From immigration law website

10/17/2007: Total of 60,000+ EB-485 Applications Adjudicated During July-August-September by NSC and TSC

* AILA has reported that during the period of July, August, and September 2007, Nebraska Service Center and Texas Service Center adjudicated 60,000 plus EB-485 applications. Since EB visa number was unavailable for the entire EB cases in August, presumedly a substantial portion of these cases could include those cases for which the EB visa numbers were pull out before July 2, 2007 in June and adjudicated throughout the period as reported by some I-485 applicants who reported that their I-485 applications were approved when the visa number was unavailable. Interesting.

I saw soft LUDs on all our applications at NSC (pending 485s, 131s and approved 765s) on 12/12 and 12/15. This should mean some sort of system update on NSC, is it ? or should I look forward to good/bad news :confused: ? My PD is nowhere close to the current cut off date for EB2-I.

I have 3yrs degree(Microbiology) and one year postgraduation diploma in computer science and 9years of work experience, Can I apply on EB2, some peolple saying at I-140 stage it gets problemetic with your degree, my employer says you can eligible to apply on EB2, Iam in real dilama, can any one please help me... thanks

I tend to think that your I140 in EB2 will be a problem. Specially so if your filing center is Nebraska. They have a reputation to be very very strict. Ask your employer if he has previously approved cases for people with your background.

Hi everyone:


Can someone suggest if I'm in a hot water over this issue. My company applied for the labor certification back in Dec. 2002. In the Labor Certification form they quoted 40 for the "Total hours per week". The LC was approved back in July of 2007. Later in Sept. of 2007 we filed I-140 and I-485 concurrently.

In April of this year my company received an RFE for the I-140, where USCIS requested some additional translations and my W-2 forms for all the years of my employment. We've responded to it.

So here's my question. Since 2002 my working schedule changed and now I work 32 hours per week, that is different than 40, which was included in the LC. It doesn't say anywhere in my W-2's, but one can easily see that I'm being paid less by doing some simple math.

Do you think this would pose a problem and if so, what shall I do at this point?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,
My wife had a EAD and it is expiring in October 08 and my wife's H4 is expiring in August 08. I got a mail from my employer to renew my H1 and my wife's H4 status as both are expiring in August.

I am planning to extend my wife's EAD Next week as she had plans to work.

My question is, is it advisable to extend my wife H4 also? Is there any problem because both applications (H4 and EAD) will processed by uscis at the same almost time.

Please advice.

A lot of IT professionals born in India justly feel that their immigration cases have been going on forever. We recently concluded a case for an Indian IT professional which was one of the longest and most complex that I have ever encountered. Mr. S received his degree in Computer Science from a prestigious university in the Midwest almost 20 years ago. During the 1990s, he worked for various employers in H-1B status. In 1999 and 2000, his employer obtained the approval of a labor certification and an I-140 visa petition (EB-3) on his behalf. This made him eligible for...

I have my H1B visa with NIIT. My petition and visa for the first 3 yr period expire in October 2008. I am returning to India in April '08 to do my MBA, and will resign from NIIT, and therefore will not be able to renew my visa.

If I want to work in the US after I graduate, say in August '09, can an employer file a transfer petition based on this visa? Or Will they have to file for a new one under the quota? And if so, is there a way that I can hang on to my H1 status?

Thanks!

I am working for a MNC and I got L1 visa stamped. After marriage I got my H4 visa stamped.(After L1 stamping) But the Visa officials have not marked the L1 visa cancelled in the passport, does it mean that the Visa is still valid? Does that mean that i can still travel on my L1 visa?

If your L1 petition is still valid (not withdrawn by employer) and you intend to work for that employer (ie. fullfill all other L1 requirements) then yes, you can still travel on L1 and maintain L1 status in the US.

Regarding coming back on F1 after being on H4... You should really consider talking to an attorney. With F1 visa you need to prove that you would come back to India at the time of stamping, but with your spouse being on H1 and in states.. how do you thing you can prove that you will come back to India when your spouse is in the states..

Is it a warning to Americans that they will loose their land if they let more immigrants in?

Anyway, my guess is that native Americans must have been a lot more friendly to White people when they just came to this land. Hospitality is the nature of people in less advanced society. The more advanced a society is, the less hospitable the people are because people in more advanced society have a stronger sense of ownership.

Congress Has Been Stymied By Bush, Republicans (http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/news/news-usa-congress.html) By REUTERS, December 11, 2007

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush wants it known the U.S. Congress has been asleep at the switch since Democrats took over in January. The only problem is that he and his fellow Republicans have flipped off the switch at nearly every turn, Democrats say.

"The end of 2007 is approaching fast and the new Congress has little to show for it," Bush told reporters in the White House Rose Garden last week.

Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, the Republican leader in the House of Representatives, was even less generous. "Nothing has been accomplished all year," he said.

As they excoriate political opponents, Bush and his fellow Republicans in Congress have successfully stopped most major Democratic initiatives this year.

