Does all this mean that if you have an approved LC it will only remain valid for 45 days?!
I am waiting to file my I-140 until my PD gets closer because I don't want to risk my daughter aging out.

One step closer.
With last year crisscrossing, EB2 India most apps are cleared upto september 2004. We should not have too many in 2004 except substitution cases.
Hope it will step into 2005 in next 4 months....
Atleast 5 in my office and 5 in friend circle :-)
But I wish what you say is true that not many left in 2003.. and dates move to 2004 and then further...

Looks like they are going to use the unused EB visa numbers for FB.To me, this is family reunification bill and most likely will not have any benefit for us.
I think we need to study the bill in detail before we jump to any conclusions.
From reading the summary in the AILA website, specifically the below :
The legislation would reinforce our commitment to families and reduce current wait times in the family immigration system by:
�Recapturing an estimated 400,000 family-sponsored and employment-based visas that went unused between 1992 and 2007.
Atleast to me it seems like the bill plans on using all the unused visas from the past years and apply that towards the family quota. Not sure if that would help the EB cause.
Inputs anyone?

I have sent money using icicibank's M2I service . Usually they take 5 working days to remit the money(atleast 8 days to transfer). I made four transactions last week(mon, tue, wed, thu) and they already remitted the money using low conversion rate.
It just took less than three days to remit the money this time. Bank deliberately did this just to steal money from me. I have lost more than 35 paise per dollar and it comes close to Rs 10,000. This is ridiculous and its a big robbery.
How do i get my money back? How do i make a compliant about this bank? They have no one to assist me over the phone.
What to do now?. Rs 10,000 may look too small for us. But how can we let banks to act like a criminals.
Any help/suggestion/comment?
It happened with me too. I ended up closing the account for which i had to pay additional Rs.1800 for the reason that i did not maintain a minimum of Rs 10k in the account in India. What a rip off !

Not related, correct! - That's why he posted under 'Interesting topics' where many other non-immi topics are discussed. Those who are not interested will choose not to visit the thread by looking at the subject line.

Phani, Thanks for sharing! Th eonly reason for spending 1000 bucks is for such scenarios.
If the insurance doesn't cover these cases then Atlas America is of no use.
Thanks again!
Took Atlas America due to their "acute onset of pre-existing clause". Mom got pneumonia 3 weeks after coming to US in April last year. They declined to cover hospital bills saying it is a pre-existing condition. Doctor's opinion was she acquired it due to cold weather and highly improbable for someone to have it not get sick for 3-4weeks. Insurance did not care. Still paying the bills.

You want me to come here and argue with people who can barely speak/write good english? People who defy the basic tenets of an argument.. (attacking the person as opposed to attacking the argument)?
I urge all to read "The story of my experiments with truth" by Mahatma Gandhi (if you haven't already). While in a prison in South africa.. he spent his time in jail making a leather shoe for the white supremacist who put him in jail. This is the prime example of loving the person but fighting the ideas he stands for. This was also depicted in the move-- "Gandhi my father"
You can call me names, give me reds.. but you all know that I am standing for my rights and for what is fair.
I faced a similar opposition when we spoke against labor substitution-- fast forward 3 years.... do we all agree that labor substitution was damaging to EB immigration?
Did anyone notice that GCTest's only interest was to start a fight between EB2 and EB3 folks.
See how he opened up a thread and threw a match to light the fire so that everyone starts fighting amongst themselves and he did not post again in his own thread .
United we stand and divided we fall. This is true since life started and will be true until the end of time.

I recently saw one case where an H1B application was reopened. The LUD was updated even after being approved more than a year ago. The reason was that the company had applied for an L1 visa for another applicant and the case received an RFE and all other immigration cases of the company came under review. The new L1 visa case was denied but the old H1B approval for another applicant did not get any denial or RFE. So make sure you work for a good company and have a clean immigration case, else there are some scares along the way.Thanks Pappu.
I have already contacted my previous employer's law firm and also my current employer's law firm regarding the developement's.
As you rightly said, each case is different so it is very difficult to generaize. I did google for any similar situation, but found out that all of the cases which were reopened were for I-765 , I-485 and may be as u pointed out for I-140.
But an H1 which was approved an year ago, I have'nt heard of anysuch thing.
There has been no fraud, mis-interpretation, complaint on my part and the niether did the law firm nor the US insurance firm...I am confident about that....
Lets see what the notice says..and I will update everyone of the findings...

