The OP (MORON) is a fake. He is promoting some Taliban type groups. India will not take any one without passport or embassy out passes. If he went to India without these, he will be in JAIL. If something wrong, USA will not send out any one.

Also, when applying for AP (form I-131), you have choose, if the AP is for one trip or multiple trips. Most lawyers choose multiple.
How do you know AP is approved for multiple entries?
I thought AP in general is for multiple entries.
Is there a way to tell from your approval notice it your AP was approved for multiple times?
Thank you.

Yes, she is the primary applicant. I called the attorney this evening and he suggested H1 tranfer. I have seen people saying USCIS is rejecting H1-B transfers if the applicant already got EAD. I have to see how far that is true.
is she the primary applicant on AOS? If so, to be safe, you may have her continue on H1 (provided employer is willing to file for H1B ac21 aka "transfer").
If she is not prim. applicant and If the employer is not willing to shed the H1 "transfer" money, you may save money by using EAD.
just my thoughts, check with attorney please.

Guys, Tell me something�If in 2009 total 2K people applied for 485 and the trend continues in 2010, don�t you think that all of EB3 will get their
GC�s in next 2 years??
There are total 75K pending EB2 including India, China. Assuming in 2009 there will be 20K GC�s filed, it still leaves 45-50K visas for EB3 for 2009-10.
Then next year onwards there should be sufficient visas to remove remaining backlog of 100K EB3.
What do you guys think?

Thank you so much for all your advice. I will let them know immediately. However, I have one more question. Is it better to apply the visa from a computer in Indonesia compare to I help them apply from my computer in the US or it really doesn't matter? I'm not sure if the embassy tracks IP address or probably has something against it. Just a thought because we're very careful not to mess it up.

I just put together this info and also posted on another thread. PLease, please go through this and start setting up appointment with your lawmakers.
We have already set up/met with Reichert, Murray and McDermott. Pls help in setting up appointments with the others. You may have to leave a couple of voicemails before they get back to you: refer 1st para of the letter below.(total 30 secs/per voicemail ). Remember, they are very open to listeneing to you...you are teh future vote bank :)

Dear Congressman XXXX,
I am a concerned constituent writing to you on behalf of ImmigrationVoice, a non profit organization working to get the problems of Employment based Legal Immigration to the attention of lawmakers. I would like to request for a meeting to discuss the problems that the legal high skilled immigrant community is facing.
Employment Based Legal immigration is currently facing some of the worst waiting periods in the recent past. Applicants have to wait to finish their final phase of immigration for as many as 6-7 years because of the lack of employment based green card numbers which is also called Green Card Retrogression. The reasons for these are certain bureaucratic delays, flawed practices and procedures and arcane laws which are not in tune with reality at all.
Please also note that there are more than 350,000 Labor applications pending at the Labor department to be processed. Some of them are as old as from year 2000. These applicants are waiting for certification from the US Department of Labor as high-skilled workers who are not displacing existing American workers in the market.
Subsequent to rigorous but unfruitful recruitment efforts by our employers and other processing stages by USCIS, we still have to face prolonged wait times. It is also to be noted that most of us are already working in the U.S. for the past 5-6 years and are contributing to the U.S. economy in the form of taxes etc - some of which we do not derive any benefit from. This also hurts the businesses in your constituency like my employer because they have to wait indefinitely to hire talented applicants on a permanent basis. This is a very important issue and will determine whether the United States of America remains competitive in the fields of science and technology and retains the best talent from around the world.
ImmigrationVoice is a nonprofit organization comprised of volunteers who are suffering due to these delays and wish to bring this important issue in front of their lawmakers. Hence I would request an appointment so that I can explain these problems and ask for support for some of the legislative measures that have been introduced to alleviate these problems.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Thank you.
Sincerely,

Hi Logiclife
The 2004-2005 more usuage of EB visas for Indians is done because those were approved through AC21's unused visas i believe between 1999-2000 which are quota independent and not just from the annual quota of 140K. Hence in 2004-2005 there were more usuage. Starting from 2006 only thing left is the annual quota of 140K with per country quota of 7% at the max which has to be split among several EB categories in some proportions (roughly 1/3 among EB1, EB2, Eb3).The spillovers within 7% alone can be redistributed within a country's EB quota in the final quarter of the year. Hence the max India can get is 7% no matter how much gets spilled over from the rest of the world. THe only way to get the spillover back into the picture is another law enactment everytime it happens to get it back which is slow and painful process. Hence in nutshell to remove retrogression the easiest way is to remove country cap is or increase it . Else it is always going to stay even if annual quota is increased or through anyother measures. Hence I would recommend positively IV to focus on doing it and not mere increasing the quota.

