Thanks. I do have my EAD. Just fearful that since I wont be at the 6 month period, I wont get to portability.
Does US immigration check up on this stuff? If so, how? I'm thinking that the Texas processing center (where my info is being processed) is too busy working on my papers (and other folks' papers) rather than inquiring about everyone's employment status.
Is this wishful thinking?

Time taken for the calls; a few minutes
Cost to make these calls; a few cents
The feeling afterwards................PRICELESS!! :)
That's the beauty of working together. Individual efforts and contributions are small but adds up.
Participate. Also there is a funding drive. Contribute what you feel comfortable.

Here is my list. #1 is unprobable till 2009, so may be we can work on 2, 3, 4
1. Need a legislation change (to increase visa numbers).
2. If the above is not possible, recapture unused visa numbers.
3. If 1 & 2 not possible, exempt spouse and children from visa number counts.
4. If 1, 2 & 3 not possible, then atleast get them to disclose country wise backlog data, so that there is no "cheating" in visa bulletins
I know everyone wants to get out of this state called as "PROBATIONARY LIMBO". The real solution is to eradicate retrogression and at the earliest. For this to happen, we need some legislation in our favor.

See if you can post a flyer in the Ann Arbor Indian foods store (Foods of India) near the medical capus. The one in Canton (forgot the name-- the one where they sell bhel) is also a hot spot for folks working around Ann-Arbor/Detroit areas. There is one more Indian store on Packard further up north (in Ann Arbor) Owner is a VERY FRIENDLY guy and very well connected (his connections helped in selling my car, find a subletter...!). He's alway open to flyers and such.
I have spread the word to some I know in MI, hopefully they'll respond. Good luck!

I have some questions:
I have EAD and AP, but i never used it. Still working on H1.
My wife used EAD but never went outside US..so never used AP.
1) In EAD form, for Q.15 Current Immigration Status for me and my wife?
2) In AP form, for "Class of Admission", what should I write for me and my wife?
Thanks
Q15: For you = H1B For Wife = AOS Pending
#2 Assuming you entered on H1 and wife on H4 (no Student/visitior etc)
You =H1B Wife =H4

I did not find this invalid. But the NSC update from last year also doenst say as how long it was valid. We really need to talk to an attorney.
As for me, I am going to file my I 485 by July 31st if I dont receive the reciept notice from USCIS. We can just show other proofs that it was more than 15 days that we filed our I 140.
In this case we dont know till when the update is valid. so it can't b said that it is invalid also.
so I am planning to wait till Aug 10 to get the receipt notice, otherwise i ll fle myself with the fedex tracking number and the letter from USCIS about the labor approval.

I have had good experience with Wayne Chapple Law Firm in Hartford CT. I am dealing with Attorney Taras, and he has been extremely prompt and has responded to all my queries/ update request in a very timely fashion, despite the fact that my employer paid for all the processes. They have handled my case from H1 to GC...I would definitely recommend him!

I got this message from senator Mark R Warner
Thank you for contacting me regarding our nation's immigration system. I appreciate the benefit of your views on this important issue.
Our current immigration system is broken, which is why I believe Congress should work to pass bipartisan, comprehensive immigration reform. Comprehensive immigration reform should include policies to secure our nation's borders, curb future illegal immigration, establish an effective employer verification system and find a practical solution for the millions of illegal immigrants currently residing in the U.S.
I do not believe that illegal immigrants should gain an unfair advantage from their actions. Any effort to earn legal status must include paying back taxes, a fine or penalty and taking steps to learn English. Reform should also not penalize those individuals who have followed the law and are here legally.
On April 23, 2010, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed into law Arizona State Bill 1070, which grants broad powers to local law enforcement officials to determine and request proof of legal status of anyone suspected of violating federal immigration laws. The enactment of this new law is yet another sign that the federal government needs to act to fix our broken immigration system rather than allowing for a state-by-state patchwork of laws and ordinances. I also believe Arizona's law raises civil rights concerns, fails to recognize the economic contributions of legal immigrant workers, and harms our nation's ability to attract entrepreneurs from around the world who create jobs here in the United States.
Our nation faces many tough challenges. Immigration reform is a complicated and difficult issue but the current system is not working. We must put our differences aside to create a better system. Again, thank you for writing. As we move forward in the 111th Congress, please continue to contact me with your opinions and concerns.
Sincerely,
MARK R. WARNER
United States Senator

He is hell bent on signing a CIR bill no matter what and Kennedy and durbin know that this there best chance to give amnesty to illegals and screew us Legals EB so this bill is going to be introduced and will pass for sure

dont be confused with "legal immigration", legal immigration in obama's world means family based immigration (vote bank politics) not EB immigration.
You are absolutely right. Check the following link on Obama's page concerning his stand on immigration.
http://www.barackobama.com/issues/immigration/
If he implements what he has been saying so far, this is what will happen:
- Strong measures to curb illegal immigration (with/without a fence)
- Amnesty to existing illegals in the country - claiming that the leak (above) has been fixed and that the illegals already in the country should be brought out from the shadows.
- Measures to speed up family based immigration - with papers being processed by the same department that works on EB immigration; slowing down EB processing further.
The only silver lining which people seem to hang on to is a politician's response to the state of highly skilled immigrants. Note that almost no one is against US educated legals from getting GCs and this is what Obama and McCain have been questioned about as far as legal immigration goes - obviously their answer is that they support us. That is a no-brainer. The controversy as far as legal immigration goes has to do with people without a US higher degree and no one really talks about that as far as legal immigration goes. But that doesn't mean the STEM bill will pass - no opposition doesn't mean it will translate to action for a group who has negligible voting power even if we eventually get it.

