The recent AILA prediction on the cutoff dates for EB3 for the month of october, how accurate can they be considering the following.
1. Dates until May 08 2001 were current for a long time until 2007 June. So most of the guys with that priority dates have already applied for AOS. Most of them might already gotten their GC. There may be a very few stuck in the process but that number should be very less.
2. For the month of June 2007 they moved the dates ahead by more than 2 years with whatever information they have.
3. Now by October 2007 there might be a few more cases, with PD before 2001 May 08, might get added but this number should be very less(I think).
Considering these factors how can there be a huge demand for visa nos with PDs before May 08 2001?
May be I am missing something really big here. My guess (wild) would be it would move ahead by atleast a year from Pre June 2001 VB dates when they open up in October 2008. Anyway I don't have as much info (or exp) as AILA and I could be grossly wrong.
This is no advice or suggestion, but purely my opinion.

There is no such law that specifies any duration one has to be employed by GC (or AC-21) employer. Period.

That is exactly I was trying to tell people here. Each lawyer can interpret law and put on his website. But the fact is we have not seen a single case of citizenship denial or RFE where someone had changed the job immediately after getting a job. If there was any such case, send it across for us to see.

This is relevant because some of us have EAD which is legal authorization to work (restricted though) or spouses have EADs (unrestricted). Placing barriers like US citizens only or Greencard holders only is discriminatory.

I was born and lived in Canada for 35 yars - I know what I am talking about.
First of all - people on umemployment insurance in Canada are counted in the unemployment rate - where ever you got your information from is wrong.
Second - yes there is racism, I am very sad to say, but I can assure you, that "for the most part", it pales in comparison to any spot in the USA.
Third - Health Care is not "Free" - you pay higher taxes there, and the government puts it back into the people (vs military in USA). You will not go bankrupt and loose your house if you (or your kids) get sick.
Fourth - You can live a great comfortable life in Canada. As someone else said, it ranks between 1 & 3 usually every year when the US rates countries based on healthcare, education, standard of living, ...
Fifth - My brother in law is a Neurologist from Mexico (married my sister), yes he worked for less than Canadian Dr.'s pay rate - BUT, his qualifications where not up to Canadian standards. He worked hard for many years to pass Canadian standard tests. Unfortunaely (or fortunately), OVERALL, Canadian standards are much higher than anything in the USA. We do not have half baked "colleges" where people who can not find their way out of a paper bag graduate from. You must pass these standards/tests/etc...
Sixth - the overall education level in Canada is much higher than in the USA. We do not have the "ghettos" as in the USA. High school graduation is the norm, not the exception.
Seventh - the Canadian educaitonal system ranked 7th in the world last year. The USA ranked 28th. Again, the standards and expectations are higher up there. http://www.pisa.gc.ca/81-590-xie2004001.pdf#search='PISA%20results'
OK - why am I going through US immigration if I love my home - W E A T H E R. I hate the cold - I now live in the LA area. Also, I belive if you have the correct skills, you can live a higher standard of living in the USA, if you measure in terms of materialistic goods only, and are imployed with benefits to ensure you are taken care of if you get sick.
Conclusion - Canada is a beautiful country. I would encourage all highly educated, good people from anywhere in the world to move there.
PS - be very careful of "false" info. E.G. - George W. Bush talked about the Canadian pharmacies supplying drugs to Americans. At one point he said that "we don't know how safe" the drugs are. Then, a few months later when flu shots were in short supply, he said " we'll get it from Canada".
Canada has the stupidest immigration policy from the standpoint of policy maker if you ask me.
Dont get me wrong. It works great for us. For the immigrant. You get greencard on an independent petition(self-petition) and adjudicated based on points. And there is no numerical cap.
Guess what? It works great for everyone in the world, everyone has flocked there and caused and over supply of labor and 9% or higher unemployment. The way they count unemployment is also very Enron-like. They dont count people receiving unemployment benefits as unemployed. And then Jim Volpe will post on website "Canada has unemployment rate of 5-6%".
Anyways, if you want to immigrate to a country, you want to go where there is low unemployment. That is the biggest criteria for choice. USA's system HAS HUGE FLAWS. The employer petition-system creates a breeding ground for exploitation and the numerical cap is too low that results in delays that are unbearable. And yes, the DOL has come really close to making people commit suicide because of labor backlogs. But then, only the employer petition system can actually give greencards to THOSE WHO CAN SURVIVE and get jobs in the economy and not give greencards just because they scored points.
I know I will receive a lot of flak as I have before, and I wish there was points based system here in USA too with self-petition option like Canada, but trust me, if that happens, then this country will be full of people with greatest points,(obtained thru fake degrees and Ph.Ds from the whole world) and really really make the nightmares of NumbersUSA and FAIR become true, and it wont be worth living.
US systems needs major rework and increase in quota and increase in efficiency at USCIS and DOL. But getting rid of employer petition is going to make USA like Canada where Ph.Ds and doctors drive cabs and work in restaurants, but every one of those doctors and engineers would have greencard in 1 year.

