If one changes from EB3 to EB2, then priority date is lost!
Karthik,
(I am not expert) but I believe , you have to refile (New application) under EB2 catagory and port the EB3 date to EB2.

Thank you all for your suggestions and they are helpful.
I would wait for one or two months for the next FY visa bulletins and decide on starting my new labour in EB2.
Thank you again.
If your current/future job is eligible for EB-2, you have the qualifications to meet the job requirement and your employer is willing to start EB-2 process, I would get the process started as soon as possible. With your current EB-3 PD, I dont see anything changing in the next 1 to 2 months. You might as well start it now so you can complete the PERM documentation and advertising phase and file PERM in 2-3 months duration instead of waiting. Thats my 2 cents.

This website is not the property of your mother's lover. There is no relation between buying the house and immigration status you genius pinhead. If you loose your immigration status, you can always sell the house.
Really... Selling a house takes longer and in some places its six month - a year. When you are detained at the airport, you can not list your house and sit in the airport for a year. Think before what you post.

We submitted our EAD application in June first week and we got our card this week, effective from last week of July for the next one year.
Our priority date is October 2006- EB2 and we are not current. So shouldnt we have been issued a 2 year EAD?
Also we gave our finger prints last year (July 2007 filer) but this time too both the EAD cards shows no FP available .
The EAD card of my spouse (he is the primary applicant says signature waived) I still have signature on my EAD card. Anyone else with the card that says signature waived. Previous card had his signature in there.

It was a disclaimer. I never said it was bad for you. But there have been people estimating it will still take 2-3 yrs for eb3 to reach 2005 ....is that true????.. i have no idea since the data cant be broken down at PERM level.
I just wanted to underscore that my promising feeling might not seem promising to someone else and that I under stand what they r going thru...nothing more than that

Hello Sleuths,
:) I appreciate your logical thinking and attention to detail! Yes, I've a worldwide roaming cell phone whose number is listed in Bay area, but I can receive calls wherever cellphone signal reaches.
I had included my cell phone number in my letters to IO earlier and he first called my office number and then tried my cell.
Hope the IO was not just checking if you still work for the employer you listed in your application. Not finding you in your office, and your telling him that you are out of country for an extended period may raise some flags.

One of my friends wanted to travel abroad, and her lawyer asked her not to, it because she would lose her H1 status. I guess even the same thing is mentioed on Murthy's web site too, where it was mentioed that it better to get your H1 stamped, if you do not want to lose H1.
So, I am surprised to hear that we could travle on AP, and also come back and extend our H1.

Changing company after getting Green Card
I would like to discuss this important topic about changing company after getting Green Card (GC).
I do understand this topic was discussed in the past and lot of our members may have enough information about the topic. The reason why we need this new thread is to consolidate various immigration lawyers’ opinion in this matter, so that our members could take informed decision.
Question is how long one should work for the same company, through which they are getting the Green Card?
My Opinion:
Do not change job at least for 1 year. The law does not specify the duration for which you should work for the company through which you got the GC.
The official rule is that you must not have any preconceived intention to leave the job when you get your Green Card.
I am going to update various top lawyers opinion in the next section.

With that said, let me be a devils-advocate, if you will, and ask these questions:
Given ours is a issue-based, goal-based struggle, with Goal & Issue being same for ALL EB immigrants:
--- Why should I expect all immigrants to wear any organization's badge, be dedicated to any particular/one organization, whether that Org is IV/Democrats/Republicans/Congress/BJP
--- Shouldn't I be just worried about who can SHOUT louder about my issue and less worried about the Organization that's making them SHOUT?
-----
Thanks for the discussion again.
Hypothetically speaking, let's assume all the 55,000 members in IV are active but are not organized under one umbrella (IV). Each of them have the same problem (stuck in the backlogs) and each of them approach lawmakers. Each discusses their own personal case and each of them discuss about a solution that fits them - (human nature). Some of them may be the very same provisions as IV. But will these 55,000 people mention all the provisions? chances are - No.
So, there will be no coherent messaging, even though there are 55,000 people participating simultaneously.
Second, without being an organized unit, we loose the collective strength. Say a lawmaker is interested in fixing our problems - his task will be tremendous - he probably has only 10 people who have approached his office to fix the problem - so not only does he have to find out if there is a wide range of people affected by this problem, he also has to contact each of the 10 people individually. Guess what? he too will suggest for the 10 people to join forces and be under one umbrella.
What I am trying to say is that IV has already brought us together. It has built good relations with key people in DC. It has done the ground work. Why not build on the sound foundation?
In life we are ready to be grouped as Indians, Indian-Americans, Asians, Male, Female, Married, Unmarried, Hindu, Christian, Muslim, political organizations (we believe in one or the other - independents, democrats, republicans, congress, bjp), Unions, Employees of Cisco, IBM, Desi Consulting - what is wrong in identifying oneself in a group if you believe in it? By nature we are a collective group, but we think that it is wrong/unnecessary to belong to a group! We think we are smarter for being independent. But the truth is that even the most independent of the guys lives in a society. He may not accept it, but that does not change the facts.
Bottom line is, what each one of us believe in. If we believe in a cause, we will find a way to work on it. Quantity matters only when there is quality. If we have to depend on only one, my preference would be on quality. I want the loudest person, but at the same time, I want that loud person to be shouting the message that I want - or else it defeats the purpose.
Leo, this is just my opinion, not IV's - though I would think IV will agree with me. I believe in collective strength and individual's logic to think matters through (no brainwashing!).

But remember that this does NOT include 3 LARGE groups of potential EB's:
1. Those who have NOTHING filed with USCIS yet, since their LC is still at the BEC==>THIS IS CORRECT
2. Those whose I-140's have been approved, but can't file I-485 yet.==>I THINK THIS HAS BEEN TAKEN ACCOUNT OF BY USCIS.
3. The dependants of (1) and (2).==>THIS IS CORRECT
None of the above would be counted as having a 'pending' case with USCIS.==>nO.2 HAS BEEN ACCOUNTED FOR

H1 B Alien need not be paid all the time. I guess one can be on unpaid vacation for a while. pls see below.

Krishna_brc is correct. H1 B alien can be on medical leave, sick leave and can be unpaid during that period.
