Do you care to share what you had to do?

Will we be able to find by the end of 2006 wether CIR bill is passed or not ?

To all IV members (and others), who have decided not to participate in the rally due to various reasons, I request you to give a very serious thought, and consideration, before reaching the final decision.


WD, I will either participate in the rally if my schedule allows it (I teach) or contribute towards it.

Hi Hebron,
I will get my money if i complain to DOL. But, do i have to stop working at the same client now. Will there be any problem if i continue working with the same client.
Thanks,
Srikanth

You have a valid H1 with the new employer (client), so there should be nothing wrong working with the client.

Have you or your client signed a contract with the parent company? If you have not signed a contract, there is nothing to worry. I would assume your client may have signed a contract with your parent company(old employer). If that's the case the issue is between you current employer (client) and you parent company (old employer).

You may also want to check with your attorney.

wats goin on folks....I just got this news from my buddy,started surfing IV and found this thread....

See my answers below:

a) Yes. You need to file another H1B+COS and wait for its approval. Wont be counted in cap.

b) Yes, you can. It is a simple application. You may even travel outside of USA and get an H4 stamp from a US consulate in India/Canada/Mexico, without any COS application.

c) Yes you can file for AOS. But at the time of filing of AOS you should have an "intention" to join the employer permanently, and the offered permanent position should be available at that time, and the employer should have an "intention" to employ you permanently.

You can file for Consular Processing, but for that you might need to file an I-824 now.
Again the same things mentioned above for AOS applies.

-Morchu


a.) If i switch to H4 and after few months i get a project..can i go back to H1..->

b.) Can i file for H4 on my own..is it complicated?

c.) if i change to H4..and my PD becomes current (PD Dec 2005)
.) Can i file for AOS..as my 140 is approved..
.) Suppose i go back to desh ..can i file for consular processing..if my PD become current


thank you!

Its not easy but can be done. The cover letter in my case didn't work - no way of knowing because my application was filed in July when EVERYONE was current. Lawyer screwed up and didnt file in February 07 with the I 140. Below is what I got back from TSC re: cross charge- I had to jump through the hoops for them to consider it. There are some good and informative posts on .

"Today I received an email from my lawyers office who had requested a congressional inquiry with TSC. Good news is that my congresswoman's office is really efficient - they followed up till they got the confirmation. Now atleast I know they will consider it as CC.

Below is what TSC wrote back. Now the wait for visa bulletins and processing dates resumes!

"The message was sent to management. Yes they can be charge cross chargeability. However, at this time the files can not be request due to the large volume of work the unit has. Cases are process accordingly and chronological.
Will sent another message to management, but this request in expediting these cases does not meet the service criteria.
Thank you for your inquiry and please do not hesitate to contact us again if you have further questions regarding this case.

Texas Service Center

Congressional Relations " "
I am trying to get TSC to accept my cross-chargeability without much luck. I would really appreciate it if you could spare few mins to answer a few questions:

1. Will an infopass appointment help or a call to customer service help?

2. Do you have the format of the letter sent by your congresswomen's office?

3. Is it better if my lawyer requests the congressman's office or should i do it?

4. If i speak to my congressmans office, should i inform my attorney? I hope the letters sent by the congressmans office do not undo any work my attorney might have done.

5. How do we know that cross chargeability has been accepted. Does USCIS always send a letter informing that they have accepted the request for cross-chargeability?

Any help is really appreciated.

Hi kak1978,

what's the process for getting the "Account verification letter for Immigration purposes" from BOA?

Thanks!

I had a account in Bank of America, and they sent me a letter when i asked them to send a "Account verification letter for Immigration purposes" They charged me $10 for that and took around a week. See if you can open a account at a local bank and try transfering the money to that account, Before you decide on opening a account , confirm if they issue such a letter.

Ruchigup, Are you sending AC21 document? I am also leaving my current employer and taking AC21 route. I am retaining my lawyer. He is supportive and hopefully, will not ask retainer fee as he knows that i paid all my gc cost.
Can you please share your AC21 experience so far ? Is your new job exactly similar ?
I have not done AC21 yet. My join date is September 2nd. I am kind of planning to not file AC21.

