Every time I call USCIS to inquire if my I-140 is filled under EB2 or EB3. They ask me to ask my lawyer or employer to call. They won't tell me. I do have a copy of I-140 that states it is Eb2 (Advance degree and all)
I cannot ask my previous enployer to call as I have left the company using AC21.
Please advise what is the solution?

EB2, if your I-140 approval reads as "Section: Mem of Profession w/Adv Deg, or of Exceptn'l Ability Sec.203(b) (2)" You should be worried only if you had two different 140 with the same employer. Take infopass and give a try, there is no standard procedure to find out.

Is AC21 relevant at all for NIW applicants? It can not be as there are no employers filing for such people. However is there anything related to that for such applicants?
Can't they change job or use EAD for whatever job they want to take?
Should the new job be exactly the same type of job?
If an NIW applicant loses job, will that be a problem?
When USCIS is going to know/check on what job the applicant is currently working? Is this going to happen at the I-140 approval stage or I-485 stage or when somebody applies for Citizenship?

Any NIW applicants around here in IV?

We all need to come together and work for a Skill Bill or atleast be able to file for I-485 without Visa number availability so that we can get EAD's, Buy houses, Travel in and out of the country without going to the consulate, not pass up on projects which need a lot of International Travel. Can we work for this?. This would help a lot of us keep our minds peaceful

For stamping you should not need pay stubs to prove your staus. Uninterrupted pay stubs are very important for change of status when you are applying while in US. When you leave US you dont have a status, the visa officer should not base his decision on the continuity of pay stubs. I went through a very similar situation, my change of satus was denied even though I was on genuine unpaid leave. However I ended up leaving the country and getting H1B stamped in India with no problems.

Does anyone know what email / letter(s) one should get when the GC is approved ?

I received this email two days ago:

On November 13, 2006, a welcome notice was mailed for this case. If 30 days have passed and you have not received this notice. Please call the National Customer Service Center at (800) 375-5283 during business hours.

Does this constitute as a GC approval ?

I read in other threads that a "card ordered" email follows the GC approval but I haven't received the email (nor the physical card yet).

Does it normally take 1 or more weeks for the physical card to arrive after approval ?

Thank you for any insight you can provide.

Not a legal advise. My 2 cents.

I have never heard of employers pulling credit history to decide upon job offers. I have changed jobs when I had no credit history and when credit history was bad (in 500s) because of outstanding debt (no delinquency though), never had any issues.

Hi, I would like to change job but my credit history is so bad. credit score is in recovery stage. I was unable to pay credit card debt and worked with settlement company and settled all the cards..I paid every thing as of last month. But there were delequencies still appearing on my report..

I am working for a decent company, but i would like to change the job due to uncertainity and very less compensation..

It is very very urgent. Can some one suggest if there will be any issues that matters job switching. In general, will the companies pull credit reports and deny jobs based on credits...Will the credit history matters.. I did not had any foreclosures or bankruptsy.

Plz plz suggest..looking for a way around..

I would like to know the chances of my H1 getting approved. Because the company is small am I going to face any problems? What will be the impact of the size of the company on H1 approvals.

I would really appreciate your inputs because this time I want to resume my career again and I don't want to have any problems with H1.

Thanks,

Besides, depending upon how the "CLASS" is defined- you will not lose your claim if they win the lawsuit.

It does not require you to have filed your case to benefit from the class action , but it depends on how the class has been defined. You can goto Rajiv's website and hear the latest conference call recording which explains his opinion on this.

I've found this site to be very helpful so far and would like to ask for some opinions on my case.

My I-485 (EB2) was submitted in 2007 and the PD is approaching, only 5 days away based on June's VB. My girlfriend is currently with F-1 visa and we are planning on getting married asap so that she can submit her 485 before my case is approved.

Here's the complete list that I can think of based on the research that I've done.

Documents that my future wife's need prepare

I-485 form
birth certificate
marriage certificate
medical exam
passport pages (I-94 card ect)
I-20 form
Two photos


Documents that I need prepare

My I-485 receipt
????

