Our AP saga got its final miracle today. (at least I think it’s the final one…) Though my spouse’s and daughter's AP were finally got approved yesterday, the miracle is that TSC has decided to expedite and overnight them, based on a fax from my father-in-law’s doctor.
The very nice lady IO at SF INS office this morning asked for our telephone numbers, and then followed up and called us on our cell phone to confirm that TSC is expediting the APS…..…and overnight-ing them!
Prior to this last miracle the journey was choppy.
We are to leave for India on Dec 26th... ..the APs were e-filed on July 12 to give TSC enough time.
Because nothing seemed to be happening I faxed TSC director (no use), another fax at TSC (not much use), made friends with a TSC rep...(great) got in touch with my Congressman George MIller's office..(fantastic), leading to the approval yesterday and then today comes the icing on the cake… the overnight-ing….
After a season of dryness, it doesn't just rain, it pours!
write to the ombudsman. So much circus for an AP? When you applied 5 months ago!!
oh, and congrats on getting your AP in time for your travel plans.

Hi
first labor approved in may 2006 under EB3
140 was approved in 2007
Since I already had masters before I joined the company
EB2 labor applied and received approval in Jan 2011
My attorney applied for 140 porting but received priority date as Jan 2011 instead of may 2006. My attorney says immigrations has made a mistake, attorney contacted them and received a reference number basically asking attorney to call back on Jun 1st. I'm concerned on what went wrong and what could be the worst case scenario. How much time are talking about here.
Any information will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
It will alright, wait for few more weeks till attorney fixes the issue.

Hi Guys,
I filed my EB3 I-140 to TSC in June 2006 and it is still pending (yes..really more than 450 days and counting...) Then in July 2007, I filed my AOS with NSC. Today, I got an email from CRIS stating that
Application Type: I140 , IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER
Current Status: This case has been sent to another office for processing.
On September 4, 2007, we transferred this I140 IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER to our LINCOLN, NE location for processing and sent you a notice explaining this action. Please follow any instructions on this notice. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you.
It is transferred to NSC because my AOS is filed with NSC? Have any one had this status change in the past? After this, how long did it tak to get your I-140 approved?
I am just curious because can I feel happy that atleast some progress? As you know, I am waiting for my I-140 for more than a year...

Folks,
It is outrageous that NSC is not churning out any post April 2004 approvals for EB2-I. Is any one is taking any actions?
What can be done?
How do you know that NSC is not processing the post April 2004 EB-2 cases? any source like infopass or calling the customer service?

Hi,
My current Attorney could not inform my employer for H1B RFE. H1B RFE supposed to be submited by May 25th. however Attorney only informed today about the RFE. Employer needs a week to submit RFE. can we submit RFE after RFE submission date ?
Thanks

They might accept the application but send in an RFE with a request to pay the difference ;)
Wish USCIS accepts applications after 27th and ask for the fee difference .. Win Win for all if the fee was the concern for USCIS .. hehe:D :D

Guys I need your expertise and valuable answers on this:
I have an approved labor and approved I-140. Based on this I've got extension for 3 more years. I have a contract-hire opportunity which requires me to be a consultant for "X" months. I know I can transfer my H1 to another company. But my question is, can I transfer my h1 again to join the client after "X" months.

Hi
Company "a" applied for my h1b on 7th april 2009. They got an RFE in june and informed us yesterday of the same after lots of phone calls.I am not interested in working with them anymore (because of their lack of communication and bad feedback from other employees)
Meanwhile company "b" is ready to file a new h1.Can they do that.
Do i have to tell company "b" that i filed with company "a" initially but they got an rfe .
what is the correct way to file new h1
Thanks

Thanks for the reply. But I have not yet received the approval. I have just received the receipt of H1B transfer application, and I am worried if they would not approve H1B transfer application since middle name has a typo. Please reply.

Hi
I came US on h4 visa .One employer had filed for my h1b last year,and they said i got the approval.but the employer had no job for me as part of recession.So I am still on h4 .Will I loose my H1 approval.How long is the validity of h1b approval ?:confused:
You need to be careful here. If the H-1B was approved as a change of status (COS) last year, you may have automatically changed to H-1B status on the start date. If you did not work for the employer, you then violated H-1B status.
If the H-1B was not approved as a COS, you have stayed in H-4 status. The H-1B approval could be used to get a H-1B visa, however you would need a letter from the H-1B employer confirming that there was still a job for you. The consulate would probably need this since it has been a year since the H-1B was approved. Otherwise, the H-1B is valid until the expiration date, unless the employer revokes it with CIS.

I quote:
"We have also improved our legal immigration system by reducing backlogs of immigration applications and devoting critical funding to promote innovative citizenship preparation and integration programs in communities throughout the country."
Any idea what they are talking about in terms of backlog reduction?
Cases waiting for visa numbers are not considered as backlogged. USCIS only terms cases pending processing as backlogged cases.

I have I-140 approved and also based on I-140, I have 3 years H1B approved which expires in 2010.
My I-485 was rejected and I have re-submitted which is obviously pending and not further news on that (refiled on 10/10/07 at CSC)
I have following questions:
1. If I want to travel to INDIA for 6-8 weeks, Is there any problem?
2. Can I get H1B VSIA stampled at BOMBAY?
3. Do I need any other document except H1B approval notice & I-140 approval notice?
4. Do I need to mention about I-485 been filed?
Please help. Thank you in advance.

1. Will not work as you are already out of status due to the denial
2. If the I-94 is valid till 11/9/2009 - Nov 9, 2009, If this I-94 is from the previous employer that already has revoked the H1b, it literally does not have any meaning as you are not maintaining your H1b with that employer or working for them.
3. Not even a possibility as H1b portability requires that you are currently in status.

I am planning to change jobs within the next 30 days and my I-140 is currently in process (filed October 2010). I have applied for I-140 premium processing last week and expect to have a response from USCIS by May 6 2011. My new employer is not sure that they can transfer the H1B since I have an I-140 in process with my current employer. The H1B with current employer expires on July 30 2011.
Question:
- Can I transfer H1B to new employer while I-140 is in process with current employer? Can the new employer file for H1B extension after transfer while current employers I-140 is in process? Current employer has confirmed that they do not withdraw the I-140 while it is in process or after it is approved even if employee leaves the job.
- Is it better to transfer H1B after the I-140 has been approved and once transfer is done, file for H1B extension right away? Can the new employer use the old employers I-140 to get a 3 year extension?
Guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I am in the same boat. My wife 485 just got filed with me as dependent so I am holding off on sending mine in. I read that this is a very gray area, and at least fragomen claims that they have had cases in which both 485 applications were rejected because of this dual filing.
