Hello Michigan IV Members,
I would like to request all IV members living in Michigan to please respond to this thread. We would like to make the MI chapter much more active in our mission to solve many of the problems we face as legal immigrants. I think as a cohesive group, we'll be able to make a greater impact. So pls join me, Samrat, Jagan, Shailendra, Puneet, Amit, and many other active members in MI to make it happen. We have an exciting event planned for August 09 to which I would like all to participate, and make your voice be heard. Pls feel free to email me at: arenji@yahoo.com

Thanks.

There is this para from Ron Gotcher's web-site:

Typically, visa backlogs are reduced by issuing visas and thus removing people from the demand list. In this case, the movement is due to decreased demand � people with approved petitions on the waiting list simply aren�t applying for visas.

(Whole article here: Home - Information from the December Visa Bulletin (http://www.immigration-information.com/forums/content/190-information-december-visa-bulletin.html))

The article says that dates have moved forward because the people whose dates are current, have not applied for their visas

And suppose we could do the same -- if no one applies the gc even once the PD is current, there will be forward movement.... then WHAM! In one go, all could apply

Anyway, just a thought (or you may call pipe dream :) )

1. I am seeing that June'07 485 filer claiming to get GCs this month. If that is the case, then the possibility of pre-june cases of getting GC are also higher.

2. However, the service center processing times shows that they are processing only Aug'06 receipted AOS applications as of July 07. https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=NSC

If the statement 1 is true, then USCIS should have cleared most of the pre-july 07 cases. I say MOST and not ALL. In this scenario, the processing dates of service center in coming months SHOULD move to June - July 07 pretty soon (theoritically). Does anyone agree with this one?

Obviously, the prospects for major immigration reform legislation are being dealt a blow this evening. But it looks like the lord of the anti-immigrants - Tom Tancredo - is going down to defeat in the Colorado governor's race. Marco Rubio seemed to push an Arizona-like law for Florida in the election campaign, but his speech this evening was all about the immigrant dream. Perhaps he'll follow in Mel Martinez's footsteps and lead in re-establishing a pro-immigration Republican caucus. Exit polls are showing that immigration was NOT driving most voters decisions. And it's a little early to call it, but it...

I think you can't apply more than six months in advance from the date your H1 is expiring.

I guess anytime August onwards should be good .

Hi,

I have an approved I-140 with my current employer. I have an offer from another employer that I am considering but the new employer will only transfer the H1B and not sponsor the GC.

Q1: Can I transfer my visa and start working for new employer and keep the GC process with the old employer if they agree to keep the offer open?

Q2: After visa transfer, if my PD becomes current, can I file I-485 with the old employer while working for the new employer?

I really appreciate any help.

Thanks
DSP

I hope its in thousands... Just a guess!

So....is there a problem with that? I still think it's cool.

400th post! Oh yeah!

Immigration activists say they are hopeful that Gov. Deval L. Patrick will support proposals in an advisory report calling for more English classes for the state�s immigrants and in-state tuition for undocumented college students. Patrick released the report containing 131 recommendations, which he called a �values� statement, at a luncheon for immigrant advocates.

Since July 2008, resident immigrants and activists have crowded meetings around the state pressing for those programs and others, including allowing immigrants to get state drivers licenses.

Nice for your first try :)

Exactly my thoughts buddy, when I saw that on TV

Reuters talks to Pakistani tennis star Aisam ul-Haq, who made it to the men's doubles finals of the US Open this week about his immigration problems entering the US. He seems to maintain a positive attitude despite being regularly grilled by US immigration officials. Of course, he'll need some luck getting an O-1 or EB-1 approval since he didn't actually WIN the US Open. But that's another rant for another day.

Wendy Sefsaf of the Immigration Policy Center makes the case that the answer is no. And she also lays out the evidence that legalizing those workers would actually raise wages for US workers and contribute to economic growth that will result in more job creation.

Added!

and very easy to do. How can we request IV to file FOIA and why haven't we dont it already?

I have quick question, coming month (April) I am going to Indian and planning for stamping. I have advance parole with me. If my visa got rejected or delayed can I come back to USA using my advance parole?

Looks like your first post. Please search for information prior to creating new threads. Hopefully above link will answer your question.

Friends,

I am on H1 right now. I got my H1 last year, Before that I was on OPT (F1). I didnt go to India after I got my H1 and I am employed since the H1 started (Oct 1,2007). I am planning to go to India now in dec. I heard that if you stay more than an year after getting H1 and without getting the passport stamped, I need to fill out an additional form before I got to the visa interview. Is this true??

Secondly, When I applied for H1, I applied thru company A. But even before the H1 started (which is Oct 1,2007) and as soon as my H1 (for company A) got approved (Sept 10, 2007) I applied for H1 transfer to company B. So I was on Company B's H1 from Oct 1,2007 (which is the actual start date of my H1). Now, would this pose a potential problem at the visa interview?

Please clear my doubts guys.

Thanks.
