It is very surprising to see many 2004 numbers still pending. I know 2006 cases were processed in high numbers, but didn't expect these many 2004 pending cases.

I need expert advice -
My I-140 has been approved and I-485 pending for more than 18 months. I have a valid EAD & AP. I also have a valid H1-B visa valid till 2011,
that I am using for my current employment with my current employer
1. If I get laid-off, how long can I stay in US without another job?
Active EAD should keep your status ok
2. I understand that in order to maintain my eligibility to "port" to a new employer / sponsor under AC21, I should have another job in same or similar occupation. Till I find another job, am I allowed to do some part-time job in different occupation?
3. If new employer gives me the option to move permanently to its subsidiary in another country, what are the available option for me to continue with green card processing?
4. If after going out of the country , I want to come back in future before Green card approval, what will be the available options? AP can be used to travel and return

Last week we all got the LUD of 08/05/2007 also a Sunday. My lawyer said maybe it was a mass update, but now I am beginning to wonder if that is the case.
Now this is a THEORY but what if every Sunday they are updating the packages being sent from NSC to TSC. The very fact that there is an LUD update means 1 important thing
You are not a concurrent filer.
Maybe it is my wishful thinking, but i feel that seeing mass LUD updates on 2 consecutive Sundays is too much to be a mere coincidence.

DREAM Act should actually be called DREAM ON Act... .
anybody heard Aerosmith 'Dream on'? seems appropriate
"
Half my life
is in books' written pages
Lived and learned from fools and
from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you
....
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away
....

My experience with the evaluators was the same. Well, not mine but my wife's. She had to use the people the school told her to.
If you need to find translators for your documents though, I can help. If you need recommendations just ask!

Not flowers ... any other time, an emphatic YES.
But we just used flowers as a sarcastic "Thank You, USCIS" .... so it is not the best idea ... just a note of Thanks, email or letter - to let her know we are grateful for her stance. It is important that we acknowledge the efforts of people who work to help us.
Everyone is going to think twice now when they get a bouquet of flowers.. lol

This message is for people who posting against the reform bill, its just surprising how you all come to this country for better life .. and now complaining!! Just because you had better education and had a chance to go to college doesn't give you the right to look at others as less than you.
Yes, they come to U.S and might overstayed... guess what you might done the same thing if you wanted better life for your family.
The illegals came to U.S for the same reason you are here for ... Better life for their families and children. Just because now they have a chance to change their situation little bit faster than you do ... doesn't mean we should hate them and start claiming that they will bring U.S backward...... Just because of these people you have food on your table...
Its not their fault that most of Indian cases are in back log, you have a choice either be patient or go back....!
We need to care and wish good for others as we wish it for our-self and our family members. Be side the bill is not giving them green card or citizenship right a way they have to wait 6 or more years before they get to this point..... all what they are getting is legalization of thier present in U.S nothing more...
But you have another choice cross the border and come back as illegal you might get yor paper work done faster !! :eek::p

My wife's finger printing fee was rejected last month, even though we submitted the right fee.
We still submitted the fee again. In the mean while, we got our finger printing notices.
Do u know when we would get our EADs ? Is anyone in a similar situation ?
Thanks
First of all what is Finger printing fee? FP is part of your 485 process so i is not charged seperately... secondly yes EAD can come before FP... and they are not related EAD is Form I765 and FP is related to I485. Check with your lawyer if you had applied for EAD or not...if not then apply if yes then wait you will get it too...
Yes one can walk in usually on wednesday but depending on the rush they might or might not accomodate depends how you persue... and how valid your reason is... one can also go to another ASC then mentioned on the form they all do the same thing and assignment is purely based on load at a particular ASC.:cool:

INS doesn't process Labor Certification. So it was either DOL who denied Labors or INS/USCIS who denied 140's. The latter is doubtful, because 140 is filed only with an approved Labor (except for EB1s and NIW), but everything is possible with USCIS. There is a will there is a way, there is no will there are excuses (not enough visas, too many of you, too few processing capacity, we gotta protect American workers from you, damn job stealers, etc.)
yes, everything is possible with USCIS but not at I-485 stage!! You can't say at I-485 why can't you hire americans?? They have to give different reason for denial.

There is No formula. It is Lucky or Unlucky.
It is based on Karma. I know people who got GC in 20 days and still waiting for it for 10 years. I am waiting on it for 5 years now. Do not try to come up with formulas. I and my friend with the same pd filed on the same day. His went to TSC and mine to NSC. He already got his GC 2 weeks ago.

Some proposals are realistic and can be implemented. An increase in EB-visa numbers may not be that realistic at the moment, but most of the others like recapturing visa numbers lost every year (upwards of 200K), considering the primary beneficiary towards the quota, etc., as well as some interim benefits.... are all part of the proposals afaik.
Bottomline, if you understand all the issues and the efforts being made, please participate and make this a successful effort.
As they say, even God doesn't help those who don't help themselves... :)

I believe in IV and its efforts.
I understand rally will help IV to demonstrate the people support.
I understand, in rally and after rally IV requests/lobbys law-makers to fix the broken immigration system system.
But can someone clarify me, what exactly IV is requesting law-makers?
1) Are we asking to re-capture visa numbers? (150K may not be sufficient for 750K applicants)
2) Remove country limit (still have to 5 years)
3) Increase the EB quota?
4) Clear all current pending Backlog labor/I-140/I-485/etc applications by 2009? This is temporary solution, but will solve the problem for now.
5) Another Immigration Reform bill for legal?
Having clear answers will help to gain support from my friends, colleagues and more and more people will be willing to join.

Immigrant petition was filed only for me. However, AoS has been filed for the entire family. So in my opinion the answers to three questions sholuld be 1 - No, 2- No, 3- Yes.- Would that be Correct?
Since the primary applicant of form I-539 is my wife, i wasn't sure if there should be a mention of my immigrant petition when describing the circumstances on a separate sheet of paper. Should I add receipt number of form I-485 or attach a copy of the form as support documents?
Thanks!
Once you file I-485 it is as good as filing an Immigrant petition. So your Answer will be 'Yes' for Everyone who has applied for I-485.

hello dears.
a lot of desi consultants are made to pay for h1 and gc costs. especially in NJ by the "Jersey boys".
i am also in the situation where if i quit i'll have to pay the company all the costs of the GC. some of you have also paid the company for h1 costs.
i asked an immigration lawyer about this.
this practice is illegal and basically to intimidate you.
the company got you here justifying your presence as being good for business (the said they could not find your skillset here). and they are taking tax deductions on this spending.
since they got you here for their good (we know that!), they have to bear all these costs. if they ask you to bear it, it is illegal and they are commiting immigration and labour fraud.
http://www.hammondlawfirm.com/FeesArticle07.18.2006.pdf
"Deduction of attorney�s fees associated with the filing of the LCA or H-1B and the Base Fee (or I-129 Fee) are considered to be unauthorized. These fees are considered to be the employer�s business expenses and, for this reason, are not authorized deductions."

The band is Bar�o Vermelho (http://www.barao.com.br/) (http://www.barao.com.br%29), they are very famous here and the songs are great.
I used a friend�s nikon 50mm 1.8D in all photos, because i just have one len (18-70mm).
