First of all if you are the employee for whom the case has been filed, you should NOT be contacting the Dept. of Labor. The purpose of the DOL as stated in the regs is to notify the USCIS that there are no able, willing, or qualified US workers for the position, and that's why they are granting you the position. If you call, especially over and over as you have indicated, that's a big red flag. Leave it alone and let your attorney or employer contact them.

A very much TRUE statement....

Hi All,

I need urgent help and suggestions for my situations..

I have been working with company A since March'2006. They applied my GC processing with substitute labor of Nov'2004 and got I-140 approved.

In July'2007 applied I-485 which is pending for myself and my wife as well.

EAD card has arrived recently with 2 years of validity till Oct'2010 both for myself and my wife. AP is also approved recently.

With all this I am still on H1-B until 11/15/2008. Since it is going to expire, I have asked my employer to file for my extension.. They came up with very vague options and questions which I have posted down in bold with 1 and 2.

1) We have filed your PERM application for the new position which qualifies for EB2. Please note that since you have an approved I-140, have filed your I-485 and have an EAD card, we will no longer need to maintain your H-1B status. Instead, we will withdraw your current H1 and save the remaining H-1B time left on this H1 for use in the future (if the need arises).

OR

2) If you wish to maintain your H-1B status, then (since your position has changed and we have filed a new PERM application on your behalf), we will need to amend your H-1B visa. Please complete the attached questionnaire at your earliest convenience and revert to me with a copy of your latest I-94 card. Please note that this is not an extension and so there is no need to file the H4 extension for your wife/family.

Please advise which option you want to go with. I strongly recommend option #1, but it is entirely your choice if you want to go with option # 2 and maintain your H-1B status. Please let me know how you want to proceed with your H-1B status.

If anybody come acrossed similiar type of situation or experienced already let me know and this would really help in taking the decision.

It's very emergency..

Thanks,
Raj.

Hi everyone, If you have a H1B visa in your passport valid until Sep. 30 of 2009, but had quit from your old job in Nov. 2008 and are currently out of USA. Is it still possible to transfer your H1B to another employer and return back to USA on the old visa?

Does anybody have any recent experience?Which office to go, what documents to take. I currently have an out of state license that is going to expire in Dec...

Ah never mind, I didn't realize it's old news.

Thanks for your prompt response.
- still I feel that only because I received just now after 8 years this A#, seems to me that only at this time I'm registered as an immigrant?
That is what alien number means in English ? Sorry.

Vali:

USCIS assigns Unique A# for each individual, who files I485 , some people recieves A# even in I140 too.

When your adjustment of status application(I485) approves then you will be registered as Permanent Resident.

Dear Members,

One of the IV member recieved a phone call from Ombudsman office and is as follows.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I received a phone call (WOW!) from a sweet lady from CIS Ombudsman's office. I sent letters to his office and in the letter I mentioned my cell #. Anyway she wants a real person who got deniel. I told her that my friend got deniel (IVens are my fried). Anyway, she sent an email too after I asked her to give her info so that my friend can send her his case details. Unfortunately, the email I received shortly after the conversation, looks like general and does not have her ID. Please PM me if you like to hear more about the phone call.

==================
Thank you for your correspondence to the Office of the Citizenship and Immigration Services Ombudsman (CIS Ombudsman).

As we have received several inquiries such as yours, we are currently discussing these issues with USCIS and reviewing their policies and procedures regarding adjudication of these petitions.

If you have evidence of a specific I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status case that you feel was erroneously denied due to USCIS not adhering to AC21 guidelines, we kindly ask that you please immediately forward us a case problem request, including a copy of your denial notice, detailed information as to the reasons for the immediate denial, and, if appropriate, evidence that you have submitted a Motion to Reopen or Reconsider.

The issue is gaining attention. This is the exact time to crack it down. Guys, who have not sent the letters yet, please do now.

With the issue gaining momentum, we will defintely get some relief for AC21 issues. Please do send letters

Why not? 140 is not retrogressed. Anytime you can file I-140. So if i-485 is valid between Aug 1-17 then you can file both between that dates also.

As per the last revised visa bulletin, the extension period for filling I-485 is Aug 17. But it talks about only I485 and not about I-140.

So can anyone confirm, if one can file I-140 and I-485 concurrently from Aug 1 to Aug 17.

Wow didnt know everybody here are Super Immigrants....... legal ...Illegal and now super..... whats next duper immigrants

I don't think there's anyway around it. Try to visit over a weekend, leave Friday evening and return Sunday. If you not you will loose the your PR which would be a waste.

There shouldn't be any Payroll at all.
Ask them not to run payroll until you get approved EAD. Having Payroll might create issues in future.

As her manager is helpful, tell them she will not work until she gets EAD approval.

Haha...so does this mean that no one really knows what OP stands for? :D

earliest is 120 days from expiration

My wife's ead was filed in April even though hers was due for expiry only in Oct 2008. Yday her ead was approved (her online status read "card ordered".

I have also read about one other case in , where the poster had filed too early but still received approval. Only problem is the new ead is valid for a year starting from the filing date, not 1 year from the expry of the old ead.

Hello everyone,
I went online to check the status of my I-485 and it displayed me the following message

Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS

Current Status: Document mailed to applicant.

On December 19, 2007 we mailed the document to the address we have on file. You should receive the new document within 30 days. If you do not, or if you move before you get it, call customer service.


What does it mean? Does it mean that I-485 is approved.

Pls guide.

Kapil
call customer service as it says they will tell you exactly waht happened
