Done.
I would have liked another field which asks how much money has been moved away from USA due to uncertainty with the wait for green card.
Personally, I wish I had parked my savings money in USA, but due to green card limbo I ended up moving all that money outside to another country to invest.
Only reason, I am not sure where my life would end without knowing an answer to my green card application.
I think this is a key point which is missing in the survey.

I am sorry for posting in here, but I was wondering if someone actually went in person to the Houston Consulate to get their passport renewed. Also, do we need to have any reason to attend in person at the Consulate such as emergency, etc.
I am from India and my passport is expiring on Aug 17. I read before in the forum that it is better to go in person to renew the passport. Any experiences please let me know.
Thanks a bunch
Go in person that would be best. Houston will not respond to mail or phone calls, Their whole switch board is messed up. I had tough time when I sent it to Houston.

how about including people who will be dying to the prayer list? Please dont include common people. Please bring your checkbooks for prayer meeting. After prayers you will get option to donate to charity.

Thanks for the responses. I think I will call USCIS and inquire and just to be on the safe side will send in a G325A separately with a letter. Ofcourse, will try getting a response from my attorney's office too. Thanks again.

Reposting this I-485 Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) link again. This gives us a clue of what is checked when the packet is opened in the mail room and then further down with the AO.

I am glad, member's comments helped you. All said and done. What is the right thing to do now? Expose "this company" as you call them..
Why don't you post the name of company as you already posted the state and city they operate from, and name of the person with whom you have been going back and forth as you said in your post? That will help everybody including the authorities to take them to task if they are doing anything illegal..
gapala, I agree with you. However, please let me talk to my friend and I will probably PM you about the details. I do not believe its a good idea to post out here. Sorry.

I am not sure this will count as an illegal behavior. Of course, I am not a lawyer. But companies typically ask for relocation reimburesement and lawyer expenses, etc. to be paid back pro-rated, in case the employee leaves within a year or so.
Again, this is not really asking for money for labor, but just making sure that the company gets their expenses back in case employee leaves within an year.
Btw, I do not have any such agreement with my company. But I think this is standard. Unfair, maybe. Illegal? I dont know....

Ideally all H1B people who are interested in immigrating will apply for GC around the 2nd or 3rd year of H1B.
If you are in EB2/EB3 you will and apply for Labor and/or I140 during the 3rd year, by the time you reach the 6th year you will be surely be able to apply for extension as by then you will be eligible even if your I140 is not approved as it will cross 365 days in pending state by then. If its approved then all the more you are safe.
The problem comes only for those who delay their GC process till the end of the H1B visas 5th or 6th year and those who are stuck in BEC.
Otherwise having this rule actually wont affect many people in future. So I would not worry about this rule.
Please see my previous post. I am talking about the new system which does not have the EB1/2/3 classification. Please do not confuse it with the existing system. Also under the new system you have 6 points for employer recommendation and 10 points for experience. So 1st year employees may not get either an employer recommendation or any points for work experience.

Naresh/Libra,
What was the LUD on your I-140 before you got the RFE ?
In my case, the RD is 10/06 and LUD is 10/26/2006. But, no updates after that.

"It's like living in a holding pattern continuously," said Swati Srivastava, 28, a member of Immigration Voice, a new grass-roots organization of skilled foreign workers pushing for immigration reform. The Internet-based group formed late last year and has about 5,000 members scattered around the country.
"We work in [the] U.S. legally in high-skilled jobs, but we still get penalized for playing by the rules," Immigration Voice co-founder Aman Kapoor said in an e-mail. "Since no one was working on our issues, we decided to organize."

Few days back I was talking to two members from a district in texas where these two were the only members (state chapter members. I am sure there are a hundred others who live there, but have not joined our chapter) These two have taken the initiative to go and meet their local congressman, even though it means a two hour drive for one of them (Texas districts are big)
It is very heartening to see this happening, and if everyone just goes and meets their own representative, and makes him aware of our issues, we will be moving in the right direction.
Please join your state chapter, talk to others (WE ARE ALL SIMPLE PEOPLE, JUST LIKE YOU) who are doing it and be inspired to do the same.

