For any new comprehensive immigration reform, we must push for the Ability to be able to file for EAD after labor rather than having to wait for I-140 approval.
Do anybody know if any of the proposed bills have this provision? We must get together to push for this in the final bill as this doesn't harm anybody.
Thanks,
WaldenPond
I do not think any of the proposed bills push for I-485 filing after the Labor Cert itself. This has not been proposed because I-140 approval is not an issue right now. It is being approved as fast as one month these days. But I see no harm in asking for it. Let us reach for the moon and see what we get :)

Filing the application to port as seperate after the 140 is approved assures the attorney & the employer of of 2 things:
1. The attorney gets more money for filing a seperate application.
2. The employer gets to keep you tied down longer since its likely that the USCIS wont know what to do when a seperate application is filed just to port the date. Its not a documented procedure (that I am aware of) in that you have to file Form I-xxx or whatever.
Best to port the PD at the time of filing the 140.
Disclaimer: I am EB3 and I havent tried porting my date to EB2. Just using my basic common sense.
Crazyghoda,
I am still waiting for my PERM but i had talked to my attorney regarding porting of my old priority date he says i will have to wait till i get my new I-140 approved. I am not sure how should i convince him to file I-140 and priority porting application together once i get my PERM approval. I need some strong documentation to support my statement if he denies doing both together. I tried googling but yet to find some document related to this.
Thank you.

I was with with Company A and my H1B approval notice was until 2011 and my wife H4 approval notice was also until 2011.
Recently I changed to Company B, where this company applied only H1B transfer and received a receipt number for that and it is in pending status. And they are saying H4 transfer also applied at the same time but we didn't received the receipt notice yet.
In this H1B transfer process I got query on that petition, now Company B is saying I will not submit any documents for above query.
I have an EAD when I was with Company A and it is still valid. I am planning to move onto EAD.....
Can my wife change her status to F1 (Student) even her H4 transfer receipt is not available?
And the old H4 approval notice is still in approved status when I check in USCIS website.
Please help me in this situation, let me know all your opinion about this case.
~Thanks in advance.

Hi Gurus,
I want to switch my employer after my I140 gets approved. I may not be able to apply for I485 because of the Retrogression.
I have read somewhere that the priority date can be retained by the beneficiary once I140 is approved. Even though I restart the entire process from LC application, I can still hold the old priority date.
Are there any catches in this rule.
Please advise me.
I am no guru, but my understanding is that the old employer should not revoke/withdraw your I-140 AND he should not do fishy business with the LC itself that the I-140 is based upon, meaning should not substitue your approved labor with someone else. (Knowing most desi consultancies (if you belong to one), i am pretty sure, he will try to sell the old approved LC).

Hi sreedhar,
I am a July 2nd filer, after a long long wait, finally got my checks cleared on Oct 11, 2007, my lawyer received the I-765 and FP notices on 10/19, but not the I-485 receipt. Receipt date is 8/14, different A#s, Not able to check status online. Seems I am the lucky one got experience of all kinds of problems that July 2nd filer encountered.
Most importantly, without the physical I-485 receipt, I am not able to apply for AP... I am very worry about if the I-485 receipt was lost in mail.

A question on consular processing vs I-485. She already has a tourist visa. Also since she is deriving her green card status from mine, her priority date is current. Could she come to US on her tourist visa and we file for I-485 here instead of doing consular processing?
Thanks,
Dinesh
I don't think that it works that way. I believe she needed to be in US already on a visa that is not short term - perhaps H4 or F1 or something. I am not too sure though. You should consult with a lawyer prior to taking any action on this one

I have the same problem which zico described at below and I submitted my I-20 for an h1B amendment. It starts before my grace period time ends up.
My question is my amendment is still on pending process since September 17th. Will I be out of status if the school or I cancel my I-20 BEFORE the result of pending process of my H1B amendment?( Am I safe since I already passed October 1st?)
Second question is:Can I do an H1B transfer to another company in such a situation?
Thanks a lot for all help!!
My lawyer received my H1B approval in the mail yesterday. Online status said approved on 15th. But lawyer said that I will have to pick it up from India. Otherwise I'll have to file an amendment. I am guessing it is form I-797B (no I-94)
Anyone else in similar situation with any information?
Case:
* Regular quota (65k) Premium processing @ VSC
* Receipt date: April 9th (via email)
* Approved: April 15th (checked online status)
* Lawyer received mail approval on April 18th (US Postal Mail)
* Planning on taking Kaplan course from June - September which can be extended till Oct

I came here with my dad and mom. My dad's I-485 was denied because his I-140 was revoked. He appealed but it was dismissed. With the principle application denied, everything for me and my mom was also denied. Because I was just a child I really had no idea what was going on. However flipping through all the family documentations I don't see any deportation orders, I only see something that says we no longer has a valid non immigrant status and the district office has jurisdiction over issues of departure.
So my question is, and I realize this might be a stupid question, but what is my status in the U.S.? Am I an illegal immigrant?
Under what VISA did your parents enter US in the first place? When I-485 was denied, was the VISA based on which they had entered still valid? If yes, how long was it valid afterwards? What was your own VISA when you entered (even if you were a child, you would have your own passport and a dependent VISA)?
Am I deport-able? Am I visa overstayed? Since I did came here legally.
and with that status, is there anything I can do? Now that I am over 18 can I apply for visa/green card by myself? Through jobs or student visa? And what is the 3/10 reentry bar and how will it affect me?
I think I am one of the dream act students that failed today, and with that failed in the senate, I really dont know what to do. I know I might not deem to have the right to ask these questions, but any advice or help I would be grateful.

