Piyush,
Your dependents are "in status" as their I485 pending. donot worry about it. You will receive your card within 3-4 days.
Right now my parents in India are trying to seek help from local authority so as to say the ADM office - to get the certificate. I dont know how much this will work.........I will keep everyone posted.

The issue is that my company lawyer said that there will be a need for a visa stamping done for the extension because of the Last action rule. The murthy forum reference is something I dug up via google.
Because the extension will be for a future date (March 1). Current visa stamp is till Feb 28, 2007. So if the officer gives a new I-94 with Feb 28, 2007 as the validity date, the attorneys claim that it will invalidate the approved extension due to a "Last Action Rule".
It is hard to trust these corporate lawyers.
I guess the USCIS letter also talks about change of status from F1 to H1 and not extension of an already valid H1 for 3 more years.
maybe safer to go with your lawyer on this one :-)

I plead Guilty, but to lesser charges.
As a long time EB3 sufferer (and will continue to suffer for a long time to come, 7 years and counting), it is very difficult to sign up for "hang in there, and hang in together". By now my spinal cord is at the breaking point, I was 5.4 when I started hanging in there, now I am 7.2 and growing (check out the latest Guinness book of record for the longest neck).
IV has done a lot, and I applaud it for doing so. However, I don't subscribe to "hang in together" mantra anymore (the current EB1 spill-over still rankles me), but I don't use IV for such discussion anymore. *Some* EB2'ers initially bashed us for being silly and jealous, and now they want EB3s to not port. Just as the reputation I have shored up, it looks like "EB3s are infamous around these parts".

You can appeal quoting your friend got approved. I have seen in the past, people got their approvals in appeal.
You must consult a good attorney and go for appeal if you think your employer is willing to help and has the ability to pay, appeal is your best route or go for another job and reaply with your new employer.
Good Luck..

If DOS has set the priority date for EB2 India to Jun 2006, and USCIS does not want to waste visas, they have no other choice but to forward the processing dates at NSC/TSC. Even though the 485 processing dates may not move significantly in much awaited July Processing dates publishing, the August Processing dates bulletin will show the massive forward movement (485 processing date will reach till June 2006).

What a rationale you are using. So then "kids should not suffer" and then the answer is yes, go ahead and reward those who broke laws with an amnesty.Hey, I don't know if you have kids, just imagine you have 16 old kid, you are on H1 waiting for labor certification and visa number to be available. While waiting continues your kid turns 21. Are you ready to send him home?

My point was that it doesn't matter. It represents $1000/ per person, hardly enough to make a dent in poverty. We need sensible labor laws, a pro-business attitude, and that money will return to India.
Dude this huge money can change India's future .Consider that National River linking project, all high-way and Railway projects

All,
Please use this opportunity to contact Congressmen and White House - it's extremely easy and simple to do so! All you have to do is fill in your address and send a message which will automatically be faxed to each of the targeted Congressmen as well as the White House. I just spent the following message - feel free to use this as a template:
Subject: "What is the RoadMap for reforming Legal Immigration Process?"
Message: "I am writing today to express deep concern about the legal immigration process! Are you aware that there are over a million legal and highly skilled applicants,who have been working in this country legally and paying taxes, but are waiting in line for an Employment based Green Card, some for over 8 years? A majority of these Legal Immigrants have been impacted by horribly slow administrative processing by the Deparment of Labor between 2002-2006 which resulted in the pipeline for Legal Immigration becoming clogged at that time. Now that obstacle has been finally been cleared, the line of Legal Immigrants is coming up against annual limits to Legal Immigration (both overall and country based) followed by the USCIS. This is directly a result of the Deparment of Labor dragging its heels and holding up applications during over the years mentioned above, resulting in several hundreds of thousands of visa numbers going unused during that time. I request you to act now to relieve the pain and suffering of these Legal Immigrants by recapturing those unused Visa Numbers and allowing these Legal Immigrants to progress through the Immigration System.
This reform will strengthen the rights of all workers, value families, hold employers accountable, and move America forward. During the election, President Obama pledged to reform our nation's immigration laws in just this way. I am writing today because I want to see the plan to get this done.
Please let me know what the road map looks like to passing immigration reform. Our families, our communities, and our economy cannot wait any longer for this urgent reform.
Sincerely,"

I know a person who applied TIN number for their parents as they stayed in US for more than 180 days(that is technically possible as some months have 31 days, so if you correctly plan your paretns trip, people on visitor visa will be allowed to stay for 6 month or 183 days) . Also ff you talk to your immigration officer at the port of entry and convince him that an extra three days would be helpful for parents, he might give you 183 days visa.
You need to prove the substantial presence of parents in US.They have a formula to calculate that (total number of days present in current year + 1/2 of number of days in previous year + 1/3 of the a year before previous year) and it that total is greater than 180 days + some other technicalities(which are easy to prove), you can file for TIN number and file taxes showing them as dependents.

as long as you already got the first shot you will be okay. my husband and i just got our first hepatitis b shot and we need 2 more shots after that. our doctor said to just be ready for the proof when and if USCIS asks for it. it's good you were able to get an appointment. good luck!:D
Guys,
Thanks a lot for the response.
I was finally able to get a doctors appointment on July 24th.
Now comes the tricky part:
Is the varicella vaccine required ? I have not had chicken pox as a child. The blood work showed that I need a chicken pox vaccine.
I went to the county health department today , and they gave me shots for tetanus, MMR, PPD, and one shot for varicella. They said that I have to come back in 30 days for another shot of varicella.
I am not sure what my doctor will say to this when I meet him on July 24th. Also, is it possible for the doctor to provide an I-693 with a statement that the varicella shot will be completed later ?

