I'm posting it where ever I can on different forums.

On the same lines, one of my relative was also denied entry into the US at the Mineapolis airport. She is a widow, 70 years of age, and used to come here to visit her only son and daughter-in-law and their son, since last 6 years. She used to stay for 6 months during the summer time (April to Oct.) and then 6 months in India. But this time when she came here they denied her entry suggesting that you have a pattern of staying here since last 6-7 years at the same time of the year, so you are doing something illegal!!!!......

Now how can one explain this???....70 years of age, a widow and her only son and daughter-in-law earning together earning atleast 6 figure income, a house of their own.....never went out of status, never extendend her stay beyond 6 months.......doing something illegal? and that too they said that they 'suspect'!....no proof whatsoever.....but according to law, she had to go back....this sucks big big time.

It is my request only!!! Can you please stop replying in 'Red' color? It is really annoying.

Having stated the above which pretains only to those cases which are still in process.

For those who have their GC in their hand, the situation could be slightly different.

If you do not join the company, it is considered as SHAM EMPLOYMENT.

I am also in the same boat and I checked with a leading lawyer, According to her advice it is better to wait for 6 months or atleast couple of months before changing the employer.

GCProbs has an advantage here, since the Company A is about to be shut down wait till then. Obtain details about it and keep it with you. Just in the event of a question, you can answer.

By the way, I have decided to join another company after 2 months.

Jumping the boat immediately might cause trouble.

So please be patient and give it as much as time as possible. I will say at least 2-3 months.

Hi guys,

I would like to know if somebody has done interfiling i.e. upgrading EB category while pending AOS. I am planning to do it as soon as I receive my RN (July filer). I was looking for some more info on this from folks who have already done it. Thx

I am also planning.

glos - that is fine :) Feel free to submit it then!

That sounds like a great idea except what would happen if you transfer the company and the current company revokes your I-140. The 3 year H1 extension is based on the approved I-140 but if that underlying I-140 is revoked, would the H1-B still valid or is that one of those gray areas?

I personally really like this idea. Thanks a lot for this suggestion. Didn't think of that before.

I am in similar situation with only three months left on my H1. My strategy is to apply for three year extension through current employer (done).
Transfer to new employer only when I have an approved three year extension and then reapply PERM, I140 in EB2.
I don't think 7 months are enough to get to I140 stage. Give room for things going south and for RFE if any.

This yr for H1B's whoever applies from more than one employer then his application will not be considered in the random pick.

You don't need any support from your ex-employer for your wife's 485. But you need your 485 receipt for this along with the affidavit and marriage certificate.

It is time to pass the DREAM Act.

'American Nava Nirman Sena' Ticket---LOL:)

July 2011
July 2012...or

By the way things are moving backwards, We will be awarded GC posthumously in a Rose Garden Ceremony by the President (who will be my son since he was born here and eligible to be come President. He will be contesting elections in 2060 under 'American Nava Nirman Sena' Ticket).

Is attorney not in the loop?
Why didnt he get any info?

Are we supposed to be monitoring all these...:mad:

just as FYI, they mailed back the original 797 with the passport.

Hi, my I-485 approval might be close according to current processing time. I have moved within the same city. I wonder whether change of address at this time will cause any delay:
1. how likely due to change of address, my I-485 processing will be affected and got delayed?
2. how likely I will get a REF due to change of address?
3. Is it better to make an effort to keep the old address?

Thanks.

One option is to change the address at USCIS and also put a hold on your mail for 30 days (max allowed) at the Post Office. Picking up held mail should be easy since you are in same city.

it sounds like PD is a MUST for approval but for actual processing order , as in backlog queue, it seems purely by luck :(

I just posted another alternative to saving on the vaccines:

http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=87048&postcount=20

Basically, if your county health dept has a program, they can give you vaccinations for dirt cheap prices. I paid only $10 per person for Td & MMR :)

Who deleted it?

I am glad that the Admins have deleted it. It really was a stupid question about a specific race...

Thank You all I appreciate.

FYI check out http://yourmaninindia.com site as well. They provide some good services like getting BC for you etc.

Thank you amslonewolf

Finally we got our 485 approved on July 15, 2010...
