It is not clear to me why there is inconsistency on whatever they reply for the processing of NSC-->CSC-->NSC cases. Sometime I hear NSC mentions that these transfer cases would be processed based on CSC processing date (which doen't make sense because CSC stopped processing of I-485 caes, so how CSC processing date would move and the transferred case is waiting in NSC not in CSC) and sometime I hear NSC mentions those cases would be processed based on NSC processing date. Which one is actually true ?
I am wondering so far have we seen any approval from NSC for NSC-->CSC-->NSC transferred cases whose processing date RD/ND falls in 2007 (after the 2006 processing date of CSC).

How long will it take to get a green card in this category with a PD in 2008?
Will it be better to find another Job and go EB2? My H1b started in Oct 2007.

you forgot one...
start a campaign to have USCIS count the time you spent waiting for GC to be counted towards the meaningless 5 yrs wait
After 4.5 years, you can file for Naturalization. You may want to keep a tab on which companies you worked for, period, pay etc starting from the day you entered in USA, keep copies of all previous W2 in safe place. Also, prepare a spreadsheet of when you were out of the country starting from the day you entered here. All the above will be required while filling up forms for naturalization.
Visit other forums/threads to see what is required and prepare for it. you have long time to go though.
Good luck.

I have my old employer visa and I-94 valid till mid next year. My new employer had filed a H1 extension with CSC which was denied but I got a H1 approval notice without I-94 stub. I was told by my attorney to go to canada and get a new I-94 card as I have a visa stamped which expires july of 2011. Being in west coast, I was planning to go to vancouver. Any one been through this, please post your experiences.
Thanks

Hopefully Nebraska July 2nd filers can start expecting the recipts in next 14 days !!!
And NSC -> TSC transfer dates, god knows how long the wait is
It's worth a wait, TSC is lot faster in processing EAD and AP after receiting than NSC.

I do not have personal experience with Fragomen; however I have heard that it is the large immigration law firm in the country.
The only problem (as far as I know) with them is that your PERM WILL be audited (according to DOL memo). This may lead to delays (and god only knows how long...)
Most people on this forum know this fact; I mentioned it as you appear to be the novice player...

Hi,
I got a dream job offer and I have not yet applied for OPT. I have not graduated from school and that's why I applied for CPT.
I just want to know can I work on CPT till my OPT arrives? Also would it be of concern to my employer that I am working on CPT as long as I am eligible to work legally full time? Is that something I should intimate my employer about before joining?
I would appreciate if someone can reply really soon.
Thanks a lot.
You should not have any problem working on CPT as long as the job is related to your field of study. Your employer will know this by looking at your CPT card since it has an expiration date. Be aware that when you apply for OPT you have to get your OPT effective date as CPT expiration date if you want to continue working.

Hi,
I came to the USA on F-1 student visa which is expired on 2005. Currently I have H1B status (I-797 form) (and NOT a stamped visa) and I-94 attached to the I-797 form.
My question is that. Can I visit Canada for less than 30 days and coming back without the need to get a visa (automatic visa re-validation) OR I have to get a visa?
I am worried because I never have a stamped H1B visa on my passoprt. Only H1B status + I94 which are not attached to the passoprt?
I need your help and how can I make sure as I do not want to lose my job.
Thank you,
John

I & My wife are working on H1-B visas currently. We two simulataneously started our Greencard process with our employers.
Both of us have a priority date of Sept 2006 & our EB category is Eb2. Both our labors got approved & applied for I-140s. My wife's I-140 got approved recently (from TSC) while Mine is still pending with NSC (Nebraska dates are behind).
A couple of months back, my current employer offered me a pre-aproved EB3 labor (from April 2004) & asked me to apply for I-140 (Substitute). He told me that once approved, I can port this EB3 2004 priority date onto my Eb2 I140. I applied for the same in premium processing, subsequently got an ability-to-Pay RFE and employer is working on providing audited financial statements from 2004.
Overall, we have 3 I-140s between me (2 pending) & my wife (1 Approved). Now that everything is current which one should we pick for applying I-485....This has become a big puzzle for us.
Here below is a snapshot of our status:
Me - EB2 (Sept 2006) - I-140 Pending
- EB3 (Apr 2004) - I-140 Pending (got RFE)
My wife - EB2 (Sept 2006) - I-140 Approved
Here are the options we could think of -
I know, the safest way is to apply I-485 to my wife's approved I-140. But with the DHS's forecast that retrogression is going to be back anytime around Spetember of this year, I am not sure if applying 485 based on a year 2006's date is any useful!! (We get EAD but we may be struck for years to get the green cards).
Is there an option for both of us to apply for I-485s (I will be dependent on my wife's application & my wife would be dependent on my application). If possible, this option gives us a safety net & also helps us in picking up the best. I know at some point, we have to choose between either of the I-485s but hopefully in a couple of months, we get clarity when both my I-140s are approved.
Or is it possible for me to apply for AOS on my pending EB2 2006 I-140 and then once my other Eb3 I-140 is also approved, Can I port the PDs while my I-485 is pending??
In essence, I am trying to find out a way to take advantage of 2004 Priority date I have (assuming Eb3 I-140 is approved).
Could you please help out, if you have any ideas!!

Hi,
I have an EAD (over a year now since I-140 approved), but never used it. Now, that Iam planning to switch my employer I have some questions about using EAD
1. Is it Mandatory to file AC21? No
2. Is AC21 required for each contract switch ? (Suppose Contract is W2), if so, wouldnt that be hard and expensive to file for every 3 or 6 months projects? "contract". You are doomed. GC is for "permanant full time" offer. So, new job based on AC21 should also be "permanant full time". If USCIS knows that you are working on a cotracr for a short term; wait for 485 denial notice.
3. Can I work on 1099? 1099 is a self-employed catagory. You can still use AC21, and self employed. Refer USCIS memos regarding AC21 and self employment.
Thanks in Advance....

Meanwhile I need to travel to Europe on business. I have a valid H-1 to re-enter US. Would my AP get approved before I return to US? If so, can I still enter with my valid H-1? My husband is planning to delay his biometrics until I get back. Are there any problems with this plan? Please advise

Hello
My Labor approved in May 2007, Still i didn't received my Labor Hard Copy.
Anyone in same boat??:eek:
You will not receive the originals. They will go to the entity that filed your LC - if a lawyer filed for it, the original will go to the lawyer. If the employer filed for it, the original will go to the employer. You will have to sign one page of the original document (which the employer/lawyer should send to you) before filing your I-140. The employer does not legally have to provide you with a copy of the LC either.
Now, if your employer/lawyer have not received the original from the DOL, he/she can follow the instructions as stated on the PLC website to obtain a duplicate certification copy. Although from what you are saying, if it was approved in May of last year, it will have expired by now anyway.

It's hard to answer your question without more details, such as your current status. Company B can definitely file a new H-1B for you. Your current status will dictate whether you "need" to tell them about the earlier filing. However, having a prior petition filed might not have any negative impact, so you probably don't need to be nervous about telling Co. B.

I (and my spouse as dependent) applied for I-485, AP, and EAD on July 17, 07 and am yet to get the receipt notice. My (and my spouse's) H-1 expires on 12/31/07 and I plan to travel out of the US between November 8 and December 24.
In case, the I-485 receipt notice does not come before we leave, would we be considered as having abandoned the PR application? Any idea how long it might take for the receipt notice to come for people in my shoes?
