plz confirm regarding the totally diff name on BC. it was made a few days after birth. i guess i was renamed after astrological consultations. No name change registered. BC only has a 'first' (nickname i guess..it's not even my nickname)...lol i got switched at birth...kidding.
so i am getting original BC. I will get affadavits with line saying "she was known by nickname --- at birth" or somethng like that...

Exactly....I don't say this a trick by USCIS to divert our attention but that will definitely be the result. Everyone here (except with the older priority dates) will face retrogression very soon. Please try to understand this folks.
Everyone will file for 485 and will get stuck in the backlog, before you know if, it will be Oct-08 and then they will scrap the old system and make everybody file under the point system. Which of course would be a nightmare as the USCIS or one of its derivatives would not be able to cope with the flood of application. At the end of the day all of us would be 1000s of dollar down and would still be posting here complaining about the process.
Bottom line is, with a limit of 20 amendments, one can be assured there won't be one looking out for us out on the fringes.

Libra,
I think everybody here appreciates your effort to get people to contribute. But use of such demeaning language is simply uncalled for.
This approach will simply drive away new members and degrade IV's reputation.
Another question is how do you know if somebody has not contributed. Maybe they did, but just didn't update their signature.
I almost don't feel like visiting here anymore because of all this. Bu you know what, missions of IV are way more important to us.. so much that we are willing to put up with all this and help IV further its missions.
Maybe, we should explore other avenue of making money, like banner ads and targeted SE ads.
People who come here just to create threads and post all silly things need to get remind that this forum/organization is ran by members contribution, people like me who are contributing are allowing you to use this site. You better get this.
And somebody said it right, to contribute someone has to be huMAN.

Anyone can throw light into this one. Can we track APs now for NSC.
NSC is receipting late and also their AP documents are mailed very late. Please let us know when we receive our AP document after getting the receipts? for eg. 10 days, 20 days etc..
It will help lot of us who want to make some travel plans.. [some like us are eagerly waiting for past 4 yrs!!!]
Thanks to IV and all the members
I don't think anyone will be able to predict when someone will get AP approved. USCIS has mentioned that they are concentrating on EAD more than anything else (read AP). Also, unlike TSC, NSC only issued receipts so I suppose they are issuing EAD's now. AP seems far away. Even TSC is behind in processing AP.

Hello,
In all the stories of INS, USCIS, DHS that I've read here, the lack of visibility, customer service and accountability seem to be the common theme.
However, I was pleasantly surprized by a call from IO a few weeks back in local office asking me for extra documents (Current employment letter as the original one was from 2007, 2007 tax returns and 2007/08 W-2).
He told me that though he had sent a letter, the letter would take a few days to reach and hence he wanted to call me up. He also told me that as my original fingerprints are expiring on 26th Feb, I should send the response as soon as possible to enable him to process the application.
Though I still don't have any extra hope that the application will be processed soon, it was nice to see a change in USCIS approach.
Hope this was not an exception to rule and we see more such behavior from USCIS that helps in clearing us from this awkward limbo situation.

We all know this EB3-EB2 game is total non-sense and unjust.
So many extra-ordinary people who could/should have been in EB2 are in EB3 simply because : corporate lawyer filed in wrong category, they did not want to work for a desi employer who would file in EB2 in exchange for a lot of things, they did not want to buy an approved labor and create fake experience certs/affidavits, or for various other family/job realated reasons which have nothing to do with his/her education/skills/experience.
At the same time, a lot of street smart people got their EB2 labor/I140 approved while they worked at gas stations.
In my opinion all IT professionals, MBA's, Lawyers, Doctors and all other BE/Btech/ME/MTech engg. should be in SAME category (EB2 or EB3). The only people who should be in a preferred category are the scientists who are actually working as research scientists for a govt or non-profit organization (not just anyone who bought a PhD from Dhanabad University for Rs 15000).
If there must be EB2 vs. EB3 then it should be based on a well-defined, measurable and well followed criteria, for example a aptitude/IQ test, interview/GD, there are many other ways to cover all types of talents.
There is already a preferred category for research scientists worth their salt: EB1 with NIW. What's there to say that an IQ test / aptitude test cannot be gamed?
EB2 vs EB3 already has a well defined criteria: job requirements. You could be a Ph.d from a hot-shot university, but may not be able to perform or may not be as valuable to a company as somebody with BS/MS with x yrs of work related experience.
Also if you are truly extraordinary, then it should be a cinch to scale up the corporate ladder and apply for a green card when you've reached a position that can qualify as EB2. No: you want to have your cake and eat it too: i.e. get an early PD and also apply in a faster (is it really now?) category. Can't sympathize with that.

DO NOT even think of making this mistake in the wildest of your dreams.
Get it renewed here, eve if it means paying the extra $100.00 for "Tatkal" service.
It is quick, simple and hassle free.
You better be very well connected with somebody in the Passport Office and the local police in you hometown, if yo want to get this done in India.

Looks like you got angry.Everybody knows H1 requirements as much as you do.Do you think are the only one who is smart in this world.I don't think so.
Thanks for sharing your "2 cents" opinion. I understand this is coming from a person who used the term slave for his H-1 job condition.
You haven't answer me the question"What if your H1 is denied once you started working with out its approval" which I replied in your first post.
If H-1B is denied, then you are out of luck. For that reason, I have mentioned that file H-1B premium, and join the new job after H-1B approval and you will have "peace of mind" in that case.
Also you have replied me that H1B is not for speculative job.If it is true then what is the need of H1 Change of employer.Can you inform USCIS to remove this option.
Read for yourself and get en-lighted.

[From the pdf link]
...to ensure that alien beneficiaries accorded H status have an actual job offer and are not coming to the United States for speculative employment.
When your H1 got approved first time the same USCIS verified your Educational certificates.Why they want to do the same verification again and again?
It is more than just educational qualification. The job has to be specialty occupation and employer has to define job duties in detail. Each H-1B petition is treated independently.
I advice you to read [dot com] articles which sometimes point out that USCIS document were not clear
Lawyers are entitled to opinion as well, just like anybody else. After all they are running business. FYI, I am not on visa anymore.

They can do a lot. on monday one mentioned that listeners should call a particular senators office and state their opinion against the bill, by tuesday 7000 had called the office.
Hello All,
My take: these talk radio hosts cannot do anything for our cause. They spend all the time in radio. Only lobbying works and that too a focussed effort. Our focus must be in getting the message across to the Judiciary Commitee members, then as many senators as possible. Next step will be with the house members and this is the most difficult task.
IV is doing this and the results are there in the form of amendments. On another track, Sen Cornyn has introduced a good point in his SKIL bill Section 402. This I am sure is the result of letter from someone affected by retrogression / backlog.
So, we can get results only by presenting our problems directly to Senators and Congressman.

you have to apply for extension hope you got the passport renewed.
Visa stamp is for entry, I-94 determines the status and length of stay. Even if the stamp is valid if I-94 is expiring you will be out of status.
If you have filed for I-485 then your status will become AOS.EXACTLY,btb i was in canada and travelled back on 07 feb 07.My passport was valid till sep 07,but somehow the IO gave me i94 till my visa expiry in 2009.

My wife AP online status said Sep 11 th. We received them on Sep 21 st.
What is the normal time frame for receiving AP papers?
My wife's AP papers were mailed on 17th Sep but we are still waiting for them.
Are they sent to applicants home or attorney's office?
Thanks in advance.
