Ok I think we are reaching new heights of RIDICULOUS here. An IV member has asked a SIMPLE question about whether or not an Indian citizen needs a visa for the Bahamas.
Who the heck do we think we are to ask him/her to NOT go on that cruise and instead donate to IV?? People i know that we need to raise money and quickly, but this is really not the way to go about it. Everyone needs a vacation to recharge their batteries and spend quality time with their families. The GC is a "MEANS to the END", NOT "The END". Going by this logic, lets not do anything for the next 2-3 years. Lets not buy houses, cars, furniture etc. Lets instead contribute to IV. Besides what is to say that this person has not contributed to IV already?

Hello,
In all the stories of INS, USCIS, DHS that I've read here, the lack of visibility, customer service and accountability seem to be the common theme.
However, I was pleasantly surprized by a call from IO a few weeks back in local office asking me for extra documents (Current employment letter as the original one was from 2007, 2007 tax returns and 2007/08 W-2).
He told me that though he had sent a letter, the letter would take a few days to reach and hence he wanted to call me up. He also told me that as my original fingerprints are expiring on 26th Feb, I should send the response as soon as possible to enable him to process the application.
Though I still don't have any extra hope that the application will be processed soon, it was nice to see a change in USCIS approach.
Hope this was not an exception to rule and we see more such behavior from USCIS that helps in clearing us from this awkward limbo situation.
They might thinking to deport you asap!!!!!!!! Just kidding!!! I dont have much hope from these guys. My finger print medical expired last year and I didn't get any letter or call.
Anyway having + Attitude and is good thing.

I would advise you to look at RFE very carefully, Sometimes they issue RFE that may read to include more than one kind of proof so you may be able to submit alternative proofs such as affidavits, wedding pictures, wedding invitaion etc. I am just throwing an idea here.
I got a chance to take a look at 140 RFE that was issued recently. The language used was pretty broad for certain kind of proof they were requesting. You may have a chance to submit alternatives.

Any idea of how many number of I-140s ? May be 50000+. It looks like it might take at least an year to process these I-140s in NSC/TSC. TSC is faster when compared to NSC, where the priority dates has not been moving, at least for EB1/EB3. What do you say ?
A trivial question: Do they process I-140s based on labor filed date (priority) or I-140 filed date ?
Hopefully they will reinstate PPS for I-140 after they are done with receipting the July/Aug applications.
Good luck to everyone.

I-140 is processed a per RD (I-140 filing date).

Mumbai consulate.
They asked for zero documents.
I had taken a ton of documents
Salary slips
Tax returns
I129 petition copy
H1 approval
Name it I had it
But he asked me nothing
Does mumbai consulate still require you to submit documents in advance (4-5 days) of the interview date ?

Your employer cannot revoke approved I-140 after 180 days of filing of I-485. AC21 portability law clearly says that. Your employer is playing with the lifes of employees. He cannot win any case in this situation. You better look for another employer and move ASAP. Also, you cannot keep PD as it is somebody else's PD. Eventhough you/your can try appealing with no chances of winning, but you/your employer is trying to spoil the life another person who got GC.
employer can withdraw I-140 any time. A withdrawl after 180 days of 485 filing should not impact the original beneficiary.
However these cases of substituted beneficiary using an I-140 when the underlying labor has been already been used by someone else for an approval, is a very gray area. USCIS has denied such cases in the past. search for "AC-21" + "mitosis" on Google to see various theories and threads about this...
I would second the suggestion to let this go, but talk to a very good immigration attorney like Murthy/Rajiv Khanna. A 30 minute consultation might be a worthwhile investment.

Does it mean that these developments or should we call no developments on the high skilled immigration front in the developed countries have an underlying message for all of us? Return back to your home countries.... In USA, one positive thing was that it has been 'the melting pot' of people of all cultures and nationality to come together. I will give you an example: my friends 2 year old says that he is an American and not his native origin. In UK, you will still find 3rd generation people telling their nationality to be of their native oigin.
In USA, the immigrants intergrated with the society but in Europe, the message is clear, you are here that is ok, but live in the other side of the city and have limited opportunities. If Sensenbrenner and co have their way, US would be on the same path.

reliable source says July applications will be accepted until July end and everything will be current in August bulletin also.
reliable source - lawyer knows someone on---
That's the key word here. ....I don't believe in "reliable" sources. I need to see the outcome.