They have staged an unprecedented number of "filibusters" in the Senate, where Democrats do not have a big enough majority to end debate. The few times that wasn't the case, Bush used his veto pen to kill Democrats' top priorities, like ending the Iraq war, expanding health care to children from low-income families and expanding stem cell research.

"Sadly, Republicans in Washington are determined to make this a 'no-can-do' Congress," Assistant Senate Majority Leader Richard Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, said in his party's weekly radio address on Saturday.

With only a week or two remaining in the first half of 110th Congress that convened in January, there's a deflated feeling on Capitol Hill.

Democrats and Republicans complain not enough has been accomplished. The public seems to agree, with just one in five Americans approving of the job Congress is doing, even worse than the unpopular Bush's ratings.

The legislative deadlock might get even worse next year, as election campaigns for Congress and the presidency get into full swing.

Ethan Siegal of the Washington Exchange, a private group that tracks Congress, said of Republicans' opposition tactics: "The template for trying to get into power is to make sure the party in charge doesn't have many legislative successes."

But even many Republicans think accusations of a "do-nothing" Democratic Congress won't be enough for their party to win back their majority status in the November 2008 elections.

PROMISES KEPT?

Democrats quickly fulfilled many of their 2006 campaign promises, raising the minimum wage for the first time in a decade, implementing stalled recommendations of the commission that investigated the September 11 attacks and trying to stop ethics abuses that plagued Congress during years of Republican leadership.

Republicans blocked many other measures.

A top domestic priority -- reforming U.S. immigration law -- was buried by conservative Republicans in the House. On foreign affairs, Republicans killed repeated moves to bring combat in Iraq to an end, despite Americans' disenchantment with a war now in its fifth year. Anti-war feeling was a driving factor behind the Democrats' success in last year's elections.

Popular legislation to expand stem cell research to help cure diseases such as Parkinson's was vetoed by Bush, as was a bill to deliver health care to more children from low-income families.

More recently, the House passed an energy bill that would improve automobile fuel efficiency for the first time in 32 years but Senate Republicans, heeding a White House veto threat, stopped it.

And Bush has veto threats on the remaining bills to fund the government through next September.

He recently told Arkansas business leaders: "You're fixing to see what they call a fiscal showdown in Washington."

But despite the bluster, Bush and congressional Democrats are at odds over a relatively tiny slice, about $11 billion, of the nearly $3 trillion budget.

Negotiations between the two finally have begun, but a compromise -- some war funding coupled with some of the additional domestic spending Democrats want -- was showing signs of souring this week, again amid accusations of Republican sabotage. There's plenty of incentive for a deal though as neither side wants government shutdowns to begin if agencies run out of money this month.

The USCIS, on May 18, 2009, once again provided an update on the number of filings for H-1B petitions for the fiscal year 2010 program.

It announced that it has received approximately 45,500 H-1B petitions counting toward the Congressionally-mandated 65,000 cap. It continues to accept petitions subject to the general cap.

I can report personally that the most recent H-1B regular cap I-129 petition that I filed was filed on May 11 and it was approved on May 15 � premium processed.

Also, the USCIS announced that is has received approximately 20,000 petitions for aliens with advanced degrees, consistent with its prior update and it reconfirmed that it is still accepting advanced degree petitions because it assumes that not all the petitions it received are approvable.

It�s beginning to look like the cap isn�t going to be reached any time soon and, who knows, maybe not at all this fiscal year.

Valid AP is enough to travel - no one should care about your EAD if you are entering based on your AP. Ofcourse, always carry a copy of the I-485 and your wife can say that you are the primary applicant if they ask for her work status, etc...

Traveling with an AP (w/o EAD) should not be an issue. Good luck!

I joined company ABC on H1B in 2005.
In Nov 2006 company XYZ filed my GC.


H1B got transferred to a couple of companies because I changed jobs while GC was being processed in parallel without being affected by my job changes because it was filed by another company.

In Oct 2007 got my EAD for a period of 1 year. Kept working on H1B only though.
EAD expired in Oct 2008. Applied for a new card but never received it. Did not apply for one after that.
In Nov 2009, I quit my job and moved back to home country giving up my H1B while still not affecting my GC because company XYZ agreed to keep it under process.

So at this time, I have no H1B and no EAD card. My priority date is however going to be current soon.
Now...

1) Do I have to be in the country before my dates get current or can I do that later?
2) On what status do I enter?
3) Can I delay the process somehow without affecting my GC?

Hi,

Me and my wife went to India and I came back one week back with my ex employer visa without any problem,I had to show only the I-797 for the current company where I am working. My wife she is still in India coming back to US in September.

I am sending my I-797 original to her in the mail.

My concern is will the immigration officer ask her for my I-797 approval or her I-797 approval ( she is on H4). We don't have an I-797 approval for her as my H1 was applied before we got married.My current H1 is expiring on Jan 19th 2009 so we applied for extension for both of us and got the approvals but its only valid from Jan 19th 2009.

