You deserve a gc right away after such a long and painful wait. Dont lose hopes.
Hi eb3retro,
I see that your PD is Jan 2003. Mine is Mar 03. I thought I would ask you about your opininons.
So, do you think we will get our GC in 2009?
Do you think it would be better to move to EB2?
Thanks for your inputs.

We can get a employment verification letter. But now a days you need employment verification letter for many things. Just recently, jan 2009, I carried EVL for visa stamping. Now, my DL is expiring, should I ask them again for EVL. It has become more like HR nightmare for having a non-immigrants in the copany. These taylor made rules are not appropriate. When driving is a basic necassity, I could not comprahend why they need all additional documents. Any ways if this is true I have to ask my HR again to provide me one. Hope they do not get mad at me.
My HR already mad at me. Because
(1) First EVL - for AC21 job change
(2) Second EVL - to answer NOID
(3) Third EVL - for travel on AP
All the above in 3 months gap each after joining. Now if I ask for one more saying I need it for driver's license - she may ask if I also need an EVL to go to six flags or ride the NYC Subway

Congress never thought that I-485 processing would take more than 1 year (I-485 pending for 180 days is called "long-delayed" in 8 USC 1154(j), see also 8 USC 1571). If the USCIS was able to process all I-485 in one year time frame, there would be no retrogression!

However if you can get visitor visa and after entering america, if you apply for a I-485, most probably USCIS will approve your case. Therefore, In my opinion the challenge is getting B1/B2 visa when her husband is waiting for a adjustment of status.
No, it is not a question of whether she can get a visitor visa or not. I think the question is whether she CAN RISK applying for a visitor visa? The answer is NO. Filing for her to join or H1 seem to be the only options.

Quick Chain of events .
India rejected both Boeing and Lockheed Martin's proposal of fighters . I am not debating the reasons or the merits of this decision if this was right or wrong . I am just discussing the potential repercussions this has had so far and might have .
'Exclusion of US firms from IAF jet deal a setback for ties' (http://www.indianexpress.com/news/exclusion-of-us-firms-from-iaf-jet-deal-a-setback.../783401/)
1) The issue is so serious that Tim Roemer , US Ambassador to India submitted his resignation immediately since he was on the hook for making this deal work .This shows the measure of disappointment they had.
2) India was seeking US assurances in security a Permanent Security council seat , which looks far fetched now .
4) Pentagon , Whitehouse and the DoD very upset that deal fell through . This sentiment will certainly percolate to the USCIS and the State department and might embolden Anti Immigration senators whose measures will get more support in the house and senate.
5) Prosecution of companies entangled in cases like Infosys might find more support and favor with the Govt.
Question is how/if there will be a backlash against India / Indian's get back at us at least in the short term .Increased scrutiny and visa denials , PoE Harassment , GC audits etc.
Will the US take a Tit-for-Tat reaction on this issue is what remains to be seen.
I hope you are not one of the guys, who have mindset to kill the person who they THINK he is in their way to getting GC .. because it will be dangerous combination
And I hope what others have written made you reconsider your view. If not, see this fact : Pakistan has crossed such lines, even done much worse things, several times but US has not broken ties etc. What US actually responds to is the ASSERTION of sovereignty and SELF-RESPECT. Not pansy behavior, if you know what I mean.
Don't worry. US will respect India's right to act in its interests. If they dont, then what difference will remain between it and a common country.

Friend,
I firmly believe that you should not let go this company who screwed u....first and foremost hire a good immigration lawyer (i know it will cost some $$$)....but its important...and discuss with him your case...then sue that bastard company and let him have sleepless nights for couple of months....
Its fraud for the company to accept money for filin 140/labor....they will be screwed more for that...u can mention that the company told u that each employee pays his own costs....and hence u gave him money

Once the dollar touches that low, expect huge salary cuts across the board for the employess of these companies.
Yeah, easy money overnight is not always possible. Business in general is never easy. Lot of people think it is. People used to easy money, can never adapt to tough times. Those capable hard working businessmen who can adapt to any situations are the real businessmen.

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.

