I wrote an E-mail to ACLU about the plight of Green Card applicants like a month back. I haven't received any replies (yet).

ACLU is a leftist organization. It cares only for the proletariat, and not for the 'elite' earning decent wages. We are all 'fatcat capitalists' who can defend themselves, as per ACLU/leftist thinking.

As a card carrying member of ACLU, all I can say is that I am proud to have the lady at ACLU :)

Thanks UKannan,

That is the first thing I did and the cust rep said it is 1 bag, moreover, she said talk to your travel agent.

Also, it is different to hear from cust rep and then get the actual experience in front of the check-in staff. Hence I was asking recent experiences here.

Please don't get me wrong, but traveling with 2 toddlers, the last thing I want is baggage hassle.

Two bags, each can be max. 20 kg.

I am July 2007 filer, submitted I485, EAD/AP for me and my wife but as of now no LUDs on both I485s. Submitted at NSC but transferred to TSC this is happend at that time only now the case is pending at TSC.

Many of my friends and their familes updated LUDs on 485 and even I read many threads in this forum regarding soft LUDs once or twice but mine is nothing... don't know:confused:

They said the case is pending it may take time and also said mail the letter to TSC and ask them what is the status? but she didn't say name check pending etc.., I don't where is stuck my application these I had wait once the processing time comes then they will update but nothing done....

Hi,

I have attended for H1b renual in toronto on the 2nd of May. The VO decided to do some additional review on the application. He took the Cleint letter, vendor letter and I129. Still havent heard anything from the consulate.

I am not sure if I should stay in Toronto or travel to India. I have taken only single entry visa to canada.

So, do you know if there is a canadian consulate in Hyderabad. If there is one, how much time do they take to issue a visitor visa.

Also, most importantly, how much time does it take for the 221g processing.

I would really appreciate if someone could share their knowledge.

Thanks

I hope you don't mind but with about 20 minutes in photoshop...

:D

I needed that laugh after the day I've had. Thanks.

Hi Gurus / Attorneys,

I have come to this country in 1999 and have worked for company A and after 7 years , I transferred my H1B to company B based company A's approved I-140 in 2007 before July fiasco. Hence missed the July 2007.

Now I have been working for company B for the last 3 years and got my I-140 approved again and applied for H1B extension. Received RFE asking for client letter.
Client was reluctant to give the letter and my H1B got denied.

Asking client for the letter : Client says that they can't give a letter, it's against their company policy :confused:

My Options :

1. MTR : I am not sure if I can get the client letter to open MTR and also file a new H1 in parallel.

2. Go back to my home country : My employer said that they will apply for a new H1B for consular processing (does this come under quota ?)

I own a home here and now leaving everything in a week is making me worried.

Also my priority date is Nov 2002 under EB3 and I am not sure how I can pursue this from my home country, if needed.

Thanks in advance for all your help and suggestions !!

My husband, the primary applicant is a temporary non immigrant worker on H1B visa. I have been on an H4 status for the last 6 years since we relocated to the U.S. Our I-485 is on track and continued (visa availability). I've had an EAD for the past 3 years (renewed twice and now valid until 2012) but never used it, until recently...

I used my EAD very briefly and unfortunately had to leave my job due to personal reasons within 3 weeks of joining. Have I lost my H4 Status? What status am I on now? I want to travel to India in Feb-March. What procedure do I need to follow to make it happen. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

No need to register on that site.
Just click and listen.

If it asks you to register, close and reopen the brower.

He says that is what he always used and he never had a problem.

Simply and bluntly put

IV is we. If you are not there , there is no IV. We are in agony and pain. let us scream so high that even deaf may lend their ears.

What is at stake is you career. We have every thing to loose by doing nothing. I know, I have lost a whole lot. Probably I were better off moving to India after my MBA. I might have been doing much better there. But I am at the point where I cannot let got without trying. Have you reached that point yet?

Here is my personal story, if you think you can do better here without the Green Card. Think again! I have been slogging in this mess since 1999, even though I have world class qualifications (Full time MBA from a top US school, several years of work experience, PMP and marching toward CFA). All this are futile , if I don't have that stupid work permit with out any strings attached (Green Card)

Yes I do have EAD. But it is full of restriction. At least let us work together to remove that restriction..

