I think this has been discussed on some other thread.. would it be a good idea to make the contributions public.. may be, this encourages others to contribute, when they realize how much more is needed to reach the monetary goal.
I attended recent meeting arranged by IV in Virginia and they discussed about all this info you are asking. I don't think core team can publicly disclose all this info. They even showed us the recent bill they got to pay the lobbying firm. So next time there is IV meeting please attend it and your questions will be answered in private but not in a public forum.

Indian American contributing $5 million to Hilary clinton. THey have already collected $1million in short span of time. How about organizing Sharukh and Amithab to perform a show for IV in major cities like NY/NJ/Chicago and SFO. If anyone has contacts with organisers of these events, we can try to do something.

EVEN THOUGH WE WILL NOT SAY IT
FIRST UK and now the US
UK kicked out Indian doctors. They also implemented laws which make it difficult for the resident Indians in the UK to marry in India and get their spouses in.
Now its the USA - THEY wont be far behind. Australia will ofcourse follow suit.
PATTERN - WHITE & ANTI SEMITISM
THEY WANT SLAVES WHY CAN WORK FOR THEM FOR FREE. THEY WANT TO PORTRAY THEMSELVES AS ANGELS TO THE BROWN MAN WHICH THEY ARE NOT. Modus Operandi - Spoil the current scene more than it is currently spoiled hence the current situation will look good. Though the current scene is just as bad as can be.
THEY THESE HYPOCRITES GO ONTO THE TV AND BARK
WE ARE A MULTICULTURAL SOCIETY (Read Brits & Europeans all White)
WE ARE AN IMMIGRANT NATION (Yeah right what VISA did the Europeans have when they launched GENOCIDE against the NATIVE AMERICANS)
WE ARE EQUAL OPPURTUNITY EMPLOYERS (READ PREFER WHITE ONLY IN THE WORST CASE WHEN THE DUMBEST OF US CANT EVEN FIGURE OUT WHAT A SYNTAX IS DO WE MAKE A HALF HEARTED ATTEMPT TO HIRE A BROWN MAN). But BY THE WAY the farms need CHERRY PICKERS.
WE HAVE GIVEN SO MUCH TO THE DEVELOPING WORLD McDonalds, Coke & Pepsi (TAKEN MORE THE DEVELOPING WORLD SUCKED IT DRY)
IF THEY ARE JUST SO UPRIGHT ABOUT BEING WHITE WHY DO THEY USE ZERO it was DEVELOPED in INDIA. SHOULD HAVE A FUCKING PATENT on ZERO AND SHOULD GET ROYALTY on it for EVERY TIME A SENATOR APPOSING IMMIGRATION USES IT TO CALCULATE SOMETHING. IF ONE OF YOU IS READING "YOU HAVE NO RIGHT ON THE ZERO START USING THE ROMAN NUMERALS MR. SENATOR, THE ZERO IS INDIAN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY"
PISSED AND MAD AS CAN BE.
IF THE BILL GOES AGAINST US I SWEAR ILL BOYCOTT ALL US MADE PRODUCTS OR EVEN IF THEY HOLD ANY EQUITY IN THE FIRM THAT SELLS ITS PRODUCTS IN INDIA.

Same with me too. My application was moved from NSC to TSC and has been lying there since then. Hasn't been assigned to an officer yet:mad:
I never had any RFE, but my case has been bounced around for no reason. From TSC->CSC->TSC and I am told that it is not even pre-adjudicated not even assigned to any officer as yet. I have yet to see any more illogical organization other than USCIS. :mad:

Hey, I'm about as Anglo Saxon as you get, and I wish all Hindus here and their families a happy Diwali. I also sent a Diwali card to a friend earlier this week.
Just a matter of respect for others and their cultures.
There is a point that we are viewed (incorrectly) as an Indian group.
However, let's not ban Diwali, or Christmas, or any other celebrations.
I don't think it is very popular when ACLU sues local governments that put up certain Christmas decorations.

