The amendment was sponsored by Senator Ensign (R-Nevada) who said his staff discovered that the stimulus payments would go to illegal aliens.

In reality, the change was the result of lobbying by FAIR, an anti-immigrant group:

FAIR is accused of having ties to White Supremacists.

Its very disappointing to me. My some of friends who filed labor just 2 months before me now will go citizenship for next year.
All EB3 who filed their I140/I485 in June and afterwards have to wait till processing date cross at least June. Right now TSC is processing April 2007 cases. I believe when both center starts processing July cases then you can see significant movement in EB3 cases. I think you need to wait till September when new quota comes. Till that time as my Atorney says focus and save your Jobs. Get more skill. Without good job all above is meaning less. Busy yourself in NFL, NBA, NHL or Cricket be cool and calm. Nothing is in your hand except waiting.
yep thats my story too and I filed my I485 in June 2003. I have seen that most of applications through mid of 2002 has been approved (this does'nt include the flood caused by June 2007), but EB3 should move atleast 2-3 months at a time and will reach close June to Sep 2002, where it could be potentially stop and moving into 2003 is going to be pretty difficult

Credit cards are issued mostly to GC holders only unless they have a checking account as well with the institution-unless one lies in the application. -snip-.
Unless there has been a change in the policy after 2000, one only needs SSN and a checking account (not necessarily at the same bank) to get a credit card. It is true that having no prior credit record is a hindrance, but that mostly affects the credit line (you will get a small credit line). All F1 students with some kind of assistantship/scholarship/stipend would satisfy that. AmEx used to be a very good choice for students that time.

This is certainly good news for many. However the skeptic in me is feeling very uneasy. Why did they suddenly open the flood gates? Did they purposely create a backlog and then increase the fees (double the fees) just in time? Are we going to face other issues down the line after applying for 485?
I guess for now, we will just celebrate and try to get our 485 applications in before July 31st. After that it is a wait and watch situation.
Congratulations to all who got through this first hurdle.
If you overanalyze any situation, for the matter even, "why come to work?", one will always find consipiracy :)..
I say lets not overanalyze this and lets celebrate and keep our fingers crossed for avoiding any further issues !!..
Good luck..

We are Canadians too. IRS ruling is that if even a single person on your tax does not have a SSN, no one gets any stimulus money. Seems too weird, but that's what they say. For paying taxes, we are considered "US Persons", and should pay taxes not only on US income, but on World income (even on RRSP income within the plan unless you make a special filing to get exemption).
We are Canadian and on a visa, our son is an American citizen and we also cannot get the stimulus, not even our son's $300 which is wrong!
People do not care about the immigration problems because most do not know about them or understand them. It is a very unjust system that encourages illegal immigration and discourages allowing educated, upstanding people from coming here.

If you have already filed 140 and 485 together in July 2006, it is already more than six months. Since you wrote you have used AP, I'm assuming you have filed 485 as well.
If the above is true, you can join a new employer for a similar job or rather same job description and do AC21 to move your case to the new company. Since your 140 is still pending, it will be an issue but not something which will realistically impact you if you do your AC21 paperwork nicely. If your 140 was approvable when it was filed, you shouldnt have any issues.
You need to do two things -
a) Find an employer to switch to immediately.
b) Find a good lawyer who will help you out on AC21

i dont think its a controversy. mr. Gotcher does not agree with the interpretation. Maybe its a way to generate some additional revenues for his firm by increased traffic to the blog and potentially a class action lawsuit on behalf of the ROW people.

GC-waiting life is fully of misery and suffering [bestowed by lawyers. employers, DOL, DOS, USCIS etc.] Grassroots efforts [State chapters] is the means of GC happiness. Way to GC happiness is to follow the Eight-Fold fath of
1) Right Participation - Join the State Chapters
2) Meet the Right People - Meet the Lawmakers who can fix the system
3) Set Right the media crecord - Talk to media and dissociate our cause from that of unrelated issues H1B visa increase and "undoucumented"
4) Find more Right People to join the cause - publicity & membership drive
5) Learn more about the Right Cause - Join telecons with the core (whenever scheduled)
6) Right approach - IV talking points, best practices
7) Right Info sharing - Between chapter leaders and members about best practices, and experiences
8) Rightway to get GC Nirvana through the Grassroots "Karma"

Very good news indeed.
In the US politics for some reason, certain issues seem to get clubbed together.
Sometimes it suits our purposes and at other times it is vexing. Clearly our issue of legal immigration does not create the type of backlash from conservative republicans that the issue of illegal immigration does. Hence when our circumstances necessitate that we have to try to board the CIR train to our goals I consider it unfortunate.
On the other hand when it comes to H1b immigration, every H1b increase has corresponded with some sort of provision(mainly recapture) of EB visas also. H1b increase has tremendous support and pressure from the powerful capitalist forces in this country. Just see how the Wall street Journal and Pres.Bush gives publicity to this issue. I doubt pure EB provisions can get that sort of visibility in spite of the tremendous work of organisations like IV.
In that sense the H1b cap being exhausted indirectly gives our issue more visibility and is a good development. Lets wait until the 20K US masters cap is also filled, then publicity will increase even more.
All in all it looks good that something will work for us by the end of this year. The pressure is building on congress to do something about EB immigration.

I'm perplexed.... "You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills... Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills. "... or the one with him shouting at Tina the Llama to eat food?
In all seriousness, I haven't had time to celebrate or let it sink in. That'll come soon enough, after the events of last week have settled
I'm not going anywhere though. My battle may be over, but there's plenty of fight left in me :)

My employer sent in 30+ applications on July 2nd and said he doesn't know which one is my tracking number..but i guess i could use any one of those 30 tracking nos for proof, couldnt i?
Shd we be expecting rejection letters from USCIS per applicant stating the reason for rejection??? If not then what proof do we have for potential benefits of lawsuit?!? Confused :(

Talked to them and they think that there is no harm in doing it ...
Manish (who works with Aman) did the same .......
He put the whole I 140 application along with the I 485 filing.
These people are awesome ......... There are many other immigration forms but they dont even lift the calls.
I am just amazed with the way these people are dedicated.

in addition to the house republican leadership (Hastert, Boehner) and a couple other influential ones on immigration such as rep Sensenbrenner.
Majority of these sponsoring congressmen have a green (anti-immigration) rating, some of them having a green-red (mixed) rating. However, they're mostly red (pro-immigration) when it comes to h1-b or related skilled worker bills (this even includes sensenbrenner's votes!)..
I did all this search out of boredom, but more importantly to assuage my sinking heart. So it looks like with the sponsorship of 10 pro-skilled immigration republicans, and at least not-against-skilled immigration republican leadership, this represents a good sample of republican votes for the passage.
Question remains how and when this bill will make it to the congressional agenda now that the summer is here already.
I keep my fingers crossed.

I dont agree with you..Larrabee is a top firm who handled our case very well..its ur company to blame if they have not filed perm for you.
Sorry, I don't agree with you and also my mistake that I am linking my perm labor filing with Larrabee. I agree my perm labor is delayed because of my company.
But I have seen Larrabee handling my h1B transfer case where they screw up by missing some document. Atleast by my experience I wound not suggest my company and Larrabee as well for any immigration stuff
