There would be many of us who would be able to relate to this article . I don't feel it is totally false, I guess this is the author's Memoir (partly true & partly made up ) & not his autobiography.
(made up part is what the author foresees in the future - reason given below )
- If not parents then it might be grandparents who kept waiting/hoping to see their grandson/granddaughter's children but passed away without seeing them.
- Latter part (what sounds like made up part ) is what the author saw in working/service class families in the US who came here 20 - 30 years ago (i hv myself come across such families) & believes his future would be the same - who knows it can be true for anyone ???
During youth a guy is busy in his job, is able to pay all his bills as well as save some money for vacation, which happens during long weekends or once a year , life goes by like this but when he grows older/retires & wishes to go back & settle down he finds things are not what he wants or wanted - children dislike staying/going to india , they study in a college in a different city , visit them once in a while , he & his wife r left alone & find it very lonely here. He knows he has not become a multi-millionaire & looks back & realizes he has always lived a hand-to-mouth life - BUT Is this what he wanted ? was all this worth it ?
He could never reach a conclusion & one day he passes away. Now his wife is left alone even lonelier & she has the same questions.
She visits india every year for 1 or 2 months - she likes it there. But
She cannot settle there - it will make her far from her children , She cannot settle here - because her roots are there.

I-539 only allows you to change status between various non-immigrant categories. It seems that reentering the country on H4 is the only way (there may be some way to do this other than that but i am not aware of it.)
If your H1 is valid, why even bother trying to change status in the US? Simply have wife come back on an H4 and all will be good, I am sorry i couldnt be of more help :(

The large drop in competitiveness (is that a word?) in the U.S. is largely attributed to the immigrant population posting to message boards during work hours!
That's one way correct as most of High skills immigrants struck to same jobs from last 3 to 5 years with same responsibilities due to back logs and retrogression :)

Please be careful before making allegations. There is nothing morally or legally wrong about planning your taxes. Do you claim your spouse or kids as your dependents in your taxes? Why is it wrong to get an exemption for your parents whom you support with your earnings?

Cases Pending Other Agency Action: 136,763
4,905: Other Agencies Investigation Result Waiting
130,091: Interview Completed but Waiting for Name Check Clearance
.
What about the 130k cases waiting for FBI name check - I'm surprised nobody is looking at it. If this is all EB related (worst case scenario), we are looking at around 240k cases of EB category. Well, I already had an email which screwed up my mood today and now this...... time to dump it all and first enjoy the weekend :-)
Afterall, GC is just one of the many factors in life and the more you keep it at the lower priority end, the more you can enjoy TODAY :-)

Hello,
My 485 status online just changed today. Here's the new message:
Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: This case is now pending at the office to which it was transferred.
The I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS was transferred and is now pending standard processing at a USCIS office. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address. We process cases in the order we receive them. You can use our processing dates to estimate when this case will be done, counting from when USCIS received it. Follow the link below to check processing dates. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. To receive e-mail updates, follow the link below to register.
--------
The previous message said that "my case was transfered from CA to NSC on Sept 12th 2007". I had been seeing the previous message for the past 9 months. Anyone knows what the new message means?
Coincidentally, I had called today and spoke with an IO to check on the status of my 485. He said that within 30-60 days it should get assigned to an officer. Would this have any bearing on the new status message? I see an LUD with today's date.
Thanks much for any help,
Kunal

Once you got a filing a can donate a fraction to IV..
Way to goooooooooooooooooooooooo....
I am on H-1B and wife on H-4. We did not get our stimulus payment last year since she does not have SSN.
For people who did not receive stimulus payment last year can claim it this year. So for people like me whose wives are on ITIN, can get $600 back this year or so I think. The way to do this can be:
First file Married filing separately, claim $600 credit and then amend it to file married filing jointly. IRS will not ask stimulus back. Let me know your thoughts on this idea. I wish I could get $1200 but hey even $600 is better than nothing.
Any thoughts??

Thanks to all your inputs. It was really helpful.
I crossed the border - Blaine, WA to reenter Canada as PR. I went inside the US CBP office at the Border to complete my Car export process. I asked the CBP officer in charge for the export processing about returning my I-94. He took it from me and talked to the CBP officers managing the entry/exit procedures. Not sure what they talked as the line for export processing is far away from the regular line for immigration process. I saw the officer leaving the I-94 in one of the tables but nothing was entered in the system at that time. I asked the export officer if I need to do anything else and he said I am good to go.
I have no way of knowing if my exit from US was properly recorded. Hopefully, the US customs seal on my Car Title and other paper work I got from the Canadian side along with my residency (DL in BC) docs should help me to prove my stay outside US when I go for stamping next time/enter US POE. Keeping my fingers crossed till I enter US next time!
Thanks once again for all the help.

Ok, so my PD got current (EB3 India). What next?
Optimystic -- is your PD current?
IF you have a current PD RIGHT NOW...AND submitted your I-485 on or before June-July 2007... AND have an approved I-140
(i) they are sweeping through all the files to find such files because if you filed your application in June-July 2007, 180 days have likely passed since your name check was submitted to the FBI. Name check request are made within weeks of generating a receipt for you.
(ii) they plan to complete this sweep by March 10; UNLESS visas run out, they plan to process such cases in approx 60 days (hah! like I believe them).
(iii) within the set of applications with current PDs, they apparently process in order of RD. Not sure if this is within the EB preference and current PD or across all EB preferences.
(iv) Some cases are approved without any changes in LUD i.e. that amazing email arrives before without any prior LUD changes.
IF you don't have a current PD, I have nothing to say except best of luck to all of us...the situation is pretty grim. The movement of EB-3 ROW will mop up most of the green cards left this year.

One quick question: is this report publicly available, i.e. can we send it as is to the media, or are there any copyright etc issues?

unfortunately you can't speak to anyone over the 1-800# at the Service Centre. Your boss/employer only has to call the service centre and follow up as to what is happening with the case..otherwise you r losing each day with no result...
either the RFE is complicated for which your boss doesnt want to callup INS r what follow up with them..if i94 expires beyond 240 days you will be in more trouble
