akred's reasoning is flawed.
no way without getting a law, priority date are going to improve.

Focus on the core issues (if you care), not on extraneous stuff. For petes sake, it is already approved, seems like most of us are only focussed on our own backs or riding on others.
cygent I disagree with you.
this journey for me started 5 years ago, at this stage I'll take whatever piece of information, trend or experience I can get to better understand the process.
lets be honest, USCIS have been less than helpful in providing updates and many lawyers are as lost as we are
so I'll take whatever extraneous stuff I can get, not just to understand my case, but to see the trends with other people too

Thats informative. My receipt is SRC-07-264-XXXXX. The received date is July 2 and notice date is Sept 4. I dont think my application was received on the 264th working day. Even if you consider Sept 4 as the 264th day, that means that there are about 274 working days in a year (Fiscal -Sept 30 or otherwise). That seems too high!
Fiscal year 07, starts for USCIS from Oct 1st 2006 - Add 264 USCIS working days - it should match to Sep 4th

May be it's time to start another contribution drive as some of the members only contribute when there is some action going on in DC; nothing wrong with that of course. I suggest that core team start another contribution drive and hopefully it'll be more successful this time around.

USCIS just went through the laborous task of processing more than 1 million applications for 485, ead, ap combined and also sending out FP notices and guess what, come Feb-march most of us will be ready to reapply for EAD and AP and USCIS has to go through the same process and this is likely to continue for next 4-5 years atleast..All USCIS wil be doing is processing EADs and AP..
Don't you guys think USCIS must be seriuosly thinking of a solution to clear this mess once and for all
Options
1) Give 3 yr ead and AP
2) As a one time thing make priority dates of all july applications only current :) (highly unlikely)
The EAD/AP renewal business is a cash cow for USCIS, and they will not do anything to jeorpardize that.;)
Result - status quo :p

Your concern seems valid.
gnrajagopal, i would call USCIS customer service and talk to them about this.. better to get it confirmed.
I am inclined to believe that you are approved.. they just haven't updated their system yet or mabybe the system didn't get updated somehow.
Spoke to a friend of mine. He said he recieved his 140 approval but till this date the system shows that the case is pending. I will probably call uscis tomorrow.
Does anybody know the easiest way to reach a customer service rep at NSC?

Hey mdipi, in the rules stated by Dan...
Theme: Grunge Image
Programs: Photoshop (imported images can be used)
Size: 200 x 700
Time: November 20th
That is an exact copy and paste, it says imported images can be used. Also, even if it isn't stated, I think it is implied that you can.
Just be sure they aren't copywrited because then you can get in copywrite trouble :(

pappu, is there a separate effort on part of IV towards a legal-immigration based bill, where issues such as visa number capture will be taken up? It has been officially reported within the Ombudsman report that 182,694 have gone unused since 2000.
Nope not possible as of now. Lawsuit is specific to visa bulletin issue.

Searching in Google, the good way | Code Purity (http://blog.code-purity.com/archives/2009/7/24/searching_in_google_the_good/)
There are huge set of techniques by which searching in Google can be done more accurately, and here is a list of them that I frequently use.
1. Whenever we search for more than one keyword (i.e. computer programming, here we use 2 key word. a) computer b) programming) at a time Google will handle this keyword using a method called Boolean Default. Google's Boolean default is AND; that means if we enter query words without modifiers, Google will search for all of them. If we search for:
computer programming
Google will search for all the words. If we want to specify that either word is acceptable, we can put an OR between each item:
computer OR programming
If we want to exclude a query item from search results, use a -.(minus sign or dash:
computer -programming
Note that there is no space after the (-) sign.
2. To search for a phrase use "" surrounding the phrase. like:
"Some Interesting Google Search Technique"
3. Period (.) and Asterisk (*) can also be used as traditionally used.
4. To search anything from a specific site use site:site_name.
google site:share-facts.blogspot.com
This will search for the term google only in the specified site. Note that there is no space after the (:) sign.
Eg: ead site:immigrationvoice.org
5. To restrict search to title of web pages we can use intitle:search_keyword
intitle:google
6. Use inurl:search_keyword to restrict search to the URLs of web pages.
inurl:google
7. To search in body text use intext:search_keyword
intext:html
8. Searches for text in a page's link anchors
inanchor:"google desktop"
9. To search for a specific filetype use filetype:desired_file_type
bangladesh filetype : pdf
10. To search a copy of the page that Google indexed even if that site/page is no longer available at its original URL or has since changed its content completely. This is particularly useful for site/pages that change often.

I am not getting any appointment in June with any doctor within 60 miles from my place. So I took an appointment with a doc 70+ miles away for end of june. The only problem is I need to go twice 70 miles one way. The clinic suggested I do the blood work in nearby county clinic, but the county clinic wants 7-10 days to get results of blood work. I asked them for HIV and Sephallius test to be done. I already got TB Skin test(tested negative) done at county clinic.
Can someone please tell what all blood tests need to be done, so I can check if any other doctor can do the blood work and I can save one 70 mile trip . Thanks.

There are two pointless threads on this site, one is titled "The yanks are coming" and another as "US political system is broken". They both contain long rants of a single user. I seriously doubt if anybody ever reads them, as is evident from the absence of any other user's reply to these threads. Why don't we just remove them, or block them from showing up on the main page. At least it will free up space for more useful threads.
Those are excellent threads buddy. If you look at the content the poster seems to spend significant time to gather the facts and the presentation is extremely detailed. Somebody mentioned the lighten up thread its also great, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. I agree that some information may not be strictly immigration related its ok. This is my personal opinion.

Hi All,
Please help me by answering the following questions and also bear with me if those are basic questions. Thanks a lot for the help in advance.
1. My employer asked me to wait few months for at least partial job market recovery and advised its better to start the labor filing preparation sometime in Nov 2009/Dec 2009. There is a positive news on the job market recovery. Is it a good time to apply for PERM Labor now? FYI, my second H1B expires 09/30/2011.
2. Is it possible to file multiple PERM Labor Certifications through two different employers at the same time? If yes, could I choose the employer I would like to stay, if both gets approved approximately at the same time?
3. How long I can continue with future employment in the GC process?
4. If the Labor get audited, is it possible to apply for H1B extension after 6th year?
5. Is it possible to port I-140 & procedure involved to port with / without the consent of current employer.
All the best!!!
