chintu25,
I did not ask you to explain any thing to me. You needed to make a good argument on why this idea can channelize negative energy into positive and what are the risks involved. What can any one infer when you end your post with "Now lets play"? You might not have intended what it meant but it can mean different things to different people and I guess you would agree that there are people who think as I do about day trading. Please do not guess my knowledge of day trading and what it is limited to. Your initial post does not underscore the risks significantly. IMHO, Day trading fits a specific set of people who can not only handle the risk but also can handle the stress. Your feelings might be different. How ever, some one else pointed out the research done on day trading.
While I appreciate your noble intention to channelize the negative energy, the potential risk of getting a double whammy (immigration + stocks) needed to be underscored and I think did that. I will leave it there and do not want to take this discussion further on my opinions about day trading and it's nitty gritty.

Fellows,
We all had a sigh of relief when we saw the new labor certification process (Perm) and were promised that it will be much faster and smooth. Thankfully they have kept their promise, for the most part, except for the cases that get audited.
The cases that are 'randomly audited' have been pending for months and months, some cases () have been pending for over an year and there have been no response from DoL what so ever. I understand that a year does not sound bad especially to those folks who had their labor approved through the old process but these days the labor is getting approved within 50-60 days (average). It appears that the DOL (Atlanta Processing Center at least) does not bother to look at the documents once the audit has been replied to.
Although I understand that not everyone uses and some audit replies may have been replied sooner and were never reported to but you can get the idea just by a sample of the cases that were audited, and see that they have being neglected, ignored or appears that they are no longer considered for further processing. I have seen instances where the lawyers have retreated the application in the audit and filed a new application (a gamble) hoping that it does not get audit this time around. But not sure how that turned out.
If you visit the Atlanta Perm section on you will see the people's misery I mention here. In fact, I am sure that there are number of IV members who are going through this aggravating process but are silent becuase they know that can not do anything. Even lawyers have shown the sign of disappointment to this hopeless condition.
So I ask you, the IV Senior Members, to help us and suggest something that (we) can be done to bring this to the attention of some sort of authority that would help trigger the review of Audit responses.
Thank you!

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Gupta and thanks for sharing the details.
Just curious, did u got any emails ??
Hi guys, Just wanted to post an update here. Me and My wife got our GC's in mail today. Our PD was May 19th 2006. Interestingly there is no update on my case online. I was very anxious and refreshing the case status page every few mins for the past few days but to my surprise, my case was approved on 5th of May and i have the cards in hand now.
Keep your hopes high and have patience. It could just be that USCIS has stopped updating the online status and started working on our cases(Wishful thinking :))
Good luck to all who are still waiting and congratulations to all who got greened!

Looks like most of the people online are not seeing this thread at all.
May be the Title need to be changed.
"URGENT CONTRIBUTIONS NEEDED. TIME RUNNING OUT. NOW OR NEVER" kind of...
People might be thinking that this thread is to discuss Integrity of Core Group.
Someone from Core group pls Update the Link and see if it works..
My 2 cents.
Sorry I am refering to the email notification, not IV board message. My Yahoo email account just recieved one email from IV when I registered my account.

Just received Card production e-mail for me and wife. Had pretty tough time last few weeks thinking what could have gone wrong as my PD is MAY 15 with everything clear. After waiting a while, 3/4 days ago I had infopass and went to Congressman for help.
Though we are happy but can feel how tough it is to wait and wait....but I assure you all will get it soon, but take action as your intution says as you KNOW YOUR CASE BETTER THAN OTHERS. So take help if you think there is no question of RFE or delay is longer than ususal. Thank you IV and all members. I will contribute, as many of you did after getting it, and stay in touch with forums for anything I can be of assistance.
Thanks and BEST WISHES TO ALL..
Congratulations and thanks for offering to help even after getting your GC.

1) Asked Pdakwala, if his last name meant postman. He said Yes, I am the one who gets receipt notices.
2) GSC999 - what is the announcement that you just made? He said, no announcement - I talk loud.
3) Getting a call from paskal on Monday midnight to tell me that the hotel had ended business with them. I said, I am in China Town with the IL chapter folks - You can join. He said, aman is taking him to some hotel alexandria or such.
4) At the airport on the way back, paskal giving me a lecture on why being scared of wife is good, when all I asked was "why don't u eat a slice of pizza like me before boarding your flight?" He started to piece together things I had emailed in the past few days. Paskal and I happened to have different flights to Chicago and Minneapolis at gates closer to each other. Paskal seemed flustered with a few hours delay.

Good timeline.
Point 4.: USCIS has no need to inform DoS that all visa numbers are used. As DoS is the visa control authority it very well knows the status; in fact is the only one who knows the latest tally. USCIS can only ask DoS "how many remaining" to finish their game!
So is it possible that the following was USCIS' plan all along in a bid to (1) force applicants to pay the higher fees and (2) reduce the number of applications they would receive. So let's try and see where USCIS or DOS acually broke the law. BTW, the following is pure speculation on my part.
1. DOS makes all categories current in the visa bulletin dated June 12.
2. This screws up USCIS's plans. So they have to force the DOS to issue a revision before July 1st.
3. USCIS frantically starts requesting visa numbers. Even for 485s with pending FBI checks.
4. Come July 2nd, USCIS still hasn't used up all the 60,000 or so numbers, but still informs DOS that all visa numbers have been exhausted.
5. DOS publishes a revised visa bulletin dated July 02 where everthing becomes unavailable.
6. USCIS acts on DOS revised visa bulletin and decides to reject all I-485s filed on July 02 and beyond.
7. July 05 onwards, USCIS starts returning the numbers to DOS. This could be for applications that have pending FBI checks.
8. DOS now decides to use some caution before issuing August bulletin. They will probably not make all categories current, but will probably shift them by a few months based on June bulletin.
9. USCIS now gets all new applications with higher fees and a reduced number of applications.
Please add to this sequence of events if you think I missed anything.
IMHO, USCIS broke the law in #4. And DOS broke the law in #5 if it was aware that visa numbers were still being issued as of July 02.
Thanks,
Jayant

From my experience with trying to convince EB applicants to join and contribute to IV, I get the impression that most of them suffer from a 'subsidy mentality' - they hope others' efforts and money will subsidise their GCs, just like their home countries subsidised their education. Sorry, that mentality just wont carry us too far in America, the temple of capitalism. It is up to us to solve our own problems - no one will feel sorry and wave the magic wand for us.
