My priority date is EB3 (August 2005). Last week her status changed to following. The thing is I checked with my lawyer & my employer and both said that they never received any RFE or never responded anything for my wife to USCIS.

Are you kidding me with your posts? I can't decide whether to feel sorry for you or get angry with you. But I guess, I will move on since you obviously have issues to deal with...green card should be the least of your priorities!
My "bummer" post was specifically in response to WAIT_FOR_EVER_GC and whitecollarslave's posts about Masters in STEM. I read all the three bills and I stand by my statement that Masters in STEM are exempt ONLY from the H-1B cap; not the EB cap. (line 14 on page 2 of H.R. 5630 (http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=110_cong_bills&docid=f:h5630ih.txt.pdf).) It is only the PhDs who are exempt from the EB cap.
Before you start throwing "smart alecky" comments at others, please let me know where it explicitly says otherwise. Don't show me anything about PhDs; ONLY Masters and EB caps.
I (and probably others too) thought this was the STEM bill being reintroduced which deals with EB caps. But it is not, hence the disappointment.

Jayant
P.S.: I know you are going to be back to read this thread. So a lack of response from you will be sufficient for me to have proven my case. But an apology for casting aspersions wouldn't hurt......naah, just kidding! :-) You have a lot of growing up to do, so run along.
Typical response just to defend......green card might be least of my priorities....but may be its your only priority for you !!!!!

It does not matter if you work for fortune 500. There could still be fraud or suspecion. Read Indian IT cos face US visa fraud woes - Corporate News - livemint.com (http://www.livemint.com/2011/04/11164715/indian-it-cos-face-us-visa-fra.html)
There has been years if not decades of abuse of US visa by most IT consulting/services companies. Eventually it reached epidemic proportions and eventually we are seeing a massive crackdown.

No is the correct answer.. they are here as visitors (not residents - US tax returns are for US residents - tax return 101)
also they don't have SS# i presume, so how can you even think about adding them as dependents?
Good try though :)
IRS does not use the same terminology as USCIS. If you are working in the US on an H1B visa, you are a "US Resident Alien" according to IRS. Those who pass a "substantial presence" test in the US can be claimed as dependents if they do not have significant income in another country, and are not claimed as dependents by anyone else. IRS will take your tax dollars whether you have a SSN or not ;-) That's why they issue Individual Tax Identification Numbers. Dependent visa holders use the ITIN to uniquely identify themselves in tax filings.

I am not sure when the CIR will pass...its not on Nancy Pelosi aganda in forseeable future... and several people already mentioned that if it didnt pass by MAY07 then you are looking at Jan 09 to get immigration stuff to happen...
I think we need to work on an interm EB relief bill ...which is absolutely non contraversial and try to pass it....not worring about piggy backing the CIR...
Issues such as h1 increase or adding more numbers need not be in it...we can include things like EAD after I-140...spouse/childer not considered for EB quota...etc...
Unless we act desissively now...its going to be a long way to 2009..
Pani, ak27, eb3_nepa, GCBy3000 etc in this thread,
Thanks for your concern and enthusiasm to get something done. We do need people like you to help us out in achieving what we have all set out to achieve. All Pls. signup for state chapters to be able to work together with other IV members in your state. Each chapter can organize 'meet the lawmakers ' drive as outlined in my posts. Currently only few people have signed up to help with the grassroots efforts. Without active participation from members we willl be seeing the frustrating visa bulletins every month and debating about it on forums.

One of ways in which you can make the lawmakers realize the seriousness of the issue of EB relief is by telling them about it in person. They meet tons of other people every day and hear about many issues that are just as important to the others who meet them. So to convince them of the urgency, IMHO, we all must go to their offices and talk to them. That requires you to take some time off from your schedule. Many of us have already met lawmakers. Join your local chapter.

I do not know of the SanDiego breakers 10k. I will look it up in runners world. 10K's should be lot of fun. I will support you if you take the lead with this. I can get my workout buddies and my family to participate in these events with me. I was thinking of signing up for the SanDiego rock and roll half marathon in summer but it would be brutal to run 13.1 miles in SanDiego in May. I am going to be signing up for the Nike Women Half Marathon in SanFrancisco this year as well. Count me in to support with this event, getting people to participate, fundraising etc. Some of my friends are certified fitness trainers and they teach in fitness clubs around OC. We could use their help for sure.

EAD is like plate meals. GC is like full meals.:D
Full meals is not recommended by any doctor, plate meal is the best way to be healthy :)
So in other words GC will make you lazy and EAD keeps you working hard.

labor sub is not neccessarily always bad.
I have seen lot of folks who were stuck in a bad wait and only way could leave was to use labor sub.
Having said that, this case seems just bad situation..
Why couldn't he just check before he filed I140 if someone else has already used that labor?
It's easy to do...
Also why not just use I140 premium when it was allowed back then..
I am thinking someone got greedy and got conned while trying to con immigration system..
you play with fire .. sometimes fingers get burnt.. I feel pity for this guy but I got no love for him..
how do u check if a 485 isn't being filed based on I 140

Folks,
It is worth trying but from my experience over the last 3 years of contacting congressman's office....it really is not that important.....I have heard that the congressman needs to be influential et al...that's nonsense...the congressman never gets to read ur mail...it goes to an immigration person mostly a junior staff member and he does what lawyers do thru AILA to get info on the case...they can neither expedite a case nor get valuable information for you...

