7th year extension was instituted as part of AC21 - which was a major immigration package backed by the tech industry (somewhat like SKIL) including the provision to increase H1-B quota to 195K. Point being unless there is some powerful godfather for such a bill - whether it is big business or the pro-illegal alien lobby , congress is not going to prioritize some piecemeal legislation just to give us relief. Right now the tech industry is pushing hard for SKIL while the illegal alien lobby is pushing hard for CIR. Our best hope is to ride either of these bills .. and I am sure core team is always on the lookout for any other bills that we can possibly hitch on to. Just that its not all that easy to do.
I think it was Collin Powell that help passed the 7th year extension and one year extensions there on if LC is pending for a year..this was passed since there was a crisis with delay in LC adjudications....so we are at a point that we need such a relief soon...we are heading towards such a crisis point..soon...

Thanks, But how would I know the case number? Because it was filed by my company and I dont have any clue.
Hmmm that makes it a little difficult. All you have to go by is the employer name then. Hopefully not too many people applied at the same time as you with the same employer. In my case, My company had provided me the case number to track the case soon after applying (before approval) but in any case, mine was the only LC they had applied for (they are a small medical device research company), so I did not have trouble.
Also do you think there is any value in at least getting total number of LCs certified, by date and then basing our assumptions by proportioning how much each category is retrogressed? If we can actually get the real number and then making certain assumptions might still be more realistic than now when we dont know anything about how many LCs are in the queue. We might as well assume that those whose prority date is on or earlier than the certified date are approved (even if they are not) because they should be getting approved in a few months time. Especially EB3-I as I dont see rampant jumps in the priority date, you know what I mean?
That is certainly doable. I am not a programmer per se myself, but have diddled enough in databases to try and take a crack at it. I will see if I can find the time to do this.

You are correct but I think I am not sure if one can change employer (H1B Transfer) during that 3 Year extended H1B period after 485 denial.
Total BS and Incorrect.
One can work on current H-1B (irrespective on basis it was approved), until the H-1B petition is revoked or canceled or expired. However, beneficiary is not eligible for new/extension of H-1B after I-485 denial.

I don't think so. Atleast for E-filed applications, there are no instructions to send photo's. I did not send photos's last two times and had EAD approved.
You definitely need to send it even if you get BIOMETERICS

Hello Everybody,
Due to budget restrictions, I may be getting laid off from my company soon. I have filed for I-485 and have received EAD. I am currently on H1B. I have a citizen friend who runs his own company. He has no employees. He does pretty much all work by him self or get it done by hiring outsouced help whenever needed. He has a legitimate company - but he does not have big revenue (May be 100K/ year). Would it be okay if I join his company on EAD to get my GC going or should I look for a firm that employs lot of people and has sizable revenues. What (if any) are any risks?
Thank you.
Some scenarios to consider
1. If 140 is approved and its been 6 months since date of 485 application and your company who sponsored is not revoking 140, then ability to pay might not matter and you don't care since you can use AC21
2. If 140 is approved and it has not been 6 months since 485 application date and you are on good terms with and your employer is not going to revoke your 140 , take an unpaid vacation to fill the 6 months gap if you can, then you are still safe to use AC21.
3. If your 140 is not approved but you have passed the 180 days litmus test and you use AC21 to move to another employer then the ability to pay might come in to picture if any RFE is done by USCIS.
4. If 140 is not approved and you have not passed 180 days its a variation of the 2nd case and if you can pull it off you can use AC21 and work elsewhere later.
there might be other scenarios but consider each of them carefully before making the decision. While it might seem a simple decision having come so far in your journey you don't want to make as wrong decision only to rue it.
- good luck

Hello All,
just wanted to share my Finger Printing Experience.
I am july 2nd filer, EB2.
NSC -CSC - NSC case.
Got my FP done today,
however I noticed that on my ASC notice, my SSN has been printed incorrectly.
I called USCIS and made the correction.
I was surprised & furious at the same time, by seeing this mistake from USCIS.
Their system is so bad, they are not even verifying the Name to the corresponding SSN. Had I missed to notice, I would have been stuck either at FBI name check or by a querry from USCIS later for a long long time.
Already the wait is long enough.
Anyways, dont relax just seeing your EADs and APs, watch every detail on whatever they send.
Regards
CSE
Did you ever file a Service Request for your FP?

