I don't think that anyone minds that you discuss this, but for that you should pick this area http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=16 that has a little bit of everything and comments about current events.

Gurus pls help,
Here's my situation.
I'm a derivative and recently got an interview notice.
1) My spouse came here with H1 status (without me). Because my spouse's company can only start processing my H4 visa, 3 months after my spouse start date. Since it will be difficult for us to be thousands of miles away, we decided to use my tourist visa and come here so that I can join my spouse. So, I came here initially in B1/B2 status (around February 2006). After 3 months (around May 2006), I got a job offer from one company and was willing to sponsor my H1 visa. During the H1 processing, I had to go back home for emergency. Again came back to US using B1/B2. After I came back, we got a RFE asking for the new I-94. Then, my H1 was approved around November 2006 but only started getting paid around May 2007 (after I got a client).
If asked during the interview, when I started working? Should I answer November 2006 (when my H1 visa was approved) or May 2007 (when I started getting paid bec I got a client)?
2) Late last year we went to Canada and our I-94 was not taken from us. We were told that it's because we will be in Canada for few days only. Hence, we dont have a new I-94 in our hands. Currently, we're still holding old I-94. When we filed our I-485, the last entry date we entered was based on the Canada trip so it wont match the date with the old I-94. Will this cause a problem during the interview?
Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks
Hello there,
Well I can answer one question of your's, when you travel to Canada, they don't normally put a new I94 ( I have driven too many times)
So I would put the date specified on the old 1-94 exclusive of my trips to Canada, reason being I-94 is the only official record of entering and exiting the country. So why complicate things more?
Hope it helps

Hi Thank you all,
Today (03/15/2010) my employer got Receipt No mail from VSC. It says that VSC Received date is 03/12/2010 and the count of 15 days will start from 03/12/2010.But FedEx Delivery date is 03/04/2010.
Does they process premium processing like this?
Hi attorneys/seniors,

Date received shown:03/12/2010
Status check online by 1:00 PM(03/15/2010)
Status:Acceptance
Date received shown:03/15/2010
Status went back from Inital review to Acceptance and date also changed from 03/12/2010 to 03/15/2010.

What if USCIS had not screwed up by using all "C"s in July bulletin? You would not have even filed AOS !! Think positively. And don't show even a sign that you are waiting for 180 days; just count them inside. Until then your sponsor can pull the plug anytime by revolking your I-140, and if that happens, you are back to square one.
It all depends on the rollercoster where you have been in your life.
May be one day I would be on the other side talking more optimistic.
But I would never critic others opinion based on the fact that what they are going through (in life).
But I would say good luck to you my friend.

I dont think this ammendment will delay 485 as by the time they take a look at what ammendment is sent, your 485 might be approved :)

Moved residence couple of weeks back. Changed address online for my 485 case and added for spouse and child as weel?
Is it ok to continue and add spouse and child cases for address change along with my case or do i need to start from scratch with their A numbers? Any idea.
It should be new procedure for each person.

superdude,
I did change the title. I apologise about the original title which i accept was ambiguous.
however, I was not making any assumption.
if you read my message carefully, i asked a question. I asked if W2s and/or paystubs would be enough to prove that you have always been in lawful status. And I put a context around it by saying"assuming i do not have all of my I797s and I94s". What I meant was "in the case I do not have all of my prior I797s and I94s"
No need to worry. Keep all the documents - paystubs - visa stamps etc since your last entry. Thats all uscis asks.

Since his i140 is approved he should be eligible for H1B 3 yrs extension. I think it does not matter even if has changed employer.

I have got the A#. Thanks guys..
is this the number same even to my 140? I guess this number is assigned at the 140 stage.
so if i give a call to USCIS and ask the status by giving the A# will they tell me the 140 status.
With the A# they can pull up your record (which should in theory include all your applications)...
Will they give you your 140 status?
Answer: You will find out when you call 'em up :)

I wanted to get some idea on why EB2 got stuck around Jan 03 when it flew past Apr 01 deadline.
EB2 was completely unaffected by 245(i) and had no reason to be stuck on Apr 01.
EB2 being stuck around Jan 03 etc... could actually be a good news for EB3. Why? It means that the number of people who abandoned their EB3 PDs to escape retrogression and filed for EB2 is very large!
The key thing to watch for India EB3 people is that PD should remain beyond May 1st, 2001. If it doesn' revert back to April, we can assume steady progress.
All in all, I don't see any reason why Jan 2003 will have any -ve affect on EB3... it could be +ve though.

My H1B visa stamping application finally got approved after 2 months at the Mumbai consulate. But I travelled back on the AP a month back as my employer started getting impatient.
I have received an email from them asking to submit the passport for stamping as the administrative processing on the application is completed.
I am planning to write back to them that I no longer need a visa stamp for travel as I travelled back on the AP. Would this be a bad idea ?
Has anyone withdrawn their H1B visa stamping application before ?
Appreciate any information on this.

ok- so , I am guessing the consensus is go with the earlier PD (+ EB3).
Also, is the SKILL bill is for people with higher ed from the US- both of us qualify for that as we both comepleted our MS in the US.
Absolutely earlier PD. Because the numbers will get retrogressed to 02/03 level in october and will move slowly for a long time. So the earlier PD will be better! Also, forget SKIL bill thats not happening for a very long time!

Hello IVans,
Does anyone feel the same? any thoughts?
But only because they know everybody will be frustrated with the wait & opt for PP - Another clever manipulation IMHO.

According to one website http://www.immigration-law.com the USCIS is working on trying to streamline processing I-140 petitions to four months by April 2009. I quote the following from the website
--------------------------------------------------------
10/08/2008: I-140 Processing in Four Months by April 2009?
* This is a five-month old information which has just been released. This source of information indicates that the USCIS was hiring and training new employees and by April 2009, I-140 petitions might be processed in four months. It is a good news in a way.
--------------------------------------------------------
Going by the previous track record of the USCIS though, I do have reasons to be skeptical about that. We will find out in April eventually, unless our invididual petitions get approved before that. The only issue is that in the interim we still have the threat to jobs in this bad economy. The other concern of mine is that older petitions might get dumped into another Backlog Elimination Center and they only work efficiently on newer I-140 petitions. That solution would be hell for people with older I-140 applications

Thanks Jasmine/lacrossegc/etal,
Btw, one twist I have is that my birth certificate is in Punjabi. How should I get that translated. Is there a procedure? Or simply should/can I get some equivalent, such as affidavite from my parents attested by some govt authority etc.,
Also, in case I can't make it now (depends on preponing air tickets etc), may I have to wait couple of more years. My priority date is Mar'05 and EB2. Some rough idea atleast..
thanks so much,

PS: really thanks.. a zillion. I am not even able to contact my attorney now. So your responses are helping me invaluably.

Guys,
The doc I went to for the medical exam gave me Chicken Pox and MMR Vaccine. But for Tetanus, as I took one in 1999 , the doc said since its valid for 10 years I don't need one. He went by my word and filled the vaccine supplemant form accordingly.
My doubt is I did not have any wrriten records to show that I took this vaccine in 1999.
Does USCIS requires the civil surgeon to provide the vaccination record document along with 693 & vaccination supplement form? or does it just go by what the civil surgeon mentions in the supplemental form?
Thanks
