I congratulate everybody for getting the opportunity to file 485.I am truely happy for u guys.
I am one of the very few people who can not apply for 485 as I have just changed my company and labour yet has to be filed.
I just wanted to to know Is it still possible that they will bring some kind of amendment(From CIR bill) which wouldn't allow me to extend my H1 Visa after 6 years?.I am so scared when I read on numberusa that some amendments are coming back to vote.Are we really in trouble?.
I just need some lodgical reasons that it won't happen.
I know everybody is busy but don't forget about people like us.

My company applied for my L1B petition in 2007 which was approved and I got an L1 visa in Mar 2007 which was valid until Aug 2009. However I traveled to the U.S only in December 2008. Since my L1 visa was expiring by Aug I applied for a L1 extension in May 2009. This was rejected in August due to some confusion with the I-94. So I had to travel back to India in Aug 2009.
I then applied for a fresh L1 visa based on my company's L1 Blanket petition. I got this new L1 visa in Sep 2009 and returned back to the U.S. This new visa is valid until Sep 2011.
My question is can I apply for another L1 extension?
Will my visa duration or stay duration be considered when applying for another extension?
I have stayed in the U.S on L1 status only from Dec 2008 - Am I not allowed 5 years?
Also I am not sure whether I have exhausted my quota of extensions. Will my case be considered as 2.5 years the first time and 2 years extension the second time?
Or will the Blanket visa be considered a fresh start allowing me another extension?
Also what will happen if I transfer to H1 at this point of time ... will my L1 stay duration or my L1 visa duration be considered when deciding the H1 visa validity?
Please help with some answers...

Any adverse effect on GC process? Pl. help.

No difference. You pay more for 1 yr textensions as you have to do 3 times as compared to 3yr extension. No lawyer will advise you to go for 1 yr if you have an approved I140....

Do we get a notice to get biometrics done when you apply for EAD renewal?
My wife and I have a EAD renewal RD of June 23, 2008 at NSC. We have not gotten any LUD after that. Anybody knows how long it takes to get the EAD?
Thanks for the help guys..

If I-140 has been approved, would it still be fine to apply for transfer from H1-B to F1 status by using form I-539 & university issued I-20 ? How long does it take to transfer status from H1B to F1 ? When can one start school �. Only after I-539 approval or after only applying ?
For pursuing an MBA, does it matter if one is on F1 or H4 (spouse is on separate H1)?
Please look at Zima's post in For NIW and OsR applicants (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=3081) forum.
You can get an answer to the second question by asking the International Student Office of the University. That answer will be more reliable then the answer from a lawyer.

If you don't have photo copy then ask your lawyer, they always keeps copy of 485 documents before sending to USCIS. you should be able to get another one from India.
Hi folks,
My baddest of the bad phases started recently when I lost my wife's birth certificate from India. Worst part is we dont have backup (no photo copies of it).
Anyways, We are waiting in the 485 queue, working on EADs. Question to all folks, do still need birth certificate now for the green card process, as we have already sent the application?
And how bad it is with redtape/corruption in India, to get another birth certificate from my wife's birth hospital, when we try by ourselves (I mean not involving our/her parents), when we visit India next time (maybe for a month)?
Appreciate your responses..

Your post from yesterday was denigrating a certain set of people. A number of our users also complained about that post.
Please do understand that we do not want to have any post that offend other people. Otherwise the lawmaker's staff and the media folks who visit our forums, will assume that our organization and members stand for such a stance.
So as per our posting guidelines shown at the top, we were forced to delete it.

