The Process of giving Birthright citizenship is a law called Jus Soli(14th Amendment) which was implemented in 1900's . Numbersusa and others are fighting to change the Jus soli to jus sanguinis which gives citizenship based on the child's parents Status to reduce the "Numbers".India Abolished Jus Soli in 1987 and dosent offer Birthright citizenship. I think going this Route to discuss the possibility to fight for parents naturalisation based on child's status will make us no different from Illegal Immigrants.
belive it or not, I knew that. I mean the part about the US, not the part about India as I don't hail from there.
The point that I was trying to make but did not state clearly enough was that I feel that when one has a political agenda whether it is pro or anti immigration, children should be kept out of it. Labeling children like anchor babies is dehumanizing. I believe that when kids are involved, as human beings, everyone should always be concerned about their best interest rather than what our political view.
This is why I hate the term anchor babies. The antis are willing to even dehumanize kids if it fits with their political view.

if 110,786 cases are due to retro...
then these cases are either (2nd China/India, 3rd, and other workers)??
considering 140,000 visa numbers available, and other catagories being current, only portions these retro cases will get visa numbers by this year..
no hope for PD advancement???

I understand that your intention is to get heard. I appreciate your effort at writing letter. However writing to the president will not help us much. Here is why:
In the USA, infact for that matter in most democracies, Laws are made by elected representatives unless it is an executive order to grant an immediate relief.
The composition and powers of the House and the Senate are established in Article One of the Constitution. The major power of the House is to pass federal legislation that affects the entire country, although its bills must also be passed by the Senate and further agreed to by the President before becoming law (unless both the House and Senate re-pass the legislation with a two-thirds majority in each chamber). The total number of voting representatives is fixed by law at no more than 435.[1] (United States congressional apportionment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_congressional_apportionment))
So, In our case, the president at the most can sympathise with our cause and the hardships we face because of the limbo, But he cannot really help until there is a bill that passes both the house and the senate.
So, Can I suggest that it will be even more worthwhile if you contact your congressman/woman and go meet them. We need them to understand our plight and anguish.
We all need to go meet our lawmakers, educate them.

Thanks chanduv23! I used the template he provided this morning (with some editing) to email senators from my state of residence.
Guys, please use this template to email senators from your state.
Also, please contribute to IV. I just did today, and believe me, you will feel better for doing so...
This is not just for you and me, but also for those who will come after us. Also, this is not a battle just to sue USCIS/DOS, but a war we need to fight on multiple fronts:
1) First and foremost, we the immigrant community need to join hands and fight as one cohesive group.
2) Sue the government agencies for damages/violation of law/precedents due to the revised visa bulletin
3) Get this matter the attention it deserves in the media
4) Try and get congress to intervene in this matter, and also introduce and pass legislation that will fix the broken employment based immigration system
5) Request corporate sponsorship. Since employers spent money on this fiasco as well, they will have a vested interest in pursuing this as well.
The main thing, however, is funds. IV needs funds to fight for us. Each of us has already spent 100's (many even 1000's) of $ trying to get ready to file our I-485's. So even if 10,000 members contribute just $100 each, it will be $1 mil. I am sure each of us can at least spare that much. It is a small price to pay for liberation from this GC mess for all of us....
With ~15,000 members already, and hopefully some serious $$$$$$ raised, IV will be a force to be reckoned with. No one will be able to treat us with such utter disdain ever again...

Raju, true indeed.....
I have noticed for several cases in here, where all the 3 applications are sent to the california service center....and CSC processes the EAD and AP and forwards the 485 app. back to NSC / TSC for further processing. The positive thing is that CSC is quick in processing AP/EAD....thus in a way this situation can prove to be lucky for all those whose applications are forwarded from NSC to CSC.
I believe USCIS is trying to comlete the receipting job from all the Service centres.
so you wont be sruprised if folks started reporting their receipt numbers start with EAC (for Vermont).
Let USCIS do their job of receipting everyone who filed in July-Aug 2007.
Ultimately processing will be done at USCIS NSC and TSC for I-140 and I-485 due to their bi-specialization program.
So no worry be happy...Support IV

Consulare processing means, you have to go out of the country to your home country and over there you have an interview for an immigrant visa. If approved you come to the states with that visa and receive GC here. If denied, consular processing CANNOT be appealed. The decision is usually final. When you do I485, whcih is adjustment of status, you stay in the US and if gets denied you CAN appeal the decision. To be eligible for adjustment of status in the U.S. one must show he/she never violated non-immigrant status until the I485 was filed(since last entry).
If you file I140 while being on F1, that could be taken as "violation of non-immigrant" status. It is advisable to change to a dual intent visa before filing for I485. Such visas are H1 and L1.
I am not attorney so don't take my answers for granted.

