I've sent this mail a while back with this idea.I didn't send it today.(Just wanted to set that straight to avoid any misunderstandings )
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=23280
If we can still send the mails to ombudsman then may be we should all send lots of mails with just this message.
Thank you.
I will do the same right now. Many thanks "realizeit".
Also to one of the comments in this thread "It makes too much sense...". I fully agree with what you say about USCIS's loosing money. However, this suggestion will put them on the spot. At least they have to answer about why they are not willing to do so in case they say "no" (Obviously, they will not be able to say , they loose money).

According to a specialist on immigration forums "Mr UnitedNations" the unused visas are directly being used for EB3 ROW , I am not how he knows that but maybe thats what is happening.
Maybe EB3 ROW being a diverse group is being given more precendence than highly subscribed countries.
Your posts are getting very irritating with this blind belief in this "Unitednations" fellow. Why do you believe in him so much? What has he done?

Can someone comment on this one.
Is there a way to fix this issue. Can she send an "amended" form with correct dates. Does it matter after all?
Appreciate any advise

In 485 stage, she has mentioned her employment dates for employer 2 as starting from Feb 05. Will this be a problem?

Its already there. 20000 for masters and phd students.
Giving GC to stem is to bypass them from EB based line, which means they won't consume numbers from 140k. Isn't this good?
Nope it is not good
Why do STEM graduates have to have it the easy way while we have it hard. The least the STEM graduate can do is wait for 2 years for visa

Everyone in this forum knows that I am a complete moron: I did not even know ROW and Schedule A. So it does not make sense in paying attention to my advice. I still have the audacity to request everyone to pay more attention to the following.
No use fighting. Only the law makers can resolve this issue and they will not listen to us and pursue their own political interests.
Are we fighting over an unexistent pie? There is not even a small pie for us while we are discussing how to divide it.
Both sides have very valid points. It is perfectly fair game for everyone to present the best option for them; since I am moron I don't even know my best option. A healthy debate on the topic is insightfull specially to morons like me. Please convince me how this fight or a similar fight (vs a healthy debate) will lead us to our goal.
It is sad to see contributing members fighting over an issue that we may NOT have to resolve. I wish members contributed (financially) equally vigorously and helped equally vigorously in generating contributions from other members, because contributions will serve some purpose.
What should we be really worrying about?

For some reason this does not sound right. If there was spillover of 20000+ visas (of course, this was an assumption), have we seen that many approvals? To me the approvals seemed normal, not much.
Hope this info is incorrect.

To all those who are advising Mr. thunderbolt to not do anything and keep looking into their son's eyes for the rest of their lives thinking.... "I let someone beat you up when you were an infant and didn't do jack"... here is another one.
Say, instead you had a daughter who is about 9 yrs old. You hired some Indian dude on tourist visa to mow your lawn & you hire this dude coz he charges way less.One day, you witness this dude violating your daughter physically.
What do you do now? Is this situation different. The baby situation is worse.
I have no kids yet, but it pisses me off that people here would let a child abuser get away coz it might interfere with their american dream.
Tell me. Why should someone hire a illegal nanny in the first place? Knowing the consequences, why should they come on this forum and ask for support?
I strongly recommend thunderbolt to post the video on youtube and share it with all of us. He can share the link on sulekha also.
Well - it is his choice if he wants to complain to the police.
I am sure mr thunderbolt will never go to the cops because of his immigration status

