    Thanks MC thats a valid Point.

    There are 2 reasons that I thought of for not applying / renewing.

    1) I'm not planning on going anywhere after / atleast for a year.

    2) My wife's AP filed last year took Six months to get approved and what happens if you fly out while your AP is pending / sent for renewal. I read in this forum, not fly out, while you AP is pending.

    Appreciate your time.

    Regards
    Karthik

    2 is more legitimate reason and people answered that it is not an issue.
    For the first one if you are thinking about saving 360$, think if some strikes/riots in India/country you are traveling thru or a weather event similar to the one that stopped flights al over Europe were to happen.
    In my opinion , not renewing will be a huge risk. The reward of saving 360$ is not worth it.

    ok..from what I have been hearing from my multiple friends and company's attorneys, USCIS has been digging deep into most of the 485s..

    Our company guy said, there is some new policy in 485 processing which is causing them to gather lot of other information (I havent seen this policy published anywhere..so thought this guy is bluffing)..but I dont know many ppl have been saying about such RFEs or RFEs which were not raised before are more common now.

    Look at my other thread as an example.

    Hopefully you resolve it fast

    My lawyer says that her status is AOS from nowonwards. Even I can change job, that dosen't cause any issues for her 485, she says. What do you guys think? I want to change job. Also, I have read from some other forum, it would be good to work for the sponsoring company for 6 to 1 year after get the gc.

    got it, sonu. Thanks; clear as water now!

    skp71, please treat the posting by Sonu as the final word on your case!; However, as he indicated consult your attorney becuase there may be additional details of your case which may not know while providing you feedback.

    How about we send congratulation letter to President-Elect Obama. This should go as a combined effort from the whole IV community. Any thoughts???

    Dear President-Elect Obama,

    Legal Immigrant Community in USA would like to congratulate you on your impressive campaign and win. We wish you all the best for your presidency tenure and promise to provide you our support and in many manner we can.
    We would also like to take this opportunity to bring your attention to some common problems which legal immigrants are currently facing.

    1. Quota system for countries resulting in wait period for Greencard ranging from 5-15 years for both Employment based and Family based categories.
    2. Extreme dependency on employer because of unclear 'Same or similar job change regulations'. We cannot accept promotions, salary increases or any job title or location changes in order to not lose the status on current pending Greendcard application.
    3. In this current economy, many legal immigrants are losing their jobs resulting in changing employers for which they have to go to the end of the line again and start the GC process all over again if the job title or salary is much differnet from the original one.


    We understand that USA is currently facing more pressing issues at this time which need your imminent attention but few simple reliefs from your administration will make the lives of immigrants much better here. As a result, they will contribute more towards the economy, buy houses, invest and establish new businesses.

    Suggestions for relief to immigrant community:
    1. Approve pending bill HR5882 which captures wasted Green card numbers from the past due to bureacracy delays.
    2. Remove Same or Similar job requirements for Green card applicants waiting for more than 1 year in their I-485( Last stage of GreenCard). They should be allowed to join any employer with any title or salary changes.
    3. Allow pending I-485 applicants to join schools full time without affecting their Greencard applications.
    4. Allow pending I-485 applicants waiting for more than 2 years on their last stage of greencard to establish businesses.
    5. Allow temp visas for family members who are stuck in lines for Family based immigration.

    Few simple changes as stated above will bring imminent relief to legal immigrant community. Many of us want to buy homes, start businesses, go to school full time but cannot do so till we become permanent residents. Wait periods are so long that we are stuck with the same employers with stalled career growth.

    We expect that you will consider the above ideas and bring the change that all the people are hoping from years who are stuck in legal limbo.

    Thank you
    Your supporters
    Legal Immigrant Community

    EB3 with PD of July 2006. I-140 Approved. 485 +EAD+AP filed 2 weeks ago.

    I was contemplating on job change before dates became current in June and decision to accept 485....

    Now that 485 is filed and this DUST has settled, wondering whether all this is worth the wait. (even 180 days).

