    few days? VA_AUG_2002, if your case went to regional before PBEC and have received/replied 45 day letter then yours is in the pipe, it could be just few days/weeks! here is my analysis- For cases that went to regional DOL before PBEC (except for SWA/SESA cases in Philly DOL area) they hardly...

    rally united! It depends on howmany people actually turn up on that day. going by your example, if 10 turnup to raise the PBEC and 90 for retrogression, whats the point in welcoming all if we are going to protest seperately. we will raise every issue united. we may have 2 to 3 issues and all of...

    Rally!!! It would be better if we can do it in next 2 weeks when congress will be in session. we need their attention before they pass the law so the best time would be the day the senate reconvenes. we need another poll to find out what most prefer, sunday or monday. I would say an excel...

    ADS are expensive Thanks to everyone who responded. I spoke to NYTimes and this does not seem to be an option for us. they charge $40000 around for a half page standby AD. Standby means they can publish anytime in next 2 weeks or so whenever they have space. otherwise the regular AD of...

    agree agree with you. 108,000 includes approved+denied+withdrawn. my guess is that they should have completed the data entry for atleast 90% of the cases. if they are below 90%, no way they can complete it by end of june i.e., in 3 months.

    people living here legally are supposed to have more rights than those living illegally. think about those protests in LA, if they would have thought police would arrest them when they come out on streets and would lose everything they have achieved in US till now, they would not have done that...

    highlighting our situation I think we are just highlighting our situation by filing lawsuit. we may not win it but atleast we make them explain the mess in the court. Even the higher management in DOL would realize because they cant just ignore it. and I know we dont have any leverage on DOL...
