The expenses are definitely required - i probably did more renewals and visas than you but that was borne by my H sponsor employers in all cases. Why did you pay on your own ?? Generally peoples who gets paid in Bill rate and make very good money they pay on their own and they don't care 20-25K given the enormous money that they made in 6+ years of H clock.
Regarding GC - my employer paid LC fees, 140 fees and i picked up the fees for 485/EAD/AP because i wanted control on the AOS. I dont want RFE letters to go my employer or their pet lawyer when i've ported off to somewhere else.
Push your employer - why they are called sponsors in H1 based immigration system ?
20K = Using an attorney for H1B Visa, 4 H4, Renewal of H1B Visa + 4 H4, Sponsorship Company got bought and change name = Re-Issuing H1B Visa, PERM Process....
But still.... people ask why illegals just don't come here legally?????? :mad:

Most affected are Chinese and Indian members...I don't know much about Chinese but I know from experience that it is hard to get money out of Desis...
They have a multiplication factor inbuilt in their minds 1$X44 = 44 Rupees!!!
So sad.
I am a desi too. So do not get offended.
Actually it worst for India now (china retrogression is lesser)
Either way Chinese nationals have other aveues (because
of communist govt, anti-two child law etc which make asylum cases strong)

There is definitely something weird going on in the background. Otherwise why would u take off free expression of members. Why are u challenged ?
Specially by member who is on this website from 2006. Is collecting money is the only goal left or u want to do something constructive. I am not doing something like this in anonymity but half of the team knows by name. So what's ur problem Administrator ? Is Elections a big thing to ask ?
So u suppressed my thread from the front page ? That is shameful and challenges the transparency of the core team.
Now go ahead and ban me...I have no problems.
You can draw any conclusion you want. I have no reason to convince or explain you anything. Your website membership since 2006 will not deter us from taking action if we see you harm the objective of the organization, we will ban you without a doubt.
IV is a democratic organization with well defined structure and electorate. We have no reason to explain anything to someone who wants to work against the organization instead of work with the organization.
Consider this as a final note of caution.

Dear Friends, my 140 just got approved at TSC (EB3-India, PD Feb 03, 140/485 filed in July 07). Given the current economic turmoil, my company may lay off people. I have a valid EAD till Oct 09. God forbid, if I can't find another job here after my layoff, is it legal to go to my home country (i.e., India) for a few months and then come back before Oct 09 to renew my EAD? Assuming the USCIS doesn't adjudicate my 485 while I'm away, could I have any problems at the port of entry (since I would be using Advance Parole but wouldn't have a job)?
Thanks.

i will ask my lawyer, to get some insight. Although the mumbo-jumbo he conveys is most time does not provide real answer, other than covering his own backside...
I beleive it should be ok, as long as POE immigration does not ask for pay stubs.
gurus, any input please.
Thanks.

Nice idea, but here is what I think...
Whats the point of donating after you get your Green card? Donate now in place of later and you can benefit from your own donation...and IV can get that money sooner :)

Hello,
FWIW do check if you need to change terminals ... now most international connections are managed through Terminal 5 (where you don't need any visa as you move from one gate to other) ... if you do need to change the terminal, then its a different story...

What is the process of suggesting amendments to bills under consideration to lawmakers, e.g. the amendments to PACE suggested in my previous post- can I call/e-mail/fax all sponsors/lawmakers or can I only contact specific lawmakers (those of my area)? Any suggestions will be welcome!

I am a july 2007 filler as well and my GC was approved last month though the processing date was few months behind. I know some other cases as well whose 485 was approved when the processing date was not current. So i would say that just stay positive and keep your fingers crossed. Happy days should be just around the corner.
can you share more details about your case?

Check processing times online for your service center.
I believe Nebraska Service Center is processing the July 2, 2007 receipt dates so you should be seeing it soon.
If you are travelling you can also contact the local service center and talk to the director over there regarding this to explain your case (but I doubt this will help too much without a good reason)
Hang in there (I am right there will you).

