I have got my EAD, and my application was filed in EB3, 2005 in perm.
With the kind of speed USCIS is working with, I fear I would never get my GC.

Whereas My brother is a Citizen. Can it be possible that he files family based GC for me ?
I have read that for family based applications they regard the priority date as date of filing I-130.
If I do so, will my current process be wiped off ?
what are the repurcussions.
Please advice.

It does not wipe out any thing. But PD for Brother/Sister of Citizens ( 4th Category) is 04/15/1998. EB3 is better then that. Just apply I-130 in case.

OK.

Is there anyone who has the same status on AP and actually received the approval notice?

Thanks.

Same status for about a week. No letter yet 10/30.

Even if your extension gets denied then your current H1 is still valid till Sep 2009 and you can work till then ..

Give me a green dot if you can.

Guys I need your expertise and valuable answers on this:

I have an approved labor and approved I-140. Based on this I've got extension for 3 more years. I have a contract-hire opportunity which requires me to be a consultant for "X" months. I know I can transfer my H1 to another company. But my question is, can I transfer my h1 again to join the client after "X" months.

I am assuming you are already in 7th or beyond year of H1. You can transfer again if your old I140 is not revoked OR you get a new I140 approved while you are a consultant.

thanks for the answers! To clarify, yes I do have my notice. It's for a different location and time though. I've moved and just don't want to travel that far.

So if I just bring my notice and passport (and finger) to the Boston office, they'll let me do the fingerprint? Is it possible to be denied for these walk-ins? Boston isn't too busy on Friday mornings/afternoons, is it?

-Bachelors or Masters Degree is preffered.

The above ad sent out by my company is very confusing to me. Please some one help me understand the ad.

I have MS + 2.3 yrs of experience. 2.3 yrs is gained as Programmer analyst/software developer

your ideas are helpful

Every year of education = 2 years of work experience. In your case it should be:
Masters with 2 years of relevant work experience OR
Bachelors with 6 years of relevant work experience. Atleast thats what I remember from my EB2 PERM application.

I have an idea. We can make following proposal to lawmakers....

In next 2 years they can sunset EB3 catagory. In exchange for that they will give visa numbers enough for everyone whose EB3 485 is pending or in pipeline(labor, 140)

What you guys think of this idea?

Anyways there are lot of people who just want to keep EB1 and EB2 catagories. We may get support from them with this proposal......

Will the retrogression in Family Based have any consequences for the Employment based immigration?

Most of the EB3 are living in the hope of filing family based green card when their kids turn 18, which will be in another 7 to 10 years.

Possible if Master's is in same field.

All, please do this. Lets stop this trend before it comes and bites all of us.

I 140 if filed in premium- USCIS sends an recipt email with recipt number to your lawyer,if he shares that email with you u can check the status online on USCIS website .
It takes anywhere from 5 days to 15 days to get any response.
If your case is straight forward u get approval within 5 to 8 days depending upon the workload and the service center. Also depends upon how your case is positioned, category and documents provided with the petition application.
I 485 i have no idea but if ur PD is current should not take long,my friend got his card in 20 to 25 days max but he had not filed concurrently as he had observed concurrent filing leads to a delay in 485 process.

I received a notice from uscis

"USCIS will use the priority date that must benefits the applicant, your request has been sent to your file"

Anybody has any idea what this means.


Thank you all

Hello Attorney's

My H1 Extension got denied and reason - employer could not provide "End-Client" letter.
(Client is not providing any letters to "consultants")

I have an Approved I-140 and Pending I-485(EB2 PD Oct 2006).

Currently working using EAD

Question -
What kind of implications will this have on my I-485 application?

Is there something that i can do to like change my current employer etc,,
to save myself? Or is this the end of my immigration journey.

Attorney's Please Advise.

Thanks in advance

I did get an LUD on my approved I-140 which i am not using for Adjustment of status. I have applied I-140 and I-485 concurrently through a different employer. I am really surprised what caused to trigger LUD on that I-140. I am not asking for priority date port either. Interesting.....

Can any answer this question or put our thoughts on this?

Now all EB categories being current most of us are applying for 485 so how does the Approval process work?

Is it the first come first out or
It depends on the Priority Date?

:confused:

Thank you for the response.
The salary on Labor is mentioned as $76k. At the time of renewing EAD and AP every year it is at $90k. Since, salary increased after filing GC within the same company.
With AP portability a lot of advisors say, salary shouldnt be a concern rather job duties are.

I got the LUD on the same date (Soft LUD) but didn't call to check on the status.

mine is at CSC.

BTW Murthy is not he.
