Hello, I have a question I hope someone is able to answer :)
Suppose my priority dates gets current for a certain month and therefore I apply for adjustment of status (I-485) and a EAD card for my wife (I-765). If the next visa bulletin retrogresses my priority date and it is no longer current, does that also freeze the I-765 processing, or would my wife get the EAD even if my priority date is no longer current?
Thanks.
If you do not file for EAD along with the I-485 application, you can apply for EAD at any time after filing the I-485. I filed my I-485 during the July 2007 rush but did not file for EAD at that time as my H1 was valid till June 2008. I applied for my EAD only in March 2008 - when my dates were not current - and I got my EAD after 50 days.

Folks, can security check uncover unauthorized part time work whiles on H1. Will this be reported to USCIS? If so will that be a basis for denial for a green card? Any information or precedence?

I have recently filled the USCIS survey. But I am not satisfied with all the questions they have. I want to tell what we want to tell (not what they want to hear)
I have an idea to send USCIS director information about how they are doing ? (In terms of delays, consistency, customer service, implementation, transparency). This will not cost any dime to anybody and at the same time make an impact.
Step One:
One of us can first create a survey on survery monkey (detailed one..with complete description about various aspects of USCIS) . I have created a Draft of the questions which can go in the survey. You can add more (Please do not delete the existing ones).
The real survey can contain scale of measurement (1 to 10) and also descriptive comments. I can keep the draft open for 10 days before creating/publishing the real survey so that everybody can contribute to creating it. Here is the link to the draft (feel free to add more questions which are to the point and can make an impact)
USCIS Survey (Draft) - Google Docs (http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0ATAcM7NSTN8WZGQ0dmtjbW1fMTYxNTgyMjdwaGM&hl=en)
Step Two:
Open/Publish the survery to Immigration Voice users and all other customers of USCIS(Advertise this on the other websites too). We can keep it open for 10 days to get everybody's participation.
Step Three.
Get the results and and send the results to the USCIS director(These will contain ratings of where USCIS stands and suggestions for improvements). We can also send them to the President. This has to be a collaborative effort and will only cost .44 cents stamp(not .44 cents each but .44cents only)
I do not think they measure themselves at all (right now whatever they do is right).
I think this is nice gift to USCIS which they need desperatly. Also it could be an eye opener.
Any suggestions to this would be welcome.

Hi all,
I have a peculiar situation. I have applied for H1b and got approval notice. But when I went to apply for SSN for employment, the SSN employees could not find the new approved status in their system. Their system only shows my previous US entry status, H4.
They have accepted my application by marking it as SUSPECT in their system, meaning that they forwarded my application to USCIS for verification of my H1B approval status.
They said that it could take anywhere from 1 week to 4 weeks for verification. Does anyone run into this situation??
Please post your experiences.......
Last but not the least:
When I checked my H1B status on USCIS website it still shows that the application has been received and is still pending, eventhough I have the approval notice sent by them....
Do we need to do anything to let them know that the status hasnt been updated in their online system??
Thanks for the help.........

I could not understand what you mean by "NON-RIR labors were being processed first compared to the RIR ones. "
From AILA and immigration-law.com:
"AILA has reported that the BECs are still processing April 2001 traditional cases for the traditional case track and it is not expected to move ahead for sometime due to the huge number of 245(i) cases which were filed in April 2001."
I think we will not see a lot for Traditional Cases for a looong time.
My NON-RIR - PD - 04/2002 is also stuck in BEC.
Last i read was that the NON-RIR labors were being processed first compared to the RIR ones. So think twice before u take any decision.

