A# is the alien number that is given to the applicant during the GC process. It is either given at 140 approval or at 485. If you have a A# in your 140 approval then you can use that # in all your 485 forms.
To answer pranju's question, yes its only for primary applicant. You can leave that field as blank for your spouse.
What is A#?
Thanks

I agree with what you are saying. But, we need to compare the taxes too. Not sure of the taxes charged by vonage when compared with teleblend.
even if the taxes are slightly more, vonage gives you 2 months free (save $50) and ships you adapter free, no shipping and activation with a referral. Your referrer gets 2 months free too. If you put this in to mathematics, vonage may come out cheaper than teleblend. Additonally its much more established and bigger VOIP provider.
However teleblend now offers unlimited US, Canada etc only for $99 for 1 year. This is unbeatable as it comes out roughly $8 per month. Good option to consider for those who do not need unlimited india plan.

Received the CPO email on the 30th :). Here is my details:
Category: EB2
Country: India
Priority Date: 28th March 2006
Interviewed last September (2009), when I was told that my case is approved and waiting for visa number.
Second fingerprint on September 20th 2010
Lawyer was told that my case is being "held" since there was no visa number available after my 2nd fingerprint cleared, so I wasn't expecting anything until Oct 1st, so was obviously pleasantly surprised.

Do not think this to discourage or anything like that...
Guys .. Pls stop dreaming.. you do not have any idea what you are talking about..
Guys in this thread may be newcomers to the game..
I was here since 1998... and cud not stop surprised to see the ideas in this thread..veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryy yyyyyyyy farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr from reality.
Better to wor for admin things like visa recapture, some admin things within INS w/o any legislative action.
Do you guys have any idea that it needs legislative approval for things you are dreaming of...
It means it shd win in 100 members senate and in 500+ members house.
As Pappu suggested it is better to get more publicity, funds and then work for few admin things first(Gives a big relief) ...
But guys, what you are thinking is far beyond the dream itself.
I guess Pappu is the only guy active in Core now...
However let us concentrate as Core suggested, as they know the realities/pains involved.
Pappu, any core members active other than yourself, because i did not see a core member other than you fr more than a year...
Buddy some genuine dream may come true. We are thinking logically and it may become true. We are not trying to get any shortcut to get the Citizenship. Think High... You will Achieve...

I am not on L1, neither do I work in the kind of an assignment which will come under the radar due to this - but have many friends on L1. Hence I think I may have a slightly more balanced and perhaps somewhat sobering POV on this.
Since I have many friends on L1 - I know pretty well how they are abused by their employers. Just the fact that you cant quit the employer enables some forms of abuse so subtle that they will not stand in any court of law. So I hope for the sake of people on L1, and to uphold the rule of law - that this abuse stops. If it does - their employers would be forced to bring them in H1 - which is far less prone to abuse due to the portability.
However, the current "run to the DOL/ICE" approach that you guys are taking may have repurcussions well beyond you had bargained for. Think of it from the POV of a client manager (lets take the example of, say, a goldman manager). He has his hands full of sucking up to his boss, playing the internal politics and in his spare time doing some work. 99% of them (even those who actually immigrated themselves) have no appetite to get into the details of immigration law. So, as soon as there is a backlash on this - their immediate response would be to take the safest route out and require Citizenship/GC for all positions.
As soon as that wave starts - many of us are going to get burnt. Many of us who have EAD, including yours truely, would probably be able to sneak through without too much of an issue (since it is illegal to discriminate against EADs) - however, many others who are not so fortunate would probably not fare so well. Most probably what will happen is that as soon as a recruiter sees brown skin and hears some trace of an accent - alerm bells would go off in the mind to check if this guy is GC holder or a citizen.
The enabler of the L1 abuse is the non-portability of these visas. We cant do much about that in the current environment. But going all gung ho in terms of enforcement right now -when there is a recession in full swing - may not be in the best interest of any of us.

