The time and efforts put in by these core members is unknown to many of us; but as sensible and logical thinking persons can easily visualize that.
Their cause is great and we must all support. Each of us could face small and trifle matters, but don't blow it out. Be magnanimous.
Does anyone feel that IV core members are getting arrogant with their success?

You cross the border every day?
If your Attorney says it�s okay then probably you don�t have to worry.
However, your current Canadian address is not what you have in files on your I-485. Because, you can't give a foreign address.
So, I personally think you are beyond jeopardizing your pending I-485.
Good Luck!
Would request you to elaborate a bit.
Note that I am not using either my EAD or my AP. All I am using is H1-B and my Canadian Passport to enter and leave US. Most people on the Canadian US border to that.
Also, I commute to US everyday to work, which is less than an interval of 12 hours.
Your input is greatly appreciate. Thank you.

I am confused because I read that you have to declare any foreign accounts held.
This applies to US Citizens ...it may apply to you if you already have your green card...but i am not fully sure about this....and i am quite sure it does not apply if you are on a work visa

If they ask for police clearance .. you give it..
Unless it was a felony that requires certain jail-time or something it's not always counted against you.. remember .. purpose is not to exclude shop-lifters.. they got plenty of those in Canada but rather identify and filter out security hazards.. you might need in person interview.. but it should be alright.. I know even US immigration allows folks like that.. so can't imagine Canada being more stringent..
I guess, we will wait for any response on this front, fron the buffalo office..
How can I get my spouse added to the application now? so taht she can accompany me at landing?
I send emai lto bufalo office, they havent responded

There is no such thing as a cooperative employer in this economy. I will give you an example....
While I do agree with some points on how difficult it might be given the economic environment, we do not know OPs employer or OP himself to make a broad generalization. For all that we know, OP might have 10+ years of domain specific knowledge that might make him really valuable to his employer or he might be working for a desi consultant who is happily taking 60% of his biling rate making him very lucrative to his employer. That's why I used the word "cooperative" to refer to the type of employer.
While no doubt, getting PERM approved is difficult at this time, it's not impossible (I have a few close friends who got them approved recently in EB2 though they had to wait a long time for it) and giving it a shot is well worth it if things work out in OPs favor.
PS: And God knows why I got reds for my previous post. Funny!

Thanks for your help. I will try and see if they can issue a BC with my mother's name. I am not sure whether they can accomodate that in their fixed format, but its worth a try!
In your case, you have the birth certificate, so you don't need to submit the non-availability certificate. It is better you contact your municipal office and apply for your birth certificate with your mother's name included.

I am in similar situation. Originally applied to NSC, got Xfr'd to CSC. Now CSC after processing EAD/AP Xfr'd my I-485 back to NSC.
ANyone in similar situation has rcvd Finger printing notices? I assume Aug 17th filers at NSC are ahead of us?
Also, i received the EADs in mail, but haven't received the AP even though online status reads AP mailed a week back. Any idea how long it takes to get AP after it online status reads approved?
Please share any information.

The question is incorrect.
It should be, "How many of you have children that are non-US citizens?"
Reddog,
Smart.
It should be how many non-citizen children.
But you both missed one more applicant, the spouse.
The question should be,
Are you married and if so, how many children you have who are non-citizens. We do hope most of them should be unmarried:D.
Am I smart too..

Unemployment is everywhere, the worst is in california. It does not matter whether its IT or any job. Some of the employers layoff the most talented and hardworking person.
I was thinking is there anyway for those having canadian permanent would reside, search for any jobs till the recession is over and come back to US. In that case one can accumlate the time in canada.

If you have an approved I140 (does not matter which company whether former, curent or future employer), you can get a 3 year H1 extension. There is nothing your current employer can do. How ever, as the others suggested above, you should find you new job and transfer your H1 by using premium processing to be on the safe side. Also apply for new GC process which would allow you to port your priority date as long as your I140 is not revoked for froad/misrepresentation. There are certain rebates on this too.
If you are layed-off, there is nothing much to think. Just act quickly to get your 3 year extension and be optimistic.
thanks tom for the reply,
I have one more question what if i am applying for the 6th year extension ( have completed 5yrs already on H1B) can i still get 3yrs extension?
thanks

On one hand I would not use the word "arrogance", on the other, I would be careful when advising who can say what and where. The right of free speech is an essential right, right ? :-)
So, mutual respect and understanding is a must. We are all in the same boat, tired and frustrated, let's not fight internally and keep our strength for fighting our problems.

