i am trying to find what questions they can ask.
1.brith certificate is a concern rest all is good as far as i know.
If you check Rajiv Khanna's forum, you will find a number of interview transcripts. That should help ease your fears.
Again, you have not been picked for an interview due to problems in your case. It is purely random.

Got the status update email from USCIS stating a card has been issued for my 485 application.
I am not married yet. What are the implications if I get married to a citizen of india residing in India.
Kindly refer me to appropriate material if you know of any.
Thanks,
Akshay
Surprised to see that you were unware of this. Getting GC is painful process as we all know. There are three situations
1) Don't file I-485 till you get married. Risk, you might have already used 6 years on H1.
2) File your I-485 and get quickly married , then you can add your spouse. Do a court marriage in US and later you can do a marriage ceremony in India.
3) File your I-485 and get green card with out having chance to add your spouse
Since you fall in category 3, your situation may be worst.
Couple of options
1) If the girl(or guy :)) is in US, absolutely no problem. Only thing is if girl is already in US, you will get lot of family pressure from girl side.Have to compromise on lots of things. May be will become a house husband.
2) Girl from India, now you have to find a really smart girl who can get admission to universities or pass TOFEL GRE etc with flying colors. Then long distance affair starts. Girl in city X studying guy in city Y. Meeting once in a month. Lossing lot of money on commute and mental peace.The girl will have now her own friend circle and over period of time she might start liking someone else. Based on real situations.
3) Move to Canada and apply for Canadian citizenship. That's easier to get and easier to bring spouse there. But again you won't be able to bring her to US
4) Wait for 5 years. Who will want to wait for you 5 years.
Best Option
Return to your home country and enjoy life there. Believe me you won't have never any regret in life. It's just not worth for all the pains and miseries it bring in one's life. GC : Grievance Card.
Good luck with whatever you decide.
Cheers
Happy Independence Day 15th Aug

Thank you for your response raysaikat! Could you please rephrase your first part of the answer "This is not a valid reasoning. The "no" is not related to immigration intent. It is related to if you made factually correct statements."? It's a bit confusing.
There are two different things. (i) Intention to commit immigration fraud by mis-representing facts; (ii) Intention to immigrate.
By returning from the US after your trip, you have proved (ii) to be false (i.e., you did not have intention to immigrate at least at that time). However, that evidence does not prove (i) to be false.
You're saying I need to *prove* that I have no intention for immigrating to US. Do you mean that they must clearly see that I have no intention to stay in the US after I finish college?
Yes, it is a requirement for issuing F-1.
The I-130 form is pending so it's obvious I have such intentions. However, the process takes a very long time. Do you think that if I prove that I plan to go back home after school and then wait for the process in my home country I'll be issued a visa?
Good question, and I do not know the answer. What you say may be true. Please consult a qualified attorney (or ask your brother to consult one).
Do they have information regarding the "I-130" process in their database?
Yes. The IO should have access to all prior and pending immigration related activities associated with you.
I mean there is a chance they don't even ask about it. Well, last time we applied they didn't.
Also, do you think that my previous false response to the application form question could in some way affect my I-130 process? I mean I've returned back so in my understanding it shouldn't be a problem. Please explain.
It should not affect your I-130, but again, I am not a lawyer and you seem to need reliable answers (i.e., you need to consult a lawyer).
If I get lucky and get a visa issued. What happens next? Is it easy to switch to a working "H1B" visa from "F-1" visa and maintain this status until the end of the "I-130" process?
Yes, H1-B is dual-intent. I.e., you do not need to prove non-immigration intent for getting an H1-B stamp.
Is it ok to leave the country while on "H1B" status while "I-130" pending? Please comment. Thank you.
I am not familiar about I-130 that much. If I-130 is similar to I-140, then it is okay to leave US while it is pending. However, if you file I-485, then you must have Advanced Parole before leaving US. Again, a question for a lawyer.

Thank you all four replies. You guys are relly helpful. I did not change state, I just moved from one street to another street with in the same city.
But only thing is I am working for different employer and I have NOT yet applied AC21. If this RFE is about "employment verification", I am thinking of sending from new employer since my I 485 filed more than 6 months. I hope this is ok. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Interpretation of a rule or law is not absolute but in context. Your lawyer seems to have forgotten that and is generalizing a ruling.
What has the ruling said: There will be an audit for business necessity if the job requirements exceed the Zone requirements the job is in.
IT occupations include various senior level positions too which require several years of work experience and advanced degree. As long as the sponsoring company is able to prove that they need a person having those qualifications/skills the labor is likely to be approved under EB2.
Non-IT Masters degrees do not automatically come under EB2 either, as one of the members thinks it will. If that is truly the case, then the DOL might be soon looking at a lawsuit challenging the premise that non-IT occupations are somehow more demanding and require more preparation and experience, which warrants that it be placed in EB2.

Dear <newschannel /congress/senator/legislator name here>,
While the coverage that we "potential" legal immigrants received during the CIR debate was abysmal because we were not considered "human interest" pieces by journalists and editors. We have been subjected to another slap in the face by a broken immigration system.
Please see:
http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=22804
"Administration Slams Door on Thousands of Legal Immigrants: AILA Condemns Agencies' Bait and Switch
Cite as "AILA InfoNet Doc. No. 07070264""
This news has so far only got brief coverage in a few websites. Among them include:-
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070703/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/immigration_green_cards

http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&ie=UTF-8&ncl=1117797588
We hope that this press release is sufficient to now categorize us as a human interest piece. It is ironic that those crossing the borders illegally get front page coverage, while the tens of thousands of us going through the legal channels get ignored. Many of us have spent hundreds of dollars and wasted time, effort and money, only to be rudely slapped in the face by this visa bulletin revision. Any coverage will be appreciated.
Thanks,

Talash, this is not normal. Your notice could have been lost in the mail. Ask your attorney to contact USCIS and explain. Also employers can request a courtesy copy. So also ask your employer to request one. USCIS will not entertain any request from you, since I140 is a employer filed petition.