I am amazed in the solidarity just by seeing the responses. But if i think deeper, this rally is not for some national cause or for some greater benefit.
Every single person here is doing this for one's own SELFISH reasons. Why then are we talking like we are marching to save the planet or save the poor animals going to slaughter or human trafficking or AIDS prevention or even the war in Iraq.
Yes, we make things easy for people down the road (however that is not our true intention, our true intention is just about how to get the card faster) but trying to pull in more people to the rally by playing on people's guilt is not the approach. You say it like you see it. We want people to come so I CAN GET MY GREEN CARD SOONER. Thats all. So everyone has the same motive...thats all. Nothing more or nothing less. Everyone is going for A SELFISH INTEREST...nothing based on higher principles of duty, sacrifice or to ensure higher morals of life. Everything is for sensual enjoyment.
Dont write like we are seeking independence or freedom.
I guess...my head will start to roll...sorry for looking at things differently, I dont mean to find fault but i think this is just one big rally everyone wants to get their green card sooner. Nothing more than that...in my opinion..really not even about folks who may apply in 2010?

never worked for "employer x" after H1 transfer, perhaps you are out of status. What is your lawyer saying? You never transferred H1 back to emplyer#2?
I have maintained valid status with my current employer (Employer #2). Employer #2 sponsored H1B was valid until 2008, then I used EAD. I have always maintained valid status. My only concern is I never worked for 'Employer X'.
Would you still see this as an issue...?
Thanks for the response.

Totally agree with you. I know guys who worked in production support and QA applied in EB2. At the same time people like me in positions such as Architect went with the ill-fated EB3. It is sad, but is the truth.
Dear Architect:
Get your "Bu__" moving and try getting another job which will qualify you for an Eb2. Stop whining like a Public sector employee and get out of your comfort zone. Go achieve something.

I think this an interesting discussion in the forum in a long long time. Allow me to jump in.
1. For those with labor stuck in BEC's, file PERM (2 months) +I-140 Premium Processing (10 days). Get a three years extension and move on to a new job. A new job always involve new challenges and learning is an excellent way to channel your energies. Point being there is a way out of the mess !!!
For others invoke AC-21 in I-485 stages.
2. Studying is another very good idea. What you study should be your personal decision. Doing MBA, or Acquiring new technical skill at local Universtiy or certifications (CCNA/CCIE/PMP). There are always things to learn and a good way to advance your career without GC.
3. For non-working spouses there is very little they can do, but Non-Profits is way to start and see if you can get an H1B later from the same or a new employer.
In nutshell you can cope up with this frustration by taking control of things that you can !!! Do not let this mess affect you more that what it should be.
For the rest let's help IV in any way we can. Have a good weekend.

You should show some decency in replying to posts. Otherwise it reflects where you come from. - I come from a down to earth broad minded background where "we" together help and try to make lives better, .. but I am skeptical about you and your background because thats a selfish, mean and free loader character.
By donating few dollars, you are not entitled to write anything on any forum. If you think that a thread is not for you, you should not post there.- Atleast I donated something , and I never brought up the point of donation, you were the one who came at me first saying, "Sell you plane and donate IV" It seems you have a problem with the people with the tag "Donor" and that is for the reason that your self conscious is making you feel ashamed of being a free loader.
If you are a proud donor, good for you. :)
But why dont you start a local chapter and do some field work instead of just writing a check and claiming yourself to be a superior guy to others.
Don't even dare tell me what should I do and what not, I do what I can.Don't you think even once before writing you moron, what have you done that you can advice me????
Nothing.. I wanted to write a lot, but you know what , you don't worth, loser.
Just get lost....................I just don't believe that this kind of idiot species still exist in this world.

I know IV is doing its best and there are other groups fighting for HR 5882.
But honestly, what are the chances for this bill to succeed this year (before election)?
100% or 75% or 50% or 25% or 0%
Ron Gotcher predicts that none of the individual bills may pass this year.
And also that EB3 I may not move forward even next year!
I am not sure how many EB3 (I) volunteers are there in IV (who are really focussed). Are they getting nothing? The prediction is that EB3 I may go back to Nov 2001 and stay there for a while (or may be for the rest of next year).
Is the efforts of EB3 (I) volunteers being exploited (indirectly, ofcourse)? What are they fighting for?
First of all, I can commiserate with you and understand how important any news about the expected PD movement is. However I am sure you will also agree if nothings changes, the agonizing wait will keep getting longer. Now what needs to change and what the success percentage is at least partially up to us.
By believing that no matter what, EB3 is destined to have a long wait you might be not taking advantage of the possibility that there is some chance (no ones know how much) that things might get better. So lets just put our combined optimistic efforts into this initiative because that is a prerequisite for any change..now or later.
All the best and hang in there pal!

I had an august 2004 labor that USCIS erroneously predatd on my 2006 August I-140. A couple of years ago when 2004 Aug was current, I followed up and was then told that I should never have been given the 2004 date as no I-140 was filed for it..and told, So, sorry about it...but please keep waiting for the priority date.
a USCIS mistake that they corrected after 2 years ....lots of frustration for me....

...Ahimsa, I hope you understand this is a platoonic conversation between us...
If you mean "platonic", yes ours is no doubt a friendly conversation.
I agree CIR will be modified but our EB reliefs (for existing EB applicants) are not controversial (ilegal immigration reliefs and H-1B increase are the most controversial), right?
I hope there would be some form of CIR with EB reliefs that both Dems and President would agree on.
Thanks
