Question: Why Canada is not in the list of countries?
US Canada has different agreement and for that 40 credits are not required. Even if a Canadian Citizen has earned 1 credit it is transferred to Canada.
US has several type of agreement between different countries. With India, it is 40 Credit. With some of the countries, no benefit.
With Canadian Citizen's benefit is reduced by windfall limit. If Canadian citizen works 15 years in USA (60 Credit) and 25 years in Canada, total retirement benefits becomes too much. So it it reduced.
If there is such new agreement between US-India, the returning Indian Citizen may have reduced benefits if they work 10 or over 10 years in USA. For example if policy says max Rs.50,000 per month. Right now for a couple it could be equivelent to over Rs.100,000.
So although for returning Indians, this news is welcome news for Indians earning credit less that 40, it may not be so for Indians earning more than 40 credits.
(I used word - couple. USA pays retirement benefit to non working spouse also - equivalent to 50% of working spouse. As I remember, India does not pay retirement benefits to non working spouse).
(The social security benefits has several components - retirement, death, disability, unemployment, medicare, ... Medicare for sure is not available for Indian Citizen returning to India)

If so can we explore this option??
I agree with you. Why we don`t explore this option ???? USCIS make so many rule by itself then why they don`t make this rule to file 485 while PD is not current without going in Senate. Like they start premium processing of I-140. They make this rule without any bill in US Senate. correct me if I am wrong
I think, core team should look this option or ask us to find more information about it. I think, core team can meet with high official from USCIS.
what do you guys think about it ??
thx.

One way to get reciept notice or anything else for that matter is to file G-28 and change attorney on record. Second would be to file for Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and asking for all the records. Here what I gathered from Murthy Chat
Chat User : When the employer sponsors and retains the I-485 receipt without processing the EAD/AP, can an individual apply for an EAD mentioning the receipt number without jeopardizing GC processing?
Attorney Murthy : Yes, a person may file the EAD with just the receipt number on the Form I-765 without jeopardizing the I-485 processing. The EAD and AP are merely incidental benefits and are not directly connected with the I-485 processing or adjudication.
BumbleB
BumbleB,
Even if I can apply for EAD/AP, will I be able to change employer using AC21 without the receipt notice? Using G28 may not be an option before 6 months as the current lawyer is hired and paid by the employer.
How much time does FOIA take?
Thanks

Like rollover minutes for a mobile phone plan .... I think we should propose USCIS to rollover the unused visa numbers to the next year. :D
Can you please let us know if we are making progress towards unused Visa Recapture ? Thanks

Thanks guys for your reply. This was tremendous knowledge that you guys dumped in.
Let's say if I am on the green card (EAD) , then still I can not evade this tax situation correct ?I mean if they pay me and I pay to the company in India who is really responsible for the service.
Right now, with the current setup, the company in India will have to pay corporate taxes on their overseas income. If I'm not mistaken, IT companies have a reduced tax rate in India. All in all, the 4pc should not be a big damper.

Champu,
I saw some of your suggestions in this thread. I need your suggestion on my case. I applied my 485 in July 2007 with an already approved eb3 I-140 (PD: May 2004). At that time, my 2nd EB2 I-140 was also in process but since I was not sure so I applied 485 with eb3 I-140. Later, I received my eb2 I -140 approved with the same PD of May 2004. Thus , I was able to capture my original PD (most difficult task!!). Since then, I and my lawyer have been sending letters to USCIS to interfile my eb2 140 with pending 485. We have not heard anything back from USCIS so far. I had opened congressional enquiry also and they also could not get answer from USCIS. But, congressman office told me that USCIS indicated that they will take most favorable 140 while adjudicating my case. They also suggested me to talk to them again when my pd is current based on eb2. Can u suggest as to what else can be done in this case? I appreciate your answer in this regard. Thanks for reading this long message.

This is a million dollars question on everybody's mind. Although the books says you can, I bet no body will take the risk.
Nobody can predict when July filer will get AP too.
There is a good chance I am taking this risk. But if there is any hope I will wait. Contrary to that if there is no hope I don't want to keep waiting until July next year for AP.

FP notice will come later.
If you send photos for EAD(paper filed I765) no need to have FP taken.
Only when you e-file I765, you will get a FP appointment.
BTW, what purpose do the fingerprints do on an EAD?

I came back last month from India via Frankfurt on Lufthansa. Airline does suck badly, but there is no need for transit visa if you got valid AP/visa stamp.
Folks - Amsterdam, Dubai, Brussels are the best way to go. 4 years back, I had problems with Lufthansa, I did not know I ahd to take transit visa and they never allowed me on flight and I had to travel the next day by going to german consulate in morning get visa and went back in afternoon, and surprisingly they had blocked me for that day. Until then, I always used to travel ONLY by lufthansa, but after that experience, I never wanted to. I always fly emirates and I like it.

