Hello friends,
My prority will be current in Aug, next month. I filed I485 last july and my I140 is also approved long back in 2006. After filing I485 i do not see any LUD or anything on my case.
What will be the chances to get my I485 approve ? Do i need to followup / take appointment ( Infopass) etc ?
Appriciate your thoughts...
Well, one of my colleagues with EB-2 India PD of Nov 2003 took an InfoPass appointment as soon as the bulletin came out with his PD being current. IO told him that he is all set and should get his I-485 approved as soon as his application is picked for processing as per the processing dates....He did not see any LUDs...He applied his 485 in Jun 2007...He got the welcome email in the first week of the month when his PD was current...
So I am not sure if his InfoPass appointment triggered anything or his application was picked randomly..Whatever it is, its worth taking an InfoPass because it is the only thing in your control...Good luck..

Also I forgot to add, did you file form G28 for your attorney to represent you in your 485 case? I am just thinking out aloud here and please verify with your lawyer....
If your attorney is representing you, then he gets the original RFE with the yellow letter and has to respond on your behalf with the info..you only get a copy of the RFE letter.
In my case, my attorney is not representing me and hence I got all the originals and it's my responsibility to respond to the RFE, not the lawyers.
Once again, these are just my thoughts. IV seniors can respond and also ask your lawyer.

I applied I-485 in July 2007. But didn't apply for EAD/AP. I applied for EAD for the first time now, few days back and I was asked by my lawyer a check of $340 as application fee.
Hope this helps !!

Lets put it this way.
If you already have an H1B and are using your ead just as a back up, then no, you do not have to renew right away, you can re-apply as long as you have copies of your applied I-485 etc.
If you do not have an H1B but you also do not plan to work for a while (in the case of some dependants), then again, NO you do not need to renew right away.
However if the EAD is your PRIMARY document without which you cannot work, but you DO want to work, then YES you do want to renew it before the current ead expires.
My friend who is a contractor in the company where I am working, is right now on H1B. He is a very hard worker and cheerful fellow. My employer (among big5 tech companies in US) offered him fulltime position.
His EAD is going to be expired soon, as he is a july 07 filer. He is worried that if he joins my employer at this point, and if he doesn't get his EAD renewed in time, he would be in trouble.
He already sent papers for renew but haven't heard back. After six weeks, his current EAD will expire.
can anyone guide, what are his options? my employer will not file H1B. is there anything like interim EAD?

There are legitimate ways to deal with such business situations. Its called "Fair buiness practices", something that many employers, especially the "Desi" ones may not have heard.
They should find an average amount of time a person spends on bench. Let's say the average time is 1 month out of year.
Then, they should recaliberate the salary to what would be worth 11 months of salary and set it up that way. Just like you count vacation pay and other benefits like health insurance, etc as "Cost of hiring/retaining".
No one stays on bench forever, but every once in a while, there are 2 weeks here and 3 weeks there when you are between projects or simply, moving from location A to location B. You cannot work while you are moving in your U-Haul truck. But then, if the employer were to pay for every single bench(non productive time), then its not hard to figure out how to fund that bench salary. They can fund it by cutting the wages across the board by 5-10%. Just like they fund vacation period. Vacation is also non-productive, unbillable time like bench period. But 2-weeks paid vacation is pretty standard in most jobs. Such non-productive times are accounted as "Cost" of hiring/retaining employees besides the salaries and other benefits like health insurance.
But like I said, honor-system and fair business practise is something many employers of this class of "Synergy employers" havent heard of. Employees, if participating in an unholy alliance, really shouldnt be responsible, coz they dont call the shots of how the businesses are run. The employer has to have more grey-matter in his head to work out a legal way of running business where non-productive times and benches are inevitable.

They say that America is the land of opportunity, and therefore, so many people desire to Immigrate to this country.
Amid the news of an upcoming General Motors bankruptcy, the recession is not showing any signs of retreat. During these tough economic times, many institutions are trying to do their share to ease up the pain. US Citizenship and Immigration Services is not one of them. For USCIS this is business as usual.
When one applies for a US visa, whether it is for a Temporary work visa or for Permanent Residency, there is a fee charged for the processing of the application. These fees paid to the government range between $300 and $1365, depending on the type of application. While this is expensive, it is acceptable so long as it represents the actual costs of the service provided. Yet, there is a growing school of thought that USCIS currently charging fees way out of line with the actual costs.
The government should not be profiting from the fees it charges for its services. Permanent Resident and Temporary Visa applicants should not be used as cash machines for the American government. The government will already benefit from their tax dollars as they contribute to the economy. It is not right to ask immigrants to carry more than their share of the burden of paying for the general operation of government. Especially in this economic crisis.
When the government earns profits from application fees, this amounts to a form of extra taxation. Yet while other taxes in America have to be approved by Congress, visa application fees do not, making them a form of taxation without representation, and this goes against the basic principles of our democracy.
Asking individuals to cover the cost of their visa applications is fair. Using these applications to earn profits and not make any concessions in this recession is not. Immigrants are important contributors to the success of the American economy. They should be treated with respect, and not taken advantage of. We are all in this boat together.
My 2 cents.

There is a list of some prominent people in a Wiki article. Here is the link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_Americans
Not sure how many of these are EB based though.
Maybe there are more like these for people of different nationalities; I didn't check.

Got 3 yr extension with approved i-140.
If you do premium, you will know the decision in 15 days.

I am not sure if my reply is correct.
But if the dates are current for you, can you just not reapply for 485 ?
I can re-apply, but my 485 is already approved on July 8th!

one more question... if I reenter using my AP then IO always take you to some place/room to verify something or its sometimes/randomly only? I just realize that my connection time while coming back from one airport(POE) to another is just 2 hours.
I can tell you right now that 2 hrs is not enough time for your connection flight and it is NOT RANDOM.its for all AP holders

Your mention of 30 miles maximum, I believe, refers to distance to your work place. It is a lot of distance to commute at rush time. Nevertheless, Ferederick County is your best bet, where a small SFH or a good size TH can be found for your price.
BTW, why do you need "Lots of Indians". Don't you want to be part of the main stream if you have decided to live here?
I want to purchase an house in Washington DC/MD/VA. My office is close to Rockville. Please recommend the best place to buy an house based on the following criteria.
