I know the feeling of the people who got stuck in BEC.
My Current LC PD is Jun 04 - EB2, before that I had two LC's PD of Jun 2001 and Sep 02 of EB2, Since I switched my employer I was unable to use those LC's even though I was promised by both Ex - Employers ( But it turns out to $$$$$ Demand from the Ex).
Since I made the decisions to switch employers, I don't have any regrets. And am I hoping for 3rd time luck now.
Rather than complaining about the systems, I think we have to focus on how
1) To get back the Unused Visa # from year 2000 (Almost 180K #'s)
2) To increase in yearly Visa # from 140 K to 280K or even more
3) To make USCIS to not to count the dependents towards the VISA #'s
The current USCIS policy counts all the dependents towards the available VISA #'s (I believe the formula is 2.5 per primary Applicant)
That means the country quota of 7 % (9800/2.5 = 3920) available to any one country (All the categories). If this is true, I really don't know when we can the see the light.
Of course IV is focused on this issues, I am basically reiterating it again. This effort needs humongous resources.
So please contribute $$$, your efforts and time.
Positive thinking will help to achieve the Goal

Thanks for the update! How about having two cases; a second LC under EB2. In that case can both prevail together (and EB2 and EB3)?

I am not sure how far it is true, but this is the content of the email I got from my attorney when I pressed him to file at the earlierst.
"As soon as we have these forms back, all of the evidence for filing remaining from you, and I review the completed filing, we will file it. We appreciate your interest in filing on the first day the filing allows. We will endeavor to do that. I should point out that the current bulletin allows for filings throughout July. It is possible that the filings could be discontinued later in July. We are in touch with officials in Washington about this issue and will file your application in a timely fashion for obtaining the benefit when the filing is properly prepared."
Please don't put any sensational heading on your post if you don't know what you are saying.
This has been discussed a lot here and is nothing new. There is always a possibility that USCIS can issue a mid-month VB and discontinue taking 485. It has not happened before, but is certainly possible.
If you thought, the dates will be current from here on to perpetuity...I have no words for you..

Coming to DC will be a memory most of us will cherish... and for a really long time...
Whether it was working late or eating dinner at 3 am or running to meetings, it was an enriching experience for all IV members. And it makes us proud that we stood up & made our presence felt & voices heard...
We all knew each other by IV handles... but meeting in DC put names & faces to those handles...
Meeting each & everyone was amazing and even more satisfying was that people came from different states & with families & kids...
A li'l disappointed with the locals who didn't turn up though.... and more so with those who walked on the other side of the road from all of us....

It is mindblowing to see insensitive posts with regard to folks stuck at BEC.
IV core has stated repeatedly that the BEC issue is on its agenda. Thanks.
To those members who say that "life isn't fair so get over it": We are here at IV not to get used to unfairness, but to do something about it. I was stuck at BEC for many years. It is the most unpredictable of all GC stages; and those who didn't have to go through the BEC mess should consider themselves lucky. Cases can drag on for years; cases get closed arbitrarily; and there is hardly any way to communicate with the BECs. Try to understand the difficulties of those stuck at BECs instead of trying to make fun of them.

Fellow IV'ers,
We have done a good job since we started the 'Add ONE Member Campaign'.
In two days we were able to add 42 members. Welcome our most recent member, 'Gudavallign'!
But we can do a hell lot better.
The goal is for each of us to add ONE member by December 31st. Just ONE member. Cant we do that? I look around, and almost all my friends/family are stuck in this mess. All it takes is to talk to them and explain the great job IV is doing. I am sure you all know someone who is going through GC pain. I was easily able to join two members. All it took was 10 minutes each. I am confident of joining at least two more before the 31st.
Please dig your contacts, call/email them and explain this great effort. I request everyone who reads this post, to stop and call/email one friend (and make them a member) as an immediate priority, before even going on and reading the next post or thread on this forum.
If you are thinking it is a difficult thing to call, please use the 'Invite a Member' feature on this website. But please make the call/email NOW!
Everyone, please help add ONE member by December 31st.
Together we can make this campaign a success!
Thank you.

