as one becomes benificiary of the primary applicant

Somewhat the same situation happened to me, and my attorney advised this in order to avoid the filing:
You may call your bank and hold the checks that you sent second time. If INS finds that the check is not 'withdrawable' they will not file your application.

- Got wife's maiden name changed when I lost her passport... couple of years back. Recollect it took ~a week.

- Present Indian immigration statuc: ECNR, etc. - check your password. It should be ECNR if you've travelled this far... :)

- 16).Alien registration card number/Employment registration card number_____ (i dont have any of these numbers)

Don't recollect needing any of the above numbers.

- In our case, it was new passport in lieu of lost passport.

If you get in early (i.e. before they close for lunch, but preferably as soon as they open) they'll help you out with all that - generally nice & friendly folks in CGI.

In the first place, without knowing the job details how a person gets an offer? by the way LCA number will never give a detailed description of nature of job.

Hi Gurus,

I got an offer from a company and having the LCA case number with me. Is there any way that I can find the job description using my LCA case number? or else anyone tell me how to find the job description?

Thanks

Hi All,

We are devastated. We got robbed last weekend. We lost everything including our green cards. After 6 years of wait, we got the cards in May. Unfortunately, we did not make any photocopies. We applied for replacement of cards using I-90 forms. Has anyone been in such a situation ?

Please help us with any suggestions.

Thanking you all.
I am very sorry for your situation. I hope it doesn't happen to anybody else.

The right thing to do would be to first report the robbery to Police, which you must have done. Get a copy of that report and get with your attorney or another competent attorney to how to tell USCIS that you have lost your Green card due to Robbery. You can also call USCIS CS number to find out what steps you have to follow in a case like this.

I am no lawyer, so get with a competent lawyer ASAP and get this fixed.

Best of Luck.

What was your status when you filed? H1 or L1 or F1? Have you filed before and got rejected? Were you in deportation proceedings before?

Is your PD current in June?

The reporter does not seem to know the issue at all and coming from an Indian/Pakistani background painted the whole issue as if it were a Desi issue.

Dude writes that visas dry up and he quotes USCIS spokes person saying we are sitting at 45,000 from week 1 and haven't still moved an inch. Damn it! Gimme a break! Get real

The attorney featured sings to his tune and talks about all things Indian, Indian companies, Indian nationals, India. Wow! Does any one need more ammunition to take charge and paint H1B issue as Indian issue? Sorry to be harsh but this is more of a bad press than any thing helpful.

Then he goes on to say that people are waiting for GC because of strict rules?? Excuse me! until Jul 2007 rules were not implemented. This guy says strict rules.

Can anybody or Can any attorney respond to my question??

Thanks in advance.

i also find it disturbing that USCIS is trying to define its own definition of employer-employee relationship. As long as a company pays a person, that person is employee. They have no right to demand that there needs to be immediate supervisor from same company onsite or that company needs to provide the itinerary for employee.
I know job market is bad, but hunting down H1b's is not going to make it better.

I saw those guys in the situation room. I will look like their grandfather.:mad:

Everyone looked old - but they were great, they are in every child's text books, bridges are named after them, countries declare national holidays for their birthday

So Andy - yes - you will very much be assimmilate so no worries :)

in politics everything is give and take + "my side needs to get the best deal" attitude.

I am conflicted about Dream.

On the one hand, if it passes, the illegal community is pacified for the short term and if legal immigration is taken up immediately, they will not oppose us.

On the other, if it does not pass, we might have to wait for CIR or whatever else. Neither Republicans nor Democrats care to sponsor a bill just for our issues. They will continue to talk about amnesty vs enforcement.

Unless of course, we as a community step up, meet with lawmakers repeatedly, get them to take our issue seriously............

Who gave you that assurance....?:confused:

Seriously I pray for this bill to fail...if there is no relief for legals. I am not interested to pay for the illegal and their docs to be processed with my money.

I agree but this statement "previous editions of the I-485 form accepted" sounds like a generic one because today's FAQ clearly relates to "EB I-485" and the word "Should", not "may or can"... thats what puzzling me...

Thanks

Dear All,
Today, one of my Friend�s I-485 got returned from Mail room due to Filing fee missing.

He is 100% sure that he attached 325$+70$ filing fee along with application, he has photocopy too to prove his stand.

He is lucky, that he is re- filing it again, my question is , what happens, if the file get returned due to mail room clerks error . Can we refile again after 17th Aug,2007 ?

What proof we have to make sure that we filed properly, will USCIS honor our proof ( that is photocopy of all the document we retain ) as a proof that we filed properly.

Hi bijualex29,
Can you please confirm with your friend whether his 140 LUD (Last Update Date) changed or not. I want to know whether they check our 140 status before or after the data entry.

Hello folks,

First of all thankyou for your input in advance.

I just switched from OPT to H1-B and got my I-797A. I am planning to go to my home country at the end of the year to get my passport stamped.

My employer gave me the lower portion of the I-797 which has I-94 on the right and it says the lower left portion is for personal records. However, my employer cannot find the upper portion of the I-797. I have a copy of the full I-797. Can you please advice what I should do? I need to give I-94 when I depart the US. So I will have anly the left lower portion of the I-797 to apply for the visa. Is it OK? Again, my employer has misplaced the upper portion of the I-797A. Do I need it the upper portion for visa purposes?

Thank you!

Something does not sound right here. How can the employer "misplace" the upper portion of the approval notice? In the first place, why did he even separate the upper portion and the lower portion? He is supposed to give you the entire document as a single piece of paper.
Some thing really does not sound right here. By law, he is required to give you the approval notice.

my 485 got denied lastweek as my previous employer withdrawn approved 140. I changed employer after 1year of 485 pending. I am filing MTR..

so r u on EAD or H1B? wondering if you were able to continue working on EAD.

its a gray area and even lawyers are not sure 100%.

Also,

1. How long does it take to find MTR?
2. What documents are needed?
3. Did you informed CIS about job change?

This is a very good point ,if illegal under guest worker program can pursue a path to a citizenship after 6yrs provided that they can show they have paid taxes, learn English and pass background check...Why can't we ask the same for us, we have entered US legally without breaking any law, are paying taxes and are highly educated let aside learn English. And the senators have agreed about getting in line or behind the line (First in first out) approach for getting Citizenship, we are just asking for GC ;) ?

It should be new procedure for each person.

Thanks for your information. I have filled out my information and added spouse and child pending cases after adding my case. When i tried to start new procedure for spouse and child, it is giving me error that i have already notified the address change. Asked me to contact back after 45days.
I guess, it should be ok.

have been using mobissimo.com search engine for flights and works gr8. It's searches across all other travel sites. :p

Thanks for the good words. My patience is wearing thin as this has been going on for since the start of the year and I have seen PERM applications filed later than mine getting approved. My concern has to do more with the employer keeping me in the dark about the outcome and at the time H1 expires just lets me GO citing rejection or audit!! You can call me paranoid as the filing hasnt materialized and me in the 7th year just adds to the distress.

Just get the receipt number from your employer and check the status yourself.

Replied RFE with copy of 485 receipt and copy MTR approval and got 3 years H1 extension until 2013.

Thanks Everyone
