Please take the above poll.
In my case, company is paying for me alone. I have to pay attorney fee and filing fee for my wife.
Depends on the employed company's policy and the agreement given to you initially with this regards. My company policy is they will cover all expenses/fees related to Green Card, except for I-131 for employee. This has to be taken care by employee themselves. For dependents they will NOT cover any expenses/fees and we have to pay, but they will do the paper work and will file for you. We have to just pay the appropriate fees. Also we do not have external law firm doing the paper work, the company has its own legal department with immigration attorney's who does the paper work.

I saw a thread somewhere that instructs how to call IO. This is my first call to any Immigration Office.
I had replied to RFE two weeks back and did not get any updates online.
That is why I called.
The officer told me my application is with the officer. I have no idea what that means. He asked me my receipt number and I gave him the WAC#.
Let me know if you have questions.
Thanks

Any feedback on this is appreciated.
The basis for your AOS is approved EB3 I-140. So I do not see a problem porting to another company. That I-140 will remain valid. If you get approval for EB2 I-140, it won't change your eligibility for AOS. I am not sure if you will be able to port priority date. If you worry too much, you can ask employer to withdraw EB2 I-140 application. My hunch is that EB3 with 2001 PD will get approved earlier than EB2.

Hi Ari,
Thank you for the reply.
As I came to know L1 is denied due to skill set I have is not enough, which I do not agree and I can appeal for the same.
Will you advise me to reopen the case? And if I am reopening the case am I eligible to stay here in US till the case is finalized even if my I-94 expires?
Can I also file for H1 at the same time?
Thank You
Anil

My I-485 got approved on Aug 7th 2008 from NSC. As far as i know my name check was pending during approval time.
How do you know that your 485 was approved even if NC was pending? Does your GC - physical card or the approval notice/emails - indicate that your approval is contingent on NC?

As per this post http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17450
EB-1 ROW is under-subscribed, I wonder if this is a sign that top talent is getting harder to recruit from overseas.
If that is the case, we can all think of a few reasons why that might be.
I don't have the stats right in front of me, but it is my impression that except for a few odd years (FY06 comes to mind), EB-1 did not max out its numbers. Using EB-1 for L-1 executives is a relatively new idea.

Hi Everyone,
I learnt recently that my parents have started showing early signs of Alzheimers. They have a 10 year multiple visa. For now I have them staying with me and their 1-94 date is coming up next month.
I wanted to know what options do i have and what would be the repurcursions.
1. extend thier stay. if so, whats the process.
2. let them fly back to India. stay for month and revisit for anothe 6 months. any catch or restriction on this.
Its just that they have no one in india to take care of them and people are cheating on them due to thier medical condition.
Your opinions and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Cut and paste for me by my attorney:
Some Observations from DOS on India EB-2 Unavailability
Cite as "AILA InfoNet Doc. No. 08011461 (posted Jan. 14, 2008)"
On January 10, 2007, AILA Liaison contacted Charlie Oppenheim, Chief of Immigrant Visa Control and Reporting at the State Department, to speak about the announcement of India EB-2 visa unavailability in the February 2008 Visa Bulletin. By early November, indications were that USCIS demand for India EB-2 visa numbers would place significant pressure on the overall annual limitation, leading to the decision to roll back the priority date for India EB-2 for December 2007 to 01JAN02, and for January 2008 to 01JAN00. Even with those significant retrogressions, USCIS requested almost 300 India EB-2 for December. (As an indication of the rate of demand and how close to the quarterly and annual limits usage is, the USCIS requested three India EB-2 numbers for January, all with dates prior to 01 JAN 00.) There is some possibility that India EB-2 could again become available if it appears that the demand for India EB-1 will not exceed the annual limit, but, that determination will not be able to be made until the second half of the fiscal year.
For China-mainland born EB-2, if demand remains as has been seen over the last couple of months, it is expected that the 01 JAN 03 cut-off date will hold, and it is likely that all numbers will be used within the current cut-off date.

Guys,
Would it be of benefit, if USCIS sends us a notice when our petition is "Pre-adjudicated; awaiting visa number"? So, we can at least be in peace and go on with our life?
Also, I see there is a suggestion to NOT count Dependants in the VISA numbers, since they are not counted for other visa (H1) status. Its a very good suggestion. We just have to be ready with the counter-argument, if we are told, H1 Dependant is H4 and not eligible to work. However, once GC is approved, that spouse gets equivalent benefits and hence its counted.

