I couldn't believe this. Wonderful news. Thanks
But the downside to this is that most EB2 July filers have (or will be) been renewing their EAD's in August/Sepetember and this bulleting will not let USCIS give out 2 yr EAD's and instead hand out 1 yr ones.
Just because your PD is current dosnt mean that USCIS will process your apps right away. There are folks whose PD was current under July bulletin and their apps haven't been touched based on some anecdotal evidence here..
But the Eb3 news is not good.
just my 2 cents

The worst thing that can happen is it retrogresses further next month. I think it will move at a slow pace until the "fiasco"season starts in July

I, for one, am happy with this Oct visa bulletin. This is how it should be. First give GCs to all those with < 2003 PD. You guys with 2006 and 2007 pd should be glad you even got to file I-485 and EAD. What are you bitching about?.
I dont care about the red dots. I stand corrected. you guys are being selfish.

Trust me, my friend - I surely believe in systematic movement and by this june/july it will be Dec05 or beyond. Dates for EB2 have stayed around apr04 for really longer and then suddenly to 06. Very few perms were cleared in 05 (as per your posting). It should logivcally be past 2005 , never to go back.BTW ,we missed GC last aug/sept lotto
Me too. Actually , when the movement is not systematic and the gates are wide open, then they randomly pick up the cases and approve whatever file comes to them. The ones with older PDs suffer a lot while the ones with new ones get their GCs.

AILA has reported a very interesting or confusing DOS LegalNet Office letter which one of the members received towards the fact that the consular posts had already been allocated their numbers for the month of July prior to EB visa numbers becoming unavailable on July 2 and that the posts may continue to use their July allocations of EB numbers, and continue to issue Immigrant Visas for the rest of this month, July, for those applicants who were scheduled for IV interviews in July.

EB5 doesn't need I-140. In fact EB5 does not apply with I-485, EB5 application# is I-526. Either we are missing out some crucial information on LuckyPaji's case or he is having little fun at our expense. They haven't even completed receipting June 29 cases. This guy is just playing with us or his dates are completely wrong.
Since it is absolutely impossible with EB3 Sep 2006 PD I thought he might have applied in a different category..Do not know the specifics of EB5...Incase what you said is true whatever that guy said is just a JOKE!

Received Date on my I-797 for my I-140 is 07/23/2007 and notice date is 08/20/07.
My I-140 is pending in NSC since last July 07. I asked my lawyer's office to check the status. USCIS replied back saying the receipt date in their database is 08/20/07 and it will take long time as they received alot of applications in July 07. USCIS asked my lawyer's office to contact after 45 days.
I thought they should process my I-140 based on the received date mentioned on I-797 but that is not true it seems.
Any idea guys? Anyone faced this issue? Please suggest, is there anything I can do to ask USCIS to process my app based on receipt date?
Also please share the phone number of NSC and sequence of keys to be pressed to reach to the customer service.
Thanks,
-D

pd_recap and nk2006 - thanks for the initiatives - we will keep improving this effort in every possible way.
Those who invoked AC21 - those who plan to invoke and those who do not plan to invoke must all work towards this. Who knows? A lot of people will be forced to invoke AC21 in future in this economy.
So please take this seriously.

Almost all companies, in every field (engg, medicine, nursing, research..) hire people through contracting agencies. Most of the companies these days hire only US citizens or GC or EAD and try best not to hire H1b and if you look at their employees, it is rare to find 50% or more h1b holders.
On the contrary, outsourcing companies may have majority of their workers coming here on L1 or H1b and when such a fgee is imposed, I guess, for the biggies, it is just a small adjustment in their costs of bringing workers which they will adjust in their other expenses.
Overall, I am not sure, how much revenue such a law will generate. Will it generate enough revenue which is being claimed (600 million?)
To me, this kinda speech and trashing Indian companies and outsourcing etc... and showing that they acted on it just looks like it is pure politics to save face during the election year.

Congrats: I feel better after seeing your posting. Mine too was received by R William at 7.55 on 7/2. May be it is on way too
Thanks. It appears they are working their way through the July 2nd filers. I was getting quite nervous as my current visa expires this year and is non-renewable. If the checks had not been cashed last week, I probably would have re-filed the paperwork this week. (If my attorney thought that would be in my best interest.)
Best of luck to you and all other's that are still losing sleep over this. ;)
