I was looking at the discription but couldn't figure it out. Which category does parents fall into? Does anyone know hot long it takes for parents to receive GC under ROW?

Thanks for the effort. Obviously it is not their interest to release the data, that's why we need to figure out a way to force them to discose such data. I think it's possible to get a court order to request such data.
If you look at the visa bulletin, you can be absolutely sure they are not seriously counting EB3 numbers. There is no description/predictions or whatsoever on EB3 category, which means they have no solid data to support their EB3 cut off data. They are just waiting for the 245i flood to come.
Atlfp,
I have had several conversations with the staff of the CIS Ombudsman on this issue. Believe it or not, DOS has been resisting official efforts to release these figures. Just last week I also talked to the Office of Communications at USCIS about this issue -- no promises have been made but it is an on-going battle.
Also, if you are familiar with the tables in the Yearbook of Immigration Statistics -- those are aggregated tables -- this year (FY 05) for the first time there was a limited release that showed us EB subcategory approvals by country. Such data exists for every year and every table in the Yearbook of Immigration Statistics but is not released to the public -- why? Because the Yearbook tables have been done a certain way since kingdom come. We are also trying to change that.
So yes, we are trying, but it seems to me that it is not in the interest of an inefficient organization to cast light on the nature of its inefficiencies.
Will keep members posted on this.

Berkeleybee

All Employment-Based I-485 Inventory pending at the Service Centers as of March 08,2010.
http://www.uscis.gov/USCIS/Green%20Card/Green%20Card%20Through%20a%20Job/Employment%20Based%20I-485%20Pending%20Inventory-Total%203-8-2010.pdf
From Murthy Law Firm : U.S. Immigration Law (http://www.murthy.com)
1. USCIS Update on Pending Employment-Based I-485s
�MurthyDotCom
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has updated charts of pending employment-based (EB) adjustment of status (I-485) cases. These charts provide precise details of the numbers of I-485 cases currently filed and pending with the USCIS by year and month of priority date, and country of chargeability. They provide a helpful picture of the pending demand for the limited immigrant visa numbers in each EB category. They also can be compared to earlier charts to gain insights into visa number usage.
�MurthyDotCom
Background on USCIS Charts on EB I-485s
�MurthyDotCom
The USCIS started providing the pending EB I-485 charts after the overhaul of the USCIS WebSite. The first set of these charts was reported to MurthyDotCom and MurthyBulletin readers in our article, USCIS Shares Useful Info in Pending I-485 Charts (30.Oct.2009). As before, there are six separate charts with details of pending EB I-485 cases.
�MurthyDotCom
Current USCIS I-485 Charts and Usage of Immigrant Visas
�MurthyDotCom
The most recent charts (PDF 450KB), with data as of March 8, 2010, are available on the USCIS WebSite. The real insight that can be gleaned from these charts relates to the demand for immigrant visa numbers. In order for an I-485 to be approved, and for an applicant to become a permanent resident, there must be an immigrant visa number available. The immigrant visa numbers represent the annual limit on the number of foreign nationals permitted to become U.S. permanent residents in each fiscal year.
�MurthyDotCom
Visa number availability is reflected in the U.S. Department of State (DOS) Visa Bulletin issued each month. The Visa Bulletin cutoff dates are established by the DOS based upon estimates of demand for immigrant visa numbers.
�MurthyDotCom
The USCIS charts provide a picture of that demand and, for some, a clearer explanation of why the cutoff dates in the Visa Bulletin move so slowly or stagnate. MurthyDotCom and MurthyBulletin readers who are unfamiliar with the concept of priority dates, visa numbers, and the Visa Bulletin may find some of the articles on these topics helpful. They are posted regularly on MurthyDotCom, and available by using our search feature.
�MurthyDotCom
EB2 Analysis and Backlogs for India and China
�MurthyDotCom
In the EB2 category, historically, only India and China regularly experience cutoff dates in the Visa Bulletin. This is reflected in the volume of pending cases in EB2 for all countries other than India and China. There are enough visa numbers available to meet demand and, thus, there is not a large volume of pending cases. These cases can be routinely processed without delays due to visa number issues. Thus, there are only slightly more than 3,300 EB2 I-485s from countries other than India, China, Mexico, and the Philippines. Most of these cases have priority dates between 2005 to 2010.
�MurthyDotCom
This contrasts sharply with the volume of cases pending in EB2 for nationals of India and China. China has 16,630 pending EB2 cases, most having priority dates between 2005 and 2007. India has more than twice as many as China, with slightly more than 39,000 cases pending. Of these, most have priority dates that fall between 2005 and 2007.
�MurthyDotCom
When the current pending cases for EB2 India are compared to the chart provided in our October 2009 article, there is a noticeable change. The older charts show more than 6,000 pending EB2 India cases with priority dates in 2004. The newer charts reflect only about 300 such cases, and fewer than 300 with priority dates of earlier than 2004.
�MurthyDotCom
Thousands of LC Filings in March 2005
The Visa Bulletin cutoff date for EB2 India has been stagnant for four months as of this writing, with a cutoff date of February 1, 2005. The likelihood of forward movement increases, as the cases with earlier priority dates are processed to completion. However, one important reason for the stagnation in February becomes evident when reviewing the number of pending cases with a March 2005 priority date. The chart reflects more than 3,000 cases pending in EB2 India, with a March 2005 priority date. This is due to a large volume of labor certification cases filed prior to the shift to the mandatory PERM process in labor certification procedures, which occurred at the end of March 2005.
�MurthyDotCom
EB3 Analysis and Maximum Pending EB3s for Indians
�MurthyDotCom
The EB3 category has a demand for visa numbers that exceeds the supply for all countries of chargeability. The USCIS reports that, as of March 8, 2010, there were almost 136,000 pending EB3 I-485s. The vast majority - almost 60,000 - were filed by Indian nationals.
�MurthyDotCom
There continues to be a large number of EB3 cases with priority dates as early as 2001 and 2002. There are even larger numbers of pending cases with priority dates between 2003 and 2007. When compared to the charts from our October 2009 article, there is a noticeable reduction - over 5,000 - in the number of cases with 2001 priority dates.
�MurthyDotCom
Conclusion
�MurthyDotCom
These USCIS charts provide, for some, a rather grim picture of the wait time for visa numbers in their categories. For others, it may offer some hope that they are likely to be next in line. We believe that it is helpful to have a realistic picture and an understanding of why certain cases must wait for years for the I-485 approval under the current system. We appreciate the willingness of the USCIS to share these helpful updates so that individuals and their families can plan their lives.

