Back log elimination..
I took Infopass to enquire about my name check. I even showed the print out paper that says about the 180 day rule after initiating the name check process.
My name check is initiated in OCT 2007 still pending stuck in name check. My pd is current my processing days rule is applicable. My RD is July 2 nd 2007 at Texas.
The office was repeatedly saying that FBI has given them FEB 2009 as time limit on clearing the Name check. The officer doesn't care about the Aytes 180 day rule.
The officer told they are sticking with the FBI Time Frame and not with the 180 day rule b'cause they need to follow the FIFO for the already pending cases on Name check for years ... say for 3 yrs.

Dear All ,
I recently got my I-140 approved, got our(me and spouse) EAD and AP too.Now what I am wondering is that
1.Am I still on H1 status or the status now becomes EAD ?
2. If my H1 still holds good then should I go back to India to get my fresh H1 stamping as it will expire november next year or should I go for one year H1 extensions(as I heard from friends ) till I get the GC ?
3. Is there any stipulated time limit within which my wife has to apply for her SSN( we have not yet applied for it. )
4. My passport is going to expire on December next year. Do I need to go to India for renewal or it can be done from here itself. If it can be done from here itself then when is the earliest to start that process ?( I will be happy if u could send some links that will guide me ).
Thank you very much in advance.

Thank you for clarifying snathan. The company will definitely not do anything illegal, in fact it is the legality that is creating challenges. One other question came up today. If a qualified candidates applies for the job (PERM), does the company have to accept the candidate and let me go? All of these questions did not come up while filing EB3 but they are now concerned.
I assume that since you are currently in EB3, your current job description is different from the job description for which your company (if they agree) will initiate the EB2 PERM process for. Also, the EB2 PERM process will be for "future employment" for the different job position than the one you currently hold (I am assuming this, in the absence of any other data), so they might not need to let you go, if they get any responses.
If they get any responses to the EB2 advertisement, they will have to consider those applicants and provide them the same opportunity and diligence that they would to anyone applying for that position. If they do not find any of the applicants suitable for the position, they must have very strong and valid reasons why they cannot hire any of the respondents. Only in case they are unable to hire anyone of the respondents, can they even continue with the labor certification filing.
Also, many employers are fairly certain that they will get many responses to job advertisements and hence they do not want to go through the process for hiring a lawyer etc. etc. etc. and initiating the labor certification process for GC, when they can directly hire someone from the market.

The PD for my GC application is Dec 10, 2001. I filed under EB3 category and my chargeability is India. Going by the backlog that we are currently experiencing for EB3, is it worth filing for an upgrade of the GC application from EB3 to EB2 based purely on timelines for both EB3 and EB2?

Q. How do I make a complaint against my attorney or representative?
A. If the complaint concerns the conduct of an attorney or representative in a matter before the Immigration Court, BIA, or DHS, you may complete a Form EOIR-44, �Immigration Practitioner Complaint Form� but it is not required. You may write your own complaint statement or letter. This statement or letter must include.
Your name and address,
The attorney�s or representative�s name and address,
An explanation of the circumstances and details of your complaint, and
Your signature.
Along with your Form EOIR-44 or your own complaint statement or letter, you may also submit supporting documents and information, such as:
Correspondence between you and your attorney or representative,
Documents concerning the underlying immigration case (including the case name and number), and
Copies of filings in connection with the case.
Neither EOIR nor DHS can accept complaints over the telephone.

Hi,
I am having issues with my Immigration Attorney. I had asked him to initiate
enquiry about my 485 status about 3 times over the past 2 years and each time he replied via email saying he has sent the enquiry. he usually is very flaky and at times even lies or avoids my calls and emails. I am paying for his
service and not my company.
In nay case, I needed those documents he says he sent as enquiry for my records. When I ask for it, he says he will send it but is just not sending it despite about 10 follow ups over the last 3 months. He says he will send it.I suspect he never initiated the enquiry and just lied to me. So now he is in soup.
He has screwed me and others up like this several times. I really want to refer him to ethics tribunal or something like that. What are my options ? I have been very frustrated with him for the last several years.
Please suggest.

Gator,
I would be positive that since RFE wasnt answered on time, USCIS knows that it denied it very probably only on the fact that RFE wasnt answered. Now if you MTR using a decent attorney, then there is a good chance that you will get approved. Make sure you have all documentation in place. Refer to "I-140 denied, urgent help, please" forum also in immigration.com's site.
485 can be reinstated if I140 is approved again. There are cases to get MTR cleared in less than a month.
I can imagine how it feels, but I am sure you have a chance. Go to a big law firm and a good attorney.
Sri.

