Do they seek some sort of public opinion? If yes, Is that open to non U S citizens? Is there some kind of voting involved? We can touch base with UTD Student Associations so that they can forward it to their alumni who are still in that area.

Are there any runners, joggers, walkers out there? Has anyone heard of running teams like Team Leukemia, Team AIDS, Race for the Cure - Team Susan G Komen??
Well, I would like to propose a Team IV. There would be a nominal fee, say $50 or $75, to join the walking/running club and you would get one running T shirt (with IV logo) to wear at local runs/walks. This way we get our name out in the community. And just like Team Leukemia, each Team IV member will conduct 1 fundraising event per quarter or per 6 months. At the end of the fundraising year, we should donate a portion of our collections to a local or national charity. The donation will come from Immigration Voice. This way, Immigration Voice members have another reason to be proud of what we bring to the plate as employment based legal immigrants.
If there is such a running/walking team out there, please let me know as I would love to join and support the cause. If there is interest to establish such a Team, please let me know.

Wanted to see if there is a provision to call the lockbox facility or uscis to enquire on the status of the application.
i am worried since i have not seen any activity on this for about a 4 weeks now.
please advise.
Do not worry, yesterday my application was sent back saying asking for i-485 receipt as i had initially sent them I-485 transfer notice ,my application was mailed to phoenix mailbox on 5/7/10 so yes they are taking longer time ...but you should see some kind of activity for sure..do not worry

I have similar situation - I applied for 140 in July 2006. My daughter will turn 21 in July 2007. As I have applied for 140 before she turns 21, she is safe for GC, but will loose H4 status when she turns 21. As per my lawyer's advice I have applied for her F1 so that she can stay and continue her studies in US. When I become eligible to apply for 485, she can be included in the application - but, not as a dependent of H1B holder.
Can you apply for AOS for your daughter with your 485 application after she moves from H4 to F1?

If you have a 3 year H1 extension (like I do now) you can get a stamping for 3 years and wont get tied up in AP extension filing etc. With the flood of applicants in July I think USCIS is going to take much longer to process AP/EAD and I am expecting periods between APs where I would be stuck, unable to travel. With a 3 year H1 stamp all those issues go away.
Traveling on AP also has the funny effect that your I-94 would be stamped to the expiry of the AP (1 year) rather than H1 (3 years) and I dont know what happens when that I-94 expires... H1 travel is simpler once you have a long lasting H1 stamp. Main advantage of AP is I can renew without leaving the country and if my I-485 ever gets approved when I am outside the country, I can re-enter (my H1 would be invalid at that point)
Thanks, that explains. I realized only couple of weeks back that i didn't need AP since my H1 stamping is valid until 2008 end and hopefully my GC will be approved by then. Anyway now i have backup since my AP also got approved yday.
btw, i read somewhere here that when your AP I-94 is about to expire you ammend that with your H1 so you will have the H1 expiry date.

I am little confused here, do they take into account the reciept date or Notice Date ?.
My Application was sent on July 2, and ack on July2, however the application got transferred to Nebrska, CA and back to Nebraska, and I am told the Notice Date is Aug 30. (If I go to Online website it says On Aug 30 we recd your appln like that) But I am July 2 filer.
So if I want to move, should I think i am safe after 180 days which is jan 3 or is it March ?

1) First thing is, the I-94 on COS approval and I-94, currently present in my Passport does not match.
2) First name and middle name are interchanged in the passport and H1 approval.
Is this going to create any problem while applying SSN? What are the possible consequences..
Also, any similar scenarios, plz respond..
First, I do not think there will be any one with similar scenarios!
The names on the two I-94s do not match because you used the old name when entering the country. <-- your fault. DMV is not an authority on immigration. My best guess is that the newer I-94 prevails.
First Name and Middle Name got interchanged because of USCIS error. You should contact them and get this resolved. They will probably send you a new approval notice with a new I-94.
Its better to be safe than sorry. You should get the name corrected asap.

I came back via Frankfurt last month. AP no prob. But be aware of Lufthansa. It was worst trip of my life. Bugger airline had cancelled flight from FRA to Mumbai without notifying. They gave me two options after I landed at FRA. 1. Wait at airport for 27 HOURS for next days flight (as they don't give Indians visa @ airport for hotel stay) or 2. Wait for another 6 hours at airport, then take flight from FRA to zurich, wait at zurich for 3 hrs, then zurich to Dubai, wait at dubai for 3 hrs and then dubai to Mumbai. Unwillingly I had to accept 2nd option.
Staff is damn rude, had to wait in long line for 3 hours to talk to cust service.
Never in my life will I travel with Lufthansa :mad: :mad: :mad:
Did anybody fly recently in Lufthansa to India? I wanted to know whether you need transit visa.
I have booked the tickets in Lufthansa to india in Dec.
My travel agent says you dont need transit visa if you have AP.
Since i have time now, i can apply nowif needed.
Also please give me the details about the appln forms to apply for the transit visa.
please advise.

