Hi,
I am in the same situation. I just got the tracking number from my lawyer for the fedex that he had sent on June 30 and he has sent it to Dallas . I live and work in California. I went through the Direct Filing press release and the USCIS link :
http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=eb7b5cdc2c463110VgnVCM1000004718190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=fe529c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD
and now I am confused as to whether my lawyer did the right thing or its ok to send the application to Dallas??
Anyone any thoughts???

Very good catch. South Korea (& Philipines) falls under ROW and got a lot more EB3 visas than India. So if EB3 is born in South Korea, s/he would get GC in three years where as we are rotting for last eight years. The only reason is the country of birth. How unfair and discriminatory! Is this pre-planned?? And hardly any lawmaker is concerned. Hard to believe this is USA.
Country EB1 EB2 EB3
S Korea 1,923 7,125 4,727
Philippines 310 2,057 5,625
UK 3,472 2,043 909
Canada 2,368 3,404 1,207
Mexico 1,457 1,348 4,021
Now the question is why is there no 7% quota for South Korea ?

Flexi,
ur just making what we refer to as a 'h1 transfer'. u donot have to wait till oct to begin ur work at the new employer. anytime after u get ur receipt u can terminate the first job and join the new one.
regarding
- Is traveling to my home country OK while filing the petition or is it better to wait until I come back?
ans: as long as u have NOT terminated ur existing H1 employment, u can travel ( assuming u have a valid visa to reenter the US). it doesnt matter whether u applied for h1 transfer or not, as long as ur current H1 visa is valid and ur maintaining proper H1 status at existing emplyer, u shud not have problems coming back to US on H1. after u come back , depending on whether ur got ur new h1 receipt , u can terminate first job and join the new one.
In regards to the timing of a petition -
as we have mentioned, ANY time after recieving receipt u can start ur new work...so why u waiting for absolute 1 or 2 weeks before july to start the paperwork???? do it 4 weeks before, and even if receipt comes early, nobody will force u to join then and there. once u have receipt, u can give whatever reason u want and join the new employer at ur chosen date....

One more confusion, guess I'm confused a lot now:confused:

Thanks a lot!

PD cud have been applied at time of filing the new I140 but now you need to file new labor and new I140 to get the PD ported.
Still consulting a lawyer is best.

You made my day. Thanks so much. :):):):):):):)
I don't understand why people are right now so worried about priority date retrogression. If you have passed 180 days after I140 approval, go ahead, change your job and incase your 485 gets denied, reapply with new employer, with new new job description, using old PD and get GC soon as your priority date will be current. Am I missing something?
There is no way I am going to spend 6-7 years in the same job with the same title(maybe even same company).
Most of the points are true, but using the OLD PD is still a question.
People worried so much about PD, becuase of using "All Confusion 21 (AC21)". It is an "add on" item to the pending 485 cases, so it depends on the IO reviewing your case. Right now there are couple of threads in IV discussing that AC21 based denial cases.
Keep moving employer to employer and reapplying GC, may cost you a lot and you have to keep maintaining your H1B, becuase as soon as your 485 denied, your EAD becomds invalid and how will you switch your current job. Some one says MTR cost more than $600.
Then eventually this becomes your life long challenge of working on immigration matters every day.

I couldn't help post a reply. I was trying not to add to the buzy server traffic.
Isn't it amazing, thousands of people are waiting with bated breath for the USCIS update news and some idiot opens a new threads to start a baseless rumor. And claims that news comes from Greg. This so called news as it turns out is a comment by some troll "south" on Greg's website.
Our friend here who opened this thread fails to even see the connection between the id handle "south" and his post" going south." Honestly, things like this make you wonder, how can such people call themselves highly skilled.
You are so blind with your belief that some thing positive will come out that you cant see what is happening. I have made it very clear that it was a comment in my post, and can't you see the link.
How stupid are you ? Why can't you just let it go if you don't like it ?

I am a June 25th filer, and i got my receipt for 485/131/765 on Sept 10th and haven't received any EAD or AP and no LUD as well forget about FP. I called TSC multiple time and was told first to wait till 90 days of filling ,then 30 days past receipt now 4 more weeks; since they are heavily backlogged busy in issuing receipts for 485 filer.
When i contacted my lawyer he told me the same he is still waiting for the receipts for some of his clients who filed in July/August and reassured me that if or when a receipt is issued he will also get a receipt notice, and will contact me ... so don't worry to much regarding FP misplacement and relax it will come... after all it is National security, if the US is not concerned regarding it then why should you .;)
By the way my PD is March,2003
How come TSC is slow in yr case?Try giving a call to them if you get helpful IO its good.I was thinking guys who are in TSC are lucky.
infact mine is from Nebraska...my A # numbers are changed...First name Last name my lawyer has made a confusion thats also wrong interchanged.As I have EAD adjudicated I have to pay new fees for new EAD with corrected name accepting my mistake of filing with interchanged names. Thats what IO told me yesterday.
Most of my friends in NYC-applied in TSC July 2...They have got evertything by Aug end infact some of them have done FP too in sep.
I am waiting for FP so that I can request them for correction too.
Sorry for writing blah blah blah....

