Dear Sir,
There are many possible solutions to the problems we face today, such as,
1) Recapturing all the unused Visas for the past 10 years.
2) Increasing yearly quota of employment based immigrant visas
3) Removing the per-country visa limit or modifying it to suit the population ratio of each country.
4) Allowing I-485 and EAD filings even if visas are not available, and then processing I-485s per priority dates.
5) Counting Immigrant visa per primary applicant only, rather than counting for everyone in family
6) Making the immigration process independent of employer. Some of these measures are already mentioned in pending "Immigration Reform Bill".
Thank you.
Sincerely,

"Abolish Labor Substitution"
I keep saying this every other day in these forums, no one however realizes the enormous impact Labor Substitution is having on the PD's.
I guess most people who are in these forums bought a certified Labor and hence are afraid to talk about abolishing it. You guys have to understand that if Labor Substitution is abolished its not going to effect people who already have done it. It should stop further abuse of the rule.
Please guys I know we wont get support for this from the lawyers and employers, but whenever you guys write to senators and other politicians please include this also.

newbies said:WHY ?? Many people got the sub LC through their employers. It is 100% legal. If someone does not have a chance to get that, they should be happy for people who get that sub LC, not against that. They are in the same boat as you are. They might have a bit lucky to push the PD a bit earlier but that is all.
nato said:once he ports after 180 days or looses the contract, billings, they sell it again. Sub against original labor may continue but against a copy should be banned as it promotes recycling endlessly by these desi consulting co. btw I am also on sub labor with PD before 2001
newbies said:I agree with you on the copy LC part. My company just gave me a ORGINAL Sub EB2 Jan/2001 right before Thankgiving. I feel very very lucky since Dec bulletin allows me to concurrent I140/I485 Also the first thing I requested is to check if the LC is orginal or not and anyone ever used it. The orginal part I can see by my eyes but the "not anyone ever used it" I took the words from the attorney and HR.
They paid everything for my family including EAD and AP. So, I don't see any things wrong in here to use subs LC. They also paid me more than the LC required (6 figure salary).

priyargc said:I think Labor substitution is totally unfair. This is a example of broken system of USCIS. How one can justify that person enter recently with substitute LC (May be purchasing or negotiating with company) has higher PD than person is waiting for few years?
This is totally unfair and must stop immidiately.
gcrayudu said:How can we know if a labor certification is used or not?? Is there any process or way we can know??
nato said:it couldn't have been used. when I was looking for a sub labor there were tons of people out there selling and that too they would want to use a photocopy but I found one decent company and saw the original LC which has a multicolor signature and my 140 got cleared in 3 weeks. didn't get the Jan 01 part though which country?

newbies said:Please remember that that person must qualify for the LC by the time of PD. It means he could wait the same time like you are or longer.
Even I am set with my GC due to PD is current now. I still fight for the retro and ask my employer to do the samething (note : my company has over 35K people and over 2K visa holder. Their voice could be very strong), but not for the Subs LC since many people could benefit it from my company.
