I received an RFE for my EAD renewal.
It says "Please submit proof that you have filed an I-485 Application"
I have a copy of my receipt of I-485. Would that be enough to send? Why would they ask for proof of I-485? This is my second EAD renewal.
Please let me know.
Thanks.

I am also in same situation where my salary is much less than what is mentioned in LC. I am not sure if its going to affect my 485 application. I have got my 140 approved though. I have asked this question to attorneys and forums and everybody has the same opinion that GC is for future job so it should not matter if one's wages are not matching with LC.

Just like the the department of Homeland Security has USCIS to make sure that only very few highly-skilled immigrants get visas (thus causing the USRBD), they should also have the "Agency for USRBD" to counter the damage caused by USCIS. Don't let the RBD suck you in like it sucked Pablo in! Let's go make our voices heard in DC!!

Its high time Govt looks into H1B abuse and address it. Due to the abuse, H1B might get scrapped altogether.

For members doing the Calculations..............
According to DHS | CIS Ombudsman Updates:
During FY 2009 and FY 2010, usage of family-based visas has been exceptionally low, especially among spouses and children of green card holders (the F-2A preference category). In FY 2009, approximately 10,000 family-based visas were unused and, by statute, were reallocated for use by employment-based immigrants in FY 2010.
Given FY 2009 underutilization of family-based visas, the CIS Ombudsman has worked alongside United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the Department of State (DOS) to monitor family-based visa usage in FY 2010. To enable more family-based visa applicants to become eligible for final processing, the Visa Bulletin cut-off dates have been accelerating significantly. Despite the fact that more family members are becoming eligible, demand for family-based visas remains weak. While efforts are underway to facilitate maximum utilization, a significant number of family-based visas may again go unused in FY 2010.

My 485 was filed at CSC and later transferred to NSC (WAC receipt). My PD is Jan 2005. Still waiting..
I talked to IO using POJ method yesterday.The IO told me that receipts starting WAC will be processed according to CSC processing time which is at May 2006 for 485 currently! Does anybody know if this is really true or just that one IO not knowing what he was talking about? I know someone has raised this issue on some other thread earlier but till yesterday I did not personally hear this reply. I had called USCIS couple of times before and they all told me USCIS will process my application as per NSC processing time and as per my RD (not ND) till yesterday!

Now that the economy is in the toilet, it looks like people in H-1B will have to pay for it.
An ignorant group of people don't understand that the world has now changed. They can kick out all the H-1Bs or shut-down the whole H-1B category, but it won't make the U.S. any better. The companies will just start opening offices offshore and more jobs will be lost.
I am just awfully frustrated to see the fact that whenever something goes wrong in this country, the legal immigrant community will have to pay the price.

My understanding is that state in which you work you need to pay the taxes for that state. And I believe sometime in GC interview they ask for tax papers , during that time it should not create problems.

Even I am in similar situation. My EB3 ROW has PD of March 2006 (RD July 2007). I am not sure when my EB3 case will get approved. I have masters degree and 6 years of work experience. I can change job and get EB2 started. But will it help? Because going to new job and going through labor might take a year or more.
Could anyone please suggest whether I should change job at this point of time or wait for my EB3 case to approve?

Here is my suggestion:
Apply for H-4 as this should be straight-forward and fly your wife the US in March. Prepare H-1 papers and get it ready to reach USCIS on April 1st.
If H-1 is acceped in lottery(assuming there is going to be one), then H-1 status starts from October 1st. For travel purpose your wife will have to get H-1 stamping (which can happen only after October 1st).
Hope this helps.

What do you mean by filing ?
Is there anything to file for AC21 ? I somehow thought it's implicit and you just have to let USCIS know that you have changed your job. That's all. That too is not a mandatory task but most lawyers suggest it to play safe. I think it's matter of sending the letter with details to USCIS.
You just be prepared to explain at the 485 interview or reply to RFE's or NOID's if sent by USCIS, which wont happen till your 485 date is current or your sponsoring employer withdraws 140.
Best way to handle this, do not send any detail AC21 to INS, but keep all the documents emeployment offer with job description , paystub and W2 till you get RFE at 485 stage ( If lucky you may not get at all)
Again you may change job again before 485 stage hit.

I'm curious if anyone has got multiple RFEs on their I-485 application. I had an EVL RFE last year and wonder about the chances they'll give that (or any other) RFEs again in future.
Any personal experiences?
By multiple RFE I don't mean many questions in 1 RFE letter. I mean USCIS sends you 1 RFE, receives reply and resumes the case and then at a later point in time sends another RFE on the same application.
No personal experience but based on recent visa bulletin and slow movement prediction going forward I would not be surprised if they send another EVL RFE, especially if your PD is more recent. This is because if and when your PD is approaching to be current, that could take 2, 3 4 or even 5 years. They may ask for EVL again to verify you still have a job offer after 5 years.

Hi
My 6 years of H1B visa expires on Feb 2012. Can I transfer to H4 Dependant Visa on my wife's H1b Visa or F1 Visa for one year and after one year re-apply for a fresh H1B visa? or I have to go outside USA for one year and then Apply for fresh H1B Visa.
Thanks,
Raja

US did not invest in ou upbringing or education.
All those were paid by India (or other countries), we led unproductive part of our lives in India (or other countries)and contribute to US economy.
Free trained labor, in fact if you count spouse ->Buy one get one free.

If USCIS are not giving RN in 90 days. How they will give EAD in 90 days or they will give EAD with RN :) All these are to confuse the congress where we are complaining. :mad:
