Pappu,
Please let me know your thoughts..
I-140 is approved. I-485 was filed in July 2007. I have an opportunity to move to another company for a similar job profile. But the new company wants me to work as a contractor (hourly) on W2.
Is that a problem when filing AC-21?
Please advise.
You may be able to find answers in the IV wikki - have you tried it?

Dear friend
It looks like you can show some light on my stuggle with ICICI bank to deposit money in My ICICI NRE account.
Story is like this, I went to India this summer deposited money to several mutual funds from my ICICI NRe account. One of the investment (in franklin ) was wrong by the mistake of my agent ( because US person can not invest in some of the US based mututal funds and frankln is US based fund) So I had to struggle to get money back from Franklin, as it was not proper investment ( wer mentioned NRE US based in forms, so they should have out right rejected investment, but they alloted it and then I have to fght back to get it returned)
Luckly due to my correct application I was able to get money back from franklin. they issued RS check, which I tried to deposit to my NRE account at ICICI bank. ICICI rejected check saying it is in RS. I tried to persue them it is REFUND FROM MUTUAL FUND (NRE INVESTMENT) from the same ICICI account but they still wants the proof that it NRE money. I have still this check bouncing back between me and ICCI bank. I also approached franklin to get letter. This time they have qouted some earlier RBI rule ( I have not read letter) and I am trying to redeposit that with check again.
Here in this My bigger question is we all are investing lot of Money from NRE account in Mutual funds and other investment options available to US in India as NRI. but when it comes to getting money back in our NRE account ( naturally all returns/refunds from India investment will be in RUPEES CHECKS ONLY) then we have big trouble like One I am facing right now.
SO DOES OUR INVESTMENT IS TRUELY REPRETRIABLE.
WE CAN GET OUR ORIGINAL INVESTMENT AS WELL AS GAINS ON THAT BACK TO NRE ACCOUNT OR NOT
IS IT THE ICICI BANK ONLY or ALL OTHER BANKS ARE GIVING TROUBLE wHEN WE TRY TO REDEPOSIT OUR MONEY ( in rupees) back to our NRE account.
Please explain your experiences in this regard.
If possible also provide links that talk in more details about REPRETRIABILITY OF NRE INVESTMENT
Also let me know which is best NRE bank to work with without any such hassles in India?

Attention all EB2 and EB3 folks who have I-485 pending at USCIS-
Currently AILA is reporting that there are two bills pending for Employment-Visa Recapture.
1.Reuniting Families Act (S. 1085) Introduced in the Senate(*)
2. Senate Judiciary Committee to Hold a Hearing on the Uniting American Families Act(**)
Reference-(*)(**) www.aila.org/
The S.1085 in the US Senate caters to specifically recapturing visa numbers for employment based category; i.e. ALL lost visas from 1997-2007 in the employment based category.
Also to remember is that re-captured employment based visas can only be used in the employment category. They CANNOT be used; repeat CANNOT be used in the Family category; however the vice-versa is true; i.e. unused Family Visas can be used in the employment category as happened last year 2008.
The second bill Uniting American Families Act is in the US House. Though the intent of this bill is not the same as the senate bill S.1085 noted above; an amendment can be made to make it the same. Currently, they are scheduling a House hearing on 3rd. June, 2009 for that bill.
We need HIGH level of action on the above two bills from IV Core and the Community; because of two reasons-
1. Adminstration has CHANGED; so one cannot assume that things which happened in past years will be the same. i.e. No action will be taken by lawmakers on the Immigration front. Remember it is the Democrats and we are back in the good Clinton year politics (which passed AC-21).
2. We need our Green Cards soon. India is the ONLY nation where 80% of EB folks are waiting for two years or more after I-485 submission, given security checkas and pre-processing has already been made for applications pending for two years.
Thanks,
WeldonSprings.

do you recommend filing PP for any Sch Cases filed after Octobe r2005 that haven't got approval yet? Immigration portal is full of examples of the really fast turn around of I-14o approvals and in one case of a concurrently filed I-140/ I-485
thanks for your input!!
1. There will be one less line in the Visa bulletin. ;) Before that happens of course, the line will change to 'U' for unavailable, to indicate that the entire 50K quota been used up.
2. any remaining schedule A's will be re-categorized under their original EB and country of origin and -- assuming those categories have cut-off dates before their PD -- they will be treated like all other i-485s that have been submitted and that cannot be approved.:(
3. If in future, another batch of Sched A numbers becomes available, USCIS will, as they did in May 2005, scan all pending I-485s for any that are Sched A eligible, pull those up for final processing, as well as begin to accept new Sched A I-485s.

