It looks like USCIS has deployed the same random selection program, used for new H1B selection, to process I-485 applications.:(
They are based on I-140.

When should I start rumbling?
Filed Date : Aug 30th 2010
Receiept date : Aug 30th 2010
SLUD's thrice : 09/03,09/10 and 11/05
E-filed, Texas Service center and sent in supporting docs.
No emails or anything so far... Should i wait the whole 90 days before starting to make some noises?
I filed my EAD on the same date at Nebraska recieved that last week.
I just cannot understand why they need to do this filing and can't make EAD/AP a single doc and valid for two years.. Just plain frustrated. :mad:

My manager surprised me today saying that I was promoted yesterday from a programmer analyst to a systems analyst. I have an approved i-140 and have filed my 485. My priority date for EB3 is current. I also have a 3 year extension of H1B.
There is no change in the job responsibilities.
Question:
1. How soon should I file my AC21 request?
2. What is the impact of this promotion on my H1B?
3. I have waited for 7 years and I may be close to getting my Green Card. How does the AC 21 impact my pending 485?
I declined my promotion. My manager said that it would take a lot of effort to unwind this promotion. He was not pleased with my request.
Any ideas?
I am sorry, but this is just plain paranoia that seems to affect a lot of GC holders & aspirants. I have a friend who was worried about changing jobs as it was only 6 months since he got his GC!
You are *not* required to file AC21. Even if you do, in your case, it should present no problems at all, as your role & responsiblities have hardly changed.
It is not a wise approach to deny a promotion when you are not clear about the law. First be clear on the law and then make such important decisions.

People with '01/'02 PD's getting GCs before the rest is a bad thing because .....?
One minor side effect is that India EB dates might further retrogress because still there a lot of folks with PD 2001,2002 etc pending namecheck clearance.

On one hand we have VLD Rao crunching numbers like CRAY XMP and telling that EB2 will be close to current by End of the Year . On the other hand Mapadpa now says that the movement will be slow . I am a mere mortal and i am confused to the core on what to make of it ,

Suppose I have an approved I-140 in EB3, and I ask my employer to port to EB2, and the EB2 i-140 gets denied. Does it result in losing my PD?
AFAIK, you do not lose your PD.

You say all these because you understand. Most of these police officers out there (and even Immigration Enforcement officers) dont understand the laws they are enforcing. I once asked an american embassy consular officer during an H1B renewal interview how long I had to stay in the US if I get laid off from my job. She smiled and said she doesnt know. Ironic right? That is US Immigration laws for you. So complex yet so unreasonable.

isnt a visa number assigned when they apply for 485?
good point in item 4. When i talk to people from other countries about visa issues and IV they just look at the processing dates for 485 and think that GC will be approved in 6 months.
I wish that were the case. Unfortunately visa number is allotted only after EVERYTHING else is done and that is why we have to endure additional suffering i.e. even if your case is ready for approval it will remain pending because visa number is unavailable.

but even with this big announcement tomorrow, we still only have 140,000 visas and keep in mind USCIS has just been averaging about 100,000 per year. (so about 40,000 get wasted every year)
All all this does is to push the bottleneck further down the pipeline.
the only benefit I see is that it helps with filing of AP and EAD which does not help someone like me with my 485 already pending
Sorry I dont share the enthusisam

I would not call you pessimistic. You are SELFISH. Sure you do not share the same enthu because this announcement does not offer you anything. Grow up and feel for others. Everyone knows that there will be a backlog and that is an issue we have to deal with once we get there.

Agreed in principle!!! You guys have done the homework. I am just narrating my wishes:); and the wish-list keeps growing!:); man, cannot wait to just get done with this process.
Good luck and nite!!!
Guys, let us not get carried away. The Immigration and Nationality Act clearly says that the Attorney General shall give Employment Authorization to people with pending Adjustment of Status. It is just the duration of the EAD that is left with the discretion of USCIS.
People keep throwing around the phrase "Administrative solution". In this country, just about everything is codified by law. Some things, like the EAD duration, can be tackled Administratively. However, USCIS isn't going to give up a cash cow, viz. the fees from yearly EAD renewals, easily. It is a lot easier to have Congress mandate three year EAD extensions than to convince USCIS to do it.
I guess the argument that BKarnik is trying to make is that USCIS should be administratively mandated to give Employment Authorizations to people with approved immigrant petitions. However, in the last few months, I have been looking at INA on a regular basis. Most immigration practices are codified in INA, and I would be really hesitant to even ask for an administrative fiat to this effect. Remember, an anti-immigrationist can equally easily have it removed. When Congress passes something, however, it has the force of law.
I do not agree with statements like "Most USCIS practices are regulations, not law". Not true. INA codifies what USCIS should do.

Guys, please take attorney advise before rushing in to refile. Duplicate applications may create problems for you later on.
Imagine, given the huge retrogression how many countless times we will be refiling our EADs ad APs if we don't act now.
Many people are blissfully enjoying the fruits of labor of some very dedicated IV member who selflessly participated in San Jose rally and flower campaign. These efforts were instrumental in the July visa bulletin reversal. Isn't it time we all stood up for our rights and make a strategic impact through a legislative change rather then just be satisfied with a tactical July visa bulletin reversal win?
I can't talk enough about how vital it is for you to act now. Presidential race will kick in after October/ November time frame. Our window of opportunity is short. Lets help ourselves!

Yes, I did use LS.
But my motive was not to jump the line as I told my company attorney to purposefully find an LC from this year or last year. And since it was a multibillion dollar company with some xx thousand employees. They were able to find one.
Not everyone's motives is to jump the line. I did this because I didnt want to wait another 10 years to apply for I 485.
And on the top, dont even think that all who did LS were able to jump the line. LS involves lot of scrutiny and it was always safer to use one's own labor.
Its so funny that some people think that people who cannot prove themselves for what ever reasons (education etc) with their own labor use LS. hehehe. This is even more riskier.
And it was always legal to do it. And may be many people and employers misused it. Shout at those people.
As for me, my labor was going nowhere and the company with which I worked for the past few years found an LS for me which was from last year PD and I do not regret doing it.
And I bet, people who had an opportunity like me would do it.
And also, THE THREAD WAS NOT OPENED WITH A TITLE "WHAT IS YOUR OPINION ABOUT LS, SHOULD IT BE BANNED". There were a number of threads on this forum where you can show these kinds of opinions. This thread was opened for a different purpose.
And moveover LS is banned now. So dont waste your energyy but use it for some good causes IV is planning for.

I would think coming from MI, a state that has one of the highest unemployment, and the relief that the auto industry got - it continues to exist because of those liberal fiscal policies.
Besides, his being liberal fiscally/socially has nothing to do with our issues. He is probably the best ally for our issue in the democratic circle...
Cannot agree more, I find it idiotic we blaming someone because they are liberal in something. Most of us come from a country where 90% of the time "corrupt" is the only way we can define politicians. Listening to talking heads on TV shows and parroting the same crap sounds stupid. The environment right now is not conductive to any kind of immigration bill unless done in very absolute secret. This is a lame duck session,no one knows what will happen after 2 years.
Someone was talking about distinguishing between illegal and legal, yes but once they start digging in deeper we have the dreaded "H1B". Hopefully the economy continues to improve ,due to so-called liberal policies, and we have better job market and public sentiment improves. Don't know if IV has any strategic plan for this time frame.
BTW, Someone blaming a president for being liberal socially when they are the smallest minority in the country is absolutely stupidly mind boggling!!!
