IV can grow into a very strong organization in these lines being discussed. The best way to do it is to join the IVs State chapters and mobilize the community and do meets and greets and conduct seminars and many other constructive stuff

what is that??

Thanks to one and all for your feedback....i shall wait for some more days before talking to USICS

Hi All,

I got an update from my companies lawyer that my daughters application was returned as the cheque was not signed...I have a couple of questions to authenticate what she told me...

1. Could some one let me know what happens when 485 or any application is sent back. Do they send a notice why they sent it back?

2. Would USICS accept those applications again?

3. What is the time period they give for a response in a situation like mine?

4. What is the ramification of a application submission at a later date than that of the main application to USICS.

Thanks...

your payroll should be run against the place of your work and not your employer's state!
This is important!!!

Hi eadguru

I too got query for AP to send clear copies of all data pages of PP,
where did you make color copies and how much it would be ?
Do we need to take all pages from the passport !

Thanks

I did it in Kinkos, I took all data pages in color and empty pages in black and white. It cost me around $15. (For two people). I also included all I 94 Cards.

Thanks Ann Ruben.

My PERM application requires experience as a 'systems analyst' in XYZ technology and i have experience/affidavit letters reflecting progressive experience in XYZ technology from last 7 years with minor difference in wording of job duties.

We are seeking EB2 classification based on "five years of progressively responsible experience", i also have certifications in XYZ technology from last 3 to 4 years (not before starting work in XYZ technology) but i'm not sure if including these will help/complicate the case.. Could you please advise..Also, please give any additional points to take care while filing 140 with EB2 classification based on "five years of progressively responsible experience".


Thanks
PVGanesh

I did it too and as long as you are with the same company doing the same job as you did when you originally started... GO FOR IT... BEC's are a big mess and they are here to stay... at least for another 2 years (this is just my prediction)

"Based on a review of the facts and bedrock principles of administrative agency law, the Court finds that USCIS�s name check requirement has
(1) never been authorized by Congress;
(2) is not mentioned or contemplated by any fair reading of the current USCIS regulations; and
(3) may not, without USCIS initiating notice and comment procedures, be used to delay action on Plaintiffs petitions..."

http://www.bibdaily.com/pdfs/Mocanu%202-8-08.pdf

What a fabulous ruling this is.

One question for Lazycis:

# (3) actually reads "(3) may not, without USCIS initiating notice and comment procedures, be used to delay action on Plaintiffs petitions for naturalization, particularly because Plaintiffs have already undergone a name check in order to achieve LPR status and will clear the �fingerprint check� described in the Memorandum of January 25, 2008.10 The fingerprint check will show whether an LPR who is applying for naturalization has had any contact with the criminal justice system that would warrant denial of the petition."

As far as I can tell even (1) and (2) only apply to Naturalization applicants.

So the question of the hour is: are (1) and (2) true for AOS cases? I am asking this question because to argue a case for compelling recapture you need an AOS version of Baylson's ruling + the Galvez-Howerton decision (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=223315&postcount=121). Only then can you say that there was affirmative misconduct in 2003 and hence compel recapture.

In a move that could ruffle a few feathers in the Barack Obama administration, American entertainment giant Warner Bros has said it will be outsourcing jobs to India.

It is believed that about 200 positions are to be outsourced to India and Poland by Warner Bros, which will slash as many as ten per cent of its 8,000-strong workforce in the coming days.

"While no final decision have been made internationally, the company expects the layoffs, elimination of open positions and outsourcing to affect nearly 800 positions worldwide, or approximately ten per cent of its 8,000 employees," a Warner Bros official told PTI in an e-mailed statement.

About 200 open positions and 300 outsourced jobs would be affected as part of the reduction, while another 300 employees would be laid off, the official said, adding that jobs would be outsourced to India.

While the spokesperson declined to comment on exact number of jobs being moved to India, the sources said that about 300 positions are being outsourced, out of which about 200 would go to India and Poland.

Open positions are referred to those, which are currently vacant, and for which, the company was hiring.

In January, Warner Bros' Chairman and Chief Executive Barry Meyer along with president and chief operating officer Alan Horn had said the company would be reducing its staff strength.

"We have examined every aspect of our business in order to cut costs responsibly and to keep staff reductions to a minimum.

