Hello,
I have been living in the USA for the last 5 years going to school with a F1 Visa. I have a Bachelor Degree in Art and a Master Degree in Business. I am currently living in New York City. I plan to work as a Real Estate agent through my OPT. Can I qualify for a green card?
in which class real estate agent falls into, EB1, EB2, EB3 or EB4???
Thank You for your time.

I am reading "CIR is dead" from logiclife. I have not read this anywhere? Is this officially declared? If not, pls edit this as I do not want IV member to get caught on this news break.
Everyone who is frustrated: please have some restraint.
Shouting out, and making fun of lawmakers does not behoove us if we are working with their offices.
Imaigine this: We go into a lawmaker's office (which we do quite often even now, even tho CIR is dead) and explain who we are, our situation, retrogression, etc. etc. and then the staff comes to us and says: By the way, your website has said "This" about my boss, congressman XYZ.
What do you think we are going to say to them? That we practice first amendment rights on our forums where we openly trash you, and the next morning, we walk into your office and ask for provisions and legislations to help us????
First amendment is great to have when you need to rebel, protest and outright oppose someone. Not when you are looking to work with someone and advocate. There is a huge difference between advocacy and protest.
So legal, others, while it provides a great deal of relief to lash out at congressmen, or media, (I've done my share of mistakes in this regard, so I know) try to do it in a way that it doesnt make us look like fools when we go to their office asking for favors/provisions.

The per country limit for countries is 7% and for dependency is 2% . I am not sure what the exact definition of dependency is. The FAM manual lists dependencies. Greenland is listed as a dependency.
Greenland became an integral part of the Kingdom of Denmark in 1953.
Greenland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenland)
FAM Manual
Powered by Google Docs (http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:duOg7IY_8mcJ:www.state.gov/documents/organization/87529.pdf+FAM+dependent+area&hl=en&gl=us&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEESg0NHOav5w3YDyGRuQ-5l8cUKd7K2x0xOpgUYuc2NMh4tdd3NmeDc4St58eMcS1B8SNt1 MNP82kcQSARNnTKrvmZZUV5yKuQ9_TDvjjfsQNfLurfQ1SfFFA 18ETbPO8Qp6lJbtM&sig=AHIEtbQOfqJ345B3_l9i_ta2BfQz-cTCTg)
If Greenland which is a part of Denmark can be listed as a dependecy be classified as dependencies and given their 2% share each why cannot Union Territories of India i.e. Union Territories:
Andaman and Nicobar Islands
Chandigarh
Dadra and Nagar Haveli
Daman and Diu
Lakshadweep
National Capital Territory of Delhi
Puducherry
Additional Research: Goa and Pondicherry have been removed. Can somebody help me with the official UN docs?

Union Territories - Profile - Know India: National Portal of India (http://india.gov.in/knowindia/union_territories.php)
So are scotland, wales considered dependencies? Kashmiris can get passport from Pakistan if they want. Who would give passports to Hyderabadis?
Goa and Pondicherry are states now.
It is difficult without knowing the meaning of dependencies and how it is defined.

I have seen people talking about getting approvals with misdemeanors, but each case may be different. Murthy.com forums has a special section for people dealing with misdemeanor issues and have gone through the process, may be you will get some more tips about preparing for the interview there.

Hi All:
Question: I have a I-140 PD Sept 2005 - EB-3, And completed 4.5 years (6year end oin July 2008) on H1. I changed the job in Jan, 2007 and using the approved I-140- 3 year H1 Ext rule, I received my extention for 3 year until 2010. Now my new employer des not want to file for greencard for 1 year. meanwhile if my old employer withdraws my I-140 what would happen in this case, if I start my LC application in jan 2008.
There is technically no link between the extended H1 and the Labor / I140 approval, if you have any labor application pending for more than 1 year OR a Approved 140 at the time of next renewal you are fine. Here is why i say that, one of my co worker had a labor application filed in 2001 and he completed his 6 years in 2004 (mid year), he got his H1 extended (7th year) based on the pending application. Since the labor application was taking for ever (it was complicated, it was filed in RIR and later USCIS changed it to regular and stuff like that) our company filed a new one in 2004 Jan from a different location. Some time in late 2005 his original Labor application got denied and his H1 was up for another renewal (8th year) in 2005 technically it sounded like a big problem but the company lawyers used the second labor application which was filed in 2004 (while he was in his 6th year, after completing 5 years) which was pending for more than 1 year by mid 2005 and he got extensions, infact he has got another (9th year ) and is currently up for the 10th year extension ..... no Issues.
Please consult with a good Lawyer and confirm the same

As valid an argument it may be, buying a house as a bargaining tactic will create a lot of bad publicity and would be counter-productive. I think if we want to do gandhigiri, lets send flowers to Senator Grassley. If you want to make an impact, do the unusual.
Imagine how media will report something like that. Even when Grassley is dead against EB people, those very same people are sending flowers to him, not asking for anything, not demanding anything, just respectfully reminding him that not all immigrants are bad, some are really instrumental to making this country great.
We should write a simple, short, positive, and respectful message without sarcasm and without asking for anything. Instead of saying how we can be helpful *if* we have a green card, lets just focus on how we are already a positive contribution to American economy and national interest despite the clouds of uncertainty. Some things are better left unsaid to get the message across. Instead of us saying it, let the media report it - imagine how much more their contribution could be if they had green card.
Here are some suggestions for short messages -
I am a physician with NIW working in town/area which is medically under served. I am not taking away any American jobs.
I am foreign but not cheap. I earn xxx. My income is x% above average wage in my profession; x% above the higher end of prevailing wage standards set by DOL. In addition, my employer is paying 10-20K in immigration costs, some of which goes to train more Americans in STEM.
I am doing research in some field of humanitarian or national interest. e.g. bio medicine, green technologies, etc.

