Did anyone get refund back?
Did any US-MS get refund back?
From immigration-law.com:
04/06/2007: What Does Refund Checks from USCIS for FY 2008 H-1B Cap Filing Mean?
There are a growing number of reports from the H-1B cap filers beginning from late yesterday that they started receiving "refund" of filing fees from the CSC or VSC. These are the cases of the petitioners whose filing fee checks have been cashed by the Service Centers. We do not know whether this news implies that the USCIS has completed the job of sorting-out and data-enties for all the cases and the random selection process has commenced. Assuming otherwise, one wonders how they have decided that these cases have been not selected and the filing fees should be refunded. There are two theories as to how the random selection would be conducted. Obviously, the entire cases should be data-entried before they can start a random selection process. Otherwise, the random selection process will be not scientic and too arbitrary. But no one knows. One theory is that in order to make the data entries, they should take the filing fees and the payment of these fees will have to be refunded for those which fail to make it. Other theory is that the checks will not be deposited until the selections are made. Currently the process of random selection remains a mystery. However, the fact that refund checks started being mailed out may indicate that the first theory is more likely than the second theory, and there is a possibility that the random selection is made by the computer during the process of data entry rather than after completion of data-entries of the entire cases. Since they had only opened and sorted out a little over 34,000 cases, it may be hard to believe that yesterday they could have completed sorting out of the entire remaining cases in one day. Please stay tuned to this website for the development of H-1B lottery results.

I remember you came forward to donate 50$. I thought of a couple of ways to do it. Can you do that through signing up for a 50$ recurring contribution and stop that the follwoing month or you can find a partner to donate the other 50$. We need funds as well to reach our goals
In my opinion keeping donation options from $25/- upwards to whatever max value within One time and recurring categories would be inclusive startegy.
Currently we are turning away the members who want to donate but who can not afford and/or do not want to donate $ 100/- and upwards.
My personal theory is that who is really willing to donate $ 100/- and upwards and can afford is going to donate that handsome amount even if we keep $ 25/- option.
Now Ball is in court of core.

Pascal ... I really admire your straight thoughts. I am watching this EB2 Vs Eb3 uproar from last couple of months. Its amazing that we are more focused on this useless conversation rather than taking positive steps and spending our energy to fix the problem. Only if all the affected people start contributing money, start organizing the state chapters, and start participating in the IV activities .. we will see some light at the end of the tunnel. It purplexes me that people use this forum to start war of words, just to keep them busy, but seldom use the forum to unite themselves and fight for the cause.
Please ... I do not want to offend people, just urging everyone to think really hard to solve the problem.

I am going to file my h1 application tomorrow under the master's qouta. I know its nearly impossible that my petition would be approved but I have no other choice. I just have one question:
1. Should I go for a premium processing?
<<My OPT expires may 15th and my employer is still willing to file my h1 tomorrow. If I go for premium processing, that will atleast stop me from getting an admit into a community college this fall to maintain my status>>
Advice please. Also there is no way they will increase the h1b on the master's qouta, right ?
I think you need to wait until USCIS finish they Lottery/Sorting process.
At this moment they won't accept your application.
Please contact your Lawyer for accurate information

As some folks have posted on another thread, the USCIS is finally getting around to consolidating all their applications in a single database.

Students,
Please make sure your EAD doesnt start before October 2008. That way, you will have 2 complete chances of getting H1 if things wont change even after presidential elections.
General Rule of thumb is "Graduate in august put start date as October 1st for your OPT"
This is not easy coz when we graduated in 2000-2001 area we didnt had to choose some date just bcoz the visa ia not available. We used to worry more about getting a good job than this visa and we used graduate when coursework & thesis are complete. I think things have changed drastically.
Hope this helps.

If HR 5882 bill is passed, it is good that we have more visa numbers. But the issue of random processing without considering priority dates is frustrating to people with older PDs. Lot of people here are eligible to get GCs with the current cutoff dates, but still are being left out. I think, this is another very important issue to be fight for by the IV core team and members.

Finally i think we may reach 50%.... I swear as soon as somebody confirms me that we have reached $29,500 figure I will put $500 and another $500 when we reach $59,500.....
Keep it going guys ... I am bit positive for the halfway mark..... but don't think that the full way mark Miracle will happen.....

This is the sad reality. A lot of people applied using sub labor during the June and July fiasco. A lot of people made it through the July 15th deadline by atleast filing a 140 through sub labor.
Now USCIS is processing all these 140s and as they have old dates, they are becoming approvable.
As long as there are visas with old dates approvable - USICS will exhaust them. As long as USCIS exhausts old visas, DOS need not move the dates forward.
RIght, bygones are bygones, we have to move on...no point in sulking about it..:)...cant change it now..move ahead..thats all...;)

Ok, so if I file the i-140/i-485 now and leave/re-enter the country with a new stamp. Now, if my I-140 is approved after that, and then my i-485 is looked at after that date, will I considered to be in status then, because by the time they are looking at the AOS application, I have already left and returned to the country??
Or should be in status the day the AOS petition is filed and even if i leave/re-enter the country after that, it does not matter?!
It appears that they look at status issues at the time the AOS petition is filed. That's when the "clock" stops. If you leave and re-enter the country it does not retroactively reset the "clock".

