Free riders if you are reading this and I know you are, please and please come out of your cheap mentality and donate. You know very well that saving 20$ will not help you build a TajMahal, but donating just 20$ or 50$ will make a huge difference to millions of people INCLUDING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
So don't be ashamed of yourself by not donating and donate generously.
Saxena,
How much you had contributed as of now? Can we ask ?

Agreed that H-1B has a fixed date. But from the employer standpoint, you're their "full-time, permanent" employee on H-1B, right? Because Future GC job could be same job on H-1B, only difference being on H-1B your job has fixed end date (noted by I-94), and GC job has no fixed end date, hence permanent. It does not make that current job on H-1B permanent.
Temp Job and Permannet Job can have same job title and job duties. Just like contract job and full-time job can have same job title and job duties, but one is employee of the company and other one is not.

Folks, when you send/ask about details, it'd help if you could post your details like this (format borrowed from another post):
Here are the details:
Mailed to NSC on May 31st.
Received at NSC on June 1st.
Transferred to TSC (I-140 was Approved from TSC)
Receipt Date - June 01
Notice date - June 08
My 485 was filed with NSC on June 1st. It reached NSC on June 4th. We haven't received any receipts so far. I think NSC is still working on June 1st cases. Maybe I need to wait for one more week atleast

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.

First I like to thank you all those whose support me in this action of trying to eliminate the country and category based spillover usage. I see that there are lot of unrelated comments and discussions going on in this forum, let's not get ourself diverted and please focus on our mission to try to implement the usage of spill over visas based on priority date. There may be some unrelated comments still coming in, also some may discourage our actions, let's please ignore those, instead of responding (which just feeds them to write more).
I like to know who all have already contacted their local Congressman/woman for this issue. so let's take a poll by adding your IV id to the following list,

Your lawyer is absolutely wrong. All applications received on or before 17th Aug.2007 must be received by USCIS, even if they can't open the the packets on or before 17th Aug.2007.

Hi IK,
Thanks for the clarification, It was along expected lines. I guess my lawyer was trying to get me to send the application ASAP.

A suggestion about the contents of these emails/letters:
Why do we insist on proposing the solution to our problems? One person wants to remove country limits, another wants 5 year EADs, yet another wants to file 485 regardless of priority dates.
I see 2 problems with this:
1- The external world doesn't care or understand. Do you think the average CNN viewer understands what retrogression or priority dates are? For that matter does anyone in the White House?
2- This divides us by EB category, country, pre/post July '07, EB3 to EB2 porter etc.
In your letters please focus on the problem. If invited to the table we can propose solutions, but now is the time to highlight the problems and the potential impact it has on the US economy, our families, and communities.
Examples:
Impact on US economy:
- I have significant buying power, however I am unable to make any substantial longer term financial decisions due to immigration uncertainties. I may be asked to leave the country on a moment's notice. If there was some stability, I may be looking to invest in a home or a new business
Impact on our families:
- My spouse cannot work. She is qualified and capable. Yet due to the vagaries of the immigration system, she cannot pursue full time employment without significant additional paperwork
Impact on the communities:
- Most of us hold strong political and social views. The current system makes it untenable and in some cases illegal (like donating to political parties) to participate in the democratic process. In the grand machine that is the American democratic system, we are probably the only group of people that are taxed and yet have no representation whatsoever.
Maybe these points are not strong enough. But if they are not, then it is not worth anyone's time to pay any attention. Find the legal immigrant population's "we do the jobs Americans will not do" slogan!

Many opinions have been expressed here. It is very tough to read through a few stories, coz each one of those must have suffered through this whole process..We have to feel proud of ourselves that we have withstood this whole process and are hoping for a bright day ...one day...some day soon.
Due to the new overload/frontlog of applications filed, at least, if the duration for EAD and AP can be increased from its 1 year expiration to 3 years, it will bring in some sort of security and relief. Just like, one can extend H-1B for 3 years, if your I-140 is approved, there should be a policy to get an EAD and AP for 3 years if you have applied for 485 and have been waiting for more than an year or say, 6 months.
We do not really know, if a major overhaul is in the near future, but such changes can help in providing interim relief.
What do you say, friends ?
