All,
I' am a new member and I recently read about IV group on samachar.com with regards to the flower campaign. Congratulations to all of them who could file thier I-140's and I-485's. Special thanks to all those who were involved in getting this resolution.
This is my first post and I would like to know if we can all get together and request DOS for accomodating all the pending applicants with BEC's during the October's Visa bulletin.
I know it sounds ridiculous but if you put the numbers together...currently there are around 25000 applications pending with BEC's and by Aug 17th those numbers might come down to 22,000. I' am not sure what would USCIS or DOS would gain in holding these 22000 applications back. May be 50,000 with dependents.
The best solution would be to have PD's of April'2005 for all EB categories in the month of October'07. If IV group could lobby for all the remaining applicants at BEC's, then it would be ideal for every one. Justice to all aspiring legal immigrants.
All of us can then focus our energies on other issues like Visa numbers, capturing unused visas, not counting dependents in the visa quota etc.
I hope everyone (those who have already submitted I-140's and I-485's) can support us on this issue and this should be on top of all the priorities.
Please provide any suggestions you might have on this subject.

Hello,
I needed your advise whether i have a case to file an APPEAL to USCIS granting me 1 yr H1 extension (beyond 6th Yr) instead of 3 yr extension.?
Recently my 7th yr extension was approved for 1 year in Jul'09 with petition valid date till june'09 (date in the past) . At the time of filling the 7th yr extension, my I140 was not approved but during the processing of my h1 extension my I140 got approved and i had sent the approval copy along with an RFE i recieved in May'09.
Let me give my case background in details.
* LC applied in oct'07
* I-140 applied in May'08 after LC approval
* 6th yr on H1 ended in June 08
* had to return India since my LC < 1 yr and I-140 was not approved
* Employer based on an attorney's advise suggested to apply my 7th yr extension from India once my LC is one yr old (i.e. Oct'08)
� Mar09- applied 7th yr extension based on Approved LC (> 1 yr old ) and applied I-140
� Apr09- I-140 approved
� May09 � Received RFE on H1 extension, replied along with a copy of Approved I-140 hoping to get 3 yrs extension
� Jul09 � Received approval on H1X extension for 1 year with petition valid till Jun'09 (1 yr extension)
Appreciate your advise on the same.
Thanks,
Bikash

Anyone have any answers?
Hi,
I have a friend in India who applied to a new H1B through a consultant, was lucky to get through the lottery but is now stuck in RFE because of issues with the consultant. He heard from someone else that the same consultant is getting rejects and is nervous that his case will get rejected too.
I've heard that while a H1B case is pending (before it is denied), one can apply a separate petition from another employer and is still considered a valid application that is within the quota as it is for the same applicant.
Does anyone have experience in this area? What do you recommend? I also plan to contact an attorney regarding this to help my friend.

Thank you for all the quick replies.
I understand that in october, they might bring up some issues regarding Legal Green Card application.
One of them will be to clear the backlog for those who legally applied for the GC.
Can some kind soul please give me information about this ?
Does this applies to me or does it applies to the Employment based GC or GC application in general ?
Thank you for your time.

my wife has filed for her I-485 (AOS) with me.
She has an H1 whch expires in 2012.
she used her AP while entering US this year at port of entry. Office gave I-94 for one year(it expires in Jan 2011).
Now my question is does she has to do anything to renew her I-94?
If she doesnt renew her H-1 now will she be still in-status on H1?
does she have to renew her AP in order to stay in status?
This area of the law is very confusing and it would be great if some attorney or expert give their valuable suggestions on this.
Thanks in advance...

In the March issue of BioScience (a widely read scientific journal) Gillean Andres reports on the growing momentum for new federal incentives to attract new students into careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The article is available here: Washington Watch: The Cost of Doing Business: Should the United States Create Incentives for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) Labor? (http://www.aibs.org/washington-watch/washington_watch_2006_03.html).
Legislators in both parties have been attentive to these proposals. High-profile Republicans, including Representative Frank Wolf (VA) and former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, were among the first advocates for a renewed investment in innovation to protect the STEM workforce. Now they have been joined by leading House Democrats and a bipartisan group of senators.
So, the general political climate seems favorable to what Immigration Voice is trying to achieve. The question is whether IV can cash in on the opportunity.

I have a question on the receipt number. If we get the receipt number, does it mean "The application is accepted" (All the supporting documentation and fee are coorect)?
or
Are there any cases where receipt numbers is issued though the supporting documentation / fee is not correct?

There is a quirk in the SSA software! I applied for SSN for my two sons on August 31, 2007. Two weeks later I got the card in the mail for one son. After waiting another three weeks I went back to the SSA office and found that the application for the second son had been deleted! I was asked to resubmit the application which I did. After two weeks the card arrived in the mail but guess what? The card had my second son's names but the SSN already assigned to the first son.
Another trip to the SSA office revealed that their system would assume it's the same person if the first three letters of the first name and the first three letter of the last name as well as address match! Who would design such a matching algorithm? Why did they not match on birth date as well?
Anyway, I went back to the SSA office today and a new number is yet to be assigned to my second son! I was told the application is now with their headquarters where someone will manually assign the number.

The last report was somewhere in September 2007. Good to see that they have cleared July 07 bump in processing the 485s. they have nearly taken 29 months to clear it up.

As the house will go into a recess after around a month, is anyone seeing a possibility for a congressional action regarding the three pending immigration bills in the house? �A realistic possibility?
As per the calendar, we have time till August 4 and between September 7 & September 26, to get something done in Congress. It might be really difficult to get something done in September as that short time may be used by the congress for many high priority items.
Recess:
August 4 to September 7: House August Recess
August 9 to September 7: Senate August Recess
September 26: House Target Adjournment Date
I am wondering, what else I could do to push our bills to fruition.

I applied for H1B as a Software Test Engineer and my LCA is applied with the same job description. Now i wish to work as Programmer Analyst in the same location specified in the LCA. will i need to amend my LCA or H1B or is it fine to continue with the same LCA. Are there any chances of my LCA getting denied and how long will it take to get the new LCA. Thanking you in advance.
You will need to have the petitioner file an amended petition only if there has been a material change in the terms and conditions of your employment.
Compare the job duties (not just job titles) of the original and new job to determine if they are in the same Standard Occupational Classification (SOC). See, Find Occupations (http://online.onetcenter.org/find/). If the jobs are in the same SOC, they would both have the same prevailing wage and no material change has occurred. In that case, you may only need to get a new LCA. All LCAs take up to 7 business days to get certified by the DOL. In your case, Software Engineer and Programmer Analyst are probably materially different so an amended petition is most likely the best course of action.

Hi
I am qualified in finance;started my career in finance & continued for 4 yrs. then switched over to SAP implementation ; for over 3 yrs now, i have been into SAP implementation projects. I have H1B approved for SAP work.
Now, can I take up a job with a different title - say, "Finance Analyst" or "Corporate Finance"? I have been talking to various clients in California that are interested in offering me finance positions.
Please fill out your profile so people can answer your query in a better way.
