Look is good. But, for me I liked the old one. May be it would take some time for me to get used to new look. Site seems to be slow though.
Best thing was the candidate history infront of his name.

Anyway, good job done Admins. Best of luck.

this is a good find! they need to have 3 year extensions on EAD

They have been talking about this since 2004 - http://www.murthy.com/news/n_extead.html - but nobody has done anything about it as far as I know.

Please respond so that we can get an idea of the distribution of EB cases.

Thanks to MrWaitingGC for the initiative.

For any reasonable immigration reform to pass, politicians need an urgency to act. That urgency comes only from an imminent threat to their sitting offices - beyond party lines.

People who are stuck in the immigration process should do a better job in uniting and in working with registered voters so that the issue of immigration reform is a concern for any incumbent elected official.

No one approach is perfect but undocumented workers do a better job in connecting with their community and letting their voices heard than so called "skilled immigrant" community. Our silence makes CIR amnesty and will be dead on arrival.

I personally think it�s true specially for FB AOS applicants where no intermediate step like EAD and AP between visitor�s visa and final approval. It may also be true for EB AOS applicants where EAD hasn�t been issued and H1 extension hasn�t filled.

EAD - is work authorization. It is not a status document. You can be in this country without EAD if you are on AOS and not working. EAD is needed only if you are working.

AOS - AOS (I-485 pending) is a status in itself. This status allows you to stay in the country irrespective of whether you have an EAD.

These days all H1 transfers and extensions for consulting companies are attracting RFEs for client PO. I heard this from many friends. Also the extension is given only till the PO end date even if you are eligible for 3 yr extension based on approved I-140. Basically you have to prove your project pipeline to get a longer extension. :eek:

Some of the RFE requirements are ridiculous.. like getting lease info for client office building and letter from president of client company explaining business relationship with petitioner. Big outsourcing companies will soon start moving more jobs and work offshore if this trend continues.

Its part of a puzzle game.

She is posting one fraction of the question one site, other fractions on other site.

Now you have to assemble all pieces together and respond to her.

If you win, you get to date her. She is only looking for smart guys and this explains the plot :D

If you win, her husband will be after you...:D

Just wondering if anybody ever complains of I140 being slow? :p

It is for pending 485. I do not have RFE now. Because i saw so many rfe issued by CIS. I left my previous company few month ago. The previous attorney can not represent me anymore. But he is willing to send me the rfe if he receive it. Do I still need to hire another attorney to represent me if there is rfe or i can do it by myself.

thansk.

I personally think it�s true specially for FB AOS applicants where no intermediate step like EAD and AP between visitor�s visa and final approval. It may also be true for EB AOS applicants where EAD hasn�t been issued and H1 extension hasn�t filled.

Can you imagine this. USCIS had been given strict guidelines from DHS to complete every case in 6 monts depending on the form type.

How about filing our taxes on April 16, but not on April 15?

IF everyone contributes an average of $200, we will have $ 4 million and IV WILL have all the resources to resolve all of our problems.....


WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR ???????????


ANOTHER NEAR FATAL KICK LIKE THE VISA REVERSAL????????????



WAKE -UP & CONTRIBUTE TODAY IF NOT DONE TILL NOW



THANKS
Wow I did not realize we are now 20K + strong. This is incredible. The stronger we are the better we can do with our advocacy efforts.

Can someone post details about which Service Center to send the 485 papers - Nebraska or Texas?

It is based on employer location or employee location?

Link to a USCIS article or something else will be extremely helpful.

Sorry, if this is a repost. I searched but could not find anything.

see above
Thank you...

I got stuck in FBI name check for over 2+ years (24+ months)... run out of
patience or anything :mad: . I now decide to sue them by filing writ of mandamus in court. I'd like to have an experienced attorney do it for me. I'm looking for an attorney who is responsible and responsive, has been successful in filing writ of mandamus for clients to get the name check moving. If you know/use any attorney like this, would you please let me know by emailing me or sending email to prof_risk at hotmail dot com, thanks a lot!

I live in Maryland, I'd like the attorney to be located in great DC area.
I really appreciate your help

Friend

There is already another thread for this AND by the way july bulletin is not out yet, may be in the next 4 or 5 days

Does anyone out there knows when is the next visa bulletin,I mean with the date the bulletin will be released?

Zee.

Where is the link to this article?

Does it mean that if you get a receipt number in the case of an H1 transfer your case would definitely be approved?? i.e. Receipt number = Transfer approval?? :confused: Anybody familiar with the transfer process should please enlighten.

It seems you can start working as soon as the application is sent out. This was the advice given to my firend by his attorney.

He consulted some other lawyers. They say that it is safe to get the receipt number before starting to work.

So to be on the most safe side, wait until you get the receipt number.
But many people do start soon after sending the transfer petition...I know people who have done that. My friend is also not going to wait for the receipt as he has to join immediately.

The indian consulate needs a proof of address for me and my wife
We sent them the Property tax bill and hoped that it would work but get this mail from travisa

Proof Of Residence - Unacceptable
The proof of address received in your application is not acceptable for submission to the Indian Consulate. You must submit a proof of residence/address that matches the present address on the PIO application exactly. Photocopy of state issued ID (Driver License or ID), or major utility bill (Water, Gas, Electric, Sewage) or a copy of a lease containing both the landlord and tenant signatures must be submitted. The following items are not accepted: cell phone bill, credit card statement or bank statement. The address cannot include a P.O. box. For minors, a parent or guardian proof of address from both parents may be submitted instead. You can fax the proof of address to Fax: (415) 644-0158. In addition, you also have the option of mailing a paper copy to the address below.

Now why does not a property tax not work ? it is issues by the county.

We do not have the current address on my wife's driver's license and her name is not there on the PGandE bill

Any suggestion ? or anyone had a similar issue ?

Thanks in advance !!

Sorry abt. that. Send other documents to show proof of address. Interesting to know, they are not accepting "Property Tax Notice" as proof of address. I happened to send the "Property Tax Notice" too, as it includes my wife's name, but also included the Driver's license for us both and it got accepted. You will have to attach copy of your Immigration Document as well, if you have EAD/AP or any other Document with current address and your Driver's license, you should be okay. Try calling them to discuss, they are pretty good in answering phone.

What if 6 months are left before my 6 years of H1B expires? Can I still get 3 years extension based on approved I-140 from another company?

I think you can get the extension with new company too. While applying for the transfer request extension upto Feb 2010. You might have to provide the I140 approval again to prove that you are eligible for 3-year extension.


I think you can join the company immediately. To be in safe side you can apply for transfer in premium.

As you might be aware there is no such thing as H1B transfer - every h1b application is a new one for that company and you as beneficeiry. So when applying for H1B with new company - you have to provide evidence that you are eligible for the H1B. The evidence is to show you are already on H1B (so that you are not subject to annual cap); and that you have enough time on H1B if you already completed 6 years then evidence to prove that you are eligible for further extension of h1b. So in short yes you can get 3 years with new employer. (NOTE: I am not lawyer this is my understanding based on various sources; I am also considering moving after my i140 is approved).

I self filed for EAD. Was very easy. I plan to do the same for AP. $1000 is a lot for AP filing.
