Everything makes sense to us ... i hope some sense comes tot he folks manning the immigration process.

Any ideas why this is happening?

PD has to be current for the I485 to be accepted. For a dependent's application, Primary's PD is used. Bottomline, you will have to wait till your PD becomes current to apply for your wife. Most likely, the application will be returned.

swwwweeeeeeeeeeettttttttttttttttt

Hello ALL,

My spouse and myself are called for 485 initial interview, have couple of questions.

1) Do I need to take Affidavit of Support docs(form I 864), my 485 is employment based and not family based(I am the primary applicant)

2)Do I need to take Original I 140 and Original Labor approved doc

also please let me now if some one have been to such interviews and if there are any suggestion?

EB3-IN,
PD : June-1-06, NSC
I140 approved - Jan, 2007.
485 Filed -- Aug 2007

How about Rakhi Sawant or Bipasha Basu doing a oomph number for IV ?

Thanks!

Would you know the minimum wage level needed to qualify for EB2?

That would depend on prevailing wage for the job and the job location.

thanks for reposting the link
links copied from iv seem not to work!

everyone should here this and read the report. it's important to understand what the problems are and how bad things are getting.

1.Did anybody have recently got H1B stamping done in Hyderabad consultate.
Yes, I got it done in October.
2. Any issues with getting appointment dates.
No. The only issue I had was that they don't let you book well in advance, which makes it difficult to plan travel. Also, I did not realize until the last minute that you need to submit your documents 4 days in advance before the interview. Luckily one of my friends told me about it and I was able to request my dad to submit the documents in time. Not sure what would have happened if I did not submit the documents upfront...may be, they might have still allowed me in.
3. I have all the documentation in place including pay stubs in the last 8 years.
Good. I have been working for 8 years as well and took the paystubs for just this year(2010) and tax returns for past 3 years. But, they did not ask anything as I was renewing for the same company for the same job. They just asked what I do for the company.
4. Is it preferable to get stamping done in Canada than in Hyderabad,
I prefer Hyd as that is where my parents live and I don't have to waste travel fares, visa fees (for canada visa), hotel, vacation etc by going to canada. I just got it done when visiting my parents. If you live close to Canada or have special travel needs, then may be Canada should be considered.
5. How many days does it take to get the passport back.
7 days total I think, including weekend.

As of June 19, 2009, approximately 44,500 H-1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085) cap-subject petitions and approximately 20,000 petitions qualifying for the advanced degree cap exemption had been filed. USCIS will continue to accept both cap-subject petitions and advanced degree petitions until a sufficient number of H-1B petitions have been received to reach the statutory limits, taking into account the fact that some of these petitions may be denied, revoked, or withdrawn.

Employers thinking of hiring visa workers have more flexibility this year to interview and choose the best candidates as visas will be open for at least 2 more months.

Looks like there is a huge backlog of perm applications. I am not sure if they will look at your application anytime soon. If your application is pending more than a year at least you could apply for extension of H1.

It will be delusional on our part to think that perm applications will have an easy approvals.

You are not limited to change job within the same corporation. However you are limited to changing the job within same or similar occupation.

Old company can revoke I-140 since it is their application. They can not revoke I-485 since it is your application. You may get RFE to show that you are still employed in same/similar occupation but that's about it. You don't need to start all over or lose your place in the queue.

My parents applied for visa ..

documents submitted

1) Bank deposit in US around 9000 $
2) deposit in india about 10000$
3) Job No objection certificate ( parents )
4) affidavit's of support
5) They carried all property documents in india ( valuated by CPA )
6) my H1b1 copy and a letter of invitation from me

thanks

Please let me know. My lawyer has taken my personal checks and sent them to USCIS...
Yes you are fine...

As far as I know both the client and vendor letters should state the same and it is good if you have it for 3years.

At least see if your manager is willing to give you the letter on company letter head.

Good luck

Are you kidding me - why are there no stop gap measures/short term fixes asked for all the high skilled folks stuck in retrogression for the very reasons outlined in this letter. This is politics at its best -

I think that's what they mean with "bringing the supply of employment based green cards in line with the need of US employers".

The news from CIS brings joy for a lot of the IV members.

I found this interesting. Salaries for managers are becoming quite competitive in India apparently.
Given that certain areas are especially hot in India compared to the rest of the economy and that gives you a relatively strong position and quality of life. It seems the gap between US and India is closing for people in certain fields faster than it is closing for the average joe.........for whom it will take generations at best. Perhaps we need to see that perspective.
