Hi,
Guys, I don't know how other people think about team IV and why some people suspect our team's ability. I think highly of them. They are in the same boat as we are now! Team IV is the best team I have seen to represent Employment Based Immigrants! The bill isn't dead!!! Don't give up, don't let pessimism overcome you and don't let hurdle confuse your vision!
Let's unite and work hard to move it. Good job, team IV!

I am a labour substitution case pd feb 2002 filed 140 in June at NSC. My 140 has been pending for more than a year. Now recently I received 2 year ead.
Does this imply my 140 is approved too???
Is it safe to work on ead of one gets 2 year ead with pending 140.??
please advice.
I do not understand why they grant EADs when your I-140 is not approved. The reason I bring this up is if a person loses his/her job and your I-140 is revoked, the EAD is useless. You cannot use AC21 for that because your I-140 is not approved.
Nebraska center is doing nothing regarding I-140 EB-3 (India) apps. The I-140 date at Nebraska has beeing moving by 1 day per month for the last 7-8 months. It is stuck at March 30th 2007. Moreover, the latest "as of" i.e. "report" date that you see on Nebraska is July 31st 2008. It is not current (Sept 2008) as many of you may think.
I understand that they receive 1000s of applications but that is no excuse for incompetence. As of July 31st, it was taking them 1 year and 4 months and now it is 1 year and 6 months to process I-140.
Why don't they re-institute expedited I-140 approval?
Can IV please help us?

I would suggest that take an info pass and meet an immigration officer and explain the situation to him personally and if possible given him a written explanation too. What i find a little wired that when you applied for extension you did not notice that that I 94s got exhanchged and even if you did you went ahead and applied for extansion. In my opinion never apply for extension as the applicants next visit is in jeopordy irrespective of result of extnsion of i 94 .

Case Summary:
* Employer A = Previous Employer with whom I have my I-140 approved
* Employer B = Current Employer. I do not have a PERM or I-140 approved with this employer. I used my I-140 with Emp.A to get a 3 year extension when I transferred from Emp.A to Emp.B [So now, due to this extension, I have my H1-B approved upto Aug'08 instead of June 2006, which was the end of my H1-B six years]
* Employer C = Future Employer. I am planning to move from Emp.B and join this Employer now.
Question:
Can I use my I-140 from Emp.A to get multiple 3 year extensions with Emp.C when I change my job from Emp.B to Emp.C, or after joining Emp.C ?
[Please note: I do not have an approved I-140 from Emp.B at this time, and I have used my I-140 from Emp.A once to get a 3-year extension when I transfered from Emp.A to Emp.B. Can I use it yet again when I move to my third Employer, Emp.C or when I transfer my H1 from Emp.B to Emp.C]. This is assuming that the dates will not be current when I transfer or file for extensions.

If your Attorney is confident then move on.. Let's see if any one with similar issue has any comment to offer. Good Luck.
My lawyer says 'do not worry' and he does not say what may be potential impact. gurus can you help what kind of trouble I would be facing?

We are going to demand TRANSPARENCY in addition to efficiency for BECs. Its a part of Immigration voice's agenda.
Is there ANY mechanism right now for applicants or their attorneys to find out what's going on with their PERM application? Is there a phone number you can call or an email address you can write to? It seems that at a minimum the processing centers should issue a monthly report on the progress and issues encountered.

Hi guys,
My I140 was approved last week (RD July 2007). I have the approval notice copy from the lawyer but the online status is still saying its pending.
I called uscis and she told me that she is seeing that its pending too but if i have the approval notice then not to worry. It takes them some time sometimes to update the system, as per her.
But my concern is, when my PD becomes current and if their own system shows my I140 penidng(eventhough it's approved), how will they approve 485?
Any one in same boat or any past experience?
Thanks and good luck to all who are waiting.

What does this mean
"As a result, average processing times for certain application types may become longer. In particular, naturalization applications filed after June 1, 2007 may take approximately 16 - 18 months to process."
What are the chances for the people who applied on July 1 ?
Please read carefully. It is only for "naturalization".

This is a much talked about subject around these days. I am sure many of us who renewed EAD but had a gap in the expiration and renewal date and were on a leave of absence. Would this be a problem when it comes to the GC processing?

Also in NC, the DMV rules are changes to issue DL untill the Visa Stamp validity in PP, This will be an issue, if you extended your H1, but no valid visa in PP. Would recommend getting this done via internet.

Fuji's $22,000 medium format digital back. About $1,000 per megapixel. Click Here (http://www.fujifilm.com/JSP/fuji/epartners/PREventDetailPage.jsp?DBID=NEWS_547213&CAT_ID=-1007).
That, of course, is without the body and lenses necessary to make it fully functional. I'd rather just get a 10D with a few good lenses and a nice used vehicle (not car, probably SUV, so I can haul around the 10D, my current film SLR, lenses, tripods, other camera accessories... and don't forget that 4x5 view camera). ;)

Guys,
I just created a search engine (http://immisearch.blogspot.com/) to help all people looking for a better way to search topics around immigration related activites. The search engine came as a result of my countless hours that I spent searching to answers around the web.
Try searching for any information with h1b, h4, Green Card, I-485, I140, citizenship etc, and the engine should give you a better result.
Leave a comment at the blog and let me know what else could be improved.

This is copy paste from july 07 VB...
Should the rate of demand for numbers be very heavy in the coming months, it could become necessary to retrogress some cut-off dates for September, most likely for China-mainland born and India, but also possibly for Mexico and Philippines.
does it mean the Sept 07 bulleting may have some cut-off dates ?
What it could be for EB3 India ? Not beyond the Jun 03' as published in Jun 07 VB i guess ?
Please let me know your comments.

There is one way to find out if CIR is any good for EB - by looking at the bill when it is proposed bill and amendments. It will be suicidal to assume that CIR is somehow bad for us, and incriminate any effort for CIR. My point earlier was not that CIR is bad for EB, but about the actual reason for Sen. Reid's recent comments, just to set the expectations straight.

I am qualified in finance;started my career in finance & continued for 4 yrs. then switched over to SAP implementation ; for over 3 yrs now, i have been into SAP implementation projects. I have H1B approved for SAP work.
Now, can I take up a job with a different title - say, "Finance Analyst" or "Corporate Finance"? I have been talking to various clients in California that are interested in offering me finance positions.
