Folks,
Here is the same old Cockney reply from TSC on inquiry for my wife's case through my area congressman:
TSC is currently processing I-485 visas based on filing date order. There are a large amount of cases that are being worked and your case will be worked in receipt date order. With the limited amount of visas that are currently available between now and September 30, 2009, there is no guarantee that your case can be completed before the end of FY2009. It is estimated, that in general, your case will be completed between 45 and 90 days.
Thank you for your inquiry and please do not hesitate to contact us again if you have further questions regarding this case.
Obviously that logic is bull crap, otherwise I also won't have been approved. We have the same receipt date and everything...........I guess there is so much we can do....

HLG has confirmed that the CIS is not returning I-485 Applications back to those who filed I-485 during the first week of July. This is leading many to speculate that the CIS may reverse course and re-re-amend the July Visa Bulletin; whether the Visa Bulletin actually reopens remains to be seen. HLG normally refrains from commenting on rumors, but we have talked to several Washington insiders and believe that this is seriously being considered.
What does this mean for foreign nationals who planned on filing I-485s in July 2007?
HLG recommends that all foreign nationals who planned on filing I-485s in June take two actions:
1. Have your medical appointments completed. Medical appointments can back up quite quickly. Therefore we urge people to complete their medicals.
2. Send in your documents to HLG. HLG�s I-485 Step By Step Guide has a list of documents that we need for all I-485 filing. HLG will not begin preparing the I-485 at this time, but we still recommend that you send us all of the items on the list.
HLG I-485 Step By Step Guide: http://www.hammondlawfirm.com/485step_by_step.htm
What does this mean for foreign nationals who planned on filing via Consular Processing?
We urge all foreign nationals to attend consular appointments. The Consulates are clearly issuing visa stamps to those with appointments.

Dude the person apparently not in good mental state. People do crazy things with they are in such situation. Who knows what went wrong. May be he felt that his family would suffer without him and incorrectly thought to take them with him. He seems to be caring father until this tragic event. Please stop pointing finger and pray that god be with the families who lost them.
As much as I am saddened by the tragic event and my prayers are with the family, I still can't digest the fact that he killed all the family members. Whatever was going thru his mind, he was a coward. There was no need to take others life. I don't want to judge here, but I can talk about committing suicide which is totally wrong. He had NO RIGHT, NO EXCUSE whatsoever to take others life. Period. And I stand by my statement.
May be he felt that his family would suffer without him and incorrectly thought to take them with him.
You think this is a legit reason to take others lives? My friend I totally disagree with you. NO REASON would be compelling enough to take once life.

Is it possible to file I-485 without I-693(Medical) ?
The reason I ask is that I cannot get a doctor's appointment in July. For some reason, if we are able to file in July, can I submit the 485 first and submit teh I-693 later.
Please advise
Where are you located?. East bay?

like the historic successful flower campaign, can some one come out with a great idea to bring CIS attention to this issue? 'Satyagrah'??? Gandhi style fasting??? ideas?
USCIS is already aware of this. They have been notified through AILA and our letters are also working. IV has also been pushing for more broader AC21 regulations for a few months now.
Our request from IV is to keep sending the letters. Please send letters in thousands - not like 50 to 60 letters.
Everyone must take initiative and push other members. It is a very importasnt campaign.
It is very much possible that a lot of you may be a victim of AC21 denials. It is your call.
Please take responsibility and everyone must come forward and bring others also into this campaign.

Wait a minute…. You guys have a problem if someone else is getting GC even though you guys very well know how much difficult it is to wait for the long process to finish. I am completely stunned to read some of the posts on the forum as these posts are always looking for parity with this or that group. Some posts say “why undocumented are getting GC after paying 10K as we have been paying taxes for years”, some posts simple whine as to why L-1 get to file in EB-1 etc etc. Is there an end to this unnecessary complaining and this urge to always looking for parity, sometimes with the privileged and sometimes with the under privileged? Some posts are always looking for “fairness” whatever "fairness" means to the individual situation, and then, blame the rest of the world around for delay with their green card process. I think we ought to grow-up and stop complaining about someone else getting their green card. We ought to stop complaining about all the wrong things that may be going on our lives and we should get serious about making phone calls and meeting with the lawmakers. I do not intent to start a flame war and my intent is not to offend anybody either, just trying to point out that we could be happier and effective if we stop whining and complaining. It would also help to create a more positive and constructive environment on the forums.
We got our EAD in the mail today - We are late June filers (29th June) and got our receipt numbers last week, - I have some q's-
-Can one get EAD without completing FInger printing? In the finger priniting colum on the EAD it says - not available, Would that matter?
-How does one activate his/her EAD?
-Have any other late june filers already got their EAD?
Thanks
Sheetal
yes one can get EAD without FP, first EAD will be like that for all
since EAD processing seems faster than RD, FP etc.
Please read other threads before posting a new one.