Good proposal and initiative....but few points you should note that others might also have brought out.
1.) Pre-adjudication (process I-485, send RFE etc. just short of visa number allocation)
is already prevalent in USCIS and has been since several years now.
Just google for "pre-adjudication USCIS" ...but this might just suffice:
judiciary.house.gov/hearings/pdf/USCIS080430.pdf (judiciary.house.gov/hearings/pdf/USCIS080430.pdf)
page 2
How else do you think thousands of visa numbers were assigned and GC's
issued in June 2007?
2.) Lawmakers will be throughly opposed to the idea of a pseudo GC as given in your
proposal, that would be tantamount to diminishing the value of adjusting the status
and visa allocation as it stands in the INA now.
3.) That said...I completely agree that as a baby step USCIS should make the pre-adjudication
transparent to the applicants in the "case status online" to relieve the applicants of
mental agony.

What Sheriff did is absolutely inhumane and entire human society must be ashamed of his act.
IMHO, When a lady is 9 months pregnant, NO punishment to her is justifiable. Not in this world or the world after us, as simple as that. Any punishment must be postpartum, after full recovery.
I can't believe there are people in this forum defending his actions.--Are we forgetting that Sheriff was dealing/punishing two people here? What did the unborn do to deserve this treatment?
After reading this thread and the posts by people who supported the sheriff--I really have a bad taste in mouth. How low did we stoop as a human society that we can't understand the labor pains?

Dear newbie2020, QASleuth, NolaIndian and Others,
I will be there for this conference call.
Sorry folks for staying away from the communication going on in this thread for some time. I am personally going through some changes now. This Wednesday evening I came to know that my present job assignment is going to end shortly. (Fortunately, I have a new job offer). Now I am in the process of trying to get into this new job and it will take time to get adjusted to this new job. This means, I have to leave my H1b and use AC21/EAD to accept the new job. I had a conversation with one of the attorneys of Murthy law firm regarding all the Pros and Cons of my Job change. I documented the whole conversation and will be posting that to this site shortly for everyone else's use.
Even though I just posted this idea in this site, Guys please don't wait for anyone else's leadership. If you feel you can take this up, please do. It's your idea too. Do not give ownership of any idea to anyone. Why I am writing this at this point of time is I am going through some job transition for which I need a month or 2. So, my participation in this effort may not be up to my own expectations. However I will do whatever I can during this period and much more once I settle in my new job.
Will be in touch.
Sure,
We can setup a Conference call next week Wednesday 3/3/09 8:30PM EST
Here is the bridge info for folks interested in joining
Bridge number: +1 218 339 2626

Dear Mr. pascal,
Given that you are the super moderator, how can you even hint that EB3 vs EB2 reflect skill level of employee - don't you know by now that category is determined by "job's Requirement"?!!!!!!
Also your stereotyping of all EB3s as 3 year Indian degree holder is the most unfortunate - I only hope that rest of the IV leadership is not made up of that crappy idea.
For the record, I hold US Master's degree and am really offended by your comment and your view point.
For the rest of the members reading this topic, this is exactly why being EB3 on IV is becoming more frustrating by the day... especially when the super mods posses such views...
I am sorry forthis is wandering away from topic, but everyone including super mod mr. pascal has done that on this thread.
:mad: :mad: :mad:
Nss you really have some problem for which you should seek professional help. I am EB2, but I don't go around wining, why I am not EB1, yes the word is winning. I told you yesterday, we didn't make the system and yes I will take the credits for being EB2 because I worked diligently for it, taking student loans and working professional job.
And that job title crap, take it somewhere else, because if that was the case there wouldn't be any Masters or PHD level education, neither there would be STEM. Give credits to our fellow members who come here and work diligently to gain higher education.
And yes, I am sure lot of people will concur with me, the Indian body shop companies, who bring a lot of people from India, abuse the H1b system and file green cards. The EB3 category is a abyss of applications filed for these type of cases.
Next time when you want to argue, keep your facts clear and handy.
Lets drop this topic now, as it serves no purpose. The reason some threads focused on EB2 was because,
1. Number of people stuck in EB2 is higher 2004-2006
2. The back log can be cleared only when, the retrogression can end, I think the cake story didn't make sense to a lot of people.
Lastly please don't post anymore EB2 or EB3, because personally I don't care about that and neither should anyone else. The only way we can bring about this change is through unity and working diligently towards our goals.
All those people who are winning about EB2 or EB2, do some more constructive, how many people did you bring in to IV recently?
How many friends and relatives you called yesterday?
FOCUS
That is how we will will! don't let the divide and rule beat us again, we all read out history books.
My request to administrator is to please bar membership to people who have such bad views, as it will not help to serve our purpose. NSS if you think we are creating a problem for you EB3 and not listening to you guys. You are more than happy to leave and fight your own battle.
It is easier to complain, than to work patiently to bring upon a change. Don't break IV spirit.!
