Maybe your lawyer should jump into the well or go back to school ;)
She is probably already going to school (a paralegal) :)

I am using a labor substitution (dated 2005) that requires BS + 3 years. I had only 2 years experience by 2005. But I have an MS degree in related field. Would this be ok? Would MS+2 years suffice for a labor for BS + 3 years?
Please respond soon. I have prepared all my paperwork for I-140 and I-485 and meeting the lawyer tomorrow. I am planning to file by Monday. My stupid attorney told me only today that the experience mismatch can be a problem.
Thank you all in advance.
Sorry wrong time. Move on!. They gave 2 months time for this, But screwed up the VB big time.Now age old labors are flying and body shoppers are sending emails personally. Damn I received one of them 4 days back. Bas*8** doesn't leave much info. I did not had the time to follow up and get him nailed.

USCIS is sick of active IVian and they want them to suffer. These active IVian have PD earlier than 2006. I am one of them.
How come most of the 2006 PD holders getting approved? I do not have any grudge against who have 2006 PD and got their AOS approved. I am just wondering as to what is making USCIS to choose only 2006 PD ? Definitely, the low hanging fruits theory does not seem to be working here. Anybody has any idea about that ? I am just frustrated.

E filed both myself and spouse application 157 days before expiry of EAD. Received Receipt numbers immediately, since i e-filed. i did send in the documentary evidence supporting the case also.
Also received FP request, which i had to re-schedule twice(once for visit abroad, second on missing app. due to late arrival of notice). Finally got FP completed on third try.
However, i received email stating that an RFE has been send for both our applications. Still awaiting for the paper document.
Does this mean the application was accepted? Or Should i e-file once again instead of waiting on the outcome of this application as i am already a month late to expiration of EAD?
*********
RFE asked me to clarify my intend for applying for EAD (replacement or renewal). I replied that i had asked for renewal and that i was not aware of any limit on the date.
===================Update=====================
EAD Card recieved with 1 year extension from date of expiry of previous EAD.

If you have the ead card, the file #/card# will tell you which center was your EAD fiiled. To get an approximate date using the online case status search for the file number in the approximate range as yours. For Eg. if you card # is EAC 07 043 52343 - then the center is Vermont, Filed in Fisical year 07 ( Oct -06 - Sep 07) 043 is the 43rd working day in FY07 and 52343 is the case number.
Hope this helps.
I am filing for my EAD renewal and had a quick question...I have an EAD card from when I was in college and did my OPT. The problem though is that I do not have some of the details that they ask for while filing EAD renewal, such as what Center was it processed at & what was the application date.
I have already called USCIS & they cant pull up what center my EAD was filed at or the date it was filed. Can anyone suggest what I should do in this situation? What do I put in the form? Does anyone have similar experiences?

For any new comprehensive immigration reform, we must push for the Ability to be able to file for EAD after labor rather than having to wait for I-140 approval.
Do anybody know if any of the proposed bills have this provision? We must get together to push for this in the final bill as this doesn't harm anybody.
Thanks,
WaldenPond
I do not think any of the proposed bills push for I-485 filing after the Labor Cert itself. This has not been proposed because I-140 approval is not an issue right now. It is being approved as fast as one month these days. But I see no harm in asking for it. Let us reach for the moon and see what we get :)

Copy of 485 receipt
Copy Front and back of current EAD
Photos with A# and name in the back (With Pencil/Felt Pen)
Check for 340 Payable to US Department of Homeland Security" (with A#/Name in the memo section) -- Separate checks
Thanks for encouragement,
It's always scary the first time. : )
Re. Check caching - just FYI, now-a-days, they copy the check, convert it to EFT and destroy the original so getting case number from copy may not work.
Also do I write A# on back of photos or something else? Any idea if there are restrictions for using pen or pencil or such?
thanks again,
NS

But using AC21 without having I-140 approved is big risk..u never know how the X emplyer might treat communication with USCICS with RFE is received.
I am presuming many r in a situation where they ahve i-140 pending and 485 filed.

