Just Wallpaper Inside

I have changed the job on EAD and used AP for returning back. To be on the safeside I have notified USCIS service center about my AC21 change and kept the copy of the package sent to USCIS.

On our return in EWR, we have been sent to secondary inspection. IO asked whom I am working? I said my new employer's name? He took our copies of AP and stamped I-94 as parolled.

On our return in two days our greencard was also approved without any RFEs.

Again it depends on I/O in the port of entry I guess.

We will be sending out an email to all of you very soon. Hopefully we can have a conference call maybe this weekend to go over what we are trying to achieve with the help of volunteers

Not really. I truly believe the Skill bill will be passed by mid next year to allow all STEM Masters to stay back and adjust status automatically like in Australia. There is a crisis in the US with very few students entering STEM and the US will very likely retain international students by hook or crook. This will also clear the queue for non US qualified temporary workers in the queue for green card.

The chances of the bill being passed in the current pre-election highly charged political atmosphere is minimal at best. But then one never knows..!

Thanks! guys.....All in the same boat then....Screwed.....

Sunil,

I suggest you use the most recent A# on your I-485, and relax.

The USCIS adjudicator has access to all the information s/he needs. They can use your Name/DOB/Citizenship etc. to find out all the A#s that have ever been assigned to you. In case there is a need to change or assign a new A#, they will figure it out.

Good luck!

I agree with the others. We can institute a small membership fee which interested users will be willing to pay on a monthly basis.

While this may seem "out there", it's not really.

US Immigration Law recognizes some administrative divisions within countries. Take Northern Ireland as the classic example. You cannot apply for the DV Lottery if you are from the UK, except if you are from Northern Ireland, yet Northern Ireland is firmly part of the United Kingdom. I'm sure there are others as well that are recognized.

My PD is nov 2003 and now I am planing to port my EB3 to EB2.
I need to know the process to do it.
My previous EB3 is with my old employer.
My I-140 approved from my old Employer and applied I-485 in july 2007 and
later in may 2008 I moved to my current company using AC21 and I applied for H1b also.
now I working 6th year on H1B.
And Here are the questions, if I file new labor have:
1). how long will it take to approve?
and once labor approved, for I-140
1). Am I eligible for premium process of I-140.

I am a July 23rd filer with ND of Sept 24th....no LUDs but RFE last year.....I know of ppl who got GCs with no LUDs to their records...so it is anybody's guess.

I have a WAC no. for TSC so I am screwed further....TSC overflowed my case to CSC and then back to TSC....ppl like me are the worst affected....but since I got an RFE last year they must have opened my file and why would they open my I-485 if they are following ND which i not current even now...

It is all a big mess...god only knows....USCIS is a black box we only know what goes inside that box...what comes out is a lottery....satta...

SoP

I recently had an interview in July end at the San Francisco Office. I am hoping that there is positive movement on my case. I wonder what the process is in local offices.

1. Would it be that all the interviewed cases sent to a common pool where some one picks them up.. not sure what order they will pick up and then approves them till the numbers run out and then the cases are dumped back into the pile.

OR

2. The IO who interviewed you retains the case file in his/her office and based on the VB every month approves the cases that have completed the interview. Now if this is the case then we are at the mercy of individual IO and how organized or unorganized they personally are... wonder if they have a set procedure to follow....

lots of questions .... no answers... only silence....

I called up USCIS - Number: 1-800-375-5283, If you don't have a receipt number and want to get one Touch Key options to press are : 1-2-2-6-2-2-1

You need to say that your application is more than 90 days old, else you will be kicked out.

If you say that your application is more than 90 days old then you will be transferred to another person who will give you the receipt numbers.

For the record there should be one receipt number for each applicant (your dependents and you)) for each document (485, 131, 765)

what do you want? President Bush to come home and welcome you with hugs and kisses? A ticker tape parade? A band? 45 skimpily clad, extremely beautiful cheerleaders dancing and singing: "he got a G, he got a C, he got a GC!"?

you got an approval notice, you are through. enjoy man. :cool:

That was hilarious.....:D:D:D

Dude, whats wrong with you picking on a spelling mistake while the guy is trying to convey the condolences? Its a tragedy and u managed to find humor in it.

My prayers are with the families who lost their loved ones.

you really want their souls to rest in "piece"? sorry could not resist it... ha ha ha...

As a point of revenge ,let's see what the anti's do this time.Let the CIR go thru...no doubt in that...as both the parties love illegals.

Atleast the Anti's will face a failure in few months.A small :)

We will be on Q :p as usual.Who care's...Life goes on.


Of course USCIS has to upgrade - A load of application are going to flood them ...DOL will also work as fast as they can.

If you search...you will find more of these ads!

Nuke bill was an agreement between two nations - India and USA - hence Indian govt had a legtimate interest to lobby for it. Lobbying to change the immigration laws of a sovereign nation by a foreign govt is another cup of tea altogether, and will definitely give a bad name to our cause. You have seen what happened when Vincente Fox lobbied for CIR: even americans who were otherwise sympathetic to CIR were hostile to the idea of a foreign head of state telling them what to do with their immigration laws, and quite understandably so. This is a dead horse anyways - what is the point of flogging it further ?

How nuke bill is related to SKIL bill......

Admin close this forum.

That is Wrong. He can enter on H1 still maintain I-485. H1 can be from any compnay.There is reason why H1 is called as dual intent visa.

Read carefully. If a person not maintaining H/L/K/V status just before leaving US (and maintaining only AOS) and left the country without perior approval of AP, is considered he/she abondened the 485. Thats all. After abondment of 485, it does not matter how he re-enters. He can enter on J1, B1, H1. It does not matter.

One MUST NOT leave US with out approval of AP, if he/she maintains only AOS. Only H/L/K/V status holders can leave USA without obtaining AP, and continue to remain in that status after arrival. All others must get AP. Ofcouses, this guy lost his H1 status, after leaving his previous employer and working on EAD.

So do not post wrong info...

What are the requirements to port from eb3 to eb2 with just an i 140 approved? I am happy with my current employer. I have worked with this company for 5 years now. I have a master's from a well known university in the US. At the time of applying for gc, attorney and company advised to file in eb3.
Thanks.

That means your current position qualifies as EB3 only!! If you want to port you need to find a EB2 qualifying job:)

for my 8th Year extension I applied on 16th Nov.2007
and got approval notice on 28th Nov.2007 with 1 Yr extension.
Actually based on December bulletin my attorney asked for 3 yrs. but got 1 yr. as in Nov my PD is current.
Off-course on 30th my I485 is approved.


So there is no doubt your attorney is so wrong.......

Look no further. EB3 (Other Workers) became "Unavailable" last week and nothing that I read says it cannot happen for EB1/EB2/EB3.

EB3 (other workers) were unavailable in july 07 bulletin...that does not mean they were stopped accepting applications without notice...Arkbird do you agree on this explanation?:confused:
