Actually we were called for interview at the local uscis, : My RD was Aug-17-2007 and the ND is Oct-15-2007. The DAO - District Adjudication Offcier gave me a heart attack saying that we are not eligible for GC as the cut-off date was 17-Aug and we were out of the window. Then I politely explained her, and then she looked at the RD and said that we would be fine. Also I called USCIS last week, and told that I filed on Aug, one rep said that they go by ND, I called again and the other rep said that "by ND". Not sure, may be uscis itself is not sure.
Anyhow, is it advisable to take an infopass now (i.e) before september . Wouldn't it be better to visit uscis office in september, so that we could strongly say that "We are current, and could something be done about our case".
I'm afraid that, if we go to uscis now saying that "We will be current in Sep", the uscis people might ask us come back again in Sep. And remember, we cannot have two consecutive infopass within 45 day. So what do you suggest?
Take the info pass is the best way for your solution. Best of Luck dude.

I guess My interview didn't go as expected.
1) I reached the office an hour early.
2) After waiting,they did security check and let us in
3) Then the lady who was assigned my case, came and took us into her room
4) Oath, etc
5) She then started asking for Birth cert, Marriage Cert, kids birth certi, 140 approval copy.
6) Then she pulled a file (which was labelled DOS Visa bulletins) and spent around 15 mins on Oct 2007 bulletin.
7) Then asked us who filed your 485..you did your self or your employer did..we said employer.
8) Then she said, something is not right..per Oct 2007 bulleting Visa's are unavailable so yours was not filed properly.
9) Then I said, ours was filed in Aug 8th 2007. She insisted the receipt date is oct 2007..then we showed her our 485 reciept.
10) Then she thanked us and started looking at Aug 2007 visa bulletin. and said, even then in Aug 2007 EB2 was U, so yours was not properly filed.
11) I told her, There was an interim Memo released by USCIS that they will accept application until Aug-17 2007 based on July 2007 visa bulletin
12) She said she will look at DOS bulletins
13) After 10 mins she said, she cant find any such memo..and said, since there is no evidence with her, she has to deny our case based on "Improper filing when PD was not current"
14) Then I said, if PD was not current, wouldn't TSC return the application denying on the spot? Why would they accept the application?
15) She said, you would think so..but they accept many times..so we are told to verify all the time
16) THen said, she believes us but for process, she needs evidence and said she will look into further and then make a judgment.
17) We had no choice and we were over the interview. we were little disappointed though
18) After coming home, I realized she took all I-94s and we got panicked..because if 485 is getting denied and I-94s are gone, how do we prove our legal status, so we thought of going back..then I thought, if have to go anyway, then I should take a print out of Interim Memo
19) I went back an hour later with the print out
20) I told security that, we had finished our interview and officer forgot to return our I-94..they insisted that we shud take infopass and they wont allow anyone to go back..I had to really argue with them (I decided I have nothing to loose..anyway 485 is screwed and so stood there asking them to let me in)
21) After consistent nagging, the security guy took our passports, interview response letter(After interview if your app doesn't get appproved they willgive a kind of reciept saying u attended the interview..blahblah) and went in
22) Came back and told me to go in since the officer wants more details from you (I thought this was a miracle)
23) I went inside, and after a while officer came back. We apologized and told her that we came back for I-94s..she said they will retain and wont return..We told her that we are not using EAD and we are still on H1B..she said she will give back..
then she asked, I am sure you didnt come back for I-94 alone, did you get any document?
24) We showed her the memo.
25) She read that and said I am glad you came back..this clears everything out..I will run this by my supervisor and will see if we can adjust status today
26) We waited for 2 hrs and then she took us inside.
27) Asked our passports (to stamp...really)
28) Then she looked into the computer to get the visa #.
29) The we noticed a changed in her face and then she quickly turned into a folder of current VISA bulletin..we said..oh..no..not again.
30) The officer said, per visa bulletin u r current and ur PD is dec 2005..there is no reason for system not to allocated a visa #..
31)She tried for 10-15 mins and finally gave up..said she cant stamp in the passport without allotting the visa number..said sorry..I cant do anything..I will follow up with DOS ppl and will let you know in a week or so.
32) The reason she gave is, when she tried to allot the visa, she got a message, "cut off date not established". I have no idea what this means.
hmmm....still keeping fingers crossed..this is nothing short of a car race.

Yes, it is indeed a stressful time. If your receive date by the center where your case is processed (which may be different than what is printed RD for July07 filers) before Aug 30'07 for TSC, and Sep15'07 for NSC, you can definitely expect your case to be preadjudicated and waiting for visa in sequence of your PD. This should translate soon into a good news for you. However, it does not mean that everybody else whose PD will be current in Sept will be left high and dry. A lot of cases (but not all) beyond the published dates may also be waiting in the preadjudicated que. Note that published dates are of June 30. Once preadjudicated cases are exhausted, "random" pattern seen last year might begin as then there is nothing waiting in sequence of PD.