Has anybody received something similar? Seems canned and asking to wait for another 6 months holy cow?What is the next step Info Pass?
I would suggest taking an infopass appointment and also contact your congressman. No guarantees but those are two options so why not try both.

It was introduced by Kennedy to amend an unfriendly amendment from Jeff Sessions, but its only registered on Thomas. It has not passed and its not a part of the bill that passed the Senate today. It was not even debated.
This is what happened:
Kennedy submitted SA 180(about immigration) in response to amendment SA 143(text unavailable) introduced by Jeff Sessions. Its a parliamentary spat (tit for tat) and eventually both were left untouched. So it can be on thomas, but it has not passed.
Thanks for being alert, but please be careful about such things. Not everything that is on Thomas becomes law or is even debated.

In addition to or instead of?? Ithink the current clause should be replaced with the one you suggested.
Just a suggestion:
It may be more appealing to tie it with "five years of filing taxes as a "resident alien" including contribution to medicare ans SS taxes".
In other words, any permanent legal resient (GC holder) who has filed taxes as a "resident alien" for five years while working in US and contributed to medicare and SS taxes should be eligible for citizenship filing.
This should be added in addition to the current criteria of "five years of continuous stay after getting GC".
What do you think?

Hi folks, just as predicted, my email thread to select contacts resulted in one outright racist response. i dont want this group to get distracted or distressed if you too get such responses. take a look at the original note below and my response. remain brave. remain strong. this is a LEGAL immigration process in the US economic interest too.
hopefully people will begin to realize that anti-legal-immigration is just a facade for deep rooted racism.
Best.
A SELF AVOWED RACIST RESPONSE from A PERSONAL CONTACT
I have to let you know that not only will I not support this bill, but I am vehemently against the legal immigration of workers that are originally brought here to usurp positions that would have otherwise been held by skilled Americans. I agree that this is a racist and exclusionary position, but I also know many people who can no longer get work at the level they deserve due to the displacement they have experienced as a result of this foreign worker influx.
Please remove me from any future posts regarding this or related issues.
MY RESPONSE
i know how the native americans must have felt when the pilgrims landed... oh that darned foreign influx.
i will not dignify your self avowed racism with the erudition of economics, capitalism, innovation, globalization, human rights or the rich history of the united states as a melting pot of cultures ... all of which are underpinning factors that are in the long term US economic interests in high skilled LEGAL immigration. of course, these tend to be conveniently ignored on the altar of superficial sentiment, myopic protectionism and deep-rooted xenophobia.
it would be best that we not be on each others' personal contacts or have any future interaction at all.

The situation is the same. In my case and of course in most of others too, what he/she said is correct. Waiting for Eb3 to cross 2001 has become a difficult thing. If I started an EB2 app rather than hoping positively, I would have finished my wait for GC.
Ever since retrogression started the dates have not crossed 2001. 245i or not, the backlog is a fact. Sad part, when there is action items from IV, trying to talk to my state members, I have realized and been told that IV does not cater to EB3 anymore. It is disheartening how much ever I try to explain, occasional members look at IV threads like EB2-EB3 predictions and say there is no hope for EB3 and also IV has no answer to it.
I tried my part...too bad I was not able to participate in the IV advocacy day due to family emergency. anyway, let us hope IV's persistence yields us the results. My heart goes for a lot of EB3s who may automatically qualify for EB2 just due to their experience.
Best of luck to all.
Kartikiran, I suggest that you post a few questions to the people who attended the DC event - Ask them if any of the staff members they met with asked them about EB2 or EB3. Ask them if these words were even mentioned.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum16-iv-agenda-and-legislative-updates/1598012-live-updates-advocacy-day-event.html
These are people who actually took action to do something positive instead of just talking. I wish you were able to participate in the event - you would have known the facts instead of half truths.... Hope whatever the emergency was taken care of - maybe you can participate in the next event yourself......
By the way, who in the IV told you that "they have no answer for it" ?