I got only I-140 application copy with labor and not the approval notice with the help of FOIA.
You're welcome.
Yep. Got copies of labor, I-140 forms and approvals via FOIA. :)

Here's what i can add - my ead too has been pending for 4 months now.!
I went in for a second infopass this morning (14 degrees F - 5 block walk from where i parked.! I almost had a facial nerve plasy from the biting cold!). Anyway after looking into her system - the IO told me that the A # on my 485 receipt has not been linked to the 765 & 131 applications.! So she was busy typing so stuf for like 2-3 mins and then said that since my 485 was filed intially and the 765 & 131 were sent in after a month or so - hence this generated a miscommunication between both these sets of applications.
So since the A# is not tagged to the EAD & AP applications in thier system - i guess it seems like i have not filed for the EAD & AP at all.! Makes sense.?? I guess..!!
Anyway she was kinda nice....she was like... don't worry...etc..the last thing she said after i said thanks was "good luck - hang in there"..Imagine that coming from USCIS IO..!! Lets wait and see now if at all there is any progress on my case.!
My wife and I had the same exact experience at a local office. My 485 was filed on July 12 and my EAD/AP were filed on Aug 9. We went to the local office (2nd time) last week. We called USCIS before going there and were told to go there and then they would call the main center (NE) to "initiate" an interim EAD processing. Yet when we went there, the supposed to be supervisor told me that I was misinformed. She started bi*****g about how the USCIS customer service has been outsourced to a 3rd party company and they only read from old documents thus misleading people , blah, blah, blah...
Another officer who called my wife called NE center and gave them the A number and it did not show up. Reason: Although my 485 and EAD/AP were all sent to NE, for some reason, they shipped my 485 to TX thus leaving my EAD/AP without an A number. Their system is so screwed that they don't even have an option to amend that and put a note on my EAD/AP saying that the 485 is sitting in TX. Bottomline: We were sent back. We again called the USCIS and have initiated a "service request" to expedite. We will have to wait and see where it takes us. In the meantime, my wife is in a limbo as she is getting interview calls but is no sure what to tell them as her H1 is about to expire.

You do not need a lawyer, I can guide you thru the process :) Yes, I know a few cases where plaintiff requested court to force the USCIS to issue EAD. Some people were waiting more than a year! Those cases were usually bundled with I-485 WoM. One case is well-known class action lawsuit Ngwanyia v.Ashcroft, No.02-CV-502 (D.Minn.). Government promised to issue EAD within 100 days for the class.
http://www.ailf.org/lac/lac_020905.pdf
However I think you better of waiting 90 days from the receipt date and then requesting EAD on infopass. Lawsuit is not a speedy process, the government has 60 days to respond to your complaint and that's not the end of it.
I have already waited 90 days, my RD is July 02, ND is July 27.

So, what are the options for EB3-I? It appears that porting to EB2 will be more difficult moving forward due to difficulties in getting PERM approved especially for IT professions.
If the recapture of unused visas does happen, what is the estimate on how much EB3I would move?

Gave in and sent PP by Fedex yesterday for Schedule A, grp 2 case.My attorney did not advise me to PP nor did a legally brain I turn to for advice. He said its likely that I would get approved even during retrogression.
But I decided its better to know sooner than later, preferably before spouse started using EAD, and if a miracle happens (who can prevent miracles?) the 485 could also get approved concurrently with the 140.... And because I have 13 days more before retrogression hits. And because I saw people reportiing really qiuck turn around after PP. My employer was willing to pay half as well...
Well plus I did not want to be stuck in the general EB2 pool (India) which looks like its a black hole. I have an approved labor from 2004 there.(yet to file 140 for that one)..so didn't see a reason to be stuck there with a 2006 PD.
I still wonder if my reasons were sane and if my hasty action mght prevent my spouse from working -- if the 140 gets denied...Well, we'll take it as it comes..it may mean goodbye to the US or something..
BTW as far as I know, retrogression doesn't start till November 1st.