In fairness to the OP, he/she said that "...while TSC filer are getting ead adn AP as SOON AS THEY GET RECEIPT...." (emphasis mine).
He/she didn't mean to say that NOT GETTING any receipt is good as long as you get your EAD.
No Hard Feelings...as some body said earlier Grass Is Green on Other Side..
You can't say "In-Justice" because of diff priority..NSC thought to let every body get receipt first then work on EAD's and AP's. So they are issuing those faster.
TSC is working on both parallel.
Same people they would have been on other side of situation wud have said that It's better to receive the receipt first than EAD.

Hi cooldudesfo,
I am just curious that how come you got your EAD and AP approved, since the current processing dates for California Service Center are as follows-:
I-765 Application for EAD (pending I-485) is 11 Weeks
and
I-131 Application for Travel Document is April 18, 2007
Have you received both the documents in hand? I am concerned because I have plans to travel back home in december and am not sure if i will have AP in hand by then.
Thanks.
I am in the exactly same situation.
I talked to my Attorney and they are going to send me Originla I-485 receipt notice. What they told me the RD on original notices is July 2, 2007.
If this is true, then I will just ignore the Aug 28, 2007 RD on my Transfer Notices.
Try to get your original I-485 from Attorney and check out what the RD is on them....
An please post here if you find anything else.
I have my EADs and APs approved already.

Kufloyd: Did you also see a change in LUD on your spouse's (assuming you filed for dependent) I-485?
The reason i ask that question is that i am exactly in same boat as you are. Case was transferred back and forth between NSC and CSC and it's finally pending at NSC and i saw a soft LUD on my I-485 today, but no change on my wife's I-485. Do don't know, if there's a pattern to it?

unfortunately you can't speak to anyone over the 1-800# at the Service Centre. Your boss/employer only has to call the service centre and follow up as to what is happening with the case..otherwise you r losing each day with no result...
either the RFE is complicated for which your boss doesnt want to callup INS r what follow up with them..if i94 expires beyond 240 days you will be in more trouble

USCIS cannot generate visas out of thin air, nor can it waive the per-country cap. Its job is to implement the law, not to make them. It does, however, have the ptoential to do a LOT of harm, thanks to its notorious inefficiency. It is a telling statement on our current sorry state of affairs that USCIS is the least of our concerns at the moment.
Sometimes I think that rather than writing to these politicians ,we should write to USCIS.This retrogression is caused by them.They didn't wait for any bill to be passed for this retrogression.There is no use of talking to politicians,they don't care.
I know that USCIS will not care either but USCIS did it out of nowhere ,till sep2005,everything was fine for them and suddenly in oct 2005,they put us in backward direction.Now after a year and a half ,we are at the same spot,waiting for the visa bulletin and staying depressed for a day or two after seeing it.
I don't know .I am so mad at everybody.
Sorry for the ranting.
Btw,i have already sent emails to USCIS and chicago tribune regarding this .

P.S sorry for the rant - but some of the threads are really disappointing... EB2 vs EB3, Masters vs Non-masters....
You don't have to be sorry. If there is an option to review a thread created newly by administrator before it goes to public, management should consider. Nothing will be lost if a thread takes 24 hours to go live.

hopeful gc for this insight.
we have been through this numerous times now on threads that can no longer be counted. may i request you not to create new threads for discussions that are already taking place in every conceivable corner of this forum?
i hope to see you in DC, your enthusiasm would be well directed in iv's efforts to end retrogression once and for all. just consider it...never having to worry about receipts again :-)
sounds good? let's do DC on 9/18!

I e-filed my AP recently.
I then sent my supporting documents to the address they gave. The interesting thing is that they actually give in the address - e-filed 1-131. This presumably passed the intial mailroom stuff.
I also got my receipt number instantly and the notice is mailed to me. It can also be tracked online.
Now I wait to see whether e-filing is quicker or not. Maybe not, the only thing I can say is that I got my receipt !
