There are 2 things that you need to do and take time..
1. Apply for FBI fingerprint clearance .. You can take fingerprints in your local sheriff's office on a standard FBI form and then send it to FBI.. takes about 2 months.
2. Apply and get IELTS english score.. I think this has become standard now..

Background: Current AP expires on Oct 24 2010. I don't have the new AP yet, but I should have it soon, and I expect it to be valid from Oct 25 2010 - Oct 25 2011.
Question: Am I allowed to leave the US on Oct 20 2010 (during the validity of the old/current AP) and return on Oct 30 2010 (during the validity of the new AP) if I carry both APs with me?
Thanks!

Can some one with good english skills prepare an email with heading like
'Please approve my status from legal to ILLEGAL.' include all points from rajesh_kamisetty and any other similar questions.
And everyone in this forum can send that out to every newspaper and every senator in this country. I believe this can open their eyes little bit.
Think guys. If there is decent letter I promise that I can stay whole night to send to all these guys.

Ron is a very good person and a very competitive attorney. RK's charge was (very high) for main applicant and (still high) extra for each of the dependents. (This was on his website. check with him before you blindly believe me. Murthy never replied to my email, most likely interested only in corp clients I guess.) This was way more than I could have afford. RG charged only (fraction of what RK charges) for entire family and he offers superior service. I am 200% satisfied. I recommended him to many of my close friends for AC-21.

I heard that NSC is 45 days compliant in processing EAD. Is this true? I think it is not. Knowing NSC, it could take approximately 90 days +/- 30 days.

Chandu is one of the active folks/volunteers who is helping us more that we are helping ourselves... His push and constant nagging are coming as +ve reminder who couldn't send letter due to hectic schedule or are still Procrastinating ( there is a huge chunk of people like this ) . At the same time there are a certain gang of folks who will never send letter , never support anything - just eat the fruit of other's labor and be proud and happy !!!
My personal request to Chandu would be - Pls continue the push and nag but keep it above the beltline. Let's not create 5 threads but do the push 5 times in 1 thread.
I'm a supporter of Chandu and other IV folks like Chandu - so dont take me wrong.
Thanks for the encouraging words :) I promise, not more than 5 threads :) Come on folks lets have atleast 5 threads.
I have not been very active on this campaign because of a personal situation but want to do what I can.
At times, people just need a push. When they see 5 therads with bold topics, they do feel the push otherwise - people just carry on with hectic schedules and forget to do it even though they intended to do it.
Like a member "crystal" said sometime back "even eagles need a push to let them know that they can fly" .
I am stopping with these, but it would be great if members take it up from here.
IV is for everyone and we want everyone to participate.

If this happened to your daughter before even the july fiasco, what didfference it makes if it happenes again with the fiasco over our heads?
What kind of identity theft you think will happen and why?
When it happenes with your credit card at famous outlets, why the heck we should be too worried if it happens at USCIS?
Whatz your point?

