That's unacceptable. How can they move a Region case to State level?? I don't get this, maybe someone else can answer this...

PBEC is on a roll now
Friends,
My LC is approved from PBEC. MY PD is April 2004. STATE PA. RIR. Never reached regional.
I heard from my other friend that lot of his friends are getting approval left and right. I couldn't get much information from him. I am leaving to India tomorrow for my vacation and so will have limited time to respond to your queries.
I think all your approval will be just around the corner. But please don't stop what you are doing about writing to senator and the rest of the stuff. Guys, even though I have never meet any of you, I know the pain you are going through. I will certainly pray for all for a faster relief by going to the temple, chruch or mosque in India. Good luck guys. Please don't lose hope. Looks like something good has started to happen at PBEC

Sorry GUYS
Sorry Guys,
Talked to my lawyer, they made a mistake in sending me a email saying that mine was approved. It was for someone else from 2001 (I think). At least I had few minutes of JOY. SORRY!

Contacted CBS news - 60 minutes today
Hi
This is follow up to my last post where I had mentioned about contacting the TV channels , so they can show the mess in PBEC & further on retrogession which is affecting the whole legal immigrant working class.
I have contacted CBSnews - 60 mints today & have send them all the details.
Lets hope for the best. I also knew someone trying to contact NBC - dateline, any updates on that one ?
I will also contact 20-20 on abc & try sending them the details.I'm sure someone will come to our rescue soon .
Thanks

Guys,
It is not enough by just saying "Way to Go" or "Thank you for doing this" when other people are trying to contact senators and TV stations.
I think it is time for every one to contact your favorite TV stations/shows such as 20-20 or 60 mins. Remember all it takes is 10 mins of your time to send a email or call, as TV shows will not spend time and make a show if the request comes from 1 person. A topic/Request is more powerful when it comes from a set of people who are affected.
I am sending a letter to those shows, I suggest you send the request too.
Below are the links spend some time by typing a short email.

For once, I was proven wrong by the BEC...
When I received my 45d letter Oct 7th, I forecasted a potential approval for Apr 2006. Well, yesterday, my lawyer called me with the good news.. My LC was approved on Oct 26th and was received Nov 14th at her office. My guess is that if you're a 2001 case and you receive your 45d letter, your case will be processed almost immediately (as a reminder, my PD is Oct 2001 and my case never made it to Regional).
My lawyer told me that she'd file my I140 and wait a little for the I485 since the cut-off date is still Mar-01. I'd appreciate any comments on what's involved in the next stage and I wish you all good luck with your cases.
See you soon in I140/485 boards.

Dear Sir or Madam
I wish to introduce myself as XXXX. I am an Asian-Indian and came to this country in October 1999 on an H1B visa. I am a Software Professional and I have been working in the USA by paying my taxes on time. My only goal is to get better quality of life and provide the best for my family. In doing this I have always been a law abiding person and never breached any laws in this country. In this process I have always maintained my legal status and I have been trying to get my ‘GREEN CARD” thru my employer
Due to delay in labor certifications from labor department & then due to the visa numbers unavailability, people like me might get only get green cards after 10 more years. In reality & logically this process should not exceed 12-24 months? The GC labor processing is killing our day to day life. We are not able to take major decisions like buying home, establish business for spouse or investing in economy in stocks etc.
As a legal, tax-paying and productive member of society, my career and working status is stalled by this seemingly never ending unfair wait in the American legal immigration system and is very discouraging and possibly detrimental to the interest of the American global economy in the 21st century.
I request you to look at the whole community like us who are highly skilled, peace loving and helping US economy to grow
It’s almost 3 years for me now. I would appreciate if you could help people like me, who having been waiting for so long now. Please contact me for any details. There are many suffering like me & can be contacted if you look up www.immigrationportals.com
Note – I have left voicemail on 212-975-3247 explaining the issue, the whole working legal immigrant community will be highly indebted if you could air these issues & probably that might awaken the right authorities to look into the details & do something.
Attached letter send to Leticia Sierra from the labor department to address the labor certification delay issues.
Thanks and Have a nice day.
Sincerely

Breath-Taking House Voting Schedules and Need for Contact with the Members of the Hou
11/14/2005: Breath-Taking House Voting Schedules and Need for Contact with the Members of the House within Today and Tomorrow
The House is scheduled to adjourn after the some voting activities between tomorrow evening and Friday evening, November 18, 2005 for the Thanksgiving break. Currently, no voting activities are scheduled on the House floor until and after the first week of December 2005, once the House misses to vote for H.R. 4241 before the Thanksgiving! Besides, there is no roll call scheduled for any bills or resolutions today and the earliest voting is not expected until tomorrow evening. Accordingly, today and tomorrow are the critical dates for the businesses, schools, and immigration supporters to contact en masse the members of the House so that this bill is passed within this week. The House is under political pressure to act on the deficit reduction bill (H.R. 4241). Please act now!!