Unfortunately, we won't be able to do anything in your wife's matter. The people you are referring to as the ones whose cases got accepted are the ones with bounced checks. There is a difference between the manner in which USCIS treats cases with bounced checks and cases where checks are missing, are in an incorrect amount, there is a mismatch between words and figures in the check, check is not dated, check is not signed, etc.
In the first category, there is prima fascie evidecne that the check is in the proper amount, check is dated, signed, made payable to the proper authority. In those cases, the USCIS considers bounced checks as a matter for collection. The reason that there is a difference is that in the first case, the properly signed check IS NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENT AND COMPLETELY VALID UNDER LAW.
In your case, the check was deficient because it put the party (the USCIS/Government) on notice of a defect. A party to whom a defective negotiable instrument is given with notice of the defect does not become a HOLDER IN DUE COURSE (VERY IMPORTANT UNDER THE LAW ). IN OTHER WORDS, THE CHECK LOSES ITS POWER OF NEGOTIABILITY UNDER LAW. Even if the Check is deficient that it does not affect its negotiability ( for example, check is not dated, or the check only contains the amount in words), the party to whom it is presented is under no liability to accept the check. For these reasons, THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR WIFE'S MATTER AND THE EXAMPLES YOU PROVIDE.
For this reason, I advised you to wait until the PD for your category become current again.

I hope it doesn't affect Employee (original labor) who have left GC employer using AC-21 with approved I-140 and after 180 days.
This interpretation is game changer for life of many EB immigrants. It should be implemented for going forward but at least should not affect those who used it by the interpretation of that time.
I think basically it talks about - Same Labor Being Used Twice or more :rolleyes:
Correct me if i am wrong .

Gurus,
Yesterday my lawyer received receipts for my spouse and kids (485/EAD/AP) but not for myself. Now my lawyer is insisting upon sending me the copies of the receipts and do not want to send me the originals. With respect to that I have following questions:
1) Is that o.k having copies only or we should have originals? If we do not
have originals what bad may happen?
2) Either my lawyer or I have not received any of my receipts but we
received all receipts of my family. Is this normal? How long should we wait
for my receipts before contacting USCIS? By the way USCIS already gave
me my all numbers for teh receipts and according to USCIS my receipts
already mailed on Sept 14th. What would be advisable action for me in
this case?
3) None of the receipts of my family contain Priority Date. PD field is blank on all receipts. Is this O.K.?
Thanks.

1) For our point of view, only RN number should be okay-this gives us liverage to track and see updates on your filings. Frankly, I never bothered even that as I received FP notices before RN from attorney and FP notices carry RN numbers.
2) Question is should we send the 'Stamped Original FP notice' after finger printing to attorney instead of copies? (As this is a kind of document with proof of FP having done and this is our copy). My attorney asked me for original FP notices -stamped by FBI after FP-I would rather send copies and keep original with me.
Please, let me your thoughts on this
thanks

As per my understanding, once you have a receipt notice for EAD and/or AP, it will be processed completely. Approval/rejection of EAD/AP is NOT linked with visa number availability. Many are under the misconception that they won't get their EAD and AP if the PD dates move back.
Given the current and anticipated volume, one should expect delays in processing times.
IN the same context, how about EAD.
If I file I-485 and lets say the dates retrogess and my PD is not current, then as mentioned and if an EAD is not yet issued does the EAD issuance and I-485 both are "suspended" till PD becomes current or is it just the I-485...
I guess what I want to ask is that is EAD linked to PD date ?

Still pending ..
Initially filed in Texas and transfered to Vermont .
Assigned to officer more that 60 days ago. :confused:
I've contacted the congressmen. There are 200 odd cases at NSC still lying unprocessed with earlier PD and RD (than mine) while the cutoff dates move forward for EB2-I. Are they going process all others before mine?
With this some lucky ones will get out and other unlucky ones will complain to the congressmen. Movements without clearing up the earlier cases will cause more problems.
Btw, Chris, what is your status?

Thanks for the response Tom. What if I want to use my EAD card and not do an H1 transfer. Is that going to be a problem?
There is no requirement for number of employees. You need to make sure the company is financially capable to do H1. You must make sure you get salary equal or above the salary offered in your LC. And also the job duties are same or similar.

Why Indians bash Bush ? He has always respected our community and helped us through. He has even fought with his fellow conservatives like Tancredo on this issue,Stop supporting the democrats and strart thinking like Indians. Make sure you understand that Democratic party does not give a damn on Iraq was attacked and people are getting killed. They need their own vote bank from dumb public in this country. Don;t get used in hands of democrats. They have used us from last thirty years. If someone thinks that Bush is an idiot, he is a super idiot. Bush is a straight forward guy and 90% Americans hate him because he speaks truth. Now you have to decide that Bush is good for immigrants or those scum bag democrats.