I would not recomen contacting Mr Savage. He does not appear to be the person that would help our cause.
He is openly anti-latino, openly calls for burning of mexican flag etc..
why do you think he would support legal immigration?
I'm not concerned about he being anti-latino but he is anti-immigrant he feels immigration is destroying the American Culture.
See below
These are the candid words of Michael Savage, the son of immigrants, whose love for America and trenchant insights into the leftist propaganda that threatens our way of life have made him a giant in talk radio. In this book, written in his muscular, electrifying style, Savage warns that our country is losing its identity, becoming a victim of political correctness, unmonitored immigration, and socialistic ideals: "When it comes to our culture, we're being told by liberals to let the illegal invaders as well as the legal newcomers redefine and reshape our culture into their image."

G-joe are you kidding--this looks like a vision to be accomplished in 5 years.
I guess it will not move even a day because they are processing citizenship applications. Please read the yahoo link above in which it is clearly mentioned that they have pulled the permanent residence resourses to process the citoizenship cased.

I was just quoting that there may be legitimate reasons but this is not a good reason...
Sorry, but I have to disagree. I don't think there is such thing as "legitimate" reasons to take your own life. What is more legitimate that the other is something very subjective, and if you believe there even exist "legitimate" reasons, then you can always fall into the mistake of thinking that something minor, which you can easily overcome, is "legitimate" just because of your current state of mind and spirit.

Hi everybody,
I fail to understand how L1's are getting Green cards in 6-8 months. I have done my masters here and am waiting forever for my GC and here I met someone who has come here as a BPO devlpt manager for an Indian company and in 1 year after coming to the US gets his GC after 6 months of application. He is just a BCOM from India. On top of it he told me many of his friends in the same company and other Indian companies have got GC's in less than 6 months. I dont get it. On top of it his wife can work here on L2. How can they file under EB1 - isnt that meant for doctors and Phds? He is not even intelligent which is the saddest part. Here we are with education and exp and contributed much more to the govt here than they have and we wait for bulletins every month hoping it would move at least 15 days, getting our h1's extended everytime and dreading to go to India because of visa stamping each year. This is such a sad situation. Should not the DOL do something about this.
Regards

That, and the AZ State Labor Statutes, were my points exactly.

TV25,
1) You were in H4 at first when U came to this country.
2) Then you were sponsored(H1) by some company.
3) you worked for 3 months.
4) went overseas to get stamped(visa) for H1. But they put you on hold for administrative process.
5) You decided to return with H4 visa that was valid at that time. (although technically you are not supposed to enter using H4 since you already started working on H1)
6) You came back to US on H4.
7) Get a letter from USCIS that h1 is denied.
What surprised me the whole time was, why did the consulate not cancel the existing H4 visa, since your status already changed?
That's the first thing they do, when you go for visa stamping...they cancel without prejudice, and issue a new visa....even if its going thru a administrative process, they would still cancel it, cause the assumption is you are going to get the new visa once the process is complete.
See that's what I exactly said in my last post. The COS that is obtained in the US is a "privelege" it is by no means supposed to over ride what the consulate decides in terms of the visa stamp. That is exactly the reason some of the applications get a H1 approval without the I-94. This is done because they are in no position to verify a lot of things that the consulate can verify. If you have a valid H4 stamp and you want to get back into H4 status instead of applying for another COS, you can go out of the country and enter using H4 and your status will change to H4.
Anyway, like I said in our case I asked the IO behind the counter in vancouver if she can use H4 to enter the US his response was "It depends on the officer at the POE ". Guys I spent a good two days researching this topic while we were stuck in vancouver. Basically you can come back but your status is reverted back to H4. You are not supposed to work once you are in the US. In our case we immediately applied for another COS prem processing within the US and it got approved. My wife again changed jobs last year on H1 and that got approved too.
In this case, the misrepresentation of facts in her H1 app is something the poster might want to get clarified. She should be fine.