Guyz, this is what my theory about Responsibility.
Any loan is 100% risk in theory.
In Debt-based economy (such as US primarily) Bank (or lender) has obligation to verify if the loaner is capable of paying the monthly mortgage. Especially when they are giving 0% down and false documentation (HIGH RISK LOANERS) they assess that mortgage highest risk.
Now, there are financial institutions who will combine the all these mortgages into big pile and spin-off into mortage-backed securities. There are agencies rating these into A+, A++, A+++, B+ blah blah...
Watch PBS network for this.
These securities are bought out by some other companies (may be good companies who never would have loaned these HIGH RISK LOANERS).
Now this goes on goes on and crosses country boundaries in the current global economical CHAIN.
Everyone thought that (blindsighted) Mortgage prices are going to go up no matter what. But if you are not creating jobs which will drive internal growth of these economies how are you going to get more DEMAND?
Hence, when US market goes down, Japan suffers, China suffers and India too (software exports cutback etc).
So, the level responsibility and ethical conduct applies to EVERYBODY in this chain.
We are all part of it directly or indirectly weather we say yes or no. The naysayers do not know complete picture, I assume. Even I do not know complete picture yet.
However, common sense will taught you to be FAIR. So, anytime you say, I want to MAKE MONEY there is a catch of MIGHT LOOSE MONEY. Take anything. Even currency note says, IN GOD WE TRUST.
May God Bless Everyone!

No. Not in May, but sometimes during 2011 the chances that Jan 2007 will be current is extremely good. Good luck.

OH law website says that the bill will be introduced around 10.15 today morning.
So has any discussion started yet?
OH website also mentioned that there are around 500,000 visa unsed since 1990.
If HR5882 passes today's debate, where will it go then?

Thanks ..So do you have any idea about how long USCIS takes in this situation to complete the name change?
It's tough to tell. According to processing times on usics.gov, I-90 takes 3.5 months in Nebraska service center. But the form is supposed to be mailed to Phoenix and I could not find any times for the Phoenix office. Since it's a simple correction, I'm hoping a 2-3 week turnaround time but be prepared for a 3+ month wait. If you need to travel, it's better to get an I-551 stamp in your passport so you can travel regardless.

Please dont use google it is a waste of time - FBI uses its own databases and looks for 'hits' in terms of derogatory information.
Instead lobby for the following:-
1) USCIS should have the authority to ask FBI as to why the namecheck is taking so long and provision to expediate name check if it is has been pending for more than 'x' number of years (probably 2 or 3 i guess).
2) FBI should provide a reason for the delay. Most of the time (80%) the delay is simply because they dont have the time to open your file.
3) Procedure to Pay $500-$1000 to expediate NC (1 week) with a yes or No result. this will all allow FBI to obtain resources to process NCs faster
NC is the next bottle neck that we have to lobby for.
Asking USCIS to expedite the NAME CHECK only after 2 years is UNACCEPTABLE!! NameChecks should have resolution within 3 months. Its a security issue.
It is the USCIS which initiates the NAMECHECK process and it also has expanded the scope of NAMECHECK increasing the backlog. So, we need to go after USCIS and should NOT PAY more in this INEFFICIENT process!

Dr. Martin recommends that:
1.Policies must be flexible enough to respond to changing market conditions;
2.Visa categories, which have become so complicated they often require professional assistance to navigate, should be simplified;
3.The government apparatus for managing applications should be better funded and more efficient;
4.Requirements for workers and employers should be reasonable and consistent with the way the labor market functions (so for jobs that are not temporary, workers should be given an option to transition to permanent status);
5.Workers should have mobility among jobs and employers; and
6.Employment of unauthorized migrants must be curtailed.

If USCIS recaptures lost visas (estimated to be in the range 300k-600k), all of us will be current. IV should start a drive to push for the recapture ....even if it is partial, it would help everybody in a big way.
