Thanks for reading this message. Since you are from mid-west, you are capable of taking your car and drive in the direction of DC. It will take anywhere from 9-15hours. But you will be able to do it.
If there was a possibility of USCIS handing a GC in person, you would have driven 50 hours. Can you not drive for 10hours for a cause that is affecting you, me and everyone around us?
Now make up your mind and drive and meet other mid-westerners in DC.
I know one mr Gan*** - who flew to Nebraska with a Substitute labor and i 140 petition on the last day before labor substitution was banned. Mr Gane** also filed for 485 after the fiasco and we had a drink together because he thought he did a marvellous job as he is just 2 months old in US and has just landed in a consulting job and already applied 140/485 during the fiasco.
But he is not willing to hop onto my car, lives 5 miles from my place in Queens, to go to DC.
This shows the poor attitude people have towards grassroots efforts.

Hello All,
If my priority date is current as of November bulletin, do I have time
until 30th November to mail the I-485 application?
Or does the DOS need to have received the application on or before 30th November?
And if I am in California, where does the I-485 application physically go?
[Its a long story why I didn't when the doors were open in July-Aug]
Thanks!

Hi,
I am in a unique situation, any advise/help would be appreciated.
My H1 Visa and I-94 are expiring on Jan 20, 2009. It can be extended till Apr 2011 as I have been in US only for 3 Yrs and 8 Months. My current employer is not extending my Visa, so I am going to get it extended through another company, say COMPANY ABC (a Staffing company basically).
However, I don't want to be with Company ABC because I am soon going to get a job with a direct client, CLIENT XYZ, but that won't happen until Jan 25th or so.
So my question is, if I apply for extension through COMPANY ABC for now, just so that I don't go 'out of status' on Jan 20th, will CLIENT XYZ be able to apply for my extension on Jan 25th, while my application with Company ABC is still pending? Or they (CLIENT XYZ) will have to wait until my first application (With COMPANY ABC) is processed?
Basically, just want to know if a Company ABC has filed for H1 Transfer and I-94 extension before the expiry date, can another Company XYZ file for an extension/transfer after the expiry while the application from company ABC is still being processed?
Any help is appreciated. I have posted this query on couple of other posts but no one seems to know the answer! no one replied yet :(

Please see my answers below.
Hi - I am on 7th Year of my H1. My I-140 has been approved. My I-485 is pending for while plus my PD is not current as of Jan 09. In this case...
a) Am I eligible to apply for H1 extension (I don't want to use EAD)?
Yes, you can apply for H1 extension when I-485 is pending
b) If Yes, will I get 1 Year or 3 Years?
Once I-140 is approved, you will get an extension for 3 years.
Thanks for your help...

It will be subjective of the examining officer...he could choose to deny the 140, issue an RFE or may even just ignore it...
I understand is a grey area but i was wondering if anybody here had some issues like that. Hopefuly, whatever he does is not going to be denying it...

I have started a new thread to remind everyone (who has not yet contributed) to contribute for the just concluded Advocacy day.
Take some funds from any money that you put aside this year for charitable causes or temple donations. All that you contribute is money well spent - as eventually it would benefit a number of people and entire families. So helping people better their lives is like contributing to charitable causes. Even $50 is good to start with. Hope that motivates all.
Hi Guys,
Just Curious, you asked for & posted the contribution very consistently on forum - now since advocacy days are over - are you going to post the break-up of expenses also in similar manner? That will motivate people (who can't make it to advocacy event) to understand the expenses & donate for future events.

I believe when DOS calculated the Eb2 China demand data for July, they might have taken all apps pending from Nov22 2005 till Dec 31 2005. Considering the apps prior to Nov 22 2005 as demand for June 2010.
Same for Eb2 India from Feb1 2005 till Dec 31 2005. To make note is India dates did not change in June so the demand remains the same for that year.
My 2 C
All this inventory etc dosent make sense ,
Pending EB2 cases for china are around 2000 as per USCIS inventory .
but as per DOS Demand data its only 500 ..
God Knows whats Happening .

Is there any legal issues?
Is it a good idea?
DHS will be rescinding its July 2 update and the initial July Visa Bulletin will take effect for 31 days � i.e., all employment-based green card categories (except for the �Other Workers� category) will be �current� and CIS will accept applications through August 17.
DHS will issue a press release to this effect later today.

Hello friends,
I filed for I-485 in mid-June 2007 but never received the receipt notice
(due to the issue described in this thread: http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=11788&highlight=undeliverable).
After months of calling USCIS (probably called at least 10-15 times over past 6 months) and having the lawyer send a written letter, I still did not receive the receipt notice as the customer service reps kept telling me that USCIS doesn't send a duplicate receipt notice.
When I saw that one of my friends who had the same issue received a "Replacement Receipt Notice" after calling them numerous times, I decided to call them again. I was able to convince one of the reps to put in a service request requesting "resend whatever was returned to USCIS as undeliverable".
I finally received a letter from USCIS that they will resend the receipt notice but it has been a few weeks since then and I still have not received the promised receipt notice.
Now I need to file for EAD ASAP but it requires you to attach the receipt notice (Notice of Action I-797C or I-797??).
(lawyer didn't file for EAD with I-485 as I have H1)
So my question is:
Can I use the Biometric appointment notice (ASC Appointment Notice I-797C) instead of I-485 Receipt Notice I-797 to file EAD form I-765 as a proof that I filed I-485 ?
What are the odds that they will send my EAD application back saying that I need the actual I-485 receipt notice?
What are my options?
Thanks in advance!

USCIS Revises Filing Instructions and Direct Mail Program for the Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card (Form I-90)
WASHINGTON � U.S. Citizenship and Immigrations Services (USCIS) published a Federal Register notice on April 28, 2009 that changed the filing location and filing instructions for the Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card (Form I-90). The revised filing instructions require applicants to submit supporting documentation with their applications. Prior to this change, applicants were instructed to bring their supporting documentation to their biometrics appointments. The notice also revises the Direct Mail address for the Form I-90. Applicants must now file their Form I-90 and supporting documentation with the USCIS Lockbox facility in Phoenix.
This change in filing location affects all I-90 applicants filing a paper form, including those applicants filing the I-90 because their previously issued card was never received or because their existing card has incorrect data due to a USCIS error. This notice does not affect applicants filing an I-90 electronically or whose place of residence is outside the United States.
Beginning on April 28, 2009, applicants must submit their Form I-90 and supporting documentation to the USCIS Lockbox facility in Phoenix for initial processing, using the following addresses:
USCIS
P.O. Box 21262
Phoenix, AZ 85036
For USPS Express Mail and Courier Service deliveries, use the following address:

First of all, let me begin by congratulating the IV core team and other members on staging a dignified protest to the entire July VB fiasco!
I have a question regarding the medical exam for the AOS. The civil surgeon I went to did not do a TB skin test and instead took an x-ray to verify no signs of TB. Has anyone else had the same experience, i.e. no skin test, x-ray only?
The other strange thing he told me was that some of his patients send the x-ray as part of the 485 application. Has any1 else heard of anything like this?
Last I checked, the USCIS did not employ medical personnel, but then what do I know?
Any input from fellow IV members is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and good luck to all.
This answers your question: http://www.murthy.com/news/n_tbtest.html
Thanks,
Jayant

Please start a webfax campaign in support of the Amendment S.1249, being co-sponsored by senators Maria Cantwell (D-Wash), John Cornyn (R-Tex.), Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), Orrin Hatch (R-Pa.), and Robert Bennett (R-Utah).
There is no use just opposing the existing bill without proposing what we want actually.
