Hi Khris,
Do you also have 2 PDs in same EB2 category?
I have submitted ombudsman case sheet by mail.
My lawyer also sent request through AILA liason. She asked me to wait 6 weeks before enquiring again.
yes sir, I do. One with my old employer and the other with my current employer. Thanks for the information

But since I also have H-1B and my sponsoring company did not cancel the H-1B since I am on LOA, can I work for another company on AC21 without H-1B canceled from previous sponsor.

I would like to open this thread for those who are worried about the implications of using AC21 after 180 days. Lots of folks on several thread have either attempted to scare(any desi consultant ;) ) or are just scared!
I would like to have ppl share there reviews and experiences but I assure you
that AC21 is the law and your I-140 revocation has no effect to your on going process if you've done as required by the law as follows:
1. Joined the new job in the same or similar category
&
2. Minimum salary as specified per approved labour
So pls dont worry..be happy..love AC21! :D

Hi Funny,
When were your respective I140s approved ? Were they with the same or different employer ?
Same employer, both of them were approved around mid 2007.

i think any form of protest will get u arrested.. rally is a diff thing... ppl have to realise all these immigration benefits are a privilege and not a right... its just so plain unlucky that so many of us with Master's Degree were forced to file in EB3.
Change of government is the only way. Bottom line is no one cares about us... cos we dont have a vote, we play the taxes, we pay SS/Medicare.. they know we will be here until we are forcefully pushed out....
P.S: before anyone starts a question asking what i have done.. I'm a responsible "immigrant" and have done and will do whatever i can

Hello All,
I was in H4 status but currently in AOS Pending Status. Is it possible to request for filing F1 thru my current school while the candidate is in AOS Pending / I-485 Pending Status. I would like to obtain the F1 thru school even though my I-485 is in pending status. Firstly, Is it possible to change the status from AOS Pending to F1. Secondly, what would be the process to obtiant the same.
I would really appreciate your feedback / inputs on this regard.
Thank you,
As gc_check mentioned, check with your school coordinators or an immigration attorney. Changing to F1 might endanger you AOS and your GC. F1 is a non-immigrant visa and does not allow for immigration intent like H1B. Hence moving to F1 from AOS could be construed as abandoning you intent to immigrate, therefore USCIS can deny your I-485. This is just my opinion - so consult a good lawyer.
Secondly, why do you want to convert to F1 when you are on AOS? You should be able to get all the benefits of F1 like TA/ RA, on-campus employment (and off-campus too) if you have an EAD. That would be a safer route for you - if you do not already have an EAD, apply for one and after getting your EAD, apply for SSN. That is the way I would go.

Rental income, stock dividends and interest are allowed under passive income. Passive income is allowed for H1-B (I had/have a rental property in a different state in the US, while I was still on H1B. It's a different matter that I am an EAD now...)
Please check if selling intellectual property (i.e., "Apps") on a website is a classified as a passive or an active income. I am strongly inclined to believe that it is a passive income as you are NOT doing the work of selling stuff (for example, if you sold stuff on eBay, that is passive income). Please check with an immigration attorney AND a CPA about the classification of active vs. passive incomes as it relates to web based businesses.
If it's confirmed to be passive - go ahead and make money.

As per my attorney it should be during the time of 140 you have to apply along with a copy of old PD.
Now I am not sure.
But the point is - Has he/she said it can not be done at I-485?:confused:

I filed my LC using regular process in EB3 category in Dec. 2003 and then LC was thrown to backlog center and pending there for ever. then I filed another LC using PERM in EB2 category in Dec. 2006 and got it approved in Jan. 2007, then filed I140 in Feb. 2007. Now my lawyer told me my EB3 case got recruitment instruction, but our company's policy doesn't allow same person to file two I140 application. Due to I already start my EB2 I-140 application, I can not continue my EB3 case, means I will have to withdraw it (if I have not file EB2 I-140 yet, I can continue my EB3 LC, but still need to decide which one I will pursue when file I-140 for either of them later on). I was planning to get two I140 approved and then carry over my earlier PD to file EB2 485. but now things get blocked by company's policy, which even prohibited me from paying by myself. Sign! Would you guys give me any good idea to see if I have way to get my EB3 case moving forward? thank you in advance.

Team, My Labor is filed under PERM was Audited and now approved.
For, Qualification it says Bachelor + No Experience
However, in Skills section it says 5 years of experience in Software Development (.NET).
I got Audited and was required to provide Business Justification for 5 years experience for software developer position.
Can this be applied in EB2?
Thanks!
No body answered the OP. I will try to answer it.
I think you are risking applying for EB2. I have had a very bad experience with attorney mishaps. You will be better off applying for EB3.
If the qualification in labor was stated as Bachelor + 5 years in all places that would get you qualify straight to EB2

My observation... based on i140 application
My case was sent to NSC and it remained in NSC, however applications of 5 colleagues of mine got transfered to TSC... and another 3 remained at NSC
There seems to be a pattern on how they transfer cases from NSC to TSC based on last name (this is totally based on a very small specimen)... posting it here to know if it holds any water
Last name starting with A, C, E, G, I, K..... transfered to TSC
Last name starting with B, D, F, H, J, L..... stayed at NSC
any comments? again this is only based on my observation on a very small # of cases

If your company is financially strong and can prove that they can pay your salary, then you will not have any problem. If your company is small and have only couple of consultants working and the earnings are less then you might have issues.

Should this not come from USCIS rather than coming from AILA? I would think this should be a press release or "news" on the USCIS website if they are starting this pilot.
Are we supposed to be worried about sending this email since someone has got access to the AILA letter and posted it here in IV?
This should be coming from USCIS or the attorney's offices...

I will be taking up a new job and I have been told by the new employer that, benifits will start after 30 days.
I presently have insurence through my employer. My understnading is that, insurence stops the day I leave the present employer. Now how do i handle the stop gap in insurence to be on safer side...??
Any help is appreciated...
AFAIK you can continue your insurance coverage as it was from previous employer only difference is that you will have to pay for it. Ask HR or Insurance Agent assigned/responsible for your employer.
Alternatively you can buy short term insurance, i used Fortis many times in past. Its very cheap and will cover you between jobs. Search for short-term coverage.

I'm in CA and my I-140 was approved by TSC (E-filing) and I-485 is pending at TSC (was filed at NSC initially).
here are my questions, I need help on...
1. If I file EAD now, where should I file?? TSC or NSC?
2. If its NSC (since I'm live in CA), will this filing trigger transfer of case from TSC to NSC??
who wants to be mess with NSC :)

How long is your I-485 pending? Ever thought about suing the USCIS? This is still the country of law.
Rajiv Khanna has gone on record about suing USCIS, he says majority of cases don't even get a hearing. Govt uses some kind of a law originally created for handling terror suspects against most of the cases against USCIS. How ever he says California is an exception

If you lived more than 6 months outside of India, you can choose any consulate.
Disclaimer: Not a legal advice
If you are a resident of Karnataka, TN, AP or Kerala, you need to schedule an appointment with Chennai consulate. With regards to PIMS, I guess consulates wll ask for this info. well in advance once you schedule the appointment. I got my VISA stamped from Chennai cosnulate during my visit in Feb and received my passport in 3 days. My wife who is in India now got her VISA stamped last month and the stamped passport was returned in 2 days. I don't think you need to worry too much about PIMS since the system is more streamlined now.
