Hi Beppenyc,
I have a very good friend who is French. He live is Paris. He tells me his view is different than yours.
Beppenyc, could it be because France did not control the number of immigrants and ended up bringing more pople than what they should and made assimilation harder there ? Some believe that the US is heading to a path similar than the France one. Just look at the US. This is a country known for its immigration tradition. Look at what is happening now. Americans - unfortunately - are starting to become bitter towards immigration. Why ? It is because as everything in life, you need to have a balance. If you start letting too many people in, people may feel immigration becomes an invasion. Like France, this is a democracy. When you have the majority of your citizens pissed off at illegal immigration or even rate of legal immigration, honestly I would listen to the people otherwise the relationship between newcomers and citizens may look a rough road ahead.
Just to give you an idea, today I have a lunch with folks from my church - some are here illegally - and they acknowledged that there are too many Latinos in Orlando and therefore they do not want to live there anymore. Just to give you an idea how serious the situation is. Even the illegal folks themselves admit that an unbalanced number of immigrants may not be advantageous.
The problem in French is different. They bring the immigrants from Africa and North Africa to work to build the subway, La Defense (ask yourfriends),Eurostar ect ect. French has a controll of the number of immigrants, is not so difficult. The problem is that they put the immigrants living in the ghetto (Banlieu) and to not give any hope of future. When all the big project were done, they forced to sent the immigrants home, but without success. If you are really interest to see what is the reality in France, get this movie made in 1997, LA HAINE.
Communique, the problem is different: Illegal immigratin is like poverty , you will never defeat it. The US economy have an enormous advantage with the Illegal immigration, in particulary in Agricolture, they were more competitive in the international market. If you have 12 million of illegals, means that you have at least 6 million of American Citizen who give job to this people, making a HUGE PROFIT. Let`s analyze the restaurant business, how is possible that is cheaper to eat in USA than europe? The reason because here they can use a lot of illegal in the kitchen or as waitress. What about the house building? What about it? About the legal, the difference is that of course we are playing with the rules, but the reality is that we are in the same condition: we are slave, we can not look for another job because of the sponsorship and 4 have this green card we will wait for ever.That`s give an enormous advantage to the company, butis not fair, because the company is really exploit us. You are talking about invasion, it`s funny, I have the same discussion with another american kid. If the American citizens are really angry about that, how is possible that they continue to hire illegal? . YOur economy is growing but US don`t have the capacity to answer to all the needs. Period. Your immigration law was wrong from the beginning, because did not undestand the really needs of the economy. The real challange is to make them integrated in the US society. If not , the situation will be worse in the future. Good luck and good nigt!

My lawyer told me that my H1B status is maintained for 240 days after my visa expires.
Visa is for getting into the country only, an expired visa will not invalidate your H1 status.

My opinion (may be incorrect):
You should show your approval notice at the port of entry along withyour passport(visa). The immigration officer should put the date based on your approval notice on your I-94. If he doesn't (make sure you check you I-94 at that time), request him to correct the date. If still he doesn't then last action rule applies as you stated.

I applied for EAD for my wife to get the SSN to get the Stiumulus package (What a riddle created by the system). The funny part is that USCIS cashed my check within 12 hours of my application being received.
I wish this happened for H1 transfers, issue of EAD, I-485 etc etc. Oh,..now they will be understaffed and over worked ...and the list goes on and on.

So after more than a month of sleepless nights, thanks to Immigration Voice looks like my I 485 application is back on track.
A recap of my situation:
Last month I got an email from USCIS-CRIS stating that my I 485 was withdrawn. After being in this country for close to 10 years and in the immigration queue for more than 7 years why would I withdraw the application ??? I did not withdraw my application !!!
It took me more than a month to find out the reason behind the withdrawal..trust me it was not easy..and guess what ....It was my Attorney who had withdrawn the application in Error. Now what ... I call USCIS multiple times.. talk to many different IO's .. some of them patient and try to help.. some extremely rude.. but all of them had only one thing to say... they cannot help!!..... I get an Info Pass... no help there either.. I set up an emergency meeting with my attorney (one of the large Immigration Law Firms) .. nothing...they accept their mistake tell me that they will do all they can .. but no assurance that they will reinstate the case .. limited forward movement.... things look gloomy and bleak..no one can help me.
Then I called Immigration Voice on the number that is listed on the site and left a voice mail. Promptly got a call back I spoke to a Core member who understood the gravity and urgency of the situation and swiflty moved forward and got in touch with their contacts in the government. The Core member also put me in a conference call with the person who was going to look into my case, I was so relieved that I could explain the situation first hand.
I got a call today and I was told that after evaluating my case my file has been reopened and they have mailed an offical notice regarding the same and I should get it in a few days. *Fingers crossed until I get this notice in hand *
The IV core was extremely sensitive to my situation and were very responsive and extremly helpful. I cant thank Immigration Voice enough for helping me resolve this issue in a quick manner.
I have registered to be a recurring contributing member and I intend to be an active member of this group.
My lessons from this crazy experience are:
- Never trust your attorney, always ask for a copy of any letter/document they send to USCIS on your behalf
- There is no organization besides IV out there that is looking out for the interests of the Immigrant Community.
- We need to strengthen IV in all ways we can, we need to be active.
- And as so many members have already said "We are IV." If we want things to be better "WE" need to do something about it.
I urge members who are still contemplating becoming active members to evaluate their options and to become active and contributing members of IV.
- Peace
ps:
Another point I would like to add is that no other organization has the kind of reach and the credibility with USCIS as IV has as far as representing the true interests of the Immigrant Community goes. IV is a huge asset we have and we should work towards strenthening it.
we are glad that it worked out.

