Its complicated and gray area, I haven't seen any success from anybody yet.:confused:
There are two ways of porting older priority date
#1 if your old PD is stuck in backlog center, file a new perm labor with exact same wordings( same category too ), this is well documented.
#2 If you have an approved labor(can be substituted also) and approved I-140, then file a new labor with any employer under any category(eb2 in your case). Once labor is approved, at the time of filling new I-140, you need to specify that you want to port priority date of previously approved I-140. Specify relavent memos too, try finding attorney who knows or have done this atleast once :D
"EB3 - Labor filed - Aug, 2004 - BackLogged - Philadelphia - 45 day letter - Replied"
priority date from above labor can only be captured if it gets approved and employer files and get I-140 approval for this labor, and then you go ahead and file a new I-140 for your already approved EB2 specifying need to recapture old PD.
This is all from top of my head w/o having any degree in relavent field, please talk to attorney before taking any action blah blah blah.......

Now that it is 180 days Since Jul 2nd and some of us are thinking about AC21. Some are invoking AC21 and sending the documentation as soon as they change jobs and others are thinking of not informing the CIS (AFAIK Informing CIS is not mandatory as per AC21).
A friend of mine changed jobs 3 times after filing I485 never informing the CIS and got his GC without any RFE. He has the luxury of the lawyer who originally filed the I485 work with him and the company never revoked I140(because they laid him off). Another friend sent the documentation about invocation of AC21 and got RFE.
It is expressed in other related threads to start a poll so that we can have an idea of trends in AC21 usage.
This is a simple poll.
PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE ONLY IF YOU HAD ALREADY CHANGED THE JOB. DON'T VOTE IF YOU ARE JUST THINKING OF CHANGING THE JOB BUT DID NOT CHANGE YET.

Hi guys,
My daughter is in india and she might be in india beyond 6 months. She has valid visa until next year. What is the procedure to extend stay in india? Please help. I know this is not the proper forum for US citizens. But please provide me details if somebody already done this.

Your Priority date seems to be Dec 2005 and if i remember correctly USCIS had a memo to complete all Background Check in 6 Months so yours should have been over long time ago.
But Again I am not a expert here and could be wrong, EXPERTS please advise
well...they had my finger prints on July 28th..so they started FRESH checks all over..
Which means, by the time they complete checks, PD will retrogress and then when PD becomes current they start again.
I think I may have wasted my career by not grabbing opportunities that came to me but waiting for GC to approved..I hope not to repent a lot later :mad:

my company lawyer did not ask for any tax returns or w2 forms .. Should they be submitted as part of "initial evidence"
Tax returns are not part of "initial evidence". You have to provide them if asked by the USCIS.
BTW, the IRS will mail you tax transcripts for free if you call them. You will get them within a few days.

My attorney is encouraging me to take part in the proposed AILF Class Action Lawsuit against the Government by submitting I-485 to USCIS knowing that its going to be rejected. Anyone decided on this? What are the pros and cons? If there is a favorable outcome, I-485 may be accepted at that time (months? / years?). But here is my big concern: if I am a part of that lawsuit, my 485 may be considerably delayed (my PD is Feb 2005) ! I am aware that IV is encouraging lawsuit too. Any comments?
My question is, how long is the lawsuit, and what happens to your case if your pd becomes current? Will USCIS process your case if your are embroiled in a lawsuit, or will they wait till the lawsuit is over?

Beautifulmind,
I was not sure, hence I asked you to check with a good attorney. Will your work be different then described in your LC?
Did not mean to create confusion for you.
Good luck.

I am looking to accept a new full time position on H1b with a company other than my current employer. My current employer has offered me to continue with them on a partime basis with a concurrent H1 and I am looking to convert my current full time H1 into a part-time H1 and get the new company to file a new concurrent H1 petition for me for full time. There is no change in title or job description.
My question is whether changing a full time H1 into a part time (40 hrs/wk vs 20 hrs/month) constitute a material change ? and thus require filing of a new ameneded petition ? And are the filing fees same for an amended petition as for a new petiton.
Would appreciate if someone knowledgeable would comment.

I am sure this may have been asked already but I coudn't find a thread.
I have an approved and valid extension on my H1 but my EAD expired in august and my AP expired last month. I didn't file for an EAD/AP renewal yet because I was not using them and wanted to delay it for a few months and save some money.
Will there be any problem with a delayed EAD/AP filing ?
No problem

Hi Gurus,
I filed my 485 in June 07 ad hd my FP on 7th September, 07. I read on some of the threads that we would be geting notices for additional finger printing after 15 months or so. I havent received any yet. Should I be proactive an request for one? Will my EAD finger printng count towards the requirement? ( I had given my biometrics formy EAD last April i.e 08 April ). Is this the reason why I did not get the FP notice? Any one in my boat?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance
