Sorry guys I am not the brightest bulb on the tree so I kinda missed the joke here. Are you saying that USCIS is giving away TVs and we should all watch TV instead of waiting for GC? Or are you suggesting that we should start selling tv to get gc?
If you clarify whether the TVs are color or black-and-white may be I will get the point?

Thanks all for the replies.

My receipt no. is starting with WAC. I had already got transfer notice in September 2007 about getting transferred to NSC as they have juridiction over my case.

Greencard and H-1B expenses should be paid by the employer. Anything else is illegal. I am requesting admins to close this thread.
I think H1B expenses must be paid by employer. However, GC fees need not be... as GC is an optional element (employer is not required to process GC for every H1B employee).

So what you are saying is that INS and IRS systems are connected?
IRS can go back 3 years unless they have evidence that you understated your income by more than 20%. There are some depreciation issues that may allow them to go back further.
As far as I know, IRS and INS (USCIS) do not share information with each other. USCIS is under the Dept of Homeland Security and IRS is under Department of the Treasury.
I actually read a newscoverage in California couple of years ago where INS sued the IRS for not providing information about the illegal immigrants. INS claimed that they failed to obtain information from the IRS about the illegal immigrants who were filing tax returns using TIN numbers. If I remember correctly, INS lost the lawsuit and IRS was ordered not to release information on people to the INS.
Just to clarify a little more about TIN and SSN is that you cannot get a SSN unlress you have some sort of work authorization (Such as H-1, EAD or even F-1 working/willing to work on-campus) where you can get TIN numbers from IRS and they don't want to know your visa/residency status. So, if you are living illegally in the U.S., you can still get TIN number and file tax returns.

I have two passports one with H4 Visa stamped and another Surname changed. While entering US, I have used my name as in the Visa (new surname) in the I-94 card.
I have applied for H1B with new surname in this May and change of Status with that I-94.
During H1 processing, I have travelled out of US and while entering back I have used old surname( as sometime back DMV ppl told that the name on I-94 should match with H4 Visa)
Now I got H1 approval and COS approval with my middle name taken as first name and new surname.
1) First thing is, the I-94 on COS approval and I-94, currently present in my Passport does not match.
2) First name and middle name are interchanged in the passport and H1 approval.
Is this going to create any problem while applying SSN? What are the possible consequences..
Also, any similar scenarios, plz respond..
in your situation it is advised to talk to an immigration attorney like Murthy or someone like that. They can help you out with this. You may be scared to death by some of the posts here.

My wife and daughter planning to go to India next month. They do not have H4 stamping but H4 validity is there up to next year. Plan is to come back after receiving AP. I am thinking that once their AP is approved I will send their AP to India, and they will come back using that AP. Experts, do you see any problem in this. Please share your thoughts.
Thanks, Regards
There could be a problem at Point of Entry if the officer notices the exit date before the approval of AP. I think for you to be able to use AP to enter it should be approved prior to your exit out of the country. You might want to consult an attorney or USCIS on this. If the IO at POE stops them there is nothing you can do. So be very careful on what you want to do here.

I am asking people to think before acting.
I am not opposing webfax. I am opposing webfax you are sending to promite illegals. These organizations are going to use you to market them self. Secondly nobody is going to read your fax if you even change the words.
Organizations supporting illegals will do nothing for legals.
If you think that by changing the words , you can use their fax to spread your message, then why dont you go to anti-immigrant websites and change their words and send faxes to support legals. You will not do it because you know anti-immigrant is written on top of the fax.
So why do you want to become a puppet of someone else.
psaxena if you really want to do something, how about collecting the names of all the people in the meeting and post their phone numbers on the forum. Then tell us what to say and we will all call their offices now.
Do you understand that if anything is going to happen for us it has to be through CIR at this time? It is a fact that Illegal immigration group with 12 million people have much louder voice than we IV/legal immigrants. If you don't suppport CIR then you are supporting anti-immigrants by sitting quite at this time. CIR may be 90% for illegals and 10% for legals and with friends like Zoe Lofgren in the committee we should be hopeful that there will be definitely some relief for us. Ist step is to support CIR.