Question 13 .
Can I leave my sponsoring employer once I get my green card? TOP
One may switch employers during the I-485 process if (a) the I-485 has been pending for over 180 days and is not yet adjudicated and (b) the offer of new employment is in the same or similar job. While the USCIS may use the description of the job duties from the DOT or the O*NET to determine similarity in jobs, they have verbally agreed that they may be willing to consider a broader definition in the future. Besides job title and description, the salary from the new employer would at least need to satisfy concerns regarding the public charge provisions and should be as closed to the amount listed on the labor certification as possible.
Clearly, the law before AC21 was passed in October 2000 required that a person continue working with the employer that sponsored the green card for at least 6 months to 1 year after obtaining the green card. Although AC21 allows the changing of employers if the I-485 is not adjudicated within 180 days, there is no change in the law with respect to the intention of the employer to offer and the employee to undertake "permanent," full-time work with the sponsoring employer for the job advertised. Keep in mind that a green card job offer is legally considered a future job offer. Therefore, the employee must have a good-faith intention to work for the employer after the green card is approved, and the employer must have a good-faith intention to employ the employee after the green card is approved. Even if one worked for the sponsoring employer for several years while pursuing the green card process, that would not count as future intent. Generally, 6 months to 1 year after obtaining the green card is a safe time period to change employment. Failure to stay at the sponsoring employer may result in problems at the naturalization stage!

I think we are confusing multiple issues here. Once the 6 month period is over where the I-140 is approved and the I-485 is pending for 180 days it does NOT matter if the employer revokes the I-140 or not. You are good to go! (Unless ur a classified terrorist or a criminal).
The only question is, Can you still get a 3 year extention based on a I-140 that is revoked? I am thinking that may be an issue. In that scenario, you would be forced to play the EAD card.
Refer to my previous posting: if employer revokes even after 180 days; eventually everyone has been ok. However there are has been many straight denials by uscis even if person invoked ac21. Then person has problems renewing ead/ap, etc. Eventually person should be ok but in between there are some problems one needs to face. One needs to be ready to face these problems/issues.

Hello,
My 485 status online just changed today. Here's the new message:
Application Type: I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: This case is now pending at the office to which it was transferred.
The I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS was transferred and is now pending standard processing at a USCIS office. You will be notified by mail 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. We process cases in the order we receive them. You can use our processing dates to estimate when this case will be done, counting from when USCIS received it. Follow the link below to check processing dates. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. To receive e-mail updates, follow the link below to register.
--------
The previous message said that "my case was transfered from CA to NSC on Sept 12th 2007". I had been seeing the previous message for the past 9 months. Anyone knows what the new message means?
Coincidentally, I had called today and spoke with an IO to check on the status of my 485. He said that within 30-60 days it should get assigned to an officer. Would this have any bearing on the new status message? I see an LUD with today's date.
Thanks much for any help,
Kunal

yes!!
with AC21, you do not have to do the whole thing again......... that I am sure of!!
Does the job title have to be same? What if there is a promotion involved, i.e., the new job title is at a higher level? Will USCIS accept that?

Yes i called the original civil surgeon and the tb test is going to cost $15 only and xray $40.
I found the reason i got the rfe.
I had a copy of the last tb test report.
That civil surgeon forgot to check mark the tb test !!!!
He checked a different section !!!
I feel bad that i missed to read it!
I could have rectified the darn doctor then and there.
It was during the july fiasco. We were all in a hurry and tensed up.
Thanks for your update.
Once this rfe is cleared, i am going to sue that doctor for expenses!
I feel sad that people dont do their jobs properly in this advanced country.
you are complaining about the doctor who missed to check mark the tb test. Even you missed to fill in your profile.
Please update your profile.

Why don't you ask your parents or some one who can help you to check with Registrar if they can apply on your behalf if you give power of attorney?I think this is the first thing you need to do if not yet.
If that is possible they can provide copies of your passport, marriage photos.
Hello -
As a Primary Applicant my GC was approved (EB-1) but for my wife's application I got an RFE. RFE - USCIS is asking for a VALID wedding certificate showing proof of a hindu wedding under hindu act (dont ask what I was doing or what my lawyer was doing while submitting 485)
Now I have about 28 days (total is 30) to respond to it. I have not rcvd. my GC but it has been approved and has been sent to production. My lawyer told me that as my GC has been approved my VISA is not good anymore. My wife was on dependent visa and so is my kid.
Now as my GC got approved.......my visa got cancelled...........my wife's & kids visa is invalid.............and we did not file for Advance Parole so we cant travel. On top of all this we dont have a wedding certificate.
Any suggestion to address this situation? I cant get a certificate without going back to India and I cant leave the country as If I do so I wont get to enter the country again. Even if somehow (on some legal basis) I can re enter I dont think my wife and kid will be able to re enter US.
If I dont produce evidence then my wife's application will be rejected putting her out of status.............gosh what a mess.....
ANY SUGGESTIONS FROM ANYONE WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED. Murali please respond with any possibility which I can explore upon.
Thanks

No harm in calling USCIS. Why do u need to ask that in this forum?
It is their customer service no.. go ahead..call them. they will tell you if they can give any additional info or not