Wish you everyone good luck.

Many thanks,
Joey

It is very important to get married before your GC is approved. Even if you are 1 day late, you cannot file I-485 or follow to join. So its better to get married before June 1st to remove any such risk. Good luck!

yeah it does seem a bit un-alive. but i'm glad you like it man. Kirupa usually writes back and says - i've added it up when he likes a stamp. He will in time, no doubt but because of various contests that are taking place, perhaps he is very busy. In fact I am trying to think up a competition for him at the moment, but they all seem to have been done at some point in the past - t shirt etc. Perhaps the most obvious idea for a competition on a forum such as this would be a web page design? give people some guidlines and let them design a nice webpage in a sort of css style - but give them a title or ficticious company (perhaps something like - The new official site for Elvis and Graceland) - even if it is not an actual scripted site in html - only a jpg? but god knows who would give out prizes for such a contest. In the recent magazine cover competition (which i am a judge for) someone has offered considerable prizes. Maybe Kirupa could contact lisa marie and ask her ;)

Gurus,

I am considering switching my employer.

Currently I have I-140 and labor for GC approved in 2006.
Filed I-485 in July 2007.

My current H-1B expires on December 2009. (9 years on H-1B.... ya that long)

Based on my AC-21 portability after 180 days of I-140 approval, if I move to a new employer and file H-1B transfer, will I get default approval of only upto December 2009, or can I get 3-year extension based on my I-140 approval?

Appreciate your answers in advance.

Thanks,
Optimizer
You can get 3 years extension based on your approved I140. Please consult a lawyer before jumping into conclusions though.

Understood. However, my question is still is unanswered. My question was when can I apply for the new 3 year H1-B term

Scenario1: I can apply after 1 year anniversary of leaving H1 adding the 15 days spent in the US on B2 status ?

Scenario2: I can apply after the the 1 year anniversary of my last entry in the US which is obviously on B2 visa since I have entered a couple of times on B2 after leaving H1 ?

Question 2
A related question is how does the USCIS know my H1 cancellation date ? Do I ask my previous employer for it ? It cant be my last US paycheck date because my employer put money in my account a few months after I left H1 as well because of some payroll issue. The H1-B visa stamp was cancelled also few months after the actual leaving H1 date when I got my B2 stamp .

It is not clear if they are going to initiate a name check again. This could be associated with when your fingerprints get invalidated. If they initiate a fresh fingerprint (for what ever reason) without refreshing the existing one, that could trigger a name check. So that could be why they have a secondary check on preadjudicated cases.

If less than 20,000 MS H1B applications were received on April 2, what will be the rules of the lottery? Will all those whose applications were received on April 2 be guaranteed a H1? In this case,will lottery apply for April 3 and April 4?

If an application is received on April 2 and there are enough h1s available then clearly that application wont be subjected to a lottery. Lottery is only applicable to applications received on the same day when there are not enough h1s available.

first: my use of an extreme example to explain the EB category difference seems to have caused misunderstanding and offence among some people. this was not the intention, no slight was intended to anyone. sometimes one uses an extreme situation to make a point (3 yr degree in this case). I was not trying to stereotype and if that is how it came through...here is my humble apology.

i did reply to some of the posters by pm and had some intresting comments/discussion. its one of the nice things about this forum that people bring different insights into a problem...

qvadis, there is fundamental difference between allotting Employment based Gc on the basis of country of birth and based on job classifications/requirements. One happens to pertain to employment, the other is simply a way to mantain ahem "purity".
having said that, i do not favor the removal of country quotas in isolation- the redistribution of dates would make things better for long suffering people but it would not change the overall picture. therefore i support the package in its entirity (as does IV), ie recapture + STEM exemption + removal of country quotas. this would bring in substantially increased numbers and resolve the problem with ROW dates.

now that its established that this thread will not go back to its original intent, do the OPs mind if i close it? may be best to restart the discussion in a new thread?

