which state your employer belongs to?

its in Virginia

I could not find mine (though i don't know the case number) with the priority date and employer name i could not find mine, by anyway can we find out the category (EB1,EB2 or EB3) from this databases.

I saw some poll happened in IV to get this information.

emailed my details for lobby day.

may be not related ... but can someone explain what does this line mean ...

The letter must also indicate whether the terms and conditions of your employment based visa petition (or labor certification) continue to exist.

does this mean that while invoking AC21, you have to tell your new employer to support your GC application ? hope not ! whole purpose of using EAD is to get rid of sponsorship non-sense....

anyone ?

I did AC21 from a Consulting company into a big financial company and moved using EAD. My old employer requested USCIS to revoke my 140 and as a result I got a NOID from USCIS asking details of new employment. I gave the details and my case processing resumed.

AC21 issues can be resolved. So don't worry about it.

Chanduv23, When you moved to another employer, did they give you a permanent offer letter for your GC process that you would attach with the Ac21 documents or did you use the employment letter that they gave for joining the new company?? Am I confusing you? I meant to ask, since GC is for future employment, did thay give you a separate employment letter for the future job?

Hi,

I am working in US on L1 and my company would start my green card filling in next few months.

I also have valid H1B pettion stamped and can switch to H1B which would mean that I can work freely here at US.

But many of my friends told me that green card processing is faster on L1.

I am not able to make decision whether I should continue working on L1 or change my status to H1 to get better hike and more opportunity.

Pls can anyone tell me which would be wise choice. Is green card processing for L1 visa is faster?

Thanks in advance.

H1b does not exactly make one work "freely" in the US. Certainly not, if the employer is processing your GC as you are pretty much stuck with him.

Only L-1A allows faster GC processing as it does not require Labor and PDs are usually current. L-1B has no such short-cuts and is also plagued by the problem that it is valid only for 5 years. So if you cannot get into a 485 stage within those 5 years, then you are in trouble. On the other hand, a H-1b can be extended indefinitely once you cross a certain point in your GC processing.

So evaluate your options.

"Entrepreneurs" doesn't mean to start a new company. they can just start a new business unit inside a big corporate. For example the google-maps is a new venture inside google. The guy who initiated the google-map idea is an entrepreneur.

Sometime 2 or 3 people join together and venture into one thing.

And there is a saying "95% of the businesses fail". So one cannot see all the companies started.

Thriving economy lures NRIs back to India - The Economic Times (http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/nri/returning-to-india/thriving-economy-lures-nris-back-to-india/articleshow/8112599.cms)

You guys are the experts.. I am a newbie. Good I asked, I would have never known!!

Am I missing something here. Isn't it via country of birth and not country of citizenship. There might be better ways to get around the system. EB2 Indians should marry EB3 ROW folk and apply cross-chargeability! I have yet to think of a way out for EB3 India!

two months is a reasonable estimate---but you could request premium processing and pay an extra $1000 filing fee for a decision within 15 days.

Depending upon the uscis announcement in a day or two (i.e,7/17 or 7/18)things may change for the short term so we will plan any specific action item after that.

But for now lets continue to urge everyone we know in Texas to join IV to continue pursuing our efforts as much intelligent, elite and vivid group for acheiving our goals and objectives.

Can I expect Conference call this Sunday (07/21) ? Please provide me the Phone number / Any password-Pin/ ANd time for the conference call.

Hahah ya i know, it was pretty much sarcasm.

No you will get all the benefits of I-485 filing lik EAD and AP. Only your 485 processing will suspend till your PD are current again.

I agree, but with a little change.

With PD retrogressed, I-485 can be processed, but can not be approved. For example, RFE can be issued, it can be denied for any I-485 for which PD is not current.

Please check and verify details with your attorney/lawyer. This is NOT a legal advice.

Will USCIS release updated Pending I-485 numbers as published that they will do every quarter....

My laywer has adviced me that the skin test is mandatory


The Tb (skin test) is mandatory..

To all IV members (and others), who have decided not to participate in the rally due to various reasons, I request you to give a very serious thought, and consideration, before reaching the final decision.


WD, I will either participate in the rally if my schedule allows it (I teach) or contribute towards it.

Need some views on this

opening new threads like this is annoying, I see lots of useless thread around here which discourages me to come to IV that often. He is asking update from CORE like they owe him, he must have paid his attorney and should attorney in such way not here. Whenever core has something to share they do share, no doubts.

i agree with you......dont demand..where have u been all these days coming today and asking IV for updated as they owe you...ofcourse bearing the fruits is not the only thing one can do they can contribute as well...will those new poeple who jpined in july will be willing to contribute to IV for fighting for our cuase GIBVE ME A BREAK

My wife has EAD but didnt use it yet and she is on L1 and her AP had an RFE today and she has ticket booked for INDIA on dec6th...if her AP doesnt get approved before she leaves can she travel ?

People were mentioned about it needs to approved before u come back to USA ?

Please suggest.

Hi All,

Thanks for your patience. I was busy yesterday and I would like to provide you all proper information what I sent to FOIA. Here is the information I got from my folders.
1) You need to fill the form G-639 to get the I-140 documents.
2) Provide as much Information as possible about your case. Some of you doesn't have the Receipt Number, they may also fill the form G-639 and provide any other information you have. (Ex: Provide with thorough description of your case in a separate paper.)
3) After filling the form, Notarise it (Your bank will do it)
4) Attach all the documents with this form and send it to:

USCIS National Record Center
FOIA Division
PO Box: 648010
Lee Summit, MO 64064 - 5570

5) There is no fee to submit this form. You will receive a receipt# within a week how they will process your request.

6) There is no way your Employer/Lawyer know about it. Its in between you and FOIA Division.

I feel myself proud to provide all these details to you since I know how difficult to stay with a blody sucking parasite Employer. I spent lot of sleepless nights and I decided to fight with bad/rogue Employers.

Please keep in touch if you have any other details.

I had the same thing happen to me, applied PP on June19, it reached on 20th got approved on June21. Status still shows pending, but the lawyer got the approval notice with an A# to boot...

Just to update, I got a CRIS mail that I was approved on the June21 and the online status changed to approved today....thats more than 2 weeks after the lawyer got the approval notice...snail mail seems faster then online notifications....why is everything so Topsy turvy with these guys only !!
