Some more data points to that calculation:
There are 44 I-485 adjudicators at NSC (an NSC IIO mentioned that to me a few months ago) at the conservative rate of 6 apps/visa numbers (EB only) per adjudicator per day it will be 264 visa numbers per day just at NSC.
Double that and you reach 528 per day at NSC + TSC only.
Not including district office and consular numbers.
Say 600 EB approvals per day * 21 working days of August would make it 12600 EB approvals in August.
If ones multiplies that number for 12 months we reach 151,200 EB visas...which is so close to the number that was approved last year ! (Includes numbers from FB overflow)
1% to 5% of I485 applicants register in . This figure 1% to 5% is quoted at several places and in absence of any other data, I am using this data. If we take median value of 3% worldwide EB2 approvals are around 50 and so TSC+NSC approved 1600 cases in four working days of August (400 per day).
Median value is OK for reference, couple of places, it is quoted that 20,000 GC numbers are available for EB2. For 40 working days in Aug/Sep, it averages to 500 GC per day.

I am having some trouble understanding it. In 2010, they have only allocated 2400 visas to China EB3? That is a wastage of 3300-2400 = 900 visas ??
Not necessarily, this data is 3 months old I think. The last quarter allocations could have closed the gap.

they will not "do away" with comprehensive..... if it fails this year they will bring it up again next year and next..... there is no room for piecemeal...... if there were.... they would do it after cir failed in 2006, but they didn't..... they could do after cir failed in 2007, but again they didn't...... or they could do piecemeal in 2008, 9 or 10..... the fact they didn't .... it just tells us that we ought to learn something here..... there is nothing called piecemeal & there will never be anything called piecemeal in this leg of immigration reform, other than our own fantasy world.... so get over it...... there is only 1 way to do it.... cir
lets start the undocumented bashing party now......
I would agree with you on this. However, a failed attempt is better than no attempt.
Problem is, politically we (legal immigrants) have no leverage and so only thing we can count on is to piggyback our agenda into CIR; whether we like or not like undocumented is a "secondary issue". Only potential damage that could occur to legal immigration (from CIR) is chocking up the system; and therefore, we have to include that in our efforts else legal immigration will be a history for about a century.
Legislative relief is the only possible relief for EB3 India; else people who are already waiting for almost a decade will have another decade of wait; simply rediculous.

No, it is not legal.
I just checked and it seems that you are right.
It is against immigration rules to work in any form or manner on an H-4 visa. The immigration rules clearly state that H4 visa status holders can only do voluntary work.

My husband received a �Transfer Notice� for his I-485 from TSC. This is what the notice says.
"Preliminary Processing of the application has been completed, and it has been transferred to USCIS-NBC, Lee's summit , MO 64064. The office will notify you when they schedule an interview on the application."
Here is brief history.
My PD is July-04 in EB2. I am the primary applicant and I am on H1. My husband was on H4 and now he is on EAD. My I-485 was filed in NSC, and then moved to TSC. Here are my ?s.
1. What is meant by �Preliminary Processing of the application has been completed�? What is completed actually?
2. I did not receive any such notice so far, is it quite normal?
3. Came to US on L1 blanket visa and didn�t submit the approval notices for my husband, since there is no separate approval notices for the dependents coming on L blanket visa. May be is it, because of this?
4. My husband had a DUI in March 2003, and that case was closed. It was a misdemeanor, and not a felony. Is this notice because of my husband�s DUI record?
5. Also, I raised �Expedite Service Request� twice, because of my husband�s serious heart condition, and faxed the medical letter to uscis as a proof , however this request got rejected both the times. May be, is it to verify the medical condition?.
6. Will something related to my AOs be decided based on how we answer.
7. Can I accompany my husband for the interview?
I am really concerned about the interview. Please let me know what you know about this.
Thanks.

