Earlier today I got an email from USCIS that said
"Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: Card production ordered.
On June 29, 2008, we ordered production of your new card. Please allow 30 days for your card to be mailed to you. If we need something from you we will contact you. If you move before you receive the card, call customer service. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register."
Then by the evening my I-485 said
"Application Type: I485 , APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
Current Status: Notice mailed welcoming the new permanent resident.
On June 30, 2008, we mailed you a notice that we had registered this customer's new permanent resident status. Please follow any instructions on the notice. Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later. If you move before you get your new card call customer service. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. Just follow the link below to register."
Problem My EB2 PD is not current, is this a system glitch or did I get GC?

If you read the postings in this thread itself you would be surprised to see that some consider this as controversial. You are not writing your life off just because you married a H1B visa holder. It also happens that majority of H4 holdes are woman and hence unable to express their views. - a perfect case of lack of visibility.

I have made similar post on another thread on IV--so this is a repeat:
The key is revocation vs. substitution. Per discussions with immi attorneys, AC21 portability is not explicit on what needs to be done if I140 is substituted by previous employer and NOT REVOKED, and the applicant is eligible for changing jobs (same desc and 180 days pending). The fact is that this loophole leads to illogical scenario--2 applicants taking benefit from same I140.
Question to you and other forum members: Is there a thread on this specific topic?
My situation:
I485 denied on Oct 24th 2008. I did not get the letter and realized only when I checked on the USCIS website. My attorney also did not get the letter of denial or even the NOID.
I changed jobs in June 2006 by invoking AC21 (Priority Date - Oct 2002, I140 and I485 filed concurrently, I140 approved in Feb 2005).
The fact is that on all forums there is talk about revocation by previous employer. However please note that approved I140 could either be revoked or substituted. While those AC21 memos talk about revoked I140, the law is not clear when previous employer substitutes the approved I140. I know the substitution process is no longer legal since June 2007, however, it has been abused in the past. My questions to forum members:
1. Is any one in similar situation?
2. I have H1B only until June 2009 and EAD unitil Sep 2009, Can I work until then (Jun or Sept) assuming MTR is resolved in 2 months (per some optimistic posts on IV). I am working on EAD.
3. If my employer were to file a new PERM labor application--can I port my previous priority date? How soon is PERM labor in EB2 category getting approved.

Can we all just "grow up" and get along ? I think only then we have "one voice"
sorry buddy, that's too much to ask from this group of educated illiterates, who talk of king and know that someone with the name chanakya existed in the past, but don't understand the concept of "growing up".
Every morning I get up, go to work, and logon to these forums every now and then. And everyday I see someone venting out at the only set of folks who are actually trying to do something about our issues. We know for fact that there is no other group who is working to fix green card backlog. But almost everyone who visits these forums never miss a chance to throw things at folks trying to do something.
If it was me, I would said - screw you educated illiterates because you don't deserve anything.
But hey, who am I to say this to the elites with highly blotted ego.
For few days I saw a thread asking this group to do something about the aged out kids of legal immigrants. I saw that thread for over a week and was tempted to support that initiative. And then, 3-4 days back, I saw a request for media interview from anyone who is facing "aged out" issue. And you know how may people showed up for the media interview, ZERO. There was not a soul on this forum willing to speak up for their own issues, but some of the folks in that thread wouldn't stop blaming others for not doing enough. How do I know all this, because I read those posts.
So in the end, we want someone to spoon feed us, do baby siting over us, while we continue to vomit and throw-up on that group of people every few hours. Yes, your question is legitimate - Can we all just "grow up"???? NO

There are many here (on IV forums) who question if Lobbying and Grassroots efforts really works. It they didn't, we wouldn't be here!
Read the following article on early Indian Immigrants and their miserable conditions before 1946. How they overcame the racist/xenophobic labor groups opposition through lobbying and grassroots efforts and became citizens.

The call campaign is still on. We need the congressman's support.
We need calls especially from members in the congressman's district in Texas.
We cannot stop until all EB immigrants are helped. EB3 is badly backlogged , and we shouldn't start celebrating yet for EB2 China and India yet from a single VB.
Please call. Especially from Texas.

To pbojja, your post shows how you may have completely misconstrued my post. I haven't written the post out of frustration of not being EB-1/2 at all. And am I dreaming when I hear you say that good English speaking skills aren't important in the U.S? Maybe I am in another world. I said clearly that the 'fraud' desi firms and their employees have tarnished India's image. They should be removed from the system and we should be in line with 'genuine' cases. What's wrong with that? Where's the unfairness here?
To snathan, I understand your post but I believe the tone should be more friendly and amiable. And I certainly didn't give you any red dots so peace on that front. I don't believe in petty playground politics. Actually I appreciate you reminding people about contributions since they are needed a lot for our efforts.
Also, I can see my profile turned red since people haven't understood the essence of my posts. Very sad situation indeed.
StuckinMuck,
Dont get into other things when high priority issues are to be focussed. Focus on removing country quotas, release the numbers lost, get GCs for 5-10 year waiting folks, get citizenships for anyonne more than 10 years legally in US, project yourself with good things. There can be 100s of bugs in the system, but this is not the time to cleanup.
Focus of projecting good things about us, which are PLENTY.

