mtouch = September 24, 2002

Do you guys still have your nails intact

I am far far away so i am cool but my wishes and prayers for you all

[paseb]

my understanding of cir bill if passed - All f3 pl clarify

All f3 with pending petitions will get V visas immediately

But will only the primary applicant get or all derivatives will get V visas?

All f3 whose I130 application was filed on/before age 30 will go to IR status

All my learned f3's can you pl throw some light on my understanding

[mtouch]

All f3 with pending petitions will get V visas immediately

May avail of new V visa which is a non-immigrant visa.

But will only the primary applicant get or all derivatives will get V visas?

Including derivatives

All f3 whose I130 application was filed on/before age 30 will go to IR status

As I said the new V visa is a non-immigrant visa (not IR). For those petitioned before 31 yo, they will be allowed to live & work in US while waiting for GC.
For those 31 yo & above they can visit for max of 60 days.

Thanks mtouch for your prompt reply keep up the good work!!!

My priority date is 2nd Jan 2009 so do you think I will get good benefit from the new CIR?

What I understood was apart from V visa which you rightly said is a non-immigrant visa, all other f3 will be converted to f1/f2a/f2b category which will speed up the of priority dates.

Your enlightenment on the above will be highly appreciated

Hi paseb. There is no conversion. It will be a reclassification to 2 categories:

a. SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF CITIZENS
b. SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF RESIDENTS

See my previous post here: http://www.immihelp.com/forum/showth...ll-F3s/page131 . .. # 1310

My priority date is 2nd Jan 2009 so do you think I will get good benefit from the new CIR?

Since your PD is 2009 you will be subjected to merit-based Track 2.

Part of new CIR Bill:

The merit based visa, created in the fifth year after enactment, awards points to individuals based on their education, employment, length of residence in the US and other considerations. Those individuals with the most points earn the visas. Those who access the merit based pathway to earn their visa are expected to be talented individuals, individuals in our worker programs and individuals with family here. 120,000 visas will be available per year based on merit. The number would increase by 5% per year if demand exceeds supply in any year where unemployment is under 8.5%. There will be a maximum cap of 250,000 visas.

New Merit-Based System: Creates a “Track One” merit based visa which will initially allocate 120,000 visas annually based on a points system. Equally weighted points will be awarded for factors such as education, employment, and length of residence in the US, with the possibility of increasing the allotment by 5% (capped at 250,000) in any year where unemployment is under 8.5%. A portion of these merit visas will be set aside for high skilled and low skilled workers.

A new “Track Two” merit-based system is created to adjust the status of individuals lawfully present in the U.S. for over ten years with work authorization and to eliminate all existing legal immigration backlogs within the next 8 years. The Secretary is permitted to clear the backlog of family and employment based petitions that have been pending for more than 5 years.

Hi zshah. First please make sure that you got your PD correct. If you have the first notice from USCIS take a look at it again. Second, you have to email NVC ([email protected]) and ask about the status of your case. Be sure to include the ff. information in your email:

Case Number:
Petitioner's Name:
Principal Applicant's Name:
Preference Category: F3
Your Priority Date:
Foreign State Chargeability:

Maybe you moved to a different address since your petition was filed so you did not receive any communication from NVC. You should always update NVC of any change in your address.