Some more relevant info:
http://wdr.doleta.gov/directives/attach/TEGL5-02_Attach.html
11. Does the SVP code indicate whether a Bachelor's or Master's degree is the normal entry requirement for the occupation?
The SVP code for the occupation is relevant, but not necessarily determinative. SVP time can include experience, formal education, and any combination of experience and education. Thus, the SVP alone is not a guide as to whether the occupation requires a Bachelor's or Master's degree. Do not infer that a job requires a particular educational level based solely on the SVP rating. Of course, an advanced degree exceeds the allowable SVP for jobs at SVP 6 and below.
This confirms that MS is OK for zone IV (SVP 7)!

If I had my green card today, I would surely be making at least 15K more in my salary per annum repeat per annum.
If not all, many of you are in the similar situation.
My $200 contribution is just 1.33% of that lost opportunity per annum. If I take into consideration the 4 years of wait, it comes to 0.33%.
Almost anybody who is in US for 5 years on H1B can buy an nice little home. (Bay area is bit more cruel).
Last year I could have bought a home for say 500K. It would have surely appreciated by 50K. But because of the uncertainty of GC, I can not. That's a loss of opportunity of 50K.
My $200 contribution is just 0.4% of that another lost opportunity.
Now you know why I support this effort.
Most of you and your friends are in a situation similar as mine.
I urge you to become aware, make them aware and support this effort, which has a potential to minimize those lost financial opportunities, with your wallet.
Thanks,

If LOA can stop the old employer from revoking I-140, I would say, go for it. But just make sure you don't land into any other trouble (like non-competent etc. just an example, may not be relevant in your case, but you get the idea...).
Also, discuss with the new employer and make sure they are ok with supporting you in case of an RFE. From your response, looks like they might know what it is. What I can think of is, consult an attorney and discuss what kinda RFEs you can get that needs employer help (mostly EVL, ability to pay), prepare a sample response letter for both and check with the new employer they are ok with providing them if necessary.
DISCLAIMER: I am not an Attorney and this is not a legal advice
the new company has no clue about visa/h1/gc issues. they have never hired a "brown" guy and they do not even know that i am on ead..even if i told them they wouldn't know wht to make of it..so the only letters i can get will be generic letters stating my occupation and salary with a very brief description of duties. i know someone said loa is not a good idea but i think it just gives me a back up.
thanks evryonr for responses..

Even if the Labor cert says "Masters" then as long as you had BS + 5 years experience before you filed for labor, to qualify for EB2, this should be ok.
This statement is not true. Minimum job qualifications should clearly mention the degree required or other alternate degree(s) with experience which would suffice. Moreover, it is a standard misconception among the community about Eb-2/Eb-3 categories being determined under Labor Certification stage. USCIS is the one which classifies applications under different categories (EB-1,2,3, etc) based on degree and/or yrs of experience, not DOL.
Labor certification determines the following: Minimum Job requirements (Education + experience required, if any), Job description/duties, Prevailing Wage. When filing I-140, if the job requirements meet a particular category and labor certification has been approved and the candidate meets the job requirements (education/experience as defined in LC), then the company can file in the appropriate EB category. Note that, even though if you have an approved LC that will qualify you for an EB-2 case, you also have an option to file for EB-3 I-140 with that LC instead of EB-2. Some companies deliberately do this to keep the beneficiaries employed with them for a longer duration.
Now coming back to the OPs case, I observe the following from the information posted so far:
- Labor was filed with a minimum requirement as Masters degree. No alternate degree requirement or equivalency was mentioned.
- USCIS mistakenly approved the I-140 (I am assuming OP does not have a US Masters and only has masters equivalent or BS + 5 yrs)
- Sponsoring employer revoked approved I-140
- USCIS checked the I-140 and realized it made a mistake in initial I-140 approval
- USCIS denied the pending I-485 based on incorrect I-140 approval
If all of the above is correct, then I doubt if anything can be done. I dont see any grounds to file MTR based on the fact that beneficiary does not have a US Masters degree which is the requirement as indicated in LC filing. I dont think you can do anything with respect to USCIS's mistake in approving I-140 earlier and now denying it. Got to wait and see what the attorney's view is in this regard.

