Yes , the employer is Desi. who else can do something like this ? :mad:
After 6 months, can't we simple change employer on H1B and fire the previous attorney and ask him to send all the documents to the new attorney?
Can USCIS send a duplicate receipt notice to our home address on our request?
sent you a PM..check it out..

I have been through this situation and now work for consulting company. Actually I got layed off without notice in 6th year of my h1b with Labor pending in backlog. I had no resources, tools and no one gave me any consultations, everyone told me "go find another job". In 20 days I found myself a 6 month contract assignment and had a consulting company transfer my h1b and they also applied for my 7th year extension based on pending labor from my layed off company. I went for stamping at Chennai and was through, applied for GC through EB2 PERM and got my 140 approved also and now I just got used to consulting and this is my 3rd contract position with the same company and I earn 50% more than what I was earning 5 years on my fulltime job. Now that I got used to consulting, I would want to think twice if I have to get a fulltime job offer on h1b. Everything is so customozable in a good consulting company , like moving charges, allowances, expenses, traavel expenses, can be worked out in good faith.
In general, there is an unofficial grace period of atleast a month, stretchable to 2 months based on case to case and worst comes, if a job hunt exceeds 2 months, then your new job, they may give you a h1b approval but you have to get it stamped immediately as they wont attach an i 94 with it, I have seen this happen to people.
In your case, as you already have an approved 140, you have to smartly get copies of all your documents and look for a genuine consulting company, get letterheads and keep contacts with some good friends and have them give you an experience letter and move on. You can get 3 years transfer and also retain your PD. If you qualify for eb2 in new company, then you can port eb3 PD while you take advantage of eb2 movement.
Good luck

The processing date for I -485 EB at nebraska is July 30 2007.
And it happens that my I-485 'Receipt date' is July 30 2007 too ! My notice date is 'Aug 31 2007'
So my question is should my case be logically eligible for processing at nebraska center now that we are in March and my PD is current for March. Or do the processing times at service centers represent notice date and not receipt date (I noticed that in my online case status it states "On August 31, 2007, we received this I485 APPLICATION "....which seems logical since the notice date represents the date when info is entered into computers )
As I mentioned earlier in this thread my I-140 is also already approved.
Is there a number I can call to check with USCIS customer service whether they opened my case for adjudicating it. The only immediate blocker I see now is whether or not I am past the 180 days FBI namecheck as well . Hopefully the USCIS cust rep can tell me that info over the phone. Any body got such info over the phone?

I do not want to spoil the party fun but somewhere in my mind there is a lingering doubt. I read Ron Gotcher's post about August 2008 bulletin.
http://immigration-information.com/forums/showthread.php?p=20233#post20233
He says that Eb2 India will retrogress to 2003 or 2004.
This is my opinion. TSC 485 processing time is July 17,2007. NSC 485 processing cut off date is July 28th, 2007. I don't know if CSC is still processing 485 EB applications but CSC EB processing cut off date on its website is April 04, 2006. The priority date for June 2007 bulletin was April 1st2004.
Lot of big law firms filed 485's around August 1st because the date for filing 485's was extended to August 17th. So I think these 485's are still unadjudicated. Once they get adjudicated there would be retrogression. Analysts analyze. However the silver lining would be removal of concurrent processing of I-140 and I-485 which may give some additional EB 2 numbers next year.

Pappu,
Do I need to post my question on this thread or I can pass it on before in time to StarSun or you? B'cause posting my GC issue with personal information would not look appropriate on a public forum.
Let me know.

Guys,
I live in NJ and I had sent my EAD renewal package to the following address via USPS certified mail:
USCIS
Texas Service Center
P.O. Box 851041
Mesquite, TX 75185-1041
When I tracked my receipt today (for both mine and my wife's package), I got the following status:
Status: Notice Left
We attempted to deliver your item at 1:47 PM on May 9, 2008 in MESQUITE, TX 75185 and a notice was left. It can be redelivered or picked up at the Post Office. If the item is unclaimed, it will be returned to the sender. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.
Can any one tell me if I have used incorrect mailing address or is this status normal? Do I need to do anything about it?
Thanks a bunch. Your replies will be appreciated.

