Friends, enlighten me...Is this chat about long term action plan or is it the immediate action plan for oct bulletin retrogression?
If it is for the former, then that's fine and we have to pursue...
Then what about the latter? If it is for the latter, then we hardly have any time in Sep to atleast get something out of the remaining couple of weeks in Sep. No offense, but it is taking too long in the discussion and therefore I am for sending individual protests in the meantime before we finalize and decide the longterm action plan. So based on discussions couple of days ago in the forum, I am sending an individual protest letter (that was generally agreed upon in other threads) and fliers along with with it...

I am one of the July 2 filers. I need to go to India on 1st November. I was hoping that AP will come by that time. But there has been no progress on that. Just spoke to my Attorney. She said that USCIS does not have any facility to issue AP for an emergency.
Then I called USCIS. I was told the same thing. The Customer Service representative said - I should go wherever I need to go. On arrival contact the local US Embassy and tell them that you need AP to travel back. They will "guide you".
On this forum I have read about INFOPASS many times. I was hoping to use that facility if I did not get AP in time. I am trying to find out if anybody actually used INFOPASS to meet a local Immigration Officer and got AP on an emergency basis.
No theoretical guesses please.
Thanks

Do I need to do any thing, is it required to renew AP to stay in status.
NO. AP does not give you any status, it is just a travel document. It seems as though you are in valid H-1B status and your son has H-4, though I cannot say for certain without seeing your paperwork.

He is ripping money out of you, where are you located?
I just came back from doc..and he charged 400 dollars (xray will cost more in next few days. Anyways, he says he need to administer Tetnus 3 times (6 months apart).
I am not sure what he will say in report (which i get in couple of days). But my question to you all is :
When Shots are given with time lag, Is 485 processed normally or RFE happens or do USCIS just wait for all shots to be completed and submission of report by doc before they process anything?
Please Reply

According to current visa bulletttin, EB2 -INDIA is 15 FEB 04.
Your profile shows your PD DEC. 2005.
How you got the GC, when the PD is not current?
If my mistake, you need to contact USCIS, otherwise they can find out the mistake and revoke any time.
Not necessarily. USCIS works in a magical way. They might allot a number when the dates were current and work on the application leisurely and approve it after a while.
(btw, this is purely based on info from different forums and I don't have any clue (neither USCIS :) of how they work)

Even I have moved a bit in the past and hence provided one address of a family member for all GC related communication.
A lot of times people have multiple properties that they rent out in one state and they themselves work and live in a seperate state. So you would be fine, else you would have to update your address every 4 months and will have to make sure by calling etc that the address was updated in time.

Thanks so much RAM C.
I have one more question.. if possible could you please clarify this also for me..?
I don't know the procedure for obtaining SSN, but i gathered that I have to show my I-94 at the SSA office, along with passport and other ID's.
My I-94(at POE) and Visa stamping expired in 2006.
Got extension till 2007, and then got H1B, followed by EAD.
I haven't been outside the country, so my current valid I-94 is part of my H1 appoval notice...so do I have to show my H1 also?
Sorry.. for all the questions.. I tried to call the local office but couldn't get through...
THANK YOU
I REALLY appreciate your answers..
Yes that is true, you have to show your passport and I-94 and EAD
you should be fine if they ask about expired I-94 (with stamp) as you have an extension till 2007.
so to answer your question show H1 extension if they ask.
hope this helps.
Good Luck :)

Guys, I seen many people who became devotee of Sathya Sai Baba to get instant gratification such fast money, success etc. But when they realized that Just by being his devotes, they can't just wipe out their past Karma and get instant results so they were angry and started evil saying and comment against Baba. Unless you really follow his teachings and discipline and understand what he has done to India and all mankind, it is ignorance to judge him, he is beyond our limited thinking of instant gratifications and thinking of selfishness.

But the point is - Has he/she said it can not be done at I-485?:confused:
To my best knowledge the PD is set at the I-140 stage. As a matter of fact, there's a field in the administrative part of that form where the PD is stated. Short of saying that it wouldn't be possible to claim an earlier PD at the I-485 stage I would assume that your lawyer should jump much more loops to get you an earlier PD then.

Hello All,
Just curious and needed your opinion. My wife has a valid H4 status until 2010 (no visa but petition approved). She used her EAD card for all of 5 days about a year ago and then has not worked since then. I am confused if I need to apply for renewal of her EAD to maintain her legal status in the country considering having used EAD for 5 days might have triggered her out of H4 status. Any thoughts on this? Do i need to renew her EAD to maintain her legal status in the country even with a valid H4 petition until 2010? We also have 485 petition filed and pending over 180 days. I am wondering if it is required for a person with 485 pending for over 180 days to always maintain a valid EAD card even though they are not employeed. Thank you all in advance.

I worked for company A till Jun 2003 on h1 for 3 years. Then i went back to India and switched to company B. Now I'm in US on L1 thru company B. I'm thinking of switching back to company A in US. But my H1 got expired on June 2004. My question: Is it possible to renew the original H1 processed by company A now and start working for it? Please help.You said you have worked for Company A for 3yrs.in that case you H1 is arleady expired unless you have revalidated from company A.. If you have to work for Company A again you have to file a new H1B.

Dear XYZ,
Thank you for contacting me about changing H-1B and L-1 immigration policy. I understand your concerns.
As you may know, Senator Richard Durbin (D-Illinois) introduced the H-1B and L-1 Visa Reform Act (S.887) on April 23, 2009. This legislation would change current immigration laws to limit the number of special occupation and intra-company transfer workers permitted to receive United States visas. It would also increase the oversight of H-1B and L-1 visa holders to reduce fraud and abuses in the system. This bill is currently pending before the Senate Judiciary Committee, of which I am not a member. Should this or related legislation come before me for a vote, I will keep your views in mind.
Thank you again for contacting me. Please continue to keep me informed about issues of concern to you and your family.
Sincerely,
United States Senator
I received the same email too.What a pity.....
