look the same. From those Anti_immigrant, anti-foriegn programers group. Wake up buddy you should welcome new immigrants or you and your father won't get your social security payment. That's reality. Becoz all of your children are working in either Burger Kings or McDonald's without working hard for thier degrees. And I agree they work hard on asking you if it is TO GO or for here. You want any soda?

Just came back from Info pass appointment.
The officer told me that they haven't seen any thing wrong in the system.
Further he told in both of our cases the back ground check is completed and cases are "pre-adjudicated" (i don't know what does it mean)
Then i have asked him why the letter says "not admissible under the current law"
He said, there might be a very minor details the officer needs to clarify or send it to his superior for review. Further more he said he does not have the physical file in his hand right now if you want i will request for the file and look into that. I asked him what do you suggest on this, he said wait for some more time as i don't see any problems in your case. If i order the file your case will be taken out for nearly two months from the queue.
That sounds like good news. You must be relieved.

1) My screen name has nothing to do with the argument here. If we discuss my screen name we are going on a tangent which is very typical of desis (I rememeber womanly taunts in movies and woman gossip where they would pick anything but would niether make a point nor a valid argument)
so you can see where your argument is going..
2) Hopefull signifies optimism. A pessimist is an optimist who is very analytical or knows better. Your argument is similar to "And they lived happily ever after ...(after singing around green trees) ...." ignoring the ground reality, facts that no dent has been made and also turninga blind eye to the fact that there are people since 2001/2002 stuck. Its 2007 meaning five years and if the Dept is not willing to budge after all these efforts to a number more than 7000, and you still are HOPEFULL ignoring the facts means that you are an idiot. Yes you will get your GC before you die for sure provided you live upto the age of appx 70 and your consulting firm is around and you are not tired of the bickering with your employer.
Its just like a Yash Chora SRK movie ...it only happens in reel life and not real life ..
3) as far as the FT job goes we both knwo it deep within what it means...i hope you are smart enough to get the point and wont make me word it to emabrass you further..
4) if you would be intelligent enough to shed some light on how kindness and make you get your GC in thsi scenario ...
just a piece of advise ..STOP BEING DUMB

I have old I 140 approval notice, Is it necessary to send the old I 140 approval while interfiling. What if the old company withdraw old I 140, How can I interfile in that situation.
to port..the pD..u need to send in the earlier approved 140 with the new 140 that you file..
i have read of instances when the PD was successful and few instances when it was not...
so i am not sure..what the criteria is..
but if you are in the same industry..PD porting should not be an issue..
....
i have a feeling sooner or later PD porting may be banned by USCIS..;-)

Thanks Pappu and IV for doing this. Maybe this should come with a big disclaimer that this is just a prediction and nobody can predict how USCIS\DOS behaves on a day to day basis, therfore dont put any weight or hopes on this projection, otherwise this will turn into the infamous prediction from VDLRAO who claimed Eb2 India will be current in a year. The year has gone by and Eb2 India is not even clearing Jan 05.

I Still Believe in USCIS for the GC and the H1B Processing for giving me a fair chance to particpate, eventhough its a Lottery ( more or less like that for GC Processing also, although its not an "official" thing), because if GC was processed from India, i know that half of the people will come with an MP's, and MLA's recommentation, another group will come with distant relatives in USCIS( to approve their cases faster) and another group would bribe the officials to get it. Poor people like me who dosent have any of these will wait for a GC or H1B forever. Its only because in US when we stand in a Queue or line, we see the FIFO, we expect the same from USCIS also
Even horse-betting has some amount of skill level (of the horse) and knowledge involved when u place a bet...and to think about it....When I used to be in India, I was told why India is not improving is because meritocracy takes a back seat everywhere while in US people are rewarded based on merits. I now realize with the backlog and the H1B that things are worse out here. GC process is such a long and arduous process that it takes the most productive years of your life away by forcing to work in a company without a change in position. H1B has now become even more of a laughing stock because of the mega lotto we have every year and everyone could see this coming 100 miles away and pity that nothing was done for last 2 years to address this problem

Yeah - I should have clarified that when I said most - I was refering to people whose PD is before 2006.
not "most"!! only few have a wait of 3-4 years, most have a wait of over a decade....the numbers of applications pending at AOS stage at USCIS is scary

Shiller is smart but I think he is confusing the word 'Immigrant' with the word 'stupid'.
I am an immigrant and why should I buy an unaffordable over priced house which no American is willing to buy?

There is 200k application without 140 approval, this is including july filers.
there is lot of chnace for those who got their I-140 approved, even their PD '2006.
you can see people getting approved PD'2005 EB2 cases, even then VB says now 2004'apr for EB2.They are not processing based on PD now and in future also i gues.Since we have already filed.PD will restrict only to File I-485 in future.
I think EB2-jan2007 and EB3-Aprl2005 in October VB

Finally after repeated expedite requests, SR, etc, I just received a call from my local congressman that NSC mentioned to them that AP renewal has been approved. I just saw a LUD update yesterday and today in my and my spouse's AP online case status. Its still sitting in initial review only. Hopefully it will show me approved in a day or two. Local congressman told that they will keep my case open until I call back and let them know its approved. Hoping to see an approval soon, will keep you all updated.

