Sir with High Regard,
My request is that if you are starting something like personal discussion then
Please don't put message which look like something is confirmed like your topic “Secret news! Per country limit would be removed”.
this sense like something confirmed and people will come and read.
don't feel bad if people are pointing you for something good for everybody.
Thanks with high regard again :)
it still comes up with the old title. Pls read my first post with the correct title.
you can ask the admin to fix the issue.

How is it that a question about the Bible raises so much feedback, whereas a question like "Have you ever climbed Mount Everest?" would have little or no affect.
After voting for it, I posted because I thought it didn't really have any place here, especially because of his apparent intent and implication (confirmed by viewing his other work). Seemed out of place on this secular site.

I wouldn't care to much if they steamline the process and make all EB categories "Current". If you submit the right documentation these days i-140 does not take more than an month.
But if the retrogression is like this then as well a retrogressed person does not care as in any case he cannot file together. The only people who are affected is the people who are eligible to apply for both with the PD as current. But how many people are there now in that frame of benefit.
So I really feel it should not bother us too much especially people from India. If I am wrong correct me.

one GC for each family (3 or 4) members, instead of treating as multiple GC's.
say for a family of 4 uscis is treating it as 4 GC instead they can treat this as a single GC. which will make many people eligible for GC

Bummer is a word used to express disappointment.
He was not name calling. It takes a while to pick up the slang but it sure helps you to assimilate better.
And, if you were already familiar, before you go on a tirade on me, please hold your horses..

If IV is successful with this 485 filing ability by 2/15 deadline thing... when does it become law and more importantly how soon can we file for 485 (before or after the CIR wars in Mach-September)?
By the way any idea, which bill this provision will be part of? and wen is it getting tabled?

Guys,
Finally my problem and my questions are solved.
I drove up to the Canadian Border near Niagara Falls (Buffalo), they Canaidan Border Officials took my I-94. I took a drive in canada for 10 minutes. I even stopped at spot to view the Niagara Falls from Canadian side and drove back into US. I was issued a new I-94 with out any additional interogation.
What surprised me was my Canadian Visa expired on 09/01/2007 and i was still allowed to enter into Canada.
Anyways Thank you guys for all your responses.
I am kind of relieved related to my issue related to I-94.
GC_DREAMER_485
Good it all worked out for you. I am sure they stamped your passport on the way back into USA. Just keep track of your intrnational travel at some point it might be required, you might loose track of them if you don't have exit or entry stamps on your passport.
Good luck,

Thanks for your response ...
I am told that my status will expire whenmy latest I-94 expires .. I had been out of the country after i recieved my latest H1B so technically my I-94 will expire on 16th-sep-2007 ...
My question is what will be one's status after filing I485?
For adjustment of status you should be in a Valid H1. If you get your EAD before Setp 16th then you can use this to work and you are safe. If you dont get EAD you are basically out of status. So I suggest get your H1 Renewed Right away using Premium or regular processing.
Again this is my analysis check with your lawyer.

I have question on comments from Kumar1
If 485 is denied does it mean your 140 approval is no longer valid?
I was always under the impression that I140 is a petition for immigration filed by the employer for the beneficiary while 485 is adjustment of status filed by the beneficiary on his/her own behalf.
If 140 approval does not remain valid then I agree with Kumar1 but if 140 remains valid then I guess the renewed H1B also should be valid as it is renewed on the basis of approved 140.
Can anyone throw some light on this?.... senior members..gurus..??
H1B extension beyond 6years is based on AOS Pending status ( you may have i-140 not approved yet ? ) ,

Please explain what is student status and 221g. You mean , if you are student of any intitute in US, while your I-140 is approved?
I was here on F1 first and then converted o H1. I went for a H1 stamping after about 5years. Student status refers to the status of the F1 visa. They usually track it using SEVIS. My bad luck since SEVIS was not up that day or my name was not showing up since I was a pre sevis grad enrollment. 221g is a document they hand out if they cannot issue a visa due to lack of documents or need to no further administrative processing like verify employer/status on a visa etc. You need to either appear again before the consulate or they get back to your later. My case was a nightmare and I dont plan to ever go back again to India period. Guys do your research on the web regarding 221g do travel plans accordingly!

