Thank you sunny1000. God bless you.

I am planning to file a Fed Court case against USCIS for incorrect denial of I148 with AC21.
Appreciate if have any input/info on below,

1. How much typically a Fed court case cost?
2. Any recommendation of good attorney for this?
3. Any other information/input

All they did was scan the fingerprinting notice's bar code as far as I can remember.

Hi Old Monk and GC.....Thank you for your reply. I am canadian citizen by naturalization. Is it a fast process for naturalization (not by birth) Canadian Citizen too? I havn't applied for I-765. As right now, my husband has no intention me to work in USA. Suppose in future if I decide to work...Can I work once my GC will approve, or do I have to have file I-765 to get permission to work?

Its been only one week, since I have mailed my I-485 to Chicago office. I havn't got my reciept yet. So,will wait for another week or so. As someone said on this forum usually it takes 10 days to get the receipt. My question is once I get my receipt can I apply for Social Security and Driving Licence? Can I leave the country to visit my family back home too? Or do I have to wait untill I get my Permanent residence card? As per GC or lets hope for canadian citizen it takes 6-9 months to approve their case. TIA.

Guys,

Let me explain my situation .

I am currently working with Company A on H1B , applied 485 in August, e-filed EAD 2 weeks back . My project is over and i am on bench from past 3 weeks.

2) Can i give 1 month Notice to employer now and wait till i Get EAD and start once the card comes ?
3) Wait till the EAD card comes in Hand to do any thing ?

Appreciate your Help on this.

Hi ,

Finally after a long wait i heard some good news from my lawyer that my labor from PBEC has been approved.
I have few questions in regards to my H1-B visa extension . The labor that got approved was from my previous company PD March2003 and i also have labor pending for my current company PD Feb2005.
I wanted to apply for three yrs extension on my H1B I will be completing my 5th yr in Feb 15th 2007 and would like to know if i can get 3yr extension after premium processing i-140 bec based on some of the post on IV i came to this conclusion that one has to be in/past their 6th yr term on H1b according to AC21?

Secondly, i would like to know if i can use copy of approved i-140 from my previous company and get 3yrs H1b extension.

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
Effective January 21, 2010, the Department of Labor's iCERT online system will be updated to allow the submission of electronic prevailing wage determination requests. This electronic process will allow Employers and/or their Designated Representatives to submit and obtain prevailing wage determinations (PWD) for use in the H-1B, H-1B1 (Chile/Singapore), H-1C, H-2B, E-3 (Australia), and permanent labor certification programs through the iCERT portal.

Until January 21, 2010, all prevailing wage determination requests must continue to be submitted by U.S. Mail or comparable physical delivery service to the Washington, D.C. address listed below.

BACKGROUND - On December 19, 2008, the Department published a Final Rule addressing the Labor Certification Process and Enforcement for Temporary Employment in Occupations Other Than Agriculture or Registered Nursing in the United States (H-2B Workers), and Other Technical Changes. The Final Rule implemented a federalized process for obtaining PWD requests for use in the H-2B temporary nonagricultural labor certification program directly from the Employment and Training Administration's (ETA) appropriate National Processing Center (NPC)--which was designated as the Chicago NPC.

Furthermore, effective as of January 1, 2010, the Final Rule also federalized PWD for use in the H-1B, H-1B1 (Chile/Singapore), H-1C, E-3 (Australia), and the permanent labor certification programs.

Requestors must submit PWD requests using the Application for Prevailing Wage Determination, Form ETA-9141 (http://www.h1bvisalawyerblog.com/Prevailing%20wage%20Request%20FORM.pdf).

Requestors must submit PWD requests to the NPWHC by U.S. Mail or comparable physical delivery service at the following address until January 21, 2010 when electronic means are available:
U.S. Department of Labor-ETA, National Prevailing Wage and Helpdesk Center,
Attn: PWD Request:
1341 G Street, NW
Suite 201
Washington, DC 20005-3142

In summary, State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) and the Chicago NPC no longer accept and process PWD requests received on and after January 1, 2010. All PWD Requests submitted on and after 1/1/2010 must be centralized and processed at the DOL Washington, D.C. office until electronic means are available on January 21, 2010.

Not to discourage any one but , my understanding from this forum is nothing with respect to RETROGRESSION and THUS OF SKILLED PEOPLE LEAVING THE SHORES will be done in the Lame duck session.

I wish some one prove me wrong and let us know if there is any new news.


Hello ,

It is unrealistic to expect something to happen with out participation. My sincere REQUEST to "YOU" all is


i) BECOME A MEMBER : If you are guest and visiting this site to know about retrogression and your self waiting for a green card and stuck due to retrogression, become a member and participate the forum.

ii)TELL YOUR FRIENDS : If you are member and have not told about this forum to your other retrogression stuck friends/collegues, please do so.

iii) CONTRIBUTE : if you are a member, and have not contributed, please think of contributing

iv) PARTICIPATE : participate this forum more actively with your comments.

It has been the appeal of IV core team MANY times for i), ii) & iii) above.

Also I have seen on many web sites related to green cards, it is suggested to come forward and let know your problems .. Things otherwise, may not happen magically.

Friends on the forum, who think likewise and IV team, please add/correct my comments.

Folks,

I will get my H1B this October. How long should I stick with the same company before transferring? I read somewhere that I should stick with them for atleast 3 months after Oct 1st. Is this true?


I don't think there is any hard and fast rule. But you need at least a couple of pay stubs to show that you worked for this company. I am not a lawyer , seek professional help when in doubt.

If she will not be able to get F1, what will be her status in USA ?

lMy wife got RFE after this LUD, Mine and my kid's no change. Waiting for RFE details. I think since the processing time for Texas is Aug 2007 they are pre adjusting the apps, i guess.

I too had SL on my 485 on 4/10/09 but none of my family members and nothing after that. Does this mean they have assigned my file to an IO?

my 2 cents:
processed is different from approved

Yes, Finger prints are done in Oct 07

Make an infoPass appointment and go with the proof of travel emergency and your receipt notice. They might issue AP.

I will first check CISOmbudsman's web site's FAQ and USCIS Faq for this. But i can not do it at this time.

It's easy, I've been doing it all week long.

Choose to export. When you do it comes up with a menu which lets you choose wireframe export. Also it allows you to choose which type of fills you want to use, as well as options for either the complete wireframe, or just the edges.

I'll be posting my first example of interesting uses for this effect, tomarrow some time.

Mine charged $750.

don't waste your time predicting.

You can use the approved I-140 from company A to get a 3 year H-1 for company B assuming your priority date is not current. However, because you have not been working for company A, you are technically not in valid non-immigrant H status and though Company B's H-1 petition should be approved for three years, the extension may not be granted. This means that at some point you would have to leave, get a new H visa and then return.

ROFL! LOVE the IE+ads stamps :thumb::D
FF and TB one's look slick, too ;)

This POLL is only for the following people: Please respond:

1. Filed / Approved I-140 in TSC
2. Applied 485 at either NSC or TSC.
3. Receipt Pending / received
