I filed my 485 in July 11th and have received the 485 receipts. There is a possibility that I might get laid off before Jan 11 (180 days). My H1 B expires Nov 2008.
Questions
1. Can I stay legally in US if I get laid off in Oct 07 ?
2. How can I proceed with my Green Card process ?
I think this might be a repeat question, but would still like to get your thoughts.

If your I-140 is approved and if ur employer could continue ur GC for more than 180 days as a future employee you could work for another employer on H1B till then and then the new employer could take over ur GC process. However plz check with an attorney though.

Nice idea but does anyone honestly think the DOL cares. I am somewhat fortunate that my 2002 labor finally got approved in the middle of 2006. My son is not so lucky since he turned 21 while I was waiting. When my senators office took the matter of my son aging out up with the DOL I was told to put him on an F1 visa and send him to college so he can REMAIN (he wants to LIVE here, big difference) in the United States. These people do NOT care what they are doing to your lives. They do not care that my son has NO path to permanent residency any more and that I have to write the enormous check for his tuition twice each year so that I can still have him in the same country as me and his father. I feel awful for anyone still waiting for their labor certification but at least you will eventually get in line for your green card and will get ahead of those filing now with much later priority dates. You are indeed victims but I just wanted to point out that there are thousands of young adult children who have had their hopes for getting a green card totally shattered by this backlog center fiasco.

Anyone in this situation would have expressed frusturation. He did this in BEC forum. I don't see a reason to ban him. Please....
Aman/Ashish if you can jump in and unban him.

Just a simple question. Corporations are arguing that every year 100k new jobs are created in high tech. Even 75% of the new jobs are for H1b then only 75k H1bs are needed. Even if you include other jobs teacher,Healthcare you do not need more than 120K every year Why do you need unlimited H1bs? Any pro immigrant lobbying group is not giving justification in numbers though everyone accepts there should be increase in H1b numbers.There should be increase in GC numbers as backlog had increased(But in this case also no one gave correct numbers based on requirement) but nothing wrong in H1b quota and some regulations in H1b to minimise abuse.
Another aspect is in the bill they gave 115k H1b for 2008. If they do not put restrictions your company cannot get any new H1b as most of H1b quota will be used by Indian consulting companies in one day. Do you think it is correct?
If not correct what is your solution? Corporation solution for this problem is unlimited H1bs by giving exemption to STEM and US master degree holders from H1b quota.
I am also opposing the restrictions in H1b program in the bill. But I do not have any alternative solution for the problems in the H1b program.
Again, there is a common misconception that companies have unlimited access to talent in other countries, and the only limiting factor is the quota of H1B visas.
Not true, by a long shot.
To give a simple example, our company is looking for people in Australia, Denmark, Finland, Canada and UK since the pool of qualified people in India has dried up in our field. Can anyone guess where is the biggest talent pool? Nope, not in Bangalore, its right here in USA!! Not all companies are looking for the cheapest person. They are looking for the best person. And in many cases, the best person is already here, and has gathered more experience over the years working for US companies. But they cannot hire her, simply because she is on a visa and thereby beholden to another company. If she had a GC, that would free up the talent pool and thereby make many companies less reliant on H1Bs. Increasing GCs for EB candidates has the same effect as increasing H1 quota, with the added benefit of making the cream of the crop available and reducing the uncertainty and hassle of hiring an H1.
This is why it is in the best interest of companies to support EB GCs.
My friend Senthil makes the same mistakes (repeatedly, unfortunately):
(A) Assuming that "good" companies will not be affected by any change of increase in fees for H1B, since they presumably have unlimited pockets and unlimited access to unlimited talent. (Big ha!ha!)
(B) "Good" companies can always get to hire people in US if they exist, and the only reason they hire H1 is that they cannot find anyone in US as there is no one in US who is good enough for the job for love or money (Bigger ha!ha!)
As to the question "then why are companies not doing enough for EB candidates", I do not know, and neither does anyone know, truthfully. Maybe they are, but as someone pointed out, no single player in the CIR game has enough clout to run the whole show. Or else the bill would have been passed long ago.

just fyi...it took fragomen 6 months just to start the recuitment process ...they are really slow. but they are quick in getting back to you on your day to day requests.
My company started the PERM process for me about 2.5 months ago. I contacted Fragomen about 1.5 months after approvals within the company and they said they are working on establishing min requirements for the position. I then contacted them 3 weeks after that day and they said they have established the requirement and will request the DOL for prevailing wage info (this was 2 weeks ago). After which they are going to start the recruitment process. So I'm not sure if the time line is okay or should I be chasing them more frequently? Please advise.
Regards
Nat

I entered US on H4. Then applied for H1 for software job. worked for 2 months last yr and then went for maternity leave.
Now I started working again and I still have to go for stamping.
I have completed CPA and I would like to move to an accounting firm ( they have to file my H1 transfer with accounting domain).
Is this going to cause any problem during H1 transfer or stamping??
Thanks,
NSK.

