Hi Guys,
As you may recall, we have had several phone meetings with Ms. Susan Henner, attorney at law. She has explained many issues and helped many of our members for free. You can see her tomorrow at 11:30AM EST on Fox News. She will be talking about an interesting immigration case.
NO, this is not a joke.
Regards,
Glus

I think: We donot have a choice. We have to show up on the day and time given on FP notice. If we can't- we have to request uscis for re-scheduling.
Call the ASC office and usually in such circumstances.. they allow to come earlier... Lots of ASCs are open sat.. So that may be good for you... Call your local ASC...

Dear Friends,
I filed my I-485 in July 2007. My I-140 approved. I want to file my EAD now. I have the following questions.
1) can I e-file ?
2) how much is the filing fee for me ?
3) what are the forms to fill and documents to send ?
It would be helpful if you can point me to any thread with all these info.

USCIS - USCIS Issues Two Precedent Appeals Decisions (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=f8925403f0bcb210VgnVCM100000082ca60aRCR D&vgnextchannel=68439c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1 RCRD)
USCIS Issues Two Precedent Appeals Decisions
WASHINGTON�U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) today announced that it has issued two decisions from the USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) as binding precedent for the agency. These decisions will provide guidance to USCIS adjudicators and help deliver predictability to the public. AAO precedent decisions result from a collaboration between the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), which publishes the cases.
"The issuance of AAO precedent decisions honors USCIS�s commitment to the clear and consistent application of the immigration laws," said USCIS Director Alejandro Mayorkas. "We are grateful for the Justice Department�s partnership in our efforts to promote predictability in immigration-benefits cases." USCIS is committed to issuing further precedent decisions going forward, given their value to the agency and the public.
An AAO precedent decision is an immigration-appeals case that DHS, with the Attorney General�s concurrence, designates as establishing a rule for deciding future cases. Once published by DOJ, AAO precedent decisions bind all DHS personnel in the administration of the immigration laws. DOJ publishes the decisions in the bound volumes of the "Administrative Decisions Under Immigration and Nationality Laws of the United States" (I&N Dec.), which also contain the precedent decisions of the DOJ�s Board of Immigration Appeals.
The first decision affirms USCIS�s denial of an application to adjust status to permanent residence and holds that an employment-based petition must be "valid" initially if it is to "remain valid with respect to a new job." The second decision reverses USCIS�s denial of an application to preserve residence for naturalization purposes and clarifies the definition of employment by an "American firm or corporation."

I'm no lawyer, but based on my own experience filing EB-2 PERM, this sounds like it might get rejected in PERM - "alien does not meet job requirements" - since you don't have five years experience.
This should be re-worded as
PROJECT MANAGERS:
-Microsoft .Net OR JAVA Technology
-Masters Degree or equivalent (Bachelors + 5 years experience) required
Did the company run this ad by their lawyer already?

My birth certificate does not have my name on it. (in india it is OK to name the new born a few weeks after birth.) so it just says "baby boy" on it:)
Do i need an affidavit from my parents mentioning my name?
Yes you need affidavits from your parents ,it is a common practise in India where the baby is named by the aunt in a naming ceremony

People are destroying this country by converting the illegal�s into legal�s. All these illegal�s and whoever is supporting them should be deported. If you want to live in US, follow the rules, if you want to break rules, live somewhere else.

EAD renewal question
Hi
When renewing EAD paper filing not E-file, I had written the check in favor of USCIS instead of "U.S.Department of Homeland security" , do you think there would be a issue for them to accept the cheque?

Deepadandamudi,
Because you are not currently invalid non-immigrant status, you are not entitled to a change of status to H-1. But, once an H-1 petition is approved on your behalf, you can leave the US, obtain an H-1 visa stamp in your passport and then return to the US using that visa. Unless your employer is exempt from the H-1 cap, the earliest you could do this would be Oct. 2010.
As long as you remain legally married you are entitled to the EAD, and you can maintain both documents. However, if you work for another employer using your EAD you will violate your H-1 status.

The backlog is so huge that there is no "light" at the end of the tunnel
FB immigration is capped at 480K and EB immigration at 140K. Both are backlogged.. the ratio of cases is also perhaps 3:1 or 4:1, so the bulk of those pendng 485s are likely to be family based. the EB I-485 cases are probably somewhere around 250k of that 750k...
Also, what is a backlogged case? USCIS has been changing the definition as they see fit. At one point cases that were pending FBI namecheck were not counted in backlogs!

I went back and forth with the school for 2 months and finally got the aid. Note : school aid authorities have no clue what EAD or 485 means. You have to show all the papers and prove that you are eligible. Are you technically a parolee as well ? If yes , then you are eligible.

Friends,
I am currently working at a systems company based on my EAD (H1 has expired). PD is Jun 2006.
I intend to marry a woman who is currently on F1 visa. I would like to know if there are any pitfalls from immigration point of view.
Renewing her F-1 visa stamp could be an issue as F-1 requires non-immigration intent (it is very difficult to make a case that she does not want to immigrate to US when her husband is in US on the green card route).
I understand that she can get an EAD only when my PD becomes current.
Can she file her I-485 petition based on my approved I-140?
Yes, that's how a spouse would submit I-485 petition.
If yes, would she continue in F1 status (or what will her status be?).
Her F-1 status will no longer be valid; she will be in the so-called "AOS".
Any other potential pitfalls in this particular scenario?
Any pointers would be useful.
Thanks in advance.

I don't think you read his question- He/She wanted to know if the FP can be done in an American Consulate General in India if he gets his FP notice while he/she is in India.
Does anyone know of this situation and if any consulate in India can do the FP?
If you get your FP notice while in the US go to the ceter any day at 7.45 am before the center opens and request the staff to do the FP.They generaly oblige.I did it in Los Angeles.

Thanks for the quick response.
Isn't the GC process independent of what you do now. It is petition for future employment. That is, at the time of adjudication, the employer should still be willing to offer the same position to me or the current employer should provide a letter indicating the responsibilites in the current job are the same as in the original petition.
If I take another job on H-1B, how does the AC21 rule come into play when I am not on EAD?
Also, if there any rule that you have to stay in the current job responsibilities for 6 months after getting GC?
