dear members,
dint had much time to go thro' your responses. but if senior ppl are targetting this fellow( mercies) for this thread, then i beg to differ. because as a member of IV, i have been answering "hadron" posts too at immigration portal.
I think all Mercies is trying to do is help IV out, by preparing answers of such questions which stupid ppl ask, so they can be put to a stop right away. Probably he's drawing your attention to some q's that all of you have answers for, just guide mercies to that post,
but i think all of your remarks have been directed towards merices only as if he's started it all.
i guess we outta stop ppl who are trying to defame this collective effort by giving them one-point answers.
have to get back to work.
P.S.: i dont want anyone to think im from numbersusa ;)

Increase the Visa numbers, that's what we should be aiming for.
A one time news event is not going to solve the problem.
The July fiasco, should be used to start an all out campaign with Congress to increase the Visa numbers.
Let this opportunity not go to waste.
Please keep fighting.
Send flowers on 12th of every month to USCIS or DOS.
Do not let this opportunity go waste.

I filed my I-485 on 2nd July 2007, My 180 days completes on 29th Dec 2007
I am in IT job, My job title is System Analyst and I want change the job with similar job title Sr System Analyst , But the technology(Oracle Stuff to Java Stuff) will be different then what is on labor certification.
My future employer will not file H1-B, So I have to start on EAD.
What should be process for me to do the same
* Do I need to file AC21
* If yes, Can I do the AC21 with same or Different lawyer
My advice is to take a new job, leave the current employer on good terms and forget about AC21.

AP is sent to the lawyer if you filed the G328
Not always true, I've filed G-28 in my case, but received the AP at my residence address. Have friends/colleagues who had received AP at the attorney address. So it is kinda random. No logic behind this.
It is important we get the document.

Guys,
I had INFOPASS appointment today. We reached 15 minutes before scheduled time. 8101 N Stemmns Fwy - Building does not have visible number "8101" but large "Department of Homeland Security" board is easily visible. At the entrance we showed our infopass appointment letter and Guard told us to stand in a queue behind racks. I saw 2 different queues nearer to Window so curiously I asked the fellow who was right ahead of me and he told me that the queue where we stand is meant for people who have not taken appointment and other queue right across the window is meant for people who have taken an appointment. There are no sign boards for these 2 different queues. Guard misguided us so all in all we wasted 5 to 7 minutes I came out from that queue and stand in the right queue again. At the window I was asked for Driving license and purpose of the appointment. I showed driving license and told we filed AP in July, 1* but have not received it. He demanded I-131 receipts and I represented them. Then he gave us tag numbers for all family members including myself. Then we moved towards the main entrance of the bulding. Guard instructed us to remove wallet,pen, anything we had in our pockets, purse,belt etc (Cell phones are not allowed inside the building) and put in one bucket which was scanned through the machine like available on airports. We had to walk through metal detector and then took possesion of our belongings and then waited in the waiting room for approximately 15 minutes. As our tag number appears on the electronic board with assigned counter number, we went to the counter. Lady officer greeted us and asked the purpose of the appointment and again I represented infopass appointment letter and I-131 receipts and told her that I have not received our advanced parole yet although we filed on July 1*. She dived into her computer and said your all Advanced parole are already approved on 10/1*/07 (Which was the date of first (And only one) LUD on our APs) and already mailed to you so she can not issue either "Original" or "duplicate" Advanced parole. According to her I should be receiving them any day now. She herself wanted me to give me the info about EAD status without myself asking so I told her that we already received our EADs and then she asked me, do I have any question for her and I said yes, what would be our name check status and she again digged into computer.According to her my Name check is still pending and I should inquire again after 4 months by taking another infopass appointment. Upon my further digging she told me that if everything is "generally clean" then 4 months is a standard period to get name check clear so she suggested me "inquire after 4 months". According to her my family has already cleared name check.
Thanks.

The person looking at this letter might spend like 10 to 15 seconds glancing at it.
So we need to include like a subject line that in one sentence or two captures the essence of our issue(s). Something like:
Subject: LEGAL Skilled Immigrants - Issues faced with Employment Based (EB) Green Card process.
I liked the above 2 letters. If some one can frame a good letter, we can all send the letter to the senators as well as white house. Also we can get our state chapters involved and post all the letters within 2 weeks.
Thanks for the initiative. mmj

I am the primary applicant. I am planning to get married in next 1 year or so with a girl from India. If I get my GC then she will fall under family based which will take years for her to come here. I do not mind moving back if that happens.
Since I have valid H1 can I do something,
There is no reason for you to pull out your 485. Get your divorce expedited and get married quickly and you should be OK as EB3 India is not really moving forward unless there is a visa recapture or something like that.
Your spouse will of course lose her 485 and will have to start afresh. But I assume she already knows this and is OK with that.

Hey brother,
I am not trying to question your intent just trying to get some knowledge of facts. However your reasoning suggests that there are numbers available to overflow from EB2 World to EB2 India. What if there are just enough numbers to keep EB2 World rolling. I will be interesting in learning more about how these allocations work. Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.
If you are really interested in learning more how these allocations work, You might want to talk to 2 depts in Bureau of Consular Affairs.
1) OFFICE OF FIELD SUPPORT LIAISON (CA/VO/F)
2) OFFICE OF INFORMATION MANAGEMENT AND LIAISON (CA/VO/I)
Their numbers as per foia

Try your luck and enlighten all of us. Tell them that the VB is more exciting than the BCS rankings.

Bottom line, AC 21 comes with risk, and you have to be ready to ride the wave, if things are to get delayed or you are to be out of work for some time. If there was anything I could have done differently, I would have REALLY forced new employer to file H1b on my behalf. I feel i laid down too easily on this request after my previous company said they would not revoke I-140. I did ask the legal team of the new company, and they said no. I should have discussed with my bosses, since they really wanted me, and would have probably overriden the legal team.
But life goes on...
Good information for all those who had or thinking of using AC21.
Very well written to-the-point information.

Questions for everyone to research and post the answers------
......
-- Is there anywhere in the law, memo or rulebook that says 6 month employment is needed after getting green card.
There is no such law that specifies any duration one has to be employed by GC (or AC-21) employer. Period.

but isnt this the reason for LC advertising? That is, if a USC or permanent resident applies he should be given preference over an immigrant. By that rationale I am not so sure it is illegal.
Also, many large companies, when applying for jobs on their websites, mandatorily require you to state your visa status. While self-identification (race, sex) is always optional and cannot be required (by law, there will alwyas be a staement that says submission of this info is voluntary). t
They cannot ask it if it is illegal, and clearly this information is used in the employment process.
So, I am not so sure this is illegal.
I am pretty sure that discriminating on nationality is illegal, but that is different
Yes! An employer can chose not to sponsor a H1B and hire a USC or GC holder for various reasons (for examples companies dont hire H1b's for positions when they are laying off ). AFAIK, EEO doesnt consider a H1B applicant in the aspect you are talking. When EEO talks about National Origin, it is talking about any discrimination faced by you in case if you are denied a job given that you are Indian/Chinese/whatever.