I have been thinking about whether to attend the rally or not from past few weeks. Attending the rally would require me to take a day off. Finally today without thinking twice I just went to my manager asked if I can take day off on 9/18 instead compensate the work in the following saturday. It was approved and I am attending the rally on 9/18!
I am feeling so good now.
Also, I live in DC area and can help if somebody needs to be picked from airport to the rally and drop them back if needed.
Hope to see thousands on 9/18th...
ALL THE BEST TO OUR CAUSE!
Regards.
Anucks, what great news!!! You are really committed and your sacrifice in working on Saturday will really pay off! Congratulaions on your decision, you will NOT regret it!!!!

I have some questions:
I have EAD and AP, but i never used it. Still working on H1.
My wife used EAD but never went outside US..so never used AP.
1) In EAD form, for Q.15 Current Immigration Status for me and my wife?
2) In AP form, for "Class of Admission", what should I write for me and my wife?
Thanks
Q15: For you = H1B For Wife = AOS Pending
#2 Assuming you entered on H1 and wife on H4 (no Student/visitior etc)
You =H1B Wife =H4

I think a change of leadership of IV is critical if we have to get anywhere. IV has not been able to achieve a single thing in all of its existence. Not a single thing, nada, zitto, zapata. Not disclosing the issues they are working on, not disclosing how the funds are distributed, not disclosing the lobbyist they are using. Who in the world calls that leadership!
That is the reason that no one wants to contribute. First get some results, show people results for what they have paid for. Then ask for more money. Most people I talk to are confident that IV will achieve nothing given their track record. I tried to convince a colleague to join IV. He bet with me that they will not be able to achieve even this filing I-485 issue. He bet that he will join and pay if they did.
I know IV works like dIVorced wIVes club and saying anything negative is taboo. Anyone saying anything negative is crushed with (p)curses. Only good mushy things are allowed here. So here it is: We will get our GCs by the end of the month. Hallelujah!
But I am writing this for the benefit of IV and please take this as constructively as you can. As a member, I have full right to suggest a change of leadership when I think it can help.
Your Join date is Feb 2006 and total posts are 4, i believe including this one.
And what you want is change of leadership. What a Joke ??
How about you starting a State chapter as president and meet and convince Local Congress Man and Senetor ??

I finally received my I485 denial notice. I had to make 4 infopass appointments to get the letter. My attorney hasn't yet got it. I will be filing for MTR and sending the request to Ombudsman per another thread on this forum.
Was curious if others have the following in their denial notice:
last paragraph:"There is no appeal for this decision" This decision is without any prejudice to any future I485 application that you may file....blah blah.."
They have quotedsection 245 immigration and nationality act [8 USC 12s5]..states " underlying visa petition upon which seek permanant residence has been revoked...blah blah"
Is this pretty standard?

Unless Congress provides the necessary funding for managing the millions of applications under MBS along with Y visa, Z visa, new family based petitions etc etc, anyone would agree that the total time to get a green card will not be less than 9 years regardless of how many points you have or how early you filed for ur GC.
The current gc backlogged applicants have already gone thru 5 years of never-ending wait time - this will increase by another 9 years.

Well...I am one of us stuck in EB3. I do qualify for EB2 but my employer choose to file it under EB3. I recently invoked AC21 and moved over to a new employer on my EAD. Is there a way I can ask my new employer if they can file new I140 under EB2 and change my category to EB2?
Is it possible to file I-485 again (with older PD) after switching to new employer? Does AC21 rule allow this?

mheggade, ur calc looks good but with the exception of Level II, I think most of the people who got Labor with MS+0 (or +1...) will have Level II. my attorney applied MS+0 even though I was having 6 yrs of exp when I applied.
Do you have any thoughts on how many people could be in this category wage level II in EB-2 I?

I am wondering if it is a "revenge" that USCIS has taken because it could not have its way in June/July 2007 in blocking us from filing 485.

Not really true. If you look at web site, they are now approving cases filed in June 07 even though the processing times bulletin says April 07.
All EB3 who filed their I140/I485 in June and afterwards have to wait till processing date cross at least June. Right now TSC is processing April 2007 cases.

Do you have I-485 pending? If yes, I94# is not significant. If you don't give A#, USCIS will issue RFE or fix themselves looking into database - which my delay processing.
I94# is used only when A# is not available, e.g. students applying for OPT based EAD for first time.
Thanks.
Also should I attach my photocopy my OPT card also or just current EAD card is sufficient?
