Any updates on the RFE? wish you have solved problem. Realy want to hear about it cause I am in the same hot water now.
Friends,
This is my first post.Any inputs would be highly appreciated.
My PD is jun 2005 (EB3) and i submitted my AOS in jul 2007. I got laid
off from my company on March 13 2009.My company lawyer told me that
they wont send anything about my GC application but they will have to
send notification revoking my H1B to USCIS as per the law. I guess
this could have triggered my RFE. I applied for EAD immediately as an
AOS applicant and got it on march 31 2009 ( for 2 years)
I recently got an RFE asking me to re-submit G-325A ,Current
Employment verification letter and proof of employment after march 13
2009 ( this could be my EAD,I-797C for EAD or I-94: further confirms
my suspicion about revoked H1B triggering RFE). Right now I don't
have a job and it doesn't look like i will get any before may 31st
2009 (the deadline for answering the RFE). What are my options?Here is
what I read and thought
Option 1:I have an EVL from my last company dated march 2 2009.Can I
send that ?In my G-325A I would though need to mention the exact dates
with no present employment.Can it lead to automatic denial and make me
illegal? Should this be an option? My assumption here is that the RFE
is just to complete the documentation and that the case will be
adjudicated when my date becomes current.Before that I should be able
to get a job and send the paperwork.
Option 2:I also read on Internet that I can send a future intent of
employment letter/good faith letter from a consultant/company saying that they will hire me in future. Does this or can this work? If so what could the
possible language of that be? This can give me time till my date
becomes current (which should be good enough to find a new job) .
Option 3:I talked to a consultant and he is ready to give me a EVL .
For this he would need to put me on his payroll ( obviously at a big
cost) .He said that i would have to be on his payroll for atleast 3
months( so that he is safe).This way i get EVL.Cost is too much and difficult since my income is current not there .
I really don't know anything beyond this. I would really appreciate
your opinions on the feasibility of these options or any other ones
that might exist. Right now I am lost and dont know what works best
for me.
To maintain my status is filing COS(I-539 ) for B2 (tourist) a good option?
Thanks and really appreciate any input.

If they dont have the option of having old one till Aug 17th, then they made mistake as usual. They will pull this new one down tomorrow or later or they will keep the old one in parallel with instructions for the July beneficiaries.
Do not worry much. We know how USCIS works.

Dear Fellow IVians
quick update: I received the receipt notices today for EAD Renewal by mail. can't believe it, but truly received for myself and my wife.
Big question is
1.Mine is having case number as LIN08801XXXXX which is fine, because my entire GC process since past 5 years is in Nebraska Service Center. I'm the primary applicant
2.But wife's case number is different, which is NSC08801XXXXX and clearly mentioned in the notice that her case is with national benefits center, Lee's summit MO.( By the way we live in Missouri)
The entries for "Class requested" is shown as C09 in both cases, which i believe correct.
Help:
Has anybody received like this before? if it's normal, i'm not worried
If not, any clues about next steps like do i need to call somebody or call Nebraska ??? a bit worried. any help ???????
Thanks in advance
Satya
Efiling EAD does not cause LUD on I-485. Guess something else.

Among other things, one important change for H1-b program would be to make H1-B transfer easier for folks that are laid off or had to resign abruptly due to various reasons by providing some legal leg room to land a new job. The current rule for laid off / abruptly resigning people is to pack up and leave the very next day of separation for their country of origin and start the H1B process again if they need to maintain a clean legal record. That is not always pracitcally possible due to ticket availability, disposing of residence lease etc. This is very much acknowledged by USCIS by overlooking some minor gaps between employments for H1-B transfer. So provision of some gap (60 days?) between job changes for H1B transfer will provide some legal/legislative back-up to the procedures currently being followed by USCIS as a matter of practicality.

