Hi,
I got the standard RFE
1) End date in client letter
2) EE relationship
3) show project validity till h extension requested( 3 years)
RFE response to be received on or before July 10 2010
With all problems from vendor and client i was able to get letters but my lawyer sent the packet on July 9 and when I was tracking the status it says that UPS due to some unforeseen reason will now deliver this packet on 7/12 ..2 days after deadline, the packet has sent date 7/9 and was marked next day AIR
My question is
) Am I screwed in this case and my H1 is gone. current H1 period expires 07/15
2) Or will USCIS will accept the respnse since it was posted before on 7/9
I am so mad at my lawyer but looks like H1 is gone and I have to pack my belongings ...
any advice please
It might be possible. Otherwise you can go for appeal if the approval goes south.

At least, the article shows the TWO side's stories from the people who against us and the people who favor us.
And more important is finally someone is focusing on EB problem.
Did you think it was for us then?

welcome guys, there is no state chapter other than us at this point, so indeed you are members :)
IV has created a whole new forum for chapters to form and discussions to open but I fear most people don't find their way there...
so far there have been just two of us.
well...we have doubled our group already to 4! I'm sure there will be more, we should start thinking about what we can do to help on a local level.

There wont be too many takers for this premium processing for EB3. whats the point in getting i-140 in a jiffy if you have to wait 4+ years to file 485 after that ? The only ones it can help are those seeking 3 year extensions and those seeking to change employers.

I see people not supporting the CIR which was suppose to be a pro Immigration bill, no matter which part of the society it was supporting. My question is Are you guys out here a Pro or an anti immigration forum?
Or are you guys out here are to fulfill their selfish dreams, stand on others to reach the top.
Can anyone answer me? I really doubt the people out here.
Read the mission statement. FYI... We are not trying to stand on other to reach the top but, we do not let others stand on us to get to the top. I dont think you understand the subtle difference here. CIR is PRO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION bill and has nothing to offer Legal EB immigrants.

There is always a calculated risk in extending I-94. No one can predict the outcome of this process. Personally, I would not do it.

If any IV member works in the university, could you find out if there are any Indian and chineese assistant professors that have joined in the recent past. Such people might have applied in EB2 through university and will be retrogressed.
Also pls get in touch with post-docs in your universities and inform them about IV. Hopefully some of them might be willing to help us with the interview.

Sounds complicated. I don't want to rain on your parade, but having more than one person in a freelance "business" (a business is anything that earns money) is very complicated. You have to work out tax and wages.
I'd suggest starting alone and then getting someone to help you, or share work with some else in a similar situation.

On a different note, how safe it is to go for Visa stamping in Canada. My visa stamp in passport expired last year, my H1B is valid untill end of 2007. Will it be ok to go to canada for visa stamping at this stage. Please let me know if anybody has any good/bad experiences with this process.
Thanks

That is true, however, would that result in the 140 being cancelled? As per several discussions the 140 can still be used for extensions (assuming that the 140 has not been revoked/cancelled by USCIS due to fraud and that the PD is not current for that catagory). Again this is debatable and there are lots of opinions on this issue out there.
Some people say that the PD of the older 140 (even if revoked/cancelled by the former employer) can be used when the new company clears the labor and is applying for the new 140.
You need to consider two scenarios here...
First: Approved I-140 revoked by employer, since the employee is no longer with him and or employer no longer want to proceed with immigrant worker petition.
In this case the beneficiary of I-140 can recapture priority date to a future immigrant worker petition by his prospective employer ( at new I-140 stage)
Second: Approved I-140 revoked by USCIS due to Fraud
In this case the employer or employee can no-longer eligible to use that I-140 , which includes recapturing priority date.
Remember: To get H1B extension beyond 6th year one need to have valid approved and/or pending labor/I-140.
If the PERM labor expires then you can not use that to get 1 year extension
If I-140 revoked by employer then you can not use that to get extension even for the same employer ( if you come back to him):p

No Bro. I told them when i came to US in 2000 the salary was 1/20 or 1/25 of what I can make in US. So US was an attractive option. Now the salaries in India are close to 10 lacs per annum, it turns out to be 1/4 or 1/5 of what i make here. With less taxes, less cost of living and facilities in india good enough i guess i live a happier life in India than here.
SO i was presenting him my point that moving back to India may turn out to be a wonderful decision than getting stuck here. If every highly qualified immigrant take this decision and leave, US will be at loss. I did manage to convince him that losing us is a bad thing for US economy. That is how he managed to portray my story in a good way.

hey starscream
- What was the RFE about?
In the RFE they asked for end client letter, w2 , tax retrns for last 3 years and a bunch of stuff from my company. All the necessary documents were provided. In the denial they said that all documents were in order but that they didnt prove my specialty occupation.
- Are you employed by a consultant or employed full-time at a company's location?
I am employed by a desi consulting company.. and i have been in a job continously since jan 2006
- Did your employer have any profit isseus / layoffs reecently?
No
- Is your employer TARP funded?
No
- Do you have your EAD?
No , i just completed 3 years of H1. i was planning to become fulltime and start GC before the economy went downhill.
Do you have any info if i can appeal and file another h1 thru another employer at the same time? because i do have a project that is long term...
its driving me crazy....:(

I agree 100%
In simple words..
Trying to game the internal processing of USCIS case handling is like trying to guess the weather based on daily horoscope... ! No way attorney can know that.. only reason they probably want to wait is some ulterior motive such as company trying to hold onto the employee or attorny looking for extra fees.. absent that.. I would be worried coz then that would mean attorny is incompetent and does not know which end is up..
Here's what we do know
I485 filing provides MAJOR benefits.
140 processing can go on for year or so and meanwhile a lot can change in terms of Priority dates etc.
485 filing does not begin 485 processing if 140 is pending.. that's in USCIS memos.. only same office will handle 485 so in fact it is better! coz once you get past 140.. you are home free.. as opposed to other cases where 140 evidence is being re-checked at the time of 485 approval..
So GO AHEAD file concurrently..

Yes it is possible, since until I find a job that I really like it will take some time, problably I can even negotiate to start after the 181th day.
Also, what would be the process? Does the new employer needs to notify INS that I am changing jobs? Os this can be done without advising anybody but the former employer?

Does anyone know any other place to find the PD in case you have the Case Number?
The link mentioned below shows the PD for 2006 FY Data only :(
For 2007/2008 FY, I could not get the PDs from the below mentioned site.
If you have all the PERM case numbers with you then you should be able to find your PD in this link

DOS tried to update the system reflecting a big jump in the visa dates for May. The system was unused to any changes lately - leave aside such large forward movements - and as a result it crashed.
DOS managed to recover the system by replacing all date fields with character fields. The rumor is that the value for all those character fields is now "C", whatever that means.
Ha ha ha.
