Total BS. Do you know how the market is. We have 2 open positions (dot net developers) that I am trying to fill up. We have got over 200 resumes in less than a week.
So many consulting companies are offering H1-B resources at 40 to 50 dollars per hour.
Wake up and smell the coffee.
Hello.. Read my msg. again. I hiring managers are prefering onsite over offshore. Your reply doesn't prove anything otherwise..

How come there is pending cases in 2007, 2008 and 2009 for EB2 and EB3 India?
From the PDF I see the following

2008 - 178
2009 - 9
EB3
2007 after july fiasco - 466
2008 - 88

There have been threads and posts about IOs indicating that everyone will become current. The fact of the matter is - there is no substance/proof/backing - even from the lawyers regarding the validity of those statements. For all you know, this might have been started by groups/people who want us to become complacent.
So DO call.............else the bills stand a good chance of losing out.
And even assuming the rumors are true with a 0.00001% probability.........you don't really lose anything much by calling. But if you don't call, we still stand a chance (with 99.9999% probability) of losing out.
Honestly; this might be our last chance. If the next president is a Democrat, it is quite possible that illegals might get amnesty in huge numbers. Companies hiring H1s might get taxed at a higher rate. Irrespective of who comes to power, the next president could clamp down on legal immigration in the name of Change. Remember, the illegals (their legal relations) form a larger vote bank. Nothing else matters as far as politicians are concerned.

But if your visa is stamped and not expired, do you still need an AP ?
Anurakt,
If a person has filed an I485 and has a valid H1 visa stamp in his/hers passport, no AP is needed when traveling as h1 is a "dual intent" visa. This applies to H1 and L1 visas. When leaving this country when I485 is pending, the I485 will not be deemed as abondomed because one travels on a "dual intent" visa. IF one, however, had filed an I485 while being on a diffrent type of a visa, like F1, or B2, one MUST obtaint AP before leaving. Other wise the person will NOT be able to re-enter the country even if one has a valid F1 or B2 visa and the I485 will be deemed abandomed. This is because by filing the I485, he/she has shown an immigrant intent, and both F1 and B2 don't allow for such intent.
So many people don't realize that a H1 or L1 are very POWERFUL visas.
I am not an attorney so do not take my answers for granted.

Hi friends,
My husband and me work for the same company now. He applied in EB3 (India) and PD date with December 2006. I-140 approved and I-485 applied in July 2007. Got EAD and AP for both but still working on H1B (Not used EAD and AP).
From other company, in 2007, I applied for labor substitution and it is approved yesterday, which has PD Nov 2004 (EB3 - India). One of my friend working for this company and I got the reference last moment and I was not hoping for this approval.
Now I have to switch to this company as the company management are asking me to join the company. I read many threads in this forum and this thread too about multiple filings of I485s and withdraw one while applying other.
I read some people had no problems with multiple I-485s. But Murthy's advice is against this while others like Rajiv in favour of this.
Please advice me what could be the best in my case.
I have PG in engineering (CS) from India.
Thanks in advance

My Experience (PIMS):
I was interviewed at Mumbai Consulate on 28th Dec. At the interview I was told that I will receive an email from the consulate within 24-48 hrs at which time I will have to resubmit my passport at any one of the western US VFS centers along with the email and the yellow paper and a photo copy of my I-797.
I gave my passport to one of my friends in Mumbai and continued with the rest of my trip. Till date I have not received any emails from the consulate.
Any body in similar situation and any tips on what should be the next course of action.
Thanks.

Can somebody please answer my question?? does anybody have experience filing the I-485 themselves instead of using a lawyer???
also, what is advance parole?? and why it is needed?? Thanks
I think you should be able to file the 485 yourself. The form is simple. If you can get a lawyer to do it and get all the appropriate 140 approval docs- the better, but I don't foresee any issues "doing-it-yourself".
Advace Parole is a travel document that lets you return back into the US without a H1B stamp on your passport. The AP has to be renewed every year along with the EAD (employment authorization doc) card.
Hope this answers your question. -- Now lets go back to sending faxes and calling senators.

And to think just sometime back we had an action item to send mails saying "Give us GCs and we will buy houses and help the economy"! What a joke!! For all the labels of highly skilled/highly educated etc. that we shower ourselves with we are no better than those idiots and irresponsible people who bought houses far beyond what they can afford and ran away putting their keys in mailboxes when going got tough.
To the original poster: You asked an advise on an open forum. You asked a favor. You can't dictate terms like just tell me options and not your opinion etc.when you ask a favor. You don't like what people have to say about you, don't ask them for help. That's the way it works. Other people have every right to be upset with you as if and when you foreclose you will be asking taxpayers - and that's us - to foot your bill.

Vonage won't affect any wireless connections.
Do you use a cordless phone ?
The wireless transmission from your cordless phone maybe affecting the transmissions from your wireless router.
Yeah, am using a cordless phone. I dont remember but even with corded phone I guess I had this issue. And the cordless phone is DECT 6 phone which shouldn't interfere with the wireless connection that is at a different frequency.
And what alternatives do you feel could solve this problem?

I called the USCIS office today. I am on H1b and my spouse is here on H4. I am filling 485 under EB2..
They said clearly that we need to submit I 864 form for support, not I 134 which few people have mentioned in this forum so far..
So I am going with I 864..
thanks,

My Guess is , It is a rumour . since the USCIS suspended the I -140 Premium Service for the month of july . It clearly indicates they are aware/expecting many of the I -485 filings from July 1st and do not want to promise I- 140 decision in 15 days during July .

That is naive... AC21 is not an administrative decision of USCIS... It is a law... AC21 = American Competitiveness in the 21st Century act!! It was passed by congress and the only body that can revoke it is congress.
USCIS cannot revoke AC21.. only congress can. Please dont be paranoid. The most USCIS can do is refuse to change their current stance on same/similar job.
Gurus, correct me if I am wrong.
i am not a guru... but CIS can easily make things more difficult for you than congress intended.
namechecks are not authorized by congress (for GC anyway), by CIS uses them to screw people anyway.
"same or similar" in AC21 is a good enough clause. Do not needle them to come up with a rigid rule, because whatever they come up with will be worse than what you have now.
At least now they have some leeway to help you, and you have _some_ chance to move in career.
jeez...

Finally, we got the approval emails for self & wife.
I had got an email from TSC.Ncscfollowup@dhs.gov last friday (09/17/2010) with the update below-
1: The review was complete
2: Visa numbers were requested 2 months ago and all security/prints are current
3: Files have been forwarded to officers for completion.
In my case the email to SCOPSSCATA@dhs.gov helped a lot. They in turn sent an email to TSC.Ncscfollowup@dhs.gov to step up the processing.
As others have mentioned IV has played a big part throughout this journey. Thank you again.
Congratulations ski_dude. Your long wait is finally over!
Is it ok to attach documents to these e-mails to TSC?