Your priority date should be prior to cutoff date in visa bulletin to file a 485.
Also...your priority date should be prior to cutoff date in visa bulletin for you to get final approval (visa number and green card).
The administrative processing (FP/NameCheck etc) continue if the cutoff date retrogresses after one has filed 485 but the final approval will not happen untill your PD is greater than cutoff date in visa bulletin.
I have applied for my 485 in July because then the PD's were current. Now the PD's are moved back . Does that i will get my GC delayed too. Does the processing of 485 is related to PD's . I thought the PD's are only related to the dates when you can apply for 485 not processing. Correct me if i am wrong.if PD's are also related to getting GC's then what the I-485 processing dates?

hi boney. excellent advice so far. i'll just add that you should also take into account how one camera "feels" in your hands vs. another. you might use that as a tie-breaker or a major decision point in your purchase. but luckily for us most of the manufacturers have a different feel, including grip sizes, curves, location and operation of the controls, etc.

I am not getting any appointment in June with any doctor within 60 miles from my place. So I took an appointment with a doc 70+ miles away for end of june. The only problem is I need to go twice 70 miles one way. The clinic suggested I do the blood work in nearby county clinic, but the county clinic wants 7-10 days to get results of blood work. I asked them for HIV and Sephallius test to be done. I already got TB Skin test(tested negative) done at county clinic.
Can someone please tell what all blood tests need to be done, so I can check if any other doctor can do the blood work and I can save one 70 mile trip . Thanks.

EB3 with PD June 2001 and I-485 was applied with RD of Oct 2002.
The online case tracking system has the status of case received and pending
Meanwhile, a call to USCIS revealed about the I-485 denial in Nov, 2005.
The I-485 was denied in Nov 2005 and we were not notified by USCIS and my attorney also did not get any denial notice.
How can the case be denied with out any notice? Do we have precedence on this level by USCIS?
I did a FP appt in Jan 2006 though.
I have been asked to refile I-485 now.

I have filed for EAD & AP by mail. AP got approved before EAD and the approval was put in the mail. While waiting to receive AP approval, EAD got approved and the approval was put in the mail.
I have received the EAD card and not the AP approval so far. Its been about 30 days since the AP approval was put in the mail.
I called couple of times to see if they can re-send it. Both the times they said, if you have not moved since you applied the petition and has not received the approval then you should re-file all over.
How far is this correct?
Has anyone faced this kind of stuff???
Thanks

Hello Attorney,
My family and I fortunately got the green cards this week after a long wait. But the company where I have been working since
2001 is not doing well due to cash flow issues. Note that I never changed company since I came to the US in 2001. I have not been paid salary for the last few months. I am the last employee of the company and seems like this company may go bankrupt soon.
Luckily my wife works as Independent Contractor (Not a full time employee) and I have a part time business which are supporting my family for the last few months. My business is related to finance and investments which is different from the GC approved job profile.
Can you please help me by answering following questions.
1) What are the precautions I should take to protect my green card?
2) Can I leave the present company and start my business by forming an LLC?
3) My business is online based so I can work from my birth country India for a few months. Can I visit India for a few months until my business is fully developed?
4) Since my business is different from the GC approved job profile, will it cause any difficulty during citizenship process?
5) A friend on the forum told that it may be required to work in your labor certified job (even with diff employer) for 6 months. Can I go to India for 6 or 7 months by taking leave from the same company ( i.e without leaving the company) ? I can manage with my part time business income during this time. In this case, just working for the same job profile is sufficient or do we need to show any pay stubs (or w-2) during citizenship process?
6) Can I take re-entry permit and develop my business from India for a year and come back to the US after 1 year?
Thanks for your help in advance
If you are out of the country for six months...you will lose your GC. Dont do that mistake.

Brasil,
I think after reading your case, it is just a standard operating procedure. Not sure why you thought of it as being punished unless some dmv official behaved unprofessionally or rudely with you . I suggest you wait for sometime and you will definitely get your license renewed back.
All the best :)
Getting the driver's license is not the problem, I know it will come. Problem here is why I cannot drive outside SC for up to 60 days waiting for the DL card? Remember I've to surrender my old SC license. This is serious limitation to my work, e.g. I need to go to Atlanta on 08/19 and I cannot drive there.
In September I will go to Italy, what if I don’t get my DL till then?
And you say “Not sure why you thought of it as being punished”
This is ridiculous