I had all paper work ready for PP and were sent to my Lawyer for premium processing of my Sch. A case. But retrogession occured that night in Nov. visa bulletin. So my lawyer advised me that it is not advantageous to go for it unless your date is current. So we did not filed it.
As I remeber you were not ready for premium process. Any reason or justification for rethinking your decision? let me know if you can outline some advatage of PP of Sch. A at this point, or have seen some cases which enjoyed some advantage due to PP very recently.

Thanks for 'thanking' us. :-). We don't get it much here.
It's a well documented point that face-to-face meetings have the best chance of influencing lawmaker decisions [based on survey of Congressmen offices]. Letters come next and E-mails with addresses come the last. E-mail by anonymous senders are ignored. Hence the insistence on more face-to-face meetings.
If you don't know it already (which I doubt), sending a large number of anonymous E-mails, and making a large number anonymous posts in any forum is considered SPAMMING. IV will never participate or encourage such SPAMMING activities which will harm it's reputation (and don't help the cause too!)
If you think President is too busy to read our letters, why do you assume Bernanke is having all the time in the world to read anonymous E-mails and letters? He should be super-busy monitoring the BAD economic situation.
Regarding, "EB2 (I) and world advancing" if the trend continues its a good news for many, and lesser wait times for others. However, keep in mind that the swing will reverse soon, and dates will move back once we reach the end of the year (oct). PDs will be swinging wildly back and forth , like a pendulum, from now on. But don't count on it helping you. It's like a lottery. You may get it, or miss it. Until visa numbers are increased ,a large number of us, unfortunately, will continue to be stuck in the backlog and will be motivated to participate (once we have missed it for 2-3 years, we definitely will be more appreciative and more active).
No need to make melodramatic statements like these "people who oppose an idea(and take extra effort to shoot it down) are much worse than those who do nothing ". Nobody here is stopping you or others from doing what you deem right. We are just "suggesting" that it's not a good idea. You are free to ignore our suggestions, and do whatever you like. We too have the "freedom of expression" to make suggestions. Don't we?
first of all a big THANKS !! for doing the above. so basically we come to the earlier point - if there are not enough dedicated members (due to laziness, family priorities etc etc) then we can try the next thing i.e. send letters / emails to whoever cares to read them and pray that something happens.
as of now (and in my knowledge) IV is only sending letters to the President - who is obviously a busy man and maybe the letters dont even reach him.
and hence maybe IV should start campaigns to send emails / letters to other important people (Ben, Paulson, Realtors association etc etc ) and hope that the word reaches important people.
there is bit of urgency too ..as EB2 (I) and world start to advance ..you will get less volunteers (who take the effort to write and email)... let alone people who will take a day off to meet congressmen.
maybe people can just send emails or post messages related to legal immigration on websites which have articles on housing, economy etc ..what is needed is leadership at top to direct people (rather than concentrating on one campaign only)

I am not sure how encouraging it will be for you to hear about some of our friends in tristate area.
Pretty much like you (Desi employers, 80/20 or 70/30 arrangements, found contracts through dice/monster/hotjobs, filed in jul 07 fiasco and AC21'ed off to full time positions). There is nothing wrong with these arrangements but unfortunately they are considered pretty much illegal from the H1b & immigration point of view.
Employers of many of them who have received their GC and many who are pending are currently being investigated. First they closed the gaping hole called substitution and now they are after all these sketchy employers and the petitions pending/approved through them.
It sucks for people whose petitions have been approved and are now trying to crystallize their lives by buying homes, etc. Administration holds the trump card in that they can revoke GC/citizenship anytime.
Few of these desi employers were nice enough to notify the beneficiaries. Many of these cases involve people who filed for EB2 i-140 to capture their EB3 dates after changing employers.

Is there any Specific date, I mean when AILF is filing the case...USCIS is announced they are gonna reject the applications..but did they rejected any single application?? We will come to know after 4 or 5 weeks abt our applications (As per USCIS rep)....I think there must be some time limit to file a case...and we dont have a base to file a case until they reject it.
Finally they dont reject application nor they will accept it...
Guys send flowers with all your comments on JULY 10TH...we may get media and political atten...
this is just my 2 cents.
Thanks,
Chandra.

create a yahoo group or blog..and have ppl publish the name anonymously of the desi bloodsuckers...some kind of activism is required..instead of coming on this board like some ballless buggers and crying like babies...grow up and take back ur life...bytch..;-)
btw..i am not in IT so..i dont have to deal with suck suckers.. i have read so many posts abt this.. i am fed up..
