: My wife gets a chance to win her EAD back which is a big win for us
Cons: USCIS has indicated in the rejection notice that they are rejecting the I-140 because it does not qualify for EB2. they added that our request for converting it into EB3 cannot be entertained at this moment of time. So chances of winning the appeal is small compared to filing new I-140 as per my lawyer
2) Applying new EB3 I-140
Pros: Chances of getting an approval under this new EB3 I-140 is more compared to appealing the old EB2 application (the old application also includes and the request to convert EB2 into EB3)
Cons: Definite loss of my wife's EAD. Also since the labor is on Aug 2006 they have a common expiration date of Jan 2008. All labors from June 2007 (somewhere around that time) expire 6 months of the approval date and I-140 within that 6 months only will be considered for processing. Since we have passed the Jan 2008 period my lawyer is saying the new I-140 can also get rejected. the only argument we can place is, the processing time taken/length of old I-140 processing and the suggestion given on old I-140 denial notice dated march 1st week.
I am wondering whether we can do an MTR (Motion to re-open on the old application). This option is not mentioned by USCIS or lawyer. I am wondering whether this option will eliminate the appeal/new I-140 application within 33 days previlege
. My answer to my attorney regarding the next course of action depends on your advice(s) very much.
Thanks in advance and I really appreciate who posted replies to my questions earlier.

For couple of weeks in 2001, when I was getting H1 transfer, I was without pay. I applied H1 transfer before old H1 expired, but got the receipt notice after few weeks and only after that I started working. Am I out of status ?
For that matter, is it out of status if one gets paid from 2 companies with
2 H1bs ? If one is on bench but getting paid by one company, starts working with 2nd company on new H1b?

so, now they have bumped up EB3 ROw, does that mean they will bump up EB2 or EB3 India next month? The fact that EB2 and EB3 India are stuck, does it mean these categories have already reached their per country annual limits?
Judging by the 1-year leap for RoW, the priority date for ROW should have being moving throughout the year. Maybe the same situation here - they just cannot count, and are going to waste some visas at the year-end.

Guys...I found this blog in that site...This is one good example that employers watching the threads....so, wht may be the reason... never give the employer details...
Hi,
I was on Hib with EliteCareers and they had sposored by GC.
It was very smooth sailing. They had everything down, very professional. Everytthing reltated to following up on time sheets, payroll, leave, etc was handeled very efficiently.
When I had some problems with Blue Cross not passing a claim on the medical bill, I was able to get the benefits person in chanrge to talk to Blue Cross and resoolve it immediately.
Jeri-Mc Fadden was the person with whom I mainly interacted. And she was always there to help, guide, and interface with the client. Most important, whatever terms I had discussed and agreed with her at the start, she was true to it all the time. Even when the company said, "oh, this is not company policy, we do not allow this". she stepped in and said, but for him, we had made an exception. Please proceed. That was very helpful.
It was a totally stressless experience... not like other H1b experience I had where even if I had something in writing, I was never sure if the company would follow through.
here, I knew, they would.
For best reults, just make sure you have all agreements in writing... like when they will start your GC, who pays what. etc.
So even if Jeri is no longer there, you have that in place. And the company is professional to follow through.
Best part, my GC came through in 6 months of filing.... I-140 and 485 was a breeze.
Just my experience....make sure, you go throughall situations and agree on who does what before, and then no issues. The company follows through. It is a well managed.
