Hi All,
My PD is 1st Aug 2006. Am i IN or OUT?
As per VB:
The cut-off date for an oversubscribed category is the priority date of the first applicant who could not be reached within the numerical limits. Only applicants who have a priority date earlier than the cut-off date may be allotted a number.
They stress and bolded "Earlier Than" so i am not IN???? :confused::confused::(:(

Hi,
I just became unemployed (today) but I obtained my GC through employment about 2 years ago. I have some questions:
I am planning to spend about a week or 2 in Canada, will that cause me any problems when I come back to the US? I will keep job hunting in Canada but for a job in the US as I intend to stay in the US.
No. If you however plan to be outside US for more than 6 months, then you might need to take some precautions so that your green card is not invalidated.
Am I entitled to unemployment benefits since I have a GC?
Yes.
Will my layoff create any problems for me when I want to become a citizen of the US in about 3 years?
Thank you so much.
It will not.
In general, as a green card holder, you have all rights and all responsibilities (including going to war for US in case the congress institutes draft) of a U.S. citizen, except voting rights. See the welcome letter you received with your green card.

I agree that option B is the correct choice. They are looking for you to have a stable residency, so having it established as the application time nears makes the most sense. Still, I would consult with an expert or an attorney if you have the opportunity.

Quick survey to findout how many people like the idea of having their passports restamped here in USA and avoid all the surprises and shocks. This doesn't need any legal fixes. It is a convenient measure for everyone. Besides it was an old practice that was stopped for "security" reasons or some crapp. It is a small step but helps with any cases like family emergency or some urgent business need to travel abroad.
Based on the poll results and suggestions, we can comeup with a strategy to address the issue.
This is alreay part of the Admin fix and unfortunately its not moving forward.

Did anyone get their 140 approved from Vermont?
My 140 and 485 were filed late July 07 in Nebrasks and I got notices stating the 485 was transferred to Texas and 140 was being processed in Vermont.
The Vermont processing time for 140s has been stagnant at April 2006 for a long time.
Wondering if anyone has any updates on this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Becks,
Thank you so much. I am much relieved now. So, As long as I work for the sponsoring employer(even though the labor location is different) is it ok to file Ac-21 and move to another employer.? My impression was that I was obliged to work for that exact position(the one on the labor) to prove the 'intent'.
Thanks.

Hi,
My wife got her H1B in Oct 2008. But could not work until date.
We want to get her H1B transferred back to H4. There are NO pay stubs for her.
I am on H1B with job. And I have my pay stubs.
Will there be any problem in her H1B to H4 transfer without her pay stubs ?
Thank you.

I believe your sister can apply for you int he 4th Family based category.
Below is the family based catgory, you can find this in any visa bulletin too.
FAMILY-SPONSORED PREFERENCES
First: Unmarried Sons and Daughters of Citizens: 23,400 plus any numbers not required for fourth preference.
Second: Spouses and Children, and Unmarried Sons and Daughters of Permanent
Residents: 114,200, plus the number (if any) by which the worldwide family preference level exceeds 226,000, and any unused first preference numbers:
A. Spouses and Children: 77% of the overall second preference limitation, of which 75% are exempt from the per-country limit;
B. Unmarried Sons and Daughters (21 years of age or older): 23% of the overall second preference limitation.
Third: Married Sons and Daughters of Citizens: 23,400, plus any numbers not required by first and second preferences.
Fourth: Brothers and Sisters of Adult Citizens: 65,000, plus any numbers not required by first three preferences.
I am not very sure if dual application is possible.

I guess we should ask them to remove the employer's restriction, which is the prime reason for extreme exploitation. H1b should not be restricitive. IV should also address the same. We are looking at the current problem with retrogression only, but what about future aspirants who come on H1.

Yes I did send a copy of I-485. I also sent a copy of her previous approved AP.
Did you send copy of her I-485? I-485's are individual petitions.

Reminded me of an incident when I was a teenager, a budding cricketer and was a huge fan of Nike sports shoes. I would see these uncles with big paunches wearing Nike and would think that the world is unfair that people like me don't get to wear Nike while random uncles do. Completely random thought!!!!
The point being - the situation we are in, we hope that our plight should be a discussion point in every conversation that India and US ensue in. It crossed my mind a couple of times that we should have pushed for it. State of mind I guess.
Do you think anyone will even mention (hopefully get solutions) the eb backlogs to the President when he is touring India? Do you think anything good might come out of it for us?

Dear All:
Details: Indian, in H1-B status. Current visa stamp in passport expires in mid July but employer is applying for the extension.
The situation: I want to quit my job late this summer and relocating to Asia. Before I leave this continent, I'd like to travel around South America and maybe even do some volunteer work. I'd love to travel for at least 1 and maybe even 2 months.
Ideally, I would like to re-enter the US after this trip and collect my bags before flying to India.
What are my options for re-entering?
1) Get new H1-B stamp in passport before quitting the job (though this would be kind of a pain/expense). Quit the job, ask the company not to cancel the visa and re-enter the US after the trip on the new H1 stamp. I am guessing this is a somewhat risky option as I would technically be out of status, right?
2) How hard would it be to switch to a tourist visa and get a new stamp in a country like say Argentina or Mexico?
What do you think my best option is or am I out of luck?

I can also see that the LUD on both my and my wife's 485 applications have changed. It happened on 4th feb i guess (that's when i got the notification).
As 'bostonian' mentions this can be a fingerprinting update or may be zipping and archiving of our files for all we know ;) (just kidding)

I currently work for a leading film company in the US and hold a senior position under a O1 non-immigrant visa. Last year I applied for my GC under EB3, which was the choice made by my company . My priority date is Jan 2008 and I recently had my I140 approved. However, I have heard that given my work history and experience, I may possibly qualify as EB1 if I did not apply through company sponsorship. My question is, can I simply cancel my current application and re-apply myself under EB1 using my own lawyer? I am really hoping that I can change this category as the EB3 situation seems to be completely ridiculous.
Thanks!
Thanks!
