I don't know what else to say and I am wondering how ignorant you could be. Even 2008 October bulletin will not be current for EB2 India (cutoof date may not be even Dec 05) with the current 140,000 visas per year.

Hey guys,

My MTR was approved almost 3 months ago and my attorney received the MTR approval notice.

The decision was that both mine and my wife's I-485's are reopened.

But its been almost 3 months and online status on USCIS website has not changed yet......

Does anyone noticed the same situtation with their MTR approval and no online status change?

- Prince

Hi Prince,
Would you please tell me if your status is updated yet? If yes, How long did it take from MTR approval to updated status?
I have an approved MTR but it says that they are going to review my I-140. I have no idea how long will it take. Is there any possibility that the deny I-140 after Approval of MTR(I290B)?
Thanks,

I HAD SAME SITUATION FEW DAYS A GO, MY ATTORNEY TOLD ME THAT I NEED TO GO OUT OF COUNTRY ATLEAST FOR WEEK OR NEED TO FILE FOR H1B EXT.
I CHOSE TO FILE FOR EXT AS MY H1 WAS EXPERING AS WELL.
BUT FOR HER SHE MUST GO OUT BEFORE HER I-94 EXPIRES
i AM NO ATTORNEY PLEASE CONFIRM WITH 1.

Hi,

I received an RFE on my AP and it's says Proof of that I have complied with NSEERS. Now how do I proof this as looks like nobody have got such an RFE.

Thanks

Your wife might have a problem in leaving US with expired I94 , if the immigration officer who is collecting sees that I94 is expired she is subject to 10 year BAN unless she goes CANADA or MEXICO route where they don't collect I94's and to come back in she needs advance parole to be approved receipt may not help .

I left US while under AOS with an expired I-94 and came back with out any problems.

Some loser gave me red with the following message.
Don't keep posting same message.

Let me tell you A**H***, when ppl like you do not call I have to post same message again & again & again....
So do your part & call.

I doubt if it'll be a GC process for illegals. I guess at best that would be a temp visa.

If it is a GC, then there's no way they can give illegals preference over legals. In this case we're a little screwed since the lines will be filled with people (who can prove they've been longer than us)

If it's a temp visa, we're still screwed - because of the additional processing, they may not process GCs as fast (!) as they're doing now.

That's my speculation so far.

Can anyone else have opinion on this?

Who do you know?

it means playing politics... just showing the grass infront of the Cows .. saying something lipservice to satisfy the audience... KULFI is kind of Pot icecream ( I do not know pot icecream is the exact translation!)

Hope this helps

pmb76,

Good job on your letter to her. I am trying to write one to her also and will use yours as a template.

hi ,

Here is my situation.

(employer) -> (middle vendor ) -> prime vendor -> (End client ).

I am working to a client in california in the above mentioned order. After 1 year we got rid of middle vendor and prime vendor is working with my employer directly . Now middle vendor is threatning me that he can sue me for breaking the line of contract .

i dont understand ho can even its possible as i never signed any document with middle vendor and he is not even my employer . He is just acting as middle layer by showing prime vendor that i am his employee which is wrong. now we removed him from line of contract and he is saying that he will sue all of us for doing this.

is there any way that he can even do this ?

- Thanks in advance.

Breaking the line of contract: What contract? Did he mention that? Also, why does he want to sue you?

Thanks for the reply. My lawyer told me that she has seen a case when the green card application was accidently submitted with a copy of an expired passport, and there wasn't any problem. However, she's not certain if this is what happens with every application submitted with an expired passport.

Could someone with experience related to this please reply? I'd really appreciate it.

1) The award you submitted was academic in nature. USCIS maintains that student awards such as fellowships, scholarships do not meet this criteria. Do you have anythingelse that is nationally recognized? Show me the evidence.

2) You submitted your work at research meetings. That is what researchers are supposed to do. How is your work is above and beyond what is out there in those meetings? "Consequently, it does not follow that all scientists who are asked to present their findings enjoy sustained acclaim in their field". Show me how your presentation history exceeds others.

3) Show the clear evidence that you have performed a leading and critical role in your organization.

4) You published several papers. But scientists are supposed to publish and dessiminate their work. Please resubmit updated citation listing. Please submit objective listing that your publication history exceeds the rest of the field.

Gurus... do I have a chance with these questions. I don't have any other national or international award such as Presidential Medal or Nobel Prize.

My presentation at international conferences are posters. Nothing great such as plenary talk.

I can submit more evidence of publications and citations.
Letter about my role and responsibilities as leader in my institution.

Thats it. Do I have a chance?

Anything can happen, but looks unlikely. How many publications do you have, and how many citations each paper has received? How many recommendation letters and from whom did you submit?

BTW: if the "award" is a standard university scholarship, that would not fly.

Please help....I am in a little bit precarious situation here...


I am frustrated working for Company A and I have a job offer from Company B..

My question is if
1: my I140 is approved from company A and
2: have H1b extended for 3 years for company A
3: get the H1b transferred over to Company B and then

leave the Company A and join Company B
Now Company A revokes I140

Will by H1B with Company B still valid?

I did my footer in Photoshop 7, exported as .png and imported the images into Flash MX. Added a little actionscript and *bam*, I got me a new footer.


Umm.. there is also www.carbonfour.com ....they are pretty good.

Whether EB3 or EB2 is dependent upon the job description.
Suppose your job requires only a BS degree and you have a MS, you cannot still apply under EB2. The job should require a MS degree or equivalent if you need to be under EB2.

Honestly I didn't know about this factor when I joined work. I thought I could apply under EB2 since I had a MS degree.

Better that you asked about these options now, rather than finding it out years later when you are about to apply for the final stage.

Hi,

I am a F1 student and am on OPT now. I got my H1B visa approved from Oct-1 2006 to Sep-30 2009.

But my school said I cannot get my degree certificate till December 2006.
My question is when I apply for my Green card will I be considered into EB2 list or EB3 list. On what basis will this be decided.

Please suggest.

Thank you,
Vijaya.

Most likely, you will be asked to just wait for 90 days from the date of filing before someone can look into ur status...but good luck anyways !

this is my experience - I efiled for myself for EAD only (no AP applied so far - we had been to India recently) and I got a FP notice. for my wife, we renewed by postal mail and she didnt get any FP notice -- we already recd her EAD card (in roughly 25 - 30 days).
I had efiled mine few days before her and so
far nothing - only soft LUD's.
and yes ..EAD was renewed for only one year ..so I guess USCIS still treats this as a cash cow !!!http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/images/smilies/mad.gif
:mad:

i am wondering do you have LUd for i-485 or i-131 or i-140 ?

I had applied under EB-2 category and my priority date is: 3/3/2006.
My I-485 was filed on 8/2/2007.
My I-485 was approved and I received my Green Card on Aug 15th 2008. Surprisingly and rather unfortunately, there was no action on my wife's I-485. My wife�s case was submitted with my own case on 8/2/07. The TSC at that time reported that �normal� processing time is 7/16/2007. So basically I got mine out of turn or by chance. The TSC protocol permits attorneys to inquire regarding the status of an I-485 beyond normal processing time if the receipt date is more than 30 days beyond the published processing date. So we could not inquire about my wife's application and soon the priority date changed back.

She has an EAD approved until Oct 2010. She is currently employed. I am also employed with my first company and have been with them for 5 yrs now.

My questions are:
1. What happens to my wife's I-485 application, should I choose to leave my job and go back to school ?
2. Will her EAD still be valid if I leave my job ?
2. I am planning to go full-time starting Fall 2010. Will we be able to renew her EAD independent of my work status ?

Thanks a lot for your time and attention,