5. This employer is a consulting company...(desi) & they asked me to sign a financial agreement to repay their expenses on labor substitution/I-140/I-485...if I will leave them early. ...Is it legal to ask for such kind of agreement...?
Please let me know as much as info/ guidance you can provide to me.
Great thanks in advance for all of your help.
-------------------------------------------
Asking you to sign an agreement is not illegal. There are employers (even big names) who ask their employees to take care of the expenses for GC processing. The main concern should be to verify if this company practices fraud. The only way to check is either by searching on the web or talking to some other employees who work for this consultant (making sure these employees are also not part of the fraud).
I am sure you have heard about people like Nick Mandalapa who were filing multiple I-140 for the same labor certification . The sad part is that there is no USCIS online system to verify if a labor certification was used to successfullly file I-140/485.
And remember that if there is fraud it can haunt you ater in your life even "AFTER" you get your GC. USCIS can revoke your GC at any time if there is a proof that a fraud has occured in the process.
I hope this helps and best of luck.!

In the same lines as H1B, could we look into if its possible to add a quota for US Masters degree holders irrespective of country of birth for green Card also. This would be in addition to the existing Employment based quotas.
Does anyone know how they added 20k H1B quota for Masters degree holders? Who sponsored that bill? May be we should talk to the same people.
I would think there would be a little less resistance for this? This would ease the pressure on both EB2 and EB3.
I dont know if this has been previously looked at. I know there were talks of excluding these people from quota all together.

A core member has been helping me in this matter. I really have to thank the core for being so responsive and for giving this matter the kind of attention it deserves. There is some progress in this case and the quickness with which the IV Core acted on this and moved the issue forward gives me and my family hope.
We have been patiently waiting in the immigration queue for close to 10 years and finally when we are so close to the end of this long journey become victims of a clerical error which was completely out of our control. IV has provided our family with hope. I thank IV for that
We pray that this issue gets resolved and I hope that no one else has to go thorugh this trying situation.

Most status related issues are wiped off after a travel outside US.
What I would worry about most is if any misrepresentation was made to USCIS as far as status goes. Years later or even during naturalization, one's could face audit and possible revocation of an approved application.
I have a similar question that has been bugging me for some time and hasn't gotten a clear answer. Here is the details and not sure if there would be any problem to I-485.
1. My wife came to US on H4 in Dec '03 which is valid up to sept' 06. Given I-94 reflecting same.
2. Traveled outside US on H4 twice and each time got new I-94 till Set' 06.
3. Applied for H1B and got approved for adjustment for status from Oct' 2005 with I-94 at the bottom of approval notice. H1B approval notice and I94 is valid till sept' 2008.
4. Employer (consulting firm) insisted on getting SS number before searching for projects so applied for SS# and waited.
5. After delays received SS card in March' 06.
6. Found a project soon, but the start date was from June ' 06 and 'officially' joined the company from June' 06.
7. Employer asked for a signed letter from my wife that due to health reasons, she is joining two months late - not sure if it is purely for their safety or ours?.
8. Continuous paychecks since jun '06
9. Haven't traveled abroad after getting H1B approved.
9. Applied for I485 together in June' 07 with me being direct beneficiary and wife being derivative. Submitted all documents i., passports, I-94, approval notices, w-2, tax returns, employment letter etc for both.
So the question is not getting paychecks or not joining the company immediately can cause any problem to her I485? I read some where that It is not a problem for H1B AOS as person is not required to join the employer immediately after getting approved for H4 to H1B AOS and it is a problem only if entered the country on H1B and not receiving paychecks in between.. Is this true??
Also, it says on USCIS website that employee-employer relation is critical for H1B and employee can be on vacation, sick, out of pay etc. Not exactly sure what it means by relation.

Hello All,
Thanks for your thoughts & advise. It helped me in my conversation with my company's attorney. I would first like to clear my educational background. I have 10 + 2( HSC/ 12th Grade) + 1 (1st year of Bachelors of Commerce) + 3 year Diploma in my field. That being said this is what she has advised/recommended.
She states that she is fairly confident that we can argue successfully the denial. She has said that she will file an MTR/Appeal & at the same time file a new I-140 too. She says she thinks there is a 50% chance that the MTR would be successful, if not she said it will go for appeal & take about a year. The advantage she said of filing a new I-140 at the same time is that she can make an airtight case with the cover letter covering the points for the reason for the denial of this I140 & the decision on the new I-140 would be fairly quick if the appeal is denied as it was filed witht eh appeal for the old one. The only disadvantage with a new I-140 would be that we cant file for 485 till there is an open visa, which means no EAD/AP for myself & my wife.
Can members with knowledge of these kind of scenarios shed some of their thoughts?
Thanks.
Hello All,
I have just received a copy of the denial notice that USCIS sent to the attorney for my I-140. This is what the notice states is the reason for the denial. Can someone please advise me what my chances are for an appeal to be approved? My lawyer is noncommittal at this this time. My I140 was filed under the EB3 Category. My 6th year of H1B expires in June.
"A Bachelor's degree is generallt found to require 4 years of education. Therefore, the beneficiary's 3 year diploma is not equivalent to a 4 year bachelors degree which is the minimum educational requirement to be classified as a professional on this labor certificate.
Under part H Number 4 of the Labor Certificate, the petitoner has checked the box "Other" under education. Under part 4-A the petitioner stated: 'Will accept academic studies evaluated as equivalent of US Bachelors'. The evaluation submitted indiactes that the beneficiary has the foreign equivalent of a US Bachelor of Science.
However this statement cannot infer that the petitioner will accept anything less than the minimum education requirements for a professional, i.e Bachelors degree. The evidence indicates that the beneficiary does not have a bachelors degree or foreign equivalent degree. Therefore, the beneficiary does not meet the minimum requirements of the ETA-9089"
Please note that I have a 3 year diploma & 1 year towards Bachelors in business & this case was files at the Texas Center. Any insights from knowledgeable members will be helpful.
