Oh man!!!

I love clowns. There are quite a few of them in Washington D.C. :)

CIR is called as CIRCUS as just it is happening for show every year for fun. Not sure when the show will start this year?

Looks like already two dick less Basterds visited this (who left -ve rep for me)

Our intention at IV is not to control any one's speech.

Dont you have any thing else better to do other than instigating another group of people?

Is this what the great state of AP and Telugu culture taught you?

As a fellow Andhrite, I feel ashamed with your choice of words.

My only thought is why arent they trying to re-introduce the visa recapture bill. But that thought in itself is a rhetorical question.

All,

My PD is 11/2003 and my case was transfered to PA backlog center, I have not heard anything since then.

My employer wants to call the Senators and Congressmen to see if they can expedite this process.

Could you please provide some suggestions on:

1. What should the employer tell to the law makers?
2.How will the law makers help me?
3. Do you have any fax/email templates?
4. Any other suggestions?

Thank you all for your help.

Dude

your regular employment letter that you get from HR should work. There is no special format for POE.
Thanks Dude :)

Hello all,
I am a student on an I20/M1 vis
I have just recieved a new I20, and sent a form I 539 for extension of my I20.
I have my old I94, I20 etc.
It is currently under processing.
First, is there any way they can move it to another processing center? Its in the vermont center right now, and they are still processing documents from May 2008 according to CIS website.
Second, my original I94 is valid till 14 April 2009 but my original I20 is expired.
My visa is 5 years(M1 valid to 2013)
Can I go and visit my home country with the old I94(since its valid long enough) and new I20(which just got issued)??
or do I need to wait until the processing comes through?
thanks in advance.


I think as long as you have valid visa and new I-20 you should be fine.

These questions are easily answered by school officials. Get a apointment and get a quick answere from your International student office.

It's a kirupian stamp after all ;)

hi,

thanks to everyone here for the kind input, I am almost done with my GC application under NIW. Since I have a load of documents for primary evidence,
how should I arrange them and where should I mention the "table of contents" so to speak. I have a detailed cover letter also.

thanks,
ashish

If you are impacted by unavailability of visa number, you can get 3 year extension of H1B after I-140 is approved. If your priority date is current, then you have to file for status adjustment, not H1B extension. If your lawyer does not understand the law, better get a "real" lawyer :)

I just got my Labor approved a couple week ago and now i want to file I-140 premium processing. But my lawyer's not allow me to do that coz once my I-140 approve i can't file my 8 th year extension. My 7th years H1B will expire on Aug 30, 2007.

I'm very confused now, on my understanding once i get my I-140 approve, i'm eligible to get my H1B 3 years extension.

FYI: i chose CP opotion, is that make me not eligible to get my H1B extension once my I-140 approve?

Please help and Big thanks

For I485, you and your lawyer (name on current G28) will get copy of the RFE. If you are planning to continue with the new lawyer then pls complete G28. Thanks.

From over an year, I have been working on EAD. Recently I resigned from my job, however I am still looking for a new job. I have a few questions related with EAD:
1. Even after leaving the company, is it legal for me to stay in the country and for how long?
2. Can I look for any kind of job on EAD or there is any restrictions?
3. Is it possible that my former employer can cancel my EAD?
4. If I find a new job, do I have to use immigration lawyers of my former employer to help renew my EAD, travel document etc. from time to time or I can hire another immigration lawyer?

Thanks.

I used the name of the other tracking site, which began to charge people money to "Track"

Apparently, IV has some kind of text-analysis tool that blocks the name of the "Other" site completely:)
Can you explain me...?

There are still some new members who keep posting that the bill S 1348 looks very good and it has SKIL provisions etc, because they get pointed to the last year's bill.

If you go on thomas.loc.gov and find bill text for S. 1348 you see a bill that is a copy-paste version of LAST YEAR'S SENATE BILL S. 2611.

That text is last years text that was initially put in place as a place-holder BEFORE the grand compromise was reached.

After the grand bargin (compromise/coalition) was reached, the text of the grand compromise replaced the entire text of last year's bill (that has SKIL) was the next text.

Amendment # 1150 (S.A. 1150) Sponsored by Sen. Kennedy is a 400 page amendment that replaces the entire text that was intially in the bill with the new text. Its a "Substitute" amendment.

Read the S. A. 1150 text. Its also on IV homepage as PDF. That is the bill now. Here is the link to that

I left the US for good after spending around 5 years on H1-B sometime last year and have only made entries on tourist visa. Can I apply for a new 6 year H1-B quota since leaving the H1-B status last year or will I have to spend 1 year outside since the last tourist visa entry ?

I applied for a green card for my wife just after we were married on May 11, 2009. We received an appointment for an interview in Detroit on August 25, 2009, but we had moved to Texas in the meantime. The appointment was rescheduled at the Dallas field centre on September 14, 2009 (Monday).

I am wondering what to expect, from the small details to the big stuff. My 3 biggest questions:
. Does anyone have enough experience to say if there is there reasonable parking available at the field centre? I have never been to Irving. The web page says that there is public parking available, but nothing about how much.
. I was married before, and applied for a green card for my first wife. It was granted in 2004, and we divorced in 2006. Should I expect extra scrutiny / challenge because of this?
. Is one actually asked questions of the "What sort of toothpaste does your wife use?" variety? I'm really bad at remembering these details, and am wondering if there's any curve ball that I should expect.
. Is there a general impression of whether the Dallas field centre is a pleasant or an unpleasant place? My dealings with my first marriage (many years ago) were all with the Chicago field centre, which is very unpleasant, but my one piece of business with the Detroit field centre were easy and pleasant.

Thanks so much to anyone who can help relieve my nervousness about what to expect.

UPDATE: I forgot to ask another one: At my previous green card interview, the interviewer asked for a set of passport photos and paystubs for several previous months, although the interview letter had not requested them. I had been warned about this, so I had them with me. Naturally, I am also bringing passport photos and pay stubs this time, just in case. Is there anything else that I might be expected to bring that wouldn't have been mentioned on the interview letter?

Can you please advise your processing center?
