My friend has a similar situation.
He transferred H1 to Company B and worked for 5 weeks and descided to come back to company A (He is 100% sure that Company A didn't revoke / calcel his H1 and he has valid H1 till 2009).
IS this OK?
Please help by clarifying...
Thanks
Folks....my friend went to India and went to chennai for VISA on Company A. HE got the VISA (Visa officer asked lot of questions about the compnay A..like paystubs, Bankstatements...etc..).
But altogether..very happy.

Agreed. I think there are people like myself whose PD is in 2002 and are eligibile to move to EB2 after finishing advanced degrees and adding another 5 years of experience during the process.
It�s good that at least some of us are getting VISAs, instead of VISAs being lost.
However if this continues we could see a big movement to switch over to EB2 with or without porting PDs. This may in turn help EB3 :)
We need to make this a sticky thread, so that we can brainstorm and put best ways to switch from EB3 to EB2 w/keeping older PDs.

Transfer of the Earlier Priority Date : EB3 to New EB2
�MurthyDotCom
The ability to transfer priority dates from an earlier, approved, I-140 to a later-filed I-140 could provide an alternative for job mobility, both within the current employer's organization or with a new employer. This would be helpful for those who want to make a change but are not eligible to file the I-485 application because of retrogression. It also could help people who are eligible to change from an EB3 classification to EB2. One would be eligible to request a transfer of the priority date from the earlier-filed EB3 petition to a new EB2 petition once the I-140 is approved. The new EB2 petition would need to be based upon a new LC for a position requiring the EB2 level of education and/or experience. (Over time, many people with EB3 cases have become eligible for EB2 cases due to increased experience and/or education, and promotions.)
This strategy potentially could shave off a few years in the queue for available immigrant visa numbers. This may be particularly appealing to those who had EB3 labor certifications filed on their behalf long ago and have had their cases pending while they have gained advanced degrees, acquired several more years of experience, and/or are offered jobs at higher levels. Keep in mind, though, that this involves filing a whole new LC under the PERM system for a new job opportunity and that the employer must actually require the additional degree and/or experience for all persons holding that job classification in order for the new case to be filed as EB2.

I also heard a lot of different things from some of my friends not sure if all of them are true or not. I have heard that people who did Labor substitution or converted from EB3 to EB2 are getting unusually high number of RFEs compared to others. Also DOL seems to be tightening up and scrutinizing EB2 applications vigorously(this is hear say don't take my word for this). Personally the one fact that I can vouch for from my experience with my family and vast circle of friends that did apply for Green cards is that people with a straight forward EB2 application had much higher chances of getting approved even with a later priorty date. I know four friends with a PD of June 2005 EB2(and many more with earlier PDs) from one retrogressed country who got green cards during that 1 month in July 2007 when all the dates were current. But I also have several friends who are either EB3 to EB2 conversion or EB3 with much earlier PDs (2002/2003) who unfortunately are still waiting for their I 485 approval even with an earlier PDs(most of them even did PERM Labor with transfer of PD or EB3 to EB2). many of them are still replying for RFE for one or the other issue. Does having a complicated application with EB3 to EB2 transfers/ Labor substitution delay the processing or lead to more scrutiny from USCIS? I don't know. I would like to know more from the other friends in the forum who have received RFE recently regarding their experiences. Also any straight forward EB2 filers who got RFEs please post your experience.

See if you can post a flyer in the Ann Arbor Indian foods store (Foods of India) near the medical capus. The one in Canton (forgot the name-- the one where they sell bhel) is also a hot spot for folks working around Ann-Arbor/Detroit areas. There is one more Indian store on Packard further up north (in Ann Arbor) Owner is a VERY FRIENDLY guy and very well connected (his connections helped in selling my car, find a subletter...!). He's alway open to flyers and such.
I have spread the word to some I know in MI, hopefully they'll respond. Good luck!

my friend.. thanx for your kind words
u and ur non-retrogressed friend have my support for an expedited process since u got US advanced degree that make u better suited for this market.. u should be talking STEM.. i am talking about the disparity in available opportunities to come here back in our homelands. Individual examples aside, I trust statistics, you'll find that each year a handful of giant offshoring companies grab more than half the H1 quota.. is it my streotyping imagination that infosys, wipro and satyam don't hold job fairs in Romania and they only make these opportunities available in retrogressed countries?
Hello! Infosys, Wipro and all those companies are NOT the main sponsors of green cards, which is the reason we're in this forum, no? Most of the sponsors are US based small and medium sized companies.
I don't care how many visas they get, the fact is that it doesn't affect me! I neither have a job with them nor I benefited from them grabbing a bulk of visas. End of the day I'm held back because of where I was born.
Look, this may be hard for you to understand, but just because those companies are in my country didn't and doesn't help me one iota. Everyone's on their own here.
Thanks for understanding that I have an advanced degree.
and don't give me the condescending excuse that if these companies only hire in retrogressed companies then talented, educated people must only exist in the retrogressed countries.
Anyway, i had this discussion many times here .. radical issue where people hardly change their minds..
peace..
That is ridiculous. I never said that nor I will. The reason is because those companies MORE people exist in those countries, and THEY'RE CHEAPER and poorer, that's something I do expect you to understand.
Did stereotyping help you in your discussions earlier?

