I am a primary applicant of GC. My question is can I take an unpaid vacation (for upto 6 months). FYI, My PD is EB3 - Aug 2003.
Does that affect my GC status in any way?
If this topic has been discussed earler, pl. point me to a correct thread.
Thanks,

Numbers USA cares about total number of immigrants per year.
If you move visa numbers from EB1, EB2 and EB3 to EB5 with fancy tactics like hard country quota(What Specter and Frist bills are doing), they dont really care.
They will be happy if the GRAND TOTAL of all greencards per year is brought down from number X to number Y. The grand total is a total of all Greencards: Family Based, Employment based, Diversity, Refugee etc.

Thanks a lot, prem_goel.
I will probably have to change emplyers based on EAD and lose my H1B status and she will lose her H4. Before that, I intend to put her into ESL(English as a Second Language) school to get her an F1 visa so she can stay inside US until I get my I485 approved
I read eveywhere and talked briefly to my lawyer about it and he had no objections and didn't raise any red flags so I assumed it would be fine to proceed with F1 plan.
Now I have to give a second thought I guess. I will go to my lawyer and try to get all the answers.
I understand the risks involved with me getting the I485 denied. I heard there are very low. Also, I read that adding F1 to I485 app is allowed and usual procedure, are you sure it might be rejected ? (my wife entered as H4 in the country, then will go on F1). I know there is always a chance to get denied.
How big would the combined risks be to get screwed here (wither 485 denied or F1 spouse not added on I485)? Like very low, low, medium or likely ? :)
Thanks a bunch

Totally off the topic and beg your pardon. But do you know when they post the new USCIS processing dates. They still have the January posting.

India is in the process of having social security agreements with France and Germany.

Don't know about anything with the US happening anytime soon. But it would definitely help those who worked here contributed to the one-way SSA pool and left before 10 years.They never got to have the social security benefits. If work visas are made available relatively easily and job openings go up in these countries, people would prefer going to these countries rather than to the US.

Hello everyone,
Today 17th August, 2007 my I-485 packet was about to reach at Texas Service Center and unfortunately when I track my packet it shows �Notice Left� on USPS site, they mention they will try to deliver on Next business day. When I called at USPS , one lady picked up phone and she told it was PO Box no so we cant deliver. It is available to them to pick up but the man from USCIS might pick it up on early monday morning. Now I am worried does that mean my mailing date is Aug 17th or Aug 20th.
SO now USCIS will accept my application or not ?? Please advise ? Any body has same situation ?

from the immigration rules I got to know that if I-94 is near expiring, then an official from CBP (international airports only) can change it and provide a new one. HOwever, it it is expired, you have to cross border and re-enter to get a new valid I-94.
I will write more as I get to know.

I am from florida too. It has been like this since Jan 2002. It's normal and not unexpected at all. You will get your license in the mail in about 3 to 4 weeks. And to add to that now they stamp "Temporary" in big red letters on the license.
Before Jan 02 we got it over the counter. I've had to change the license several times due to either H1B expiring or address changes. Remember to carry your passport (or some other photo ID) with you all the time.
Well actually my last address change was about two months back, and I got the permanent license immediately ("over the counter"). I thought they had done away with the practice of temporary license for H1B's, but apparently not.

Lisap - The GC approval will depend on your Priority Date. The more recent your PD, the longer it can take for GC. In any case, I think it's a safe option to get your H-1 extended unless you want to take the risk to wait for your EAD.

Ooooh my bad. Sorry about that. It's kind of like joking about bombs in an airport lol. Its kind of an edgy subject. Anyways, congrats!
It's all good.
That's the problem with sarcasm on the Internet. You can never be sure that it reads the way it was intended. No matter how many emoticons you throw in :)
Congrats to you too. You had a hell of a lot of good entries. I really, really liked your lava flow.
