Thanks for your informed comments. Like you, I am also surprised to find many people in this forum, who are interested in fire arms.
I don't own a fire arm and not planning to while the immigration status is not yet Citizenship. I don't want the authorities to give another reason to look into my case. I just go for fishing once in a while.
But our family owns two guns in India and have worked with guns from childhood.
Another point is I am very much impressed with how the Americans manage wild life and the nature in general. They enjoy it while preserving it. India does neither. We just destroy it, and write eloquent speeches on nature protection.
Thank you, always glad to help. Many years ago, I was looking for answers to these questions and had to do my own research, internet forums weren't as big then.
I am a hunter as well, and when I went through hunter education, I was amazed to learn how serious the west was about wildlife and nature conservation. Hunting is a very important part of nature conservation. Every country that legalizes hunting, does so in a controlled manner in order to prevent a biological surplus in a species' habitat.
I don't fish that often, except for the odd deep sea fishing trip when the weather is nice, but anything that can get one outdoors breathing fresh air wins my vote.
godspeed,

There are 3 work categories,
at least 3 queues each for three stages.
the first queue had at one time, rir, regular and then bec, perm added to the mix.
EB portings.
07/07 havoc
name check delays.
a single queue at the end.
bottomline, PD monthly graph is arbitrary.
if your PD remains current for at least three months in a row and everything else is clear, there is good chance you are out of the pipeline.
Excellent point. I think it would be almost impossible to predict an exact number since people would be in and out of the line becz of above factors but atleast they should be more reasonable than from all current to all na to 06 to 03....

It seems like e-file applications are getting approved faster because these 14, 25 days are not matching with current I-131 processing times shown in the webpage.

Sorry I didn't mention the country. Mine is EB2 India PD 09/2003
Your case is eligible the chances are high that you'll get it, if dates remain current. And as folks have mentioned, 180 days rule applies. Your infopass will tell you clearly what's happening to your NC but that is immaterial.
I realized your original question was about FP and its expiry and not about NC. So I withdrew my original post to remind you of the 180 day rule which says where the application is otherwise approvable and the FBI name check request has been pending for more than 180 days, the adjudicator shall approve the I-485 and proceed with card issuance.
Will you send me a PM the day you get a notification that 485 is approved? I guess now I am getting impatient, despite being fully aware of a possibility of dates retrogressing in the next bulletin.

When I posted that reply I didn't for once think it could be taken as anything other than a joke! If you are going through a debate in your mind whether its a joke or not, then I will have to revisit what I wrote to see what it is I am missing :)
i'll take this as joke.
Trust me, if he wants to kill you, he won't ask for your money.
If he asks for your money/car, he doesn't intend to kill you.

I don't know what's the logic behind the processing dates. How could all the dates move back so much? It does not make any sense. I wonder if we could contact someone regarding this or maybe, USCIS wants to minimize the number of queries and moved the dates back so fewer people call and ask for status?? I have no idea what's behind it.....

I have been thinking for a long time to own a gun but due to my H-1B status could'nt own one. My I-140 was approved last year and now I am working on EAD.
I am wondering if anybody else in a similar situation purchased a gun; I mean after he/she started working using EAD. I tried to research the issue but the law is not clear on the subject.
I think this is a wrong forum . you might want to get in touch with NRA (most of the members of NRA are very conservative ) .... They might help you or make you a plaintiff in a lawsuit.. Supreme court may very well favor you given their recent second amendment rulings :)

Also all said and done CIR still remains a controversial bill, that at the very least has to be debated at length in the house to send out the right signals. If it gets passed in the lame duck, the conservatives will go to town with their story that an amnesty has been shoved down the throats of the american middle class. I doubt either the president or the democrats want that at this stage.
because he has to regain his popularity with the American people, and immigration is not a top priority for the American people, as all the election polls showed, and as the infamous Ombudsman on this site "reported" so often

One can file 485 when his/her dates becomes current using the 140 receipt notice.
Not sure why you are waiting to file 140?
Hello,
I am new to this site and had a question about the Nov. bulletin that maybe someone might be able to answer. I am EB3 ROW and I am still not able to submit my I-140 + I-485 concurrently by 5 days (my PD is July 5, 2002).
Do you expect the EB3 ROW dates to move forward at all in the Dec. bulletin?
I just need to know because my lawyer is pressuring me to submit my I-140 not concurrently, but I wondered if I just should wait for a month.
Thanks in advance for your help!

