Guys,
I knew Mehul and his family. They migrated to Sweden late January and Mehul passed away peacefully in his sleep on March 2, 2008
Admins, please close/archive this thread. It's painful
May GOD rest his SOUL in peace and gives courage to his family to bear his loss.

Personally, I think I'm beginning to see the shift in attitudes of young Indians now visiting the U.S. - of course, many will be tempted to stay in due course, and most of us here do truly appreciate what this country has to offer.
The point I'm trying to make is the comparative state of the nations (both India and the United States), their respective economies, consumer confidence and hopes of their people, is in fact changing mindsets.
There's no denying that this major shift is well on its way. It's no co-incidence that every single Indian I talked to in the last 2 weeks (temporarily here for education/work/whatever... ) immediately ruled out the idea of making the U.S. their home long-term, or even in the medium/short-term.
In stark contrast, though, the H1B visas do get used up within hours of the visa lottery being opened... but I wouldn't assume all of those wanting to work here for some time on a H1B visa will want to stay back.
Again, I don't have statistics to back up the theory - just anecdotal evidence, with a sampling far too small and based on my own personal experience and conversations...

Give them a year or two more, when they have become comfortable with the american lifestyle and facilities we now take for granted (driving on freeways, easy access to libraries, parks to go for a run etc), and they will be probably singing a different tune.
I came here eight yers ago muttering the same "Will make a few bucks and go back home" line. Still here and living it up :)
I took up running 6 years ago primarily as i was trying to quit smoking, and also, there was a great running track right outside my house (obviously, free for anyone to use). Then I went to Mumbai last year and decided to go for a run, five minutes into the run and i was being chased by 2 dogs (and i don't mean the cops :p). The point i am trying to make here is. There are things in this country that we start taking for granted. lets appreciate it!
Another tip i would suggest to keep your mind occupied is to learn a foreign language. Invest in an Ipod if you do not have one already. Download free podcasts thet teach french,spanish, german etc. Listen to it while running. You are doing two things at the same time, staying fit and learning.
maybe we can have an IV 5K run sometime in the spring if things do not change. just a suggestion..

I feel that because of the preadjudication of July 07 applications, USCIS now has a better idea of the application backlog. They also know that usually at the end of the fiscal year they have EB-1 and ROW EB-2 visas left; they might have therefore decided to finish off the EB-2, 2004 cases, even if it means consuming more than the annually designated 3200 visas early in the fiscal year.
The reason for controlling Priority Dates month by month, is because USCIS does not (or did not) know how many people will become eligible to file I-485 if the dates move by a "X" amount. Once USCIS knows how many I-485 applications it already has in its backlog, Visa Bulletin becomes a mute point.
I suspect USCIS will quickly clear off EB-2, 2004 and will then make the dates "U". Then in early summer it will reevaluate how many visas have got consumed and will likely get consumed in the next few months of 2010, and at that point may move the dates further into 2005.
This is just my feeling...........I hope I am wrong, though, and the dates keep inching forward every month.

How do you know that people with more recent priority dates are getting approved and you have been left out? You know this because these members of IV share this info with you and you are talking about using this info against them.
I won't be surprised if this will discourage people to just silently leave the forum after getting approvals.

I never claimed I'm going to refrain from going ballistic with words when insults are hurled at me! Maintaining high moral standards and bad language usage doesn't always have to be mutually exclusive. Your logic is waaaayyyyyy flawed if you think they are, my friend!
I said "high standards" not "high moral standards" in my first sentence. I can point you to some of your posts when you use 'foul' language even when not attacked.
Coming to your point about F1 status, I can speak for myself that I did come to the US with the intention of going back. I was offered a job while I was still in school and I changed my mind only then.
Allow me to quote your earlier post "I came to this country with the intention of studying and then working,"....sounded like you had the intention of studying and then working before you headed out here. freudian slip ??? :)

ORDER OF CONSIDERATION: just means priority date of primary, which I agree derivative can and must use primary's PD. All I am contesting is about quota.

same status can be EB GC or just GC ?? If it is EB GC then this thread can RIP

Thanks for posting this link. This is a must read on AOS.
This link is for section 245 in TITLE 8 OF CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS (8 CFR) (I think!) . This CFR may have other sections of use for us. For example, there may be section 240 that explains some other GC stage.
Please post a link that is table of contents of CFR. That is, it gives all section titles in CFR: Sec 1, Sec 2, .. Sec 245, Sec 246, ... Thanks!

I am just trying to see if NSC could go past the I-485 received on 06/01/2007. Many folks whose application was received the first day got receipt and receipt#. Is there anyone who applied later and got the receipt or receipt#.

Hi Maag,
I did not land yet. Planning to give away canada PR. Its too much of risk being on AP/EAD. I have too many things on stake in US like Home, Nice Jobs for me and my wife..don't want to risk all that.
As it is i don't think I will ever settle in Canada, i had applied at a time when my US labor was stuck in backlog for almost 5 years but now things have changed and if i ever have to leave US I think I will go back to my home country; as it is after being here for 8 years I don't have energy to start all over again in some new country.
What have you decided? do you know the procedure to get landing fee back?
I am also giving up canada PR, i had also applied at the time my green card process was not moving, also i don't have any job offer as of now in canada, i don't want to leave what's in hand in hope of something similar (can't say better). I don't know procedure to get landing fees back and will soon be working on that.
