Can We settle on These Bases?

OK.

Tell me where to dial in. also, one of you folks should take notes so we can post our discussion summary for all.

Idea of notes is great. Thanks Rajiv for your time.

Rajiv why BCIS issues an RFE for W2 and Pay stub when this green card is for future employment and if they want they should ask for six months or so not from the time we came to US.... this sounds harassing...just wondering if we can add something to the wish list that they should not ask for pay stubs if a person is providing W2 or they should not ask for W2 & Pay stub more than six months old...I like the idea of six months as it seems an standard word around here. Well if that sounds confusing or not appropriate in your opinion than just change the wording but if BCIS is delaying the case then why should we suffer and provide all the history of pay stubs?

Thanks

:-) I doubt if I can. CIS has the right to make certain of your status.

We will not accept

Rajiv,

No matter how many requests, we have to ask CIS to focus on out POINT. E.g. if CIS accepts item #3 "coutinue concurrent filing of I140 and I485", maybe they would say "we have accepted some of your requests". However it doesn't have any solution on our 485 backlog problem.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks,

We do not have to accept it.

BTW: Did premium processing of H1 require any legislative action? Or was it solely done by INS?

As far as I know, no leg. action might be needed. But CIS will let us know, if it were needed. I hesitate only when collection of fees are involved. If they need to charge extra fees, that might need Congressional approval.
 
Re: Got the GC stamped?

Looks like all the attendees of the meeting got their GC stamped for 5 years...

Surprisingly, nobody is posting the summary or writing anything on this thread anymore.

Whats going on guys...
- Are you still in the meeting?
- Did you create any other thread for discussion?
- ???


We have decided to pretty much go with the settlement proposal we had drafted. But hang tight, the minutes will be posted.

This litigation is a great step forward. All the steps 1-7 listed by operations would be a great help if accepted by USCIS.
Also the ad-hoc functioning of USCIS must be stopped.
Suddenly Nebraska USCIS passed a rule for I140s that combination of foreign degrees would not be accepted unless specifically mentioned in the labour petition.
For those users who had aldready applied for labour this was a nuisance since many of them got RFE's, denials because of this.
What more can we do to make I485 processing faster.
Simply sitting with our fingers crossed at the mercy of USCIS will do us no good



I intend to file a class action lawsuit on this matter. Let me know if there are enough sufferers out there.
 
OK

Rajiv, I am a new member although I keep going through these forums all the time.

I had a suggestion, if USCIS agrees for an interim GC, we should also ask for a timeframe within which they would send out the letters because if they take another year to send out letters confirming Interim GC to all those with pending I-485 over 6months then it does no good to anyone.

Thanks!

Sure.
 
Re: Class Certification Signatures

Rajeev,

As DOJ has rejected the proposal for the class certification, does it mean all the signaturers on "STATEMENT BY CLASS MEMBERS IN SUPPORT OF CLASS COUNSEL " are now not a party to the lawsuit and only those who are mentioned in the complaint are the ones.

Is there any other way we can classify this case as "Class" and if not, does it mean all the signatures have no value for the complaint except motivation and are we going to destroy them for privacy sake.

Please Comment.


The class action decision is the court's, not DOJ's. Their consent makes it a little easier, but we have astrong case for class certification.

Although, I don't believe the original poster intended to make any implications regarding the lawsuit, I agree that there is no need to single out any particular country here. Although Indians may be the majority in this particular forum (just a guess), there are many other countries here, and we are ALL in this TOGETHER! (even us Canadians - eh) :)

Yes!
 
Let me explain

I do not need the signatures for the court filing.

I am making a representation to the court (very conservatively) saying that we can get a ,1000 affidavits if needed. I know we can get more. 10,000 is a god number.

None of these signatures make you plaintiffs. These merely suppport my representation of you.

The Action Team is working on putting together a list of 50 plaintiffs. If the court so feels inclined, we will add 50 more plaintiffs to the lawsuit.

I was hoping to work these details out with the govt. But they have declined to cooperate on this issue at least.

I have sent them our settlement document.

I don't think Rajiv will agree for this. But I think we can include in Newsletter and also news letter should contain only this request and not the regular news.


It is inappropriate for us to use peoples' email addresses for anything other than what they wanted us to use them for. We must not abuse their truest.

Dear Rajiv, Maybe I missed something. As above mentioned, what did they decline? does it affect something for them to accept our settlement memo?

I had asked them to not oppose our class action motion. They declined. But to their credit, they did consider it seriously.
 
They have not declined.

Correct me if I'm wrong. It sounds to me like the USCIS is not declining our settlement offer, but rather reserving the right to challenge the notion that our suit should be all encompassing to benefit all I-485 applicants instead of just the six plantiffs mentioned in the complaint.

Re: Sound reasonable...

This sounds really very good. #4 about 485 and getting a temp GC is a very good option. With current processing times, everything is getting much delayed. What is the likelihood of these proposals getting accepted?

Please keep up the good work..

The govt. has already rejected all proposals.
