I've received this letter from DOL by mail. I think this is in response to the fax that i sent through IV a while ago. I am posting the contents of the letter here.
U.S. Department of Labor
Employment and Training Administration
200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C. 20210
Aug 28 2006
<My name here>
<My address here>
Dear Mr. <My name here> :
Your letter to Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao was referred to this office for reply. The Office of Foreign Labor Certification in the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) is responsible for administering the Department's Foreign Labor Certification Program. You expressed your concern with the processing of cases by the Backlog Elimination Processing Centers.
We share your concern regarding the lack of transparency in the Permanent Backlog System and are working on approaches to provide additional information. The criteria for processing a case are dependent upon the timely and complete response of the applicant to all issues and to the First In, First Out (FIFO) status of case. However, assuming two applications with the same priority date, there are several factors that account for different processing times. These include the type of application (Reduction-In-Recruitment Vs. Traditional Recruitment), the stage of processing at which the application was received by the Processing Center, the dates of other applications pending at each center (which determines each application's place within the FIFO queue), the quality of the application (applications that raise questions take longer), and the response time of the employer to center requests for confirmation to continue processing the application. Nevertheless, based on our current progress, we estimate the permanent program's backlog of cases will be eliminated by September 30, 2007.
Sincerely,

Hi,
The last time I came back into this country, I used my AP as I didn't have my H1 stamped. My H1 is valid till 2010.
My EAD expired last month and my bumbling lawyer did not send in the I-485 copy and hence there was an RFE. So I still do not have an EAD approval.
Would it be safe to get paid this month or should I have my company process this month's salary after I get my EAD approved?

A quick question for all you experts out there
My wife is on H4 right now and I am on H1, though we got our EAD last year, but I am still using my H1 and not used my EAD yet, So is it possible to apply for Social Security for my wife, will applying for Social Security Number, considered as using EAD and H1 becomes void.
Use of EAD to get SSN is OK. Don't use EAD for work.

Hello,
I am starting this thread to infuse some life into the now dormant contributions to IV. I noticed in the past few days that we have been stuck @ 70,725. All of the core IV members are busy talking to the Senators regarding the SJC bills in Washington and generally working hard to push for our cause.
In the meanwhile i feel we as members of this group should again start the push for contributions as we are certain to face an uphill battle in the House.
So please contribute and ask your co-workers, friends, family to also do so now. This is the least we can do... :D

I just came across the following article, which analyze in depth about the anti-immigration groups, their stratergies, bases and the clout they have. Though some of the names seems neutral, the intention is really not.
I think it is essential for us to know the entire backgroud, if we need to fight our cause.

First renew your passport as soon as possible.
After that go to your local CBP office and request for I-94 update by showing your approved H1B petetion. If you are lucky, the CBP official might correct your I-94.
If not, apply for your H1B extension bfr your I-94 expires( a month bfr will do) as you can file for H1B extension six months bfr the current one expires ...
Good Luck ...
I don't think you need to change that I-94. But you need it to prove your last POE and date. My I94 stapled on the PP expired long time back. I just kept extending my H1 to have the valid stay.
Ofcourse you can renew you PP and keep the old I94 with your new PP. Try to do emergency PP renewal though.

I applied for my I-140/485 together in the last week of June. I havent got the receipt numbers yet. My wife is on H1 and since she is not the primary application on my 485 forms, is it okay if she changes her job. Will her H1 transfer affect both of our applications.

Guys:
I wanted to know that if somebody has currently an approved LC and I-140(EB-3) with Company A and decided to change jobs to Company B, who would now file under EB-2.
a) Can he hold on to his EB3 priority date..though the new petition would be filed under EB-2 ?
Yes, I know a lot of ppl have asked this question in the wake of the retrogession that we are all sufferning through ?
b) If this Company B were to file for H1-B , as I understand it would count towards the 2007-2008 quota which opens on April 1st '07...does this scenario also force you to not start working till Oct'07 (which is when ppl who file in the 2007-08 quota are supposed to start working).
What I am trying to understand is that in this scenario can you change jobs and start to work for Company B without having to wait till Oct'07 ?
Thanks

To all fellow GC applicants and immigration gurus.I have this question to ask.I recently got my I-140 and applied I-485 (Aug 1 2007).
My employer is moving office to new address.How will it effect my future GC process ?. Thanks in advance
If the company is moving within the same county then no issues.
If it's moving to a different state (or) to a different county within the same state, then refer the following thread
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=158508&postcount=7
Remember, the prevailing wage differs from county to county even within the same state.