According to the following document from USCIS they issued receipts for approx 150K applications for AOS in sept. So my estimate of the total back log is


June filers 75k
July - 25k
August 200k
Sept 150k
Oct 50K

Total = 500k

http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/APPLICATIONS%20FOR%20IMMIGRATION%20BENEFITS_Septem ber07.pdf

is in RED.

Thank you for all the responses.

One question remains though that what does it mean when the I-94 says paroled till 3rd March 2009?
Not much, really!

How does one prove the legal status in the country?
Since your wife entered the US by showing AP, her legal status is "Pending AOS" and the proof is the USCIS receipt notice of I-485 that you filed for her!

If EB2 PD is 1 APR 2004 then what does the ProcessingTimeFrame Date(August 25, 2006) mean for I-485 in Texas Service Center.

Can anyone clarify. Guys exuse my Ignorance...I just want to know the rule


sury,

What that means is "All applications received before August 25, 2006 AND whose PD is current , are being processed"

If your PD is 2003 but you filed your I-485 after Aug'2006 your app will not be adjudicated.
If you filed before Aug'2006 but your PD is after Apr'2004, your app will not be adjudicated.

If your PD is before Apr'2004 and you filed your app before August 25, 2006, your app will be adjudicated..

This is to make sure people don't start expecting approvals and calling them left and right one day after filing if their PD is current. they need some time for every application, so they put in this 'processing date' which works in conjunction with 'priority date' to check if a case is approvable at any given time. They normally won't entertain calls enquiring about a case if the filing date does not fall within this processing date.

One has 2 pages the other has 4 pages
Shouldn't really matter.. unless the IO is anal about it..
I would send in a G325A along with a cover letter stating my full name, SS, alien #, if any, just to be safe.

Thanks a lot again i will contact DOL @ the earliest


Why are you writing as if you are writing a text message ? Are you writing from a computer or your phone ? I have a doubt about your authenticity. When did you come to US. Is this your first employer ? If you are not new you should be knowing the answers to all these questions ..

My wife has a non-working SSN. Will she need to convert it (or apply for a new SSN) to working SSN once she starts working persuant to EAD?

You do not have to apply for new SSN but do the following taken from SSA website:

If your work eligibility has changed or if have become a U.S. citizen, you must apply for a replacement card. Your replacement card will no longer read “Not Valid for Employment,” but you will retain the same Social Security number.

To get a replacement card:

Complete an Application For A Social Security Card (Form SS-5); and
Show us documents proving your:
Immigration status;
Work eligibility; and
Identity.
Take (or mail) your completed application and documents to your local Social Security office.
All documents must be either originals or copies certified by the issuing agency. We cannot accept photocopies or notarized copies of documents.

We will mail your number and card as soon as we have all of your information and have verified your documents.
For details about the type of evidence you must provide, see Social Security Numbers For Noncitizens (Publication No. 05-10096) or Documents You Need for a Social Security Card.

Hi Logiclife
The 2004-2005 more usuage of EB visas for Indians is done because those were approved through AC21's unused visas i believe between 1999-2000 which are quota independent and not just from the annual quota of 140K. Hence in 2004-2005 there were more usuage. Starting from 2006 only thing left is the annual quota of 140K with per country quota of 7% at the max which has to be split among several EB categories in some proportions (roughly 1/3 among EB1, EB2, Eb3).The spillovers within 7% alone can be redistributed within a country's EB quota in the final quarter of the year. Hence the max India can get is 7% no matter how much gets spilled over from the rest of the world. THe only way to get the spillover back into the picture is another law enactment everytime it happens to get it back which is slow and painful process. Hence in nutshell to remove retrogression the easiest way is to remove country cap is or increase it . Else it is always going to stay even if annual quota is increased or through anyother measures. Hence I would recommend positively IV to focus on doing it and not mere increasing the quota.

thanks dude..
