Make sure you don't have internet in that area :D (You might accidentally login here are ruin your vacation)
Well that's hard to find because in India even villages have better communication system these days. They all use cell phones since govt could not provide land lines. Internet is definitely all over the place.

One way to increase participation is to involve the Indian student associations of the various universities of the area. They are usually pretty well organized and members are usually willing to support such causes. Also support from ISA's from top notch schools goes a long way to show the legal immigrant population as a highly educated bunch.

Effective date is next fiscal year or the one following it. If you read both the sections it cleary says that.
(Read the word approved and an "or" preceding it).
or approved at the time of the effective date of this section, shall be treated as if such provision remained effective and an approved petition may serve as the basis for issuance of an immigrant visa.
In my opinion this clearly means that if you have an approved I-140 before the effective date you should be ok. All pending I-140 on the effective date which is 15 months away are most likely have to refile. That leads to two scenarios:
1. Approved I-140 with a pending I-485, these petitions will be elegible for immigrant visa whenever one is avialable, this is very clearly mentioned.
2. Approved I-140 without I-485. No clear indication of how these cases will be treaed. They MIGHT have to refile as well.
============
(d) EFFECTIVE DATE.—
32
33 (1) IN GENERAL.—Subject to paragraph (2), the amendments
34 made by this section shall take effect on the first day of the
35 fiscal year subsequent to the fiscal year of enactment, unless
36 such date is less than 270 days after the date of enactment, in
37 which case the amendments shall take effect on the first day of
38 the following fiscal year.
39
40 (2) PENDING AND APPROVED PETITIONS AND APPLICATIONS.—Petitions
41 for an employment-based visa filed for classification under
42 section 203(b)(1), (2), or (3) of the Immigration and Nationality
43 Act (as such provisions existed prior to the enactment of this
44 section) that were filed prior to the date of the introduction of
265
1 the [Insert title of Act] and were pending or approved at the
2 time of the effective date of this section, shall be treated as if
3 such provision remained effective and an approved petition may
4 serve as the basis for issuance of an immigrant visa. Aliens with
5 applications for a labor certification pursuant to section
6 212(a)(5)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act shall
7 preserve the immigrant visa priority date accorded by the date
8 of filing of such labor certification application.
9
The original word is "enactment date", which would be the date the bill is signed into law. The effective date will be oct, 2008.
So people who didn't get their 140 through before the president signs the bill would be screwed?

No This is a height of Cruelity from USCIS. They must have interpreted lot of phone calls and inquiries as "people might not have understood the revision" as they are not from "English Speaking" countries so change it and put "Flip" and "Flop" together as somebody mentioned ahead. But if people might not have understood "Flip" and "Flop" then how can they understand "Flip-Flop"?:)
They posted the revised bulletin in a hurry. They should have done this on July 2nd. The actual july bulletin consists FB dates and other dates.

Until 2003 end most the people have filed 485. It all started when the cases were moved to BEC. Most of the cases were from 2004 and some from 2003/2/1/0.
Our firm had five 2002/2003 LCs cleared in March , after uscis sent out notice to either convert them to RIR processing or abandon it. I guess there are many old cases to be still applied for 485.

nothing if people leave!! and similarly it gains a little bit if people stay and continue.
which raises a good point for the author (who started the thread) ... earlier it was a unwritten rule that a person gets GC in max 5 years ..but as times changed immigration rule did not change and hence we have long wait lines nowadays ..
how much US loses ..a study will have to be done ..but I remember reading a story about a UN study ..which said immigration helps all countries as long as it is controlled (study may have included little bit of uncontrolled too) ..so it said even India gains from illegal bangladeshi's ..because they do lot of work which many Indians don't do. and ofcourse in today's world background check is a must.
how it helps ..most of us know ..immigrant stays at his job for a long time..to keep the status ..whereas natives keep hopping. hence lot of expense in training (this applies from a restaurant to a hi fi IT company).
the point is at what point the person in line will break (and go elsewhere) ..maybe a study has to be done (no one would do it though).
some reports did say that lot of Indians and Chinese went back to their countries (not necessarily for immi ..but I won't be surprised if USCIS was a key factor ..some of my friends (atleast 10 -15) left and now work from India ...and are training more people out there, pay taxes there, all services (from grocery to tourism taxes, education etc etc etc there) ...
The illegal immigrants working in the Swift meat packing plant when ICE raided cost Swift almost $100k per individual, if I recall. Consider what skilled immigrants cost the economy. I've worked in my company for four years now. They could replace me, but there is a lot of knowledge lost if I walk or have to leave.
For people to claim that employees can be replaced with little or no cost, especially skilled employees, they betray their lack of knowledge of economics.

You make it sound like they care about you and are doing this slowly to get everybody on board, sorry to burst the bubble but chances are they were able to apply the right pressure at the right places and get this passed.
Fashion models and Sport personnel and EB-5 folks are few in numbers and will go unnoticed by their constituents. Other EB categories are comparatively huge. So I suppose that congress is treading carefully. If the bills does not go though the subcommittee and full ones, opponents will debate that the bill was sneaked in or piggy backed or pushed through. Hopefully something will emerge before the presidential elections. Lets not loose hope and try our best. Anything after the elections will be bound to be bogged down by CIR...

can we put up forum threads here for state chapters or some kind of direct link or page for each individual state chapter
Doing state chapters through list servs is just not working out.
Most people here just want to discuss but when it comes to action - you will notice that they would not even give out their proper name to IV while registering - so mobilizing is not as easy as discussing it here.
Discussion forums are good because ideas emerge here - ideas are needed for execution and discussing pressing issues must lead us towards a path to execution.
The question is - can all those who do that talk actually walk the talk?

Receipting people are not the ones adjudicating the cases. They are different people. So there is no used stopping the receipting.
If this news is true, then we can see "wild" approvals before the end of September. Some people with complete cases may overtake others.
Hi,
It's already happened. Go to and look through the posts there. One guys wife has 485 approval, and he hasn't had even an LUD on his application and he is PRIMARY!

My Loan is not Jumbo loan, its under 400K
I don't have 20% down. But I was speaking to the Loan officer, he was telling, it doesn't matter if you put more down or not, 3yr forward continuous visa is req. I never heard this earlier.
Jumbo loans are not getting approved for EAD status. Banks are rejecting Jumbo loans (> 417K) if your immigration status is EAD or AOS. I don't have any idea about normal loans (< 417K). But banks are giving Jumbo loans if the status is H-1B.
But noone is rejecting loan, if your down payment is 20% of the value of the home.

Pappu, then why no to plan for another letter campaign, if that is what making things work a little bit.
It will work only if we can have 10s of thousands of letters.
If admin fixes had so many letters we would have been in a better spot today. With only 5 thousand or something letters and many of them anonymous, we cannot have our hopes very high.
Unless people suffering take the initiative, our initiatives will have a hard time getting results. IV is every member here (and not just core members or chapter leaders) and if members feel the heat of retrogression, they need to take the initiative and get active.
Hope this bulletin will help people focus on action items.
