As the title says, can I change from AOS to CP even though my PD is not current.
Will the consulate process my case even if the PD is not current ?
I guess, they should depending on the number of applications at the consulate.
Please let me know whether I should take this route.
Well my PD is Feb 2007 (EB2) so I was thinking of this route rather than wait for endless years in this mess :(
Thanks in Advance

Sorry , please ignore the phrase 'fiscal cap', actually it should be annual H1B cap for that particular year.

Hi,
My brother is in this situation, came on L1 in 2008 through company A (valid till june 2010) and got his H1B approved from company B. He went back to India before Oct 2008 and came to US in feb 2009 on L1 again. He now wants to use his H1B, can he do that and how?
Thanks!

Lots of activity to report. Congressional Hispanic Caucus leaders met this week with President Obama who said he wants a vote during the Lame Duck and would work the phones to round up votes. Harry Reid tweeted today that he'll offer the DREAM Act as a standalone bill which will hopefully help bring along a few of the "procedural" no voters from last September who indicated they like the DREAM Act but didn't believe in tacking it on to a budget bill. In the mean time, advocacy groups are apparently still arguing about the final language including answering whether college...

Visa, immigration laws have grown more complex | courierpostonline.com | Courier-Post (http://www.courierpostonline.com/article/20100928/NEWS05/100928046/Visa-immigration-laws-have-grown-more-complex)
"You're never going to have enough legal immigration slots for everybody who wants to come here," said Ira Mehlman, a spokesman for the Washington-based Federation for American Immigration Reform.
For the legal immigrants who do make it to this country, they are kept in waiting for years together with no sight of relief
The real troublemakers, said ALIPAC's Gheen, are employers who hire illegal immigrants, politicians who praise their contributions and authorities who make them feel welcome by, for example, offering forms and services in Spanish.
This never gets highlighted either by media or public. Many of these employers are big time contributors to the candidates - and candidates turned lawmakers offer their loyal protection! Unless, this changes, the problem cannot be really solved

My spouse is on H4 currently. Have applied for H1 in April 2007 and got the H1 aproved. So the new H1 starts on Oct 2007. However, we applied for 485 and got our EAD's (No recept number, No finger printing etc).
Can my spouse use EAD to start job? we dont want use that new H1 currently. What are the implications if we use EAD? Will the H1 (and my H1) be effected?
Search and you'll find your answer...
Using EAD will invalidate H1/H4 status...
You may file for H1 transfer later to revive your H1 status if needed...

I got my H1 approved in Oct 2004 and it was from Oct 2004 - Oct 2007. I used only 6 months of H1 and later went on TN (work visa for Canadian citizens) and remained in US working on TN for 4 years. I was in US all these years. Now even the earlier H1 approval duration is over, Can I apply for H1 with another employer using the old 2004 H1 quota cap or it has to be under new 2009 cap? Thanks in advance.

St. Jude Children's Hospital is known throughout the world for its groundbreaking research relating to childhood cancer. One of their stars is Australian-born Charles Mullighan who has gained attention for discovering what is described as "the missing piece" in the puzzle of genetic mutations that contribute to the onset of childhood leukemia. Mullighan recently described his work to the Memphis Business Journal: �The most common childhood cancer,� says Mullighan, �is ALL, a genetic disease.� He explains that ALL stops normal white blood cells, which constitute the body�s natural immune system, from growing; without adequate natural immunity, infections eventually overwhelm and...