I think it all boils down to this scenerio
you have a seriously injured uninvited person in your front lawn about to die. what are you gonna do ?
Some people would want that 'problem' to go away and some would want to help the person. Our actions make what we are ..
BTW if anyone is interested, child birth generates 9 dols (measure of pain) of pain and at 10 dols a person dies. 9 dols is maximum pain a human being can suffer.

Take your pick.

Guys, we are all educated here and I believe have a higher IQ than your average Joe. So why dont you see that this is not about helping a fellow human being in need. Everyone should do that. The sheriffs dept took her to the hospital to ensure that in case there is any complication, things could be take care of. Why? Because its the law and the majority in this country respect the law. No one, even illegals, can be denied emergent care. This would not happen if she were in Mexico or India. No free medical care there, and no one gives a shit about the rights of prisoners there. So what happens next? This woman, WHO HAS NO BUSINESS BEING IN THIS COUNTRY, goes to her advocacy group who arrange to have an article in the news that tries to portray this as if the sheriff forced her to deliver in a prison. This is all to garner sympathy for the illegal immigrant. We should know better and see through their guile. The illegal lobby is the main reason why there is no chance for meaningful reform for legal immigrants to be passed. They insist on linking us to them.
If every one decides to choose for themselves which law they will obey and which they will ignore, society can not exist. And as I pointed out in my previous post, this woman has a history of repeated violations of the law and is NOT a victim that this biased article tries to portray her as.
And your theory about child birth leading to near death like pain is absolutely baseless. Pain is a subjective phenomenon and what is expireinced as a 9/10 by some hysterical yuppy, will be a 0 to others. Childbirth is a NATURAL phenomenon. Ask your grandma and she will tell you how every one delivered without epidurals and caeserians at her time.

Every week I take time to do some research so that I can be on top of the immigration updates, and why not?
Attorneys have absolutely no clue about the problems and despair we are going thru. They drag heels on simple processing and documentation work, oblivious to the fact that even a single day just adds to our woes.

I need to plan more than 6 months in advance for any major change in my life , be it marriage, having a baby, investing in property - u name it. Every single life event has a big question mark after it. Will I get the visa stamped? Will I be able to extend status? Can I do this, Can I do that? Well I guess life has an immigrant in the US (legal or illegal) has a question mark ?
I am going thru this frustrating non-ending wait to get anywhere close to permanent residency. I had filed for labor - Then came the DOL overhaul, where labor certification decisions are rolled out in the most haphazard, and random fashion one can ever imagine. Unable to wait any longer I even quit the company that filed my LC and joined another company
I am waiting for the new co to file a new LC under PERM - Again I need to wait as LCs can't be filed immediately for new hires - Even finding a co that can provide immigration benefits along with other personal benefits becomes a challenge.
Now I wish my old LC never gets approved - It remains pending for a few more years - at least I can get incremental h1b extensions. (thanks to the AC21 silver lining)
I just have another year left on my H1. I have worked for over 5 years legally, never going out of status, paying all taxes.
My spouse even gave up the idea of working here legally. The long wait for immigration benefits is now a part of my life - All I can do is pray that our senators when going for recess while discussing immigration; get some thought into their heads abt the nightmare that legal immigrants go thru....

This proves a point that we should stand up and protest against anything unjust,instead of being a passive spectator.

Kudos to all who joined the flower campaign and San Jose rally.

I don't know if the memo thing is correct or not but I did call NSC using POJ method and I was told not to expect anything before Oct 1st.

I think that was another way of saying that we have received a memo otherwise why will he tell you that.

Although it may sound ridiculous but why is everyone want to put any limits to it. If proper controls can be put in place that there are genuine jobs and candidates are genuine then there shouldn't be any limits. How come no one wants to go for this solution. It actually makes more sense then just increasing the quota or not including dependents, etc.

No cap would be the best solution... but that is very tough to sell in Washington....That's why all this complications of asking to take dependents out of the cap and allowing overflow to go to China/India...

