Initially we applied for Labor in July 2001. Waited for 3.5 years to get approval. USCIS processed applications recieved in April 2001 for more than three years!! In January 2005 we finally got our Labor certification. In April 2005 we applied for I-140 and I-485 at the same time. I-140 was approved on July 2005. I-485 still pending due to the name check not complieted for primary applicant.
The same question over and over again, for how long will we wait more?

Thanks for your comments.
I am from ROW and PD is 04/2002 which is current right now. Did the PP for I-140 and all medicals are done.
I am kind of scared of Name Check process. Lets see what happens.

Thanks for your reply. What does DMV care about to decide till when the license will be valid?
1. H1 visa on the passport
2. H1 approval notice
3. Can I show them the AP?

Hi ,
my experience with O visa is that paperwork, presentation, previous track record of the lawyer with USCIS is critical
so in this case, absorbing the 5000 cost difference may be a good idea
Of course you can always ask your employer if they are willing to take that hit but as you know you have a 50 % chance there at the best
So decision is yours

A lot of folks doing OPT from non IT fields applied for this year's H1b through IT consulting companies so that they reserve something like "H1b ticket" and are looking at getting h1b transferred to their non IT companies where they do OPT.
Dunno how all this will work out, will IT consulting companies help these folks to get a transfer as soon as they get approval?? I was under the impression that IT consulting companies want these folks to contribute to their business and not to use it as a reservation ticket system.
All folks trying to do this, talk to lawyers and be careful, don't believe ur IT consulting firms thinking they will give u a smooth transfer.

I forgot to post my update - I actually did get my appointment with Xvars.com (http://www.xvars.com) . They got me the appointment about 2 days after I signed up, and I got my stamping done in Toronto on Dec 16th. I also chose Montreal as backup but got my original choice. Good luck to people stamping visas in canada. it is much easier and faster than going back to the home country.

What would be fee for the old folks who filed I-485 in June?
Use the new fee for EAD as June filers did not pay the new USCIS fee for 485 filing.

It is a case to sign in native language...
Your question is not clear.
did you forget to sign the G-325A form where it says "Sign here"
OR
did you forget to write your name in native alphabet?
In first case, it will be considered improperly filed and chances are it will be rejected.
In second case, even if your native language is other than English, the person who does initial review will not know that and it will be accepted and processed.
I hope it is the second case .

Hi Gurus,
Please advise me regarding my situation
My current H1B expires May 1s1 and I have my H1B extension pending (in lieu of GC pending with the same company, and EAD is not an option for me because of dependents) with a fortune 500 company A, with whom I am employed. They plan to do a round of layoffs in a couple of weeks that I am sure my team is a part of.
With the foreknowledge of pending situation, please let me know if I can validly take the following course of action.
I am thinking that I premium process my 3 year H1extension with company A right away, then have it transferred to company B. Only problem is extension starts in a future date, ie May 1st.
Can I get my current+extended H1B transferred to company B even before the start date of extended May1st . If I have to wait till May1st to get it transferred, does it matter that on May 1st I am not with company A anymore.

Ok! Thought of starting this thread to track EAD/AP/FP notices and updates for early july filers. This way we can see if there is any kind of pattern going on. My details below:
I-140 cleared from TSC
485 filed july 2nd with NSC
Checks cleared on 9/4 and got RN# starting with SRC (TSC)
USCIS Case update shows "Last update" as 9/3 for EAD/AP.
Thanks,

I just got off the phone with a second level rep at USCIS and am getting really confused with their mixed messaged. before i push any panic buttons can some one please let me know if they had any conversations with the idiotic bunch at uscis and share your conversations with regards to the visa availability for next month. this idiot states that vsc just oversubscribed and that it could be that there wont be any movement on the cases. all this over enthusiasm for nothing - that would really infuriate me. there is a limit to the fuss they can cause and play with emotions.
Let us look at it positively. Sept dates are already published. Therefore, centers are now free to assign visas for cases they may have already preadjudicated, but wait for issuing approvals until September. It is quite possible that all the visas available have already been assigned to these preadjudicated cases, and they are now just waiting for September to come so that they can issue formal approvals

I am on H1B visa and my wife has filed N400. We have been married for 1 year and 2 months. she just gave her finger printing on June 10th. we have not yet filed I130 petition as of yet as we were thinking to do that after she gets her citizenship. But today I got laid off from work and the immigration officer mentioned that my wife should file I130 ASAP to avoid deportation. In form I30 On line Item 15 it says to enter the name and address of present employer. I got laid of from work on June 19 today and my wife is filing this I130 petition on Monday June 23. My termination letter indicates june 19th date. I will receive my last pay stub on July 3rd.
Should I put the name of the current employer on line 15 or should I say "unemployed" and explain in a seperate piece of paper about recent layoff? I will be out of status and will be inviting immigration if I mentioned that. Please help.

Thanks...I haven't worked with cap H1b before.
So it seems IMPOSSIBLE to change job from university to company since most companies won't help you apply H1B on April and wait 6 months (till Oct) to put you into work.

Hi,
I don't have any intention to change job after I pass 180 days of my I485 receipt date. But these are my concerns
If I get the green card, Is it mandatory to work for the original sponsor company for 6 months? or AC21 Portability will work in this case.
What if the following happens when I get the green card
1. Layoff from the sponsor company
2. Sponsor is out of business or compony does not exists
3. Refuse to give employment
Thanks
achu :rolleyes:

We should not mention who we are speaking to in a public forum. This will trigger all kinds of opposition flooding to whomever you mention, which will work against us
Join your state chapter, they will be able to help coordinate and get contacts and visits etc.

HI,
I received a 500$ check for apartment referral , I am planning to give the entire amount to the person who took the apartment. I was wondering if during the tax return filing I should be reporting this as an income and if yes should I be deducting the tax amount from the 500$ as I will be paying taxes on it.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
