Dear ****,
I would like to get to your attention the peaceful campaign of Hundreds of legal, highly-skilled workers, who feel disappointed by the recent "flip-flop" enacted by the Department of State (DoS) and the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS), with regards to eliminating the Green-Card processing delays, plan to send flowers to the USCIS Director, Emilio Gonzalez

Any lobbying for immigration is tough at the time of recession. I think you are trying to do advocacy effort. Without getting approval from core IV group it will not be any use as advocacy effort only will not work. Senators will note your concerns and will act only if some bill is introduced. You need lobbying with advocacy effort for changing any law. Lobbyists will lobby only at right time as if they do in wrong time it will backfire.
Senthil, I agree with you for once.
However some people are too bent on doing this campaign that they forget the realities. Maybe they are having a secure jobs and have EADs. So they have nothing to lose. For people on H1B any wrong step will cause government to shut down the entire immigration or punish immigrants. They did it with TARP and now they will do it in every industry if we do not understand. The newspaper headline will be H1B Indians immigrants asking for greencards after taking American jobs. Like it or not, but this is how antis will show us and all Americans and lawmakers who are sympathetic towards us till now will support antis due to bad economy and for the need of Citizens to stick together in bad times. You have also made this issue of Indians and that is a big no no. Indians now getting a bad name and have become notorious and if you highlight 'Indians' then you are in for a failure. So any campaign should be about all immigrants and not just Indians. Indian Immigrants are having a bad reputation in IT circles these days.
Guys do you know that economy is going from recession to depression? I read somewhere that in the last depression they shut down immigration. So let us not do anything that will be hard on H1Bs just because you have a secure EAD cards.

If USCIS continues to under perform, as they have been doing always till now (reason why EB3 ROW has moved substantially), then EB3 India will temporarily move forward this July.
My gut feeling is that it may move to end of 2005, this is to enable DOS utilize as many VISA numbers as possible during the last quarter of the FY before the unused numbers goes down the drain.
This is what Ron Gotcher also has specified.

We are doing this to help everyone. Especially, those whose PD is still current as per September VB, if you act with in next 5-10 days, you have a chance. if you can individually file a law suit when your PD is current.Since my guess is, the lawsuit we are working on in this thread, will take some time to shape up. But this is a Biggie, we want to create a big impact. Meanwhile, folks who are out there waiting since 2001,2002.... you can follow the links that i pasted in my previous message. People have won lawsuit very similar to the one we are talking about. I can even paste some of the I-485 lawsuits filed because of unreasonable and unnecessary delays, when PD is current.

