I have one question that I will post here. I do not want to open a new thread.
I am inviting my in-laws and I filled their DS156 forms online. After filling everything, it generated the pdf file of DS156. In that pdf file, there is one section in upper right hand corner called "DO NOT WRITE IN THIS SPACE". Under that section there is a line (fill in the blanks type) starting with "On ______ by _____ under section 214(b) 221(g) ".
Now after generating the pdf, the appointment date was automatically put into this section. Example: "On 01 January 2009 by ......".
I am worried why they put the date there and the date was not there when I took appointment for my parents. I also checked my collegues parents DS156, and the date was still not there. It is Mumbai consulate.
Can somebody please confirm if they had similar experience and they got their parent's or in-laws visa granted??
Thanks.

Kumar,
It should come with in a week. It all depends on whether you filed your I-485 through attorney or not. For me they send it on 08/29/08. My attorneys informed me on 09/04/2008.
Hope that helps
Well - not really.
I was issued on 20th, Aug. but neither me nor my attorney got no clue. some received it within a week but some like me - 2 weeks passed already but still waiting. hope you will get yours soon. please share here when you do so.

I am on 4th yr of L1+H1 & planning to work on EAD for another employer on AC21. I want to know if can switch from EAD to H1 if any issue comes in 485.
Once I start work on EAD for another employer, can I extend my H1 visa which is expiring on july 2008 from the GC sponsering employer? Or I can I file new H1 with any employer & have it as backup in case if 485 will be rejected?
Please reply.
Thanks.

U.S. Seeks to Curb Illegal ImmigrationBy SUZANNE GAMBOA 08.10.07, 1:34 PM ET
WASHINGTON - A crackdown on illegal immigration will have to go forward without help from Congress, the Bush administration said Friday, asserting that an executive-branch-only approach is better than doing nothing.
Two Cabinet secretaries - Homeland Security's Michael Chertoff and Commerce's Carlos Gutierrez - said they had hoped to have new tools to combat illegal immigration before moving further to cope with the problem. But Congress could not agree on comprehensive legislation.
The officials said they'll rely instead on tools already in their arsenal, some of which are already under way, including a plan to administratively sanction employers who hire illegal immigrants.
At a joint news conference, Chertoff and Gutierrez put the onus on Congress for any consequences that may be suffered by employers as a result of the stepped-up enforcement effort.
"Our hope is that key elements of the Senate bill will see the light of day someday, but until Congress chooses to act we are going to be taking some energetic steps of our own," Chertoff said. The steps will "significantly strengthen our hand with respect to immigration enforcement."
The White House emphasized that its package of enforcement changes was all it could do under existing law - the same law that President Bush has repeatedly called unacceptable.
"Although the Congress has not addressed our broken immigration system by passing comprehensive reform legislation, my administration will continue to take every possible step to build upon the progress already made," Bush said as the changes were announced.
Presidential spokeswoman Dana Perino said Bush has used his executive authority in the past to improve immigration enforcement, such as by strengthening border enforcement. She was pressed on why - if the new changes were such a good idea - Bush hadn't made them already.
Perino, talking to reporters at the Kennebunkport, Maine, seaside home of Bush's father, George H.W. Bush, said the president held off on sweeping administrative action while pushing Congress to pass better legislation to address the matter. With that effort now sidelined, she said "We're going as far as we possibly can without Congress acting."
The administration rolled out a proposed rule that will require employers to fire employees unable to clear up problems with their Social Security numbers 90 days after they've been notified of such discrepancies in so-called "no match letters." Employers who fail to comply will face possible criminal fines and sanctions.
"This regulation lays out a clear pattern for doing the right thing which will afford protection for employers," Chertoff said. The new rule will be effective in 30 days.
Recognizing that the crackdown could hurt some industries - particularly agriculture, where more than half of workers are believed to be undocumented - Gutierrez said the Labor Department will try to make existing temporary seasonal agriculture worker and non-agriculture worker programs easier to use and more efficient.
In addition, Chertoff said he will try to use the department's regulatory authority to raise fines on employers by about 25 percent. Current fines are so modest that some companies consider them a cost of doing business, the agency said in a summary of the new enforcement effort.
The administration also wants to expand the list of international gangs whose members are automatically denied admission to the U.S., reduce processing times for immigrant background checks, and install by the end of the year an exit system so the departure of foreigners from the country can be recorded at airports and seaports.
The Homeland Security Department will ask states to voluntarily share their driver's license photos and records with the agency for use in an employment verification system. The sharing is meant to help employers detect fraudulent licenses.
Some of the initiatives are similar to proposals contained in the recent immigration measure which failed to pass in the Senate, though they are not nearly as sweeping.
....
....
....
He said the billions of dollars that Congress added for immigration enforcement and the administration's "enhanced commitment" on immigration enforcement will secure borders.
But Sen. Chuck Grassley, ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, said the administration "can talk until they're blue in the face" but "I won't be happy until I see action that's more than just a press conference and words on a piece of paper."
The Senate legislation was opposed by many conservatives who complained that people don't trust their government to start new immigration programs since existing immigration laws are not enforced.
....
....
....
Some lawmakers have kept up efforts to tighten the border. Last month, the Senate added $3 billion to a homeland security bill and devoted the money to U.S.-Mexico border security.

