Since 2000, a total of 182,694 work-based visas have not been given out because the immigration agency had fallen behind in processing applications, according to the 2007 report of the immigration agency�s ombudsman.
as per ny times report...
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/06/us/06visa.html?_r=1&hp&oref=slogin
This number is down to 132K as 50K were captured by the nursing/medical lobby probably in 2004 or 2005. Google for more info

A# is either someting that you get by the following ways:
1. If you were a student and were on OPT the EAD card had an A#
2. Sometimes when your I-140 is approved it comes with A# (NOT ALWAYS NO ONE KNOWS WHY/WHY NOT)
3. When your I-485 is accepted most likely you will get a new A#
So if you have 1 or 2 use it else leave it blank.
That's your alien number and it's given to you when your I140 is approved. See my post above.

Hi Raj,
Thanks for your advice, it definitely helps.
I'm currently working with my lawyers on an appeal. If that works (fingers crossed) all well and good, but I'm also renewing my H1B immediately, to protect myself. This is not the time to be selling my house & committing financial suicide, as well as moving my family around.
My attorney also feels the EAD/AP might continue (under certain circumstances - he's not sure, but is checking) to remain valid until their expiry date. If so, I have until Oct 2010 on my EAD, but its still better to be safe with an H1B.
My I-140 denial is for a somewhat obscure reason - I used to be in the merchant navy, then worked in various management positions ashore until coming to the US in 2005. My professional certification was considered to be equivalent to a BSc degree by WES, but USCIS now want details of college attendance, etc. When I tried to explain in the RFE that it is only equivalent to a degree, and my job is based on 23 years of work experience at sea and in shipmanagement companies, plus a professional Master's license , they ignored those details. All very frustrating, but there is nothing I can do. Hopefully, someone more reasonable will read the appeal and set things right. My category remains unchanged at EB3.
I hope your own issues have all been solved by now.
All the best

thanks i hope everything will be ok..one last question what are my chances to have a consular processing?of course i don't want to leave the country and issue my h1b there cause im already here.thanks
USCIS will not approve your COS because you have no status, rather they may approve a petition for consular processing. Even if USCIS approves your H1B petition for consular processing, you only have 10% probability to stamp your H1B because
1 - you used your tourist visa to find work
2 - you have overstayed your I-94

Thanks so much sumggymba, just one more thing if you know. Do they file eb2 ?
One of my cousin works in oracle and he has mentioned to me that oracle is not filing in EB2 category (they used to file before), not sure is it for every one or depends on team to team or person to person.
I would advice you better check in advance as soon as you have job confirmation

I'm from ROW, my spouse and me both have EAD and AP. But our I-485 is pending. My spouse isn't working but would be travelling to Germany next year while I won't be travelling with her.
1. Is a good idea just to apply only EAD renewal for me and AP for her to save some bucks?
2. How soon will the service center accept the renewal applications before they expire?
3. What if I file these renewal by myself and don't use a lawyer. Will it make a difference?
4. What paper work do I need to submit with my applications for renewal either by online or manual?
5. What are the implications of not having to apply EAD for my spouse. Is she going to be out of status once her EAD expire?
Experts please advice.
It is better to keep EAD and AP current, instead of letting them expire to save a few bucks. Renewing something expired raises eyebrows. Renewal instructions come with EAD and AP. There is no need of a lawyer. Renewals are simple process.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.
You mentioned your friend has added his wife to his green card application. Can you please let me know which Center (Texas or Nevada) is processing her I-485.
You are right. It would take approximately 9-12 months before she can get her GC. A friend of mine in the same situation. He added his wife to the GC application last year when PD was current. He got his GC in August 2010, but his wife is still waiting for the GC. It all depends on 485 processing dates and FBI name check etc....but she will get EAD/AP in few months....

