Having an approved 140 and a 485 pending for more than six months is the safe method of switching. For AC21, the key is to have your 485 pending for more than six months. You can use AC21 to switch employers after six months of filing of 485 even if your 140 is not approved. Its not a simple process but folks have done it.

That's interesting. I did not know that you could invoke AC21 'even if the I-140 is not approved'.
Thanks.

Hi ! My H1B with current employer is valid till March 2010. I got a new job offer and employer is willing to transfer my H1B. I have submitted all the documents.
The attorney of the new employer says, that I can start working with new company once USCIS receives my application. Is it safe? She says Fedex tracking no. is enough. Did any one face this situation? pl.respond. She got instructions from the employer to apply in regular process.How much time it will take to get a receipt no. in regular process?

I am EB-3 ROW PD 2007 Aug. Reading all the Eb-3 I people's angry, I started to wonder what's gonna happen to the EB-3 ROW. Seems like if lots of Eb3-I change to EB2-I , They will probably eat up all the Spillover from Eb1, EB2 ROW from now on. That makes EB-3 ROW and EB-3 I become the same boat.
Is it what gonna happened?
All Indians and Chinese will file only EB2 now onwards:D
The problem is with past filings how to convert them to EB2.

I called USCIS and the representative said that, the normal turn around time for receipts is 15 days. And if we dont recieve the receipt by then, the employer can call and ask for the receipt #.
I think with the receipt number, we should be good to go.

Hi All,
Any website for checking on I140 appeals just like www.immigrationwatch.com.
I have been waiting for my I140 appeal to come through for the last 6 months now. Getting impatient.
Thank u
This seems to be a very good site with stats on approvals.

I am not sure about effect of patriot act, but some of my friends who left in 2002 era still have accounts here. Another friend left for Banglore but his 401K is still here.
You can keep accounts. NO problem. Patriot Act targets money laundering. You dont have to worry

Just called.
The lady's voice lit up when I told her I was from San Antonio. She took down my information and zip code.
She told me that she has informed other callers to also ask people from Mr. Smit's district to call. That would be more effective.
June05,
Encourage your friends to call for themselves and your co workers on your behalf.
if you can talk to your boss and have him/her call on behalf of your organization explaining the difficulty, its even better.

I wanted to attend but I have pretty much exhausted all my vacation. 2 more days will be pushing it.
Also, the flight schedules to fly from Portland Oregon to D.C is so ridiculous that it takes a whole day away in flying.
Will definetely attend a rally in the east coast, or better yet will help organize one.
Hey zerocomplexity & jay75:
We flew from Seattle on friday mrng at 5:30 am. Had a 5 hours lay over at LA. We wanted to be present & it was worth all the pains....
And also must mention, there were 60+ people from CA too...

I just got laid off.
I am an EB2 (Jul 15, 2007 priority date). I jointly filed my I-140/I-485 5 months ago (1 month inside the 6 month period to become 'portable'). I was at Merrill Lynch; they said they do not typically inform immigration of laid off employees and the lawyers feel that I should still be able to get my I-140/I-485 (hence, my greencard) desp. They said, due to the current economic conditions (and subsequent large numbers of layoffs) US immigration is not to 'stick'y on the 6 month requirement for portability.
Does this sound plausible? Is there anything I need to be aware/careful of? Does it seem likely I will need to start my greencard (PERM) process from the beginning again?
Your knowledge is urgently appreciated. Many thanks!!

Dude,
Be pragmatic. How can you ask CIS NOT to raise RFE's for EAD extensions? If they find some thing fishy they would definitely dig the issue. Remember, CIS is not working for you or for me. I cannot stop laughing!
One more thing which I do not understand is how prefiling of AOS is related to Remove\dilute same similar job requirement? If you feel there is so much of importance for your SO COMPLEX CUSTOMIZED REQUIREMENT then why dont you start a new action item and gather people?
I hate to say this but your post is SO ridiculous which clearly implies that there is no place for people in IV who have PD's after may 2007.
I have a strong advice for you... 'THINK B4 U INK'
I hear some people saying childish things like hijacking this thread if anybody says anything different from what they say. What do you prefer, should I open another thread with title "oppose prefiling AOS", nobody wins neither will I or you when somebody does that. Please tolerate others views then they will tolerate yours.
Without strengthening AC21 if you allow everyone to file AOS then anti eb folks like Grassley, Sanders, Sessions, Durbin will move from targeting H1b to targeting EAD. It takes 6 months to get Perm approval, with pre filing AOS everyone can get EAD in 6 months, anti eb folks and USCIS know that people will be jumping to EAD to escape H1 crackdown, what do you think they will do, they will add amendments and Bills to put restrictions on hiring EAD just like they put restrictions on hiring H1b. We cannot make EAD into another H1b like hell.
Prefiling should be done to give relief to people who missed July fiasco only after
1. Remove\dilute same similar job requirement
2. Make sure EAD is extended without any rfe. USCIS will invent thousand things to issue rfe, EAD should be in a different league to h1 and it should not turn into another h1 where you are slapped with rfe left right and center. Example Pay stub rfe, ability to pay rfe, customer Purchase order RFE etc etc etc, Green card holders don’t have any problem working in these same jobs so why should EAD people face this nonsense (otherwise it is just like h1). Before people complain this will become like a green card, lets me answer in advance, if a person from ROW can get his green card within 12 months of coming to US, why cannot people from India\china who have worked in US for the last 5 to 10 years get the above mentioned relief on EAD. EAD should be superior to h1.the only restriction should be you should work in the same field, i.e. if your labor certification is for Software engineer, programmer analyst etc , then you work in a software related job and cannot become a greeter in walmart :-)
Without strengthening EAD\AC21 with the above mentioned items you are turning EAD into just another h1.If we push for prefiling AOS without strengthening Ac21 it is a big disadvantage and slap on the face for all the people with older priority date. Because of July fiasco when everybody got current and filed for AOS, USCIS issued GC to people from 2006 leaving behind people from 2003, 04 and 05. USCIS should have gradually moved the dates from 2003 to 04 to 05 that way people with older PD would have got it first. With prefiling AOS it will become a lottery like in August 2008 where 2006 PD got GC over 03,04 and 05 in eb2. Safeguards have to be put in place for order of priority date otherwise USCIS will indulge in this lottery mode and excuse there behavior by claiming they did this to save visa wastage.