Of all your posts - you go that straight! :)
Thank you for your good wishes. However, I encourage you to look around the forum a bit, and see for yourself where you stand in line. I reckon there are tens of thousands of people from India waiting in line in your category - and they give out a generous three thousand every year in your category (including dependents)
At this rate - there is no chance in hell you will get lucky this year, or next year, or for several years after that.
I will see you next year - till then sweet dreams :)
I understand that you are new to this waiting game, I too had unrealistic expectations when I started out a couple of years ago. But the ground reality is that there just aren't enough green cards given out in the EB category. The EAD has some advantages, but for how long would you like to live in a state of limbo? My sincere unsolicited advice to you is to start the process in the last couple of years of your H-1B. Till then, expand your experiences, change jobs, and climb up the corporate ladder. Do not get stuck. You may not be aware, but if your I-140 is approved, you can get your H-1B extended in 3 year increments if your PD is not current. Don't be in a hurry to get the GC, because the govt. is clearly not in a hurry to give you one out to you.
When someone uses phrases like "being optimistic is better than nothing", it really gets me because doing nothing is going to get you just that - nothing.
The way u r replying seems to be u r one of those in that frustated waiting list. I only can wish u the best.

My H1B was filed on Feb 10th and got approved around March 15th. 10th year extension.
Full time employmnet. No RFE. Since my I-140 wasn't approved, I only got 1 year extension.

After contacting USCIS through Ombudsman & Senaor John Cornyn office I finally got email from Uscis telling me that I am in EB3 and they mistakenly sent me EB2 approval. After this they sent me an amended EB3 approval. Also the immigration officer who worked on my case called me an explained me what exactly happened.
He said that my attorney sent an letter with mi 140 approval saying that if they cannot approve me in EB2 they can consider me In EB3. Which is exactly what they did.but since the application had EB2 their contractor who generates the approval generated an EB2 approval. In Uscis system I was in EB3 and all alone I was thinking that I was in EB2. So i got royally screwed. The only now per immigration officer is for me to restart the gc process from labour stage and recapture the July 2004 pd. I got so sick of this I just stopped worrying about this and currently on Ead. Bought a house and will wait and see how things go. May reapply for labour ....

:) Even if USCIS says that they cant predict future cut-off dates, its not going to slow down the prediction-pundits on IV. Soon we'll have a thread out for December Visa Bulletin prediction!!
I vaguely remember a big guy from uscis presenting a awafully hopeless picture on forward movement (just before june/luly 09), there was a generous spill over in sep09 and dates moved forward (hopefully neverto go back). I donot believe what these non serious guys say. Let us hope for the best.

Here's my story, I'll try to make it short. Aug. '04 LC applicant. Filed for I-140 & I-485 (conc.) in Feb. '07. FP done in April. Received an e-mail from USCIS on 8.17.07 stating that an RFE letter has been issued for me on 8.16.07. Last friday (8.24.07) called my attorney, she said they haven't received it. She said they (their law firm) have changed their office location and informed USCIS in general, but not for each specific application they have filed, so it might take 3 weeks before we receive the FRE letter and usually there's a 30 day deadline for applicant to respond. Well, I got scared a little. I called USCIS customer service. The operator said she doesn't have access to specifics of case, e.g. nature of RFE letter, timeline for response (30, 42, 84 days) & etc. She also said there's zero chance for an extension to be granted to the applicant, if he can't provide the requested document within the timeline allowed by USCIS.
I called my attorney again. She said she had mailed all documents along with the application, except for previous work experience (which will be from my home country since I've worked for only 1 employer since I came to the U.S. in 2004)
Now my question is:
1- What if I don't receive the RFE letter in time?
2- Any loops to gain an extension if I can't make it before 30 days?
3- Any ways to find out about the nature of FRE letter?
4- Does this mean that I'll easily lose everything including 4 years of waiting if I just don't receive the RFE letter in time and can't provide them with what they're asking for? (Someone please answer NO to this question! :( )
5- Any advices, suggestions, similar experiences, ideas or solutions?
I appreciate any kind of feedback on this, since I'm almost shaking in here!
