Even if you are doing it with good intention, i guess is true, have you thought of paying royalty for using IV as a platform .Any takers!!!

I hear you Munshi. It is certainly a risk.

As an immigrant entrepreneur, unfortunately I have to take some risks.

I sincerely believe this will help my IV friends and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to help our community.

Yes it seems USCIS is also asking the public to help improve its website. It has posted a link on its homepage "Help improve uscis.gov" which was supposed to take you to another page. Unfortunately that link is broken as of now. If you click on it, it takes you to a blank page.

I would say, for starters, how about posting links that actually work????

Six years of my H1B expires on Oct 2010. Company A had filed my PERM in April 2009. I was laid off by Company A in Jan 2010. I found another employment and joined Company B in Feb 2010. Company B has filed for H1B transfer with 2 months recapturing while I was outside US thus possibly a visa date of Dec 2010. I've read in this forum that Company B can ask for 7th year extension based on pending LC for more than 365 days with Company A. But my LC from Company A was approved in Feb 2010. Company A will not file I-140 for me. Can someone please tell me if it is still possible for 7th year extension with approved PERM but no pending I-140?

I'm seeking help here as I need to plan ahead for kids education and home. Thanks to IV.

Got an RFE to produce employment verification letter from my current employer. Yes, i changed the employer recently but didn't file AC-21.

Do you know how long USCIS takes to update the status online?

Thanks.

Hi All...

My attorney filed my EAD (mailed) on August 28 this year and last Friday I saw the approval too on USCIS site. Today I decided to help one of my friends with his EAD so I decided to pull the attorney filed copy of my I-765, I noticed that attorney had mentioned "AOS" in Q:15 instead of H1B. I am on H1B and I have never used my EAD... so I am worried now and I don't know what are my options now... Would you please take few minutes of your precious time and help me with the options I may have now to correct this issue?

Thanks

AJ

I doubt it is an issue. you should be fine. U are in AOS too!

My wife and I, and the group I helped to start, American Families United (http://americanfamiliesunited.org), was featured in this story in the New York Times here:

http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/12/fashion/12green.html

Hi Randall
I have read about you in some articles in the media. I can appreciate the frustration you might be facing with the backlog affecting your wife's green card.
I think as a citizen your efforts carry more weight than immigrants. Also you can reach out to more citizens.

I also signed up for the pledge drive. Too bad it didn't work out. However I really appreciate your efforts for taking up this issue.

If Indian Govt asks for more PR / GC numbers make sense. with current economic status rather asking for more H1B numbers.


India to ask US for more H-1B visas- Visa Power-Travel-Services-News By Industry-News-The Economic Times (http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/news-by-industry/services/travel/visa-power/India-to-ask-US-for-more-H-1B-visas/articleshow/5137427.cms#write)


Guess more pressure from Big guys like Wipro / Infosys / TCS for this on Indian govt.

We have been applying for advance parole document at NSC for the last few years.
This time also we sent our application to NSC on 01/28/2010.

However, after about 15 days, we received a receipt notice letter from Vermont service center and the case is now pending at VSC. Moreover, the check is not cashed yet.

Based on the state we are living, the I-131 application instructions specify that I-140 based applications should be sent to Nebraska service center.

I am wondering if USCIS started processing I-131 applications at VSC.
Or our application is mistakenly misclassified and sent to VSC.

Any comments?

Yes - as long as your 485 is pending and you have a US address to receive the card.
So in this case, the person should send the documents from India, correct? One of the requirement was I-94 card. How will we provide that if you are out of the country? What to say for Last Entry?

Hi,

My H1-B got Accepted but I didnt recieved my I-94. I completed my masters here. There are no status issues. My OPT will expire on Dec 27.

I applied for H1-B amendment under Premium processing but i got query of Company documents and 2004, 2005 paystubs.

My employer answered them that employee is not there in the usa in those years. Below is the response from USCIS

Current Status: Response to request for evidence received, and case processing has resumed.

On October 09, 2008, we received your response to our request for evidence. We will notify you by mail when we make a decision or if we need something from you. If you move while this case is pending, call customer service. You should expect to receive a written decision or written update within 60 days of the date we received your response unless fingerprint processing or an interview are standard parts of case processing and have not yet been completed, in which case you can use our processing dates to estimate when this case will be done. This case is at our CALIFORNIA SERVICE CENTER location. Follow the link below to check processing dates. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register.


Usually How many days it will take under premium processing? Because my OPT EXPIRES ON DEC 27.

does any one got same query like me?

If h1-b amendment got rejected then can i go to consulate with old I797B form which is with out i-94?

What are those little green squares that show up with our names when we post something?? When you hover over them you see a ToolTip message.
Are they supposed to tell us if we've been Naughty or Nice this year? :cool:
They represent reputation points.Everyone will have one at starting.As people start to add you the reputation points..The green squares will increase.Sometimes they depend on number of posts you posted in the forum.

Mine is approved I140. If USCIS doesn't ask for paystub then giving EVL of any consulting firm will solve the problem?

Also, my wife is working on EAD. Can she apply for H1 visa? Will it affect our GC process? I am the primary applicant.

A bonafide job offer is what is needed. You may want to contact lawyer personally and they will be able to guide you in this.

Can anybody please let me know what are the documents needed to file for 485. If I do not have any immunization record, how can I show that immunization record?
Somebody with experience please post. It has been answered earlier elsewhere, but I could not find it through search.
Thank you

Your question is answered in this thread: http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=4476 on page 1 by "arnet".

My wife went to US consulate in Kuwait for her H4 stamping on Feb 18th. During the interview she was informed that some administrative process on their end was not completed and asked to pay for the DHL service and was told that she would be contacted by DHL who would collect her passport, get the visa stamped and return it to her. She was also told that it should not take more than 2 weeks.. On her application form, the interviewer wrote NO PIM.

Since then it has been a harrowing time for us. It has been 6 weeks, since then and we still have not heard anything. We have tried contacting the consulate using phone, email and at times my wife personally went to the consulate but she was not allowed to enter. We do not hear anything back from them.

I can understand a couple of weeks, but now its more than 6 weeks and counting. We have already cancelled her and my son's flight tickets once. We have rescheduled my son's doctor's appointment. This delay is having a domino effect on our lives.

My question is - Is there anything that we can do to expedite this process.

Thank you looking at this thread
