He says that Eb2 India will retrogress to 2003 or 2004.
This is my opinion. TSC 485 processing time is July 17,2008. NSC 485 processing cut off date is July 28th, 2008. I don't know if CSC is still processing 485 EB applications but CSC EB processing cut off date on its website is April 04, 2006. The priority date for June 2007 bulletin was April 1st2004.
Lot of big law firms filed 485's around August 1st because the date for filing 485's was extended to August 17th. So I think these 485's are still unadjudicated. Once they get adjudicated there would be retrogression. Analysts analyze. However the silver lining would be removal of concurrent processing of I-140 and I-485 which may give some additional EB 2 numbers next year.
yes. there is a possibility of some retrogression for EB2 India/China in the comming bulletins. But that is just for few months and it might be a mild retrogression as long as there is horizontal fall outs of spill over visas.

I did not have a exit date on the passport. At the border they just took my Old I-94 and let me go. But when i came in I got the admit stampted. I hope its not a issue right?
US do not stamp your passport when you leave. That is why they take your I-94 and make an entry of the date that you leave.
You are OK.

You are OK.
What will be my status after i file my I485?
My current I-94 will expire on 16th Sep 2007 (on the day my current visa stamp in my passport expires and my current H1 B is set to expire Mid April 2008).
I am planning to make a trip to Cannda or someplace to get a new I-94 as soon as i get my new passport (i had sent it for renewal on june 2nd). But i am a little worried about my status if i am unable to make the trip.
So my question is what will be my status after 16th sep 2007 (once i file for I485 (first week of July2007) and my I-94 expires on 16th Sep 2007)?
Appreciate any responses ...
Your question is not clear but when you say I-94 I assume you mean the I-94 that you got the last time you entered the country, right? The expiration date on that has nothing to do with your status as long you have an approved I-797 for your H1B extension till April 2008. You are in status till that time.
But you do need an unexpired Visa stamp on your passport if you leave the country and want to come back to the US.
So the way I see it, even after filing 485 you will continue to be in status till April 2008 and then I am sure you will extend that for another term if your I-485 is still pending.
As for going to Canada to get a new I-94, it may not work because they do not make you surrender your old I-94 when you go to Canada and so therefore do not issue a new I94 when you return after a short trip to Canada.

Cool down dude, I can understand OPs frustrations, I am in same boat and see similar cases around, not that ead or ap is anything great, just that someone who applied before feels rejected seeing TSC giving out eads like cookies:)
When baby cries mom gives milk cup or some time slap. But they like each other. So nothing to cool down here. You need to face argument.
Even receipt is also not some thing great but for you question should be what is more critical at this time getting receipt or getting ead.
I guess every one can wait for EAD but every one need receipt first.

Ask your employer, what this agreement is supposed to mean for you? Are you working on hourly rate? If so I can see why employer wants this agreement. He wants to pass all the risks to you. If I were you, I would not sign anything like this.
Once in a history a mid vendor asked me to sign this type of agreement. I took it to my employer and my employer told him something,"I dont know what he told him" and the vendor came back to me and said, no need to sign it. MY employer said he had a frank conversation and that we are not his slaves.
So dont hesitate to bring up that with your employer, if push comes to shove.

Can someone check to see if this is still the case?

As per law, one must always carry the original GC with them, like DL. You can see this instruction in 485 approval notice/welcome letter. I am doing it.

Royus,
As per Murthy's announcement AILA finally managed to get the required number of Plaintiffs by 2:45 PM today after noon.
Still to be on the safe side shall we go ahead fill the PlainTiff form ??
what if the lawsuit is not given " CLASS ACTION " status and only Plaintiff's are benefited ?
Is there any potential advantage for AILA if they upgrade the status as CLASS ACTION - do they get any Money ??
Thanks
Its is always advisable to file the petition as AILA clearly stated that they are going to identify "class" of people. The court may or maynot give benefit for all classes .so better file and be in the "Best Class" where if AILA wins the case you will get benefited ,Dont be penny foolish as if you already spent money in getting other stuff ..what you are loosig in 1 grand for attorney fee , ( think of desi employers who gets 2 grands every month on you )
Also with todays's rumor some thing positive is in pipeline ..even july VB flip-flop also started as a rumor

I have similar situation - I applied for 140 in July 2006. My daughter will turn 21 in July 2007. As I have applied for 140 before she turns 21, she is safe for GC, but will loose H4 status when she turns 21. As per my lawyer's advice I have applied for her F1 so that she can stay and continue her studies in US. When I become eligible to apply for 485, she can be included in the application - but, not as a dependent of H1B holder.
Can you apply for AOS for your daughter with your 485 application after she moves from H4 to F1?