One way to achieve these objectives is to outsource certain job functions to a third-party company," Meyer and Horn wrote in an e-mail to employees on January 20.

It noted that even though the decision to cut the workforce was "very difficult" to make, the move reflects changes necessary for stability and growth going forward.

"We are very sad to announce that based on the global economic situation and current business forecasts, the studio will have to make staff reductions in the coming weeks in order to control costs," the e-mail said.

Meyers and Horn wrote in the e-mail that the changing entertainment business landscape, shifting consumer demand and the overall state of the economy have affected companies around the world, and "Warner Bros is not immune to these factors".

my votes for bat. reflections are my fav :beam:

hi ,

Here is my situation.

(employer) -> (middle vendor ) -> prime vendor -> (End client ).

I am working to a client in california in the above mentioned order. After 1 year we got rid of middle vendor and prime vendor is working with my employer directly . Now middle vendor is threatning me that he can sue me for breaking the line of contract .

i dont understand ho can even its possible as i never signed any document with middle vendor and he is not even my employer . He is just acting as middle layer by showing prime vendor that i am his employee which is wrong. now we removed him from line of contract and he is saying that he will sue all of us for doing this.

is there any way that he can even do this ?

- Thanks in advance.

If you sort it, the title row is also sorted plus there is too much of sorting while people are editing.

How to add an enty?
it does not let me.

I got it for missing Medicals for both me and my wife.

I would trust anytime my lawyer than USCIS.

here is what they did.

Wrong address even though filed for AR11 online and received Soft LUD online. This is one year old address and they didn't even put APT# in my old address. God's Grace I received it by mail fowarding without APT#

Didn't update my online status. Still showing Pending and no LUD or soft LUD

I know my lawyer put in G28 and medicals both when he was mailing it as I was the one who finally inspected and mailed the package.

Some other folks also got for Medicals. Looks to me a routine to get rid off pending cases or preadjudicate.

Weird but true in my case

Hello Everyone!

I sent this post a few weeks ago but didn't really get a response. I think it's getting a little urgent for me so any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll try to ask more specific questions this time around.

My information:
----------------------
Citizen of India.
Priority Data: March 2008
I-140 approved
About to apply for 3 year extension of H1B after 6th year( which expires on Dec 1st 2011). Employer will apply for this extension in June 2011.

My Questions
----------------------
I want to move to another company in another region in the US.
1. Should I wait for my H1B extension to get approved and then move, or can I move now with the current H1B (transferred) and then have the new company apply for my extension? In the latter case, can they do that since my I-140 was applied by my current employer? Why I ask is because the opportunity in the new company is now and I wont get my extension till August 2011(I presume).

2. Will the new company immediately have to start my LC and PERM as my current H1b expires on december 1st 2011?

Guys, please help me, I am confused. I really appreciate any help!
THanks!

Yes, I am a USC, but the Fiance Visa would mean she has to go back to China and wait.

Its possible the IO at POE can deny the entry. So its advisable to get married and follow your attorney's guide.

Did they give you a temporary one or they straight away issued a new permanent DL. Right now all I have is a sheet of paper with my name that states temporary drivers license. I cant even walk in a bar to buy beer ... its annoying!

uuuhhh. I can atleast respond to the drink question! use your passport. that is valid proof of age. The law does not require everyone to have a drivers license. Driving is a privilage.......not a right. So, feel free to take your passport in as proof of age and enjoy the drinks :D

Please take this new poll based on your latest situation.

Thanks!

I need an info from some one who had filed AC21 with an attorney. I want to apply my AC21 and asked my attorney to do so. But he is asking for $1500.00. Is this amount normal or I was asked for an abnormal amount. I thought its just informing USCIS by sending a letter only. But, is he charging me $1500 just to draft a letter?

I am looking for a constructive answer instead of vague assumptions / replies. It's an urgent issue for me to deal with.

This PWD has easily become another "major" process in the very long, frustrating GC journey.

PWD-LC-I140-AOS!!!

Don't be surprised if they bring a premium processing for PWD request and charge $1000 for that.

Thanks guys. Luckily I still have the U-haul rental receipts and all credit card statements for that period. Will send all that. I hope that will help.