What makes people think that USCIS has preadjudicated cases in the order of priority date. If they have preadjudicated cases from 2005,2006 and left the cases from 2003 -2004 then it is the same mess an d i can bet that knowing USCIS chance of this are very very high so even if your date gets current it is still luck whether you get GC ornot.
EB2 - I
PD: Jul 2004
While everything appears at USCIS to work randomly, but there is some order. They claim, and also follow, that they process application in order they receive. "Process" means to open a case the first time, and order they "receive" means when a center enters a case data in the system (this date is close to ND). Until this point, PD has no role to play. Described processes work well for non-retrogressed cases (for countries other than India, China, etc.). If a case is opened, and its all in order to clear except the visa availability, it is called preadjudication. Procedures described (see link below, although they may have changed since), state that once case is preadjudicated, they should be ordered in PD sequence for further work.
http://www.ilw.com/seminars/august2002_citation2b.pdf
Of course, if there is nothing preadjudicated, cases will go in sequence of "received date", which is close to ND, as PD is not even recorded in the system anywhere until a case file is opened.

It is not joke, that's my unbelievable terrible start since this March. When we look back, still think it like a nightmare. And one neigbour told cop she heard my wife shout "Help me, he is gonna kill me." But you knew we even don't speak English at home. Where that ridiculous words from? BTW, when cops come, they firstly mis-arrest my another neigbour, as they also have some argue. Probably that is where it from.... But now that everything we have to explain on the court and convince the jury. Fortunately my wife always stand on my side.
Anyone could tell me what impact to my 485 approval if damn jury find guilty in my case? Thanks a lot!!!!!!

red splotch for you?? No thats not true... See now you have two greens for defending Franklin:) Franklin (Tamsen) did an amazing job at the rally. No one who has attended the rally has any doubt about it.
ok, that really ticks me off. This post is probably going to get me a red splotch, but you should'nt have picked on Franklin:
I think all the work that Franklin did in preparation for the Rally and then at the Rally itself makes it obvious that she is better than most of the IV members (me included) who could not make it to the Rally.
If you dont like the condescending tone of the voice of someone who has worked hard for IVs goals, feel free to stop coming to IV and posting here. Honestly why should someone here care about whether you like the voice or not when the voice speaks the truth?
Look at all the blog posts and pictures of the DC Rally before saying anything against any of the volunteers who worked at the rally. unlike the people who are "trying to get permanent residency on their own right" these dedicated bunch of IV volunteers are trying to get permanent residency soon for all of us. See the photos, the videos of the speeches and then talk.
What Franklin meant by that post (I think) was that IV is much more than a discussion board for reports of who signed whose Fedex package and what was the timestamp of the package. Its very important that we all actively participate in getting IVs goals met. The rally was a big, for-the-first-time event, and still people seem more excited by tracking receipt notices, and the short-sightedness of it all has made many people ticked off. The turnout could easily have been higher (like someone said, see the lines to the doctors office for getting medicals done when the dates were current, and compare that with how many showed up at the rally).

i'll break my word for one last piece of advice for my sensistive friend:
"The very reason why we join this forum so that we can, as whole, say something that may influence the law makers of this country to change the existing laws so that our problem with GC will be resolve."
no lawmaker is bothering to read this silly thread. Please stop dreaming. if you want to influence, go meet them! that remain's iv's official word on the matter too...see the meet the lawmaker campaign. and if you already have...you have my respect, you are too good in that case to waste your time complaining about this stuff.
I am not complaining. I'm just trying to point out unnecessary comments.
