You assume taht there's going to be no new backlog created in the coming years..
Atleast in 2010 they did not "create" or add to backlog but instead reduced it by 40K (NET).
The root cause for all this circus, pain and flower campaign is between 2000 -2006 USCIS did not allot all the 140+K available leading to backlog of ~210-230K backlog. One of the main reasons for under utilization was USCIS processing mess .
Good news in the last year or two is those have been fixed and streamlined now. This has lead to better clarity , complete consumption. However, the old backlog still remains and what we are seeing now is healthy net reduction of 40 K .
Given that I do not think , any new backlog will be created . The new applications may increase once the priority gets past 2007 July . But even those, I do not believe will add to the backlog.
Look at the pending applications from China , it is very less . India will also go the same way in next few years . These economies are stronger than decade ago and youngsters are less attracted to US than before .
Ironically , in the next 4-5 years US will finally come up with immigration reform and increase quota, fix existing issues . By that time , all of us would have bailed out and the quotas will go begging for lack of demand .

Did not think about this... By the way, we should open a dialog with the senator to see if he can pass a separate bill just for EB provisions (if there is less opposition for it).

Hi Everyone
A BIG thank you to all those who attended the MD/DC/VA meeting in Rockville . The get together was constructive and i was hoping for few more attendees. For those who attended , i hope IV has inspired members to go and meet the local represetatives in the local offices. IV wil help you with required documentation and talking points if you need help.
Guys those who could not attend today, please make sure you followup with your represtatives and make them aware of your issues to them BEFORE any Immigration bill is discussed on the floor. you need to organize and make your voices heard in DC otherwise even if the CIR happens , it is not a guarantee that all our provisions will be addressed in that. This message is for ALL members ( irrespective of EB2, EB3 etc..)
If you need any help, please contact local chapters or IV admin starsun.
Hope we will get something done this time for EB community
Thanks
Ravi.
I have tried to contact as many as i can in last week and this week. Overall a positive response . hope to see all of the members on sunday .
Thanks

Great posts by all. But still my original question is not replied. Let me repharse it.
When I know that it is going to take 7-10 years for USCIS to even open my I-485 application for adjudication process in the mean time can I work on EAD in whatever position I want and at the time of adjudication join my employer for this future job (for which I-140 is approved) or if it is available at that time then use AC21 provison and start working as a "Programmer Analyst" for a month or so with this new employer and provide EVL from new job?
This is not much clear to me.
I believe since GC is for future job, it is alright to use EAD in the meantime for whatever job (I mean any kind of job even like a chef) as long as I can prove that I have intentions to work with this future employer as soon as my I-485 gets approved. I know my employer will not revoke I-140 any time.
I am asking this because so many people say they have to take a job with the same or similar job description but I believe the point in time is not now but when USCIS approaches the time frame for I-485 adjudication only then.
Please tell me if I am correct or incorrect.

I talked to an officer at the IRS as soon as I received my SSN and he told me it is NOT compulsory to report it to them becos when I do use my SSN if I get a job..the info will automatically go to them.
Did you talk to him of the scenario if you don't use the new SSN for a job?

Last night Senator Durbin introduced a new version of the DREAM Act with a number of changes presumably included to satisfy fence sitters who felt that the bill needed to be further restricted. I've summarized the latest version of the bill which you can find below. Feel free to email me (gsiskind@visalaw.com) if you catch things needing editing. Note a couple of big changes - - eligibility age dropped from 35 to 30 years old - expansion of grounds of ineligibility to include public charge and health grounds - new civics and English testing requirement - proof of payment of...

We are struck in this GC process. No media channel here in this country focuses on our GC backlog and other issues. On the other hand, Media in India can bring rich person in to limelight and demand money out of his weaknesses. Media business is totally doomed, it became puppet to rich and any rich fellow can escape from corporate corruption( Satyam is one such example), crimes, rapes and murders. They can easily manipulate and fool western people and media with such marketing campaigns. Recent bollywood movie 'PeeplyLive' is the simple show case on how media is overacting in India.
Please do not believe in this false news, this is a paid news sponsored by Infosys. the same channel has this also
Top American graduates heading to India for employment!
YouTube - Top American graduates heading to India for employment (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPDHfqpEVD4)
See who is in the interview and which campus they are showing this all the Jorstitution of India.. Sen Schumer called Infosys "Chopshop" so to counter this they just paid the dollars they get from the USA. without much sweat and toil.
Please do not believe in this gimmick!
Journalism has become kind of prostitution in India. now these tech companies want to extend it with US media too.
There is a great deal of resentment and unhappiness among sane and sober people regarding the grand decline in journalism standards in India. TV & Print media has become the monopoly of a few organisations, who, are being financially controlled by foreign organisations , harbouring, ambitions, to radically alter the religious profile of India.

Everytime I start to ask myself or my foreign workers colleagues these questions, the only answer we keep arriving upon is that the business lobby along with foreign business lobbies want cheap labor. Companies may choose to outsource it, but it is even more attractive to bring labor here where intellectual assets are more tightly monitored and schedules are more easily managed. Net result, win/win for the business and lose/lose for US citizens.
Im just saying....
that is your version of reality. You are gathering evidence to prove your assertions. All this anecdotal 'evidence' and you performing these field surveys tell you what you want your mind to listen. Maybe it is time to take up the issue to your company's HR. Why are your foreign worker colleagues telling you that they are cheap labor? and when they made that assertion, you took it lying down ?
The current economy has many IT professionals out of work. Yet, the visa workers remain. Students graduating in engineering in top US universities cannot get jobs. Why?
do you have a source which you can quote or is it the same mysterious anecdotal evidence ?

Avi,
what did you mean - 'received july 6' ? was your 485 application sent back ? was it processed and rejected or simply returned without any processing ? were the checks deposited ?
Please explain with more clarity.
"received" by them :)
Robin Williams gave his autograph on that it seems! :D

Hi all,
I have got my Labor and I-140, waiting for 485. I have completed 5 years 2 months from my 6 yrs of H1B. Can I change organization now and use Labor and I-140 as a basis for 3 years extension?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