Check with your lawyer but I believe there may be a grace period wherein they allow you to add your wife's name after 485 filing. In addition, there is a 4 year backlog in the family based green card process. 01-JUN-02 for FB-2A (India).
My pd is jan 2005 and i was waiting for the dates to become current.I am not married and will most probably get married by this year end[parents in the process of searching matches].my dilemma is whether to apply for 485 now or not.can i add my wife's name later on while the 485 is in the final stages of the process[say an year after the process began] or just before the green card is being dispatched etc so that both of us can get green cards.i dont want to miss this chance because i seriously feel that the dates might retrogress again.but if i apply and get a green card u all know how many years it will take to get wife to usa in family based immigration.somebody please clear my doubt.Thank you

Democrats have taken control of senate also...
I don't think that Dems are quite there yet. I thought I saw CNN reporting one seat in Virginia still undecided. This is the seat where Allen's the incumbent. He is trailing by a thin margin, and I suppose there'd be a recount here. It appears Allen may lose his senate seat in Virginia thanks to his infamous utterance. In that case Dems have the majority.
If GOP were to retain majority in Senate and Dems in House, what would be fate of the congress? Will anything pass through both houses?

IV has not been able to achieve a single thing in all of its existence.
From Lobbying and Legislation (http://www.policylink.org/AdvocatingForChange/Lobbying/Legislators.html).
Be persistent. Lobbying campaigns rarely come to a definitive end.
If your proposed legislation is defeated, there is frequently another opportunity to reintroduce it. Don�t be discouraged. Often it takes several tries to pass a measure, especially one that seeks to bring about an important change.
If you win, do not get complacent. Monitor implementation and make sure your legislation is fully funded. Look out for opposition attempts to undo or diminish your victory by trying to repeal your legislation, filing litigation to overturn it, or seeking regulations to significantly weaken its implementation

Seems like it's the same info as the NSC Updates dated November last year... So it's official that we can file 485 without 140 receipt notice!

sorry for mentioning renewal, disregard that word.
Yes, go ahead and fill out the same form(regardless of the previous AP status), be sure to get the latest form from uscis site.
Thanks for the reply and the blog!
Regarding your answer for question 3 - when you say "renewal" what does it mean? There is just one application form for I-131, so should I simply fill out the same form regardless of whether the previous AP is current or expired?

A few min later my spouse called and they told her, Everything would be rejected.

Updates:
I got an email from my law firm, that my packet was refused to be accepted by USCIS.
I received the email from my law firm (Monday night - July 2) that:
Please note however your case was sent to Nebraska last night and did arrive - we tried!
Which means mine was sent or reached NSC sunday night or must have been hand delievered early Mon morning. Don't know exactly what happened. I just trust them!!!!
I didn't bother to ask my law firm further details. I will ping them first thing monday morning and try to give any update I get. I hope they have some proof of the refusal!!!!!!!............
OK, that sounds VERY FISHY to me. Now how on earth did they know that the packet contained an I-485 application in order to refuse accepting it. It could have been an I-140. The norm we have seen up to now is that USCIS did accept everything that was delivered on the 2nd. Wheather they will keep it or return it is another matter.
Now it seems to me that your attorney is playing with you. Quite possibly he didn't send it.

I can see sammyb's frustration but there is something to be said for collective intelligence and opnion. If we start restricting access to the site we loose out on the "Wisdom of the Crowds". A good example is free file sharing websites that have very few people contributing (<10%) but the benefit to the community is huge and the membership becomes ever larger because it is free. So as IV becomes more popular (which should be are foremost goal) there will be more people willing to contribute (even though the percentage of people contributing might still be small). I am not making a case for free loaders, instead I am making a case for free access to information.
I salute Needhelp! for her commitment to this cause.
Good thinking!
I am wondering how would IV generate the funds needed to do lobbying if everyone here is for a free-for-all ride. :)
I suggest if anyone is looking for up to date, real time forum to get Q&A. :)

I dont know the whole background...but they say they will use 5000 unused visas per year. Where do these unused visas come from? FB visas?
I'm guessing if its contractors/workers, its likely to come out of EB category. This is bad news! They should have additional numbers for these situations rather than taking from existing pool which is already retrogressed.:mad:

I think we can work as a Group on this Issue. I am ready to lead or Join this Group.
We can file in Court if required as a Group to get a greater exposure and success.
Least but not last, the contributions can be very very minimum. We can get more people join this site in less time with this issue.
Requesting IV core team to advise on it.
Thanks
That is exactly what I am thinking. There are laws to protect immigrants from discrimination. I believe this clause was added to the Social Security Act to protect us in situations exactly like this one.
Also, I am glad to have become involved in this as it has led me to great immigration resources like IV, which I would not have known about otherwise.
