Graduated from college last year, finally found a job that I really like. Currently on OPT. Just curious to know how long will it take for employer to apply for labor and I-140.
I know most of you are thinking - "are you mad, esp with current gc situation? " the thing is I like it here. My relatives and friends are here. I am hoping that with so many people stuck in the gc process, somebody has to fix it soon - and I (& other newcomers) will benefit from better immigration policy.
can any one let me know how long the initial stages take currently?

lets fight to recapture Visa numbers from the previous years.. As this article rightly points us, the road ahead:
Not the End of the Road
Still unresolved is the issue of green cards that have gone unused in the past decade or more. USCIS estimates that 10,000 green cards of the 140,000 allotted for employment-based applicants were not issued last year. Immigration Voice estimates that 200,000 in total have gone unused in the last decade. Immigrant advocates have been urging the federal government to offer make these green-card slots available to help relieve the backlog of those waiting for green cards, an estimated 500,000.
Using green cards from previous years would require legislation from Congress. Lofgren says there have been "some discussions going on informally" about whether such a move is possible. But it's no sure thing. It would be difficult to pass such legislation in a Congress that is leery of any immigration issue after a comprehensive reform effort with the support of President George W. Bush and bipartisan leaders in the Senate got shot down earlier this summer.
Meanwhile, immigrant advocates say they will continue to press to speed the process of turning workers with visas into permanent residents. "This [decision] helps us move from a more painful limbo to a less painful limbo, but it's limbo nonetheless," says Immigration Voice's Pradhan. "Adjustment of status is not our final destination; green-card status is."

I asked my company attoreny about this.. he said that immigration petition is I-140 and as I-140 is not filed for your wife (I-485 is already filed for my wife) so I should say No there for my wife's form.
You are right , I just got the same information from my employer and the attorney that I-140 is the visa petition and not the I-485.So for H4 dependents the answer should be "NO"

04/17/2006: CIS Ombudsman Recommends USCIS Director to Issue Multiple-Year EAD
USCIS has already enacted a regulation that allows the Service Centers to issue multiple-year EAD. However, this regulation has not been implemented by the USCIS because of its impact on the USCIS revenue. The Ombudsman wrote on March 20, 2006 his recommendation to Dr. Emilio Gonzalez, Director of USCIS to implement this regulation on the ground that multiple-year EADs would substantially reduce the USCIS immigration benefits workloads and that if impact on the revenue was the hangup for the failure to implement the published regulation which is a binding rule, the USCIS might consider raising the EAD application filing fees. Multiple-year EAD will relieve the customers from substantial inconvenience and hassle each year. The statistics also strongly support the Ombudsman's statement that issuance of multiple-year EAD would reduce substantially the USCIS workload. For instance, the February 2006 monthly immigration statistical report indicates that the total receipts of entire applications and petitions numbered 409,893, out of which EAD applications numbered 100,051, during one month in January 2006. It means one-fourth of total immigrantion benefits applications and petitions were taken by the EAD applications! This reporter strongly and without any reservations supports the Ombudsman's recommendation and justification! This reporter urges Dr. Gonzalez to implement the regulation as soon as possible.
The CIS Ombudsman also recommends the USCIS to issue EAD valid as of the date of the current EAD expiration rather than the date of approval. Current practice has raised pains and aches to the I-485 waiters in two areas: Potential gap between the date of expiration of current EAD and the date of approval of extension of EAD, and loss of some period of existing EAD when the EAD renewal is issued a few months earlier than the expiration date of the current EAD. Again, we strongly support this recommendation as well. For the memorandum of the Ombdudsman addressed to the Director of USCIS, please click here.

I'm not sure, but it does not sound like something positive. The only positive might be that they are looking at your file instead of putting it in some warehouse somewhere. I came across this thread where people were discussing this issue last year. You might want to take a look, there apparently were a variety of guesses for this. However it might be some sort of internal check/audit.

how do you know its run by funding generating from immi fees? any links?
Even so; not being a Vote bank is the reason we cannot do anyting here. Plus we are not united enough to generate enough funds or show enough economic impact (i.e. make our case) with lawmakers to get USCIS to clean up their act. IV is our best chance.

URGENT ACTION ITEM
I've asked this of narrower groups, and no luck so far.
Tomorrow, Tuesday is the last day for this, Wednesday at the outside.
If you are in MI and have an immigration attorney in MI then call him/her ASAP. Ask if they know any motor company or big corporate executives here on visas. If they do we would like one to testify on Thursday. If not testify then at least add name to a list of executives.
Alternatively, if anyone in big motor company knows of foreign executive, either email me contact details, or ask them yourself, if I ask there is no come back on you. For just create a list of foreign executives and give to me with their job titles, and even phone numbers.
We have a plan and we have a chance of getting bill 962 revised.
My contact: mark at immigrationvoice.org

Hi
I am going to apply for i-485,
i have birth certificate which is taken in 2005 but I was born in 1974
some of my friends are saying...as you are born in 1974 and as your
birth certificate was taken in yr 2005, it might cause problems (ins poseses query)
to get the green card.
Is it right?
They are saying me to get Affidivits + non availability certificate now.
will it be a problem if I put my birth certificate....while applying for 485
thanks

Your friends are correct. U can avoid RFE in I-485 by using affidavits.

I am curious of the average networth of H1Bs excluding their parent's money. The money they just made so far. Not sure how to start a new thread. I read somewhere online there are lot of H1Bs who are working for 10 years are almost millionaires. Can they use their accumulated wealth to do an investment based green card.
An individuals income and their net worth is their personal information. I don't think you will get more info on this (that too in a public forum).

I like the DOF, and it would also work if the whole string of flowers were sharp.
There is possibly a bit too much flash, the shadows between the flowers are a bit hard IMHO.
I'd clone out the leaf at the lower left.

I agree with Mr. Bond
We need some basic administrative fixes and recapture of visas before we all burn out. I just hope whoever wins will give us some relief before any major over haul...

Looks like the demand data does not include the backlog at NVC. How does it work? I am not familiar with the process. Any ideas...?
Please see my earlier posting:
Here is the latest snapshot of the backlog of EB applications:
EB1= 7,595 + 2,961 ( at NVC) + new applications.
EB2= 45,573 + 6,738 ( at NVC) + Huge backlog waiting in line.
EB3= 114,442 + 102,395 ( at NVC) + unknown backlog waiting in line.
*NVC stands for National Visa Center.
** Does not include service centers.
* Spillover to EB3 may not happen for several years due to a large number of EB2's waiting to submit their 485 applications.
* Even if spillover occurs, majority of them will go to EB3 Philippines (please See the NVC backlog).
* From the above, assuming no spillover to EB3-I, it would take (56,640 + 20,873)/2600=30 years.
* With spillover (lets say after 5++ years due to the pending EB2�s), it may take another 5 to 7 years to clear the EB3 backlog.
