I've been working with David Frenkel at Frenkel, Heshkowitz, Shafran in NY. Been with him through my H1B process and now my PERM, will continue with him. He seems very knowledgeable. He's a very very busy man though so it's a little difficult to 'talk' to him. The paralegal who worked on my PERM is reason I actually got it done...my employer is very unresponsive.
So overall I think they are good. I have called to ask questions, emailed, gone in for consultations, never charged extra. All a set fee, expensive somewhat, but it's broken in steps, like pre PERM, pre I40 etc...so guess it's almost guaranteed
ANyone else deal with them?

Thanks admin, and link provided by Eb3_frustrated works. Is TITLE IV--BACKLOG REDUCTION AND VISAS FOR STUDENTS, MEDICAL PROVIDERS, AND ALIENS WITH ADVANCED DEGREES, the only one which applies to us? The reason I ask is, I was going through this section and could not find where it says, spouses and children of primary applicant are excluded from cap count. Am i missing something or it has been removed?

Unfortunately not.. AP is only for 1yr. You see in these tough times both US gov. and our attorneys need to make some extra cash..:rolleyes:
Are they approving parole for two years similar to EAD?

I don't know if any one has noticed or would agree with me. But based on the numbers I feel USCIS is the real bottleneck in EB green card. They have somewhere around 250,000 EB visas available per year for the last severel years, but they were issuing only around 80,000 EB visas per year.
I bet they have only issued around 120,000 EB visas in the year 2006 (Oct 2005 - Sept 2006), even though the quota is around 250,000. (140,000 direct + 100,000 from family other category).
Unless we do something to fix this bottleneck, most of us are not going to see the GC. Even if the Congress raise the EB quote to 1 million per year with out any country quota, it all boils down to USCIS's usage of those available visas.
USCIS had given one week time to file for I-485 and then closed it. Later after the flower campaign they opened it up for a month. I mean to say, They had opened a small opening for us to get in. Now its our chance of how to get the opening bigger. We were successful by doing a flower campaign. We got to do more. The slot should be made more and more wider and should lead us to green card.

Not really true. If you look at web site, they are now approving cases filed in June 07 even though the processing times bulletin says April 07.
All EB3 who filed their I140/I485 in June and afterwards have to wait till processing date cross at least June. Right now TSC is processing April 2007 cases.

Folks,
It is very important for everyone to comprehend the difference between a litigation attorney & your regular immigration attorney.
Your regular immigration attorney understands immigration law and will file your paper work, follow up with CIS, etc. Litigation attorneys handle litigation - they argue in court and fight for you.
The two are completely different practice areas from what I have seen. Most of the cases that we come across are the regular Immigration Attorneys who will not go to trial if things get tricky.
Please remember this.

Hi,
This is little wired, what do you all think about these messages
Receipt Number: SRCXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Application Type: I131, APPLICATION FOR USCIS TRAVEL DOCUMENT
Current Status: Approval notice sent.
On June 27, 2008, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I131 APPLICATION FOR USCIS TRAVEL DOCUMENT. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.
The above one is very clear, that I-131 is approved. But check out the next one....

On July 1, 2008 we mailed the document to the address we have on file. You should receive the new document within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service.
Does the above message mean RFE or something?

This is a good first step in this direction after our campaign for FOIA last year. If we can get the data we need, prediction on date movement and getting the clear picture on pending applications should be easy.
I personally feel 5K is too much to charge, but if this is what it takes I think we should pursue it. Lobbying for it may have cost more. We need to get more information about this and if everyone agrees we can raise funds and pay for one request to take it forward.

She is very slow and does not even talk to you. The staff working in thier firm is arrogant. I was current in June but they didn't apply eventhough i sent my papers in May. Instead they were cursing DOL for the July bulletin withdrawl. They'll never respond to emails properly. I strongly don't recomment Jennifer Hallet.

You still have time to arrange your plans and attend! Here�s why you should come:
You have probably made up your mind not to attend the rally. Perhaps you think that already many people will attend and that one more or one less person (You) will not make a difference. But it will! In fact, let�s not even think about whether one more or one less person will make a difference. Rather, I invite you to think this way: Do it because it�s right! Do it for yourself! Think to yourself that you would do this even if you were the only person attending the rally. Think of Gandhi. Think of Martin Luther King.
You have been very frustrated for years with this broken immigration system, right? Perhaps you�ve been stuck for years, no raises, spouse cannot work, children aging out? How many times have you wanted to tell Congress what�s on your mind? This is likely your ONLY CHANCE to do so! Again, think of this in terms of you attending even if you were the only person attending. Attend because you are mad. Attend because you want to see change. Attend to make yourself visible, and make everyone out there know of your silent struggle. The silent struggle that you have had to put up for years. Even if that�s all you do, you will feel better. People will know the unfairness that you have been treated with! Attend because IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO! If your friends are not attending, try to convince them, but if they choose not to go, don�t let that influence you! Sometimes in life we have to do things just because they are right, no other reason. Will this rally work? Will lawmakers listen? Will my employer be mad that I took a day off? Will I have to spend $500 to get there? None of that matters! The only reason of why you should attend is because you have been abused, and you will not take it! You have dignity! You will go and tell Congress to stop messing with you unfairly. You have the power, freedom and OBLIGATION to do so! Your children will be proud of you. If you do not attend the rally, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime lost opportunity! LET�S GO! WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!

Check this thread which is dedicated to such questions. I think if you get married after your I-485 gets approved, it's a sign of trouble since your spouse will get into the family based category which is heavily backlogged for certain countries.

My pd is jan 2005 and i was waiting for the dates to become current.I am not married and will most probably get married by this year end[parents in the process of searching matches].my dilemma is whether to apply for 485 now or not.can i add my wife's name later on while the 485 is in the final stages of the process[say an year after the process began] or just before the green card is being dispatched etc so that both of us can get green cards.i dont want to miss this chance because i seriously feel that the dates might retrogress again.but if i apply and get a green card u all know how many years it will take to get wife to usa in family based immigration.somebody please clear my doubt.Thank you

Risker,
I agree with you 100%
If we have filed our cases earlier - We have every right according to me to get our cases approved before others.. If they leave status current till everyone labors are approved (According to backlog center Sep 30 07) - That would resolve the issue/confusion.
If a clause exisits for us mentioning our 140/485 would be accepted next month would resolve the issue - any thoughts!!!
Regards
Baboo..
P.S: Others whose cases are current - I ' am happy for you too..