1. My EAD is up for renewal and will there be any problems renewing it If either I am with a new employer or in between jobs when the application is being submitted?
-- No.
2. My current employer will hand me my I-140. Can I restart my GC process with my new employer and still maintain my old PD of July 2003?
-- You do not have to restart anything if it has been 180 days since 485 filing and I assume it is the case as you have an EAD since last year.
3. If I restart my GC process, do I have to start my Labor and I-140 as well or do I just re-file my 485?
-- You are fine as you are. There is need to restart anything. The provision is called AC21 and you can google it for more info.
This is really great information. I couldn't find this thread so opened another thread ofcourse cleared the doubts by both guru's. I have one more question, what happens if job title changes during this process.
Thanks

Bush and the others were sure to have a bill by the end of the year 2006, did you see any bill (beside the Bill wall) ?
No, so don`t worry...nothing will happen.
well they tried it did'nt happen because of Republican controled house, we now have Democratic controled house who favor more towards CIR, I think Bush working with Republican senators to get approval for his bill
atleast this is the only issue where president and democrats come close to agreeing on,
Question, does Democrats puts politics ahead by not giving credit to Bush for resolving immigration is the real issue
I do see more chances this year ofcourse this will be do or die situation for many immigration hopefuls

You must be filing under (c)(9). That is AOS pending.
I feel that your current status is "Entered into USA using H1B Visa". I needed to e-file for my wife and mentioned "SPOUSE/CHILD OF H-1 THRU H-3" for that.
Since no one has answered your question, I am just providing information, what I have done. It may not be accurate. I hope no one puts "RED" marks for this. RED marks have become pretty common for providing any suggestion.

I was on H1B until Feb 2009 and I applied for COS to H4 in Feb 2009. USCIS has received my COS application, and it is still pending with USCIS for 2 months now.
1. Can a new employer apply for a new cap-exempt H1B for me (technically a transfer, as I was on H1B for 2 years before)?
2. In that case, do I need to submit paystubs and W2s from when I last held H1B status?

Hi,
I am in need of some advice. I am on first h1b extension with 2.5 hears left. I have an MS but was filed under eb3 with priority date of march 2005 (didn't knew about priority categories at that time). Now I am feeling a bit stagnant in my current job, but have always felt myself constrained thinking about restarting the GC process from zero. Given the current eb3 condition and my priority date what would you suggest I should do? Switch job, get a salary raise, restart under eb2 or continue doing whatever I do hoping eb3 will become current in some reasonable time and i'll be free ?
Thanks for any inputs/thoughts.
You can refile PERM labor under EB-2 and file the I-140 and ask for your EB-3 priority date to be transferred. Provided your EB-3 I-140 has been approved and will not be revoked.

Hi,
I've been in US for over a year on my L1b Visa. Last year i applied for my H1B visa and got through in the loottery. My Visa became effective Oct08. I still have net left my L1 company and nor have got my H1B Visa stamped. Its been 6 months since the VISA is effective. What should I do now, Im not getting jobs outside and also the L1 company is more secure from the job perspective. Should I just revoke my H1B or is it ok to live in the US like this?
Thanks
Leave US asap and re-enter using L1 visa stamp to get back into L1 status.