    Currently in my 5th year of H1b, by waiting out the 6 months, I'll also get 3 yr h1b ext. (and hopefully ead by then).

    So is waiting 180 days the best choice? or screw all this and change! (I dunno if this AC21 etc etc is practical...same job description etc)

    (I am single and those complexities are not to be considered I guess yet.
    Plan is to try and change jobs on H1b and use EAD only if there is a dire need like layoff to find another job quicker)

    Immigrantion Restrictionist/Racists have been calling Congresional offices and pounding the privelege of their One vote each, so they can be spared of foreign competition even though US competitiveness goes down the drain. I guess each one to himself. Here are some of the more interesting conversations...

    ==


    Senator Kyl:
    Q. What is Senator Kyl's position to be on Cornyn's "dark of the night"
    attempt to ramrod an H-1B increase?
    A. Are you calling on behalf of any organization?
    A. Yes, the org's name is Sandra. I only have one vote and no campaign
    donations.
    "Very low likelihood of this passing, and in the future Senator Kyl will
    take into careful consideration such meansures."
    A. You haven't answered my question. Kyl has been a consistent supporter
    of H-1Bs
    A. Senator hasn't made a decision and is still considering.
    Q. How did the Senator vote on the H1-C two days ago?
    A. I'm not finding a record.
    Q. It was HR1285--on December 5.
    A. Oh, that was a unanimous voice vote.
    Q. So does that mean Senator Kyl voted for it?
    A. I can check, just a moment........it was a unanimous voice vote
    ================================================== ========
    Senator McCain:
    Q What is McCain's position on Cornyn's "dark of the night" attempt to
    ramrod an H-1B increase?
    A. He hasn't yet taken a position.
    ================================================== ========
    Senator Grassley (Casey Mills)
    Asked for Casey but aide couldn't find him
    Q. Does Grassley support H1-B increases?
    A He doesn't know.
    I gave him a rundown as if I were Debbie--nursing shortage is artificially
    created. Grassley probably voted for H1-C, etc.
    I retrained for a job after 20 years to go into nursing, and now find wages
    are kept low by foreign nurses.
    A. He'll pass concerns along.
    ================================================== ==============
    Senator Dorgan
    Express thanks to Senator Dorgan for opposing H1-Bs.
    ================================================== =================

    I called Cornyn's office just now - male staffer got really annoyed when I
    asked him if Senator Coryn supports displacing well-educated American
    workers with Foreign H-1B Visa holders. He immediately passed me off to a
    voice mail box of a staffer who handles immigration matters. (Yes, I know
    H-1B's are so-called "non-immigrant Visas" but we all know most of these
    people end up staying here -)

    Of course the staffer did not pick up his phone - but the staffer's name is
    Landon Bell. Why not ring up Senator Corn-Hole's office and ask for Landon
    Bell, and ring Landon's bell a bit?

    Gerard

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +

    I called Cornyn's office just now - stated my opposition of course. The
    person I spoke with said that Cornyn was trying to get his bill introduced
    today, and he was not sure if it would be voted on today.

    Hopefully Cornyn fails. I think he is getting our message, but I also
    think he does not care.

    Maybe you all have different information that I just obtained from both
    Senator Pete Domenici's office (Republican) and Senator Jeff Bingaman's
    office (Democrat) -- both of New Mexico. But both of their offices claim
    that Skil Bill "Access to High Skilled Foreign Workers" S 2691 has NOT left
    committee yet and thus cannot be voted on yet. (It is certainly possible
    that you all have different or better information than was conveyed to me
    but this is what I obtained.)

    Domenici's office staff person couldn't tell me which side of the fence he
    was on as he hasn't "made a press release" yet. And, as long as it is in
    committee he apparently doesn't voice an opinion.

