I was in a similar situation with EAD

I applied for EAD in November 2008, it got Approved (Card Production Ordered etc) but never rec'd the card.

I raised numerous SR's , spoke to IO' etc. (for 9 Months)
Every IO was very sympathetic but they did not know where my card was.

At last in July 2009 , I spoke to an IO and the said that she would follow it up
The next day, I rec'd an email stating that my Card was sent in November 2008 , since I did not receive it , it might have been lost in the email and If I need EAD, I need to re-apply

After this I spoke to an IO again, she said the case closed - Card lost in email - I need to re-apply.

Anyways... I did not re-apply.

In August 2009 I received my EAD card in the mail :)

Probably I did not make myself clear .
I don't care about any in-state tution or financial assistance .

My question is, is it possible to even file for COS from H4 to F1 after getting F1 denied in India .

Here is the timeline

Nov 2010 - COS from H4 to F1 approved in US.
Dec 2010 - Went to india for F1 Stamping and it was denied.
Jan 2011 - Came to US on H4 visa .

Now is it possible to apply for COS to F1 again ? . Will the F1 denial in India have any impact on COS to F1 processing ?

Bumping it up. This is the most important action ite we can take part in. Please contribute if you have not contributed to this drive yet.

babu,

Congrats to get out from this hell and Thanks for your Promise to continue to support us.

June 31?

i filed thru TSC also, on Aug/14/15. Is this an isolated case or is this happening to others too?

Anyone else?

Nothing new here. It was denied as per existing law. If original I-140 is un-approavable, ac21 can not help.

Guys,
I am happy to share with you all that I applied my 485 on 1 week of June and it got approved today.

My PD was dec 2005. eb3. India.

Thought i would share with you all.:)

Do I need Germany visa to travel on AP, to India via Germany with Lufthansa air lines.. Please let me know.

Thanks.

You don't need a visa to transit in Frankfurt - meaning if you are catching another flight to a non-Schengen state (like India). Else, all "interview", visa stamping (even for other Schengen states), etc. happens in Frankfurt.

I sincerely think that the reason why various immigration agencies are getting away with 'doing nothing' for Legal immigrants is because media does not discuss the backlogs in the immigration system. If we can focus on some really shocking statistics....data...and request some reasonable media personnel to discuss and take up as a story...it would be more helpful than all flower campaigns...and other forms of protests. I wrote to Fareed Zakaria today and you can do so as well. We can try other famous personalities on CNN such as Soledad O�Brien. If you know anybody on the Fox News side who might sympathize and investigate the issue, try them as well. Every media and politicians bracket us in the same group as illegals or fraud H1Bs...that image needs to change before something can happen...its absolutely bizarre and immoral in my opinion when the head of DHS cannot go to congress and say that there is an unfair situation for Legal Immigrants from India/China in the immigration system and she needs temporary assistance in fixing the system. Sec of State and Head of DHS surely have the authority to refer an unfair situation in the congress for a temporary legislative solution until the CIR is addressed.

You are missing the actual thing here. Backlogs are there in family based too - so this backlog is not "THEIR" problem - backlog is there because supply is more than demand. The Visa cap was congressionally mandated and when politcians question DHS - they only say - we will improve our efficiency and process applications efficiently - now without a visa number DHS really cannot issue you a green card. All they can do is process your application and keep. Visa number is the last thing in the process and they have to obtain visa numbers from DOS.

Now - the issue for EB applicants being tied up to employer throughout the process is what is creating a difficult situation for us. Over the past 3 years IV has done a lot of lobbying to the effect of doing rallies, admin fixes, grass root lobbying, media drives and helping people in all sorts of issues.

Look - it is not easy to convince people to change laws - because people on the other side do not see things the way we see it. It is all politics and one has to understand how get things done effectively. When you raise voice - the other side comes back with their POV talking about jjob losses, wage depression, fraud etc..

I see people crying and cribbing and blaming everything and everyone for their situation.

What I intend to say is "No one will help you" - YOU HAVE TO HELP YOURSELF

Should address on Drivers license and Address that we provide for USCIS should it match ?

I am a consultant hence i have given a friends address who own a home so that i dont need to change it often. Now i live in a different state (ofcourse temporarily) and since its USCIS i gave this address for any correspondence to USCIS. Now in future if i apply for any new forms many people have mentioned sending Drivers License but if i sent it it has a different address on it. is copy of drivers license mandatory? how does it work ?

hello all,
Lets say you are a citizen here or your son is a citizen becasue he was born here.
Then you decide to go back and he starts studing with the PIO, I guess that works till he gets to college(Govt colleges are NRI quota right?)

Then when he want to work there dose he have to get a VISA like us comming here to work ?

I ask this becasue a friend of mine said a major IT company in India said that such a person cannot work in India without a VISA and they are not sponsering any visa's now.

so when he tried to come to the US, it seems that he had to pay for all his education as an NRI would have paid.

also if you reject the US citizenship and US is not going to give you any visa..ever !

If you were born in the USA, there is no way to reject US Citizenship. Even after you take up Indian passport and citizenship, you can come anytime to the USA flash your birth certificate and then get a US Passport.

Technically you will be considered a Bachelors in US + 3 yrs Experience = Masters Equivallent = EB2.

You should be a safe - EB2.

It seems to be only on economy? I couldn't find anything on immigration.

Hi,
Shall I fly or drive ?. Which is the preferred way to get the new I-94. ? Any one did like this before ?. Your help is appreciated.
Thanks.

THIS PROCESS IS CALLED DEFERRED INSPECTION - no need to go out of the country

In the below link find the site/airport closest to your current address.

http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/toolbox/c...ed_inspection/

Call up the phone number in the link and fix an appointment.
Go with Old Passport, new passport and all visa documents and I -94

Explain the situation to the officer and he/she should be able to rectify at the time of appointment.
Officer will put the new date on the existing I -94 and update the system and on the card itself. No new I - 94 will be issued.

Thanks,
Krishna

I filled on July 11th no receipt, no check cashed. My lawyer told me, that my lawyer has 50 more candidates waiting to get receipts in month of July.
I think there are many waiting for receipt. Take it easy.

So does CA....

situation is quite different from CA. True, for first time driver's license, you have to show legal status proof. But, you are issued license for 4 years, irrespective of when your current status expires.
For DL renewal in CA, it happens by mail. You once again get 4 year license. No status proof required.
There is definitely no concept of different form of DL in CA where an officer will be able to receogize from the DL, whether is PR or not, as has become the law in Texas.
CA is quite cool with respect to DL renewals.

The Priority Date portability fails only if the approved I-140 was determined to be fraudulent. Otherwise, even if it is revoked, you are good.

Yes, the new employer has to re-start your GC process, so that you can port the older PD to the new application. So, not much time can be gained ...

Other option is to change job after I-485 application is pending for 6 months, but this involves sticking to the current employer for longer time. The advantage is the new employer needn't re-start the process - just invoke AC21 clause and proceed. Exact time requirement depends on your priority date and country of changeability.

What are the docs requested by the VO? Plz update us. I think once you submit all requested docs,your processing will resume

Good luck

Its wrong. Please check with other senior attorney. It is going to be a problem if you used like that.

dpp,

I dont know why its wrong for you. sounds very logical to me. Dont bring in the discussion of unnecessary current employment verification. The letter has to state that the employer is willing to hire him as a future employee. NOT RIGHT NOW. So the title has to be the title stated in the PERM/Labor Cert
