i just called DOS. He asked for my visa type and passport number. He said "your visa has been issued in Jan. Call the New Delhi consulate and they should let you know if it would come through mail or do you need to go pick it up"
what happens next ?? how long after this stage it takes to get the visa ?? are there any other checks that could be going on ?? ONCE DOS approves are there any other agencies like FBI, KCC doing some other approvals as well ?? if you know what happens next let me know..waiting for posts..
so now i know I am not stuck due to PIMS and DOS cleared and approved my visa in Jan..what else then ??
Usually, that's it. The consulate should now issue the passport. Email/call the consulate or call VFS if you haven't already done so.

1 week after getting approved, I got the card in mail today.
All the work that I put in the last 2 month to get my file picked finally comes to an end here. It's good to see that people are proactively calling USCIS and following up on their cases.
Good luck to all EB2 folks who are current and waiting and to all the EB3 folks, hope you guys become current soon.
Keep the faith...

I don't think there's a difference in time for EB-2, EB-3 or EB-1 labors. Its takes anywhere from 1 week to 2-3 months. My company filed 2 labors simultaneously one for me and one for a collegue. My friend's got approved next day(less than 24 hrs) mine took 70-80 days.
By the way, How long it takes to get EB2 labor these days?

In ac21 law; it doesn't say anything about the scenario if 140 is revoked by employer. It is totally silent to it.
AFAIK:
AC21 is not a law, just a guidance. Assume an immigration case goes to court hearing, the judge would completely ignore AC21 guidelines. Any employment per AC21 will be considered unlawful in this case. The probability of a case going to court is not very common though.
The above is just FYI.. You can google for more info.
AC21 is a law. AC21 Memos issued are guidelines that IOs are supposed to follow. E.g. If one IO issues NOID if I-140 is revoked and another denies I-485 directly then the latter needs to explain why he/she chose to not follow the memo. In any case, there should be consistency across board to follow AC21 regulations.

I believe your answer below was related to this situation:
Consider this:
If someone renews his/her H1B after 6 years based on approved I-140. Assuming that dates are not current, the H1B gets renewed for 3 years.
In this scenario if the pending I-485 gets denied, what happens to the current H1B? Does that also get invalidated as it's renewal was based on a pending I-485 and approved I-140?
Thanks,
-Ski
as per my understanding, as the H1B extension is based on pending 485, your H1 also becomes invalid with immediate effect. This is shocking, I was somehow believing that using H1 is safe, but it is not after initial 6 years are over. On the contrarary, there are reports that EAD stays valid atleast till the appeal period when 485 is denied, and while the MTR is filed. This is reported on some other threads. Can someone confirm this?

I am going to submit an issue with CIS Ombudsman @ DHS | CIS Ombudsman - Case Problems (http://www.dhs.gov/files/programs/editorial_0497.shtm)
I have also asked the attorney to send an email @ Texas Service Introduces Streamline Procedure for I-485s and I-140s
Labor Immigration Law � Texas Service Introduces Streamline Procedure for I-485s and I-140s (http://www.laborimmigration.com/2008/11/texas-service-introduces-streamline-procedure-for-i-485s-and-i-140s/)
Attorney got back to me and said we will have to wait until 1st October, as he opened a SR on 1st September and TSC asked him to wait for 30 days.
At this point, I am running out of options....maybe a letter to the first lady??

I do beg to differ, nice post but low on facts, its more conjecture and assumptions.
PHDs - EB1 dont make the kind of cash you have shown (ask the post docs who are working there asses off), similarly EB 3's are not restricted to the range you are talking about.
Gaming the system is what screwed us, its not just EB3 its every where. The ones who gamed the system already have their GCs. The extent of gaming in EB1 and EB2 was more than EB3 (ask a lawyer, off the record and you will know). Bodyshopping companies send every one as project managers and they apply in EB2. as for experience, lets not get into that, it is very subjective and vague. I could go on and on...but my level of frusturation with USCIS is too high...hoping and praying is also not an option these days.
just call the CHC members
Nice post, containing real facts.

Spot on. i think the anti-immigrants grossly magnify the hue and cry over H1-B abuses. Most americans dont know what H1-B is and nor do they care. The only immigrants they have heard about are the illegal kind. Ordinary americans are mostly indifferent to legal immigration. Politicians care first for their votebanks (present and future) and second for their sources of funding aka corporate lobbies. They are the ones who have the ability to make a difference.
I think many a times we over analyze things. It does not matter what the common people think about legal immigrants. Most people do not care. Even if they do, it does not affect us in any way, because rules are made by politicians not by men in the streets. And most polticians do care about immigrants, but only the illegals ones, because it is their future vote bank. For legals the only hope is companies like Microsoft, with a big fat wallet. Just pray that the economy keeps going at the current pace or else there could more trouble for us.

Now with Atlas America off...What's the best alternative?, I'm running out of time here...
Friends, please suggest. I bought ICICI lombard 3 times previously, never had to use it, so no comments there. Now, I'm thinking of buying something better as I had heard horrible things about ICICI lombard.
Anybody who has had a parent with diabetes and taken insurance? If there were any problems, did the insurance pay the costs? If possible can you also mention what problems came up during the stay.
Thanks.

Finally I am a US citizen after being 10+ years in this country. This is one of my biggest fulfillments and it means everything to me. US is just not home anymore for me, it is my country.
I wish everyone the best and hope they get GC very soon.
Proud to be an indian-american and legal immigrant.
Good Luck!
Congratulations. I think its a positive thing that people still come to IV to contribute and help to fix the broken immigration system even after they get their GC and citizenship.

Thank you for your elaboration.
How do you know that all the unused visas go to EB3 before go to EB2?
That is the way the USCIS is interpreting the laws and actually doing it that way...There are two different caps applied to you....The EB2 cap of wharever numbers available and the country cap of 7% for all of china EB+FB combined together.......It is true that there are more EB2 numbers available...But as the country quota for CHINA/India is over they are flowing to EB3 ROW instead of flowing horizontally to EB2 china....There is a big discussion about how this flow occurs and if it is fair or not...The title of that thread is 'Unused visas' Reading that would be helpful to you...
Even if the immigration reform happens, will it take effect next year or sometime later?
Frankly donot know....Last year when they passed 2611 they had put conditions in it to delay the implementation..They can put delay again...That is possible....
How come my PD can become current immediately once the immigration reform happens?
The total number of visa available would increase with the immigration reform...There would be enough unused so that you would get some...
thanks1

Awesome post logiclife!
On a side note. I would LOVE it if people working here on Visas were NOT referred to as "aliens". It is VERY demeaning to people of other countries.

One quick and dirty one is to...people who want to 'Add to Reputation' of posts...need to buy:)
I can't believe...I got few red dots....for this post. These Red dots that many of our IVers donate so generously need to be purchased in order to give it to anybody next time.
Just kidding, don't take this seriously. Some people found this post 'illogical' :)
Events with food, music and lots of other fun and all the money goes to IV. We need to form workgroups for doing this in every state.
