I also have the same question "Please provide information concerning your eligibility status:", what should I provide in that text box.
Please suggest.

when I check 2 yrs old EAD application my attorney had used (c)(0)(9)
Is that right or it should be (c)(9) or
it should be (c) (09)

Please help folks


I put application date as when ever I signed the form and dated it. I think its no big deal, if you attach copy of previous EAD...

Wow!

would that invalidate the SSN?

Practice what you preach.
BTW myself and majority of members on this forum hasn't replaced any American worker.

Yeah, right :D! BTW your long hopeless wait for gc has driven you crazy :D

Congratulations on your approval. Yor are really lucky and we envy you.

I know the systems is so much screwed up. There are so many frustrated people with their priority dates EB2 before August 2004 and could not file I-485 until this July. Its a wonder USCIS approved a case with priorioty date of August 2005. :mad: :confused: the system is so disgusting.

Remember one and only one thing prevents FIFO (First in First Out) for I485 approvals and that is FBI name-check delays. I do not believe FIFO is not honored due to USCIS processing problems.
(BEC backlogs also inhibit GC FIFO but hopefully that will be over by Sep 2007)

This guy's security checks were cleared timely and he got a visa number as soon as they were available.

It is rumored that USCIS in last month assigned visa numbers to applicants without FBI security-check completion. However, these GCs will not be approved if FBI checks are not completed by Sep 30, 2007 and the visa numbers will be returned to DOS. Hence, it remains to be seen how many visa numbers will be wasted in FY 2007 despite the fact that the visa bulletin says U August onwards.

Next to retrogression, this is a serious problem. But the irony is that retrogression allows FBI to enjoy, at our cost, years of delay in doing their job. However, you can also be so unlucky that your name-check does not clear when years later your PD becomes current

you can travel until the Expiry date stamped on your Visa in your passport allows you to reenter.

For example, if your visa expires on 15th March 2007, you better be here on 14th :-)) and when you leave after that, you will need to have the visa revalidated at a consulate/embassy, which, I think you are aware of based on your post.

Unless you use AP to travel outside, you can work on EAD and status of H4 is not going to be affected..So dont fear, just pose the question to lawyer in immigration-law.com. Or else you can search in the advanced q/a in that website u may find answer..

ags123, not to alarm you, but is it possible to apply now for your wife? Since you already got your 485 approved and crossed the proverbial line into the gc land.

If you see the link I submitted earlier today, it is a reality that most voters are fed up with their representatives. From what I hear all the time, it seems the tendency is that people will vote against incumbents, regardless of which part they represent. Typically whoever is coming fresh - Dems or GOP - would be more sensitive to citizens problem and would think twice before voting for something in spite of thousands of pledges and calls against it. In my view, not necessarily Democrats would control the House, but even if turns out that is the case, it may not help us a lot. The truth is that if many incumbents get kicked out, that would be a powerful message that voters out there are not happy with directions they are taking, mainly on immigration, and therefore a bill on our behalf may continue to be dragged down further, because I strongly believe that many fresh reps would think twice to vote when phones are ringing non stop.

I am sorry if that is sad, but that is the truth.
I would like to discuss two issues

1) Is there a reasonable chance for Democrats to take control of the House after Nov elections.

2) What would that mean for skilled legal Immigrant community (aka will my GC come faster :))

It looks like Americans are fed up with the war in Iraq and other issues. Especially here in TX there is one seat definitely going to Democrats ( Tom Delay's seat). Would a Democrat majority make passing SKIL a slam dunk ?

There should be a good faith job offer from your GC employer as of today. You can decide not to join the job after your I-485 filing and 180 days there after.


Hi,

If I am working with X company & Y company is ready to file GC.
(Assuming Y has no objections even if I do not join the company at all)
Is it mandatory for the candidate to join company Y at certain stage which has file GC?
I would appreciate your comments.

Regards,
Sanjeev.

If your calculations are right then this is really really bad.

I thought this would be the most appropriate place to post.
I am on my 3rd year of H1-B (non-technical field), just moved to a new company and was going to start my process toward getting a gc in the next month or so. Now, with all of this, I am very confused.
Do you folks think that it is most appropriate to sit tight and wait to see what happens? or to just go for it now?
I'd appreciate your input, as I have to make a decision soon.

If your employer is sponsoring your GC (LC and I140 by spending their money) then go for it.

give the guy some credit. He might have taken the risk by jumping in the PERM bandwagon early while many like me took safe approach by filing traditional LC:mad:

One of my buddies got his GC approved yesterday and his Priority Date is June 2005, EB2 India. I am here waiting since 2004 March to file for my I485. There are no methods to USCIS Madness.

Any update on this. I am also planning to go to the school with my I485 pending. Just wanted to make sure that I will not get ito any issues with my pending I485.

[QUOTE=mharik]Hi ,

Can you use portability(i.e, I-140 approved and I-485 pending more than 6 months) for studies in USA or outside US????


ANYONE????

Can we somehow promote on another tri state radio...rbcradio.com I missed out on listening to this one...

Sorry you had trouble finding the location. The intersection of roads was the nearest I could suggest.

Two of is. infact three including Ulises wife Dana were there. The Starbucks we were at was next to Panera Bread on the corner near a large Kohls store and Walmart.

Once again I am sorry not to have had the chance to meet you today.

Please feel free to send me a PM, give me a telephone number and I will call you.

Hey DPP...

I am sorry you didn't make it... meeting with Lynne was so enriching, I am sure we'll have more meetings to keep setting up our Chapter to promote solutions for all of us.

Lynne:
Thanks again for taking the lead of this campaign... Let me know if there is something that I ca do to assist you. I'll get back to you later if there is something in my end.

on your substitute W2.

So i should report the pay for sep to dec in substitute W2 though i have not received it from my employer right and also report to DOL for the same.

Several weeks ago, I sent two messages to Obama about immigration issues, using "contact us" link on the whitehouse.gov website. Surprisingly today (after so many days) I got an email receipt back from them. Even though their message only had a standard reply, but it looks like some one is actually reading the messages (otherwise I would have gotten a standard reply immediately).

My suggestion to IV & everyone else here is to use this method to send out our concerns to the president. Specifically request recapture of visa numbers...add that it will help resolve the housing market problem.

Hi ,

My 180 days have passed and I have an approved 140. My job was filed in 2002 in EB2 as s/w engg. In this job i moved to project manager in IT. Now I am getting a job offer for an awesome company, nice pay and as a program manager. the role is still in IT but it will be more managing.

Would this be a safe bet to take by choosing AC-21?

Please reply. i need to respond to them in a couple of days....

/* I am not a lawyer - this is obvious but I have to put a disclaimer to satisfy some members here - anyway it is your life and you have to think and take the decisions */

IMO you should be OK. just don't do anything foolish like telling INS about your AC 21, and keep doing some technical work once in a while to justify your 140.

Unless you take risks you will not gain anything.
