Friends,
There used to be a number of threads created / discussed every day on IV... those good ol' days... a lot of good discussions on a variety of topics, including immigration:D
But of late I am seeing fewer threads on IV and wondering what could be the reason.
1. Either a lot of folks got greened and stopped visiting IV
2. or a lot of folks lost jobs & abandoned their GC process
3. or a lot of folks got frustrated and left for their home countries
Is this just me feeling this way or...?

My I-485/I-140 were filed on Jul 2, 2007 (I-140 approved in 9/2007). I possess an EAD valid till Sep 2010 and AP valid till Aug 2009. I lost my job (H1B) in late January. I have a family emergency compelling me to travel to India for a week (starting Saturday next week 04/04/2009). Will there be any problem in terms of using my AP to re-enter the U.S? An early reply would be appreciated. Thank You very much in advance.
P.S: I do not have a job yet.

I'm in the process about to use "AC21"
Original employer filed I40 under "electrical engineer" :: SOC Code 17-2071 (approved)
have EAD but never used.
Inside the job description there are entitled strong software background - job duties included programming and software development also. As a requirement a 3year of Software Engineering experience was entitled also.
Situation: Laid off, but received a job offer letter. BUT the position is "software engineer" job code is some 15-XXXX.
Detailed job description/duties will be the same;
Old employer/layer is not revoking anything, willing to help.
Will this stand if they request an EVL or later on the road?
According to my research they not strict about the job codes they more go by the job description and duties.
I'm sure lots of folks are in the same situation, please advice.

It's always good to have extra options in terms of work permit. We know that renewal is not cheap, but still safer to have the extra work permit and not solely depend on EAD.

I havn't gotten mine yet. Filed on Sept 11th at VSC. Check seems to have cleared though -according to the Attorney. However I guess the delay in my case is the exception rather than the rule.

The story goes some thing like this....
My labor was approved by Dallas BEC on 21st June'06 and my employer received a letter to that effect by end of June.
By July 25th my lawyer had everything else in place to file the I-140 but was yet to receive the stamped ETA forms from Dallas...so she concluded the approval was lost in mail. She sent the I-140 petition to nebraska on July 26th with a copy of the approval letter that my employer received along with a letter telling the orginal approval was lost in mail. The lawyer did finally receive the original approval in the first week of August (May be the postman took a scenic route :) ). The I-140 petition was forwarded to Texas under bi-specailization. I received an automated email from USCIS case notification that an RFE was issued on sept 1 but neither the lawyer nor my employer had received any RFE letter up until last Friday (sept 15) so I pressed her to find out more. She called the Texas service center and they told her 'The RFE was not for the employer' It was for the DOL...They sent a request to USCIS for a copy of labor approval and were waiting to hear back...
Now my questions:
1. I know you will say why not ask the lawyer to sent the approval she received in mail to USCIS and resolve the issue. I thought the same but lawyer thinks it will create additional confusion and advises we wait 4 more weeks to see if they decide on the case...if not..only then send the approved ETA forms. Do you think its a wise idea ?
2. Has any one else here gone through similar situation or know some one who did ? How long does it take for USCIS to receive a copy of labor from DOL ? Since Dallas is all electronic now..shouldn't it be as simple as forwarding a screen shot of ETA to the USCIS requesting officer ?
Since EB2 dates for India a retrogrogressed badly I am not in any particular hurry but it would be great if I can atleast get this 140 monkey off my back..Thankyou

Thanks fromnaija for quick reply..
I'll not stop my employer ( company 'A' ) to file H4 extension for her cause if her H1 thru company 'B' is not approved, my wife will be out of status...
Based on you reply,
all I can do is to request my employer to file H4 extn ASAP to avoid overlap with H1 filing...
If it cannot be done,
then I should pray that her H4 extension gets approved first......

Just to let everyone know if any of you encounter the same issue -
called up USCIS Customer Service and spoke to them about this error. They said to mention this in the Cover Letter (When I send the supporting docs) as a mistake that happened while filing the EAD and what the correct answer should be. They said it'll be then taken care of.
Am going to do accordingly!
Thanks
I did some what similar mistake and explained the same in Cover Letter while sending the supporting documents.
Got my approvals also.
Thanks,
Krishna

I entered US in 2001 on H1B and have not left the country since then. Unfortunately within few months of coming to US, I had a fight with my wife and was charged of domestic violence. This charge was later reduced and I was convicted of a simple battery.
Now if I travel overseas and come back on AP (I intend to use my approved AP instead of going for H1B stamping), can I be denied entry to US at port of entry because of my criminal charge?
Anyone in the same situation or know someone in this situation? Was there any issue in there re entry into US?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Child Protection Act is based on I-140 timing. If by the time of applying for I-140 your son got 21 then no-chance, it's not applicable. If not then some calculation is needed.
When did they apply for I-140. How old was your son at that time? When was it approved?

1. You can definitely change the employer and invoke AC21. No issues there..
2. You can change AOS to consular, but not after you've invoked AC21.
Actually there's probably a way to do that too , but maybe a good (and probably expensive) lawyer needs to be consulted.

Is there a time limit for one to travel on Advance Parole. I was told that if a person travels abroad and intends to enter using AP, the maximum time allowed is 6 weeks, is this true?

Hi,
I have recently received an RFE on my I-485 application asking me to provide receipt number or A number for my spouse and child as I have included them in my application. I don't know how to respond to this and need your help to provide a suitable response.
I didn�t submit I-485 application for my spouse and child as they were out of the country while i filed my mine. My family continues to live outside US while I'm here working on H1 and also have my approved labor (Feb24 2007) EAD (Nov11 2007) and I-140(Feb10 2009)
Question is how to respond to RFE as I can't provide A number or receipt number. Also as my spouse and child are born in a country where they still have visa numbers available, can I claim cross chargeability to my spouse country of birth as the visa numbers are not yet available for India for my Priority date.
As I have my chances of speedy processing with cross chargeability, how should I respond to RFE without I-485 filed for my family? Is it possible to ask for consular processing for my family with an intend FTJ? Please help me to answer in a way that would help my processing faster.
Regards

..Wadhwa,...Dalmia...all desi names. Well, Anderson Cooper is american. But what I mean is that the authors of such articles and studies are almost always Indian origin people.
While it serves well to have such studies out there, we need more white american people supporting this cause. And I stress WHITE amerrican.
Even though America was built on the backs of immigrants, all but a very few of them were white anglo-saxon people from western europe.

Hello everyone,
Please shed some light on this
I am going to a different Application Support Center than the one in my notice.
I am trying to locate the Application Support Center (ASC) close to where I live. Is there any information about the location of all the ASCs through out the country in the USCIS site?
If no how should I find/locate the nearest ASC to where I live?
The address of the ASC in my notice is in a different place. I want to go to the one that is near to where I live.
Thanks in Advance

This would be really difficult -- because labor ADs run for 30 days -- unless you can find a company has gone thru all pre-labor-filing process matching your exact skills ...
