Have you ever participated any of the IV's campaign on various issues. Have you ever volunteered your time or donated money.
If no, you deserve this and rot in hell. There is no solution and you people are running to IV only when disastor strikes. But its too late.
If you cannot get the original contract nothing can be done...
poorslumdog: Please try to be polite.

Thanks guys... I believe my experiences are "progressive" (whatever that means) in a sense that during 5 years of work I progressed accordignly and to the level that the job description / ad for my position would require BS plus 5 years of experience.
What I don't get and was not quite sure about was the fact that 2 of those 5 years were during college. 5 years of experience is 5 years - I don't get why they would not like it. It is normal for people to work full time and go to college full time. When you get hired, if you have 5 years of full time experience, the prospective employer could not care less that 2 years of that were gained during last 2 years of college.
Dunno ... with USCIS and their rules ...
I asked my lawyer (duahhaaaa) and he said it's ok ... but I don't trust him.
M.
You should have 5 years experience after your Bachelor degree. Experience before degree will not be counted towards progressive experience. It happened in my case in Eb2 I140

You are 100% correct. They look for PD while accepting I-485 and then they see it only at the time of approval. There is no FIFO. It all depends on luck.
I think 485 processing is not dependent on PD being current. It is only the adjudication or final approval for which the PD needs to be current.
All 485 processing takes place based on it's receipt date and after it is complete the application is put on hold for approval untill the PD becomes current for that application.

From your case alone this is rather a sweeping judgment. I can assure you they do NOT process based on receipt date if they did my husbands EAD which was received on May 3rd would be approved by now and yours would not. He is still waiting thirteen weeks on.

Not True
All dual intention like H1b/H4 are treated differently. For those AOS applicants where they also have H1b/H4 status ( Not necessarily VISA stamped) ..they need to be here when filed and if they leave after filing then neither I-485 or I-131 will get cancelled.
After approval, you can mail them.
I have known 2 person whose spouses came without problem.
Now , If you are F1 or B1 pure non immigrant VISA and you leave without it being approved then you are in problem.

Quote from the article
Comprehensive immigration reform in Congress this year appears dead. Perhaps an incremental approach would be more politically viable. Lawmakers could first concentrate their efforts on correcting the glitches in the system that affect legal immigration, before turning to illegal immigration. After all, if the legal process was more efficient and less daunting, perhaps the illegal immigration problems wouldn't be quite so bad.
How many times and thru how many channels do the Congress/USCIS need to hear this message before they act on it??? :(

Does anyone know if the latest Frist amendment to the bill would still allow H1's etc to file for 218 as outlined above? I did some more reading and I am still confident the analysis above is an option for many H1's like myself.
Frankly I'd be happy to wait six years for a GC if it meant I could be out of this continual H1/LC/140/485 rat-race. Being able to be self employed would be a huge positive for me. I'm already on my second LC and I am involved in founding my second new company. For executives the H1/GC process is useless because you frequently get promoted or change titles, and by the time your LC is near processing it's likely that the original application is no longer supportable. Plus, if you own equity in the company that opens a whole can of worms that the USCIS will object to.
I don't care if 218D is supposed to be for 'illegal' immigrants. Hell, I'll learn Spanish! Via con dios! Obras son amores y no buenas razones!
Yes all of us can apply under 218 also but then I am not sure if I will want to wait another 6 years before applying for a green card. Also there is no set category under which these people will be able to apply for their green cards. So at that time, another bill will be needed to carve out a category for them and then they will have to be processed. So it could easily take another 4-5 years before you might get your GC. Also god only knows what kind of restrictions might be placed on the immigrants under this section and once you transfer under that category your existing GC processing will have to be canceled.

For all those who are having nightmares about G325A and sending GA325 or for completeness need not worry if visa was issued more than a year back based on this.... I found this from the link provided earlier in this thread(pdf) by ushkand
Establishing completeness of records may entail preparation of a request for
background check from an American consulate or embassy.
The G-325A Biographic Information form must be completed by all
applicants between the ages of 14 and 79. Clerically processing this form
initiates a record check abroad for the applicant. This request, however, is not
needed for all applicants. If the applicant entered the United States more than
a year ago, the G-325A will not be processed. This limitation is imposed
because the Department of State generally destroys the nonimmigrant visa
application when the date of issuance is one year old.The G-325A is generally submitted with four copies--a white (original),
green, pink, and blue copy. You will only need to use two legible copies,
usually the white (file) and the blue (consul) copy. The only exception to this
rule is when the I-485 is accompanied by an I-130. The applicant of the I-485
is required to submit a G-325A for the underlying I-130 petition. In this
instance, you would include the pink copy of the G-325A in the record of
proceeding of the I-130.
Further, be aware that if an I-130 petition is included in the A-file, the spouse
of the applicant of the I-485 is required to submit a G-325A for that riding
petition. The spouse’s G-325A should be included in the record of proceeding
and not processed according to these instructions. It is considered a
supporting document and will be reviewed at the time of adjudication.

