as for Mohits qn. i agree with pragirs' answer.

during AC21, if new job description is similar to orig LC thing, and if the new cmpany can put that on paper in offer or empl letter, this shud be enuf... a colleague of mine, who was a developer had his LC as a programmer, after 485 apply/180days/Ead etc, he lost his client and my company waited for 3 weeks & laid him off...he used ac21 and joined a small company, who gave him a QA job, but on paper it was put exactly as what orig LC said. in the july flood, he got his GC, no qns asked.

as for difference in salary, i remember in one of the free teleconf calls done by a prominent attorney , he said if u move from one geographic loc to another, then diff in stds of living etc will allow for same job desc to have pretty diff salary ranges. but if u chg in same geography and have significantly diff salary, it may raise eyebrow...but again what significant means is Gray...

You can not do anything. You jsut need to call SSN office and find out the status, apart from that you can not do anything.

Thank you.

I very much like this idea. I can help you on this if you want. I may not be able to spend much time on it during the work hours but may try to squeeze out something in the evenings, weekends.

I was very curious when CIS/DOS made a comment yesterday that FIFO is very complex to follow. I understand that it has to be complex but on the other hand if we can help them in any ways that will be great.

Also, it will help if we can make this as a IV org level campaign and see if we can get some transparency out of USCIS/DOS as to how they are arriving at the cut off dates.

for wife and daughter. daughter is just 5 years old. Is it common?
My notices are still missing.......

For the sake of others who may search this forum in future, could you tell how you got it corrected? Thanks!

I went to a CPB defferred inspection site which was the one closest to where I live ,with my pasasport ,I-94 and my H1 petition . So the officer clearly saw it was an error and gave me a new I-94 .

I saw in four Jun filers approvals at TSC dated 11/24.

Good luck

You are so pessimistic..
At least you hope something is gonna happen after the elections..:):)

Immigration is not a popular topic at these times...
Guys watch this video.. Where is the promised transparency? imagine what could happen if this goes through...
US Government is going to access your PC.. up next? Are they going to scan through underwear?

Why is that so called independent and powerful US media mum on this issue?

No LUD Update for my case after FP. but, LUD does not matter. Read LogicLife's post, you will get peace of mind.

:)

There is very little time & lots to achieve.
Calling all Washingtonians & Oregonians....

. As you said we can take off the contribution from our gross for tax purpose
That was for Indian residents, don't think IRS recognizes PF, it wouldn't get tax benefit here. 8% FD after tax is still 5.5% annual interest.
Without a green card, we are still temporary workers, check with a tax consultant about worldwide income too.

You can extend H1B, if your labor was approved before I-94 expiry date. If it happens, do premium for I-140 (15 days), with approved I-140, you can extend upto 3 years.

I forgot to mention that I also have a valid h1b visa. I don't intend to use my EAD. So in that case if I go back to f1, what will happen to my PD and 485 application?
or is it better to fall back on EAD and continue with education? Please advice!
Optimist578 - can you please let us know what you find out from your attorney?
thanks a lotsxk

I am also searching for directions to the university. But I don't think EAD would allow you to move to full-time student status. EAD is Employment Authorization Document and can be used only for employment, as far as I know. I will check with my lawyer too.

My lawyer had the following lines on this issue:

However, on a positive note, you are eligible for a special benefit for persons born in India subject to immigrant visa retrogression issues. Since you have an approved I-140 visa petition, you will qualify for a 3-year extension of H-1B visa status, with subsequent extensions possible.

It appears that the 3 year extension may not applicable to all countries. If you are not from India, you may like to check. If you check, please post the results for other persons. Thanks.
:)
whats your lawfirm's name..
Your lawyer explains retrogression problems so nicely to his clients ,that clients feel previleged to be from retrogressed countries... and the long wait times is no big deal. Anyways lawyers will make money from periodic H1B extensions and GC fees

I'd say you captured the action just fine. All that bird tracking was probably good practice for this.

Thanks for the reply. So we don't need to disclose to employer that we are on EAD.

AND
Also can employer discrimnate EAD, for ex: they won't hire people on EAD, can they do that legally?

EB2 or EB3?

is appreciated at IV. This is in addition to any other contributions (either time or money) to IV. :)

I meant "Recurring monthly Contribution" :)

Let us setup a recurring contribution funding drive -

Needhelp / janilsal - can you guys set one up, I will keep bumping with my pledges as usual.