Any replies greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Do you think the lottery will take place for 2010 year H-1B filing?

zero I think...
H1 filing follows the general employment scene, and with the current employment levels, and the relatively low levels of recovery being seen so far, the chance of a lottery seems almost nil....
H1s for last year ran out just last week, why would 65k cases show up within a day just 3 months later?
However I dont expect it to last till December 2010 like it did this year. Employment is going to slowly improve going forward, TARP H1 hiring restrictons dont apply to many banks...

Hi All,

Please share your experience. This is quite urgent. My H1B(8+ year) is expiring, and my company is willing to file H1B with Engg manager role. My previous H1B or extension was files for software engineer. My GC(EB2) is filed as Software engineer, with PD as Jan 2006.

Questions
1) Now is it ok to file H1B with new title? What if H1B gets rejected?
2) How does this title change affect GC? Can the GC be cancelled because the title has changed or H1B gets rejected? The engg manager role is similar to software engneer role, except people responsiblities.
3) If the H1B gets accepted, then is there still a danger to GC? Do they verify GC papers before approving H1B?

Thank you, Raja

The Congress So Far (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/08/04/AR2007080401272.html) An ugly finish to a rocky start, August 5, 2007

FORGET ABOUT November's bipartisan promises of civility and cooperation in Congress. At the time they seemed overly optimistic. Nonetheless, it is hard to believe that relations could have deteriorated so far so fast -- both between the new Democratic majority and congressional Republicans and between Democratic lawmakers and President Bush.

Thursday's late-night rumble on the House floor, when a vote was gaveled to what Democrats acknowledge was a premature close, epitomized the ugliness that has overtaken the entire legislative process. In the end, the 110th Congress headed for its August recess with civility in shreds and achievements sparse. Indeed, the only thing that might make August look pleasant is September, when lawmakers will return to resume the acrimonious debate over Iraq policy and confront the looming end of the fiscal year with spending bills unpassed and presidential vetoes in the offing.

There have been scraps of good news from the first seven months. Lawmakers managed to see two of their priorities become law: an increase in the minimum wage and passage of the recommendations of the Sept. 11 commission. Another major achievement, a lobbying and ethics reform bill that will make important changes in the way Washington does business, is awaiting Mr. Bush's signature. Both chambers passed versions of a measure to extend the health insurance program for children in low-income families.

But many other Democratic priorities -- and a big presidential one, immigration reform -- were snarled in the Senate. The 60-vote majority needed to overcome a filibuster proved to be as big an impediment for majority Democrats as the Democrats had made it when Republicans held power. The failure of immigration reform, of which there had been at least a hope of bipartisan achievement, was a particularly low note. Meanwhile, Democrats in both chambers chose to spend countless hours mired in a fruitless effort to compel an "end" to the war in Iraq.

One of the most disappointing recent developments has been the administration's apparent decision, in the aftermath of the immigration bill's failure, that there was not much to be gained from working with this Congress -- and something to gained by taking it on. This new belligerence has manifested itself in a blizzard of veto threats -- Democrats counted up 31 between May 1 and Aug. 1 -- the most regrettable of which involves the children's health insurance bill.

In the final hours before recess, it was hard to know which was more shameful: the administration's use of the looming vacation to bully Democrats into accepting its overbroad rewrite of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act or Democrats' spinelessness in caving to this strong-arming.

On the House side, a major disappointment was the failure of Democrats to live up to their pledge to treat the new Republican minority better than Democrats were treated when Republicans held power. Democrats promised a new, more open House, with adequate time for members to digest complex legislation and ample opportunity for the minority to offer amendments on the floor; instead, they, too, often used the same hardball tactics to muscle through legislation that Republicans had employed. That might have been understandable in the Democrats' "first 100 hours" that the new Congress was in session, but it is unfortunate that it persisted until the recess. That's no way to do business, and Democrats know it.

Do you have a work permit to enter Canada. A Business visa is not good enough?
Re entry to US every week is going to get increasingly trickier.
I am inclined to let this pass.This is just my opinion. Get professional advice and keep this forum updated with your decision.

No. You can file two I-140 petitions from the same employer and your approved H-1B for three years is not in trouble. I don't blame you for your deepest concern in this issue, as USCIS made each and everyone of us so concerned about our every walk of our life.

I have no LUD at all for my 1-140 which was approved 6 months back. The status message still stays "...processing..." !!
So do not bother much about the online statuses and LUDs.

Hi giveit,

The background is easy, find a picture that you like, add it to a layer temporarily, draw over the main areas ie doors walls windows etc then go back and fil in those areas with colour, then delete the layer with the pic on.

As for the man walking its a bit more complicated, I may be able to help out, Which direction is he walking ie Diagonally, vertically,
up, down etc.

Let me know and i'll see what I can do.

One of my friends was in the same boat as yours and he said YES. No problem in visa issuance. And as per my friend, the officer already knew that he was attending school. I think the schools report all enrollment to USCIS.

Also my wife went for visa interview recently. She is on H4 and she also said yes to Q33.

Hope this helps.