The EM immigration is just a mess....Basically a bunch of congressmen discussed about it and created some rules!
Labor certification is the most ridiculous thing! I-140, I-485 blah blah...., just like the sub-prime mortgage mess these are paper work mess created by US lawmakers. Their intention was good, but the in reality nothing makes sense. I wish the Immigration committe invites H1 people and discuss with them the real issues just like how they speak with businesses.
I think, we should follow the EU way. Do all the stupid paperwork before you bring anyone to US. Once someone is here he/she should have a green card (atleast a temp green card). After 3 years, the temp card should be converted to a permanent green card. What is going on here is just "Modern day slavery"! H1 B people are exploited by Employers/Lawyers.
We dress nice, have cars, sometime homes, but we also have a virtual (invisible) handcuffs which noone sees!
I am just sick and tired!

saimrathi, I am in the same boat too, got the 693 supplement form last week from DR's office, but we filed 485 application in july 2nd week.this is not our mistake. do we need to worry about this ?
I recd supplementary forms to I-693 for my wife and I from the Civil Surgeon earlier this week. Along with the supplementary forms I recd two envelopes (one addressed to me, and the other one to my wife) that had DO NOT OPEN written on them. I sent these to my lawyer's office.
I called the doctor�s office and this is what I found out. Apparently, when the doctor had first given us the sealed envelopes (in June 2007) she didn�t know that the Supplementary form needs to go with the certification she provided us in the sealed envelopes. We sent the sealed envelopes with our Concurrent I-140 = 485 application recd at NSC on 7/2/07 (as per UPS). Now, some of her clients have recd letters from USCIS asking for the Supplementary form, so she has sent the same out to all of her clients regardless of them getting a letter from USCIS. I hope our application doesn�t get rejected due to this; no checks cashed as of today.
My lawyer's response: No the application should not get rejected because of this...however we will submit the supp doc's report to the USCIS when we get the receipt notices.
Anyone else in the same boat? Is this something to worry about? See signature for more info...

This is the EB1 the usage for the last 14 years
06 = 36,960
05 = 64.731
04 = 31,291
03 = 14,544
02 = 34,452
01 = 41,801

99 = 14,898
98 = 21,408
97 = 21,810
96 = 27,501
95 = 17,339
94 = 21,053
93 = 21,114
The limit was at least 40.040 for each FY. In FY 06 it was 41,170. As you can see the limit has been reached twice in the last 14 years.
I went to REC (one of the top 20 schools in India) did my Mastrs in Full scholarship and have International papers for IEEE + Few Algorithms that have been presented at Int. Conferences,( I could not attend the conf. in Paris since I did not want to go and get stamped and go through all the hassel- Go figure). I am an Ideal candidate for EB1 but my lawyer said there is a 50/50 chance for further enquiry and it will only delay the process.
I know, I know but trust me, I was a University topper in Probablity and AI theories and I decided to chicken-out.
Not because I am afraid of enquiries, I just dont want to raise any flags. I want to keep working, Hopefully get my GC within few* years and then prove myself .
I applied under EB2 only because I don't want any enquiries and I know these POS lawyers will only delay the RFE's.
Anyway, I was just frustated, sorry about this rage but just needed an outlet.
People will only file under EB1 when A) They are not from India/China and They are not afraid to go and face any flags.
& /OR B) They have good lawyer, who is very much prudent and willing to take chances.
Any other theories and welcome

Not sure if it has been posted before but I came across this on Ron Gotcher's site. Someone posted it from a Chinese EB3 website. Scroll to page 46 and you can see the waiting list details for EB3-India. Disclosure - I make no claims to its accuracy so don't flame me :-)

Hi Everyone,
Dont know if anyone thought about this or not.
I know so many people have switched their previous employer who actually filed for GC.
The employer also had the GC cost deducted from the employees salary.
Now my situation is the same.
I no longer work for the previous employer and my offer letter does say that employer will cover the cost of GC.
but what actually happened is something that happened with so many people.
Now since i dont work for that employer is it appropriate to ask the employer to reimburse me the GC cost as it was mentioned in the offer letter that employer will pay for the GC processing?
BTW.. my 485 is filed and i do have my EAD
let me know if someone has more information about it.
