IV members should take the moral high ground refrain from making frivolous calls to USCIS, so that genuine issues get addressed quickly by USCIS.
You don't want to be holding up the lines over a LUD when someone is waiting for a USCIS customer rep over a denied I-485.

AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
Today the Immigration Policy Center (http://www.immigrationpolicy.org/) of the American Immigration Council, (http://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/) along with the Center for American Progress (http://www.americanprogress.org/)issued a report confirming what many people of rationale mind (including the vast majority of Americans) already knew--It would be an economic disaster to deport 12 million people. The loss of this vital economic element would cause a loss to the U.S. Economy of over 2 TRILLION dollars over the next 10 years. Hey, I think that is real money!
Raising The Floor For American Workers (http://www.immigrationpolicy.org/sites/default/files/docs/Hinojosa%20-%20Raising%20the%20Floor%20for%20American%20Worker s%20010710.pdf), written by UCLA Professor Dr. Ra�l Hinojosa-Ojeda, highlights the economic reality of the the undocumented population in the United States, how tied in they are to the economic engine of the United States, and what an economic nightmare we, as Americans, would deal with if we followed the failed deportation-only policies advocated by immigration restrictionists.
More importantly, Dr. Hinojosa-Ojeda found that not only is a comprehensive reform of our immigration laws (involving BOTH a legalization component AND a an actual workable immigrant visa plan) an economic necessity, it will actually raise the wage floor for all American workers. Frankly, its about time someone looked at the numbers here and ran verifiable scenarios, and did not just play around with easily manipulable census data.
Now, do you think anyone in Congress will read this? Will it change any minds? Ultimately, it is only us, those that understand the human cost of bad immigration policies, that can convince people reluctant to fix our broken immigration system on humanitarian grounds, that it is in our own ECONOMIC interest to makes these necessary changes. Let's get to it.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/186823568153827945-2183881679788051590?l=ailaleadership.blogspot.com

a) Can he hold on to his EB3 priority date..though the new petition would be filed under EB-2 ?
Yes, I know a lot of ppl have asked this question in the wake of the retrogession that we are all sufferning through ?
Yes, you can hold on to the priority date if you have copy of approved I-140 and you old company doesn't revoke the I-140.
b) If this Company B were to file for H1-B , as I understand it would count towards the 2007-2008 quota which opens on April 1st '07...does this scenario also force you to not start working till Oct'07 (which is when ppl who file in the 2007-08 quota are supposed to start working).
If you are already on a H1 and are only doing a H1B transfer, it will not not count towards quota (unless your current H1B is for non-profit org and new H1B is for a for-profit org). You can start working as soon as you get the receipt. But, if you are applying for a fresh H1B, it will count towards quota and you will have to wait till Oct 07 before starting to work.

Thanks Elaine for the quick reply. He worked for a non-profit organisation earlier so either way he'll be cap subject. He might need to come here on B1 and would it possible to convert from B1 to H1 after coming to US or will he need to go back to INDIA and appy for H1 visa at the consulate. One benefit of converting in US would be to find the right employer given the economic conditions.
Does his previous stay on F1 & H1 help anyway that he has fair intentions to work here legally while requesting from B1 to H1 or is it recommended to do so while in US and apply for H1 from home country only.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Which part of address change trigger RFE
1) Submitting AR11
OR
2) Changing address for pending 485.
Will any one at USCIS does anything/do processing/look into it, if you just submit AR11.
Thanks
Address change does not trigger an RFE all the time.
I changed my address recently. Had soft LUD on my I-1485 but no RFE.

So we need to choose local lawyers only? we don't have any options to Non-Local(Other State) lawyers?
This is I am assuming you have given USCIS your NJ address, every Lawyer has to have License in the State he practices, if your CA Lawyer has a License to practice in NJ you can always call him to represent you. If this helps.

Gurus,
I will be travelling to India and the airlines is AirIndia via Frankfurt. FYI, my US visa expired in 2007 have valid I797 (until Oct 1st, 2010). Do i need to obtain a visa to travel via franfurt. AirIndia flight stops for couple of hours in Frankfurt to re-fuel.
Also as you can see my I797 is valid for six more months (company will apply for renewal) but will it be safe to visit India and get stamped for Six months valid document (I797).
My wife is on H4, is only she travels will it be ok from visa stamping standpoint. If there is risk, i will not travel but she has to due to family emergency.
Any input/advise is appreciated.
Thanks

I saw in some forums that the O�Net Code was revised down grading the Specific Vocational Preparation level of most IT jobs to greater than 2 years and up to and including 4 years.
In this way, I read that the key to apply under EB2 is only being �Research� : research into fundamental computer and information science.
Can I be a Software Engineer/Researcher?
Please advise, I am lost
Thank you

As soon I got the receipt number, I started working for Company B. Now I have paystubs for almost 8 months. With those pay stubs, can i transfer to company C? If Company C files for a H1 transfer, with which H1B receipt will he file for transfer-H1B approval copy of employer A or H1B receipt of employer B? My attorney feels that my H1 transfer petition with Company B has got stuck in a security/background check, since USCIS has not responded to 2 SR's placed by my attorney and added that PP will not help if my petition got stuck in security check.

Hi California members,
There is an IV action item to fight recent practice of USCIS in denying I485 applications in some AC21 cases. For more info, please visit:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22182
It�s a serious issue which can affect many of us, please act now and send letters (letter formats and everything else is ready in the thread quoted above). It will only take a few minutes of your time.
State chapter leader,
Please try to bring attention of your state members to this IV core approved effort.
Thank you.
CAn you tell me the logic of posting multiple threads with this subject - wont just bumping the thread give you the same effect - this is really irritating

How will you do that? I guess, while working on cases, user has to click somewhere to send an email. If they choose not to, then there will be no email. In my case, I never saw consistency in getting emails. I don't think that is a big issue, just check your status periodically. Bigger and important issue is how to get your case processed faster, and in sequence.
USCIS online case status system broken, My AP receipt numbers are not showing up online. we need to alert concerned USCIS authorities directly or thru IV's contacts in USCIS or thru AILA.

HI,
My aunt petioned for my mom (and thus her kids) years ago, My aunt's a Us citizen, and after many years the process has started its final run. For the last two years i was an F1 student in a college in the usa and recently ive come back home; while i was there i married randomly anyway, nothing happened it wasnt a real marriage, and im getting it annuled.
So now im back home and since this process (my aunts petition) has started , im 21 but im covered aswell since the child status protection act covers me. Now, the requirements for the children (derivative beneficiaries) of the aplicant/beneficiary (my mom) to be included are to be under.. 21 (im ok in this part because of CSPA) and UNMARRIED. My question is,,, am i still gonna be included if i show my annulment certificate? as i see it the annulment itself shows that an american court declared that marriage to be voidable and not real so it should make me unmarried.right? would it also be unmarried for immigration purposes if it was divorce instead of annulment? i'd appreciate any feedback, thank you.

Just like the the department of Homeland Security has USCIS to make sure that only very few highly-skilled immigrants get visas (thus causing the USRBD), they should also have the "Agency for USRBD" to counter the damage caused by USCIS. Don't let the RBD suck you in like it sucked Pablo in! Let's go make our voices heard in DC!!

this is what i think... i am no expert.
wait until you get ur SSN before you file.
you would have to file 2009 as F1 (so 1040NR) NR meaning non resident.
2010 onwards you file as a resident (for tax purposes) so that means you file regular 1040.
Have you ever filed a tax return before? If so do you havean ITIN (in lieu of SSN)?