I don't want any freaking loosers. Loosing is their nature. I want winners to work with me. Are you the one?


unless we join hands together and come forward nothing will change ...

because of personal reason I was not able to devote much time to IV recently ... will be involved more now onwards ...

Try calling the DOS and explaining then what's going on and see who you can call to check the status next.

The lawyers email is text book response and may not help you much.

If the consulate didn't give you any slip during your interview then most likely it is PIMS related. Call up DOS!

I used jet last week... 1208$ great food and service.. and the inflight entertainment was awesome !:D

I apologize in advance if people think my post is inappropriate for this thread, but I couldn�t find the older thread I was looking for.

I was wondering what happened with the discussion about the potential impacts of Canadian Immigration on US GC process. I had read before that UCSIC might consider it as an abandonment of the 485 application.

I had applied for canadian immig as a back up and got a medical request form from Canadian Consul. I am planning to go ahead with it. Was hoping to find out if people have been landing in Canada in this post 485 filing world??

Responses will be appreciated.

My Wife is attending her graduate school here. There is no need to show other than H4 visa and in most states you can have resident fees paid for your spouse study. More you can get information from the school you are intersted for H4 visa holder. Hope this help you.

Thanks

Hi everyone,
I am trying to reschedule my H1B appointment as my contact in mumbai failed to deliver the DS-156 and DS-157 to the consulate in time (5 business days prior). However, I can't book a new one till the old one is cancelled and the system won't let me cancel 5 business days or less before the current appointment. Does anyone know what to do? It must have happened to someone before? I really need to get back to the US in 10 days.
Thanks!!

Hi,
My CP interview has been sceduled at New Delhi consulate on Aug 26. I do not have any PCC (Police Clearance Certificate). can I get it in India from local Police station. I know it would be possible in India after giving Rs 100- 200. Anybody please give me the format of this certificate which I should ask them to prepare

Please let me know if PCC is must from US consulate only

Hopefully you have not sent email to US Consulate, Delhi asking what they suggest on this.

Looks like you have not been to India for a long time.

Even local police personnel are well educated on why you are looking for police certificate and its value. Also if it is related to US Immigration, most of them have instructions on what to do.

So please be prepared to face it. If you end up doing what you have asked for, it will not be that much cheap.

A coffee in a Level 3 city costs Rs.25, A lunch costs Rs.60- Rs.100. Do you think a PCC can be obtained for Rs.100 - Rs.200 targeted towards US Immigration?

You will be surprised to see yourself counting every $ spending in India. Thats the reality now.

Basic Rule: Be patient on any treatment you receive if you want to get your job done. At this short time, do not send passport in mail/fedex/ups/usps to any place. Even if it is expensive, travel.

Good luck.

Why not other chapter follow this kind of a small event to bump up the letter numbers???

I received Green card approval email from USCIS even though my PD is not current

Last month I had changed my address online and USCIS bymistake updated my I-485 status to approved.
I received the Green Card approval email from USCIS. I checked my status on USCIS.gov it says my case has been approved and card production has been ordered.
The only document I have received from USCIS is for the correct address update notification. The letter states that, they have updated my Address successfully.

I have still not recived any GC as it has been over 3 weeks now. I would like to get back my status which was pending.
What should I do in this case?

We got RFE for my wife case too but it specifically mentioned that in the submitted report it was not cleraly mentioned if the skin test was done and so new medical form with TB Skin test( last time the Doctor just did the x-ray) needs to be submitted

Pixel Stretching is easy.

All you have to do is use the Single Line Selection tool and bring it to a spot in your photo or image. Then copy and paste onto a new layer.

Next, all you have to do is stretch that little area across the screen to the edge of your photo.

Ah, I suck at explaining ,you can see what I mean at the right half of this picture. When you see it, you will understand what I mean.

I had the same problem.. That you can file for ITIN only when filinf tax return. But the lady at the IRS office told me that if your spouse's name is added to an interest bearing account - say for example your savings bank account. Then IRS is required to assign an ITIN number to your spouse. There is a place to select the reason why you need the ITIN, on the form. You will need a letter from the bank that this person has an interst bearing account with us.. Thats all I sent and got the ITIN number for my wife.
