I just found this link (http://immigrationvoice.blogspot.com/) where this topic is already covered. Mods, please remove my post (and maybe it would make sense to create threads specific to the USCIS/DOS mess up to - at the moment it does not look very organized to me and it is hard to find information. Maybe sub-threads with "law suit", "publicity" would channel comments better?)
--------------------------------------
I only read about an article in two online newspapers but believe this whole topic should get significantly more attention. I do not know if that is going to help to get this started but I sent an e-mail to our local TV stations and hope that some may be interested and even pick it up. Again, no idea if this is going to work but I assume that if they get more e-mails regarding the same topic, interest will come up....

Hi,
With having many international operating companies in the U.S. who all employ legal alliens who are going through the "greencard process" to become legal permanent residents, the Department of State (DOS) and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) have destroyed many plans, caused significant financial loss for applicants and very likely acted against the law. Here is an open letter from congresswoman Lofgren which explains the situation a little bit more detailed: http://lofgren.house.gov/PRArticle.aspx?NewsID=1808
I think this would be well worth a few minuted report - everybody is talking about the pain that the illegal immigrants go through but (without taking away anything from that), the pain of legal alliens having to deal with the willful behavior of USCIS and DOS is not much better.
If you would be interested in more information, I would be more than happy to help.
Best regards,

My current title is Software engineer and my company is promoting me to Senior Software Engineer. I am on H1 and have filed I-485 in last July and also have approved I-140. This is just the title change and my duties will be same.
(1) Does my company need to file H1 amendment to keep me on H1 or do I have to necessarily switch to EAD?
(2) Does anything changes with respect to GC process?
(3) Do I need to have any specific paper work from the my company that job duties are same?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

For what it's worth, I can totally understand why someone wouldn't want to use a DataGrid. The day that I happily use one will probably be the same day that all of my ambitions about life come to an end. Their corporate component-ness is hard to shake, and being told that they can be "skinned and customized" just forewarns of the fun times that you and your pal the DataGrid are going to have in the coming, sleepless nights ahead. :tired:

I visited the country first ~8 yrs ago as a visitor. I got a job offer from a desi company and they filed for my H1. I was never informed about status of the H1 petition. I was informed I am in status and it was OK to stay longer than the time allowed by my I-94 (in a visitor status).
In the process, I ended up staying about 10 days longer, but then I returned to India, and came back after a couple of months, again as a visitor.
Now I'm on a H1B (8th year) with I-140 approved, but haven't traveled at all, and would like to get a visa issued/stamped in my passport.
I have since lost touch with that employer and they don't seem to be in business any more, nor can the owner be contacted.
I recently learnt from someone that the petition was in fact approved.
I called USCIS, and I was told the employer who filed the petition can file a form (I-824?) to get a duplicate copy, but they need to attach a copy of the original as proof!! *Or I can file a request under Freedom of Information Act*, they're not sure how long that'll take to get processed.
Questions:
1) Will the overstay become a problem? I do not have any documentation of the filing/status/approval of the H1 petition filed at that time.
2) How else can I get a copy of the Approval Notice to prove I wasn't out of status during the less than 2 weeks of overstay about 8 years ago?
3) Will this become a problem with my I-485 (whenever that will be filed with a PD of early 2006)?
Thanks,
Jazz

Hello,
Can Team-IV go to USCIS as a group to ask them to clear the I140s pending quickly. This way, we can ask CIS to follow the FIFO rule.
If they can clear 100+K I129s in 6 months, Why can't they do the same for I140s??. I think there are about
135K pending I140s in CIS (Source immigration-law.com).
That would equate to 340K I485s pending. Even if I consider 10% as duplicates(No Source, just estimate), we will still get about 300K I1485s in the processing queue. This way, everybody will know which category is backlogged and plan accordingly.
As an Individual, we also will have one of the stage completed and be eligible for longer extension of stay etc.
Any suggestions???

What a great innovator with loafty goals.
I saw this guy on CBS 60 minutes and it was truly inspirational. He is not just an "Immigrant of the day" but an great intellect.
How come only one (OP) in this "Hi-tech-hi-skilled" immigrant community take note of this??
Have a great day.