Guys,
It purely depends on your personal circumstances and how much you are willing to stretch. Though the life in Canadian - US is pretty similar, in my experience we all are so attached to the US that moving to Canada may not work for all of us.
I had Canadian PR in Year 2000 , i temporariliy moved to explore my option with longterm plans , but unfortunately it did not work out , i even tried windsor-detroit option, it too stressful and i personally feel it ani't worth !!
My 2 cents!!!

I have not been laid off and I don't have problems finding jobs; in fact my company has asked me to search for one more person with a background similar to mine. However I have been limited by the requirements of AC21. I was toying with the idea of leaving the country; but cannot sell my primary residence and might have problems obtaining a visitor visa for re-entry (to close on the house). I was seriously considering investing in some more real estate; but am holding back due to the random AC21 denials. I want to start my own business since I finally got my EAD this year - but with all the uncertainity of AC21 case approvals, I am not willing to put personal resources into a business in this country. Currently I am working on starting a free workshop for investment in my community - which will stop if my I-485 is denied in case my former employer revokes my I-140 (and yes; I did send in the letters for AC21). I have registered my dog with therapy international and volunteer my time for various causes (cabin repair, trail maintenance, public education) and donate regularly to the fire and police - all of these will take a hit if I have to leave.
I wonder what the reporter will conclude if he/she talks to immigrants who have lost jobs and have trouble finding new projects........
Anyway, let me know if I can be of any help.
A top national reporter wants to speak with someone in EB
community who may have recently lost his/her job due to current
economic situation. I think it would be best for our cause for someone
who was offered a new job possibly in the 'same or similar' area
immediately after losing their job. It would help to highlight that
the highly-skilled immigrants are in demand because of their skills
even when the economic situation is not doing well, but, there is no
reason to keep us in limbo for over a decade, merely to test our skill
level. There are better ways to test our skill level. If you or
someone you know fits this profile, kindly email your information and contact details to info at immigrationvoice.org
immediately.
The reporter will also highlight the housing angle and that we can
start new ventures that could potentially create new jobs to uplift
the economy.
This is a big opportunity as the interview from this reporter will be published in most big newspapers and on news websites. We need someone urgently today if possible.
===================
UPDATE FROM THE REPORTER
Actually, what I'm looking for is very broad -- anyone on a work permit
who is concerned about the current economic situation and job losses in
the U.S. economy.
==============
The reporter is trying to speak to immigrants waiting for their Greencards about their concerns about job security, if they have a plan B, if they've been pushed out in restructurings/layoffs and moved to a new job, etc, as they hear the layoffs this year are affecting such people, particularly in the
financial sector
====================
So I guess a lot of people on the forum will qualify. If you are good with interviews, pls contact asap.

I would love to take the lead with this project. I have done a fund raising initiative for Arthritis Foundation of America when I ran the Mardi Gras Marathon in honor of my mom. I raised $1,100 in a 6 month period for the AFA. The idea I have is that Team IV members will participate at their local events and we should pick 3 national events such as the Chicago Marathon/Half Marathon, the Breakers 10K (is that San Diego?) and even the Crescent City Classic 10K right here in my hometown. Team IV should be well represented at these 3 national events.
Team IV members can set up an e-mail support group when training for any events. There are numerous on-line training guides which we can use. And I can also look into the idea of an on-line training coach.
I already have the committment from 4 friends, all of whom are US Citizens, to join this Team because they support our cause.

Due to a one time $25, you had donor status for a month. We had given you donor status and access for more than a month until 19 July 2009 for you to renew your subscription.

It appears that most of the one sided agreeements mentioned above are not legal. For eg if in ur offer letter u have 2 weeks of notice period from your side and company says they can termniate you without any notice period then its not legal.
I think only 2 side agreements are legal and all other agreements even if you sign are not legal.
(pls confirm with ur lawyer ...)
Yes , i am with you.
LostInGCProcess , whats you said is also right in few cases, But in cases of employment it could not be.
If i ask a person to sign on a piece of contract , to be my slave ..Would it be legal :-)

How about Mexico? I saw some notes on tavle.state.gov (Mexico (http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_970.html)), which says -
"As of May 1, 2010, non-U.S. citizens with valid U.S. visas may enter Mexico with the U.S. visa, and do not have to obtain a Mexican visa. "
No visa required with GC. But, since I only had my AP, they asked me to get a Mexican visa ($36). The above rule must be new (no visas needed with non-immigrant US visas).

Hi Macaca:
USCIS cannot reject PERM as USCIS has nothing to do with PERM. PERM is done by the dept of labor, and this agency is not part of USCIS.
In terms of PERM, PERM is not considered an "immigrant petition" and thus would not be deemed as violation of status. PERM is berely the assurance there is no workers who want to take the job in the position beeing sought. Note, that when you go for a visa, one of the questions asked is, Have you ever filed an immigrant visa petions, or has an immigrant visa petiion was ever filed on your behalf?"
The law finds an immigrant petion only when one applies via I130 (family based immigrant petition" or I140 (employment based immigrant petition). Only filing of IMMIGRANT PETITION would constituate a violation of one's non-immigrant intent and status.
I went for consular approval last year. At that time I had applied for LC. The form had the question Have you ever filed an immigrant visa petion, or has an immigrant visa petiion was ever filed on your behalf? My attorney told me to say No.
USCIS has F1 file. Why did they not reject I-140?
