I am not sure about this. May be you can call them and confirm so that any potential delay can be avoided.
Does that mean I am screwed? My package got delivered this AM at Mesquite, TX as per the tracking receipt.
Will Texas forward my application to vermont or do I need to send the package seperately to Vermont?
Thanks much!

You are a citizen of one of the countries listed below, and the worker on whose record your benefits are based lived in the U.S. for at least 10 years or earned at least 40 credits under the U.S. Social Security system.
Thats the confusing part
This seems to indicate someone else will get benefit payments but not the worker himself / herself.
This part refers to family benefits, i.e. payments to spouse based on your SS contributions.
Question: Why Canada is not in the list of countries?

We are in exact same scenario, but was thinking that H4 holder has to enter using AP to continue to use EAD after "vacation" . So is it like, Use H4 for travel and EAD to work, instead of , Use AP for travel and EAD to work? This will be of great help to many people who are scared to use AP or not want to face the extra half hour at immigration counters.
Exactly, that's the reason I posted my questions. I am content to know that my questions have answered many concerns of others.

What does it mean????
Did they pre-approve and assigned visa number to certain application as on July 1 and going to send approval notice later???? If they haven't approved cases and assign visa number before July 2, how come they process and approve pending application after July 2?????
This is terrible mess!!!!
Then, on July 2, the State Department issued an "update" that reversed the previous bulletin. It stated, effective immediately, there would be no further authorizations for employment-based cases. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which processes the applications, said it would instead simply process existing applications to meet this year's quota. "We already had sufficient applications pending without new applicants...," a spokesman said.
Mike Aytes, head of domestic operations for the USCIS, said all 147,141 employment-based green cards have now been issued for the year.
Reversal Frustrates
Green-Card Applicants
By MIRIAM JORDAN
July 5, 2007; Page A2
The government's surprise offer, then abrupt reversal, of an opportunity for thousands of skilled foreign workers to obtain permanent residency in the U.S. highlights the problems of the overtaxed immigration system and the frenzy that results from a chance to apply for a green card.
The scramble has put tens of thousands of workers and their families in limbo after many of them and their employers spent thousands of dollars in hopes of securing permanent residency. It may result in a class-action lawsuit against the government by frustrated applicants.
The problem began on June 12 when the government seemed to open the door for thousands of foreign workers and their families to end the long wait to apply for a green card. That is when the State Department published a Visa Bulletin, which is a monthly notice closely watched by immigration attorneys and their clients because it determines who is eligible to file a green-card application the next month. The June bulletin announced that practically all skilled foreign workers who had been previously deemed eligible for an employer-sponsored visa could now take the final step of applying for a green card.
By law, the U.S. can issue about 140,000 employment-based green cards each year. Last year, the government fell short by about 10,000, despite the long waiting list; leftover visas cannot be rolled over to the next year. The June announcement aimed to prevent the visa slot from going to waste, according to a State Department spokeswoman.
[Green-Card Limbo]
The announcement was greeted with a mix of jubilation and panic by thousands of engineers, lab scientists and other high-skilled foreigners who had waited years for their place in line. Working ahead of a July 2 date for filing the application, intending immigrants rushed to gather documents, complete paperwork and obtain medical exams. Many of their dependents boarded planes for the U.S. to meet a requirement that all family members be present at the time of filing.
"The bulletin created a land rush among legal immigrants desperate to finalize their green-card applications," said Steve Miller, a Seattle-based immigration attorney.
Then, on July 2, the State Department issued an "update" that reversed the previous bulletin. It stated, effective immediately, there would be no further authorizations for employment-based cases.

Any idea of how many number of I-140s ? May be 50000+. It looks like it might take at least an year to process these I-140s in NSC/TSC. TSC is faster when compared to NSC, where the priority dates has not been moving, at least for EB1/EB3. What do you say ?
A trivial question: Do they process I-140s based on labor filed date (priority) or I-140 filed date ?
Hopefully they will reinstate PPS for I-140 after they are done with receipting the July/Aug applications.
Good luck to everyone.

I-140 is processed a per RD (I-140 filing date).

--That ought to suck every bit of sanity left! I know "should have..would have..." doesn't matter anymore but I am curious why you did not opt to do labor substitution in june-july period. You should have had a crack at it.
I know people on h1 with consulting companies did better than those who got stuck with one permanent job.Stale career , stale pay and so on...
Do your best and make most of h1b.
Switched from one FTE to another FTE where I was probably the only H1B FTE working with a bunch of contractors and company would not file labor until first appraisal was done i.e. 3 months. By the time the slow-arse attorney completed the PERM requirements it was already September end. It's just frickin crazy,I know, stupidity on my part too in changing jobs. But opportunity knocks on the door once and was not unfortunately in sync with the idiosyncrasies of CIS and DOS. Hindsight is always 20/20 and no point whining. But having to constantly look at the lucky guys makes me say "Kick the H1Bs out; they took my greencard" :D

No objections to AAPI especially when my spouse is a doctor and we are indian... But ethnic diversity in IV is not "good to have", But is must.
In my view It will be easy to achieve goals set by IV with broadbased
support from various ethnic groups.
PS : I am happy it doesn't turn out to be "pie fight" uptill now, But It is always advisable to be cautious.
True - ever heard of the saying 'you can lead a horse to the water, but you cannot force it to drink'!
You cannot rent volunteers either!
Keep trying to encourage more 'other people' to join! But I hope you are not trying to get diversity for diversity's sake - by excluding people who are of same origin as you!

