EB2 is for advanced degree with exceptional ability.
3 year degree is not a advanced degree. (Here will consider as 3 year college studies- may be comparable to an associate degree or greater)
Diploma is not considered for GC. It is useful for H1B.
Try in EB3. Still not give 100% guarentee.
They need 4 year single source education/degree, for US equivalent.
My friend with 3 year degree + 1 year B.ED degree + 2 year MSc denied for EB2 for education. Evaluation done with most advanced evaluator. Still denied, now on appeal with AAO. Even with 6 year total university studies not accepted. How they accept your 3 year degree.
USCIS refers to EDGE database. It is not equate 3 year with US bachelor degree.
It equate 3+2 Indian degree (not diploma) to US 4 year degree.
Exactly but mere emphasis solely on educational qualification is unfortunate as after few years in job market, your skills & experience has more leverage than the degree and I am saying this based on my personal experience. In our group I was the one with least amount of formal education but still I got promoted 2 times ahead of Masters degree holders form US and foreign universities.

HLG has confirmed that the CIS is not returning I-485 Applications back to those who filed I-485 during the first week of July. This is leading many to speculate that the CIS may reverse course and re-re-amend the July Visa Bulletin; whether the Visa Bulletin actually reopens remains to be seen. HLG normally refrains from commenting on rumors, but we have talked to several Washington insiders and believe that this is seriously being considered.
What does this mean for foreign nationals who planned on filing I-485s in July 2007?
HLG recommends that all foreign nationals who planned on filing I-485s in June take two actions:
1. Have your medical appointments completed. Medical appointments can back up quite quickly. Therefore we urge people to complete their medicals.
2. Send in your documents to HLG. HLG�s I-485 Step By Step Guide has a list of documents that we need for all I-485 filing. HLG will not begin preparing the I-485 at this time, but we still recommend that you send us all of the items on the list.
HLG I-485 Step By Step Guide: http://www.hammondlawfirm.com/485step_by_step.htm
What does this mean for foreign nationals who planned on filing via Consular Processing?
We urge all foreign nationals to attend consular appointments. The Consulates are clearly issuing visa stamps to those with appointments.

USCIS cannot generate visas out of thin air, nor can it waive the per-country cap. Its job is to implement the law, not to make them. It does, however, have the ptoential to do a LOT of harm, thanks to its notorious inefficiency. It is a telling statement on our current sorry state of affairs that USCIS is the least of our concerns at the moment.
Sometimes I think that rather than writing to these politicians ,we should write to USCIS.This retrogression is caused by them.They didn't wait for any bill to be passed for this retrogression.There is no use of talking to politicians,they don't care.
I know that USCIS will not care either but USCIS did it out of nowhere ,till sep2005,everything was fine for them and suddenly in oct 2005,they put us in backward direction.Now after a year and a half ,we are at the same spot,waiting for the visa bulletin and staying depressed for a day or two after seeing it.
I don't know .I am so mad at everybody.
Sorry for the ranting.
Btw,i have already sent emails to USCIS and chicago tribune regarding this .

you are complaining about the doctor who missed to check mark the tb test. Even you missed to fill in your profile.
Please update your profile.
Thanks
I am surprised that instead of contributing to the case, you are taking this matter in another direction. This is just a simple forum;, me NOT completing my profile is not going to create any financial or any other type of loss FOR ANYONE. But the Doctor missing this important thing will now, in total cost me, about $1300 (which includes costs related to tests and travel etc). I could go on....
I am surely going to update my profile as time permits. Please do not waste precious time by adding unnecessary comments.

I would save expenses of atleast one year in an emergency fund before putting extra money towards house payoff.
In better job market you can reduce your emerency fund to upto six months worth of expenses and move rest of the money to reduce principle you owe towards your house.

Did you file for I-485? If so, what is the address mentioned in the I-485 application? If it is US address, then you should be residing at that address.
I-485 application indicates that beneficiary is residing in the USA and applying for adjustment of status.

The address on 485 is a US address. I was in Jersey City when my firm applied for 485. However, subsequent to 180 days of filing, I transferred to Detroit practive with the same firm. And, I provided my cousin's address in Detroit where I lived temporarily. Subsequent to that, I moved to Windsor, Canada, because it is a nicer place to live.
I did consult with my attorney at that time, and she suggested that it is fine for me to live in Canada.
Your suggestions?

From a Constitution standpoint, Obama believes the Congress should pass the law and his executive branch will implement it.
Unfortunately, thanks to the filibuster, the senate is broken and nothing important has gotten passed. The Health care bill was watered down to make it almost useless.
He seems to forget that he also has a role of a leader to move the country in the right direction even if it may be unpopular.
There are issues that have over 60% support (eg. Don't ask Don't tell, Legal immigration issues, Energy tax credit, etc.) that he can support via executive orders but refuses to do so from a standpoint of the Constitution.
So, we are at
the Left are frustrated because he has abandoned their core issues
the Independents are frustrated because of the Job market and benefits from Health care won't kick in till 2012, etc.
the very small moderate right does not like him because of differences in policies
the rest of extreme right hates him since they think he was born in Kenya or black guy should not be the president.
It will be interesting to see what this election changes :)

From what I know TN visa is not dual intent like H1B.
This is correct.
So you can't continue processing your GC when holding a TN visa.
This is NOT correct.
I-140 Filing Not Dispositive for TN - NAFTA TN Lawyer - Brian D. Zuccaro - Buffalo, NY (http://www.naftatnlawyer.com/i-140-filing-not-dispositive-f/)
[From the link]
The fact that an alien is the beneficiary of an approved I-140 petition may not be, in and of itself, a reason to deny an application for admission, readmission, or extension of stay if the alien�s intent is to remain in the United States temporarily.

The pattern of RFE's on AP's are from those cases applied at NSC >> CSC issued Receipts/EAD/AP >> 485 back to NSC.
StuckInRetro - I believe you may be correct. My scenario fits into the case you have mentioned. May be you can add condition stating people who made lot of trips in and out of US. I have made close to 9 - 10 trips...

What does your attorney say? He/she should have had some idea when they filed under EB2. The attorney should clearly not take a risk regarding educational requirements. Maybe you will have to do the MTR and submit better evaulation (if you feel the degree and experience are suitable). Best

I agree
I was just thinking if it would help to gain more publicity if this site goes by a different name. On several instances while calling lawmakers or other people, the moment I mention immigrationvoice.org they think it is related to Illegal immigration / CIR etc. I need to stress that it is about legal immigration.
Even the flyers don't catch enough attention
Any name that does not have immigration in it (something like numbersusa), and reflects our main focus - green card retrogression and legal immigration would help - Just a thought...

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.

Today, I filed an official complaint with IRS about this employer. They told, they are going to send a notice asking the employer to reply to the tax bearer within 10 days from the receipt of the letter. I don't know how the employer is going to react and if they would still provide a corrected W2. Hoping, they would provide, otherwise I would have to call IRS again after another 2 weeks time. I had to be on the phone line for almost 30 mins to reach the IRS customer representative. It is a real pain.
Employer will send the W-2. They will in big trouble if they don't. Also, there could be possible more scrutiny/audits of their accounts.