I had the exact same RFE. I'm on H1 since 1998, and you can imagine how many times I have left and entered USA. I have about 8 H1B extensions. Here's what I sent...
1). Cover Letter stating list of document to show evidence of law ful status in US.
2). I-94 card issued by CBP at the last port of entry.
3). ALL the H1B extension notices issued by USCIS. Its important that there are no gaps in dates on the extension/change of status notices.
4). passport copy containing all US visas and entry and exit stamps.
5). A document explaining the entry and exit dates matching the stamps in the passport.
6). Few pay stubs from the current H1B/green card employer that you are currently working.
7). Few W-2s for last few years.
Usually the I-94 that is on the extension of stay issued by USCIS is the same number thats issued by CBP at the Port of Entry. So, USCIS should be able to match the entry and exit information and extension of stay notices
I'm sure they know that one surrenders the white I-94 card when they leave US.
Hi ,
I received RFE on my I-131 application asking for all the I-94's that is being issued to me.
I had been in and out of US many times and there's lot if I-94's involved and I don't anything with me except the latest. What options do I have?... Also couple of times during my earlier trip (initial visits in US), the AIR Line didn't even take the I-94 from my Passport which ultimately I lost.
My Passport has all the entries indicating my Date in and Date out...
Gurus - What do you advise on my case...
Anybody's input are highly appreciated and I know we could somehow get the I-94 copies by requesting USCIS. (That is time consuming)... I have to respond in next five to ten days...
What options do I have?...
Thanks.

I have been owning for 7 years now. I bought the first one in 2000 and sold it in 2005 - though most of 2001 and 2002 were in recession, I still made 200% of what I invested. But do not see house as an investment. For me i want a place when I retire. If it appreciates its good.
I have my mortgage with penfed.org. They have the best rate available. They are slow though - do not expect them to close within 30 days.
Good luck.

Regulations
Please provide an update on the status of regulations regarding the following: AC21, CSPA, T regulations for adjustment of status, EB-5, and religious workers.
Response: The AC21 rule and the EB-5 Special Class rule are both undergoing revision and should be published in the near future.
I wonder what the AC21 rule revision is going to be?
good catch. Yeah that one is a bit scary. I believe they said somewhere that they were going to tighten the AC-21 requirements, and if they do so, then it will also apply retroactively (meaning if htey say salary cannot change by more than 10%, and someone invoked AC-21 to a new job with salary change of 30% that person could potentially be in trouble). I hope they dont do that (I myself have invoked AC-21 with >40% salary change!)

Do you have a better way of increasing contribution?
Anyways anyone can check people's contribution by looking through all the posts made by a user by clicking on "find all posts by user". It is possible but requires little bit of digging.
It does not do any good. In my opinion.

Yes. The malicious code did not download any virus or inject any virus in anyone's system. All it did was to redirect the user via a popup to a malicious website. Antivirus scanners pick this up as a virus alert, but it is not. It is more of an annoyance than a virus attack.
I honestly cannot vouch for the millions of hackers and script kiddies out there that this won't happen but use a good Anti-virus scanner especially if you have kids at home.
Winner,
Yes I am the lazy blog owner who hasn't updated the site in a while.

Don't know about the lazy part, but you do have good writing skills. Do you have a blog on IV site? If no, you may want to consider starting one.
I'll be a regular reader of your blog!

I applied for my EAD renewal during last week of Nov 2010, it took only 42 days to receive my renewed card. It got 2 years validity, validity starts from the next day of current EAD expiration date. Even though current card is valid for another 2 months, pleasantly surprised to receive the new card in USPS priority mail. Overall, job well done by USCIS as for as this EAD renewal in concerned.
My priority date is Jan 2007, not sure whether by extending it for 2 years USCIS is not expecting me to be current in the near future. Personally I am expecting to be current during this July - Sep time frame. Worst case at least it should be a touch and go scenario, fingers crossed.

Thomachan 72, if you have already submitted a non avialability birth certificate, if you submit a birth certificate then will the immigartion not question as to how do you have a birth certificate now.

I wonder the reasons for Switzerland to be #1. Its a small country with minimal immigration and not much resources. Key revenue might be from Tourism. They are not known for scientific work etc.
... Maybe swiss bank accounts are key to it ! ;)
One big plus for Switzerland: their universities and advancement in technology.
Both ETH and EPFL in switzerland are THE TOP institutes in Europe for advanced technical degrees. Also, in the past 3-4 years, they have undertaken a huge initiative to invite the creme de la creme from around the world to switzerland, and looks like that is also paying off. Every professor/scientist/PhD I know would gladly accept a chance to go there!
So, Im not surprised that they are number 1. They strategized.. and they got exactly where they were trying to get! Whereas here, they got stuck mixing up illegals and skilled people, addressing fencing issues instead of labor backlogs, etc etc...and lost sight of a bigger, more valuable goal.
cheers.