It seems people who revoked AC21 during pre-GC stage, can continue to change employers in the post-GC phase. The confusion is for the people who stayed with their employers throughout the GC process. Please correct me if I am wrong.

You should be ok. The purpose of COBRA is to have a continued coverage. usually insurance is month to month, so the coverage nessasarly doesn't end the day you quit. All COBRA does is allow you to pay the next months entire premium and keep the existing coverage.
I tried using COBRA last year and in my case the gap was 3 months and my monthly COBRA payments were about $900/month, since I did not have any ongoing medical conditions or foresee any like pregnancy etc, I went for short term private insurance to fill the gap.
Pardon my ignorance Gurus.
But Hypothetical....what would be the scenario, if,
- I leave the job-A on 1st of the month.
- join new job-B on 2nd of the month (very next day) but new employer wants me to complete 30 days before providing medical insurance
- my job-A insurance company sends me COBRA option in two weeks time as required by law
- Prior to I fill and send out the COBRA docs (roughly 2 - 3 weeks), I have to make some urgent visit to doctor...say in 1st week (say, on 4th of the month)
- will my job-A company will deny this claim as they only received my COBRA paperwork by 18th of the month whereas I went to doctor on 4th????

SpringFlower: Can u share which state/city your FP is scheduled in? I think people in crowded places like Bay area, CA get FPs later than less crowded areas.
We got FP notices for me & my wife on 01-25-08. Finger printing date is Feb 6th, 2008. Same date, same time for both of us. Just perfect!
We filed our I-485 application/EAD/AP on July 6th, 2007.
Ours is a transferred case (NSS-CSC-NSC).
Did not open any service request.
Looks like they started processing transferred cases.
People who have been waiting should be getting their FP notices now.

I'm also suffering like you for years but doing a RE-FILE just for managing bad odds is not reasonable. If they reject your application - You should be able to resend it from FEDEX/USPS signature and receipt Notice even after Aug 17th.
I'm not a lawyer and i've nothing against Rajaiv Khanna but on a general i'm advising you that " Any lawyer wants their clients case get complicated and convoluted". By doing this you/we are just complicating our case and offering "Money making" potential to already Rich , Wealthy ,Cut throat Lawyers.
Don't you agree ?
Folks,
I am going to share with you what I have done regarding refilling and why I have done that.
Call me a paranoid or something else but the fact of the matter is that time period between July 2nd and Aug 17th is a golden opportunity that may not present itself for several years now.
Though the chances of my application getting rejected due to mail room error is less but in the game of probability everyone of us stand equal chances of getting hit by a thunder bolt.
Just a side note - They install lightning rod on buildings to protect from lightening even though chances are 1 in 700,000. Well, my odds are much worse than that. Hence, I need to protect myself.
Regarding filling multiple 485 applications, Rajeev Khanna has categorically stated in one of his meetings that he is doing it. And we all know he is a person of good reputation.
There are two scenarios I can think about:
a) My July 2nd is accepted: In such cases either my later filled application is automatically rejected or they will send me a letter asking me to choose one.
Someone on one of his/her post had mentioned about stop payment idea. He may have a point. Call USCIS and you will find out that only thing they will do is reject your application, which is what you want if your earlier application is already in process.
Somebody also stated just like what they did in H-1B cases on 04/02/07, they may reject both applications, well; H-1B case was different due to lottery system.
b) My July 2nd application is rejected: Well, I just protected myself from a thunder bolt.
Having suffered in Green Card race for so long, my risk taking capacity has greatly been reduced. I am not advising or urging anyone to take any action. I am just sharing what I did.

Hi All,
Sorry to bring this thread back.
See, what IV few members have written. I found them again in user control panel along with RED dots. I stopped caring about RED dots.
But, there are some comments that really hurts.
1. Interpretation issues... 10-23-2008 05:56 PM fuck u
2. Interpretation issues... 10-23-2008 05:39 PM u got a gc?. take this red bastard!
3. Interpretation issues... 10-22-2008 05:21 PM get a life dude. I do not beleive in dots but your font hurts my eyes. I can read.
These are the comments few IV members wrote about my posting while giving a RED dot. Though I stopped caring about RED/Green's
One must behave like a civilized person. We came here with atleast Bachelors Degree. Some of them with Master Degree / PhD's. Majority of us are educated and know how to behave with people.
Do you know , how it hurts some one?. Are they doing in Green Card frustration? or Are they doing it wanted?.
Guys, all those who responded previously to this thread and and backed up fellow IV members, what do you say now?.
Good Bye for ever guys?.
dude, let me clarify even without you asking, I gave no red dots to you for your red font. some else did.
I expressed a dislike for your humongous font and said so openly. This whole system of dotting is flawed but flawed gc process is bigger issue.

amitjoey, Thanks. I have sent a request to my senator yesterday and also mailed them all the copies of the documents. Just hoping that will also help. I was told that my file is already assigned to an IO and you will soon hear from USCIS. "Soon" in USCIS dictionary seems to be 30 to 45 days and thats very scary s that means it will about 130 days. I am just hoping they will approve soon. After approving it seems they are taking additonal 30 days to print the card.