Here is my honest opinion.... you guys need to highlight the fact that IV is equlally concerned about PBEC issue. This is what i have heard and read from a lot of folks... Just to let u guys know that even my app is stuck with PBEC..
Sorry that u r stuck at PBEC. It is more than 4 months since i tuned into labor forums. Is there any progress at PBEC? Has the RIR Q moved to mid 2002 consistantly? Earlier Non RIR Q was ahead. Is this still the case?
I can understand those without labor not coming fully forward.
U must understand that it will be 4-6 months atleast by the time we see the fruits of any new law, but if we miss this chance, the options are very bleak. Here is why.
If u dont get any relief now, there will be none for may be another couple of years.
There are enough aspirants that can consume this years and next years quota whose PD is in 2002 for some countries like INDIA (even for Eb2). Dont be fooled by the forward movement of PD now.
The way the USCIS works and the way priority date moves, u will see some forward movement till sep' 06 and again they will move back a couple of years. For those who come out of labor process from PBEC the situation is no different than it is today, if u cant file I-485 and get portability. U will be even more dissapointed.

I recently got back from India and got my stamping done in New Delhi instead of Chennai. I tried taking the emergency quota option in Chennai and was not successful. I got fed up with the system and opted for New Delhi and the stamping process went without a hitch.
One thing I would suggest is to take all your previous H1 original docs as the consular asked me for mine to make sure I was always in status.
Good luck
As per http://www.murthyindia.com/content/em_appt.html if you're working in the US and are returning back to work, you can qualify for emergency quota. Is this a viable option? My travel dates in Aug / Sep / Oct are not confirmed yet and so I am planning to take an emergency appointment only.

People do not earn Ph.D. for money. A Ph.D. gives you prestige and you literally stand tall in the crowd for the rest of your life. People call you 'Dr.', which has more value than anything. Most importantly faculties NEVER lose their jobs once they are tenured......NEVER. There is NOTHING in this universe that can fire a Professor (excepting criminal offenses, academic dishonesty etc.). They never fear that their employer will ill treat them, not pay them, yale at them etc. etc. It takes years of blood and sweat (and intelligence) to earn a Ph.D. Society treats them with reputation and not no mention they live a peaceful life (professionally) throughout their lives.
Yes true ....its not easy to get into the ivory tower of tenured prof.
Most phds dont make into that. Mainly phds from top schools make into the ivory tower that you are describing.
Perhaps you are working in univ as faculty due to your phd...good for you....but all dont work as prof.

According to USCIS Ombudsman 1/3rd of cases are pending more than 1 year due to namecheck. Also there are many cases stuck for more than 3 years. E
I think that 1/3 of PENDING cases have been stuck for more than one year, not 1/3 of all cases. Trust me if 1/3 of all cases were stuck for more than one year, there would be a huge outcry

I think you are confusing it with administrative laws. Legislator makes laws, but they also give power to different government agencies to make laws within their administrative authority. Laws made by legislator go into effect as soon as the president signs it; Laws made by administrative agencies need to go into the whole federal register and other procedures.
I just cannot recollect where I had read that the law has to be published somewhere and there is 90 days delay (when someone can comment if necessary) and only then it becomes a law. I could be absolutely wrong though
Also, Sessions was able to get an amendment passed last time since SJC was in a tearing hurry. That might not be the case this time and they might want to implement this bill soon to 'stem the flow across the borders'. Personally I cannot wait for some new bill to take effect.
I really wish that you are right about the first point and I am right about the second ;-)

I dont want your colour to change but media keeps writing stuff,i guess we are intelligent enough to make our informed judgements.
I do respect your view if you hold that as per your own judgement but I feel the time calls for teaming up with President rather than going after him.
This will do us good I guess.Rest, its your color,you can decide which one you want to wear:)
:) Alright lets leave the prez alone :p . Just curious, do you think this can move through senate, house and conference committee by august? I am following this drama for 2 years and my conclusion is that legislative action takes a lot of time from initiation to completion. With presidential politics building up for next year's election it will be very challenging to pass any law with the limited time on hand.