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
The battle for comprehensive immigration reform is going to be tough as Senate Republicans play politics with the critical immigration issue. The Senate passed its $44.3 billion fiscal 2010 Homeland Security appropriations measure 84-6 last week after three days of debate that differentiated the bill from its House companion on a handful of border security and immigration policies. Unfortunately Senate Republicans used the opportunity to add significant new provisions to the less controversial �extender provisions� including an extension to the Special Immigrant Nonminister Religious Worker Program and the Conrad Waiver Program for Physicians Serving in Underserved Areas. The Senate also included a provision promoted by AILA member Brent Renison to allow the foreign-born widows, children and parents of citizens who have died to retain their legal status to seek citizenship for two years after the death. Senate Appropriations Bill a Mixed Bag of Immigration Provisions (http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=29510)
Senate Republicans added a provision to their chamber�s version of the bill (Schumer: Immigration bill to be ready by Labor Day (javascript:simplePopup()
Sen. Schumer the lead Democrat expects to have a bill ready by Labor Day that is more generous to highly skilled immigrant workers than those who are lower skilled and is tough on future waves of illegal immigration."
Even the Homeland Security Department spokesman Matthew Chandler said the Senate endorsement of Vitter's measure prevents real progress on immigration enforcement and is "a reflection of the old administration's strategy: all show, no substance."
In contrast, the Obama administration is trying to implement effective enforcement, he said. "We hope that the smarter strategy will prevail in the end, because the country deserves a system that works," Chandler said. http://www.reuters.com/article/politicsNews/idUSTRE5690F420090710 Reuters: U.S. Senate approves $42.9 billion homeland security bill.
Lets hope only hope the Senate and House conferees remove the fence building and E-Verify proposals that are obstacles to achieving a much needed reform of our immigration laws.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/186823568153827945-4551757837994116508?l=ailaleadership.blogspot.com

My Indian passport is going to expire very soon and my visa has also expired.
I have applied for extension for 3 years.
Will I face any problems in getting new passport from Indian Embassy?
Has anybody done that before?
I am sorry if this is not right place to write about it...
thanks

Your husband could have answered this question with his 8th year extension in progress. But here it is, once you start working for a company on H1 and they file ur GC starting with LC and if the process is pending for a year then u get automatic extensions going forward. With PERM the LC is getting approved more faster and you should have it within the year. As for H1 to wait until oct 2007 that will be for new H1's if u were already on a h1 before you can convert to one anytime not waiting until oct2007. :)

"To avoid backlogs, aliens who receive a green card under this program will be exempt from the overall numerical limitations on visas (i.e., 675,000 visas) and the country numerical limitations for Mexico, India, China and the Philippines"
so does it mean if ur an agri worker a visa will be available to u? and if ur a professional u have the same retrogression cap??????
what what I can make of this all un used numbers trickle down to theunskilled workers, so if the visa numbers are current for them with caps of 290,000. Indian and Chinese EB2 workers will still be retrogressed whilethese guys are current

My 485 (based on NIW) is pending. Based on the current bulletin, it could take years to approve my case. I currently work in the US using H1 visa. But I may need to travel outside the US for 1 year or even longer for business reason. Is there any way that I can not abadon my 485 pending status? Thanks!
You must change your AOS to CP. That way if your I485 is adjudicate while you are out of US, you could get the GC from the elected US consulate/embassy.

I am working for a consulting firm and my 6 year H1 is expiring on March 2012. My I-140 is approved as of Dec 2008(EB3) - pd Aug 2007. I-485 not filed yet due to PD not current.
I have a fulltime offer from my client which is a global bank and so i would like to move to them
My question is I don't have I-140 approval notice, but have the receipt notice and also can print out the status on the USCIS website. Also I have my Alien #
My current employer wont give the copy of approval.
1. With this Can I apply for I-140 based 3-year transfer?
2. Also, once I get 3 years approved and join the new employer, if the old employer revokes I-140 will I be in trouble?
have not filed 485 there is no use for you of approved 140 except you can use the PD. You will have to start GC processing again with new employer.(PERM-140-485).
You should get a 3 year ext based on old employers 140.

Hi Sir,
I have a question regarding H1B transfer and should I go premium processing or not?
Here is my case:
I was laid of from Company A (not consulting) last week. I have all my past pay stubs. That was total shock to me and got me off-guard.. It took me few days to find a consulting company B which is willing to transfer my H1B.
As any big company, A is quite prompt in sending revoke letter so I would assume they would be already doing it by now. Company B will be sending transfer papers tomorrow(Friday) or Monday.
My question is should I go with Premium Processing or not? I just dont want to take any risk where USCIS denies my case. Is premium processing going to help me here or not.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards.
Dont you think the PP will give you much faster results, peace of mind and you don’t have to wait anxiously for months...

Hi all,
I currently working in California and planning to move to Texas. Our company does not have a office in Texas .. so I will be working from home for the same company.
My I-140 is approved and 485 is pending for more than 180 days.
while AC-21 allows for changing employers with a different geographical location, is it OK to work for the same employer who does not have an office in a different geographical location?
Also, can we do H1B extension in this case? Any idea what my employer should show in this case if I work from home.
Thanks so much for your replies