Hi all
Thanks for your suggestions.
First thing ,i should get visa dates then get my flight booked accordingly.I know both things are difficult to get synchronized thats why i am trying to gather all details ahead.
Lockers is a great idea ,i dinnt know about it.
Because of all the distances from delhi to native places and time shortage i have to do this.
So taking taxi from Delhi , i am pretty scared as i heard bad experiences. My couple friend got their certificates stripped of in delhi while they were going for visa.

As valid an argument it may be, buying a house as a bargaining tactic will create a lot of bad publicity and would be counter-productive. I think if we want to do gandhigiri, lets send flowers to Senator Grassley. If you want to make an impact, do the unusual.
Imagine how media will report something like that. Even when Grassley is dead against EB people, those very same people are sending flowers to him, not asking for anything, not demanding anything, just respectfully reminding him that not all immigrants are bad, some are really instrumental to making this country great.
We should write a simple, short, positive, and respectful message without sarcasm and without asking for anything. Instead of saying how we can be helpful *if* we have a green card, lets just focus on how we are already a positive contribution to American economy and national interest despite the clouds of uncertainty. Some things are better left unsaid to get the message across. Instead of us saying it, let the media report it - imagine how much more their contribution could be if they had green card.
Here are some suggestions for short messages -
I am a physician with NIW working in town/area which is medically under served. I am not taking away any American jobs.
I am foreign but not cheap. I earn xxx. My income is x% above average wage in my profession; x% above the higher end of prevailing wage standards set by DOL. In addition, my employer is paying 10-20K in immigration costs, some of which goes to train more Americans in STEM.
I am doing research in some field of humanitarian or national interest. e.g. bio medicine, green technologies, etc.

Hi desimass77. How do you convince the school that you are qualified?
My wife has a similar situation. We tried to convince school that we are qualified under "parolee" category. However, my wife's I-94 expires (she entered US using AP last June). Her school uses this reason to reject again. Now, we decide to re-enter US again to get a fresh I-94.
Her school officials say that they are going to query USCIS database once my wife gets a new I94 stamp. It is something called G-845 form.
Just curious, did you school query USCIS database on your case? Or your school just think yo are qualified?
I think the "parolee" category is really ambiguous, since it requires student to enter US with parole for at least one year. On the other hand, it wants I-94 unexpired. AP can hardly fit into this category, as if we entered US, the valid length is usually less than 1 year, unless we re-enter US on the exact same date when the AP was issued.
Please, if anybody successfully convinced school on FAFSA, please share your experience here!

Gurus,
Please shed me some light on this.
I am an early 2005 PD, eb3 ROW, PERM and I-140 approved GC candidate who has been in the US for 5 years. This eb3 retro has convinced me that I should explore my options in Canada and plan to migrate north within a 6 month time frame.
Since I already have an approved I-140, my question is whether the document will be alive if I do decide to come down again after 3-4 years when retro is no more.
....or is my I-140 a sure dead and not even worth bothering? Would appreciate your thoughts.
Cheers,:o

One of the thing, my lawyer is recommending is to initiate porting to EB-2 which I understand may take anywhere around 18 mnths if all goes well...

Hi nat23,
Thank you very much for your reply.
Currently i am not enrolled into any company benefits like Health Insurnace etc as i have those benefits from my spose company.
This company said that they are paying thier attorney firm 5200$ for H1b and i am not paying anything.
For this 5 months, i will be H4 and will not get paied by this company.
Question is:
1. Can the company now apply and pay for H1b for Oct 1st start date and then later can they tell me not to hire me anymore?
2. Can mutiple employers file for h1B with same start date of Oct 1st?
If yes, then i would start looking for other jobs as my backup H1b jobs.
Please advise. Much appreciated - thanks

Don't worry about it. Infact I had 3 different numbers..one for EAD on F1, 140 and 485.
The 485 and EAD (GC based) had the same number. When ever I had to apply for AP or EAD (did only once as I always had H1), I used the one on 485 receipt as this is what I have on my GC.
I was under the impression that I will have only one A#... apparently I was wrong :)..many people said go take an infopass, get it consolidated etc.. I think this will mess up things than clearing it going by their efficiency.
Forget about the one on 140....always use what they gave you on 485 receipt... leave the consolidation part to them.