Thank you. I checked it out. My nephew (7yrs) also plans to come for 3 weeks with my in laws. He has never been to the US before, and his parents are not coming either. The site mentioned that parents visa papers also have to be attached, I am not sure what this means. (His parents have never applied for the visa)
Your inputs are much appreciated. Thanks

We need to make a very important decision this weekend and any help will be highly appreciated.
My husband�s (EB3/India) employer is willing to give us a �Labor Substitution/I-140� (PD: March 2005). But, I really want to apply for COS H4 to F1.
So the two options we have is
1) Apply for both �Labor Substitution/I-140� and COS H4-F1
2) Apply for COS H4-F1 and let go of �LC Sub�.
I have spoken to a lawyer and he is saying that we can apply for both �LC Sub� and COS and that there is a very good chance that COS will also go through, although there is a very small risk. But, I am getting conflicting messages from other sources suggesting there is a high risk of COS being denied.
We are trying to determine the amount of risk we are taking if we apply for "LC Sub" and COS at the same time. If the risk is high, that we would just apply for COS H4-F1.
This is a really tough decision and any advice would be greatly appreciated.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$GOOD MORNING GC$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Deadline = April 30th, 2011
Goal = 5000 votes on survey (see I-485 filing w/o current PD thread) and momentum to continue with this campaign.The survey is a platform to gather and push for launching action items. Based on response by 04/30/2011 - IV will decide whether to even proceed with initiative or not.
Actions - 1) Vote on survey.
2)Email ivcoordinator@gmail.com with PD, ph#,email & subject "I485 filing impacted�,
3)Print/Circulate Fliers and spread FB, wiki link (see "support thread")
This is a supporting thread to the "Want to File I-485 without Current Priority Date? Gather here" thread started by pappu.
As suggested by pappu/starsun, this supporting thread provides impacted members with additional information and tools to help the initiative.
Visit Immigration Voice Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Employment_Based_Green_Card#Process_.28EB1.2C_EB2. 2C_and_EB3.29) - for overview of Employment Based - Green Card process
Visit I485 Filing w/o current PD Wiki (http://immigrationvoice.org/wiki/index.php/Current_Grass-Roots_Initiative_-_I-485_Filing_without_Current_Priority_Date) - for overview of this initiative
As pappu stated in the first post of the above referenced thread - some of the ongoing efforts include finding how many IV members would get benefit from such a provision and get basic details such as username/Priority Date of impacted members. Future action items might include drafting documents and letters to support this provision. There maybe actions such as sending emails etc. However we would not be able to open a public action item unless we can have thousands of our members willing to participate in a grassroots action item. This survey intends to understand the needs of our membership for this provision and collect grassroots information.
The fact is we have a dedicated group of volunteers (and we need more) who have been trying their best to spread the message about this initiative so that a strong grass-roots support can be created leading up to launch of the public action items. So far we have around 1100 people who have responded. Based on quick calculations carried out using PERM data, it is estimated that there are at least 60K-70K EB applicants waiting to file I-485/EAD/AP (this is a very conservative estimate..the actual number could be much more). Grass-roots initiatives require time and patience and we request maximum number of impacted folks to participate actively.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What can you do to participate?
1) Vote on the poll/survey created by Pappu.
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum14-members-forum/1599353-want-to-file-485-when-pd-is-not-current-gather-here.html

For how many years does the employer have to guarantee that it has funding to pay my salary? Or how does this thing work out. My employer has 300+ employees.
Any other requirements from the employer?
thanks
The employer has to be big enough (300+ is a big company) or if small (such as less than 15), it has to show company's return and sometimes business in hand.

General Motors emerged from bankruptcy today and promises it is the beginning of a new age for America's leading car manufacturer. Canadian-born Ray Young, the child of Chinese immigrants, is one of the folks leading GM to what will hopefully be a return to profitability. Young was interviewed by CNBC this morning and rightfully noted that every product GM launches must be a winner if the company is going to succeed. Young also indicated that GM is planning on having an initial public offering of new shares in the next few months in order to repay loans to taxpayers. GM...

Greetings,
First time poster, long time reader.
I recently received a RFE on my I-140 application for special registration (only apply for men born in the middle east). My attorney and I replied to the RFE letter explaining why I did not register for the requirement. It is been three months since they received my letter (as shown on the e-gov website). I still have not heard anything from USCIS. My status still reads 'RFE: Response Review'
My question is :
Do they always formally reply back to the applicant's RFE response and indicates whether they accepted it or not.? If so, will it be within the 4 month process time.?
Aprreciate any thoughts.
