Weird situation, I decided to call the 800# and got a nice lady who unfortunately spoke very fast for me to grasp.
I mentioned that Since my 140 approval in Jan '09 and as Primary applicant who received a 2nd fingerprinting notice (completed on 5th July 09) and my wife never received any notice.
When I mentioned that I have not received any case updates at all no LUD's even. She checked her systems and said I can see your case is transferred to VSC in Feb '09 and they are currently processing July 24, 2006 you case is within the time frame for processing. When I mentioned that my case has gone from NSV -->TSV -->VSC she could say no more except that they are within the processing time frame. She couldn't give any more details if the case is pre-adjudicated or not.
I mean what the point of PD if their are processing at their schedule and if every transfer means a new shift in dates. I got to get an infopass appointment since the dates are current for me next month.
Sucks just when i wanted to shift houses and now lawyers says wait since your dates are current do not risk doing AR-11

His research (computational fluid dynamics (CFD)) papers are not even submitted because of him not being on Green Card.
Thanks for sending this to us. This will definitely help our case as an immigrant wants to help the US Governement project with his research and he is thinking about going back to his country

USCIS UPDATES COUNT OF FY 2008 H-1B CAP FILINGS
WASHINGTON � U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced an updated number of
filings today as the counting of H-1B petitions received on April 2 and 3 continues. On April 3, USCIS
announced that it had received enough petitions to meet the congressionally mandated cap for fiscal year
2008 (FY 2008) and that it would conduct a computer-generated random selection of cap-subject petitions
filed on Monday (April 2) and Tuesday (April 3) to determine which cases would be accepted for processing.
As of April 9, USCIS has determined that approximately 119,193 of the H-1B petitions received on April 2
and 3 are subject to the FY 2008 congressionally mandated cap.
USCIS received on April 2 and 3 a total of approximately 12,989 cases requesting an exemption from the FY
2008 H-1B cap because they were filed on behalf of aliens holding a master�s degree or higher from a U.S.
institution. USCIS can now announce that the cap of 20,000 on these exempt cases remains open and that
USCIS will continue to monitor these filings.
USCIS will provide regular updates as the processing of FY 2008 H-1B cap cases continues.
Is this the final number or interim number while the counting is going on.

I really don't understand why people think I am lying????
When I read the memo, I was more worried about my name check and whether she would check the status of it than about this, as anyhow my dates are not current. After showing the memo, she did offer to check the status.
With all the experience our guys have with USCIS officers and staff, it's hard to belive an IO would be that helpful? But, she's and even the staff at this office is not as bad as others have experienced.
I was even telling my wife about the behaviour and how staff at other offices behave.

1. What is your EB category?

2. What exactly did the memo say? Now be careful and think hard before you post.
- I can't reproduce as it is, as I just had a cursoy look at it. I just went through it. I was more worried about my Namecheck, as she hadn't said she would let me know about my Namecheck as of the moment.
When she showed it to me, I was expecting that the memo would be from USCIS, but it was clearly written at the top as Department of State?
For instance, you may cover the following in your post:
- Who was it addressed to?
I don't remeber.
- What was the subject?
It was some thing like 245- xxxxx India/China- Was it about about EB or FB?
It was about EB and she said it is for EB2 India/China
- Did it mention any dates?
Not Sure
- Did it mention any country names?
- Yes. India/China
- Was there anything about what the adjudicators are supposed to do?
I don't remember exactly. But at the bottom it URGENT was written three times. The IO said they just received it and it supersedes everything.
- Which city/state was this?
In Midwest.
Your response will be very helpful.
I guess this is related to 245(i) on the Visa re-capture. They may have passed a memo to this effect that it will not be used anymore due to the Grandfathering rule and will not apply to EB folks henceforth...
This may be a misunderstanding issue.
Not sure whether there is any other reason for having that number 245 which is mentioned in bold above....
I may be 100% wrong on this...

