Hi Guitar,
I too had the paralegal filled out wrong information in regard to my employment history. My lawyer said the same thing; once it is on ETA 9089, you could not really change anything.
In fact, you could not change it when you file I-140. The only thing you could do is to discuss with your lawyer about possible RFEs.
Last but not least, don't sweat it. Worrying won't change anything.
And as for my case, it was approved without any RFE request.
Good luck with your case.

Thanks for the suggestions. I called in the National Service Center and put in a request to expedite the case. Got an email that I can try to visit the local ASC and see if they can collect the biometric. We visited the local ASC today and the were kind enough to collect the Biometric. I hope we get the AP before the departure date..

1 &2 Yes you can, And your status will be EAD/adjustment of status.
IO can doubt about your intention is to do business or continue work
3) This is the best strategy and I have done that.
4) Pray to god !. Hopefully it shoudl be current in next 6 months
( May be in IV we can request a separate page for the intiatives/ventures by the immigrant community.
The current Ads/Merchantise is for MNCs who can pay big money and it may not be affordable for
the new ventures/start ups )

Hello
Thank you for your time and I appreciate your effort.
Scenario:
I have two Approved I-140s (both filed by same company).
� Filed I-140 & I-485 concurrently with a PD of Nov 2007 (Original Labor) - I-140 Approved and I-485 Pending
� Filed I-140 with PD March 2005 (Substitution Labor) - I-140 Approved.
Questions:
1. I would greatly appreciate if you can let me know what are my options and any relative information (Letter formats etc.)
2. Can Info-Pass work instead of writing to USCIS?

I'm seeking second opinion for my situation.
My H1b visa has been extended for another 3yrs and my current stamped visa expires sept 2010. I work for a typical consulting company with a client at end and a vendor in the middle. I've a clean record and have been paid always for last 3yrs, without a single month gap.
I'm visiting India in June for marriage so I wanted to go for the stamping as well. I've a situation where I'm looking for a second opinion.
What would you do if you were in my situation:
1. Go for visa stamping alone immediately after landing in India before marriage. Marriage is about 8-9 days after I land there. And, my spouse can go for H4 visa alone after marriage once marriage certificate is ready.
2. Go for visa stamping after marriage with spouse as well. But I'll have only 7-8 business days based on the latest dates available after marriage.
3. Don't go for stamping as I can return with a valid visa and I-797. My spouse can go alone after.
I'm tending towards #2 just because if I do get stuck for some reason, I doubt they will process my application within 2-3 weeks without needing to alter the travel plan when I go with #1. So, either #1 or #2, if I've a situation in stamping then I doubt anything will get settled just in 2-3 weeks.
I want to go with my wife just because I'll have one less work to get done and we can plan her transition from existing job.
What will you do given same situation? Any risk that you see?
I appreciate the thought. Please feel free to ask more information if appropriate for clarification of the situation.

I have exactly the same question.
If you look at VFS appointment scheduling if it is more than 1 year that your 797 was renewed and if you did not go for stamping they put you under different class of renewal.
You can check this by going to VFS appointment site and there they ask the question are you applying for the same class of visa that got expired 1 yr ago or something like that...
Can anyone shed some light on this. Since i am on the same boat like the person who asked this question.

Amitga,
Iam in a similar situation as Ihitha. Iam planning to go to Chennai in June for stamping. Which answer do you think would be a convincing one for that question asked by the VO ?
Also after changing from L1 to H1, i had my H1 transferred between 3 companies (i changed jobs within a span of 1 month), and the current employer iam working for, iam working for about 1 year and 3 months. When i go for stamping, would they be asking for paystubs from those two companies, or does it matter only with the latest company iam working for ?
It wouldd be great if someone can help me with some suggestions.

