what kind of logic / law is here, if you are a US citizen you can marry and bring your spouse, if you are on pending 485 you can bring but if you become LPR you have to wait for 5 years......
Is there any background for this restriction......... looks stupid to me.:mad:

My Lawyer does whatever my employer tells him. They never give any receipt notice or approval notice to employees.
They did not even let me file my EAD and AP along with I-485.
I can file EAD/AP myself but I'm worried they might not give me the receipt notice of my I-485 filed in july, in a last ditch effort to prevent me from fleeing(I don't yet have any intention btw) or atleast make it difficult for me.
I'm sure there would be many in this situation.
Any thoughts what can be done?
IF you have used your personal checks the receipt is usually at the back of the checks. Esle just call the help desk and give all your information and if the guy is in good mood he can provide you the receipt number.

techy2468 same here. i had deleted part of my last post even before u replied because i felt it was going off topic.
"post office monthly income scheme" - that is good info i will definitely check on that.
In short as long as a person is on H1B he is no better than his indian counter part working in a multinational or maybe he is worse, atleast person in india is close to family ,spouse can work anywhere etc etc.
So the sooner the person gets GC the faster he has made his efforts worthwile - otherwise he will find his story similar to what sai posted in first article of this thread.

Libra,
I think everybody here appreciates your effort to get people to contribute. But use of such demeaning language is simply uncalled for.
This approach will simply drive away new members and degrade IV's reputation.
Another question is how do you know if somebody has not contributed. Maybe they did, but just didn't update their signature.
I almost don't feel like visiting here anymore because of all this. Bu you know what, missions of IV are way more important to us.. so much that we are willing to put up with all this and help IV further its missions.
Maybe, we should explore other avenue of making money, like banner ads and targeted SE ads.
People who come here just to create threads and post all silly things need to get remind that this forum/organization is ran by members contribution, people like me who are contributing are allowing you to use this site. You better get this.
And somebody said it right, to contribute someone has to be huMAN.

unmarried then why not marry a US citizen..... that will take care of all your "problems" says AjameriBaba..... :D
Well said adhantari.....When I look at few of my friends who married USC and how simple their became after that and how well they grew professionally, I sometime
wonder why more folks don't follow that path.
That is the advice I give to people from India in their early 20s who come to US.
I tell them not to spoil their lives over the PERM-I140-I485. It sucks the energy of their lives. One will easily lose 15 years of their life without much professional growth.

Did your employer get a new LCA for the CA project when you changed projects? ... just one more thing to check before you send in the RFE response with new contract.

If he stayed for 180 days and used AC21 then AC21 WILL protect this person
Just to add, this is the risk of not working for the company after getting the EAD. The employer can easily prove that the person had no intention of working for the company. AC21 cannot protect that person.

We also filed on July 2nd at NSC.. got EAD and AP. buit no sign of FP yet. we were also out of country for last 3- 4 weeks. Is there chance we could have missed it?

I understood that if your employer revokes I-140 you have to start the process all over again with a new emplyer, even with AC21. i thought only if the employer does not revoke can you keep your PD and continue from I-485 stage with the new employer. someone, please confirm if this is wrong/correct
I think answer is - Wrong.
My understanding (after reading a lot on multiple sites; I am not a lawyer) is that once you file I140 and I485 and six months are passed you can use AC21 provisions and continue the same I485 application if the new positions is same/similar even if old I140 is revoked. There are multiple scenarios here each having different levels of risks/issues (again as per my understanding):
(i) You filed I140 and I485 (concurrent or separate). I140 is approved. I485 is pending for six months. You got a job with another employer with same/similar function (i.e. same SOC code; and salary is not radically different; similar title). This is the straight forward case. You can change the job � send a letter to UCSIS in a proper format informing them of your job change and new address if any. No need to start the process from scratch at new place even if old employer revokes your I140 your 485 should be approved when priority dates are current.
(ii) You filed I140 and I485 (concurrent or separate). I140 is NOT approved. I485 is pending for six months. This is a bit complicated case but heard still possible if the old employer does not revoke the I140; but if its revoked then back to square one at new employer. It might be possible to keep the priority date if relevant docs are collected (see next).
(iii) I140 is approved, you havnt yet applied for 485. If you change jobs you �might� be able to keep the priority date (if you can get documents). I am not sure if we can keep priority dates if I140 is revoked in this case.
Please comment if my understanding is correct.
Also on a related subject what happens to H1b extension if underlying I140 is revoked? My case is like this: am in 6th year of H1B; applying for I140. Once its approved, planning to apply for 3year extension. After that change employers with new 3year H1B (I know the process has to start fresh at the new place). What happens to my H1B if the old employer revokes the I140. Does this mean my extended h1b is invalid or I can continue without any issues? Anyone in similar situation?

One simple and effective way to increase membership is to get your spouse informed and registered.
I know my wife has just as large a network as I do, so that is one more avenue to get the word out.

Interesting...looks like this bill is moving faster than we'd think...it would be interesting to see where it ends up. Also, it appears that this bill does not talk about giving the DV visas to existing EB-X categories but instead to create a new EB category for STEM graduates...not sure, but that's what it sounds like.

USCIS is trying to make EB2 all countries Current sometime during FY 2009. Of course "a few" 2004, 2005 cases will still be pending past Oct08 but hopefully not too many.
If EB1 and EB2 are shown as current soon, then the DOS can transfer the so-called "spillover" into EB3 ROW, then into EB3 IN & CH.
Based on available numbers, EB3 India / China will see rapid movement in dates April 09 Visa Bulletin onwards.
What will happen during 2009 in all likelihood is the following,
Almost all EB1 spillover will go to EB3. (~ 25k)
Some of EB1 and all of EB2 spillover will go to EB2 IN/CH (~ 10k to 15k)
In 2009, there will be no more Name Check delays - therefore expect rapid EB3 approvals after April 09.

Thanks Krishna and snathan! That answers most of my questions.
snathan:
11) is it possible to switch the GC processing to "future employment", although the Labor/I-140 were approved with the understanding that I was to continue working for the same employer?
12) is the H1 visa/Priority Date of approved labor/I-140 carried over when the individual changes citizenship - from Indian to Canadian?
NO
I guess you meant "NO" to # 11 and "YES" to #12 - right?

I agree with sri1309. This would stop the bleeding of the economic crisis. Folks just wont stop by buying house alone, they all will be motivated to spend more money. guys, our folks most of them are well positioned with good paying jobs and pay and the only reason for not spending and not buy houses are because of the insecurity of the stay due to the h1b extension.
We all to some extent know that this whole mess is due to the deregulation of the financial institiution and because of which high supply of houses ( SUPPLY and DEMAND. Now with the bailout government owns all these houses). By passing some legislation can control the deregulation but how do you sell the government owned houses quickly to the people? who will buy? Immigration is the best option. Here is my recommendation, regulate and tightenend the loans for the house constructing companies to control the supply side from the constructing compnay and issue green cards to all the legal immigrants to increase the demand side of the equation. Additionally bringing the ?? milliion illegal immigrants to legal will increase the tax revenue of the government. My 2cents says that whoever the next president, the comprehensive immigration reforms would be the best solutions for solving the current economic mess.

If you have a project, there are companies who will keep $6 hr and 10% as payroll taxes.
Let me know, if you want more details.
P.S. I am not connected with the company, but I know people who worked in that company for years.
I know of a company which will keep $2 + 10% for payroll taxes. A lot better than the one above.
There is so much competetion in this space that people have reduced their margins to next to nothing.