Management announced that our US plant of my division will shut down in next 3-4 years (about 2000 employees). There are no immediate lay-offs but may start anytime,as this is a progressive multi-year transfer to out of country or to a third party.
What is the impact on 485 processing?.
I got an RFE for employment verification a week before the announcement and it was replied. Will there be any issue at the approval stage or in the future?.
Thanks

Dear Dr. Teli (I am sure you are a Dr. because you dont let facts or reality come in the way of your diagnosis of a situation, argument or person, only a PhD can do that)
Thank you for doing the homework on my 1 year of postings..Not even my wife pays that much attention to me, makes me feel really valuable :)
I could have told you that. I have never contributed any money to IV and probably never will. Because i dont think they are doing anything. I have, however, answered a few people's questions about AP or H4 visa (something with which i had to spend a lot of time researching). That is the extent of my "contribution". I just answered a few earnest questions to the best of my ability.
You can attack me all you want. For example, probably I am not EB2..Hmm, I thought EB2 was an employment category and not a species classification but I may be wrong...
Anyway, what happens is that whenever a new visa bulletin rolls out, there are all these posts which basically say
1. Contribute
2. We must do something
3. What is IV core doing
4. Where is VDLRAO
5. When will the injustice end
etc etc etc
I have been seeing this for the last 3 years. First things first, If you want to take action, spend 41 cents every day and send a letter to your congressman or senator everyday for 1 year....For $149 per year (365 * 0.41 not counting leap years and counting on the fact that you will mail a letter even on holidays :))
At the end of the year, at least you have something to show for what you did. With IV, you can convince people that Patton Boggs is doing all they can for you, Trust them.
I am not blaming the Core at all, they are doing whateven they can given the limited resources, time and influence they have. But, what I am blaming, is the the "holier than thou" attitude which is adopted when distinguishing between those that are the exalted DONORS and those that aren't :)

Hi,
Here is our situation. I am on H1 and have 485 pending for me and my wife. Both of us also have a valid EAD.
My wife was on H1 too, however since Oct'08 she relinquished her H1 status and took up another job using her EAD. Currently, we are planning to have her AP filed (her earlier AP expired in Dec'08).
Given all this, I have following questions.
a). Are there any risks associated with filing AP.
b). I presume her status has been valid so far... reason I ask is that we didn't do anything special in terms of communicating any official agency, when she jumped the boat from H1 to EAD. Were we supposed to?
c). Do you think I can get her on H4 while she continues to work using her EAD. I guess H4 option is more expensive? Any thoughts?
Appreciate any help/pointers on this.
Thanks
No risk associated with filing AP at all
You did not have to inform any official agency but she should have filed an I9 form (i think thats the form) when she used EAD for work
You cannot be on H4 and EAD either or

You definitely raise an interesting case. What I would say to that is that they just have to reevaluate the points allocation system. the details of the point allocation system may be bad but the overall intent still stands to benefit the highly educated while including the EB system as well will make sure less skilled but in demand people are also taken care off. handling family based GC is a whole diff ball game though.
Overall intent of the bill was to legalize/give amnesty to 12 million people at any cost for dems. The intent of republicans was to gut the whole immigration system whether legal or illegal.
You say that they just have to reevaluate point system. How many amendments were filed to do that . If the intention of "masters of the universe" was to reform the system they would have approached the whole thing much carefully. The total bill was written by special interest groups on both sides of the political aisle.
I agree that a strong economy like america needs both skilled and unskilled people. Shouldn't it be left to the employer to find out who is the best person that can do the job.
The bill as it was written before the cloture vote was a piece of CXXX.
Once the bill is passed I dont think anyone wants to talk about immigration for another 20 years , I dont think I want to wait for another 20 years for law makers to make changes to the point system.
I am happy that this ill conceived bill is on life support system now. Hope they are not able to revive it ...
Foreign nurses wont help revive this baby because they dont get any points in the new BS system called MBS ....:D :D :D :D :D

One way is to invest regularly in 401 K. By that way you let your investments grow tax free and if you have to or go back to India then you can withdraw them next year, TAX free or less tax. Thus you actually pay less tax and ultimately you might pay lesser tax than your social security. Who cares if the social security is being taken from me.
I heard that if you are non resident of USA, the tax rate is 30% ( for Indian residents). Also I heard that you can collect SS if you have paid 10 years SS tax even if you don't have GC/ citizenship at the age of 60. But we don't know whether the SS will be there by that time when we turns 60!.:rolleyes: Don't know whether we will be there!. :eek:
The Dollar value may go upside down by that time:cool:

Hi,
This is one of my friends case: Please guide him....
"My wife's employer filed for her GC during 2007 August rush for all of us. Her case is in EB3 with Feb 2005 PD. My labor is approved and filed for I-140 about a year ago and still hasn't been approved. Now, my PD is current based on yesterday's Visa Bulletin. Can I file another I-485 for me with a pending I-485 thru my wife's employer?"
Thanks in advance....
yes, you can file a 485 based on your PD. But it will be processed only after your 140 is approved or while it is being processed.
OR, you can wait, and once your 140 is approved and provided your PD is still current, you can transfer your wife's 485 to yours making you the primary and the wife the dependent.
