Guys,
I just wanted to share some good news. I had two approved LCs. One with PD EB3 ROW March 05 and the other with ROW EB3 March 06. I had already filed the I-140 for the March 06 but not for the March 05 one. That was because of the way the job requirement was worded in that LC. The attorney was not sure if it would be approved. Anyway since the earlier PD became current in June I decided to take a chance and file I-140 for that earlier PD LC with PP. And what do you know, it got approved today and that allowes me to file for AOS this month. It was a bit of a gamble with money but it worked!!! :cool:

Hi guys,
Some of may think "Wait for the actual letter to come" but I feel too nervous and just want to share my thoughts. I applied for EB5 and my I526 was approved. Then I applied adjustment of status and got an I485 RFE. Have not got the letter yet but got the email that my case is on hold right now. Can you tell me about the RFE? Is that common? Is that the first step of denial? I'm so nervous right now. I will write what they are asking when I got the letter which I'm expecting on Tuesday or Wednesday. Thank you very much.
These days people are figiting wrong ful denials through MTRs. RFEs are common and one does not have to worry about RFE. Just wait for your letter and respond accordingly. There is no "first step" for denial - if your case is approvable it gets approved - if not it gets denied - period.

This is exactly the problem. There are a lot of house straight head Republican's who won't give up their anti-immigration position. Because of their existence, anything on this issue that wants to pass need Democrats vote.
The House operates very differently from the Senate. If Republicans in the House are behind a bill the Democrats in that chamber are powerless to block it.

Hi,
My friend got his H1 last year for 2007-2008 and came to US in DEC 2007, he works for IT company. However, since he has arrived he has not been placed on a project and so no pay stub has been generated. He has been on bench for 6 months.(technically without a job but has H1)
Is he out of status?
Can he show that he is on vacation till he gets a project?
Is there any other way?
Pls help.
Thanks!
Yes. He is out of status and I dont believe you can show six months as vocation. You need give the reason and proof for the long period of vocation. His employer must pay him the salary even if he is not in porject. Otherwise its illegal

Congress.org - News : Why Bill Gates cares about immigration (http://www.congress.org/news/2010/05/24/why_bill_gates_cares_about_immigration)
Why Bill Gates cares about immigration
Foreign workers have a stake in fight to change laws.
Activists on both sides of the immigration debate tend to focus on the millions of illegal immigrants whose fate rests on whether Congress passed a law.
But foreigners here legally also have a stake in this fight.
The U.S. issues temporary worker visas, called H-1B after their official classification, to thousands of non-residents each year. Often, they hold college degrees and have technical skills.
Microsoft and other technology companies hire many workers this way. They often have to prove they can't hire skilled U.S. citizens to fill those jobs first.
Bill Gates wrote in the Washington Post several years back that there is an employment gap that H-1B visas help fill:
This issue has reached a crisis point. Computer science employment is growing by nearly 100,000 jobs annually. But at the same time studies show that there is a dramatic decline in the number of students graduating with computer science degrees.
The United States provides 65,000 temporary H-1B visas each year to make up this shortfall -- not nearly enough to fill open technical positions.
H-1B workers, who have united under grassroots groups like Immigration Voice , want more than just an increase in visas. They want the government to streamline the rules.
Currently, the workers have to apply for green cards through their employers, often a lengthy and cumbersome process. They can't switch jobs easily and sometimes have to reapply for a visa even if they move jobs within the same company. They have to leave the country every few years before they can reapply for a visa.
The workers can also apply for a spouse to come to the U.S., but their partners are not allowed to work under the H-4 status granted to them. The activists argue that those individuals represent a skilled base of workers who could contribute to the U.S. economy and help pay for household expenses.
Powerful corporations back the H-1 B workers in their demands, since it would make it easier for them to hire skilled workers. But groups like Numbers USA argue that those companies shouldn't hire non-residents at a time when many Americans are jobless.

Friends,
A unique situation -
I am getting ready to apply for my wife's AOS (ROW). She has never used a last name on any legal documents, example birth certificate, passport.
Her H4 visa was processed with "FNU" - family name unknown .. Do I need a last name for filing her I-485? Can she get a GC with only her first name on it?
Or will they process it with FNU as last name...
Should i go to her embassy (Indonesia) and get her passport changed to my last name before applying for her 485? In that event, her H4 visa,passport and birth certificate will not match her passport..
Any thoughts on my situation?
I guess, nobody really knows the answer. If she does not have a last name and all she uses is her first name, it should be alright. Since all her legal documents- Birth certificate, Passport, DL, Bank Statements have this legal first name only. If she now wants to use your family, last name after getting married, that could also be done. You should really consult your lawyer on this one. Please do not use any advice from this forum as legal or valid.

I know this is irrelevant in a way but see it from a different angle for one moment. There is no other forum where you can get any information about these H1 employers who are playing games using retrogression. This is the only forum where most of the people on H1 are related to some desi consulting company and can share their experiences which would help other people who are in huge pain due to the unfair practices of their existing employers.
I would recommend the administrators to create a separate area on this forum where people can share these experiences and find genuine employers.
Not in this forum I would argue. There are other places.

Hello Folks:
This long wait for Green Card has made me think about a number of things...
A few days back a couple of my friends have recieved notices from USCIS are sending notices 'Intent to Deny their I-485' w/o any rhyme or reason. Employer says they have not withdrawn their I-140. They said they will appeal but if nothing happens they will go back to India.
Just worried...if this happens to me and I am forced to go out of the country in 30 days, what happens to my US loans. I do not think I would be able to repay back my home & car loans with an Indian salary if I return. In this market I can only sell at a huge loss. I also used US Line of credit for education purposes. Do I need to file bankruptcy? I am on a EAD right now...
Any thoughts on this... greatly appreciate ....it

I got approved email within 2 weeks but still waiting for the actual forms.. Just write Expedite on the top of the cover. Again, it depends on the Immigration officer.
Dear Friends:
(1) Is there a certain number of years for which an advanced parole given by the USCIS? Or, does it depend on what the applicant is writing, for ex, "I am planning a trip to XXX in between July 1, 2009 through 30 December 2010," and the parole is given on that many years of request?
(2) Also, once an advanced parole expires, should the applicant re-apply it continuosly until he/she receives his/her green card? In case of renewal, should the applicant apply for renewal before a certain number of months before the AP expires.
Thanks for answering, friends. This process is so confusing.

during the period from July 2009 to November 2009, your extension was pending and not rejected/denied by USCIS and also your sponsoring employer did not revoke the application. so, logically it should be authorized employment. you can work with the receipt itself, if nothing is decided about the application.
but, better talk to ur lawyer. since there is gray area for ignorant IO @ POE to misinterpret, better have your lawyer available on call during the time of your entry to explain to IO.

Everyone knows they are behind in their receipting at this time. They have channeled all resources at this time to the 485 petitions.
So much so that they suspended PPS for 140s, they don't want new 485s, even EAD/AP applications are being unduely delayed. Beyond their service commitment times with no reasons.
I think they expect to get back to normal receipting by the dates given.
