We should set up a webfax/email for all members to be sent to CNN and FOX like the ones we setup for the senators.
Any comments from Core team ?
Once the Core team drafts a letter we can send that....

I thought the OP was making a case for getting his question answered.. that doesn't mean the case is necessarily true now.
And I think if you read further down, the op himself said he didn't get his GC yet, but his question was "what if?"...... guys read before you post ;)

iv heard that it's taking long for extensions. some people I know of are waiting for over 3-4 months - although for you it seem to have taken even longer. If i were you - I would get it upgraded to premium. My extension got filed under premium and I got my approval notice in 15 days (as usual).

It appears to me that we should file all I-485 applications in July. Even if the advantage is illusory or marginal, it may be a good idea to file. If your application is ready to go, it should be filed. Regards. Rajiv.

Hi All,
Could any please provide some insight about the companies "Unemployment Wage report" for the state of California?
This is the only query as stated in the 221(g) form got from Chennai embassy for your reference.
"State Unemployment Wage Reports, showing all wages paid to each employee in the state, for the past two quarters as filed to State of California (This should not be payroll reports, but the actual forms filed to the State authorities listing each employee and wages paid during the quarter.)"
Could you please provide me the exact form name and number to submit through the dropbox. Also some explanation if possible on how the form will look like in order to track it down?
Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.
Happy Holidays!
All the very best to all of you.
Thanks & Regards,

Well, you don't really have a choice now, do you? If she stays on in the US, she will extend her invalid status period. She cannot apply for a COS to H4 in the US because she doesn't have paystubs. Her only option is to go to India and get an H4 stamped and pronto. As to denial, it's all in the visa officer's hands.

Hello Friends,
My current AP expires on 2/18/11. My PD (EB-2) has been current since Sept 2010 but no sign of GC yet. I would like to renew my AP and have decided to file myself Vs using the attorney. Has anybody used the e-filing option OR is it better to send in a hard copy of the application.?
If somebody can kindly direct me to the appropriate links on IV for folks who have filed themselves - i would greatly appreciate that. Any advice on supporting documents, etc. would be really helpful.
Thanks!

I have a follow-up question: Can the experience gained with the current Employer be used as basis for the EB2?
The cost varies, depending on the attorney fees and what advertising is done. Generally, it would probably cost $6000 - $12,000 for PERM. The employer must pay this, you cannot pay any of it.

can i apply one more I-140 , and what will be my case in this situation
If you tranfer ur H1 to new employer, i think u need to start green card process from the beginning. your old approved labor no longer valid and also u can not port ur PD.
If you I-140 approved (then I dont think u will do H1 transfer), still same process above but I think u can port your PD.
But like other members suggested, please consult attorney.

Since you have created this thread in Ask an attorney, I have say this.....
I am not an attorney...its better to contact a good immigration lawyer to discuss your options.

Hi,
I looking for porting my approved EB3 labor and 140 to EB2. Here are my details:
My qualification: Diploma in electronics and communication Engg in India
(3 years diploma after 10th)
Years of experience: Since 1991 in IT (About 20 YRs)
Green card process: EB3 Approved labor and 140.
Situation: When I contacted one of the university in USA they informed me that I can
do the Masters instead of BS online degree.
My question1: Will I be eligible to file my EB2 if I do Masters without doing BS?
My question 2: Is MS from International Technological University (http://www.ITU.EDU) is accepted bu USCIS for Immigration purpose?
Thanks in advance

If you really think about it, it is a fair business price. Remember, the lawyer gets all his money by billing clients like you. He has to figure in his establishment costs such as rent, employee salaries, insurance, etc. Add to that the unpredictability of future business (e.g., if he gets work only for 10 days of the month, he still has to pay salaries to staff for the whole month), taxes (including soc. security, medicare, etc. that he has to pay for himself and for staff) and the risk of liability (e.g. what if you sue for malpractice?) and you get the high price.
Of course, it is a market economy, and people can always choose a better and cheaper source for the service. But at some point you will hit bottom, below which the business will be a loss maker, and this bottom will still be high for many!
$320 an hr!
His 'RFE response' charges were $450!
go figure...
lotsa people are making money out of the s*ituation we are in!

All Guru's
My situation is little different,
I filed my GC from comapany A (with approved I140 ...so far i received all receipts+ EAD+AP), I am working for Company B as a consultant. Now the company B is willing to give me an offer, Since they know my situation they are agreed upon waiting till 180 days. But they are planning giving me offer 181 day. They cant wait longer than that.
But my fear is I don't have copy of my approved I140 with me. I heard from my collegue who works for my Company (A) provides a I140 copy only if they terminate me from the employment (like after certain period on bench - 15days). This is where I am getting nervous. I want to take the employment with Company B using EAD. But I have to be on Bench with company A (H1B) inorder to get my copy of I140.
I have only 2 options:
1) Take the Company B offer and Remain on the Bench for Company A at the same time for certain period to get the I140 copy. - Can I do this because I will be getting pay from New Employer (EAD) and old Employer (H1B) - Does this trigger any issue in future - Is this over lap (15 days) is OK
2) Do not take the Company B offer (but this is very good offer)
Please Guru's if any body gone through this situation please share your thoughts OR Any body please advice. Thanks in Advance
Dont require copy of 140 to invoke AC21 only proof of AOS is required i.e 485 Recipt Notice (even a copy would do).
Copy of 140 is required incase of date porting i.e joined a new employer who is willing to sponsor GC and you would like to keep you PD from a previous application.
Hope this clarifies !!!

There is nothing wrong in asking but the attorney has no right to reveal the information to you although some do. Did you try to make that request through your employer?
I think some members requested a copy of 140 approval notice from USCIS by filing a freedom of information request. Not sure how though.
