Thanks, I do have the copy of I-140 approval notice with receipt number and all that info.
It's hard to find employers (once again, non consulting ones) who commit to file my GC application again. At best, I get a "we'll gladly transfer your H1-B visa but no commitment on GC" sort of response. Considering a worst case scenario, if I dont have a newly approved PERM by May 2013 and my original PD (July 2008) becomes current, what happens then?
Thanks again!

Dear Attorney,
I live in boston and come under Texas service center, my I-140 was approved from texas.
But my pending 485 was sent to Nebraska Service center.
I am now trying to file EAD application,
I am confused if i need to send the EAD application to NSC (based on my pending 485) or should i send to Texas service center (based on my address jurisdiction).
My RFE's have come from nebraska only.
So could you please clairfy where i need to file EAD. I am doing a paper based filing and hence this question.
Thanks

One of my colleague did withdraw his PF in an exactly same situation (not in TCS though), and you can definitely file 10C and 19 directly with the PF office without involving your employer. PF administration is now much more efficient and strictly works on behalf of employees, not employers. Even if any PF amount is not deposited by the company, PF has started taking immidiate actions against them.
Thank you richi.
Iam also thinking on the same lines.
Also looking forward to any TCS PF withdrawal experiences.
Thanks

Unfortunately Yes...i had infopass appointment on monday and IO told me samething. NC has to be cleared before 485 can be approved. But they are targeting they will clear NC within 180 days after Feb 2009.

Guys, I can see the energy level drop down after the HR 5882 did not pass in the Judiciary Committee. However we have to keep trying and part of that effort is keep working with lobbyists through IV core. During the next 6-9 months we need to collect enough money so that when the time comes IV Core is able to lobby hard on our behalf and get the necessary measures passed.
On that note I am starting this thread for people who would like to contribute $50 or more. It is the 1st of the month and all of us got our paychecks, so no reason not to.(Remember Feed the Pig Ad? Well IV is as important as feeding the pig - so please do your part).
Additionally for every $2500 collected I will put in an additional $50.

The AA battery holder is for LAST RESORT use only. It was never designed for continous use. If you did it would get very expensive very quickly.
You didn't say what kind of batteries. If they were Ni-Cads or NiMH, they only supply 1.2 volts. The D100 requires 1.5 volts.
Also, you might try mounting a newer AF lens to it just to see if its the older lens. Hopefully the lens you used isn't pre-1977. If so, you may have damaged the body.

As she yet to file 485, it is important for her to keep the valid non-immigrant status till she files AOS. Yes, she can go for F1, if you plan to use EAD and abandon your non-immigrant status. Unless your H1 transfer is approved, her H4 will not get extended. Therfore don't worry about the extension. File F1 ASAP,

Guess if mailing out of the country is an option I should ask my friend to do it, guess FEDEX or UPS is quite reliable.
So If I am lucky and my case gets picked/approved while in India then I can get the card mailed there...
but in any case, I have asked my company's lawyer also, will post here once I hear back from him...
Now begins another waiting game ...

Whenever you want to switch jobs, you have to apply for a whole new H1.
Having one already does not make things faster or easier, except when you are already in the US. In this case, you can switch jobs as soon as you file the new H1, you don't have to wait for approval. However, there is a big risk:
what if the new H1 is denied? You already quit your previous employer and cannot work for the new one anymore...Then you are in big trouble.
How often does a denial happen in a case of H1 "transfer"? Do you know? Why would a transfer be denied?

seahawks you said:
A passport must me valid at least 6 months is my understanding when I got my H1 renewed.
Could you please provide me a link to an official website that can confirm this?

Hi there,
I had a quick question on the best/quickest way to mail Advance Parole paper filing application to USCIS:
I would like to get some sort of tracking but the address I had was a PO Box in Nebraska.
I am guessing I would need to use USPS to mail the package - what kind of mailing do I need to do so that it reaches quickly and I get tracking that it got delivered to USCIS.
My concern was that whether sign on receipt option would work or not given that this is a PO Box address.
I would really appreciate your input on this. Thanks!

With a bachelors degree and 10 years of experience (ignoring the CA Certification/License), I do not see why you would not qualify for EB2. To qualify for EB-2 it is not always a necessity to have a masters degree.
Generally, if you have a bachelor degree and at least 5 years of experience, and as long as your future job/position for what your Labor Certification will be filed requires either a Masters degree or a bachelor degree with 5 years of experience, will qualify you for EB2 category.
"Generally, a bachelor's degree plus five years experience with another employer could qualify for EB2, if described correctly under the current U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) interpretations for the EB2 classification."

Yes you could request that the same I-485 be used for your new I-140, as one member has suggested, you could also ask for the priority date of the old I-140 to be ported to your new I-140 if you are worried about priority dates for EB-1. Provided the old I-140 is not revoked.

My EB-3 labor PD is 02/2007, my I-140 is stuck-up in NSC for more than one year now.
Considering the present trend, I decided to move on to EB-2. I pressurized my employer to file for another PERM for EB-2 which they are now reluctantly doing. Let me see what happens :rolleyes:

Hi,
I work as a full time employee (h1b) for a company abc in CA. In Oct 09 they laid off a couple of people and the attorney instead of revoking a laid off persons h1b sent a note to USCIS to revoke my h1b while im still employed. They informed USCIS to ignore the note they sent but USCIS ignored and cancelled my H1. In the meantime attorney files another h1b and got h1b approval (without i94 stub)
I was getting paystub till now and today they called me and said I was out of status due to the mistake they did. They didn't inform me about the out of status from Nov 07 2009. They basically wanted to cover their mistakes. Now yhey are asking me to go to Canada or Mexico to get H1B stamped. Here are my concerns
1) What will be implication in the embassy for such situations where I'm totally unaware of our of status situation
2) Is there chances of my H1B getting rejected in Canada or mexico due to out of status and would they ask me to go to India from Canada/Mexico ( i don't mind going to india but I have 5 month old baby and woudn't want to risk the travel from US to Canada/mexico to India)
3) Or is it advisable to go to india and get it stamped
My company has given a letter stating that it was their error to USICS and agreed to bear all the expenses for travel.
I need your urgent help and all of your comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sudha

Bush and the others were sure to have a bill by the end of the year 2006, did you see any bill (beside the Bill wall) ?
No, so don`t worry...nothing will happen.
well they tried it did'nt happen because of Republican controled house, we now have Democratic controled house who favor more towards CIR, I think Bush working with Republican senators to get approval for his bill
atleast this is the only issue where president and democrats come close to agreeing on,
Question, does Democrats puts politics ahead by not giving credit to Bush for resolving immigration is the real issue
I do see more chances this year ofcourse this will be do or die situation for many immigration hopefuls

Thanks guys for your replies. My employer has more than 100 consultants and I think it is a stable financially. I never had any problems in my salary. I was paid on time always.
So you mean after appeal they can approve my I140?
I do not know my PD. But my labor was filed sometime in Dec 2006.