Sounds good!
"In simple English, the bill would eliminate the annual green card lottery and give the 55,000 green cards each year to foreign-born graduates of U.S. universities with advanced degrees in the sciences or in medicine.
With the employment-based second preference category (EB-2) backlogged for many years for persons born in India and mainland China, our country would benefit greatly if 55,000 more green cards were available annually for highly-educated people."
--------------------------------------------------------------------
However the bill would also benefit EB3, as the numbers will roll down from EB2. Not a bad deal, as it would reduce everyone's stress.

Hello -
As a Primary Applicant my GC was approved (EB-1) but for my wife's application I got an RFE. RFE - USCIS is asking for a VALID wedding certificate showing proof of a hindu wedding under hindu act (dont ask what I was doing or what my lawyer was doing while submitting 485)
Now I have about 28 days (total is 30) to respond to it. I have not rcvd. my GC but it has been approved and has been sent to production. My lawyer told me that as my GC has been approved my VISA is not good anymore. My wife was on dependent visa and so is my kid.
Now as my GC got approved.......my visa got cancelled...........my wife's & kids visa is invalid.............and we did not file for Advance Parole so we cant travel. On top of all this we dont have a wedding certificate.
Any suggestion to address this situation? I cant get a certificate without going back to India and I cant leave the country as If I do so I wont get to enter the country again. Even if somehow (on some legal basis) I can re enter I dont think my wife and kid will be able to re enter US.
If I dont produce evidence then my wife's application will be rejected putting her out of status.............gosh what a mess.....
ANY SUGGESTIONS FROM ANYONE WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED. Murali please respond with any possibility which I can explore upon.
Thanks
My sympathies to you.
However I don't understand how your wife and kids got depedendant visa. I don' think one can get a H4 or L2 visas with out marriage certificate first place, unless your wife came here on F1 visa here.
Anyway, You can apply marriage certificate with Indian Consulate. You may want to visit there with wedding pictures and passport there to get your certificate

You should have done this at least 6 months before your I-94 expiry date so that you could have used automatic Visa revalidation to reenter US after which you could have handed over your I-94 and left Canada by plane.
Now that you're running out of options, my suggestion is that you leave US by plane and find alternatives to transport your car. This is a surefire way to get your records updated.
Don't even bother about following up with attorneys or mailing the documents to "ACS - CBP SBU" as it's all time consuming and complicated. If the CBP didn’t update their records due to whatever reason, then the onus is on you to prove that you didn’t overstay your I-94.

hi Pdnov2005,
i was talking bout pdfs in the begining of this thread that talked bout some congressional documents requesting higher H1 quotas for fiscal yr 2008 and 2009
:) infact if quota is increased and duplicates eliminated, it ensures complete usage of the new quota (if any )

Also, If they have really mentioned INS, I bet they don't even know what AOS or pending I-485 is, because agency INS is no longer there but your wife's international office officials mind is still stuck in 2002.
I need urgent advice from you. As you know my wife is on F1 visa and completed most of her credit hours needed by school. She has get only 1 credit hr to complete the course. However, that�s below 9 hr full time student status. She has been asked to register for additional 8 hrs..and pay tuition fee accordingly ( > 8K). Which I think is unreasonable. They told her that if she doesn�t register by tomorrow they have to report it to INS. She told them that she has EAD..there answer doesn�t matter in order to remain in school and F1 visa she has to register.
My questions is:
1) Can she continue working on her Thesis on her EAD and AP ?
2) What will happen to her f1 if she use EAD
In response to these questions my Lawyer said
1.) yes, she can continue to be a student as an adjustment applicant � she can work using the EAD and travel using the AP.
2) she is basically no longer an F-1 because she has demonstrated immigrant intent by filing the adjustment. Which is fine � she has valid legal status as an adjustment applicant and can work with the EAD and travel with the AP.
What do pro�s think..:)