jsb,
Now I think some major clarifications are needed here. The Receipt Date (RD) that is printed on the I-485 receipt is the date whenever queuing according to RD is needed. This is THE date wherever a FIFO is required and is as assigned as soon as the envelope containing the I-485 is received.
The ND only represents the date data-entry is made. This is the date which is mentioned erroneously as "received date" on the USCIS online system. Now this thing has been mentioned at USCIS liaison meetings by center directors and thro' AILA several times (I will post the reference as soon as I find it).
That said whenever I talked to NSC officers (not the National Customer SC non-officers or regional call center IIO's or Infopass ignoramuses) ..officers who personally were aware of the going on's at the service center they said the Notice date does not carry any value for case adjudication priorities and the CLAIMS 3 systems only sequences (or sweeps as they call it) as per the PD and RD (when needed).
Further, since I see all the notes made for my approved I-485 (thro' FOIA) including the worksheet completed by contractors. I clearly do not see any notations mentioned with reference to the ND on it...
That said, for the OP, since your RD is very close to the "official" processing date there are all chances that your application might have already gone under the eyes of a CAO (Center Adjudication Officer). Call NSC directly and ask since you are so close and especially since your date is going current next month....you want to make sure that your file is either pre-adjudicated OR assigned to an officer.
Normally, RD (on your receipt), and actual data entry date followed by the notice should be in quick succession. Logically, ND is just a notice date, therefore, when questioned they are correct in saying that ND has no relevance for any processing decisions. Due to high volumes of July/Aug 07, a lot of case files were just lying in warehouses for months before a center agreed to accept them. That's why you see online RD so different (and very close to ND).
If your statement in your first para is true, centers will have to do a lot of work for manually sorting thousands of cases before placing them in cabinets, which is quite impractical. Unless somebody is forcing them to do so, it is highly unlikely to happen. Note that issues under discussion are impacted by high volumes of July/Aug 07 for which systems are not designed. Also, as most cases are not PD dependant, USCIS systems don't handle them well, as they are not designed for handling PD based cases efficiently.

since that is important i have replied to you in pm. i wish that everyone could read once and for all but i will hold myself to not posting the reply on this thread.
i believe you still do not understand the system. please read your pm.
paskal, you are making up things here that that priorities are Eb1->Eb2->Eb3
Eb1->Eb2->Eb3 is correct only from education and experience for the Job point of view but not true from Quota point of view all get 33.33per year.
�The argument that Eb1 is preferred/priority above Eb2 and BE2 is preferred/priority over EB3 is absurd.
The regular yearly BE quota is distributed equally among all three categories that means equal priority for all groups. So then why they should not follow the same distribution for the overflow numbers also?
Said that all BE3 applicants who are eligible should port there PD to EB2, simple. When you know how the system works try to adapt to it.�
We filed our CGs when we don�t know the system, we just trusted out attorneys. If we have to do this CG stuff again most of us will do it differently.
"look, i am not trying to pull down EB3 folks in any way form or manner." I will take your work on this. But the message I got from reading your postings is different, hope that is not your intent. I am just letting you know, I am not accusing you, just giving my feedback.
Please dont close this thread because of my post.

1. they have country limit for diversification. >> us(culprit) immigration is broken.
2. substitution labor >> desi employers(culprit) sold it.
3. my employer did not file for GC because layoffs couple of years back. >> general public are culprit. they caused our employer to get loss.
4.other employers filed GC for other people. >> other employers are culprit. they filed GC to retain their employers.
5.EB2 category : if they do not exist, I would have got spillover visas.
6.EB1 employers : employers are filing in EB1 category for the same skill set as mine
7.EB2 employers: employers are filing in EB2 for the same skill set as mine.
8.Dollar : Seriously. Dollar is a culprit. Last year Dollar value is less. So many foreigners are able to afford dollar and they filed for investor visa. Without that I would have got spillover visas
9.140 portability : many people are porting 140, PD from previous employer to new employer. They are able to retain old priority dates than me.
Any others??
How can I get GC with all these things.
Folks, this is for your information. not for the argument.
just kidding. :)
How about stopping the disscussions which divides the community.
I can understand the frustration of long wait for GC. The fight is for immigrant and non immigrant visas. Everyone(individuals like you and me), desi employers, desi MNCs, american companies wants to play by rules. The system is not fair. thats the reality.

We have a number of things to argue in a lawsuit. One can be the double dipping thing that a USCIS official himself agreed.
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_empbas.html
Then the lost visa numbers due to USCIS inefficiency can also be argued. There is a slim chance of visa bills being passed. Those people who are counting on Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill to pass there is a very slim chance also because Zoe Longfren herself told in a TV interview that anti immigrant groups are very strong now. The OPT lawsuit is the best example of hue and cry that anti immigrant groups are making.

Our problem is that we do not want to accept this news. Unless we receive some confirmed news to contrary we should not blame someone who might have shared this news with us in good faith. Let's try to find out the truth first.
It may be right. One of my congresswomen assistants called up USCIS and they were told that due to many apps, there is lot of confusion and they will get back to her in week's time. Not sure but looks like USCIS/DOS has boned this up again :-)