I could have written this! I too am flummoxed by seeing this on my e-filed AP application. I think its pre-decision activity but I could be wrong. Anyone?
Last week I e-filed my AP (I-131) renewal and sent documents to TSC. Soft LUD today, it is in "Testing and Interview� stage.
Is this stage generally expected for renewal of AP? I am not sure why the online message says "request for appointment reschedule" although my application is to renew AP.
Did any one go through this process before? pls share your experience.
Here is the status from the website
Testing and Interview
We have received your request to have your appointment rescheduled. This case is being processed at our TEXAS SERVICE CENTER location. You will be notified by mail if the appointment is rescheduled, when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

Hi Morchu,
Thanks for you reply.
Yes you replied to my question in other Thread... but you thought I did't exhausted my 6 years...
But Iam already in 7th year. Based on my situation I want to make sure whether Iam eligible or not for applying one more H1 while other (H1 appeal is pending). So I posted my request here too.
Thanks again Morchu for your responses.
Morchu's suggestion is a very good one. You file for a premium H1 with all the documentation and new approved I140. Can you share why your previous 485 was rejected?
-cheers
kris

That is my opinion. I may be wrong. I was always under the impression with my 2 cent of brain that 7% of ( Familiy Based+ Emplyment Based ) will be given to each state.
I try to search every where for clarification. I could not find it. However the language is not clear in the law which states that 7% of 140,000 will be alloted to each state during the fiscal year.
Can some one share there light on it please.

Folks,
How are the taxi charges from Chennia airport to the town or station ? Do the drivers charge whatever they feel like or is it controlled?
My parents are leaving back from the US and will be landing in Chennai, they are not from Chennai....so not sure if I should try to book a taxi before hand...or the charges are controlled ? Also, do they have something like pre-paid taxi ?
The flight (emirates) lands at 3 or 4 am.
Also, any recomendations for Hotels ? Ideally near the railway station.
Thanks in Advance !!

It is not a Valid Birth Certificate for USCIS
Just an FYI, I applied my wife's I-485 with the Birth Certificate issued by Indian Embassy in Houston, TX....I went there personally and got it issued the same day...They issue it based on the DOB in your passport...Then later I got her BC done from the local municipality along with affidavits from her parents...I sent them to my attorney and he said he will only send them to USCIS if they send a RFE asking for the same.....He said its of no use to mail them without an RFE as they will lose them.....My PD is EB-3 India Nov 2003, and I haven't received any RFE so far regarding her BC...

have you considered asking your client to hire you effective jan 20, but take unpaid leave until jan 25 or whenever they are ready to hire you?
That would have worked if the Client had already finished the hiring process and filed for my extension b4 my I-94 expires on Jan 20... I am yet to appear for the interview, it is just that i have some strong references (and they have multiple openings) so I have extremely good chances of getting hired ... so, no, this idea won't work :(... Jan 25th was just a imaginary date that i gave... the hiring process may take couple weeks more than that (yup, unfortunately, it's that slow) ... I was just trying to find out what are my options after Jan 20... would I be just stuck with this staffing company or could I have the Client file for my extension... if it is legally not possible then I might as well just forget about this opportunity :(

I read dailykos.com, a liberal blog site, often. Recently, there has been a spate of postings there that are anti H-1B and anti high tech immigration. One example, from today, is: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/3/28/82450/4208. I have been posting comments as cacophonix.
dailykos.com is the most powerful and most popular liberal blog. Opinion that gets set there is influential with Democratic legislators. There is significant support there for high-tech immigration, but I think the tide could easily turn.
I need help from fellow IVers in refuting such ridiculous diaries as the one above. Please register and follow developments there, and please post responses when these issues come up.
I can't stress this enough: dailykos has a strict trolling/abuse policy. If you lose your cool and start abusing, you will get banned in a flash. So please be courteous.
You have indeed done an amazing job in totally making that diary hopeless.
Kudos to you for doing that and many thanks for defending this community on that site.

Hi Gurus,
I want to switch my employer after my I140 gets approved. I may not be able to apply for I485 because of the Retrogression.
I have read somewhere that the priority date can be retained by the beneficiary once I140 is approved. Even though I restart the entire process from LC application, I can still hold the old priority date.
Are there any catches in this rule.
Please advise me.
I am no guru, but my understanding is that the old employer should not revoke/withdraw your I-140 AND he should not do fishy business with the LC itself that the I-140 is based upon, meaning should not substitue your approved labor with someone else. (Knowing most desi consultancies (if you belong to one), i am pretty sure, he will try to sell the old approved LC).