One anonymous user commenting against other anonymous user is hardly of any consequence. To come to IV or not come to IV is your decision. Remember IV is not about forum or red dots or green dots. It is a platform for everyone to meet and work towards fixing the system. If a person is committed to the cause, he would not be bothered by any distraction.

Thanks for bringing his true nature in to limelight and americans will realize from this. This hypocrite always boasts himself as monk and tries to fool American people with covering his inner character.
This stinky ba%^#@rd speaks loud and confuses American people a lot with out giving the clear picture of broken legal immigration and with out mentioning the pain of long waiting legal immigrants. He always mixes legal with illegals and confuses all with his border protection preachings and with out respecting business immigration.

I have read many threads that discusses the pros and cons of using EAD over H1 and the common benefit that everyone mentions is that the salary is usually better for a person on an EAD. I spoke to several people who've started using their EAD and realized that even though it opened up opportunities with companies that do not have a policy of sponsoring H1, it DID NOT give them a boost in the salary.
My question is how do people intend to leverage on having an EAD for a higher salary?
Thanks!
EAD gives you more negotiation power. Most companies are willing to negotiate on one or two things while making an offer e.g. salary, bonus, vacation, H1B/GC etc. If you take out H1B/GC out of that mix, chances of negotiating on salary are higher.

Can you guys think of an Immigration Voice jingle. A tune that is catchy.
IV members who have an eye for lyrics and music lets see what you got.
Let me try:
************************************************
"Immigration Voice, Immigration Voice, Immigration Voice Rocks!
When dark clouds of labor backlog envelops my domain
Immigration Voice is one sure place that can help my spirits regain
Lot of questions and a long wait for my green card
Immigration Voice is where I get sage advise from the bard
Waiting in vain for the FBI name check, years wasted in pain and my career is a ship wreck.
In the dark storm, one shining light, like minded people who share my plight
One day I will wake up from this nightmare,
I am sure of the success, I sometimes wonder why don't the lawmakers give this cause the care
One day soon, I will become a proud story,
One more American dream, till then Immigration Voice makes me forget my worry
I feared that I just couldn't cope, but wait, I listen to the voice of encouragement,
Silver lining on a dark cloud, one single ray of hope
Immigration Voice, Immigration Voice, Immigration Voice Rocks!
***********************************************
Please improve
Cheers!

We filed for 485 in 2007 july fiasco... and so far, we never received FPs for me or my wife..
my lawyer called the TSC a couple of times, and I called at least 3 times, and all the time, they say it is fine, and they will contact me if they need anything. We got our EADs and APs renewed as well, but never received FPs...
Every time I contacted them and explained the problem, they would open up a case to investigate and they send us letters a couple of months later saying my application is within the current processing times...
I am hoping this is only normal, and there are others out there in the same boat as mine...
Am I wrong in assuming so? Let me know if there is anything I should do?

Thought this is a good study and makes some valid points. I am not sure how receptive the US legislators and audience are to articles like this. At this time, there is actually no doubt in my mind that more liberal immigration policies will help the domestic economy, by boosting everything from home and car purchases, to savings rates, entrepreneurship, raise the bar on hard work, and many more intangibles. However at this time much of this seems counter intuitive to joe public, and hence won't happen.
I really worry for this country over the next decade if they can't set this right in the next 12-18 months. We just might be witnessing a fall in US economic credibility. Absent improvement and continuation of current spending and borrowing policies, we will see a US Sovereign debt downgrade by S&P/Moodys/Fitch and then all hell could break lose. Hey if we see this as possible with GE, why not the US Gov't in 18mths. I still think it unlikely, but no longer can count it out.

Technology and money do not matter. But the job role and responsibilities matter.
You need a good attorney who will accompany you to the interview if you are not clear about the job role match.