I am currently on H4 and it expires in a couple of months. I have my H1 approved for 2008 quota. My husband's H1 expires on sept 2007. we are applying for I-485 next month. Do i need to apply I-765 and I-131 because as per the instructions from my attorney it says the following:
-I-765 or EAD card. If you have valid H-1B valid more than one year and will not change job, you do not need EAD.
-i-131 or Advance Parole. If you have valid H-1 or H-4 visa stamping valid more than one year of if you are Canadian citizen, you do not need AP
Please clarify me whether I-765 and I-131 is required for our case.

Mmm.. here is a wrinkle scenario.. though it does not technically belong here...
I was overseas for a year (posted to another branch of the company, in another country, not my country of origin, for a year), just returned to US.
Would I be considered as "in US" all the time? And would I be considered to be "in US" for the time I was posted abroad?
The reason I'm asking is that given the way this is going with this legislation if if goes through, it might be better to be an "illegal" rather than legal. I see Zero talk about people in our situation (legal nomads).
Let us get to the bottom line.. is this legislation strategically really good for us? Is a "sneak" legislation better for us than a blanket amnesty which equates an illegal hedge pruner to a legal high skilled worker and makes no distinction?
Does it make more sense for us to have this legislation scuttled than face the prospect of seeing your friendly neighbourhood illegal plumber get on the gravy train while you wait and wait? (People like me would be waiting anyway even without this legislation)
I would really appreciate a strategic FAQ: What are we really fighting for here.. what are the likely compromises on the way..

Hi:
Maybe some of you can help me with my problem. I was directly hired to work in the US with two other colleagues. Our PD was April 04. We got our LC�s last year. My two friends and I applied for I-140 last December 2006. (same job, same employer sponsoring us). The two got their I-140 by June and were able to receive their GC courtesy of the July fiasco.
Last May 07, I was told that I was mailed an RFE. I never received it. As you may know, you can only follow this up after a month. Three phone calls (and months) and two faxes (two months) later, still no letter. My lawyer is at his wits� ends. The other day, he gets an appointment at a USCIS center near our area. He says this office �has no jurisdiction over my case� and that this was a long shot. An immigration officer looks at the computer system in the office and says that the system�s list of RFE cases does not include my name, and perhaps there was an error. Perhaps�
Has anybody heard of a similar case? My lawyer is now suggesting that I write a congressman for help. Do you think this will help?
My husband and I filed our I-485 + his EAD last July 19. Today we received acknowledgment receipts for both and a notice that we have to go thru FP next week. . Is this a positive sign , or does this mean nothing at all? I noticed that current PD for 3rd preference visas has rolled back to Aug 02. Can anyone hazard a guess as to how long we may reasonably have to wait for a GC? Or for my husband�s EAD?
Thanks.

Hi,
My EAD card was sent to my old address, which I failed to update in time. I have been following up with USCIS for more than a month, but haven't been able to receive the card or the approval notice so far. I have to start working on Monday (Aug 11th), so this is really urgent!!
I can join and submit the EAD card within 90 days (as per the I-9), but my employer needs to see the approval letter (something which proves to them that my EAD case has been approved).
I do have the following which indicate my approved status:
1. My online status used to show that the case was approved (it said that the card was mailed to me). Now it has changed and says that a new letter (not the EAD card) has been mailed, but I won't get this letter till after Aug. 11th, my joining date. I do have a printout of the previous status, though.
2. I managed to get a letter from my university saying that my case has been approved.
3. I have the receipt notice, which shows that the case was submitted and received by USCIS.
My company still insisted that they would need a letter from USCIS saying that my case has been approved. Any advice on what I can do from here??
many thanks!!

2. If salary, after GC, is lesser than mentioned during Labor stage, what problems will it cause for:
- GC renewal ?
- US citizenship ?
- OTHER problems (GC Cancelation, Deportation...)
3. What if, after GC, sponsoring employer gives termination letter with:
- NO reason ?
- reason stating bad economy ?
Please tell, for each case, what problems will it cause for:

You can use either the current edition of 06/05/2008 since that's the version on USCIS web site or use the older version until July 31, 2008. From August 1, 2008 you MUST use the 06/05/08 edition only. I am sure your doctor will have the older edition.
