Hello I am leaving for India in two days and have still not received my H1B approval. The receipt date is May 19th 2009. It is being processed at the CA center, is there anything I can to do get it soon.
It was a regular processing one, not the Premium processing one.
Help please!!!!
I am not sure what kind of help you are expecting from members. It seems you already are aware of Premium Processing (PP) service. If you had travel plans, you should have filed H1 under PP and not under regular processing. Anyways, you can upgrade your pending H1 to PP now by filing a form I-907 along with a copy of H1 receipt notice. But I dont think you will get your approval in the next 2 days. It usually takes atleast a week to 10 days to get it, that if its approved with no RFEs.

I have recently renewed my passport in Washington, DC. As I stay far away from DC, I get it renewed by post. It took exactly 40 working days to get the new passport. I remember, you have to select a date while filing the application form. So, dont wait... apply asap.
Hi all, My passport is going to expire next month (November 28th). I can drive easily upto DC consulate .. wanted to know if there is anything specific I need to do. The website (Embassy of India - Washington DC (official website) United States of America - Application for a New Passport or Reissue of Passport (10) years (http://www.indianembassy.org/index.php?option=com_content&id=167)) does not mention anything about "walk in to consulate" information.
Specifically,
1. Do I need to call and book appointment ? If yes, is there a minimum waiting time to get an appointment, like how many days before ...
2. Will I get the renewed passport the same day ?
Any other points/instructions that you think are important please let me know.
Thanks in advance for your help. :)

Hi all!
Wat would be the status of F1 student (OPT) mother of a US born baby after her visa expires, who is a single parent???
Well you have sufficient time for the OPT to finish, but say you are at the end of your OPT you need to find a job which does h1b so that you have a valid visa status (or) continue your education so that you have another study visa.
Say you want to go back to your home country, then make sure you have proper visa for your kid to enter your home country. Say your home country is India, then you need to file PIO Card for your kid or get a indian visa for your kid before you enter your home country, because your kid is a US Citizen and needs permit to enter in to your home country.

Here is a memo from one of the law firms, I found on the net.
http://www.michaelpiston.net/documents/m/changing%20employer%20after%20I-485%20is%20approved.pdf
After digging thro' forums it seems everyone talks about having the "intention" of staying with the Employer after GC.
Here's my question.
- Should the "intention" be on the day of filing 485 or the day you get GC ? (a date in future that no one can predict).
If the "intention" has to be at the time of 485 filing then, after 180 days of filing 485 one should be able to change employers, irrespective of the case being approved or NOT.
thoughts/comments ??
Logically speaking it should be while filing the petition not while getting the GC approved. All in all you should portray an intention of joining in your activities through your GC process. However, if your position warrants a shift and you can justify it, I guess you are good to go.

My friends company is considering to send him to Canada for some consulting assignment.
All other people in the department are USA Citizens.
I was wondering what Visa would my friend need to work in Canada.
I ask , as USA citizens may have different rules than Indian Citizens , to work in Canada.
Does anyone else have any experience with this ?

The preadjucation process is just like bringing a pregnant woman into labor but not allowing her to give birth till the babies number comes . The woman then needs to be painful labor for 28 years ( some member said that’s how long it will take ) , so the baby is grown and healthy ( preadjucated according to USCIS ) , but the doctors from the Department of state ( DOS ) are not allowing the baby to come out into the world .
USCIC is off late preadjucating the petitions and keeping them ready and many members seem to thrive on just seeing and discussing the LUD dates since by now most of us know somewhere in the subconsious that the GC is a nothing but a bone tied to our tail which we might never be able to bite .
Some members including me who unfortunately lack the analytical skills of some looked into a very interesting thread some time back which said EB2 will be current within a year . It spoke about 'spillovers' and we all were very happy that finally our baby will see the light of the day . Just like hope never dies I even though the dates have moved back to a date when most of us were in graduate college and the Clinton administration just left , some members are still now hopeful of a "spillover".
I for one have done what it takes for 4 long years in all ways possible to wake these guys up and now I am honestly least bothered about my GC and I feel the earlier members get to this level of mindset it will give them a lot of mental peace . I am just waiting for my visa to expire or my wall street employer to lay me off( whichever happens earlier ) in which case I also get a free ticket home .
The expectation that "next month may be the month" will surely kill you long before your GC actually gets cleared ( after 28 years ) .