Ok, in defense of Nikon, how are Canon's lenses "far superior"? Yes, they have IS (VR) in long teles, and their wide T/S lens has a bit more flexibility. But say Janey wants to do some extreme macro photography? Yeah, Canon has the MP-E 65mm that goes from 1x to 5x, but it's expensive, and for the same cost (or less) one might be able to get a PB-6, enlarger lens, movie camera lens, 50mm lens, and various accessories to link them all together, and in the end have a much more flexible macro system.
Please read......."IMHO".................my opinion, not anyone's else's and are not we all entitled to opinions? Certain I am sure there are several scenarios that might favor one mfgr over the other........."what if" situations abound.

I would choose my "bedfellows" cautiously.
Once CIR has collapsed, he'll re-aim. Remember: Most of the "Right Wing" are looking for scape goats right now. The neo-conservatives' policies have failed demonstratively for the average, joe-sixpack American since the Clinton years and if they don't find some group to blame, they'll have to blame themselves. (Nobody wants to blame themselves) Savage represents the neo-conservatives.
If he is a bigot (as many right wing talk show hosts are) then he will easily be bigoted against us.
True, Savage is not for us. He is unpredictable as someone mentioned above. Today, he was quoting from an article which mentioned about immigrationvoice. He was reading the plight of some Mahesh ... . He said to go to home country. All H1B's came on a big lie. Oracle who is lobbying for H1and Mr Gates are all greedy etc. He was going on and on.

For adjustment of status you should be in a Valid H1.
Incorrect
If you get your EAD before Setp 16th then you can use this to work and you are safe.
Correct. However if you have H1 extension pending you can still work for H1 employer without EAD
If you dont get EAD you are basically out of status.
Incorect.
The person is in AOS Pending status.
So I suggest get your H1 Renewed Right away using Premium or regular processing.
Again this is my analysis check with your lawyer.
See above in Blue.

Hello gg_ny,
It is too scary.. Plz note that the surname change is after mariz.. As per our convention, after mariz, wife's surname changes to that of husbands.. We have the mariz certificate with us.
Is this still that major problem, as earlier explained by you?
The problem as I it was traveling on your old passport after you obtained a new one. You could have travelled on the new one attached to the old one and your change of name document.
I concur with others...you need to sort this out fast before you land in trouble. See an immigration attorney quickly. My 2 cents.

All,
I have filed 140 and 485 in July 2006, EB2 file concurrent at Nebraska service center. So far no word yet.
I would like to know anyone get approve either 140 or 485 from Nebraska service center to get an idea the time frame on my case.
Thanks,
:)
As all the I-140's from CA and VT were transferred to NSC in April so it is slow. I guess they are currently working on cases filed in the month of April. If your I-140 is not approved by December then you might want to consider converting it into Premium Processing so that you can avail the benefits of AC21 once your I-485 is pending for more than 180 days.

Anyone thinking that recession is confined to a specific industry or geography needs to do a reality check. I am not saying we are in recession or we will be in one soon. I will leave that to forecasters. But core to all the down markets/recession/bear market is consumer confidence and inflation. Now what we are seeing in Finance industry could trickle down to tech in a quarter or two, simply because Financial sector spends big on tech and downturn in any specific industry erodes consumer confidence.
In 2001 it started with tech but financial and other sectors also took a big hit (take a look at the layoff figures from tristate area). The reason then and now as has always been was consumer confidence. In 2001, tech downturn and stock market correction eroded consumer confidence. As they say we can actually talk ourselves into recession by simply feeling depressed about economy and hence directly affecting consumer confidence.
As far as layoffs go, during 2000/2001 a large chunk of people left the industry (tech/telecom) never to come back again. Some of them remain unemployed/underemployed some moved to Real estate. Each down turn systematically purges bottom 20-30% who never get employed at the same level. Generally the most vulnerable ones are older workers or fresh college graduates.

The issue here is, USCIS is a government agency. They are incapable of making a subjective determination of a person's capability. All they go by is the degree certificate which can be seen on a piece of paper.
As per INA/USCIS, many of the following won't qualify for EB2:

Did you join them on H1B and then move to EAD? Did you change your I-9 form when you did that? If you didn't, as far as they are concerned, you might still be on H1B and so they might feel a need to inform the USCIS. If not, well, there really is nothing in the rule book that says they have to inform the USCIS that an EAD holder left employment.