More H1-B workers in the labor pool and in GC Line ...so more outsourcing openings for Indian Companies ...:)
Adding more H1B is what every employer aspires. They don't want you to get GC soon enough so that you leave them for better prospects.
No one is going to raise the GC backlog issue. Is there a way by which the we can also ensure that companies also stress on reducing the backlogs in EB categories and re-capturing past immigrants visa as a interim relief as they lobbied for increasing H1-B caps

I never said school can force her to maintain F1. All I said was if she wants to be on F1 (for whatever reasons) she needs to comply with school's policies. Also her maintaining or not maintaining F1 is immaterial to her legal immigration status in the country (which is safe by the virtue of pending I-485) it is just that she will cease to be on F1 status (her current non-immigrant status, just obtaining EAD doesn't mean she has abandoned F1 status, she needs to use it)
Also, she will no longer be on any non-immigrant status when school cancels her F1, from that point on her status will solely be based on I-485 and its outcome.
The school policies does not determine whether someone can be on F1 status or not. Government has laid down the rules for F1 status. School cant say that one has to take so many credit hrs for that person to be on F1. The rule is that to maintain F1 status, one has to be a full time student with minimum 3 courses , thats 9 credit hrs, but the exception is the final semester where that student can have less then 9 credit hrs.
Plus since the F1 is not a dual intent visa type , when someone applies for 485 , the F1 status is forfitted. what you are mentioning about the previous non-immigrant visa status continues even after obtaining EAD and remain so until EAD is used only applies to the non-immigrant status like H1 , H4 , L1 etc which are dual intent visa types. For F1 your statement does not apply.

What do you want to know? I130 and I485 needs to be filed. Both Counselor Processing as well as AOS allowed.
This is current Priority Date
--- China ---- India
2A 01OCT03 01OCT03 For Spouse and Children
2B 01NOV99 01NOV99 For Unmarried children above 21
For EB based guys, my understanding is that this PD is same as Labor Certification PD which was used for GC - correct me if I am wrong.
Found this one on the internet... maybe someone can help to give more information about K-3 visa ...

We submitted our EAD application in June first week and we got our card this week, effective from last week of July for the next one year.
Our priority date is October 2006- EB2 and we are not current. So shouldnt we have been issued a 2 year EAD?
Also we gave our finger prints last year (July 2007 filer) but this time too both the EAD cards shows no FP available .
The EAD card of my spouse (he is the primary applicant says signature waived) I still have signature on my EAD card. Anyone else with the card that says signature waived. Previous card had his signature in there.
I heard that's the way it should be from Aug 1st... :confused:
Someone advise...

IV shoudl push for this legislation.
This is interesting, and if the DV system is taken out, it will help many in the eb category. This is good, hopefully it will come to a vote.
The only way to make sure it comes up for vote, is if we talk about its benefits and benefits of such other bills to our congressmen/women.

Irrespective of what Ron Gotcher or anyone says, the matter is left to the discretion of the adjudicating IO. One IO may be okay with even 50%-70% hike, while another may start frothing at the mouth for anything over 30%.
I remember the time of July VB fiasco so many members posted here that my hotshot attorney has told me DOS cannot retract the VB in the middle of the month. And guess what, they did it twice! Point of the matter is AC21 ( at least in theory) is decided based on the famous and widely read Aytes and Yates memos. And these guidelines give the IO the descretion to decide 'same or similar job', if there is a major difference in salary. In case IO decides to reject the case the applicant has to do MTR and/or appeal in the court.
It all boils down to one thing EAD + AC21 is not poor man's GC. It's just an illusion which is losing it's shine with each day. If you are worried about a hike now, have you considered the future. Will you continue to work with same level of salary 5-6 years from now?
We need to work to get the real thing fast.

Or take non stop flights from JFK/EWR for east coast ppl.
People travelling to India, especially from the West coast should fly via the Pacific. Asian airlines such as Thai, Cathay and Asiana all offer better fares, better service and faster transit times.Plus these countries are not trying to fleece people by requiring that they get a "Direct Airside Transit Visa". It happened with my family when they reached the airport to board their flight on Virgin , they were not allowed.I then bought tickets on Thai for the next day. To compound the pain, Virgin imposed a "No Show" fee on each ticket despite going to the airport. I think it would be best to avoid most European carriers, if for no other reason but they offer higher fares, terrible service, long transit times and last but not the least; the scam of the century(Airport Transit Visas). What do they think the passengers will try to do, jump off the walkway and make a run for it so they can settle illegally in U.K!I think the U.K govt is running out of ways to make money so they have found the most ridiculous way to make a few extra pounds from people foolish enough to travel on one of their carriers! DONT FLY VIA U.K. PERIOD!