Dear IV folks,
After a long long 7 years I finally received my Green Card y'day.
If not anything... this process does forcefully teach patience, hope, anger mgnt & gives a new understanding of terms UNFAIR & UNJUST.
My app did experience all the delays ..Backlog centers, company change, date portability, NameCheck..
For expediting Namecheck & Serv. ticket I had written/fax/calls to almost everyone in govt. White House, First Lady, DHS Dir, TSC Dir, USCIS Dir, Senator...
Not sure if anything worked, but finally 180 day rule might have helped.
Finally ...it's a great sense of relief.
I was desperately needing it now as I wanted MBA loan & change of field etc.
Special thanks to pappu,logiclife,berkeleybee,Googler ...you guys are the lighthouses in this long tempest.
It's amazing that someone whom you don't know & have never met, inspire & guide so many others.
All the very best to everyone & I hope everyone gets their GC in a FAIR order - FIFO -.
God bless you all.

No. I am not an employee of any of the companies named in H1B visa fraud last week. The current employer is my the sponserer of my H1 B visa and also my first employer . I did not change my employer.
This does sound strange, do you know what was the reason for this officer's visit to your employer two months back? also, i would suggest make sure all your paper work is fine, I mean LCA etc. indicating your correct place of work and right wages.

This "AP already approved" so no interimAP(even for emergency) audiotape started since Middle of OCT from NSC IO and local IO's. My AP got LUD on Oct 11th and they said that your AP approved so dont bug us for a duplicate. Wait ... Wait .. Wait ... But how long ??
What do i do now ? I cant travel without this piece of sheet ( i mean paper)
According to my lawyer one should contact USCIS in case of non receipt of AP (Physical Papers) within a month from first LUD. During that call one should ask USCIS whether USCIS get AP papers back or not ( For whatever reason address change and/or wrong address etc.. not delivered to you). If USCIS receive those papers back then it will resend it upon verifying correct address with you and that is without any extra cost. To make this happen certainly you will have to either make frequent calls to USCIS or take frequent infopass appointments.Down the road if USCIS does not get AP papers back and you simultaneously do not get them, meaning if paper lost during transit, then you do have 2 choice..(1) forget about receipt of AP approval papers this time (2) Refile AP with new fee as USCIS did not get mail (papers) back.

The skin test is mandatory. Also, your blood test results might take a day or two. I really dont think you have any option but to ask her to come back a few days early.
TB skin test is not mandotory.
I would recommend that you wife gets following tests done and have results ready when you go and see doctor on 15th.
1) Blood test for HIV and RPR(syphilis)
2) Chest XRay
3) Vaccination - MMR, DT(Tetanus booster) and Varicella
if you take the results of tests and proof of vaccination on the day of visit then the medical report can be given same day.
I also recommend that you download form I-693 and I-693A , make few copies, fill up the information like name, A number, date of birth etc and have it ready for the physician to complete the rest of stuff. Make sure you don't sign the form until your doctor signs it. Also don't forget to ask for a copy of the completed for before he seals it.
Hope this helps.

You can change you job after 180 days with an approved i-140. And job description and duties should be same or similar. So would you say the job duties are same/similar?
Does that mean 180 after the I140 is approved or 180 after the RN of the I485 as long as the I140 is approved? (Even if it has been approved for only 2 months)

NSC probably sent applications to CSC for data entry, I am a july 2 filer, my EAD(I131)/AP(I765) and all receipt notices were sent to me by CSC all are WAC### numbers which means its from CSC, then they sent just the AOS (I485) back to NSC saying they do not have Jurisdiction on the AOS application (Logic behind this is - because my I140 was approved by NSC, I have a LIN### on I140 application).
This transfers happens in the 4 centers all the time no need to worry, there is delay associated though... :(
Anywayz all said and done... I have not received my FP notice as yet...My Receipt Notice date : Aug23
I filed at Nebraska for 485, my 140 is approved by --I donot know but the receipt notice number starts with SRC, i think texas.
My application transferred from NSC to CSC and back to NSC.
Should I expect my application be transferred now to TSC as my I140 was approved there?
The delay is the pain..... and it continues... NO FP yet.
