* The expiration date of an approved labor certification depends on when it was approved.
* For labor certifications approved prior to July 16, 2007, the labor certification expires 180 days after July 16, 2007 – that is, January 12, 2008– unless filed prior to its expiration with the Department of Homeland Security in support of a Form I-140 immigrant petition for alien worker.
* Labor certifications approved on or after July 16, 2007, will expire 180 days from their date of issue, unless filed prior to expiration with the Department of Homeland Security in support of a Form I-140 immigrant petition.

Go to the last question

I am surprised How NU is achieving some of the web faxes. Their home page makes you send a email/web fax to Dems&Reps before it lest you in.

neoneo,

It sound so weird that the GC holders you mentioned dont want to register. Sweet! Tell them that by registering on IV, their GC will not be revoked.

Does the I9 form that we sign with our company have any impact on our 485 processing if we leave the company using AC21.

Thank you.

hi,
i am planning to file eb2 and port my eb3-i140 pd. My current position is system analyst with eb3 job requirement. I can get a promotion but that doesnt qualify for eb2 job requirement. So i am planning to move to a different position, research associate which qualifies for eb2(it requires masters degree) with the same employer. Can i file eb2 with this position and port my eb3-i140 pd? Advice pls.


Thanks

1. You dont need to extend I94. The pending 485 petition keeps you in legal status. You can keep working based on EAD.
2. Yes you maybe able to switch back to H1B. But NO, you may not get 2 years (the clock doesn't stop).

1)My I 94 expires in 2 months.I don't want to extend H1 and I want to use EAD.So how can I extend my I94 if I start using EAD?

2)I finished 4yrs of stay on H1B. If I don't extend H1B now and start using EAD, if by any reason my 485 denies in future, can I switch back to my H1B and work for the remaining 2yrs on H1B?

does anyone havea any idea about the EB3 status for the rest of the world? please experts give us some hope....my PD is May 2006. Any hope soon????

Hi tanlee!
Since you are running Expression Blend 3, you can just open the Page.xaml.cs C# file directly inside Blend itself and write your code.

Cheers!

Anything we can do to complain and bring attention to the EB3 processing delays at Nebraska service center?

As it was they were moving very slow and processing dates have been stuck in Jan 07 for past couple of months. Plus results show hardly any approvals this year so far especially for retrogressed countries.

To top it now a few people having spoken with nebraska are reporting that only 140's (EB3...this doesn't seem to apply to EB2 for some reason) with current priority dates are being processed. That they will only start processing again in May 08. Who's to say come May 08, they won't go back to square one and say "oh we're still processing jan 07 and we will only move a few days each month when it comes to processing dates"

Which would be fine if people weren't waiting, depending on the 140 approvals to a) keep their H1b status 2) go back on h1b status 3) change jobs.

I think this is totally unfair to do this to EB3 category. Why are they picking on EB3 category like this?

Is there anything that can be done?

I can't see it :(

Thank you! Hopefully 8c/page is not big money for me.

All you need is History/Documents report to check upon the status. So that's 8c per case. Opinions are free in PACER.

Hi All,

This is forum for LC Sub cases. I'm on last phase of my L1B(5 years would complete on 2009) so my company a large corp evaluted my case as fit for LC Sub and applied I-140 on July 4th and 485 on July 27.

I have no status on my I-140/485 or 131 since got the Receipts. Got EAD.

Even after my FP the case also was not updated.

Question:
If you have filed your I-140 LC Sub are you seeing any progress on your file?

If yes, which date your I-140 was applied?

Was that standaline or Join filing with I-485?

Which Service center is handling your case?

I dont know your exact visa background, but why do you want to use EAD, it is always better to stay on h1, if you are planning to shift employer then do h1 transfer. There are lots of threads explaining the pros and cons of using AC21 and switchin to EAD etc... but the safest way is to stay on h1.

If you can then i would suggest staying on h1, if you are shiftin employer talk to new one to ask for h1 transfer...

My wife did her MBA and used her OPT before marriage. After a gap of OPT period she again went to school and got a MS degree. During her OPT, she did not work at all. Now she is unable to get second OPT for her recent MS degree.
Is there a way out to get second OPT? Can this new law (29 months OPT) if passed, be used to apply for second OPT.
What should be best approach? Please advice.
Thanks

A student can get an OPT once for every level of education. Since your wife already had an OPT at the "master's" level (it does not matter whether she could earn money during that period or not), she can only get another if she goes for a Ph.D. After completing the Ph.D., she will get one more OPT.

I do not know how the new law, if passed, will be "grandfathered", but I doubt if it can be used for your wife's case.

It took my friend 32 days to recieve the 485 reciept from the day they recieved the fedex package for 485.

Thanks for your answers.

But do most people HAVE the PD on the receipts, or not? What is the usual procedure followed by USCIS?


It is normal not to have PD on the receipts.

I had a soft touch on my LUD for I-485 yesterday. Have received EAD card and been fingerprinted. Waiting for AP approval. Does anyone have a clue what is this in regards to?

Once your wife's starts using EAD, her H status is invalid (H1 or H4).

EAD to H4: Fastest way to get back to H4 would be travel outside USA, stamp, and reenter using H4. You should be maintaining the H1 status all the time.

EAD to H1: In my opinion, she can get back to H1 as long as her H1 is not expired. COS to H1 or extension can not be done past expiry date.

Hope this helps!
