Hi,
On the USCIS website, it mentioned "normal processing time" in the following statement. I am wondering what is the normal processing time for I-485. I can't find it. When the published processing time is current for a case, how long it will take for a case to be approved?
My case suddenly becomes current for a month with the sudden forward movement of the processing time. I am wondering how long should I wait before I contact USCIS about my case if I do not hear anything from them.
When is name check initiated? When the case is received or when the case processing time becomes current?
Thanks!
---------From USCIS website---------
The processing times that we publish let you estimate how long it will take us to process cases filed before yours, and then process your case. However, every case is different and sometimes an individual case can take longer than average.
If you don't hear from us within the normal processing time, check for updated processing times on our website. If your case has a receipt number, use it to check on the status of your case at the same time. We recommend this action on your part because our notice may be on its way to you.
If at any point your case should become more than 30 days outside our normal processing time, and you haven't received a written decision or update from us within the last 60 days, you can help us by calling customer service and letting us know. We will research your case, see what needs to be done to get it processed, and get back to you with an explanation.

From my experience The people at the national center have no idea whats happening when compared to the guys at the specific centers. The national centers issues generic solutions. (Say fill a form and wait for 45 days. If after 45 days there is no answer they again send the form, etc) If you really want to know more or get proper action, the people at the specific centers will have to be contacted.
The old way to get to the specified center is back. Dont listen the messages, just press the order of the buttons and it will work.

2.What happens if our I485 gets approved before we get H4 stamp for our kid ?
3.What is the procedure these days to get H4 stamped on passport ?

The Conrad 30 J1 waiver program has been extended to September 09.
I believe IV core has been actively pursuing the Conrad 30 Improvement act. Can core please update us regarding the chances of this legislation passing in September 09 ?
Yes that is correct. IV core member Paskal has been leading this initiative from the front. He will provide an update. If you are part of the IV Physicians group, you may find more information from him.

Hi,
I need to renew my passport at the Indian Consulate in NY. I
have a couple of quick questions. It would be great if someone could
answer them for me.
(1) Do I need to leave my I-94 card in when I give them my
old passport? Is it OK if I remove it? Do they make a big deal of this?
(2) In the online form, what do I choose for the "Service Desired" field?
"Re-issue of passport"?
Best Regards,
Euclid

Samething happened to me. On 11/25/2007 i saw a LUD on my approved I-140 (which was approved in Dec, 2006). And then LUD on 12/06/2007 and 12/07/2007 on I-485 for both self and spouse.
Not sure what it could be?? I filed I-485/EAD/AP in late July, 2007. Have received EAD and have done finger printing. Have not received AP yet. Filing Center in Nebraska. My PD is October, 2005, EB3 ROW.

Hi,
1. I do not know.
2. Once your approval comes through, it will just be a regular H1-B transfer, so you should be able to carry the remaining of the 3 years on the H1-B.
3. As far as I know, your GC petition will not go with you and you'll have to start all over again. I believe, when you file your I-485 with EAD and it has been over 180 days, then you have your EAD and you can change your employer using AC21.
I am on my first H1 (3rd year) and filed for an extension recently. I received my notice a few days back.
Good luck,
SVS
PD: Dec 2007
I-140: Aug 2008
As always, do check with an attorney!

No its not true.
Please do not rely on Indian Media for immigration news.
They have covered their bases by putting "May" in the headline. "May" increase visas.
There is already a discussion that happened about this on another thread. Please search the forums for the article before starting a new thread.
And for heaven's sake, please dont look for immigration related news in Indian Newspapers. They dont know that congress has two chambers : House and Senate. And they dont know the common basics of legislative process in USA.

My wife came to USA in 2002 on H4.She changed from H4 to H1 in 2004 Nov.Since then she worked continuously till now (Jan 2009).Now she's planning to take a break and change back to H4.If she wants to work again sometime in future maybe after a couple of years will she come under quota?Does she have to apply for a new H1 or can she work the remaining 2 yrs left on her H1?We missed the bus and could not apply for 485 in July.
Thanks to any suggestions.
>> Now she's planning to take a break and change back to H4.
File for change of status to H4.
>> If she wants to work again sometime in future maybe after a couple of years will she come under quota?
Since she got H1 status first time in Nov 2004, she can have H1 transfer without quota only until Nov 2010. After that her H4-to-H1 will be subject to cap.

ComputerWorld (http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9142806/Court_orders_three_H_1B_sites_disabled) reports about a New Jersey judge that has ordered the shutdown of three H-1B opposition Web sites.
Middlesex County Superior Court Judge James Hurley ordered firms that register domains and provide hosting services -- GoDaddy Inc., Network Solutions, Comcast Cable Communications Inc. and DiscountASP.Net, to disable the three sites, ITgrunt.com, Endh1b.com, and Guestworkerfraud.com. Facebook Inc. was also ordered to disable ITgrunt's Facebook page.
The order was made in response to a libel lawsuit filed by IT services and consulting firm Apex Technology Group Inc., based in Edison, N.J. against the three Web sites opposing the H-1B visa program (http://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137085.html). Such attacks on H1B supporters increased last year as the economic situation was gloomy, and prospects for employment were not looking good. Yet, we all know that the H1B program is not the cause of all evil and in fact is a boosting factor in creation of new jobs and opportunities for American workers. Lets hope that the antis will take it easy in 2010, and focus on the real issues at stake.

I know that PERM labor gets expired if one does not file I-140 within 180 days of labor's approval date.
I am wondering if DOL has any procedure to revive expired approved/unused PERM by filing some sort of request/appeal or by paying some sort of fees etc. or if not ,then one files a new PERM by referring the old unused approved labor for the same job and same person then DOL can give an expedited approval.
Short answer is NO.
You have to file a new PERM and it will be processed in the existing processing times unless its a special handling case (University profs, etc) which currently is taking around 4 months to get a PERM approval.

E. EMPLOYMENT VISA AVAILABILITY
Item E of the May 2008 Visa Bulletin (number 118, volume VIII) indicated that many Employment cut-off dates had been advancing very rapidly, based on indications that the Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) would need to review a significantly larger pool of applicants than there were numbers available in order to maximize number use under the FY-2008 annual limits. That item also indicated that if the CIS projections proved to be incorrect, it would be necessary to adjust the cut-off dates during the final quarter of FY-2008. The CIS estimates have proven to be very high resulting in: 1) the �unavailability� of all Employment Third preference categories beginning in July, 2) the �unavailability� of numbers for China and India Employment Second preference adjustment of status cases during September, and 3) the establishment of many October Employment cut-off dates which are earlier than those which applied during FY-2008.
Little if any forward movement of the cut-off dates in most Employment categories is likely until the extent of the CIS backlog of old priority dates can be determined. It is estimated that the FY-2009 Employment-based annual limit will be very close to the 140,000 minimum.