There is nothing in the USCIS memos to suggest that USCIS has implemented any such policy. CR you talked to may be ignorant and giving wrong info. Or it may be deliberate to reduce the number of (repeat) calls.
I would suggest recording the conversation with CRs so that we have proof of this conversation. Don't forget to ask his/her name and id number while doing this.
Hi,
The customer service representative told me to take an info appointment further to get the Interim EAD. I have explained him that local offices are not giving Interim EADs and surprisingly he told me the following thing.
"You can continue the work with I765 receipt notice provided your employer is OK to continue and told me to provide the receipt notice to the employer as a proof of your application is in pending. As I am surely aware of the fact that in order to continue the work we must have an approved physical EAD. I was totally surprised and asked him "Are you sure?? can we continue the work with the receipt??", he replied "Yes and only if your employer agrees for that!"
I have no clue???? What to do, friends please share your thoughts on this.

Another point is I am very much impressed with how the Americans manage wild life and the nature in general. They enjoy it while preserving it. India does neither. We just destroy it, and write eloquent speeches on nature protection.
Federal law does allow H-1Bs to purchase firearms if they have lived in the US (Same residence, if you move, the clock is reset) continuously (if you leave the country, the clock is again reset) for 90 days and fall under one of the 4 exceptions listed below.
- Possess a valid (unexpired) hunting license issued by any state in the US
- Are a Law enforcement officer from a foreign nation, here on official duty
- in the US to participate in a shooting sports competition
- get a waiver from the Attorney General
The easiest of these 4 exceptions is the Hunting license exception.
Once you meet the above mentioned criteria, you are okay, per federal law to possess a firearm. Doesn't matter what non-immigrant visa you are on (H-1B, F-1, AOS).
Next step is to check whether your state has additional restrictions. I don't think any states completely bars non-citizens from possessing firearms (atleast none of the states that I have lived in do), although some states have restrictions on the type of firearms non citizens can buy. e.g. in MA, non-citizens (including GC holders) can't buy handguns or high powered semi auto rifles (ARs, AKs) but they can buy non-large capacity rifles and shotguns.
As someone pointed out, trying out guns at a public range which has rentals is a great way to introduce oneself to the sport, learn basic firearm operation and safety, and to try a wide variety of guns and calibers.

Since most of the west coast people who found it diffcult to attend the DC rally, was because of the cost/total flight time etc, for future may be it might be a better idea to conduct coordinated east coast (DC or new jersey or where ever there are huge legal immigrant aspirants) and west coast (silicon valley/bay area) rallies simultaneously. Probably even one somewhere in middle of USA (Texas ?)..
That way, not only does it give an impression that its a wide spread effort and get better noticed, but also make it more convenient for people to attend. And also may instill some sense of friendly competition between local IV chapters to 'beat the numbers' and may encourage people to attend the local rallies in huge numbers. And also it will even out the effect of some local region having poor attendance.
Also the burden on the 'core team' will also be spread out evenly, so we can conduct more such rallies in future at a shorter notice and with lesser effort. Key to this is developing the local chapters more, making them more autonomous and regulated.
It also has been mentioned in various posts that the hierarchical structure of the organization is not very transparent and many people seem to be still confused between 'core members'/admins versus 'senior members' and volunteers. I agree IV is by us and for all of us. But it doesn't hurt to have a streamlined organizational structure...(may be such a structure is already in place...if so then it needs to be more transparent ) That will make IV look more professional also.
Coming to ideas like sending more flowers ...or stoppers etc....
We need to be careful to not overdo things. It might dilute the intention and may even send negative message. And also sometimes well intentioned creative ideas but not immediately apparent, can fall flat.
