Yes, you are right....he did indeed use "passive resisitance" in South Africa. We all learned about it in school and I can remember the idea making a HUGE impact on me as a kid.
So I guess it does more than "work in a foreign land"....it can change individual's worldviews!

Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is "K Street" and what is its relevance?
K Street in Washington DC is where the big lobbying firms have their headquarters and is sometimes refered to as the fourth branch of government.

How are you sure that the "sneaking in" of our provisions with the 'undocument workers' provisions is going to alleviate our plight?.
Note that the staff to support this overhaul is not going to increase overnight. Consider this - 100 people (just a 'supposition' - this is not a hard number) are working on 500,000 applications today; With the passage of provisions for 'undocumented workers', the same staff of 100 is going to work on 11 million 500,000 applications, atleast for the next 1-2 years. Do you understand the mess that this will create? It will be a similar mess as the 'Labor backlog center', where the applications of 2003 are still waiting for their certifications.
Although I agree that we should work towards supporting the current provisions already in the bill, I still feel that issues such as 'I-485 application without PD current' and 'removal of hard country quota' are important, in order to ensure short-term reliefs. These provisions may not help your specific case, however it may help 1000s of other cases.
Just my opinion from the limited knowledge that I have of, how UCSIS operates!!!
Good luck:)

I understand that you guys have done a lot with limited resources, but trying to isolate yourself from the issue of illegal immigrants issue is not going to help us either. We need to use the momentum of illegal issue to sneak in our provisions (which we already have with the advance degree provision, exception of spouses from cap,capture of unused visa numbers).
I think you are wrong in stating that I do not grasp the issue that AILA is only interested in illegal immigration issue and not in EB3 retrogression. I know that more than you can imagine, which is why I have been urging the forum to stop asking every one to fax the senators with requests to remove hard limits by country or even concurrent filing of I145 when visa numbers are not current. I read on post by a junior member where that person DID GET A CALL BACK FROM ONE OF THE SENETORS OFFICE AND THAT GUY COULD NOT ARTICULATE THE ISSUE WHEN THE SENETOR ASKED HIM IF THE ISSUE WE ABOUT INCREASING H1-B’S.
Exactly what happens when thousands of people contact senators instead of one fax from one organization with one point of contact just so that if some one actually calls back from the senator’s office we at least have some one who could explain the situation in a way that makes sense?
Also, I know how difficult it could be to get an amendment in just as well as you and I also know the fact that the real interest is in solving the illegal immigrant’s issue. The reason for that is the issue that the U.S has is with ILLIGAL IMMIGRATION. The EB retrogression is really our problem, not some thing that is going to raise alarms in the senate. Which is why any amount of hue and cry is not going to change the situation? We should be glad that the advance degree provision, recapture of unused visa numbers and exemption of spouses from cap will make way for a few people and in the process clear up the backlog in EB3 category. We need to back this unanimously instead of trying to introduce new amendments in the last minute. No offence but

All arguments are very sensible. No doubt about it. am working on an EAD and they did not incur any legal cost. However, I get frustrated thinking why they charge $180 per hour to the client.... even when the cost to company for me is about $110K per annum or around $60 per hour. I do not know whether I am worth $180 per hour or not....but probably more than $60/hr since they can charge $180 / hr
We really need to analyze this deeply if we want to come up with a strategy....
Thanks for the 3 red dots which I recieved....

Dude I think you are thinking too much of it. USCIS is an organization that goes by a process. If they have a pending application, they have to process it. they decided in the summer of 2007 that they will hire additional contractors and process all the pending applications so that they reach their goal of 4 months processing times of 485.
Why will they waste their resources on your $325 dollars again dude? Is the amount that high that they will reopen the case at the time of finally alloting a visa number, and spend the money/resources on reviewing the case again?
Whatever be the PD, USCIS is all set for a month processing time of 485 by Sept 2009. All cases filed before Jun of this year should have been either pre-adjudicated or denied by that date.
I don't want to drastically oppose anybody's view or perceptions... But still I don't think that USCIS is an organization which goes with all the so called process models and they will stick with processing of the cases with priority basis - Yes, including all their country, category, etc quota fandas...
Otherwise we would not have seen people who are all with 2006 PD getting approvals where those who have better priority dates (with out tied up with any name check or other hassles) in the same cateogory and country are still waiting... Who knows whether they have some other agenda by getting 1000's of $325 from each applicant upfront, even they very well know that they would not able to do anything for those people in the near future? So why do they worry to take a few contractors for the time being and say bye bye after some time to them. By those uneducated contractors we have suffered a lot of back and forth mailing of the applications during 2007 July, there by making good business for Fedex and USPS. Anyways by that most of us got EAD... Thanks to such an act by the so called organization run by process model :D
Needless to say the small efforts as preadjudication or so will hopefully shed some light for our endless wait. I appreciate it... Better late than never. Atleast if they stop kicking the processing dates back and forth, just what we have seen in the last couple of months and offcourse in the past also, I would say "God Bless USCIS" for not making us fools again and agian.
my 2 cents...

A question to the people who used AC21 and on EAD:
I am on EAD and changed job (six months after the I-485 is submitted). The new employer - a well know tech company - insisted on sending the AC21 letter to USCIS, and I sent it. After sending the letters there were LUD's on I485 applications for me and wife and I assumed the letter reached the files. There was no activity after wards. Recently my wife went out of country and while coming back she went thru the AP parol process. The immigration officer asked her a few questions, one of them is where I am working. She mentioned my current company which made the officer to have a question mark on his face (the file he is looking at has my previous employer name). We were expecting this to happen and my wife quickly explained to him that my application was sponsored by so-and-so company (my previous employer) but later I changed jobs as per AC21. She even had a copy of AC21 rules with her. There was no problem but she was kept in waiting for another 30+ minutes until the immigration officer talked to 2 other officers. She got the impression that most of immigration people there are not really aware of AC21 and this made us think this could be a potential issue for those who used AC21.
Did anyone had any issues like this. We were lucky not having too much of a hassle but was thinking on how to handle these port of entry interviews if someone used AC21.
Thanks to IV for taking this up.
First of all, the letter is not a requirement when you switch jobs. It is a matter of personal preference on whether you want to send the letter. So there may not be any record in your file about the change.
I have travelled using AP. I was not specifically asked this question.
Now, all Immigration officers may not be aware of the AC21 law. It may be good to mention the law and wait for them to verify. From your example, looks like it is good for all the family members to know the AC21 law and maybe carry a document stating the law.
Its a good heads-up for some of us who have switched jobs to carry AC21 document.

But it would be disastrous in terms of PR if even this fails. But like you, I would not hold my breath for this but am cautiously optimistic at the same time.
Also, please realize that any changes to the bill will meet absolute resistance from both sides. We will have to wait and see how many amendments are they planning on allowing.....
Ragz to be perfectly honest i know this bill is VERRRRY important to us, but this bill carries Far more problems than relief. Right now there are So many "Ifs" and "Ands" that somehow i dont see it passing or atleast not anytime soon, forget abt passing by memorial day.
If it actually DOES pass by memorial day, that day actually WILL be Memorial for us legal immigrants :) But one another note. Thanks for posting the link. I know a lot of us are writing the same thing, but that should not deter people from posting info like this on the forum.

I totally agree..
If to get EAD and AP going to take more then year then what is advantage of VB becoming current?
When the EAD and AP dates processing dates are backlogged, there isn't much advantage to early filing.