As per my understanding, extension will be given if and only if :
Either Labor is pending for more than 365 days or Labor and I-140 is approved.
If Labor is pending for more than 365 days, one year extension is approved and if Labor and I-140 is approved, three year extension is approved.
Am I right in interpreting the rule correctly?
Hello All,
I am on 7th year of my H1 and my I-140 is pending. Since my current H1 is about to expire, I need to file for my 8th year of H1 extension. Do you think there could be some problem in getting my 8th year extension since my labor is approved and I-140 is pending. The way I interpreted the extension rule is that you can only get the extension if your labor is pending for more than 1 year but in my case my labor is approved and I-140 is pending.And I cannot wait for I-140 approval since my current H1 is about to expire.
Please advise.
Thanks

You can have 2 different applications for PERM from different prospective employers. It is just like filing for 2 different H1-B visas.
I believe, typically you apply for I-485 with one employer. So until then having multiple PERM or I-140 should be OK.
I do not have any personal experience with multiple filing.

I successfully ported from EB3 to EB2 in the same company while on EAD
Now i am working on the new Eb2 position using the EAD obtained from the EB3 position. I have still not filed my Eb2 485 since dates are not current (priority date jan 2007)
The new Eb2 job description was similiar to Eb3 but the difference was that now it required masters degree and 1 year experience. This is becasue of more resposnitlity and supervisory role in the eb2 position. Also natural progression...
I qualified for the Eb2 position without using the Experience gained in the existing company. I had masters and previous experience which was used for qualification....
Also the older Eb3 position does not exist as it was modified to the new Eb2 position as the role now required more complexity...
Sharing my experience and wondering if everything is ok with my current situation? I do not have a h1b. I still work on EAd obtained from the Eb3 app and travel on AP and have not had any issues yet....
Hopefully you'll get green card in July.
Porting is not that big of an issue as it may seem, its just matter of employer being willing to cooperate with applicants, rest of things falls into place itself.

I am planning to move to different residence. My 485 application is currently pending.
Has anyone successfully filed change of address form? and have their EAD or other documents deliever to their new address correctly. Reason I am asking my friend changed his residence while his 485 pending and all his document would still come to my address (his old address). He made numerous request to USCIS and files for AR11 etc. His all documents EAD.. even Green card also came back to my address(His old adress). At least he was lucky that I was still staying over there.
Any thoughts much appreciated.
You can do it online by going to https://egov.uscis.gov/crisgwi/go?action=coa, from where you can select Change your address online at the bottom of the screen.
I did it and am getting all correspondences from the time I changed to my new address.

Dear All,
First of all, the idea of this note is to present some facts and thoughts, not to take sides. I am stuck in the GC line for a very long time and I have nothing to gain.
1. The present GC line is clogged due to the fact that between 2001 - 2003 (or 2004, I do not remember) the H1B quota was increased from 65000 to 130000 and even to 215000 at one point. Most of the skilled folks came from India but there was no proportional increase in GC quota for India
2. In other words, the US government prefers people to come and work at reduced wages and go back to their native countries. Every year wave after wave of new comers can keep coming, to keep costs low and profitability high, but they will not be encouraged to settle here. Like it or not, Capitalism is all about making money, everything else is secondary!
3. Many Indian companies stopped processing H1Bs after they realized that despite draconian bonds and vieled threats, the Indian techies on H1Bs switched jobs and started filing for GCs
4. Currently there is no limit on L1 visas. I am not sure how many actually come with L1 visas, but wherever I have been I have noticed that 80% of the project colleagues hold L1 visas. This implies that this no. could probably run to several thousands. Technically, H1B has been the eyesore to many people who comment about foreign workers though people coming on L1 far outweigh employees on H1. Is this because H1s have the option to file for GC (except ofcourse L1A)?
5. Under the circumstances, it is not clear how increasing H1Bs will help when there is a continuous inflow of L1 skilled workers over and above the 65000 H1 quota. Further, most of the H1 employees file for their GCs and join the eternal line and the never ending wait. So, in reality (like me) they get stuck with their employers and due to various family commitments, such as grown up children going to high school / college, are forced to pull on and sacrifice their entire active work life, under the threat of job insecurity!
6. The right and scientific approach would be to take a clear statistical account of all the skilled manpower available (US Citizens, GCs, EAD holders, EB2 / EB3 friends in the endless GC line) and try to map this data with the available jobs and the projected market situation over the next 5 years. Based on the scientific, quantitative analysis the government should decide on bringing in additional workforce. That would be logical and mathematical. There is no point flooding the market and creating social tension.
7. Instead of further complicating the quagmire of GC, the government should consider granting permanent residency to legal immigrants who have put in 10 continuous years of stay, without any criminal record
8. It is only in the USA that the system of giving GCs is NOT time bound. In every other western nation, every milestone has a definite pre-defined time period. I do not mind if the US says, "Stay for 20 years to get a GC!" Well , then it becomes a personal choice for one to take it or leave it. Sadly, we do not have this option!
Let us hope that something will work out before the end of the current term (2012)
Best wishes!