I did try to get into it so that i can start an effort to file a lawsuit but it seems after spending couple of hundread dollars to talk to lawyers I came across that federal courts have no power to do anything against USCIS if it is ineffeciency due to beurocracy delays.
So Technically you can file a lawsuit even as an individual but then Federal Court wont be able to held USCIS accountable as USCIS will give excuse as beurocracy delays and lack of resources and that lands on Congress so Federal court will have to get Congress involved.
Very Sad ... but its true ... this is a clean example how unfair this country is and it still preaches other countries on this planet about liberty, justice blah blah ...
its not illegal to port. Labor substitution was legal until they abolished.
EB3 to EB2 to EB1, is perfectly legal and is not like labor substitution. Why are you ppl jealous, just because you have EB2. A lot of ppl including myself had our cases filed in EB3, because of incompetent attorney's. Its not like someone is jumping the line, these guys have been waiting patiently in there EB3 queue and if they can upgrade why not?
Pls focus on the real issue of the country based quota. Really, this is not going to benefit anyone!

Buddy,
Are you trying to create a problem or solve one? If I were from Sri Lanka, why would I send my wife to India? If we start following your advice, soon many husbands would be leading a single life for being laid off.

Is the PD for AOS same than Consular Processing??
I'm asking because is supposed that they assign visas per country or not assign but is a limit of maximum 7% (I believe) of the visas per country.
So, if a person in EB3 with PD of July 2005 ROW (Rest of the World) applied for AOS in June 2007 and the USCIS approved the Green Card, why is that?
The PD is not current for EB3 ROW so, why the approved?
Is because the unused visas of the country was not completely used for consular processing and then the USCIS is using those visas for the same country but for AOS?
I don't understand why applications that are not current are getting GC approvals?
Thanks.

Well you are correct I am trying to draw attention because as a saying "you will only know the pain when you walk the line". My company attorneys delayed the filings. I am not blaming anyone but myself. However, the fact of the matter is to find out a way to address this issue which is going to help everyone else. I do not knonw how long my particular case might take but since I am in the process I understood the issue.
First, when you apply in advance, yeah the possibility of approval before existing application expiration is very high. But you will end up loosing the EAD period from the date of approval to the date of last expiration. This is a loss for us.
Second, a renewal should only take less time as it takes for Drivers license. It is not AP where they have to validate your last entry etc etc.
EAD renewal adjudication should be separate from rest of all application processing and should shrink the timline.
Imagine my case. My wife was searching for jobs since her first EAD and now she got one but lack of EAD is going to cause her to loose it.....

Which Consulate you went for renewal?
It looks like case of establishing Employee - employer relationship and RFE is requested for the same.
You work for comp A which has contract with Comp B and Comp B makes you work for Comp C.
You need contract between Comp B and Comp C as well.
Search for Employer Employee memo, which was issued in Jan 2010 y USICS, that should clear the picture for you.
Note: I am not a professional, these comments are FYI only, pls seek professional advice for details.

Hi- When I started off with the green card process, I had not idea about what most of the things meant. I joined a very reputable Fortune 500 company in 2006 (the same year I came to the US on a H1B), and started my GC process in 2007. The company offered me an pre-approved labor with a 2006 PD, which had a matching requirement w.r.t job description and salary.
During July 2007, i filed for my I-140 and I-485. Subsequently, my I-140 got approved without any issues. Now, given that my priority date is close to being current (2/14/2006), I'm afraid if using a pre-approved labor will have any role to play with my I-485 approval.
And no, I'm not working for a consultant. And I have been with the same employer since 2006.
Please don't start off with the jumping the queue argument. When I used the labor substitution, it was perfectly legal, and didn't even know what a priority date is :-)
Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to get you expert's opinion, before I pull the final string. My GC had been filed in EB2 with PD on Feb 26 2007. My 140 has been approved on April 2008. My 485 was filed during 2007 fiasco. I work for one of the big 3car company in Detroit as a consultant and situation is changing fast here, compelling me to search shelter somewhere else.
Luckily I got an offer from a new employer which is enticing me two pull the trick of Ac21. But before I do so, I would like to get your kind advise on the following points.
a) My Job title is programmer Analyst with my current employer but in the offer letter of the future employer is is given as "Sr. java developer". Does this title change matters? The new employer has agreed to give me the Ac21 letter with same job duty description.
b) The salary increase in the job is almost 50%. Do you think this causes any red flag.
c) The company size of the new employer is much small than the current employer. Is this OK.
I am really depending on you people's expertise. Any help will really make me confident about this change.
Regards