This link shows which senators supported and which ones opposed the bill.
http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=110&session=1&vote=00266
This motion was defeated by a very narrow margin (5 votes)... and you can see that exactly 5 senators abstained.
So, what this implies that some effort needs to go to contacting fence sitters and apprise them of our views and hopefully, get them to support us.
Would appreciate guidance from core team on this....

I and my wife got our licences from Bridgeport, CT DMV in July 2008(till 2014). I'm on H-1 and my wife is using EAD. We chose to get the renewal based on pending I-485. All they needed regarding immigration was I-485 original reciept(they did not accept photo copies). Try a different DMV in CT and see, it could be that pirticular officer who may not be trainied properly. I had to argue with one officer at that time because he also was giving me a similar reason that they gave to you, and he was corrected by another person at the office, probably a more experienced one.
I think it might be CT issue. There is an ongoing immigration fraud investigation against state employees so now they are over doing enforcement.

Thanks for all replies.. But the question still remain unanswered!!
Did no one filed EAD after filing I-485 at a center different than his/her I-485 processing center?? Did this filing trigger transfer of case to different processing center?

No one ever has gone to court over a Noncompete agreement issue. No one will.
I don't know about IT but in other professions people go to court all the time. I have seen several cases.

Definitely there is a plan. Let me put it this way -
1. There is a lot of work to create a non-profit org. and the initial founders of this org. has achieved that.
2. Once you set up a non-profit org., you are audited by IRS to make sure that none of the funds are used for personal expenses. So, there will be no misappropriation of funds.
3. I think it is pretty clear that a large part of the money will go towards lobbying.
4. People are spending money to go to Washington DC from all across US - that is where they are making the plan.
5. Please call the number on the website for a couple of minutes to find more details.
Remember this organization can be a huge factor in deciding how long you will have to wait for your GC.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi,
Have a query in regard to the H1B Visa status. Would it be ok to work for a different branch of the same company, when my unit is not able to provide me with the required number of hours/week. I work for a hospital as a physcial therapist, and am having trouble maintaining the full time hrs, Other units of the same hospital are desperately in need of the therapists.(But working for them would be under different tax id and also would be a seperate pay check, but the same hospital though).
Any answers would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

But dont you need to wait for AP approval to travel if you are in AdjustmentOfStatus Phase?
Thanks
You don't necessarily need an AP to travel if you have filed for AOS. If you have a valid H1 unexpired visa you can travel on that. You wife would need to get her H4 visa stamped to come back to US.
It is a matter of choice if you want to use AP for travel or your valid H1/H4 visa.

Folks,
We need to understand that we have chosen a tough but worthy effort in the form of this forum. As such it may be depressing to see the slow movement in DC.
We should not be setting ourselves some timelines like the ones stated in this email thread, and then feel depressed about seeing no positive results within that timeline...there are too many factors outside our control to do anything like that...
I think we are better off than we where we were last year, when the awareness was nil, and that backlog legislation only favored the RNs and the PTs, while we saw ourselves powerless...
Lets help the core team..and not get depressed over short timelines...I see light at the end of our efforts...may not be phenomenal..but I am sure it will make a difference...for each of us...

this is a Q for my Friend
He was working at Lehman before the company filed for chapter 11
... He has been told that salary will be paid for 3 months
Right now he is at home and looking for other offers and no H1b transfer has been started
Question is ... Is he OK ( in status ) currently or a H1b transfer has to be done ASAP
thanks
They are paying 3 months salary for a guy on H1B? Who is paying him?

Hi All,
My Current Situation: I-140 approved on Jan 22, 2009 with company B, 7th year of my H1 ending July 2009, Current company B applied H1 extension, But H1 extension (No RFE just straight denied) - Denied based on "Old Company A"s I-485 - which was denied in June 26th 2008. Iam still in project and no issue of paystubs and all.
Looks like USCIS didn�t considered my current company�s approved 1-140.
Right now, Employer applied MTR (appeal) provided all documents.. like approved I-140 copy, LC copy and previous H1 copies.. etc.
I don't have EAD.
Please some one share their experience and suggestions:
*Usually how much time they will take to respond this kind of Appeals (MTR).
And also for safe side -- can I file another H1 in premum processing while this MTR is in pending.
*If my MTR appeal decision getting delay... can I work for my employer even after July 13th until I get decision on my H1 Extension. Do I eligible for that or I need to go back India.
Iam really worried, I got 2 younger kids.
I request, Kindly give me your valuable advice.
Thank You All,
Wish Good