My knowledge in this issue is limited, but looking at above posts, I have two things to tell you:
1. It may be possible to convert to EB2, clearly it is not easy and it takes time. EB3 clearly has a longer wait than EB2, but the conversion process takes time as well (even if everything is well in line, you are looking at 1.5-2 yrs at least).
2. Whether you convert to EB2 or not, chances are, you will be still in line till immigration reform comes and kicks in. Please participate in all efforts to make sure that there are some good provisions for legal immigrants in immigration reform. If all of our efforts work, you surely will get your greencard soon, whether you convert to EB2 or not.
Good Luck.

Isn't it a relief? if the officer calls you for interview, checks your documents and says approved but no GC till PD current? I can live happily with it for couple of years atleast without thinking of GC. The feeling of getting GC in future 100% is almost equal to having GC today. You can change jobs on AC21 without fear and use EAD and AP full force and forget about renewing H1b's
Exactly, I agree with you. I would love to get such an interview call. Atleast after that I will be sure that one day i will get the actual GC.:D

IV community is noting but you and me. IV is a friend. IV is there to help people.
Folks - one must also realize that talking to administration and getting things dione costs a lot of money through advocacy and IV needs a lot of money.
So please be generous enough to contribute to IV - we need a lot of funds in these times when we really needs help
I am not sure how many are there in a similar situation like me. I am pursuing CP and with CP one does not get EAD/AP. In today's economy, it is a nightmare not to have the protection of EAD.
Is there anyway IV can help people in CP queue? Issuing EAD for those CP filers who are already in the US on work VISA - is that even a possibility? I know it is not possible today. The underlying H1B can even be revoked upon issuing EAD. I am not sure about the number of beneficiaries should something like this happen.
Any thoughts?

My I485 is pending, recently I have changed my address online. I also recieved confirmation letters for this address change.
After 2 weeks of address change, USCIS issued an RFE. I have not yet received it, but I just want to prepare for this.
What could be the reason for this RFE? Is it common?
I have seen changing address triggered RFEs in some cases where an applicant moved out of state or even to a new city within the same state. In such cases, RFE was asking for proof of employment in the same or similar role.

I agree 100%. Only thing that we should be asking is our SSN money back when people in temporary visa leave US.
Are you guys nuts?
Which country in the world would lobby another country to take in its citizens? Why would India lobby America to give permanent residence to its highly skilled Indian citizens? So that America can benefit? This would be tantamount to treason.
You are not talking about H1B here. This is concerning Permanent Residence for eventual American citizenship. Think reasonably guys!

My suggestion is not to insult or hurt anybody. I understand the purpose of immigrationvoice. I am a contributor and will continue to support IV. However the way people hijack threads really pisses me off. The leaders of IV should figure out a better way to motivate people to donate. If people are not inclined then stop calling them names etc. I am not talking about anybody in particular. If somebody is not inclined it is not completely his/her fault. The coercive tactics some people use on the forum to make people donate actually does piss of a lot of people. I am nor talking about anybody in particular, but this is NOT the way to motivate people to contribute.
Sorry if I heart anybody feelings.
And I will donate to IV again..
I just check oxford dictionary to make sure whether I screwed somewhere but what I found is it was request to dollar500 from my side. It was not a advise. Rather you are advising me not to advise.. Is not it contradictory?
And if at all poster might have felt bad about my request s/he should have replied my post. Why on earth you wanted to jump in?

The D70 is said to be of better build quality than the digital Rebel. The image quality, for all practical intents and purposes, should be considered so close that it's not a concern in choosing one vs. the other. Of course, you pay $200 - $300 more for the D70, and you buy into the Nikon system (which some people have already written off as dead and jumped over to Canon), so that might be a disadvantage, depending on how you view the current camera market. Note that I own neither yet, shoot with a film SLR, but would buy a D70 if I could afford one... so take these statements with a few grains of salt. ;)
Also, consider that you'll be wanting large memory cards very quickly, if you don't have some already; if that must be factored into the budget, then the DRebel is the only one that fits within the limit you stated.

I have EAD for couple of years & when I moved to Ohio, I was issued 4 years DL. They did look at I-94 (I travelled on AP having one year validaty on I-94), also they DID NOT looked at my EAD expiry date..They asked very simple question - Do you have your SSN? Thats it..!
C'mon...Guys, come to Ohio..you will get DL for 4 years..
My DL was renewed for four years, much beyond my I-94 expiry, both the times...so guys, come on to CA...Golden land of jobs, good weather, cosmopolitan and accomdating/tolerant ppl of all races/religions :-). I am still on H1-B though..
