These references are from the statement made on 24th June 2009. Nothing after that !!!!!!!!!!
:rolleyes:
CIR could not even get passed in 06 . 07 and right now economy is down so no hope for it. May be Obama wants to keep hope alive in Hispanic Voters so dems can win election in Nov 2010. Health Care is lagging behind schedule and it is very hard for him to press. How can people support CIR....?
also Hispanic caucus will not allow piecemeal until CIR fails. So I don't see even little ray of hope for recapture. Now left over is admin fixes. God knows what can be done under admin fixes..

Hi,
Can you tell me what your lawyer sent to the USCIS. How did he link the approved 140 to the pending 485. Did he fill any form? I am in the same boat. My both 140's are with the same company though.
Thanks

If the attorney submitted G-28 for that particular petition (which got the RFE), then only the attorney gets the RFE. But I believe any one can respond to the RFE (yourself or another attorney) along with a new G-28 to change the representation.
DISCLAIMER: I am not an Attorney and this is not a legal advice.
Just want to double confirm, are you sure that if G-28 is filed along with I-485, ONLY lawer receives RFE letter. Can you please point to any official link?
I left my old job where I filed G-28 with I-485. At my new job, HR in immigration department are telling me that there is no need to file G-28 since RFE is received by the applicant. Nor they recommend filing AC21. So no G-28 no AC21
Please guide.

3. Can my wife enter on H4 and then we add her name to 485 when she is in US?
If you have a valid H1 Visa, your wife can enter on H4. Regarding adding your wife's name to your 485 case, I am not sure, but I believe you have to wait until your PD becomes current....
IK
You don't add your wife's name to your I-485. She sends her own I-485. Of course, she can only send it in a month when your PD is Current. She should enter in the US on H4, for which you will need to keep your H1 valid at least until the time of her entry.

Thanks once again for the reply.
When you say I can retain the priority date, how does that work? Do I have to file the PERM again? Isn't the PERM what gives us the priority date? And then will I have to file the I-140 or is it that I need to file the I-140 only?
Thanks
Omi.
Omi, Mr. Raj would be having a free conference call in which you can ask questions. The call as of now is set for Oct 7, 2010 at 6.45PM EST. Follow the thread "Next Free Attorney Call" on IV for details

skil bill might turn out into pulp fiction..just like CIR did. If the ability to file for 485 when visa numbers are retrogressed is attained..then, thats awesome..but all Im saying is..given the fact that we havent had any favorable legislation ..atleast if we get portability when our labor/140 is pending and dont have to fear losing our priority dates..that will be a good start. Companys may not want us to have portability, infact I know many company that werent too happy with the AC-21 because it reduced the amount of time they could fleece the consultant, but I am saying this will be good for us

Just so all can understand :
Did you go for visa stamping while your current visa was valid and you came back to US with old (but valid) stamp while they are processing your request because they wanted more info?

got my 2yr EAD on Apr 1 and now a soft LUD on my 485 on 4/10.........and my date is nowhere close.....its feb 07....not sure whts going on.....I discussed it with an attorney in worse cum worse case I will be exploring the self employment clause onyou EAD......
Anyways if they issue an RFE isn't it generally mentioned there....in my case its not stating any status change........just a soft LUD
regards
Saket
Saket,
It is very common to see soft LUDs on the 485/140 when your EAD/AP get approved, especially if the 485/140 and the EAD/AP were filed at the same service center.
And yes, an RFE is almost always accompanied by a status change/hard LUD, reason I say 'almost' is because of the recent issues with the TSC computer system.
If you end up going the self employment route, please do keep us posted, I am sure many here would like to understand how that works and possibly explore it themselves.
Good luck.

Hi,
I am posting this on my friend's behalf. Here's his situation:
a) He's on H1
b) Applied for 485 / 765 / 131 through his employer.
c) Still on H1; EAD & AP approved.
d) Priority date no longer current for 485
e) He gets married.
f) Wife comes to US on H-4.
g) He's interested in switching jobs so that he can move on to new company and utilize his EAD, but since his wife is here on H4 - she would lose status.
h) Another thing is, she is also interested in working but can't do that on H-4.
Question: Is it possible to add her name as a dependent on his existing 485 & apply for her 765 & 131 (EAD / AP), even if his PD is not current? I've heard that some lawyers can file petition; but they charge hefty amount. But I've also heard that PD needs to be current in order to add his spouse's name as a dependent to 485 / 765 / 131.
Please let me know if it's possible to add the dependent regardless of PD being current or not.
Thanks in advance.

I have similar question about EB2 and experience with current employer
I came from China, so EB3 are really bad comparing with EB2
As I know I could not use experience at my current employer (Company A) to fill EB2, can I find a consulting company (Company B) who willing to sponsor my EB2, while still work for Company A (through Company B)?
Will that be some problem, or is it legal?
Yes. You can find a company B and ask them to process your case in EB2. Remember, GC is for future employment not current. So you can work for company A whereas your processing under EB2 thru company B can go ahead. However, you will need to join company B at some point in time. This is what my company B told me. I believe it is once you file your 485 but I am not sure.

Thanks for quick replies.
The reason for my concern is our Company lawyer has been getting calls from almost every person who went to India that they are either receiving 221G or getting denied.
Four of my co-workers are stuck due to administrative processing. But none of them attended Mumbai Consulate. My company has suggested that consulates are harassing people for no clear reason and hence should avoid India Travel for next few months.
Please continue to share your experiences.

I don't want to discourage you, but IV has looked into all these options earlier and has realized that it would be fruitless to try and ask our lazy politicians to take up our case with the US govt. More over this is an internal matter of US govt and Indian government cannot influence their policies and laws. Why would you expect Indian govt. to fight for you, when you left the Indian shores and want to settle down in US for your comfort?
Having said that, if you do have contacts and would like to take the lead in reaching out to the Indian govt, IV will support you. So please do the honors.