Thank you ChanduV23
- On behalf of the Core IV Team
I am a highly-skilled professional who entered this country legally. I’ve been waiting for my US permanent resident visa -also known as "Green Card" for the past several years along with 500,000 other educated, highly skilled employment based (EB) immigrants. Many of us have been waiting for our turn to get Green Cards for 5-10 years while consistently abiding by all the laws of this country. Such long delays are due to tortuous and confusing paper work, backlogs due to various quotas and processing delays at US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) and other allied state and federal agencies.
Several categories of EB immigrant visa (Green Card) numbers have been unavailable (“retrogressed”) since the fall of 2005. Because our immigrant petitions are tied to the sponsoring employer, these delays have led to indentured servitude for several of us. Our professional prospects, job mobility and potential opportunities for entrepreneurship have been compromised.
For the past several decades, the US Department of State (DOS) has been publishing advisories known as visa bulletins once a month to announce the availability of immigrant visa numbers. On June 13, 2007, after a gap of nearly two years, DOS announced that all EB visa numbers would be “current” for the month of July. This meant, irrespective of our “priority date” (date assigned to us for our turn in the line for Green Cards), all of us were made eligible to apply for some interim immigration benefits. This “priority date” refers to the date when our labor certification (documentation verifying no US citizen worker was available for a given job) had been filed.
Please note that 6/13 DOS announcement would not have led to immediate green card for most of us; but at least it would have ensured us interim benefits such as the right to travel and right to work- this was still a welcome change. Especially, for dependent spouses who have been otherwise unable to work, this would have translated into right to travel and work without restriction and thus channel their energies positively. Several dependent spouses are also highly-skilled. This would provide them an opportunity to realize their technical and entrepreneurial expression and add to tax dollars. Additionally, this would have greatly reduced the paperwork burden on our sponsoring US employers.
Tens of thousands of applicants spent thousands of dollars in legal fees, immigration medical exams & vaccinations & getting various supporting documents ready to file our immigrant petitions to USCIS, at times inconveniencing our old parents in our home countries as well. It has been an agonizing two weeks for us. Some of us to had to fly in our spouses from our home countries or have had to cut short business trips. To our shock and dismay, on the morning of July 2nd 2007, USCIS announced that EB visa numbers were not available and all petitions filed in July would be rejected.
For the legal skilled immigrants this has been a rather traumatizing and disheartening experience.
We sincerely seek immediate congressional/ legislative remedial measures which would
(1)Reduce the enormous backlogs of green card petitions of legal skilled immigrants
(2)Ensure and request USCIS not to reject our immigrant visa petitions filed in July and provide us interim benefits of a pending immigrant visa petition. We make this sincere request on this Independence Day with the hope that people who played by the rules will be rewarded.

Ok my last attempt to convey my thoughts:
If your H1B is approved and you are granted an extension it only means that your application was approvalble at the time of filling. Now in order to maintain H1B status you should have:
1. Job with that employer who sponsored H1B
2. Income as dictated in LCA
3. Other condition such as NO DUI etc
Now what if one of the condition in the list above is:
4. Your I-140 on which the extension is granted should NOT be revoked.
I know this is not spelled out clearly, becasue in the past no one took this avenue. Now with premium processing everyone wants to do a quick PERM + 140 to get 3 more years on H1B. It is important that USCIS should clarify their stand on it, one way or the other. In fact if any of the service center sets a precedence by simply implying that one's H1B is invald after I-140 is revoked the interpretation will be cleared. Unfortunately it hasn't happend yet or I we are not aware of it. I hope they clarify it sooner than later.
That's why you have to be quick...Before your earlier employer revokes the petition...(that takes some time..) you got to get a new labor and a new approved I-140 and after that they cannot throw us out technically...
The whole thing is a mess..

I saw this on an anti immigrant site by a M*****r.
Hope some of you will learn a lesson from it and stop posting threads about Telgus, Eb3 vs Eb2.
I have also seen posts by ignorant educated illiterates on IV where they advice people to do illegal things. Some of you own consulting firms or businesses and try to promote it by posting and sending Private messages. If we see such message, let us give reds and report to IV. We also need to discourage people from answering wrong info to posts where someone is illegal/out of status. All this used against us.
Yes, Norman Matloff goes over IV once in a while to know whats the current "in thing", he mentioned this once in his newsletter.
He always goes after H1B, L1 and Eb visa. He never mentions about family based or even illegals because his wife is from China and came via family based visa (marriage).

Yes offer premium procesing of 1-485. They can charge maybe 5000$ per person.

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......
No offense to you however:
1: An infopass may and may not solve your problem (so don't count on that)
2: Not all infopass'ers are seeing your message
So - A better thing to do will be to remind USCIS of its duties by taking one/more of these actions until you get your EAD
- talk to local congress person and have them nag USCIS
- open a service request if your case is outside processing time
- send form 7004 to ombudsman
Good Luck

It is surprising that you even filed for 485. didn't your lawyers warn you ? I thought they do that by default, if you are unmarried and want to file a 485...