Yes if you look at cnn-ibn you may see such a heading .. but there are thousands of vernacular language media that 90% of its population read everyday and even completely indian English media which is celebrating Diwali just the way they should. Yes foreign investments are there but they are not as big as they are made out to be . If Citibank would like to invest today whom will it invest with - GM or Tata Motors? Money is just something that change hands and flows where there is the greatest potential.India has her strengths and it will beat the odds.

Do you have your I-140 approved and if yes, have you passed 180 days since you filed your I-485? If answer to both the response is yes, then nothing to worry about as you can simply work on EAD.
If you are still considering transfering H1-B, start looking for a company immediately. Small India companies who do H1 transfer can be little helpful in your scenario but watch out for crooks.
Dear members,
I am on H1B with I-485 Pending and i have layoff coming. I have Approved EAD but i haven't used it. How much time I have to find another job without loosing H1B Status?
I appreciate your help

chandu, I agree with you. They definitely don't deserve flowers. They deserve a pile of **** - you know what. Although I did send flowers as per IV's directive I am not Gandhian. I think Gandhian philosophy only works in movies and books. Although this is very controversial and I might invite the wrath of many on this board - but hey I am entitled to my opinion :D - Peace

It certainly seems like the RFE rate for supportive evidence has increased recently. Certainly for the 140 cases but also for other petitions as well. I had never received an RFE before, but recently got 2 for different petitions. An RFE always makes you a little antsy no matter how routine it is.
We are also hearing about PERM audits higher and denials also more frequently.
So far the RFEs seem to be for the common issues, like ability to pay, education qualifications etc.
It might be a good idea for someone to compile a list of typical RFEs at various stages. The rest of us can start adding for the benefit of those who get one in the future. In fact it might have been done already. I remember Logiclife putting something together during that 485 filing time in July/Aug.

Our strategic Counsel, Quinn Gillespie & Associates (QGA) has begun setting up meetings for us with lawmakers and congressional staff in a big way.
Three of our volunteers are in Washington DC this week. Yesterday, we met with Chief Counsel of the House Sub Committee on Immigration and also California Congresswoman Zoe Logfren's Senior Aide and get the House view on Comprehensive Immigration Bill. We were also interviewed by Kate Ackley, Reporter for Roll Call (http://www.rollcall.com/). Roll Call is THE newspaper read by lawmakers and their staff and the best way for us to get the message to them.
Today they have already been to White House and spoken to senior people to get the Administration's view on immigration. They have 2 more meeting for the day.
They have another full day on Friday and Monday also, when they will be meeting with 3-4 Senator's staff on each day. All these senator's are high powered senators who will be able to very much further our cause.
More details of these meeting will follow shortly, when they are able to get a breather from all those meetings.
To maintain this kind of excellent service provided by QGA, we urge our members to please contribute monetarily to IV.

This date movement could also be to silence amendments like Cantwell's which are based on Backlogs. A parallel GC system to Point based was called a poison pill by Sen. Kyl. I guess may be this is a way to lock up one of those pills. Could be Chertoff's trick to mine-sweep the path for CIR.

EB1-B or EB-2 is more suitable for me?
what bothers me is that I am not cited in the literature yet and I do not have awards.
Thanks,
John
You won't get a definite answer because its not a point based system. I think EB2 NIW is easier and current for Egypt so go for that. USCIS lists the criteria (at least 3 I think) that you must satisfy. If not then not much you can do.
Good luck!

Indeed, what an ironic day... we have two headline news items concerning Indian Americans...
The Good: A 35 year old Indian American is tapped to head the $700B bailout fund...
The Ugly: A family of 6 dies in LA in a murder-suicide ...
What does this say?
Neel Kashkari, Kashkari, an Indian-American who was born in Ohio, is one more example of how Paulson has drawn on former executives at Goldman to staff Treasury. Paulson also leans heavily on former Goldman Sachs executives Dan Jester, a financial institutions banker, and Steve Shafran, who focused on corporate restructuring while at Goldman

Reddog,
Smart.
It should be how many non-citizen children.
But you both missed one more applicant, the spouse.
The question should be,
Are you married and if so, how many children you have who are non-citizens. We do hope most of them should be unmarried:D.
Am I smart too..
:)
Sri.
Well the smart question would simply be a multiple choice
How many derivate/dependent applications filed along with your I-485 applications?
a) 1 (just spouse)
b) 2 (spouse + kid)
c) 3 (spouse + 2 kids)
4) I should get vasectomy
Peace. :)
