They might be sending second FP notice every 15mnths of first/consecutive FP's done once it expires in their system..wait for that notice and dont worry about it now..

Thanks all for your replies...perhaps my question is not clear...I would have posted a new thread but was not easily able to figure out how to do so...

Will try to ask my question again...

I am not worried about when my FP expires and things on those lines....
my questions is for jobs that require green card or citizenship... there are some federal jobs out there that require security clearance....and for which they need either green card holders or citizen I beleive...

Now if one has an EAD (no green card yet, 485 pending for more than 1 year) and has got his/her FP done in FEB 2008 what does that mean...does it mean that once you have your FP done there is some kind of security clearance that you get from FBI ?...can you say you have active security clearance..if so what kind of security clearance is that called ?...as I said when I went for the Biometrics/FP (Code 3) they stamped the notice with the following

Biometrics Processing Stamp
ASC Side Code: __________XTE<location>
Biometrics QA Review by ________ (officer's signature)
Tenprints QA Reivew (officer's signature)


Thanks Gurus !!

@Sanjay

Did you used substitute labor for filing I-140? I have heard about instances where people who used substitute are called for an interview even after the final I-485 approval

You can also see how Europe's disintegrated political structure allows it to send far more than the 9800 limit.

Get your wife to use EAD (and hold off on H1 transfer) and wait for your GC card. Many congratulations to you and have a great future ahead..

congrats, phat7! =)

my marriage is done and she entered on H4 now I need to add her to GC.
my marriage date is 2 days prior to my GC approval and now she is in us and how to add her to my GC?

Thanks,

Few facts that you need to get clear.

1) EB2 / EB3 is not based solely on your education/ experience. It depends on job requirements. If you have MS + 10 Yrs exp but the job is say Level 2 Data Analyst (SQL Developer) then it will not qualify for EB2.

2) You can file GC with same employer if he has a opening that requires MS qualification. You need to have qualification before labor is filed it does not matter if you get it while you were employed. This position should be different from your existing job.

If your employer has a job opening for which he cannot hire a citizen / GC holder then you guys can talk to immigration attorney to see if they can file a new labor for you.

I gave you RED for a misleading title for this thread. Be nice and clear.

Thanks for the REDs and as well the GREEN. Appreciate OP for changing the title and gave a green.

Regarding prediction: No change what so ever.

along with the letter you write, get an employment verification letter from your employer and send that with copies of your I94/visa stamp/I797 approval

Dear Lofgren,

Thank you very much for your effort.

janakp,

Almost 100% of your posts have this putting_cold_water on_ones_enthusiasm flavor to it.

Know that there is a skill in even lettting your "pearls of wisdom" be delivered in a non-negative but effective fashion.

For once learn it !

What happens, once he moves to the new employer and his present employer withdraws I-140? For any subsequent H1 transfers/extensions will he will need to have an approved I-140, which is not withdrawn ?

Could there be issues, if new employer does a lay off what happens when perm/i-140 is pending or not filled yet

Correct. Withdrawn I-140 cannot be used to transfer or extend a H1 that has expired (after 6 years).

The following statement may be incorrect. Please consult an attorney
You can again transfer to a new employer for the reminder of the H1 validity without I-140 or PERM. After it expires, to extend or transfer again, you would need an approved PERM or I-140.

Hi -

I just bought a nikon d50 kit and the dealer sold me sigma lens' with the kit. I have since upgraded the camera body to a d70S. Now I am having problems with the lens', autofocus doesnt work all the time. Sometimes it works...then other times it wont focus at all.

Does anyone know if the sigma 18-50mm and the 70-300mm af/mf lens' are compatable with the d70s?
Sometimes Sigma lenses can have issues with different cameras because Nikon makes subtle changes to the way the camera talks to the lenses - changes that work fine with Nikon lenses but on occasion cause havok with third party lenses. If you contact Sigma, they should be able to tell you if an incompatibility between the lens and camera is indeed what is happening, and if so, they should be able to upgrade the processor in the lens (I'm not sure, but they may even do this at no cost).
The dealer told me the sigma lens were better then the nikor lens' because they have a metal mount whereas the mikor was a plastic mount. is this true and is this somethign i really should have worried about?
If you compare the Nikon 18-50mm with the Sigma 18-50mm (your Sigma is the f/2.8 model, right?), then I'm guessing that the Sigma will be better. Compared with the more expensive Nikon 18-70mm zoom that is sold as a kit with the D70s, they're probably about the same (bear in mind that I don't really know, since I've only used the Nikon 18-70 personally). I don't abuse my lenses, so what the lens mount is made of matters relatively little. In many cases a metal lens mount may be a sign of better quality in other areas including image quality, so the dealer wasn't entirely full of it, but I would be wary if someone tried to sell me something other than what I wanted for that reason alone.

I'll be in a conference in SFO and can't make it to diwali mela myself, but I'll like to sponsor an Immigration Voice TX t-shirt to who ever donates maximum time to the IV booth*.

I'll let Needhelp decide who the winner is.

I met a US citizen of Indian origin who came to US in 1991 on a tourist visa and in those days, they managed to get green cards - dunno how. He never visited India. Got married here and still visualizes India as how it was in 80s.

By the way, even today if one marries a USC, one can get GC right away. Actually you get EAD till the GC gets processed.

Besides this, I have come across people coming to US in 1990 on B1, then overstay and convert to H1B.
Thats because 10 year ban and other tough rules etc for illegal stay was passed in 1996. Over the years immigration rules have been tightened.

1986: 2 year conditional GC for marriage to USC was passed. Before that one could marry get GC and divorce the next day. Employers need to do paper checking before they hire people.

1996: Beginning of tightening screws on immigrants.
First harsh anti- immigration was passed. affidavit of support for family based GC.
Massive increase in discretion powers for immigration officers at POE etc.
10 year ban etc on overstay

In fact 1996 rules were so harsh that basically the sheer strict enforcement of these rules on H1Bs makes life miserable.

Plus major difference between 1996 and 1986

In 86 tough rules was a price extracted for amnesty for illegals.

In 1996 not even one clause was pro immigrants.

Hi All,
I used to commute across the border from Canada to work(on h1b) between 2004 and 2006. My passport was stamped just the first time and never after that.

In 2006 we moved to US by road and started living here. Haven't left States since then. Our passports were checked as usual but not stamped at the border although the U-Haul I was driving was inspected and our luggage and other stuff was inspected too.

Now I have received a RFE from USCIS on our pending I- 485's that were filed last August. They want us to prove that our last date of entry was indeed what we have entered in the I-485 form.

Any suggestions on how to respond to this RFE.

Thanks

with this tension i m jusst going to end up with piles. then paskal will have to look at my piles :(

Paskal is busy with schizophrenic members and members with obsessive compulsive disorder and with members who see hallucinations of reciept notices :D:D:D

Those who sign fedex in USCIS never thought their names willbe discussed on the internet