I love your holier than thou condescending attitude. You probably break some law everyday ! Don't tell me you have never been speeding. You probably didn't get caught !
I shouldn't even be replying to your post, but I'll bite and take the bait.
I didn't break the law knowingly, I did come here legally. I just happened to fall in love with someone and moved to her state. It's too bad it didn't work out, however I have maintained legal status after leaving the country and re-entering, back in '04. Look at the chronology.
Please try to offer constructive criticism or information. If you don't have any, move on.
I am on your side. This person seems to be a saint and talking about legal immigrants as if you are and illegal. He's an A**.

GCStatus,
Please stop using condescending remarks. I have been reading all your posts and your tone is going from bad to worst. It is not possible to place all the threads on the home page. We make a decision to put threads on the home page that we believe are important for our effort. If you feel otherwise, that is ok. But it is not ok for you to use derogatory language. If you feel so passionate, why don't you start your organization and spend your time, energy and resources and advocate for the cause instead of posting derogatory messages for others. It is very easy to fire when the gun is on someone else shoulder. We understand and share the frustration with green card delays, but that does not give you license to use derogatory language. Everyday there is new thread asking for update, leadership, direction etc. It is not practical to reply to every such post on this forum. That too does not give you license to use derogatory language. In last over 2.5 years we have answered many thousands questions in forums, emails and phone calls. I have heard many a times from my fellow team mates that not once did anyone receive a Thank you note from someone after that someone was fully able to resolve the situation after receiving reply from my colleagues at IV. None of us spend time on this cause to receive a Thank you note, however, posts like yours makes us wonder that are we a community of thankless educated immigrants who are so obsessed with our individual case that all that we want is instant gratification to exactly know the current status of our green cards, without which automatically IV is at fault. Just so that you know, people spend 30 sometimes 40 hours a week over the period of years, just to read a post from someone like you. We received a call at 12:30am yesterday from someone asking about changing to another company because his current employer was not being fair. So when you mock, please make it clear that you are not the one standing in the line of fire and you are not the one who wants to stand in the line of fire. You just wants to be the one to mock and ridicule. If you are serious about taking the baton, please let us know your phone number and we will post it on the website so that people can call you when they have a question. Lets talk about passing the baton, how about we start from posting your phone number on the website, lets see how you take that challenge. No one is paid to work on IV. People spend time on this effort out of their good-will and passion for the cause. So please be respectful towards others for their efforts. And please stop being a pain in the neck and talk some sense if you are serious about picking up the baton. Email us your phone number and you will see it on the website within an hour.
Now its time for you to go to all the forums of the world and say that IV Admin is rude and dictatorial or whatever.
All the best,

I just want to generate enough internet chatter so that the issue of substitute labor will come on CIS radar. I know for sure that a huge fraud was perpetrated during July 07 fiasco by some unscrupulous consulting companies who sold pre-approvevd labors like frozen pizzas. Just heat and eat.
And I also know for sure that IV has gained enough publicity that CIS folks might be tempted to check it now and then. May be they will take notice of this thread and start investigation of all the subst labors.
I surely am pissed as hell on somebody who came to this country in 2007, and got his/her GC by paying money for some 1999 pre approved labor. I will fight on.
Before creating further rifts first fill in your profile and then blabber...

Anybody please comment. I have done some hard work here. Do you like the idea ? should we go for it ?
Hi bsbawa10,
You have put some good effort here and I think the posters make a point. But like you said, we need a substantial letter to accompany these.
We might need to take a bit of time to re-organize and pull this effort together. The Oct. VB news has been quite a damper - I came very close to not logging into IV today - I needed some time away from all this to collect my thoughts. It is likely that several people are doing the same.
IV core, in addition to the letters and calls to Congress persons to support HR5882, what else can we do? Several small efforts will likely not cut it for us. We need to pull our efforts together towards one single powerful protest. Any ideas from our advisors?

I agree that this topic should be researched, and we should have all possible statistics/data on it.
I tried to locate on immigration.com, but I couldn't find the information. I will continue to look.
If Mr Chandu, or Mr Unitednations could quickly locate the links, and post them here, I (we) would be greatful.
People in this forum are about 1.5 years behind in the understanding of retrogression (all of these issues have been dissected, diseminated, corroborated, etc.); how the law works; what visa bulletin said in November 2005. dissecting numbers, etc.
There is much deeper understanding of this on immigration.com since it has been going on for a while. Chandu is a member there and has been following it and participating on it.
I would think something as important as this; one would research it to death and get all possible statistics on it. All these things have already been laid out in great detail very long ago.
Don't know why you are irritated??? Maybe you should research it with the law and the various statistics by uscis, dol, dos and see what conclusions you can come up with.