Harish,
In the initial update release by INS, it is stated that
"USCIS will reject all cap-subject H-1B petitions for FY 2008 received on or after Wednesday, April 4, 2007."
They are saying that they will reject and they obviously are not meaning that they will REFUSE the Courier/ Post the application materials received after this date. So, it could happen that they will accept all applications that are being sent but will reject only after they confirm that they have reached the limit.
So, what if Master;s quota does not reach the limit? so still might have a chance. So, try to find an employer who will be willing to hire you and sponsor your H1 under Master;s quota. So, if they have received less applications and start looking for the ones received after April 4th you might stand a chance.
One another factor is "You do not have a masters degree yet and you will not have it until May as you are graduating in May. So how will your application be treated as Masters" here is my thinkng
you will file with all the available supporting documents and you will make it appear as if you indeed are filling under Master's quota. Your application will have insufficient doccumentation and they will raise a query on your app. and by the time this happens you can hope that you will receive your degree, or you will delay it till the maximum possible extent and will send them back with supporting Masters Degree. Again these are just my thinking you might want to validate with some professionals as whether or not this logic stands a chance.
Even, if you do not get a chance to apply now. I do not think you need to defer your master. Go aheah and complete your masters as planned and accept the opt. You will apply for H1 in 2008 for H1 to start from October. Now, the question is about the period June - October 2008. You can enril your selves in some short term course, Kaplan has some which will also give you I20. So these courses will help you sail during this period.
Hope this long content helps!!!

1) Since the letter refers to "we" (the legal immigrants), should we be individually signing the letter?
individal sign should be fine
2) Are we going to provide our mailing address as well as email IN THE EVENT that there will be a response to our questions?
e-mail address and name is fine
3) What happens if there is no response?
nothing. We just registered our protest.
4) In the letter, I said action must be taken in the remaining 15 days .. BUT HOW CAN ANYTHING BE DONE AS THE STANDARD RESPONSE IS "the annual quota is exhausted" ??? i.e., there are no more visas to allocate!!
this is just to give them some sense of the timeline.

donated $50; learned about the organization on June 8, participated in the event - not knowing any of the issues. Was an eye opener to the legislative process. I did not do much, just accompanied the IV members to the meetings - these members were well prepared to present the case as well as to answer questions. I am impressed, and here I am registered and donated.
Thank you IV for being pro-active. Feels good to be part of the action.
Thanks Motivated for your contributions.
Please post on the funding drive.

I read on Rajiv Khanna's blog that PD for LC substitution cases should be the date when I-140 is filed for substitute however, there is evidence that USCIS has wrongly assigned orginal priority date of LC filing, to substitute (I have seen this happening in one case at least, where susbstitue got priotity date of LC).

Its a pity that we are engaging in such talk & encouraging him. We should not entertain this guy here. Just ignore him & let his thread not come up. And as for results, we will see our strength on Sept 18th.
We all know our strengths & talents & skills. We don't need to give any clarifications to him.
Let channelize our energy in a positive way & get more people to attend the rally.
Its an earnest request to fellow IV members, PLEASE IGNORE THIS GUY!!! And if the moderators wish to, lets delete this thread!!!

I'm fine with Eb2-I progressing, but shouldn't there be something to move Eb3 too. Its crazy to think that folks in Eb3 with dates of 2002/03 are still waiting while Eb3 folks from 2005 are now current.

Yes, that would suffice as a name change in the passport. My situation was as follows.
Passport:
Surname: Y**** Z****
Given name: X****
I requested for an observation from SFO consulate and got it corrected to the following format.
Surname: Z****
Given name: X**** Y****
I got this done through mail and these were the documents required
1. Passport
2. $10 Cashiers cheque
3. Miscellaneous service form
4. self addressed and prepaid usps envelope
5. Cover letter
I guess as long as you dont change the spelling of your name, you do not require an advertisement or affidavit for getting it corrected.