Its the courtesy of USCIS and highlighting of our problems by IV made USCIS to issue cards for 2 years... there is no requirement that it should be as such... in general any EAD unless its L* is generally issued for 1 year with exception of C09-employment category where they are issued in looking at Priority date [ofcourse there are other exceptions like asylum... etc] if they dont get biometrics from their repository at the time of printing , they waive some of the features like fingerprint, signature etc.
Thanks for the explanation, now I understand why my wife got only 1yr validity, where as I got 2yr. In reality my wife got only 11 months validity, as the from date started a month before we actually received it in the mail. It is a big pain and expense to renew every 11 months, if this is the case. Another gripe is that my validity started 2 months before the current one expired, effectively reducing the 2yr to 1yr and 10 months. It still better than 1yr, but I don't understand why they get simple things like this wrong.
It is funny that I used to wait until the last minute to renew my car registration when I first arrived in the US, thinking I would loose time, but when I learned that that is not the case, I started registering at my convenience. Since EAD renewal is not as simple, we tend to apply early, and that results in getting some time lost. How early do you normally apply?

There are reports that there are a huge backlog in medical examination appointments in certain areas. Currently, the USCIS requires the sealed medical report as the part of "initial evidence" for filing of I-485 applications. The attorneys here in Orlando asked the USCIS to change the current policy, allowing I-485 filers to file I-485 without the medical report. The USCIS took such request under advisement. Considering the fact that EB numbers could move backward again, such change of policy may be critically important for some filers.
Its not confirmed yet so please cautious .. In Virgina there are couple of Doctors entertaining walkins..Please check who are near by DC metro .I finished my stufff in the morning after waiting for 3 hours ..

This definitely gives an incentive for people to start contributing. This is like for the people, by the people. To be able to have an organization with direct access to the USCIS in helping resolve desperate situations. But for this to continue to be in existence with that kind of outreach, needs monetary contributions from all members who are in their GC journey regardless of how safe or straight forward their case may be.

Can anyone pls respond to my situation. Thanks...
Today I received RFE for my H1 Extension.
I received only one RFE which is obtaining contract documents from the chain .
Here is my situation.
I work for Client A for whom Company B does the project work. I was contracted through Company C who is the prime vendor for Company B.
Here is the chain.. My Company --> Company C --> Company B --> Client A.
RFE states that my company need to provide contract documents within the entire chain which is highly unlikely they can obtain.
Company B and Company C can only provide letters to affirm that that I work for Client A. Will this be enough or does it need to be only a Contract document?
Below are my questions
==================
1.) My company says that they have PO from Company C which provides details about the entire chain. Will this be enough to answer the RFE?
2.) Does withdrawing H1 extension cause any problems ? I can invoke EAD
3.)Also Company B is willing to take me fulltime, so essentially if I abaondon H1 extension and join Company B , will this help or cause any more problems?
Thanks and appreciate your response.

They are requesting contract from a specific client?
Then I would produce that.. As I mentioned in previous posts, I also attached other offers and contracts I had from before.
Also lawyer wrote 1 letter specifically addressing the work location and nature point, which had client name, contract, and info about job.
I don't remember seeing any specific time limit mentioned in that letter.
End client varification letter will help. In my case, we didn't attach it since it was too much hassle to get one.. but lawyer wanted to add it if we could get it..
We had total 4 client contracts with my name on it.
plus 10 other contracts for work without anyone's name on it.. since we do projects not staffing only we could do that..
Hi zCool,
I got RFE and summary of text is as below.
Asking for
1. Contract from the client in charlotte, nc
(but after applying h1b extn, i moved to CA)
2. W-2 for 2006,2007
I got #2.
for #1, we are planning to send old contract for charlotte,nc client and new contract in CA client.
Do we need to send end client 'project verification letter' or something like that ?.
Thanks a lot.
