Sorry to hear about your case. Immediately call your Congressman's/Senator's immigration wing. They will help you. If not, try to call attorneys like Rajiv Khanna or Sheila Murthy or Shutterman. They will charge you for the call, but you may get some valuable ideas.
Good luck. Hope it gets resolved soon.

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

I've gone through the pretty much same situation and had a hell of time
with it.
The best way in my opinion is:
1. Stamp H1B with latest approval from India(Home country) is the BEST way.
2. If you have the approval right now goto Mexico or Canada and stamp it.
3. Show the new approval letter to the POE and beg him to give the new data ( Mar 2007). ( Incase you dont stamp VISA).
4) Incase you dont want to stamp and at POE officer gave you Feb28, immediately after reaching here, do an amendment on you H1B saying
a slight change in job description. ( Like add one more thing in your responsibilites or whatever)
If he gives Mar 2007 on I-94 you are okay. If he give Feb 28 that would
create problems. I did not know it first time and found it after the date expired on the I-94. Murthy advised me to do an H1B amendment. So I had to spend about 3grands on this. Atty said technically I had some 2 months out of status stay. I travelled out after this incident. Nothing happened to
me on the way back. So I guess everything is okay.
I would recommend as clean as you could with these things, since doing business with USCIS is an ugly one.

So does that mean that if one's I-485 is rejected (Has no luck with MTR either) -
Then he cannot continue after his current H1-B expires (After 0 to 3 years)?
Going back to his home country is the only option?
That is correct unless you have other grounds for new H1b petition (highly unlikely at this point in one's stage) - Per Yates as well as Neufeld memo,
If at any time before or after the filing of the single (combined) extension request a final decision is made on the above-stated grounds, the beneficiary of the extension request will not be entitled to an extension beyond the time remaining on his or her 6-year maximum stay unless another basis for exceeding the maximum applies.

Don't need to get excited. Nothing has changed.. Its again depend on you if you want to file and get it rejected and then be a part of law suit or if you just want to wait till Oct. But so far all these are rumers. and good roumers never become true..
But nothing wrong with being hopeful.
IS THIS APPLICABLE ONLY TO JULY 2 FILERS? FOR OTHERS, IS IT ADVISABLE TO FILE I485 NOW?

Per my understanding from other posts here, Pelosi can't schedule floor hearings it is handled by the majority party leader, which is Senator Reid.
Pelosi sets the time-table in the House and Reid in the Senate. Since the bill was introduced in the House, I made the statement.
Hope this clarifies things.

I was just quoting that there may be legitimate reasons but this is not a good reason...
Sorry, but I have to disagree. I don't think there is such thing as "legitimate" reasons to take your own life. What is more legitimate that the other is something very subjective, and if you believe there even exist "legitimate" reasons, then you can always fall into the mistake of thinking that something minor, which you can easily overcome, is "legitimate" just because of your current state of mind and spirit.

I just sent out an email blast to all my H1b and GC Holder friends. See the text as below. Please feel free to re-use/edit as appropriate and send emails to all your friends (GC Holder or H1B's and F1's)....
Don't worry there is no copyright for this text :)

Friends:
<<If you already have your Green Card, please forward this email to those who are stuck in the GC retrogression mess. >>>
However, if you are like me and are stuck in USCIS retrogression, then you surely want to become a member of "Immigration Voice (IV)".
IV has a team who is lobbying for you and me. The Membership is free. Currently, we only have 5851 members in IV, while almost 300,000 people are stuck in the retrogression. IV needs to show a large member base to communicate their voice to the Senators and Congressmen. If you don't stand up for it, who will??
So if you want something to happen within the US legislation/Immigration policies in the near future, please join hands with IV.
Remember, there is Power in Unity!!!
So please become a member at http://www.immigrationvoice.org/ Time is flying, please don't delay!

I somhow feel that Name Check problem has not been taken care of within its entirety. I agree with one thing that NC will be "improved" but has not been and will never be streamlined the way actually it should be.
Reference:
http://blogs.ilw.com/gregsiskind/fil...Procedures.pdf
I may be wrong but my doubts are as under:
------------------------------------------
(1)180 days period is from the "Date of FBI Name Check initiation. It is not
from 485 receipt date. Nobody knows when USCIS will initiate FBI Name
Check. So I see a big playground for USCIS to play if it decides to play.
What if uSCIS sends FBI name check initiation after 2 years of 485 receipt?
Do we have a way to know or keep an eye on USCIS about this? At least I
do not know and if somebody has the information please share it.
(2) "If 485 Otherwise is processable" then USCIS can go ahead without
waiting for NC check... What if USCIS decides to keep 100000 cases on
rack eating dust just by not moving the processing date for particular
service center? This you can see right now.. USCIS is making Texas slow
day by day not moving processing date. I remember Texas was ahead
with comparison to Nebraska around May to August 2007. If this happens your case is no more "processable".. Yes you can say that you are not stuck in NC queue but you will be stuck. USCIS may come up with altogether different startegy... To align processing times with FBI processing and FBI NC initiation. That may screw the things further.
Expert or differed opinions please?
Though this can be the case but this is relief to those who have been stuck in NC for years ,so in that retrospect six months is far far better . I think many people can see the things to their interpretation , my take is that you never get everything right on the first time, u revisit and make changes and correct special situations that were not taken care of intially. It is a start atleast now we dont have poeple who are waiting in NC for years and asking about WOM.

My Friend your thoughts are very good.
The AC21 Letter that one sends after changing a job is not a gaurantee that it is attached to your file(I-485). how do you expect to explain all that you are saying to CIS when they can't do there own work properly.
I agree this is not easy, but in past IV CORE was successful when they convinced CIS to come out with revised visa bulletin in July 2007. Other successes include 2 year EAD and 29 months OPT etc. If we all support, this may also be possible. Atleast having an official procedure and forms for AC21 will be really good.