I found a very detailed discussion thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5890) about good/bad experiences with different immigration lawywers. This was back in July Last Year when most ppl were filling for 485.
Now many of them are invoking AC21, can some one share experience with AC21 attorney representation?
I know we do not need an attorney for AC21, but I am inclined to go with one just for the peace of mind.
After carefully reading thru' every post on above thread, calling some friends and my own online research, I am thinking of either Rajiv Khanna or Ron Gotcher. I have a close friend who is with Rajiv Khanna for a long time and has good words for him. But I personally do not know anyone who is currently a client with Gotcher Law firm. If there is anyone who has specific experience or recommandation with Gotcher Law Firm or any other, please share.
On a side note, my current company's corporate attorney is very rude, not-apporachable and very costly. Never replied to emails or phone calls. Also by contract, I can not have him represent my case, once I resign from my current position.

It's just a caution. Some people would like to take it slowly but surely, some people love to run fast with a risk of stumbling in the middle. Whichever you go, the finish line is always the same.
All I am saying is if you wish the fast route with the risk of stumbling, then go for it. If not, try the slow but sure route.
no slow, no fast..just follow the rules of the game..

Few years ago, USCIS did approved EB2 with 3 year degrees.
But now they are very strict. They are refering into EDGE (Electronic Database for Global Education) database, created by American Association of Collegiate Registars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO) which didn't equate 3 year Indian degree with US equivalent bachelors.
Check thier website www.aacrao.org
There might be very few cases 3 years degree approved in EB2 category. Try in EB3.
If you don't care about money try one application in EB3 then try to port it to EB2.

Background: Current AP expires on Oct 24 2010. I don't have the new AP yet, but I should have it soon, and I expect it to be valid from Oct 25 2010 - Oct 25 2011.
Question: Am I allowed to leave the US on Oct 20 2010 (during the validity of the old/current AP) and return on Oct 30 2010 (during the validity of the new AP) if I carry both APs with me?
Thanks!

Thank you thomachan72.
Sure I will. I have no application pending.
Friend, with all due respect; what the members requested was to post some information about yourself. are you a immigrant? do you have any application pending / approved etc.
This helps us identify with you as a group.
Thanks for bringing this visa abuse issue to our attention. Just as in any other trade, surely there are many abusers, however, this economy fueled itself to the top of the world in a lot of things using talents from around the world and that was mainly via the temporary work visas including H1b. Now you might meet 1 person in say 100000 who falls into the catagory you mentioned and none of us entertain such people with any respect.

I am on H-1B and wife on H-4. We did not get our stimulus payment last year since she does not have SSN.
For people who did not receive stimulus payment last year can claim it this year. So for people like me whose wives are on ITIN, can get $600 back this year or so I think. The way to do this can be:
First file Married filing separately, claim $600 credit and then amend it to file married filing jointly. IRS will not ask stimulus back. Let me know your thoughts on this idea. I wish I could get $1200 but hey even $600 is better than nothing.
Any thoughts??

Let me preface this by stating that I have not yet shot with a D70, however I have heard very good things about it...particularly for it's price. IMHO, the best test of a camera is done in the field. By in "in the field", I mean does it allow you to do what you want it to do. A DSLR has a learning curve if you're coming from a P&S. Once you begin to master a DSLR, theimage quality bill be much better, and you also have much greater ability for creativity. If you want a D70, I'd take the info you've read regarding various issues with a grain of salt. Buy one from a reputable dealer that allows returns if it does'nt meet your expectations.
After deciding to buy the Nikon D70 I began to read a number of posts to the pReview forum that had D70 owners citing backfocusing problems with their new D70s. All resorted to sending their cameras to the Nikon Service Center for repair. All reported at least some measure of correction but some indicated they could not achieve precise focus within the DOF for each of the Nikon compatible lenses they owned and are useable with the D70.
I own two Sonys (the F707 and the V1). Both, in my view achieve remarkable clarity, color and brightness right out of the box. AF on both is, again in my view, is extraordinary. So, I would be very disappointed if I were to spend 1500 or more bucks (with some accessories) to arrive at inferior imagery.
It is possible what I am reading is the view of purists who are able to "see" focus flaws that the more casual, but still demanding, amateur photogs would dismiss?
Has anyone out there had experience with the backfocusing problem to which I refer?

Mahatma Gandhi, bless his soul, had the balls to stand up and fight back. On the other hand, majority of our community live in the fear of their own shadows. We should stop comparing our sorry selves to that great man when we lack an atom of the courage he had.

I wouldn't care to much if they steamline the process and make all EB categories "Current". If you submit the right documentation these days i-140 does not take more than an month.
But if the retrogression is like this then as well a retrogressed person does not care as in any case he cannot file together. The only people who are affected is the people who are eligible to apply for both with the PD as current. But how many people are there now in that frame of benefit.
So I really feel it should not bother us too much especially people from India. If I am wrong correct me.