Yeah, I would have liked to apply a year ago but at that time my employer and I had a different arragnment. Anyway, Hellomms, you are talking about me getting H1B extended but to do all that I have to submit my PERM application first and I really think it will be difficult to even get through the recruitment process at this time. DOL is already talking about watching more carefully and many EB2 cases get audited regardless. Anyway, givien the details I gave in my first post, what would you guys advise, go to Canada and reset the H1B clock or try to force PERM now?
Please advise! Thanks!

Fitz,
Following is some clarification that I got from my Lawyer..
1) Will there be any problem if I am not able to make it back on Oct-1st, due to any unforeseen reason, If 485 is already received by USCIS and pending?
a) You need to be physically present here when I-485 is filed. After that, it doesn't matter where you are. At some point you may be scheduled for fingerprinting, but you will likely have months for that.
2) If we leave on TN after filing AOS is there any chance that USCIS will consider the AOS request abandoned even if we return on Oct-1st in H status?
a) An I-485 can't be abandoned simply because you left the USA
3) Once we file 485 do we need to wait for the receipt before traveling abroad?
a) No.

I left the job last month as I was getting better opportunity. I gave notice period to my employer and he was being cool at that time but then I did not get salary credited in my account for last month when I called my employer and inquired about that, he said he has some dues invoices to client and can not pay until he gets money from client. Can you please suggest me what should I do in this case? My employer said it will take 3-4 months to get those invoices clear.
Please see I am on H1B and never been on bench or out of status.
Get a labor attorney, send a letter of claim to the employer, and request action within 30 days. If no response and amount is under $5000 then go to small claims court, otherwise file a grievance with your state's labor department.

Saturday, March 21, 2009
Washington (PTI): In a blow to Indian professionals, the U.S. on Friday announced additional measures for hiring of foreign specialists under the H-1B visa work programme making it more difficult for the companies receiving federal aid money to hire overseas workers.
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the measures to enforce the provisions of the new Employ American Workers Act (EAWA) of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, which prohibits hiring of H-1B visa holders by American companies who receive the federal aid money. Indian nationals account for bulk of the coveted H-1B visas.
These measures come about ten days before the USCIS starts accepting petitions for new H-1B visas for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009.
"Under this legislation any company that has received covered funding and seeks to hire new H-1B workers is considered an 'H-1B dependent employer'.
All H-1B dependent employers must make additional attestations to the U.S. Department of Labour (DOL) when filing the Labour Condition Application (LCA)," the USCIS said.
"USCIS reminds petitioners that a valid LCA must be on file with DOL at the time the H-1B petition is filed with USCIS," it said.
This means that if the petitioner indicates on its petition that it is subject to the EAWA, but the Labour Condition Application does not contain the proper attestations relating to H-1B dependent employers, USCIS will deny the H-1B petition, the statement said.
Besides, the USCIS is revising Form I-129, Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker, to include a question asking whether the petitioner has received covered funding.
USCIS is expected to post this revised form on its web site in time for the next cap subject to H-1B filing period that begins on April l.
While USCIS encourages petitioners, whenever possible, to use the most up-to-date form, USCIS will not require use of the revised form in time for the start of the filing period for fiscal year 2010, it said.
At the same time, USCIS urged H-1B petitioners who have already prepared packages for mailing using the previous Form I-129 (January 2009 version) to complete only the page in the revised version of the Form I-129 (March 2009) which has the new question on EAWA attestation requirements and to file this single page with the prepared package.
USCIS said EAWA applies to any Labour Condition Application (LCA) and/or H-1B petition filed on or after February 17, involving any employment by a new employer, including concurrent employment and regardless of whether the beneficiary is already in H-1B status.
The EAWA also applies to new hires based on a petition approved before February 17, 2009, if the H-1B employee had not actually commenced employment before that date.
However, EAWA does not apply to H-1B petitions seeking to change the status of a beneficiary already working for the employer in another work-authorised category. It also does not apply to H-1B petitions seeking an extension of stay for a current employee with the same employer.

If every state was a different country, most of us would not have been here but at the borders fighting each other. India has progressed because of its secularism and diversity. We all would have been either fanatics or supressed by religion as most states would have religious heads governing it.
