I heard from some source that non citizens cannot donate blood... if this is not true then count me in ....

Citizenship is a non-issue. If I correctly, the only bar on blood donations arise from recent overseas travel (2 years or 4 years?) to one of the 'high-risk' malaria areas in the world.

Hi,

Hi,

My friend and his family got their GC's approved last week. They also have Canadian GC. My friend is the primary applicant and she is currently in US, but her husband is in India. He did not apply for an advance parole and was planning to re-enter the country using his Canadian GC. Now that his US GC is approved, will there be any issue at the port of entry?

Thanks for your help!

Hi

I am on H-1 and recently filed for my 485. After I receive an EAD in 6 or so months, am I eligible to go to school full-time while waiting for processing on my 485 application?

To continue your 485 processing, you should either join another company with a similar job or you should be able to join your existing employer once the I-485 is approved.

You don't need an EAD to study full-time. Only if you are planning to work as as a graduate assistant while you study would you need an EAD. You are already in valid parolee status.

More clarifications are required about this new rule, this is a duplicate filing requirement in addition to FBAR

Hi
Here is my situation and looking for any previous experience and suggestion from experts.

I have my EAD valid for 2 years PD 05 EB2. I got a job from another company but vendor says I need to be in his payroll. Job wise everything is good. I want to join him on EAD.
Here are my concerns

1. Should file for AC21 or just keep quite till CIS sends a letter ?
2. If I ensure my new job and old job responsibilities are same, am I safe ?

Do you see any problems or advise me for anything.

Thanks

As long as New Job and Old Job are SAME/SIMILAR and assuming your I-40 is approved & 180 days passed, you should be perfectly fine.

IF
your previous employer is going to revoke I-140
THEN
its better to file AC21
ELSE
just keep quite till CIS sends a letter
END IF

Thanks,
Krishna

I am july 2nd filer , received by R.Williams at NSC and still dont have EAD so I took infopass appointment as my case status still shows pending. I did fingerprints about 2.5 months back. I was told in the infopass that my case is still pending so if i do another set of fingerprints, my case would come up to grab attention of the staff at NSC. So, they did fingerprinting again and lo, i saw 2 luds on the 765 yesterday and today , am I really going to get EAD soon or did the infopass uscis guys just fool me and take the fp just to pretend they did something on my case, anybody else faced this, pls respond.

My first camera was a refurb d80 and there was no way to tell the diff between new or used. I bought a new d300 and love the camera but out of the box it seemed to be in the same great condition as the refurb d80.

Hello,

Has anyone used ICE MILLER as their legal counsel (immigration attorneys)?

I am planning to use AC-21 provisions to change jobs. My new employer is going to use ICE MILLER in Indianapolis to process my H1-B transfer.

I was wondering if anyone could share his/her experience with their staff and general suggestions. I would like to use them for any RFEs or filing any AC-21related documents.

Thanks in advance.

Comments anyone???

I strongly suggest that you do not go for visa stamping (unless there is a family emergency) if you get the new H1B approved. I went for the visa renewal and after nearly 7 months I am still waiting. I am not from any restricted country or have any thing problematic in my name (if you know what I mean). Since these investigations are confidential, I may never know the reason for my situation. From the various forums on this subject, i have gathered that, once you get flagged, you are condemned for life or until you get citizenship. Even if you have done nothing wrong...they like to test your patience again and unfortunately the pleasure is all theirs.

If you have to get stamped, get it from a neutral country such as Canada. A company that can allow you to work from overseas while you are waiting for the visa will help a lot. Also ask your friends to help you with your apartment and other belongings if it takes too long to get the visa. If you do get the visa quickly then just thank your lucky stars for they were more powerful than the VO on that day and time.

wow, thanks man :D