Gurus/Experts,
First of all, thanks for your time and any suggestions you can provide for me to handle my case.
Here are the details:
- I am employed with a mid-size consulting/services company.
- Perm approved in EB2 and I140 filed 11/2009. I have a BE degree and 9 yrs of progressive experience before perm filing.
- Earlier this month I received an RFE asking for '60 months of exp before labor filing in form of document from current or previous employer'
- All my EB2 qualifying experience is with previous employer(a top 10 Indian IT company) as labor was filed by my current employer the same month i joined them. I was with them for 5.5 yrs
Problem:
- I was on an onsite deputation from Indian company. Before leaving for US they make you sign a bond of approx $10k and the condition is for you to return back and resign. I know that as per US laws this is not enforceable but in India this very much stands true and if you wish to fight it out you need to go thru legal systems, may not be worth the time and energy dealing with a big corporation.
- Considering the heavy amount being asked i had decided not to close my case with them as there was no impact working here in US.
- Now I need an experience letter and they are taking there own time to process my case. I doubt I can get exp. letter from them before due date of my RFE.
Possible solutions based on my knowledge:
- Get a letter on previous company letterhead from some known manager. Contacted some managers but no one seems to willing to do this.
- Get affidavits from co-workers who worked with me during the time. Already have them and had submitted to company lawyer alongwith previous co. offer letter, yearly appraisal letters and last few pay stubs. Basically, everything to prove my 5.5 yrs of work exp. was provided with the only exception of an exp. letter from previous company on its letter head.
Has anyone of you came across this scenario? How did you handle this and what papers did you provide ? Please share your experience and suggestions.
Thanks again for your time.

Thanks Paskal, I fully understand now with the example of the Scarlett Letter. I need to get busy and get another waiver then. Maybe I wasnt very clear on my first post about my stauts. I had had only a first J1 from 2002 to 2005. I wanted to stay so I got a waiver that time, and I tried to get a H1B, but I couldnt get it due to expired documents that I could not get renew from my country so my H1B was denied. Now some years later I decide to come back and the only fast way to come was with another visa J1. So as you explained I need to get my case number and start my process all over again. ONce I get the waiver I will look for a new sponsor and star the H1B process all over again. I cant be very open about this because if my present sponsor realizes that I am doing waiver and everything else I may loose my J1 because I signed a contrat to work for them for 3 years and then go back home. I think it is very unfair, but that is how things work around here.
Thanks so much for your advice. Good luck to everyone in this same boat!

nobody complains about somebody getting green card getting in six months, infact I know somebody who got green card from india onmployment basis, the problem is people who have waited for 6 years or longer feels the pinch, because
they have followed the law just like the guy who got in 6 months , and they see no light at the end of the tunnel, and frustration to certain degree amounts to anger.
chilllllllll enjoy the system, this is how the system works, like it or not.
thanks
And venting frustration on the forums by posting messages will ease out the situation? Right? And there is no need to explain this �unfairness� to the lawmakers who are considering various solutions to fix/address all possible immigration related problems. Would cribbing alone about �unfairness� on this and other forums help bring fairness to the process?

NIW is tricky. As you have PhD, you can apply yourself (w/o sponser) in EB1 Researcher catagory, if you do that kind of job.
The only self-sponsoring category are: EB2-NIW and EB1-EA (Extra Ordinary). EB1-EA is harder but EB2-NIW is not easy either. NIW will have to argue why labor certification should be waived. Talk to a lawyer. You will have to show YOUR work not just the field you work in has merit and in national interest. And you bring unique abilities to the US. Your past achievements and not future potential counts more.

Based on what I heard(my experience too), if your attorney submits your I485 along with EAD and AP, you don't get a FP on the EAD card. When you apply for EAD online, then you will do a FP based on the FP notice that you will get later.
To activate EAD, you need to go to SSN office and apply for new SSN and once you get your new SSN, you are all set.
This is only my experience. For expert advice, always check with a qualified attorney
My wife will be on H1(currently on H4) october onwards...we received our EAD's yesterday. Can I still go and apply for SSN? I mean will that mean she is on EAD and H1 no longer valid?

I did not invoke AC21 because of the very same reason. My decision had influence of attorney advise.
Hello Gurus,
My I-140 was recently approved. 140-485 filed concurently in July 2007. I have a new job offer and plan to use AC21. However I am worried because the wages at new job would be significantly higher than the old job. There are two reasons for the big difference
1-Desi employer v/s corporate employer
2-Dallas v/s New York
Any comments from people who have faced similar situation will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

I had contact with pappu on how to best channel the funds from my contributors to IV. The way I finally did it was to have them contribute to IV directly. However, some of the contributors were hesitant to chip in $100 minimum. So, I collected money from them through paypal, check and then did a personal contribution to IV.
I wish IV could set up a Paypal etc. account for my event where folks could directly contribute.

I plan to send this to all Time Warner/CNN executives once I have enough signatures.
Dear pmb76,
I just signed it with one suggestion.

Is it possible to file I-485 without I-693(Medical) ?
The reason I ask is that I cannot get a doctor's appointment in July. For some reason, if we are able to file in July, can I submit the 485 first and submit teh I-693 later.
Please advise
Medical reports are part of initial evidence and without them the case could be rejected. I think the new guidelines give the officers power to reject the case instead of asking for RFE if initial evidence is missing..
