Unfortunately, we are left trying to fix things ... based on these forums, I probably now know more about immigration law than some of the USCIS people. :D

Hi,
I may know the answer, but I thought i would check.
Below is my situation:
1) I-140 approved in Jan 2008
2) I-485 pending since July 2007
3) I have a 2 year EAD
Now, if I switch my job and the new employer is not ready to transfer my H1-B, can I use my EAD to work(provided my I-140 is not revoked by the previous employer)
Also, any chance that I could keep my GC application alive? what will happen when my Priority date becomes current.
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys this is interesting and useful info and AILA and AILF should take note of this.
If they approve EB3/India/APR2004 and EB2/INDIA/AUG2005 saying the dates were current on Jul1 or Jul2 , applying the same logic they can't reject applications that were files when the dates were still current. And also give fair chance to others to react between bulletins.
You are right, priderock. If indian2006 is willing, his case can be used as an example by AILF but I think we should be happy for those who got approved and spare them any more trouble.
However, looking at indian2006's case, I had one question.
If they allocated visa number on 1st July then, why was the approval done on 10th? I think in one of the earlier posts it was mentioned that they need to use it in 7 days or else return it to DOS.

I bought a D70 October 29th, and have terrible back focus problems. I've been a photographer since 1959, used Nikons since Vietnam in 1968, and know what I'm doing.
To test whether the back focus might be my fault somehow, I have had several friends use the camera without telling them what I was testing. All had awful back focus; not one low light, wide aperture image is anywhere near acceptable.
Clearly, this is a systemic problem with the D70. I had similarly disabling problems with my first two FEs when I bought them in about 1978; apparently Nikon still tests its products on its first year's customers. Back then, it caused me to change to Canons until I bought an N90s and came back to Nikon.
I might do the same thing again. It is very sad; I like my Nikons and we've seen a lot together, but this is the way a company drives its loyal customers away.

In UK today Tony Blair acknowledged the immigration issue that Indian are facing. In UK Indians were able to escalate the issue to the highest level in 2-3 months. We have been trying to escalate it past 12-15 months, but still not yest acknowledged by anyone. We need to analyze that how they were able to excalte it, but we are not able to do anything.

Hello All,
just wanted to share my Finger Printing Experience.
I am july 2nd filer, EB2.
NSC -CSC - NSC case.
Got my FP done today,
however I noticed that on my ASC notice, my SSN has been printed incorrectly.
I called USCIS and made the correction.
I was surprised & furious at the same time, by seeing this mistake from USCIS.
Their system is so bad, they are not even verifying the Name to the corresponding SSN. Had I missed to notice, I would have been stuck either at FBI name check or by a querry from USCIS later for a long long time.
Already the wait is long enough.
Anyways, dont relax just seeing your EADs and APs, watch every detail on whatever they send.
Regards
CSE
Did you ever file a Service Request for your FP?

I surely may have missed something here. Has been a bill placed already that will allow us to file 485 and get EAD?
Sorry, I am really having tough time coming to IV these days.
Its law the day when it is signed by the president unless there is clause in the bill to postpone the impelmentation.

USCIS has known to send straight denials even though they are supposed to send NOID when an employer revokes 140. There are many examples where people sent in ac21 or not.
However; in just about every case it eventually got reopened. In the mean time there are many anxious moments while waiting for uscis to reopen the case (can't get ead renewed/ if outside the country wouldn't be allowed back on AP).
USCIS sometimes takes their time reopening the case (upto 7 or 8 months). If you don't have h-1b then there is no legal basis to stay here while waiting for the case to reopen. Can't work, etc. However; if you overstay by six months and they don't reopen the case then the 3 and 10 year bars will kick in and you can kick the greencard away.
Key thing is whether employer revokes 140. If they do then it causes anxious moments. USCIS has also started to revoke approved I-140's on their own when companies respond to rfe's on other candidates 140's (ie., ability to pay for all people together). If uscis revokes it on their own then ac21 does not protect you at all.
I think we are confusing multiple issues here. Once the 6 month period is over where the I-140 is approved and the I-485 is pending for 180 days it does NOT matter if the employer revokes the I-140 or not. You are good to go! (Unless ur a classified terrorist or a criminal).
The only question is, Can you still get a 3 year extention based on a I-140 that is revoked? I am thinking that may be an issue. In that scenario, you would be forced to play the EAD card.

She should have tried through the emergency quota/appoinment to get her stamping.. Death in immediate family is a accepted for this and I know a colleague you had to go for India for the very same reason, death in the family and returned back after getting his stamping. Got his appointment through EQ. If you fear to get stamped in India, then you can blame the appointment to be 4 months away, etc.. etc...
The article posted is touching, but out lives are not that bad .. We are far more better and we do have a good life.
I do not think one would not go to India just because he/she is scared to get a stamp in India. The loss of someone dear to you can overcome any such fears one might have (for me atleast thats applicable).
In any case, I did not know (neither did my collegaue) of the emergency quota. Thanks for sharing that with us and thanks to forums like these, every day is a learning experience.

I was just thinking, the wastage of visa numbers we see, is that basically due to the per country quota. The rule that no country can have more than X% of GC's in a year, would mean that even though there are visa's available, they cannot be alloted due to that per country limit.
Anyway the smaller number of application is good news.
-AD
The wastage is due to handicap USCIS, they dont make basic calculations for the visa numbers used per year.
To give u an example, lets say they have to give x amount of visa, they just process x number of apps and at the end of the FY some people are still struck up in other processes like Name check etc. So those numbers who are struck up, get wasted.

I had an LUD on Nov 30th (Date when they received response to RFE) saying case processing has resumed. I also have another LUD on Dec 2nd. But the status still says case processing resumed. Does anyone know why there are 2 LUD's even though the case status is the same. Does it mean anything?

If I plan to use EAD instead of H1/H4... Do I still need to maintain I-94??
This is a very valid question for spouses on H4 using EAD... When their H4 I-94 expires, they won't get a new I-94 unless travel outside country... This is little confusing.. May be we've some one with better knowledge about this issue...

First, ask HIM to go back where he came from in 1939-1945 during Nazi regime. This land is not owned by anybody, this is a LAND OF IMMIGRANTS. No one is native anyway, so what the heck !!