Hi NK2006,
I am afraid my analysis reflect the reality. I have heard a number of people talking about this and polls have shown that is the case. Iraq war & scandals were the driving force behind this. Nothing else. Even liberal newspapers such as The Nation report that is the case:
http://www.thenation.com/blogs/capitalgames?pid=137918
Americans are really disappointed with the GOP in general and I personally know a leader of an anti-illegal alien group who voted against his Republican representative. That is true. It is odd, but that is the truth.
Regards,
Ombudsman
So your analysis is: people are unhappy with GOP that “some” of them are in favor of immigration measures and punished them by giving control to a party where “most” of them are certain to support those same measures ????!!!???!!! Its most illogical and even comical analysis I ever heard.
Elections show that American people are much smarter than some politicians/talk show/TV show hosts hoped for. True, elections are fought on much stronger issues like war, economy etc and exit polls have shows that people are not too concerned about illegal immigration issue despite of coverage given by likes of Lou Dobbs. Also based on the fate of candidates who made the immigration their main plank, it can be argued that majority is actually in favor of such measures…..election results are a lot complicated to say anything like that…..but….its a much more logical conclusion that what you were saying.

Overall - $5000.
Advance - $2500 within 30 days to start the work.
Is the overall work something like 100K that they have divided by the number of requests to yield 5K per request? Unlikely. I think they just sent standard 5K demand to each FOIA request to shut it down.

New applications coming in after July 2????
Well, I just made my third call and the lady sounded quite confident that applications that have been received and are in processing are not affected by this and it's only NEW applications that would be coming in after July 2 that are affected. I understand what you're saying that they don't assign it but I have read before that they "assume" each application qualifies unless they eventually figure out otherwise. And now I am making my own assumption that if they assume it qualifies then it's assumed a visa is indirectly assigned? Wait, I'm confused:D.

is UNLIKELY to pass at least in its current form. Public hospitals, underserved area clinics, Universities are not Google and Oracle!!! They'll go under if they have to pay 5000 $ for H1Bs. People probably don't have the faintest idea under what kind of financial strain these are. There will be exemptions for universities and non-profit organizations.
Not only the 5K filing fee , One have to do newspaper advertisement like PERM the cost of lawyer fee and I read somewhere One year extension for H1b beyond 6yrs since I140 will be out of the picture. :eek:

Hi All,
I applied for my daughter's PIO card and sent all the documents as mentioned in the instructions sheet of the embassy website along with the self addressed stamped envelope. I heard from my other friends that even after you send everything in order, the embassy people would call and say that they did not receive the self addressed stamped envelop. It happened to three of my friends. I am the 4th one. They called today to tell that I did not send the envelope.
The funny part that happened with my friends is that, they all sent $20 and the package came in the very envelope they sent in the first place, that the embassy said they didn't receive.
Did anybody of you also had the same kind of experience or similar incident. If so, please do share.
Why are they doing like that? Do they really think we would do like that, trying to save on an self addressed envelope? It really bothered me for the fact that the lady from the consulate was utterly rude when talking. I am amazed how in the world, The Indian Government is still hiring such people? Of more then a billion population, is that the best person the government of India could find for that customer service post? Its a shame and I am ashamed that such dic*heads working and representing India?
Coming back to the issue...she said sternly, send $20.00 or send envelope stamped otherwise the application would not be processed.
Folks, please let me know where I can complain about this careless attitude of this monster woman. What steps can I take to make sure they don't do that again? I live in TN and I can't fly/drive to Washington DC. The questions is not about the money, but the way they are operating without any ethics is deplorable.
Hoping to hear all your valuable suggestions.
Thank you.
