Filed online on Dec 20 for both me and my wife. Send additional docs in 1 week. EAD and AP approved on Feb 23. Nebraska center. Only sad thing is EAD and AP are not in one card. I got EAD approved for 2 years, but AP for only 1 year in paper form.
Can anyone offer suggestion if I should call USCIS why they did not give it in a single card. 'coz I thought they were supposed to issue both the EAD and AP in one card starting Feb 11. I applied for both together.

It usually takes a long time for them to fix their own mistakes. So do not lose sleep over it. Write to the director of the service center. If that does not help, complain to CIS Ombudsman

Like this one a lot. I agree with Queen that it would be interesting to see one of the pots colored. Might try rotating the image so the pipe on the right is vertical. 2 deg. CW did it for me. Squares up the image better. Nice shooting.

Just today, I spoke to one of my freind, he is also from Bangladesh and his PD is sometime in 2006. He got his GC. So it could very well be true. If you want PM me and I can give you his phone number, you are his compatriot after all.
I'm from Bangladesh and my PD is May 2006....EB3
I applied for my I485, I765 and I131 in July 2, 2007. Then me and my wife received the I765 approval in couple of months then the real drama began.
In October i received the letter about our i131 denial. The reason for the denial was approval of I485 (I485 approval news was mentioned in my i131 denial letter). My lawyer then told me to wait couple of months to receive my cards. I waited but didn't receive anything. The I called the USCIS and they told me that there is no update in the system and they requested me to go to the local immigration office to notify the matter. After visiting the local immigration office they asked me to write a status request letter to USCIS.
Me and lawyer already wrote 4 letters to USCIS requesting the status of my i485 as my i131 got denied. Finally one of the cases status for i131 showing online that you’re RFE has been received and case has been resumed; and the other one is still case denied. On the other hand the i485 for both mine and my wife's case still showing like it was showing six months ago..."received and pending"........
I’m totally confused in this present situation. USCIS never requested for any RFE against my i131, so why they put in the online status that the RFE has been received. All I did was requested for the I485 applications as they mentioned in my i131 denial letter that my i485 got approved……
Some help here will be highly appreciated…….thanks in advance

Great job, Salil. Can you share your experience working with the press? Was it easy getting the newspaper to carry this article, or did you have to pursue this for a long time? The reason I am asking this is, its hard for one to determine what the media will print. They may take one quote from you but might use it in a different context. I came very close to quoting on Seattle Times but stayed put as the reporter wanted my opinion on the "other" current debate that's going on, and she was not willing to carry an article on Legal immigration alone.
sertasheep,
I had emailed 4-5 different reporters (Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Dallas, Houston) who had recently published articles on immigration. The reporter from Tulsa emailed me back the same day (within a few hours) saying that he is interested in the "legal immigration" angle and would like to pursue it if I was willing to be interviewed and be photographed. I set up a time and place for the interview and the photo.
I had two conditions that the reporter agreed to:
1) He would not use my employer's name, and
2) After he finalizes his story, he would read back all my quotes to me to ensure no misquotations.
He graciously complied with both my requests. I was surprised to see front page coverage. I sent a Thank you email to the reporter after the article was published. He told me that various people (legal immigrants) from the Tulsa area had contacted him after reading the article and wanted to know more about Immigration Voice.
Let me know if I can be of further help.
Good luck,
Salil

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for your replies. I called a couple of lawyer offices and this is the response i got.
For the candidate to switch jobs here are the rules:
1) The labour in the new company should be filed 365 days BEFORE the end of the second H1B.
AND
2) To keep getting 3 year extentions, your I-140 in the First company should be approved
AND
3) The First company should NOT revoke your existing Green Card application.

Yes. Chem2 is right. Your salary should be matching with your H1B LCA. GC LCA salary is supposed to be for future job. I also have the same issue and I confirmed it with my lawyer and Others too. Is your I-140 approved ?

Go for SBI Global link ... best exchange rate and cheapest. They take 4 business days though. I never had any problem sending to any bank in India through SBI Global link. You (or your parents) do nto need an SBI Account to use this
Yes, as I said that SBI is the best compare to others, I am using their service from past 3 years, I have no issues so far....evry time they are accurate with exchange rate....yes no cheating at all, I have used ICICI before, but most of the time they are not reliable....

Was just going back down memory lane...
In the 80's - most of 90's, traveling to the US (as a visitor) was so off limits; not because of visa issues or that there wasn't someone to visit here, but for the simple reason that middle class or even upper middle class in India just couldn't afford or justify the expense. Those were the days when highly educated people, having a very stable income source used to feel proud that they have booked a Bajaj scooter (delivery would take years!). Owning a color TV was remarkable, traveling to a foreign country was just unfathomable!
So much has changed in these past 10-15 years!

New filings will not effect to move the dates either you file on 1st or 30th. The Visa(GC) numbers will be deducted only after the approval of I-485. Any of these new filings will not be touched(Approved) for 4-5 months. USCIS has to consume the balance visas(GCs) before October 1st 2007.
If The Number of Visas > The number of Approved + To be approved(Mostly filed at least 4-5 months before) in the coming months.....then you can expect further movement from the State Department..
Ask(Pray) the USCIS(God) not to approve any 485's till June 15th....
So...there will not be any change in the movement of dates even all of them file on the day 1....Keep watching the approvals till June 10th atleast...
Sree
What you said might be correct, but following the USCIS pattern these days we really can't predict anything. I am still surprised how they freezed these dates for so many months and suddenly opened up these flood gates. Not sure what rules they are following.
They also banned the labor substitution premium processing over night without any notice. :rolleyes:
Now with this new bill drama we can't predict anything.

hey unitednations:
She had the B visa all along so there is no issue of her telling the truth or not on the visa app.
I have looked into the V visa before as well, and as we know, it is not applicable since I filed the I-130 July, 2006.
The present situation is that we just booked a ticket for her and the baby to head home on March 17th (the I-94 expires March 24th.) The hope is to receive good news on the grad school application and commence the work on the F-1. Thanks for your inputs so far guys..

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), other allied state and
federal agencies.
Several categories of EB immigrant visa (Green Card) numbers were
unavailable ("retrogressed") since the fall of 2005. 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 for any employer-
this was still a welcome change. Especially, for dependent spouses who are
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.
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. Hundreds
of millions of dollars were spent by thousands of immigrants in
preparation of their application. 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. These are people that are in the country
legally, paid taxes and followed all the rules.
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 with the
hope that people who played by the rules will be rewarded.
Sincerely,
XX
