Please do vote..
Guys how does one edit a poll after creation.
Can somebody from Iv admin modify the poll so users can see who has voted what here.
So, obviously, you are not expecting any EB3 I to vote, right?
Or do you want EB3 I also to vote?

Do you have your I-140 approved and if yes, have you passed 180 days since you filed your I-485? If answer to both the response is yes, then nothing to worry about as you can simply work on EAD.
If you are still considering transfering H1-B, start looking for a company immediately. Small India companies who do H1 transfer can be little helpful in your scenario but watch out for crooks.
Yes. my I-140 is Approved and 180 days has passed. How much time will i have to transfer H1B without loosing H1B status? Thanks for your response.

Please join your state chapters and participate in this all important action item.
Take a moment to think about this:
If the bills don't pass before the end of this fiscal year, then we are stuck for one more year (wishing and hoping) before any provisions pass and take effect in Oct 2009. Even if there are any provisions that take effect in Oct 2009, we have to consider the delays due to USCIS backlogs (imagine what CIR will do) and adjudication time. There is really no fun in this lifestyle of uncertainty. This is our chance to make it happen for us. Let each one of us play a key role in deciding our own future. Let's do it.

From what i know, if you have an Indian Passport and a US Green card, the only countries you can travel to without any visitor/tourist visa requirements are India, USA, Canada, and Bahamas
Are there any other countries I can go to which don't require a Visa or will grant a visa on arrival?
Thanks.
I think switzerland does not reqire a visa (did not until few years ago). There are other Carribean countries such as Domincan Rep, Jamaica etc that don't require a visa, if you have a GC.

It is true that the community colleges(A) and Arizona board of regents(B) set the guidelines but they have to follow Arizona Statutes which state that people with lawful immigration status are entitled to instate tuition. Therefore if (A) and (B) are not on the same page one could raise questions.
I am providing below the statutes as well as what the Arizona Board of Regents say. It appears that the Board of Regents do not provide clarity on the issue. I think one could force the issue and demand that they be given instate tuition as provided by the Arizona statutes and Board of Regents Interpretation.
In fact GC Card Dream should file an appeal to the Board of Regents as provided in their policy. Adding that community colleges allow H-1B's to avail of instate tuition would help get a decision in your favor.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the Arizona law for instate tuition -
Here is the link to all the statutes -
http://www.azleg.state.az.us/ArizonaRevisedStatutes.asp?Title=15
Go to chapter 14 to see statutes for education -
The applicable statutes are -
15-1803. Alien in-state student status
.....................
B. In accordance with the illegal immigration reform and immigrant responsibility act of 1996 (P.L. 104-208; 110 stat. 3009), a person who was not a citizen or legal resident of the United States or who is without lawful immigration status is not entitled to classification as an in-state student pursuant to section 15-1802 or entitled to classification as a county resident pursuant to section 15-1802.01.
........................
15-1805. Student status guidelines
A. The Arizona board of regents shall adopt guidelines applicable to all institutions under their jurisdiction that will ensure uniform criteria to aid the institutions in determining the tuition status of any student and that will establish uniform procedures for review of that status.
B. Community college districts shall adopt policies applicable to all institutions under their jurisdiction that will ensure uniform criteria to aid the institutions in determining the tuition status of any student and that will establish uniform procedures for review of that status.
---------------------------
Now here is the link to the Arizona Board of Regents
http://www.abor.asu.edu/1_the_regents/reports_factbook/residency.html
What is the resident status of immigrants, refugees and international students?
A noncitizen with a visa that prohibits establishing a domicile in Arizona during any portion of the durational period may not be granted resident status. Other noncitizens may qualify for resident status by meeting all requirements for residency outlined previously, or having been granted refugee status and meeting all other requirements for domicile.
---The above should be read with the definition of domicile in the statutes
15-1801. Definitions
In this article, unless the context otherwise requires:
....
3. "Domicile" means a person's true, fixed and permanent home and place of habitation. It is the place where he intends to remain and to which he expects to return when he leaves without intending to establish a new domicile elsewhere.
...............
and the actual Arizona Board of Regents policy as a pdf document
http://www.abor.asu.edu/1_the_regents/policymanual/chap4/chapter_iv.htm
4-102 Nonresident Tuition (PDF)
As required by A.R.S. �15-1803, a person who is not a citizen or legal resident of the United States or who is without lawful immigration status is not entitled to classification as an in-state resident.
I don't think the state is involved, but its the institution that makes its own set of rules. All the community colleges in the state of Arizona accepts both H and L status as proof of residency.

Hey, I want soul to win this, his is awesome.
I think if I did my original idea I would have gotten more than 1 vote, but no where near 20 like Soul has now.
But I will never reveal what my original idea was :bad: Just in case I decide to do it some other time in the future.

Optimist528 is right..!!!
The rule of 180 days works out bad only if you leave your GC sponcering company before 180 days and u r 485 gets approved beofre 180 days.
Otherwise you can move the very next day after filing the 485 provided you i-140 is approved.
form the back log approval of 485 is slim for many applicant...so u can jump to new job provided your i -140 is approved...!!!!

Should there not be a separate Green card quota for anyone with a USA Masters Degree in any field?
If USA does that, more people will pay to come to study in USA. Not go to Australia, UK etc to study. So more money to USA. And USA degree holders will be able to use this education and work in USA to improve USA economy. If they go back to their countries, then USA has brain drain.
If they have separate quota for H1, separate H1B quota for Masters Degrees, what is wrong to have one for Green Card?
Please support on this thread if you agree.
Would you have supported this if you did not have a masters?

I have some good news and some bad news!
The bad news is that. You will get your green card in 5 years and after other five years you will get your citizenship. So in 10 years will be in position to get married.
Now , you will be wondering what is the good news.
Well!, I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switiching to GEICO.
LOL, this is very funny. Had a good laugh this friday morning.

I agree with you. I was bit tense to see RFE email since it is my first RFE. I will try to avoid giving urgent words.
Thanks anyway for your reply.
I gave you a thumbs up for accepting that it was unnecessary starting this thread. What you did is something that is completely missing on this forum - a little bit of humility would be so nice out here.

So people should stop asking, right? Every now and then, people are asking whether it is from Receipt Date or from Notice Date.
People calling the USCIS Customer Service for EAD (90 days) always get an answer that it is from Notice Date. We know it is from Receipt date, not notice date.
Anyway, as I was saying, it is your path. I have chosen mine.

I received an RFE too in Nov 1st week. It was about the evaluation. (It was submitted earlier but still) Lawyer mailed them the required document and now the status has changed to "We received your response to the request on Nov 14th and the case processing has resumed".
How many days does it take them now to make a decision? (Btw I am EB3 and my 140 submission date was Nov 2006)
lookin at the approvals i think it will take anywhere from 1-3 months