My priority date is June 2006.
I was with consulting company till 06/2009 after which I joined the client (fortune 10) company as full time employee. I'm on EB3 category using my EAD.
When I was with consulting company before I left they filed for my EB2 labor which is now approved.
Here is my DILEMMA.
OPTION#1) I can join my previous employer. i.e. the consulting company for interfiling between EB3 and EB2 so in which case if I go for premium I140 processing I will be on EB2 within a month or so.
BUT I'll have to leave my current full time employment which is with a fortune 10 company and good pay, I'm not comfortable to leave this position AND I do NOT want to loose the opportunity of getting my GC as soon as possible as EB2 dates are so close to my priority date.
OPTION#2) Discard the approved EB2 labor that my previous employer (consulting company) have for me and ask my current employer (fortune 10)company start my EB2 PERM labor and premium I140 and then interfile. IN THIS CASE, it might take about an year for me to get on to EB2 category BUT by then I'll miss the EB2 train if the dates become current before I get on to EB2 category....
------------------
Please provide your advice/inputs on what options I have, Do you know any other options than above specified.
Has anyone gone through this situation and how did you handle?
Any other feasible ideas that help me keep my full time position with fortune 10 company and as well get my GC on EB2 category.
-------------
Forum members helped me in the past with valuable inputs so I counting on your inputs. Please spare few minutes and help me with your inputs/advice.
I appreciate your help and time.
PS: I have 10 yrs IT experience with Master degree from US univ.

I think this rule would be pretty controversial with the diversity restrictions that US expects.
So, why there is country limit just on GC quota, if they want diversity it should be on H1/L1 visas as well...this is why we are seeing backlog of more then 5yrs in GC. It is not diversity they want it is called discrimination :eek:

Employees should be particularly wary of having their adjustment applications handled by the employer�s attorneys. If there is a dispute between the employer and employee, as when the employee terminates employment and moves on, there is an inherent conflict of interest. The attorney may continue to represent both side, but only if the conflict is disclosed and explained, and both sides explicitly consent to waive the conflict.
Similarly, the employer�s attorney must provide the employee with complete copies of everything filed in connection with the employee�s application for adjustment of status. This application is personal to the employee and has nothing to do with the employer. If the employer�s attorney files the employee�s adjustment application, he or she is acting on behalf of the employee and owes the employee a fiduciary duty of loyalty. If the CIS issues a request for evidence (RFE) or notice of intent to deny (NOID), the attorney must act in the best interests of the employee if he or she undertakes to respond.
Unfortunately, many employer attorneys see their first loyalty to the employer and not to the employee. If you are uncomfortable having your employer�s attorney represent you, you have the right to change lawyers and retain someone on your own.

One of my friend got EAD 2 year back even though his priority date was not came. Ofcourse this was even b4 this mess created USCIS. He was still using his H1 till couple months back, he is afraid of USCIS may roll back his EAD since PD is not yet reached.
I do heared 11 people from Infxxxx company got EAD even though their PD was not current. They are saying by mistake send the package but they got EAD.
I do know personally that person on the 1st paragraph, on the 2nd paragraph I dont have any evidence.....
Just sharing this information to help this thread, hope there may be lot more cases got EAD without PD even before this mess they have created.:D
Sorry if I sound offensive man but with this kind of English you need serious help before you need EB category green card.

I never said school can force her to maintain F1. All I said was if she wants to be on F1 (for whatever reasons) she needs to comply with school's policies. Also her maintaining or not maintaining F1 is immaterial to her legal immigration status in the country (which is safe by the virtue of pending I-485) it is just that she will cease to be on F1 status (her current non-immigrant status, just obtaining EAD doesn't mean she has abandoned F1 status, she needs to use it)
Also, she will no longer be on any non-immigrant status when school cancels her F1, from that point on her status will solely be based on I-485 and its outcome.
The school policies does not determine whether someone can be on F1 status or not. Government has laid down the rules for F1 status. School cant say that one has to take so many credit hrs for that person to be on F1. The rule is that to maintain F1 status, one has to be a full time student with minimum 3 courses , thats 9 credit hrs, but the exception is the final semester where that student can have less then 9 credit hrs.
Plus since the F1 is not a dual intent visa type , when someone applies for 485 , the F1 status is forfitted. what you are mentioning about the previous non-immigrant visa status continues even after obtaining EAD and remain so until EAD is used only applies to the non-immigrant status like H1 , H4 , L1 etc which are dual intent visa types. For F1 your statement does not apply.