    Senator Bingaman's office staff also told me that he had not expressed an
    opinion to him on his position on the bill. The young, female staff woman
    who answered the DC phone seemed STUNNED when she pulled up the bill and
    started to read parts of it. She thought they'd have to take some kind of
    special test to get into the USA for these jobs -- no. I only wish she
    were casting a vote as I know how she'd vote! Again, she told me that
    the bill was not out of committee YET and the Senators are going home
    tomorrow afternoon. They are doing "yesterday morning's" work tonight or
    some such backward thinking. There has been no floor debate on the bill so
    the staff claimed would mean there will NOT be a vote on the bill tonight.
    No one would guarantee me that NO voting would take place tomorrow but did
    say it was UNlikely.

    Finally, when I got to the staff woman in DC she was a bit surprised
    because someone had called her on the bill from one of the Senator's New
    Mexico offices. (A bit strange unless it was my calling the Senator's 800
    number which connected me some place in New Mexico and they called the DC
    office for information regarding my inquiry.)

    (BE careful when you call, however, one Bingaman's staff males that I
    spoke with tried to give me the WRONG Senate Bill number reference. He
    asked "This is Senate Bill 2626?" I said "The one I am calling on is
    "Senate Bill 2691 "Access to High Skilled Foreign Workers" so unless the
    bill has been reassigned a number that I don't know about -- I am calling
    on the Skil Bill "Access to High Skilled Foreign Workers.")

    Oh, yeah! the woman from Bingaman's office said "Oh, THAT's a
    Republican sponsored bill!"

    Cynthia

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +

    I, too, phoned Cornyn's office and the person I spoke with kept insisting
    that the H-1B's had to be paid the same as Americans and then he said the
    senator wants to make America more competitive by bringing in skilled
    workers. I directed him to Norm's article in the San Francisco paper and to
    the Programmers Guild. I asked him how it would make our nation more
    competetive to bring in a worldwide supply of cheaper labor to take our
    jobs. Silence.

    My wife is in a similar situation. I-94 validity matches passport expiry (Dec 2008) , but H1 visa stamp is until Mar 2010. She has a new passport, but we are not sure if she will be out of status if she does not get a new I-94 and stays in the country beyond Dec 2008.

    Get your I-94 corrected - BTW, staying beyond I-94 date is unlawful and you will be barred from entering US.

    I am in ROW, EB2 if they processed the interfiling, EB3 if not, with a PD of Dec 2002, and receipt date of 5 May 2007.

    My application was filed with Nebraska Service center, they moved to Texas (with SRC* receipt number), they moved back to Nebraska in October 2007.

    Even on EB3 my PD is now current.
    When they passed 60 days late according to processing times I raised a service request. They claim that they have 45 days to respond. Their 45 days will be up on Thursday, and I still have no response.

    So here is my plan...
    On Thursday call again. Raise another service request?
    Make an Info pass appointment ? - not sure IO could tell me more in person than over phone.
    On Thursday go see Congressman's office.
    Come May 2008 (one year since filing I485) if there is still no suitable reply to service request file WOM. Their lack of response to service request should annoy the judge hopefully.

    When I last spoke with an IO she thought that the notice date on the transfer notice was the processing date to use (Oct 2007) not the receipt date on it (May 2007). I believe she is plain wrong, and she was silent when I asserted that I believed she was wrong, and that's why the original receipt date is kept on the transfer notice. If someone has a link to the USCIS rule on this it would be helpful.

    Any comments please?

    Just wondering how many souls are out there in the country with EB-2 India PD of 2004 and earlier but are not here on IV.

    Even with a 1% representation ( assuming that 2004 folks such as us are NOT tired to participate in poll), the total number should be some thing like 8000-9000. 1.5 dependents makes it 20K-25Knumbers.

    Also I noticed that a lot of people who voted here has their profile listed as EB-3. Did those guys took the wrong poll or did interfiling?

    I feel that OCT EB-2 I & C reversal of DOS was a knee jerk reaction to USCIS's random approvals and we should see a good jump's in next few months.

    I have 2 files ( Eb3 -I-old + EB2-I-New) and waiting for interfiling. Many people could be like myself here.

Then she asked for my full name , dob and ssn and gave me the receipts info. I/O was very patient and verified my address to make sure everything was right.