Most of the problems will be resolved after making legislation on the 2 options which can be easily done.
1. Remove 7% per country cap and come with more scientific number based on the H1B approvals since 2000 to get more weight to India, China, Philippines and Mexico.
2. Throw the unused numbers wide open at the end of Fiscal year based on Priority Dates. No country cap in this case.
3. Keep one Visa number per family. This one is tough to get pass through House and Senate.
The first 2 options are more feasible and can be done quietly without much political and public confrontation.

I am GCBikari and I approve this message. You are saying you ran out of savings and in next paragraph you're talking about investments!! Anyway what I did was list out all minimum payments (rent/mortgage, car, utilities, groceries, gas). This gives the money needed every month in worst case. Then multiply by 6 months. Keep that amount in bank or a locker (now a days difficult to trust banks also!!). Then go for what others talk about like 401k, Roth IRA.. You will have a better start once you know how much you need per month to make a living on bare minimum.
My recommendation would be to build at least 6 months of emergency fund. Open an account with ING Direct or HSBC where they pay decent interest rate on a savigs account. Build the emergency fund first.
Once you have sufficient foundation, then I'd say start building investment foundation. If you employer has 4o1K plan, then start putting pre-tax dollars upto the maximum contribution at employer matches (generally it is 6%). If your employer doesn't have 401K plan, then open a ROTH IRA and start investing in low cost mutual funds or index funds. Vanguard is generally the best place to get low cost, no load funds. Once you max out both 4o1K and ROTH IRA, then start looking into opening a taxable individual investment account.
Hope this helps.
Disclaimer: I've all of the above I'm recommending and have followed the same plan I've given you.

on 630 KHOW (Capliss & Silverman).
Congressman Udall spoke at length how the conference committee is formed, how it operates and how decisions are reached.
One thing he said is particularly noteworthy. He said, he reads his fellow congressmen and the mood of the House, and at this moment there are 300 congressmen (out of a total of 525) willing to vote in favor of the senate version of the comprehensive immigration bill as it is.
As I said in my posts elsewhere in IV, let's keep our eyes and ears open for the opnions of representatives and follow up on that.
300 out of 435 Reps is a huge and victorious number! Or, did you include the 100 Senators in the broad definition of Congressmen? Even, then 300-67 = 233 is a successful number in the House!

Please consult with an immigration attorney, to make sure your stay is legal. if your i-94 expired, unless you get the revised I-94 with the valid dates, your stay is illegal. If it is more than 180 days, then you are in deep trouble. Consult with an attorney and prepare to leave.....

After eight years my husband is almost able to work (waiting for EAD) and my son has aged out for derivative benefits and is on an F1 with no realistic path to permanent residency and eventual citizenship.
I agree, those who crossed a border illegally or overstayed are now looking at the American Dream being handed to them.
The DREAM act, if it stays in the legislation will give the children of the illegals state tuition rates (I work for the university my son attends and found it hard to get in state tuition rates for him) and they will also get conditional residency and will be able to apply for their own green cards after five years.
Amazing really, that we are seeing and hearing this in the land we chose to live in which claims to be a land where the rule of law is paramount.
I am in the same boat. Waiting in GC line for 5 years. LC still pending. Two children - one aged out two years ago, other will age out in 3 months. We were hoping that DREAM Act will get them through. But no, that benefit will be reserved only for children of illegals. Only they will get in-state tuition, and can apply for GC till age 30. If you are child of legal alien, you age out at 21. What a cruel joke!

unfortunately, I think there is more demand than supply for EB2 India Mostly (maybe China too)...which will not let any relief be brought to any EB3 categories....If USCIS keeps allocating spillovers to EB2...they will never quell that demand.
I agree with Nixtor that dates for EB2 (I and C) will go back again..to at least 2004 if not later.

But at least they are getting GC in 6 months. I dont mind getting paid low if it means getting GC in 6 months. Anyways half our money goes in getting h1 extensions and paying lawyers so might as well get it over with by getting paid low. It is so disheartening to know how people are abusing the law and getting GC the short cut way while our stuggle starts with getting admission to f1 to doing our masters to trying to get h1 and then GC.
I have a friend who has done his MS from a top school here and his wife is a dentist but cant work for last 5 years and here is a guy whose education is a BCom and his wife's too and both are working and have got the whole thing the easy way out. Very disheartening.
people are not abusing the law, the fact is law it self is screwed up, it does not have a rational way of distingushing geneuine pople from abusers.
hence everybody pays the price. it needs a major overhaul not just increasing numbers of H1B or GC's but lot of enforcement measures are also required to make it effective. I see people have been waiting 8 years with the same employer just for the GC, I think a wait of 4 to 5 years should be good enough to demonstrate that a guy has a permanent job, on the other hand if the wait is to short then people will by just buy the green card by paying to companies , which what we see with labor substitution.
thanks