But do most people HAVE the PD on the receipts, or not? What is the usual procedure followed by USCIS?
It is normal not to have PD on the receipts.

I read the link posted. This is an independent think tank about movement of people worldwide and the report in general analyses the three upcoming bills in relation to EB and non EB immigration and illegals. Overall the bill states that immigration is of benefit to the US and the degree of benefit depends on the legality and skill level of the immigrants, and they suggest that Family category 4 and DV category should be eliminated and used for EB immigration and also suggest readjusting the per country cap to accomadate for the reality of more immigrants from the retrogressed countries. I think this is good and we should include this in our presentation to the lawmakers, this will carry good weight.

Hi
My H1 Visa is about to expire in month of November 2009
Right now I am on bench and looking for projects
It might happen that I might have to go back to India
My labour is approved and I140 is under process.
Employer is ready to continue my GC processing.
If I go back to India and plan to come after I140 approval would it be possible?
Do I get new H1 on I140 approval or it is important for me to get I140 approval before November 2009
Please guide me
Thanks
Abbey

Hi all,
I recently appeared for L1A visa (blanket petition) at Delhi Consulate. I already have travelled to the US on B1 Visa and currently hold a valid B1 Visa. I was asked the following questions:
Q1: What do you at 'xxx' (my company's name)?
Q2: What is your designation?
Q3: How long have you been with 'xxx' (my company's name)?
Q4: How long have you working in managerial role?
Q5: How many people report into you?
Q6: Will you be performing same duties in the US?
Q7: Will you have people reporting into you?
Q8: but you will be hiring or firing individuals? you will not be measuring individual's performances?
I have been working with my org. for over 7 years and have travelled in various countries in the past. This was my frist L1 Visa application. My designation is of a manager and I work with over 50+ clients for my domain. My role in the US was to manage a function in our company.
From what I understood of my conversation with the consul - since I do not and will not have people reporting into me or have direct monitoring of individual performances, I do not fit in the "manager" category for the L1A Petition
Towards the end of the interview consul said that your company should apply your visa in different category. I couldnt ask the consul which category specifically.
My company is now evaluating the option of re-applying the Visa through Blanket L1 B for me.
Can anyone guide me the possible interpretation of "another category" ?
Secondly, we have time constraints for the project for which I was travelling. Hence, Individual Petition will take a great deal of time. If my Visa is applied under L1B category what are chances of it getting rejected? considering the fact that my company feels that L1A is the right category for my Visa application. :confused:

Can somebody mention how long it took to get AP approval at NSC ? I applied for AP at NSC on June 12th and I booked ticket for my wife for Aug 3rd, I was going to join her to India and booked my for October, I figured I would carry both the AP's and use it for coming back, now I am reading that AP has to be approved before she leaves or else it is no good. Can some body put their approval times at AP in recent times, so I can decide to change tickets accordingly ?

A background on my case. I have a valid H-1, stamped on my passport. Also, I have my GC in process for 4.5 yrs. My husband was on pending I-485 & working on EAD. In may 2010, my pending I-140 was denied and then appealed. And following that, both mine & my husband's I-485 was denied after 2 months. Our lawyer did file MTR within 30 days of I-485 denial and its still pending:
Questions:
1) Can my husband apply for H-4 by being within USA or he has to leave the country?
2) Also, since he is not on any non-immigrant status, does the accrual of 180 days of illegal stay apply to him?
3) If it does apply, what are the chances of him getting the H-4 approved if he applies from Canada or home country?
4) & If he leaves the country, is he abondoning the pending MTR of I-485 which would lead him be out of the GC process completely?
Any expert input & feedback on my queries will help me to figure out my scenario. I have consulted couple of lawyers on my case, but all of us has mixed feedback which is making it very tough to get the right answer & make the right decision. I am in complete messy situation right now.
Also, if somebody gone thru or going through the similar situation pls. let me know what was the result on your case. Ur help is highly appreciated
