Ok move over Prez elections..what happens in 09 after the Prez election..the current senate is the same..which refuses to pass any immi bill..just because the Prez elections will get over this year..why are we expecting that next year any bill will pass??..

So Lobby , more lobbying and extreme lobbying..is the way to go..!!I dont see any other way out;)

I will like to suggest is, try to talk to them nicely and try to make them understand what they have talked to you before filing GC.

Otherwise u dont have any choice, definitely u cant risk being rude with them. They can still hurt you as they still have all the cards in their hand.

About the G328 form, i have read in other posts that for some companies HR have signed for the applicant.

It seems like every company has their own way of filling GC. I am sure u are not the first one who are filing GC through your company.

I hoep this helps.

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.
EAD renewed last year got one year only now we have to renew this year again.
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:

I took infopass appointment to know the status of my I 485. 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....

Any one is facing same kind of situation?
Please let me Know.

Hi

I am in same situation as you. my priority date is June 06.

i took info pass and went to baltimore office. he said name check is cleared and the case is pending in TSC. I asked him to let me know if my case is coded under EB2 or not. he said he does not have that info.

Hope LUDs will be there soon.

Thanks

Hello everyone,
I got to know about this website recently and I wish I had known it earlier.


Anyway, I need advice/conformation


I got married recently outside the US. However, I did not come back with my wife b/c of a couple of reasons. And I cannot bring her here in the next 3 weeks. (My H1B is getting renewed...)

The company's lawyer is advising me not file for I-485 and wait till I become current again and apply with my wife then. (I am EB3 and my PD is March 2005)

After reading this web and others, if I go ahead and apply now the following are the choices that I have later. Please confirm if I am right or wrong

1. Get every document ready for my wife at all times and apply for I-485 immediately after I become current. As long as they receive her I-485 before they approve mine, she is going to be fine. She will be fine even if they receive her I-485 a day before they approve mine.

2. If my I-485 gets approved before my wife�s I-485 get there, under section 245(k), she has 180 days to send in her I-485 as long as PD is current. And there is no penalty and no other problem with this. She can stay in the country and wait for her I-485 to approve.

3. If I though that it was a grave mistake to apply for my I-485, I can withdraw it before it gets approved and reapply later with my wife�s when I become current again. No problem with this other than paying the fees again.

4. My wife and change her H4 to F1 any time she wants to as long as she goes to school full time. She could be on F1 and apply for I-485 when I become current (I feel uneasy on this one).

Please, let me know if what I listed above is right. These are the only choices that I have ready about. If there are more choices please, let me know that too. I have to make a decision by the end of tomorrow. Thank you all!

Instead of all this country caps, applying for GC and waiting, why don't they get a rule like European countries? In UK, netherlands and Denmark it is very simple. All you have to do is prove that you made more money (ofcouse taxes count) than the stipulated amount by the government. Pay the taxes for 4 or 5 years and take the GC(Permanent Resident). Simple no lawyer no crap. Country benefits we benefit. I lived in UK for more than 3 years and I would have become a citizen by now. But never wanted to be in UK, it was only a stop over. I always loved America, don't know why? Do you think it is because of Hollywood? I'm kidding. But still I love this country. Hope things will change some day. If not my daughter will sponsor me when she turns 21.

Yes… It’s me Sreedhar. According to the conversation with my cousin, what ever I posted here is true. I am not sure what IO said is going to be happen or not. My cousin and myself working in the same office. I will keep update what ever happen to his case.

Hello All,

I am giving this information after my cousin complete the interview with USCIS on 09/03/2008. Please take a look at the detail conversation bellow.

IO: Immigration Officer
MC: My Cousin

You applied at the right service center TSC. I also live in NC and applied on July 25th at TSC and got the Receipt notices.

Did you check the processing dates for TSC for I765? I think currently they are processing applications applied before April 16, 2008.

So dont worry.. But you may call TSC Service center for any status

There are several spots in the Indy area where you can get such a perspective. One with easy access is high atop Crown Hill cemetary (i.e., the James Whitcomb Riley hilltop gravesite). Sunrise or sunset would be your best bet unless you hit on a really crystal-clear day with no midday haze. You might find something close to what you are after around 16th and Georgetown road, too ;)

Awesome idea!
Anymore idea anyone while I'm out and about on my day off?;)

U definitely and and will :)

My name(s) were mispeld as well...My lawyer talked to USCIS and sorted it out.

Exactly! disable free preview of forums to guests. That will propel the number of members. Even anti immigration folks will count towards the number as it will become inevitable for them to register.

I think the free preview should be limited to 2-3 messages after which they should be asked to register as a member.

not really, but close.

Hi Surge
You should then consult a lawyer.

Yes. Chem2 is right. Your salary should be matching with your H1B LCA. GC LCA salary is supposed to be for future job. I also have the same issue and I confirmed it with my lawyer and Others too. Is your I-140 approved ?

Thanks for ur reply... but i ve already bought the ticket...so shud i buy another one-way ticket :confused:

1. Cancel your one-way ticket and get a two way ticket with future date
2. Get another one-way return ticket.

Work out a cost difference and decide! for sure, you need to furnish a proof at the port of entry that you will be returning to home country, one of the proofs would be your return ticket.

Gurus,

I went to infopass today. Last time when I went infopass in Oct 08, I was told that my namecheck is pending. I wanted to see whether any progress has been made on that,so took an infopass. When I asked the IO about the status of my namecheck, I was told that one namecheck is clear but the other is pending. I specifically asked her to look by my A # as I thought she might be referring to dependants namecheck status. But she replied back stating that there could be multiple namechecks for an individual and it is not unusual for some individuals to have three, four namechecks. And in my case as one of them is clear, they probably will go with cleared one.

Now I am confused. Can there be multiple namechecks initiated at around the same timeframe? I was told both the namechecks were initiated in 07.

sorry if i am wrong..
How can someonw get a result on 140 with in 6 months, whn the waiting period is more thn 1 yr..
i just dont trust these consultants..

what if for some reason you miss the flight or it gets canceled, give yourself some buffer time and save a lot of grief.

Decide a few dollars is more important than getting I-485 on time or not.

I have seen the same thing with B1 people, first they forget the rule is 180 days not six months then they book last day flight and are here beyond I-94 date.

Folks,

Thanks for taking time to answer my question. Seems the risk is greater than the reward. We would just ask her to travel on her original scheduled date!

There are a lot of IV members whose labor is not approved yet (like me) or did not have their 140 filed as of May 15.

I am still waiting.

To remain in status, please file asap. large companies, do revoke H1 after layoffs.

If you don't get laid off, you can just ignore the H1 you filed. its also a challenge to get H1 sponsors these days.
