How do I find out if there has been a Soft LUD? I have an online account on uscis.gov and the "Last Updated" fields are all in 2007 (when I filed my AOS).

Come-on members who have not contributed at all. Small donation of $25 or $50 will not hurt your pocket. Only if 2000 members contribute $25/- , it will sum upto 50K.
A small contribution of $50 is nothing, if you care about the cause IV is fighting for. Core members and other senior member are putting their time, money and energy to get relief from this broken EB system. Do your part by making a small donation.
Please, please come forward. Ask you friends to make small contribution.
The sad part is:
About 700-800 out of 3000 have contributed. And they are contributing again and again. Many of them have crossed $500 in personal contributions.
The other 2200 members have contributed nothing

I totally agree everbody. ICICI bank all time sucks. I have account with them for 5 yrs. and everytime I do transfer money to India (FYI I do Wire Trasnfer On Monday morning US CST only should be credited in 1 business day, expected that the money will be credited by Tuesday IST ICICI Business time). What happens eveytime they will credit after 5 business days and provided with lowest Exchange rate. I had big fight with poor customer service people.
One time funny thing happend. I did wire transfer money from my local back to New york bank (ICICI) . My local bank confirmed in an hour that the money got credited in NY bank. I thought money was credited to my local ICICI bank back India in 1 day. Now fun started I was counting the days 1,2,3,4,5, etc... nothing happend. God know what happend to money. I called CSR... I explained her "money transferred to NY bank a week ago." still not credited to ICICI bank. She was telling me that, I should transfer money again then they will deposit the money. I was totally pissed off for their answer. I said, her money already debited from my local bank and money is sittling in NY Bank(account of ICICI). After 1 1/2 hr on the phone she repeatedly tells me that deposit the money again... I hang up the phone, and wrote a big letter to ICICI Mumbai. Then then deposited me the money. Finally claiming that the money was not showing in NY bank that is the reason they were unable to credit in ICICI NRI Bank.

LOL .. Shows how much you are in touch with reality yourself. A website visited by misers and doubting thomases does not a good business proposition make.
I believe IV can charge up to $10,000 a day for advertising on the website. That would be $300,000/month or $3.6 million a year. Even $3000/day would result in over $1 million. That should not be very difficult to do.

I remember that night....since then I lost my 2004 PD, had many hopes dashed, got laid off and so on...but still here, Enjoy your Green!
"I've spent so long waiting I even get nostalgic about the early days. I remember very well, blogging one cold December night on Immigrationportal with Wallenpond, Pdakwala, Superman,Khodalmd and many other early IV luminaries in 2005 putting up a rearguard uncoordinated effort, when Rep. Sensenbrenner scuttled our visa recapture chances in conference committee. Following which IV was born with leadership from folks well known to us now. IV is your organisation and platform. It will only be as strong as you let it be. "

logiclife, ragz4u,
All things considered, do you think it will be a good idea to call up the members to remind them that IV needs contribution?
If you think so, then we can form a group of, say, 10 people and each of them would call 200 members nudging them about contribution.
I will volunteer to be on the group.
You mean members who have not contributed anything so far, right?

For my situation discussed above, I took an infopass appointmnet at Baltimore and they couldn't offer a concrete answer since the case is pending with TSC. They asked me to reply to RFE asking for extension and provide supporting documents. I'm not sure if that would be accepted and results in denial of I-485.
In 2005 for a family based I130 I recd an RFE for birth cert which was not available and somehow could not arrange for the negative certificate in time and asked them for an extension as my papers were to come from from mumbai and it would take more tiime as we had to get the documents from courts in mumbai and ahemdabad.I was sent a denial notice and had to fie a motion to reopen and pay attorney extra money to get the case reopened.So as far as I know they do not issue any time extensions and would decide the case on basis of documents submitted and if these documents are letters asking for more time then I assume they would deny the case as they did for me in 2005.
Good luck.

you can document (some emails/documents indicating that job loss was possible) that you had to move because of things out of your control, i.e. you had intentions of working but because of situation you had to move, then you will be fine.
same things apply if you are laid off soon after getting GC.

The reason for your delay is because of a new rule instituted by the consulates. Here is a extract from MURTHY.com on that topic.
PIMS Verification Required for Certain Nonimmigrant Visas
Posted Dec 07, 2007
�MurthyDotCom
The U.S. Department of State (DOS) issued a directive in November 2007 to the U.S. consular posts that the correct procedure for visa issuance in nonimmigrant categories H, L, O, P, and Q will now require consulting an electronic record. The purpose of the Petition Information Management Service, known as PIMS, is to verify that the employer's underlying petition has been approved by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Even if a beneficiary takes an original I-797 approval notice to the interview, previously sufficient basis for visa issuance, s/he now will have to wait until the information is confirmed through PIMS.
�MurthyDotCom
Not Fully in Place, but Verification May Be Effective Immediately
�MurthyDotCom
While nonimmigrant visa appointments can be scheduled on the basis of approved I-129 petitions and I-797 approval notices, per the DOS instructions now in place, no visas may be issued without verification through the PIMS system. Because no further guidance from the DOS has been issued as of this writing, some consular posts are taking the position that the new directive is effective immediately.
�MurthyDotCom
48 Hours for New Approvals to be Available in PIMS
�MurthyDotCom
Seeking clarification on the new electronic record visa issuance procedure, the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) contacted DOS officials who indicated that, as of November 29, 2007, the data on approvals had not been electronically transferred. Where consular notification is requested, however, information on new approvals should be available in PIMS within 48 hours.
�MurthyDotCom
Domestic Clearinghouse Option for Verification
�MurthyDotCom
DOS has stated that, in the event that an overseas consular post cannot obtain verification of an approved petition through PIMS, it may submit a request through a domestic clearinghouse that can confirm with USCIS that a petition has been approved. The DOS, however, has failed to indicate the processing time for such a request or the number of cases it anticipates may not currently appear in PIMS.
�MurthyDotCom
Conclusion
�MurthyDotCom
How quickly or efficiently the new verification process through PIMS will work remains to be seen. Visa applicants who may be affected by this new process are encouraged to plan well in advance of their visa appointments so that they are prepared if the visa issuance takes longer than expected. We will continue to share updated information with MurthyDotCom and MurthyBulletin readers on developments regarding this new system.

We recently got the Atlas America Insurance with 0 deductible and got two visits done for my father(chest infection). Got antibiotics prescribed, blood test done, physical checkup done. Went very smooth, no payments at all.
Said that, someone who has tested a Emergency visit or a Specialist visit or an Intensive care visit should be able to give us a better idea of who fares better.
Till date, other then a PCPs visit, I have not heard any good reviews for any insurance cos(agents).
And then there are so many agents/sub-agents floating around, that even the genuine ones dont seem so genuine.
We should have a AM/S&P kinda rating system for Visitors insurance.