Hi all, not sure if this has been posted in any other thread, if so, Admin please delete.
I was surprised to get a letter in mail from USCIS today dated March 26th referring my letter sent to White House from IV letter campaign.
Basically it says the letter was forwarded to USCIS from White House and after they researched my case, it is still under name check and my PD is not current yet for a visa. They also included three inserts on fact sheet about name checks-why and how, new memorandum on name checks that has been discussed here and the March/08 visa bulletin showing that my priority date is not current.
Just basic stuff but I wonder if these are being sent to everyone that sent a letter to the President during the campaign. Anyone else received the letter?

I have PD which is current (Jun 03 EB2 India), a RD which is current (Jun 05! yes VSC transfer to TSC in Apr 07). In the last week of Nov 07 got a simple RFE (medical RFE wherein the doc forgot to check one box), which was replied promptly and got confirmation from USCIS that they got the response.
Have been following up with USCIS (service request, POJ-TSC from April 7th). Got a soft LUD today (04/22/2008). does it mean anything ?

I am an Indian citizen. I have an approved I-140 under National Interest Waiver with a PD of Aug 31, 2007. I am now a permanently employed scientist at a National Lab. I think I am now eligible for application under EB-1 Outstanding researcher category. Is it possible to apply for I-485 without another I-140? It will take quite some time to secure all the recommendation letters to apply for EB-1 (OR). I am wondering if I can bypass the whole process of I-140 and directly apply for adjustment of status based on my approved I-140 saving time and effort.
Thanks in advance for any answer.
You need to start from ground zero...EB2 NIW is different from EB1, so you can not use the EB2-140

anyways, I like the postive spirit.
I mean literally.
Here is one last scenario ( perhaps that is why all attorneys are saying - 'continue with your filings and go on with your life' AND all old saws all good old folks at IV might say 'I told you so'). So, not to be let out, here is my take on things to unfold tomorrow:
Why did they wait till Jul 2?
They will release the Aug VB tomorrow. In which they will retrogress most or all categories to 'U'.
They will enforce the 'DMV office rule'. All who have filed on the basis of Jul VB, will be receipted, may be finger printed but AOS adjudicated and GCs issued as dates become current.
Good night and good luck to all, particularly to those '599 (174 members and 425 guests)'
Ok Guys enough "PREDECTIONS" now go to bed.
Only the coming days will tell us what is going on and what will happen. Everything else is just hear-say.
Go to sleep and remember that we DO have day jobs.

My LC application (RIR PD Oct 2003) from company A is pending in P-BEC. My RIR got denied recently in Nov 06 and my company informed me that they are considering to use TR->RIR conversion to upgrade the LC to RIR. Can somebody please tell me the process of TR->RIR converion? How long it takes? Pros. and Cons. ?Any help is greatly appreciated
Meanwhile company B filed an LC (RIR PD March 2005). This is also pending in P-BEC. But the lawyer has not received any case number nor 45 day letter.The lawyer is not giving much information. Can somebody please tell me the process?
Thanks
I can comment on second item. I was in the same situation (PD March 05 @ D-BEC). There was absolutely no communication from DOL. One fine day in Sept, I got case approval notice (via lawyer). I think there is still hope yours may be done soon.

u can file but u have to join the petition filing employer once u get GC or otherwise it will be fraud.
smuggymba nailed it. If you never worked for your GC emp its fraud and will create issues during Naturalization.

Yes it happened to me, I didnt loose my internet connection that time but simply forget to change address on my pending 485 applications :)
Called the USCIS customer service center and one of the representative did update manually. Yes you can also do that for sure
Thanks

Hi there,
I changed my address using the online facility provided by USCIS by filling out the AR-11 form. I got the confirmation for that. After that when I started to change for pending petitions (I-485), lost my internet connection. I could not go back to that part again.
I checked all the FAQ's etc but could not find a link that would explain how to change only the pending petitions, since AR-11 was already changed.
Please let me know if anybody was in the similar situation.
Thank you!!!