    With new threads being created every minute, it's hard to keep track of relevant threads in "Recent Forum Posts" section of the homepage. I am not saying that some threads are irrelevant but there are bunch of threads talking about the same issue or news. Lot of members create new threads without realizing that the topic has been discussed already in some other thread. Some threads are personal in nature (nothing wrong with that) but not all members will benefit from that and so on....

    In light of that, I was wondering if there is a way for core team to identify the top 5 or so useful threads and always keep it on the top of the "Recent Forum Posts". All other threads can be displayed further down. This will just allow those top 5 threads (like for media drive, IV action items, breaking news, etc) to be visible on the homepage all the time and members will have easy access to those threads.

    I am not a webpage designer to I don't know how difficult that would be to implement but just a suggestion.

    I am in the same boat. Is there anyway of figuring out whether USCIS Vermont recevied and Fwd to TSC / NSC?


    What is your back up plan

    VSC received the application based on the tracking info from UPS.
    Whether they forwarded it to NSC or TSC- I don't know yet.
    based on the question 6 in link below from USCIS, i think they will
    http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/EBFAQ1.pdf

    BUT when I don't know! what will be the receipt date? Not sure!

    No back up plan! I think we should be ok but don't know for sure. Filed on my own so no attorney to go to.

    Thank you all for your useful suggestions.
    Mine is a similar case but the only unfortunate thing was that my H1-B is approved and effective from October 1st. My position was terminated in July and now I want to continue my OPT (expires in Jan 2010 if nothing is done). Now another company is ready to give me offer and file H1B.

    1. Is it possible to update the SEVIS record by DSO b4 October 1st so that I can that I can buy some time in the transition. Note: I did not violate my 90 day unemployment period during OPT.

    2. If it is not possible to go back to my OPT, how much time I have after October 1st before I apply for the another H1 from the new company? and when I can start working in this case?

    Thank you.

    I came to Montreal to have my H1 stamping done and am stuck here since 3/18. They told me they want to search the company and will call me back with in 10 days but no response yet.

    Pls. ensure you have all valid documents before you get here but you can not go back with expired visa.

    Do you have AP? If yes bring with you. I did't have mine so I am stuck.

    I had got my H1 in Toronto also in 2005 without any problem this time I am stuck.

    Are you a landed immigrant of Canada? I am but till having this problem.

    Can I come back to US without H1 being stamped on my passport? What other options do I have.
    Any suggestions.

    I spoke with my attorney today and she is going to investigate further on this case to find out what happened. She also mentioned that she has been an immigration attorney for over 30 years and half the time she has been working on USCIS generated blunders!!

    I just got the H1 Approval for 1 year and 2 months (1 year H1 Extension and 2 months recapture time). I am currently in Malaysia and need to apply for a visa at US Consulate in Malaysia. Since I am on the H1 visa, I have to show the proof that I will return back to Malaysia after the end of my work period in US. Accordingly, I would need to purchase the round trip ticket. The issue is that the plane ticket only valid for the maximum of 1 year, but my visa valid for 1 year and 2 months. Please advise if one way plane ticket would be sufficient for the visa interview or need to be a round trip plane ticket. If it is not, what should I do? Also, I wonder if the application package including I-129 submitted to USCIS need to be stamped �Certified True Copy� with the original signature of the lawyer or employer for the visa interview. Can I use the copy one that is stamped �Certified True Copy� with the non-original signatures of my lawyer or employer? Anybody pls help. Thank you very much.

    Sadly Immigration voice is giving importance to the � number of posts� rather than �number of valuable posts� .
    Some people are more interested to upgrade in their title by putting more number of comments, which will have no information.
    I request every one to understand that these are just somebody thoughts/comments some time they may be correct and some times
    they are just garbage.

    Janakp Can you tell us how many valuable posts you posted in here.

    IV doest evaluate posts of members or give more or less importance to quantity or quality of posts.

    The software we use for forums (Joomla) is preconfigured to make a person "Senior member" when he/she posts 100 messages.

    IV core group or leadership doesnt have any interest in rating the quantity or quality of any posts from any members.