Gurus,
I just received my EAD now. Though I am a 485 july filer, applied for EAD only in January.
My 6 th year H1 will come to end in Oct. Because 180 days since 485 filing is over, I want to use AC21 and change the Employer now, and I am thinking why to go again for H1. I have the EAD, and why not use it, though I will be joining another desi employer.
Does it seem the right thing to do? But everyine else I know changing the employer but again going for H1. Then why at all we have EAD.
I understand that if GC is rejected, and if we are on H1, we don't have to leave. But if GC is rejected, I really don't care. Even if I get the GC, I want to go to Mera Bharath Mahaan.
1. What are your thoughts on this?
2. One thing I am still not clear on is: If EAD renewal is delayed next year, and if I don't receive the approval in time (i.e. before the expiry of my current EAD) will I be out of status because no H1 and no EAD?
3. I am thinking there is no waiting period of 180 days etc from the EAD approval date to join another employer. Please correct me if this wrong.
4. If I use EAD, what is the status of my family without H4?

I have couple of questions.
1. Did the house already pass its version of CIR bill?
I believe there will be a conference committee consisting of few house and senate members and they will come up with a bill version acceptable to both house and senate. then the bill will be voted.
So what is the time frame we are looking at to get the final bill out.. Any idea?
Even thought I am a frequent visitor of IV.org, and stuck in backlog for years.. I do not know exactly how it works.. I will really appreciate any educated guesses.
Thanks.

I just found this link (http://immigrationvoice.blogspot.com/) where this topic is already covered. Mods, please remove my post (and maybe it would make sense to create threads specific to the USCIS/DOS mess up to - at the moment it does not look very organized to me and it is hard to find information. Maybe sub-threads with "law suit", "publicity" would channel comments better?)
--------------------------------------
I only read about an article in two online newspapers but believe this whole topic should get significantly more attention. I do not know if that is going to help to get this started but I sent an e-mail to our local TV stations and hope that some may be interested and even pick it up. Again, no idea if this is going to work but I assume that if they get more e-mails regarding the same topic, interest will come up....

Hi,
With having many international operating companies in the U.S. who all employ legal alliens who are going through the "greencard process" to become legal permanent residents, the Department of State (DOS) and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) have destroyed many plans, caused significant financial loss for applicants and very likely acted against the law. Here is an open letter from congresswoman Lofgren which explains the situation a little bit more detailed: http://lofgren.house.gov/PRArticle.aspx?NewsID=1808
I think this would be well worth a few minuted report - everybody is talking about the pain that the illegal immigrants go through but (without taking away anything from that), the pain of legal alliens having to deal with the willful behavior of USCIS and DOS is not much better.
If you would be interested in more information, I would be more than happy to help.
Best regards,

(NOTE: a petition is not required for an E-1 or E-2 visa).
b. Change the person(s)' status and extend their stay since the person(s) are all
now in the U.S. in another status (see instructions for limitations). This is
available only where you check "New Employment" in Item 2, above.
c. Extend the stay of the person(s) since they now hold this status.
d. Amend the stay of the person(s) since they now hold this status.

Those planning to park at Metro Stations, note that at most stations parking is not free. Where paid, it is accessible only through SmarTrip card (a prepaid card used by regular commuters). Credit cards or any other payment methods are not accepted at these automated parking lots.
Further, as such, these lots get filled up by 8am. Sep 18 being a car-free day in DC, more cars are likely to get at these parking lots, filling them even earlier.

As a July 2007 filer, you do have to pay the $305 filing fee. The $80 biometrics fee applies only to applicants for Reentry Permits and Refugee Travel Documents. It is not required for Advance Parole.
Individuals who file for AOS after July 2007 have to pay a $1010 filing fee for the I-485, but are not required to pay filing fees for subsequent AP's and EAD's. The following is an excerpt from the USCIS website:
"Please note that, if you file Form I-485 to adjust your status as a permanent resident on or after July 30, 2007, no additional fee is required to also file an application for employment authorization on Form I-765 and/or advance parole on Form I-131. You may file these forms concurrently. If you choose to file the I-765 and/or I-131 separately after July 30, 2007, you must also submit a copy of your I-797C, Notice of Action, receipt as evidence of the filing of an I-485. If you filed your Form I-485 prior to July 30, 2007, you must pay the fees associated with Forms I-765 and/or I-131 when you file."
