my wife is US citizen , applied for permanent residency (green card) almost 6 months back , my interview was 2 days back, everything went thru alrite, the immigration officer said at the end of interview , " your case been aproved, but we did not get the background chk from FBI , as soon as we get it we are going to mail you the green card "
is this normal? i checked "case status' on USCIS website, they still have some update from 4 months back ...
plz help, hope i posted in the right sub-forum this time..
I have a friend who is stuck in background check for 2+ years (same situation, a spouse of a US citizen). Hope it won't happen to you! Not much you can do now, just wait. If you do not get any response within a year, consider suing the USCIS (that's what my friend is doing).

Sorry to hijack your thread but I didnt want to start multiple threads on the same issue, along similar lines where can I find the actual law on H1B portability on I 140.
I have a offer but the immigration dept of the company says it cannot be done so I need to send them some documentation.
thanks

If you overstayed more than 180 days will trigger a ban. Apply for a visa, or try to find out from CBP or your local consulate or embassy, to find out the ban period. May be 3 or 10 years. You can appeal for ban waiver. Tell the truth at consulate, if not the ban will be greater.

I happened to look at my EAD today, when I was looking into what my next steps are for my marriage immigration process, and I noticed it expired long before my Permanent Resident Card. Erroneously I thought the two were tied together, since I applied for both under the same auspices. Now I am very worried. 1) I have been employed the whole time and 2) I cannot afford to be unemployed. What do I do?

My question is regarding Citizenship. My mother married my step father in the year 2000. They have 2 children one is 7 the other is 9. My mother did not adjust her status right after they married. she waited a few years. She received her green card on November of 2006. "the one that renews every 10 years. This year she separated him because she cheated on her. They are not legally separated or anything like that. She wants to become a US Citizen but we think it might be a problem since this year they did not file taxes together. When she did her taxes she checked the box that says shes filing married but separately. He does not want the divorce but she does. I told her she should hold of on any divorce and see about getting her citizenship first. What complications can she have since this year they did not file jointly. I appreciate your time and any input

Thanks amitjoey .
I140 is already approved Was just waiting for 180 days to finish . So in this time of recession waiting for employer to find a project(corp to corp) or should i accept the offer and wait till i get the EAD to start work .
You absolutely have to wait till the EAD IS approved. Who knows, how long it will take for the EAD CARD?. You applied just 2 weeks back, it could be 2-3 months. Could you wait that long? can your new employer wait that long after you accept the offer?. Your new employer could apply H1 for you. That could be much faster, since you only have to wait for the receipt. (2-3 weeks).
To be able to work, you need either an H1 or an approved EAD

One more day gone. A few more to go. Really what more can you do ? You can't do beyond a point. The best suggestion would be to get more PEOPLE knowledgeable about this issue.
The other day I came across one of my acquaintences who is doing pretty good in his area, who came to the US in the mid 70's.We were discussing about things happening in our community, I casually mentoned to him about the Legal immigration issue and he was surprised to hear the EXISTENCE of these issues. That surprises me that so many Indians, who have migrated to the US over past 30 years are either unaware of these issues or just want nothing to do with it. But I'm sure there is a sizeable number who would want to chip in the cause.
Get in touch with people you know and tell them to send faxes to respective senators, call or just support the cause.
MODERATORS: Can u make the WebFax area non-user area, many dont want to register, but are willing to send Faxes etc.NumbersUSA dosent need u to register.

Kapoor made many good points very clearly! A very good job indeed.
I hope many more newspapers and magazines will deal with this story as well.

Hi,
Should I go to Canada or Mexico and re-enter US with EAD/AP before my AP expires to start working on EAD and avoid any "out of status" issues ?
Does Canada Mexico ask for valid VISA and I-94 to get a visitor visa?
Should I go to India(my home country) and re-enter US before my AP expires to keep my status ?
It doesn't seem to me that you need to leave the US at all. You are authorized to stay here because you have a 485 pending. You can work using your EAD. The company should have reverified your I-9 form when the H-1B expired, assuming that you showed the H-1B paperwork to complete the I-9. However, since you have an EAD, you were not working without authorization.
However, you have a lawyer who has reviewed all your paperwork and presumably s/he knows something that I don't.
Whatever you do, you should NOT try to enter the US as a visitor when you really want to work here and be a permanent resident. That would be fraud.

Create your rectangle with the rectangle tool. Make sure you rasterize the layer first (right click on the layer with the rectangle and choose rasterize).
Now hold CTRL and click on the layer with the retangle. This will select the rectangle. Now go to Edit/Stroke.
Mess with the settings in there and voila, you have a black border around your square.

Just curious.
Who played what role in the reversal of USCIS/DOS decision?
Did IV core / AILA / Congresswoman Lofgren worked together in the back ground? Flower campaign / SJ rally / media - newspaper articles ?
May be all of the above had its unique impact on USCIS's decision to accept I-485?
Below article is just one example. There are many like this which mention about IV. IV hired a lobbying firm and work with different people for lobbying efforts. But the whole effort was lead by IV.

We are very busy these days trying to beat the H1B (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html) rush. While we fell that visas will not run out on April 1, 2010, clients are anxious to get their cases out the door. We promise to deliver.
Here are some tips that may help our last minute filers. The issue today is a degree that has not yet been awarded. In the past, the USCIS has approved H-1B petitions (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html)for aliens seeking one of the 20,000 H-1B visas available to aliens who have earned master�s or higher degrees from U.S. institutions of higher education, where the alien has completed all requirements for the degree, and hence, has �earned� the degree, but the degree has not been conferred.
There is no reason to believe that USCIS will not continue that practice, so long as there is evidence that the alien has completed all requirements from an official at the educational institution qualified to provide that information. In the past, satisfactory evidence often was in the form of a letter from an official such as a Dean, Registrar, or department head, stating that all requirements have been satisfied and that the alien is simply waiting for the ceremonial conferral of the degree.
Be wary of letters prepared by unauthorized employees at the school stating that the student has completed all requirements toward a master�s degree, when in fact there are still examinations or papers to complete. USCIS is likely to question a letter that comes from a lower-level employee of the university. Be mindful also that use of such documentation when the student has not completed the program may be considered fraud. Also, use of such a document may result in the loss of the client�s chance at a slot in the U.S. master�s graduate quota since the petition likely would be denied on the basis of ineligibility at the time of filing.
More tips in later posts, good luck filing the H1's tomorrow.