1) I think you can file EAD /AP even if you dont have a AOS receipt. Can someone comment on this?
2) What all docs are required for filing EAD & AP?
1. My lawyer clearly said you can't, unless you file it together with AOS.
2. I765 and I131 forms. Everything else has already gone in with the AOS.

I am also having the same case... my PD is May 2006. I filed for I-485 in July 2007. Until today I haven't received the FP Notice.. Last yr I have received AP, EAD but no FP yet..
Someone on this website mentioned that EAD Renewal should trigger FP notice. In June 2008 I have applied for EAD Renewal.. Online status shows that EAD card is in production. But Still no FP notice.
I went to local office too.. They were of no help. They said that FP notice should initiate from USCIS Service Center.
Also I have done 2 SRs.. 1st one was done in Nov 07. Still Nobody is assigned to my case.
I dont know what to do now. my service center is TSC.

DOS and USCIS are slow. But it would be really helpful if the IV code team can provide some update on our site. I believe over 2.5 hours have passed since the last update regarding some update in 1 hour. I guess we can't do anything if it takes more time but an update always helps! Thank you.
given that u have just joined the group, let me say welcome aboard...
u made a wise decision to join this effort.. however regretfully I beg to defer , for you to be too quick to ask questions or updates and be more patient..
please aks yourself..what did u do for IV....what can u expect...
if u are a very active member and did contribute to IV, please accept my apologies

I'm with you, why is everyone so afraid?
God knows there would be enough people for a class action lawsuit against DOL.
My congressman called DOL and they said my case had been withdrawn: but it had been withdrawn b/c of THEIR errors, TWICE!
Both times it was reinstated and proved to be their error, and they are still using it as an excuse for not processing it yet.
And I thought "developed" countries worked differently than "developing" countries.
If IV has enough people interested I would certainly be interested to participate in a CA suit against DOL. I am losing hope that diplomacy will bring any results for us to be helpful.
USCIS only works faster when there have been mandamus suits filed against them, unfortunately no one seems to have done anything with DOL. Maybe it's time
For the lawsuit.
This isnt the first time people have thought that lawsuit against DOL is a good idea.
That is not true. Nothing will be gained from the lawsuit. There have been lawsuits against DOL before for exactly the ineffciency and slowness. Those lawsuits have failed. They will fail again. Being inefficient is not against the law. See the IV document on DOL- backlogs here :
http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=67&Itemid=50
Also, read about the lawsuit Liberty Fund v. Chao and judge's opinion on that lawsuit.
And BTW, earlier this year, there were few people on immigration portal collecting money for lawsuit against DOL. I dont know how far it went.

H1 stamping on passport doesnt matter. copy of H1 approval + I94 and employment letter will be fine.
>> Will there be any problem in visa approval for parents
this is million $$ q :) .. it depends on several factors,including the mood of the officer, other than documents.
But one of the most important thing i learned(my parents got rejected even with plenty of valid docs) is that, how the parents 'express' their indent to return is very very important.
it is like the job interviews here, there will be one or 2 questions.. You got to tell all that would sell you, regardless the scope of the Q..
Same for this interview.. For eg, they have 2cr worth investments and 5 laks pension and old parents leaving with them and a son/daughter to get married and so and so things to take care backhome... think of every possible thing that require them to be in india. any documents to support these claims may come handy.. but not to worry if not available.
nothing to worry, but preparing for this will defenitly help.. wish all the best for them to get visa.

When I put in my application for a 7th year extension based on the fact that my labor was pending for more than a year, I did get a 3 year extension. My company lawyer applied again requesting a one year extension and I recently got it approved.
I believe the assumption from his side was that even though the labor was approved for 3 year it is upto us to get it corrected. Hope this helps. But I believe this would be a good question for one of those conference calls.

According to the following document from USCIS they issued receipts for approx 150K applications for AOS in sept. So my estimate of the total back log is
June filers 75k
July - 25k
August 200k
Sept 150k
Oct 50K
Total = 500k
http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/APPLICATIONS%20FOR%20IMMIGRATION%20BENEFITS_Septem ber07.pdf
If you look at the previous "Applications for Immigration benefits" update issued by USCIS, here are the numbers.
Month No of I-485 receipted
April 2007 59,266
May 2007 68,265
June 2007 69,098
July 2007 68,498
Aug2007 116,177
September 2007 157,062
These are based on notice/receipt generated dates. ( if an application is submitted on July 2nd but has a notice date of Aug10th, it would be considered as August receipted application and would not count towards July)
If they are based on receipt dates, then Sep 2007 would not have 157K! Since the free ride ended on Aug 17th!
We need to know the applications receipted in Oct 2007 to get the full picture of the July VISAGATE!