What do you mean by 4 part payments?
Here is the scenario
Lets say I have Rs 100,000 principal loan and I can make 4 payments of Rs 22,000 (4X22,000= 88,000) and tells ICICI bank to span rest of Rs. 12,000 (100,000-88,000=12000) in 13 EMI.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Also note - you are allowed only 4 part payments in a year. Especially with ICICI bank. So plan carefully. That way you are left with only 13 EMI's with a smaller amount.

I have H1 approval I-797 with me (received in last year quota) and H4 approval (which was applied before applying H1). Now I have a family emergency back home. I have to travel asap. My current H4 stamp in the passport is expired. So I have to go for stamping, either it be using H1 or using H4. Since I am unemployed at present I can't use H1 for stamping. If I come back on H4, what will happen to my H1 status? Will it be still valid to accept an employment or becomes void.
Please share your thoughts...
Thanks
You are in H-1 status now as you applied for COS from H4 to H-1. So I am not sure if going for H4 stamping is still an option for you. I will let others weighin on this one.
Do you have AP instead? You can always come back on AP, doing so will not invalidate your H-1

I am not sure about the voting schedule but the immigration bill will be debated in the Senate during the last two weeks of May.
I read this in USA Today:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has set aside the last two weeks of May for debate on an immigration bill; House Democrats hope to act before the August recess.

How many in this forum are yet to file AOS?
Hello Members,
I am starting this thread to get idea on how many new members on this forum who didnot file for I 485 during July 2007. Numbers can give us some idea on future campaign etc.. Please submit your answer and keep this poll on top of all threads for few months.

From my lawyer:
We are being told that they are holding all of them for now. We are unsure
where this will land because of congressional pressure and lawsuits that
will be filed. We are still waiting to get more answers about what
immigration plans to do.

Texas Processing Center shows August 11,2010 for
Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status Employment-based adjustment applications
I am thinking it may take 6-7 months or am I wrongly interpreting this information posted online....

If the cause of wobble on your tripod is the effect of you touching the camera to change the settings, you may want to try the auto-bracketing [although if you have a P&S type camera, it may not have auto-bracketing], which takes three (or five) shots with varying levels of under/over exposure [you can select how much on each photo, and adjust where you start from by adjusting the overall exposure compensation, so if you set +/-1 stop and then start with +1, you get 0, +1 and +2 exposures of the same subject, taken in sequence by the camera...]

Why waste time of such hypothetical issues when we can put this effort in something prodcutive. "Divide and Rule" never works.
Always "united we Stand" - hum hai Hindustani.

If unity is important, how about uniting Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka into one 'United States of India'. Lot of ROW from these countries will protest. :)

I suggest that IV be even concerned about ppl in the pre-application stage like myself. I havent even filed a labor yet as I have no employer (am a PhD student.) I would like IV to take up issues that concern PhD students, for e.g. the current proposals in the PACE bill that appear to exclude current PhD students (as opposed to future "F-4" PhD students) from automatic AOS benefits 1 year after graduation. This is a large constituency who can be mobilized for IV if IV decides to pursuse this. It is actually a very commonsense amendment to PACE that can be included in the bill if the right people are informed about it. I have drafted a very detailed letter and can make it available here.

Thanks ksircar;
Want to explore on Caribbean options too. However a question is how can we file for Advance Parole as it requires the applicant to be in US at the time of application, otherwise AOS gets invalid. And if at all we choose her to be here for AP application, it would hinder the education.
Thanks
Venu
AP remains valid for one year and you need to apply for AP in such a way so that for AP renewal your daughter will be in US during vacation etc. In the worst case, she has to fly from Caribbean to Miami (or any nearest US port) just to apply for AP and go back. These are the hassels you need to overcome if you want to send your daughter to MED school without a GC. I did the same with my daughter. You can PM me if you want to discuss in detail.
Good luck.

Same with my case any guesses are welcome.
Focus on the core issues (if you care), not on extraneous stuff. For petes sake, it is already approved, seems like most of us are only focussed on our own backs or riding on others.
