Great job both of you, and glad I could offer inspiration. :D

If I am able to get the PD ported from EB3 to EB2, it will be May 2004 other wise, it will remain May 2004 for EB3. but, at the same time, I am not very sure that PD will be ported successfully, though, in my company, whoever has applied PD porting has got it ported. Is it worth taking the risk ?

I got my GC but my wife's application (based on my 485) is still pending. I think at this point I can switch jobs/go to school full time and it won't affect my spouse's case. Just want to double check on this, any thoughts??

How come EB3 India, PD Jul 2003 (NSC) got approved?? Am i missing here??

Since the current job requirement is bachelor, your employer can not file GC in EB2.:o

Hi All,

First off, thank you for taking the time read this.

Now I did see a lot of discussions around this topic but could not get a real answer to my situation, Can someone please help me understand this better.

Currently working for the same employer who started my GC process, Labour applied and approved in Sep 06, I-40 approved in 2007, 485 pending. I'm with the employer for 6 years now. I have a masters degree (MCA) but the job does not require a masters when I joined. I have my bachelors (both 3yr degrees from India). I have close to 10 years of professional experience.

Do I qualify for the port, assuming my job does not require masters degree. Thank you all in advance.

My question is regarding Citizenship. My mother married my step father in the year 2000. They have 2 children one is 7 the other is 9. My mother did not adjust her status right after they married. she waited a few years. She received her green card on November of 2006. "the one that renews every 10 years. This year she separated him because she cheated on her. They are not legally separated or anything like that. She wants to become a US Citizen but we think it might be a problem since this year they did not file taxes together. When she did her taxes she checked the box that says shes filing married but separately. He does not want the divorce but she does. I told her she should hold of on any divorce and see about getting her citizenship first. What complications can she have since this year they did not file jointly. I appreciate your time and any input

My PD also wrong. for almost last 2 months I am trying DOL through My attorney That includes so far 8 fax letters requesting the same but no results sofar

This is Krishna doing Master's Tennessee State University as a full time student. My I-20 got expired on 12-17-08 but I noticed on 01-02-09. My International advisor told me that I am out of status and I need to apply for reinstatement to USCIS and I am not eligible to work. The process takes 60-120 days. My questions are

1) Do they approve this kind of applications?
2) I will get a case number after applying USCIS. Am I eligible to work (I am working as a Graduate Teaching Assistant) once I get the case number? Or Do I need to wait until the case resolved?


The mistake was done because I was planning to graduate in December and I filled the intend to graduate form too. But it got delayed as I didn't have enough data and I was busy in working on my thesis and research in November and December.

Please help me with this issue.

Thank you

The company will have to sponsor the H1 in full. Not enough to just give you an employment verification letter.

Also as per the rules, you cannot pay for the H1. Only the company can pay for it.

I have no news yet about my 2 July applications.

nkavjs, I am with you brother.

My wife is currently on H4 and she is planning to apply for Residency here in the US on an exchange visa (J1). Let us suppose that she gets her status adjusted here in the US from H4 to J1 and then travels outside the US (say India). Then, she would have to get a J1 visa stamped on her passport. Considering that her spouse (that's me) would be on H1B, it would be rather difficult for her to prove that she would return to India. Do you think there is a greater chance of denial of J1 visa to her at the US consulate? If yes, how do you recommend we go about doing it? Your answer would be appreciated.

LC and I-140 Approved; EB2 PD 22 Feb 2008

The red flag is usually raised when one has immediate relatives who are Citizens or Green card holders. If you have a spouse who is on H-1 it does not mean that you intend to immigrate to the United States. However, the fact that you filed for an immigrant petition might effect her visa application adversely, the consulate is capable of rejecting for any reason and no judicial review exists if the visa is rejected. Good luck.

I dont think it is allowed. One would think that working outside the US while you are waiting for "Adjustment of Status" would be considered abandonment of your I 485

i am trying to renew my passport, do we need to fill the form online and than submit it online or we have to print, instructions are confusing..pls help out

Recently I renewed my Advance Parole (AP), USCIS renewed it for 9 months only. Is it possible to check with USCIS to get a 1 year AP.

Thanks!

Open a thread for yourself!!!

Hi Guys,

In the instructions to file EAD they say to print name and alien receipt number on the back of the photos.

What number should we write? I-485 receipt number or receipt number for last EAD?

Can someone please respond?

Thanks

Based on these reasons:

1. EB legals doesn't really count when it comes to the consideration. For one, the numbers that are suffering are too small; for two, what you go through is nothing in the eye of Kennedy's --- you have a job, you have enough food, you are not dying in the desert....you are having a pretty decent life, except that you wanted more;

2. Senators like Sessions can still argue that "so many legal people are waiting in the line", because you are indeed still waiting even though you can now file 485. So allow you to file doesn't really change their argument;

3. What makes you think that if you shut up they are going to have a easy day? It's not like that you have any teeth to bite any way.

So the PD moves forward is definitely a good thing regardless how CIR plays out.


Mark my words.... President Bush will single handedly make sure to pass the bill as it is.....

No one can stop it.

Do you all think it is just a co incidense that all the dates became current just when this bill (which was supposed to be in grave :rolleyes: ) is revived by those who extremely opposed it?

Do you know how many people will stop giving a damn, because they just filed their 485 s?
People like me who are result of bad practice employers are still here, and lucky ones will depart.....

We have been dealt a crucial blow here.