As I understand, IV already made these arguments to senators and even the senators who are sympathetic to immigration are not willing to remove the cap..The only thing they would accept is that the overflow would go to India/China/oversubscribed countries....I wonder if one of the core members would comment on this.....You do not need to name names....Just a request give a description of your interactions with law makers in this regard...That would put this issue to rest.....


theortically what longg says is correct.The system is not fair......but not many are listening to us at this point...So we have to find some way out of the situation.....


We need both alisa and longg as members because we need more to get traction in Washington.....the only common solution for these would be to get the numbers increased somehow....Otherwise EB3-EB3-India-China-ROW keep fighting each other...you would have nothing....

I guess My interview didn't go as expected.

1) I reached the office an hour early.
2) After waiting,they did security check and let us in
3) Then the lady who was assigned my case, came and took us into her room
4) Oath, etc
5) She then started asking for Birth cert, Marriage Cert, kids birth certi, 140 approval copy.
6) Then she pulled a file (which was labelled DOS Visa bulletins) and spent around 15 mins on Oct 2007 bulletin.
7) Then asked us who filed your 485..you did your self or your employer did..we said employer.
8) Then she said, something is not right..per Oct 2007 bulleting Visa's are unavailable so yours was not filed properly.
9) Then I said, ours was filed in Aug 8th 2007. She insisted the receipt date is oct 2007..then we showed her our 485 reciept.
10) Then she thanked us and started looking at Aug 2007 visa bulletin. and said, even then in Aug 2007 EB2 was U, so yours was not properly filed.
11) I told her, There was an interim Memo released by USCIS that they will accept application until Aug-17 2007 based on July 2007 visa bulletin
12) She said she will look at DOS bulletins
13) After 10 mins she said, she cant find any such memo..and said, since there is no evidence with her, she has to deny our case based on "Improper filing when PD was not current"
14) Then I said, if PD was not current, wouldn't TSC return the application denying on the spot? Why would they accept the application?
15) She said, you would think so..but they accept many times..so we are told to verify all the time
16) THen said, she believes us but for process, she needs evidence and said she will look into further and then make a judgment.

17) We had no choice and we were over the interview. we were little disappointed though

18) After coming home, I realized she took all I-94s and we got panicked..because if 485 is getting denied and I-94s are gone, how do we prove our legal status, so we thought of going back..then I thought, if have to go anyway, then I should take a print out of Interim Memo

19) I went back an hour later with the print out
20) I told security that, we had finished our interview and officer forgot to return our I-94..they insisted that we shud take infopass and they wont allow anyone to go back..I had to really argue with them (I decided I have nothing to loose..anyway 485 is screwed and so stood there asking them to let me in)

21) After consistent nagging, the security guy took our passports, interview response letter(After interview if your app doesn't get appproved they willgive a kind of reciept saying u attended the interview..blahblah) and went in

22) Came back and told me to go in since the officer wants more details from you (I thought this was a miracle)

23) I went inside, and after a while officer came back. We apologized and told her that we came back for I-94s..she said they will retain and wont return..We told her that we are not using EAD and we are still on H1B..she said she will give back..
then she asked, I am sure you didnt come back for I-94 alone, did you get any document?

24) We showed her the memo.

25) She read that and said I am glad you came back..this clears everything out..I will run this by my supervisor and will see if we can adjust status today

26) We waited for 2 hrs and then she took us inside.
27) Asked our passports (to stamp...really)

28) Then she looked into the computer to get the visa #.
29) The we noticed a changed in her face and then she quickly turned into a folder of current VISA bulletin..we said..oh..no..not again.
30) The officer said, per visa bulletin u r current and ur PD is dec 2005..there is no reason for system not to allocated a visa #..
31)She tried for 10-15 mins and finally gave up..said she cant stamp in the passport without allotting the visa number..said sorry..I cant do anything..I will follow up with DOS ppl and will let you know in a week or so.

32) The reason she gave is, when she tried to allot the visa, she got a message, "cut off date not established". I have no idea what this means.

hmmm....still keeping fingers crossed..this is nothing short of a car race.


:confused:

I am sorry to hear about your situation. Wish you good luck for GC, I hope you get it soon.