Lately the members of IV have come to know that Aman Kapoor, the co-founder of IV has sold his house and spent around $64000/- towards the administrative costs of IV. This too was brought to our attention from a regular member like you and me, without which this would not have come to our knowledge at all.
So some of the members have taken an initiative to reimburse Aman and other core IV team members with the expenses they have incurred so far towards the administrative costs of IV. Note that the time they have spent and the sufferings cannot be compensated. Let us do the least by atleast compensating the money. Please do not donate directly to IV funds.
There is a funding drive in this other thread towards reimbursing the administrative costs of IV.

Could you please pledge an amount ?

Guys pls stop taking useless info pass appointments. People like me who have not received EAD and may loose the job are not able to get infopass appointments because of all the people taking appt to know the 485 status. Pls understand......
I do not know when you started the process of renewal, but you could have filled 4 months ago. Then, secondly, if you are so eager go and take an appt in another city. Just an option...Everyone has the right to do whatever they choose...

Thanks for your reply. My main question is, if I do the H1B transfer (to a company other than the one that filed my labor, 140, 485), who has to submit the application for my spouse's 485 (when the priority date becomes current), my new employer or the old one that originally filed my 485?
Thanks.
your wife's petition is based off yours, you dont need any LC/I-140 filing documents for that. Your I-485 receipt and/or I-140 approval notice copy is what you will need to include in her application. Other than that there is nothing needed from either X or Y. So it does not matter whether the petition is filed by an attorney from X, from Y, or from your own independent attorney. You can even file it yourself without involving attorneys...

IV team, please consider the following:
1. IV can post free ads in classifieds like sulekha, indiainfo, craigslist, free ad newspaper, etc.
2. also IV can contact all indian/asian associations and Asian student association in US to place an free ad in their websites/magazine/email newsletter (some have annual magazine, some has monthly newsletter). tell them how IV helps its members in visa/gc related issues including free legal advise.
3. IV can place free ad/info on notice boards in indian/pak/chinese restaurants, indian/pak/chinese groceries, temples, conference halls, etc...
4. increase IV site listing in search engine results. any combination of keywords in gc or visa should bring IV site in top 10 like when searching any US visa (like H1/H4/H1B/F1/J1 etc.), gc related keywords (like I-485, PERM, labor, I-140, immigrant, FingerPrinting, etc). This can be achieved for a little money and this can be done by contacting yahoo/msn and other SEO (Search Engine Optimization) companies. Our members can help us in this regard.
5. Send newsletter email to all IV members atleast ONCE a month and ask them to contact their friends/coworkers/their company employees to join IV.
This newsletter will request members to contact indian/asian association in their local area for membership drive.
Also request them to send feedback to improve IV and to increase publicity and membership.
6. Create "Free Legal Advise for Employers/Schools Only", where employers/schools can send visa/gc related questions and attend conference call during this session. This is an addition to the current one which we have now (which is for open public).
also request these employers to place IV information on notice board in all office branches, also ask them to request these employers to give IV information in welcome package. same for colleges we can contact international student counsellor or concerned persons to give IV information in information package to foreign students who join their college.
7. Create an email like "employerslist@immigrationvoice.org" and mention this in contactus page. Every month newsletter will rquest IV members to send "employers name/address/phone and contact person name/email" to this email so that we can keep the employer information private. Ask them whether IV can use their name to contact them.
This employer should hire foreign graduates, or who sponsors H1B or GC even J1/Business visa etc... in this way, if we collect their names/contact info, we can contact them and request them to place or send email to their employees about IV. They might refuse but we convince saying that IV is providing "free legal counsel for Visa/GC" for both Employers/Employees where they can opinion about their visa/gc related questions and explain how IV helps in getting rid of GC backlogs and advocates H1 increase etc....
8. Create "Contact Us" page with a form inaddition to what we have.
following fields like: from, category, subject, how they heard about us, comments/feedback. This category can be general, questions for free legal advise, feedback, etc.
how they heard about us: give options like IV member/search engine/college/employer/friend/family/association, other etc., if they choose others, they have to tell what it is, this will help us to concentrate on marketing in the area through which we received more membership.
9. Not sure how this is done but check. Do email marketing from hotmail/yahoo, etc. most people give for less than 50$ for 1000 emails, get list of emails specific to people who has occupation in IT who are in US and send email to them.
10. Consider this after trying above options: pay-per-click(PPC)/Adsense (google). for this, we need to spend some money, but some companies are giving 50$ for new customers, after that they will charge us. we can bid very low for PPC.
Thanks everyone for being patient and supporting us. The work is happening at all ends and it is an uphill task.
We really need to increase our membership. Higher membership will mean us looking tall when we meet lawmakers. Please all try to help us spread the word of IV to everyone you know that is stuck in retrogression. We represent at least half million people but we currently not even have 6 thousand members. Thus we have to bring lot many people into IV. I would encourage everyone to pls. register on this forum instead of being visitors.
