I have a curious situation. I have filed EB3-485 as a secondary applicant to my wife. I am currently in a job where I can't file a green card ( this is my 5th year of H1b). My understanding is one can't have a seventh year extension for H1b unless his I-140 is approved.
Should I consider changing the job and filing another GC by myself. I know I can continue renewing EAD but I still want to keep my H1b
Thanks
Just apply for labor and once the labor is approved apply for I140 (Apply in premium if USCIS starts accepting premium by the time your labor is approved). If premium is not started by the time your labor is approved then apply I140 in regular and wait for premium to start. you can change your I140 Application to premium even though you filed it in regular processing originally.
Who knows you might get the I140 approval in regular processing also before your 6 years is complete.
just do what you can

I plan to use AC21 and apply G28. Any reasonable lawyer recommendation in and around bay area would be of immense help to me.
I tried Payal Singh and she is charging $1200 for AC21 and G28.
I checked with Arjun Verma and the cost is $400 for the same.
Still checking around...

If calling the national customer service center is of no help then I am not sure what else you can do, other than being there on Friday.
When I googled for the location, I found two different webpages. Surprisingly, 'Application Support Center (ASC)' seems to be open on Fridays (first link) but the 'local office' is closed. ASC is in room 154 in the same building it seems. Go figure !

I think you should be okay. I have like 5 H1Bs ( with all the extensions). My first name has 2 words and my last name is two words. On each h1b its different. I never had any problems in stamping so far. One I stamped from India, once mexico, couple times from DC ( this service is closed now).
Good luck.
Good luck.

Hi, I have strange situation, when I check status of my I-485, this is what I see:
http://i.imgur.com/8beDR.png
According to their site I've already should have received either approval or denial of Applicatio to Adjust Status (I-485).
So my attorney called customer support # and claims that service representative told her that it refers to something mailed other than approval or denial having being mailed.
Well, since my attorney couldn't figure it out, I decided to call myself today. In my case, customer service rep told me that she isn't allowed to tell me whether it was approval or denial, but she said that it must be either one of the two. She offered to send me a copy of what was sent on Sep 2007 as per this screenshot above. So now I have to wait up to 45 days to see what it is.
I am wondering if anyone else has seen similar thing happen.
By the way, my priority dates aren't current. I am still in backlog, hence I am not so optimistic this could be approval or denial. I am actually more afraid whether or not my paperwork got stalled or something and it'll now never get resolved because of according to their system the matter has been resolved.
Anyway, if anyone has any advice or ideas that'd be appreciated,
Thanks,
Vlad

Opening this thread to see if USCIS is approving any EB2/EB3 applications after moving the dates in the July bulletin.
Please update this thread of your application has been approved or you know of someone who got approval.

Along with all the others who couldn't be bothered to come to the rally, you will shower those that made the effort with extraordinary amounts of praise and adoration for making a personal sacrifice to change other people's lives :D

Similar situation, but my PD is May 2007 and my wife would be here on H4 by September or October at the most. So, I can add my wife's amendment only when my date comes back again CURRENT which should take a few years as per the present Chaos. But as soon as my date comes up, I should be ready to file her AOS.
Any suggestions here if I'm wrong ???
Thanks

As per my attorney, NO it won't affect the GC process. However the Job description should remain same as in your Labor Certificate.
Better confirm with your attorney.
Hi !
My husband just had his performance appraisal today. He is presently working as a Senior Consultant.What we are wondering is that if there is any change in the designation, will it affect the GC process in any way ?
We got our I-140 last month and EAD two weeks back.
Kindly advice us on this.
Thanks

Hello,
My spouse will be in India next week and would be going for her H1B stamping at the Mumbai consulate. She came here on H4 and we applied for her H1B, effective 10/2007, and she has been working since Jan08 and have all her paystubs from that date. Can you share your experience in terms of questions they ask and supporting documents they request in addition to the documents that we are required to carry.
Your reply would be appreciated
Mainly they ask for W2 , tax returns for all years, she was on h1. And you can also send your tax returns for all the other years she was on h4.

LC Sub/EB2 with PD June 2001 filed on July 27 with RD of Sept 8 got approved y'day. 140 filed on July 5th was approved on jan. no RFE, all were smooth.
I was afraid because of my last years on L1B and filed H1b though this year quota and not sure if i'm lucky to have a number lottery. This gave me major relaxation.
Best of luck you all.
Had 1 Soft LUD on Jan 31 on 485 application.
USCIS is doing a great job thank to IV to make these possible.

Does emotional trauma and endless domestic disturbance of peace caused by years of waiting for the Priority dates to be current count?
Also who has to be the perpetrator of the severe violence? If an H1B beats up another H1B does that count? Or it only counts if a Citizen or GC holder beats u up? Now this is an important piece of information so that I know whom to ask to beat me up!!;)

The regulation bans improper commerce and payment for labor certifications. It bans the sale, barter, or purchase of labor certifications. Employers cannot seek or receive payment of any kind for activity related to the labor certification. This includes payment of the employer's attorney fees and costs. Individuals can pay for their own legal fees for separate representation, but the labor certification is regarded as the employer's cost. If there is dual representation, the employer must pay the attorney fees and related costs. This applies only to the labor certification stage.
Even if the law prohibits it, still companies pass fees and costs to the employee...

Dont flll 1040 by yourself if you are not a tax expert.
Line 34 in 1040 is tuition and fee deduction and you have to file form 8917.
get Some software such as Turbotax or Taxcut
Are you serious? I must be a super expert on taxes because I have always done it on paper using a calculator for the last 14 years and counting. Just spend an hour reading the instructions and you're done. Have a question, call the IRS. Unlike other government agencies (cough.. USCIS cough..) the agents at the other end of the line are actually helpful and responsive.

Each month visa bulletin is preceded with a demand data. So bulletin should come today or tomorrow.
Check out data for China. It shows significant reduction from last month. Expectations are low for India but China will advance a lot in July.
If spillover kicks in (& it should in July) then both China and India will have to move together (exact same cutoff date, because the law says spillover visa's are to be used evenly by those in the same category. USCIS has been doing horizontal spillover, so all EB2's will be equally eligible and have the same cutoff.

A key figure (http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&q=hastert&btnG=Search+News) in the latest political drama was a key figure in immigration debate (http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=hastert+immigration&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&btnG=Search+Archives). I wish he makes way and hopefully some moderate does something for the immigrant community.