Logiclife made a good point "immigration right" but I dont know how this thread got morphed into marrying local and what not.
The point is your whole attitude is wrong. First lets get one point straight. We are doing this country no favour by working here nor is this country doing us any favour by letting us work here. Its a mutually benefecial scenario. Since we are contributing to this society and following all there rules we are asking for immigration rights.
To ask for something, you must first believe that you deserve it. The illegal aliens belive in there cause (even thought they broke the law) that is one of the reasons everyone talks about there cause including the senators, president and the media.
People like you on the other hand seem to belive in taking handouts and nobody cares about such people. unless we belive we truly deserver it nobody is going to give a damn about us.
I dont mean to say anything personally to you I am just addressing people who seem to disagree with logiclifes well articulated argument about immigration right.
In same vein, driving on road is privillege not a right.
With 'privillege' you have to follow existing rules religiously then if it was a 'right'.
In anycase, what we can only do with existing law is work with law makers and not protest.
Thanks again for nice discussion.

To raaj2007, just getting an EAD does not nullify your H1, but if you use EAD you loose H1. Go and check with your attorney. If you use EAD you cannot enter US using H1 or H4, you have to use Advance parole.
Adding to the replies to other post
(i) I heard after filing 485 I could change employers? Yes or no? If yes, then which state would I be in? (EAD, AP or none)?
Answer - You can change employer after 180 days of pending 485 using AC 21 and you would be in EAD and use AP to enter US
(ii) After filing 485, do I HAVE to get my wife into US before the dates retrogress again?? Whoa never heard that...are you sure?
Answer -Yes, if you dont, you would not be able to file for her if the dates retrogresses again, also to file 485 for your wife , she should be in US at the time of filing 485.
(iii) Is there no step after 485 filing that I can keep postponing to not let 485 approve (like delaying 485 fingerprinting multiple times) so that I can let 485 approve only after I am married and can bring my wife in?
Answer - No, you cannot postpone it on your own will. But if your marriage date is before 485 approval (even one day) and tour wife could not make it to US, she can come to US using follow to join process. That process is also available if PD are current. In that scenario you ask USCIS to send US consulate in India to send a notice that the principal applicant's 485 has been approved and since the marriage was before 485 approval, she should be called for Interview at the US consulate in India and given the immigrant VISA, The Follow to join process is like Consular Processing.
Hope I answered your doubts.

Well, you supported gctest by saying that EB3 consultants work for sleazy, body-shopping companies which clearly implied that EB3 consultants are third class and sleazy. Why don't you just retract the original post of yours and the reds will disappear?
Here is what I wrote.
Well, I don't think gctest is against EB3. He is against consultants from sleazy bodyshopping companies, which is right.
Tell me how did you deduce that I am saying that EB3 consultants work for sleazy, body-shopping companies and IMPLIED that they are third-class.
There is NO logical connection. It is actually YOU who is telling me that those consultants are third-class and that is visible in the quoted post above.
After this financial sector meltdown, many big brains may end up working for these sleazy firms to save their H1B, which is NOT wrong. It's again, the choices that you make. I am sure most of them would have other options too.
I am sorry, I can live with reds but I will not be a conformist.:)

Not wrong.. I said it's "being" cancelled..
No one knows for sure what the final rule is likely to be. Chances are anyone who doesn't have approved petition may be rejected once substitution is cancelled.
People sometimes don't want to believe bad news.. and this is what is going on with some desi employers and immigration lawyers..
but all signs are it's gonna happen and very soon.. maybe March 1st. I myself struggled and decided against someone who offered me in past 1 month.