Well, if u have made up ur mind just based on some post(s) (which by the way, may or may not be true and even if true, do u know the minute details around that case like country of origin, was H1 overstayed etc...etc...?), then no matter what I or anybody else suggests, u will still counter by showing that ONE little post. Do a google on AP with canadian landing and u will see many successful cases. So, tally between the successes and failures. I can guarantee u that for atleast every 100 successes u may (or may not) see one problematic case. The general mentality is, well, there was one failure case...so, will I be the next to be caught? U will completely forget about the success cases. Even if its a problematic case, its not like the end of the world for them. They are still given a chance to re-enter USA.If everything goes wrong, then big deal, Canada beckons. Again, its my point of view.
So, my final suggestion to u is...."Its ur call. Do what ur mind says". If I were in ur position, I'd have taken the risk and I have laid out my points of views in my earlier posts. But for u, I'd only say..."Its ur call".
Folks this is personal experience
We during the endless wait for the elusive GC decided to have back up plan. So applied for Canadian PR in March 2003. The Mandatory 52 weeks were in progress when I had to move out of the city from where we used to reside. So I completed the formalities of informing the Immigration dept of canada about the change in address. After 48 weeks we received a letter from the Canadian Immigration to proceed for Medical examinations and finger prints> We completed both the formalities and within 2 months received the request to send out passports for Stamping. In June 2004 we completed the formalities of getting the passport stamped. Meanwhile here in the US we had already received LCA approval and filed 140 and received approval for the same also but we were not hopeful of the GC itself.
In July 2005 we landed in Canada through Detroit. Drove all the way to Toronto. We were keen to complete all the minimum formalities required like setting up a bank account, applying for SIN etc. We stayed a a friends place and completed the formalities next 2-3 days and then drove back to the US.
Immigration status:
My H1 had expired( 6 yrs completed) Feb 2005 so moved on to EAD. During the entry back to US they did not ask any questions. They asked when we entered US etc and general questions about work for which we replied. Questions about AOS were not asked as it was pretty apparent we were in AOS. The IO scanned through the entire passport and even saw the immigration stamp by canadian consulate and did not comment on it. I guess the answer to any potential questions would be that you will let go of the Canadian PR in case you get your US GC. As far as I know there is no statute or directive that IO should cancel the existing US GC process in anyway. The choice of choosing your country of permanent residence is yours I do not know/think if IO has any say in that.( I might be wrong may be we were lucky). Long story short.. We entered back to the US. Subsequently we got our GC cards which were collected by another friend who was visiting Canada and brought them back to the US. This year July is the last window of oppurtunity for us to go back to Canada.
We did spend close to 2500$ for the whole process if I counted right.We filed ourselves. It was a valid back up plan for the position we were in. I have had 2 more colleagues of mine who were in the same situation and applied and got their Canadian PR's in the same way and no issues when entering back to the US. One of them even goes to canada every few months to show he is working out of Canada and goes out on consulting jobs. He is maintaining a virtual phone number in canada for any contacts that gets routed to his US number if somebody calls.
Any call to go this route is purely personal and one person's experience is not a yardstick to say that is the norm.

They almost always take some kind of FPs. What I mean is that there are 3 biometrics codes. Code 3 is the most comprehensive, where they take your photo, signature and all ten fingers FP. Check your notice in the upper right corner, there should be a box that says "Code".
I always used to think (and still think) why they would issue different FP codes to different applicants even though they are all applying for same 485 petition?
Do different codes have different relevance?

Instead send flowers to the MEDIA itself to notify them of how the sweet smell of the flowers reminds you of how sweetly various Government agencies have screwed us.
Better still, send them a Bundle of your SMELLIEST Trash (the media NOT the lawmakers). Let the card read something like, "I smell a STINK at the USCIS/DOS/DHS" or "The Legal immigration policy STINKS!"
Trash zero dollars
Card from Hallmark, two dollars 50 cents.
UPS Fee ten dollars.
Getting the Message Through ---- PRICELESS ;)

Under the circumstances we might like to approach the Hon'ble President by posting a well drafted letter (not more than a page). Let us see what happens. All letters should be posted withing a specific pre-determined time frame (within one week, say from June 1 to June 7) to create an impact. We might like to achieve a target of say 250,000 letters. This cannot go unnoticed.
The law suit option is not bad but probably would need serious consideration. The suit will have more impact if we first send the letter. Atleast then we will have a point in our favour - that we have been driven to wall with no option but to fight legally.
As a starting point can some of us come up with some convincing drafts? We could eventually come up with a good final draft.
Obama was the only person who did make a mention of the problems faced the legal immigrant community during the campaign. We need to highlight this too.
Thanks and regards!

Everyone need not send the same letter. Let everyone send the same message though. That Indian community is being targeted or that Indians are facing unjust immigration policies as compared to citizens of other countries, which is the truth anyway. I see your point, time is of essence. Send as many letters as soon as possible.

My checks got cleared at TSC today.
Previously
My 140 was approved at TSC, sent 485 to Nebraska on June 22, they received on June 25. I called to check status yesterday, the lady said to wait. On asking if case will be transferred to TSC and if TSC will generate receipts, she said she doesn't know, but it may take at least 2-3 weeks to process receipts at Nebraska.
