I have a few questions on using AP-
1. I have a valid AP till Jan. 04, 2009. I have applied for a new AP in Sept. last week. Can I travel on my current AP which is valid till Jan. 04, 2009 or will I have any problems with I-485, since I cannot travel on current AP, because I have applied for a new one.
2. Next, suppose I travel on my valid AP (the one till Jan. 04, 2009) in November first week and return on Dec. 10, 2008, what date will I get I-84 till? Will I get it till Dec. 09, 2009 or till Jan. 04, 2008. Ofcourse, the officer will stamp 'Parolee' on I-94, but till what date?
3. Have anyone had any bad experience, when boarding airlines at Indian airports, particularly Mumbai- Do they understand what AP documentation is, in lieu of the normal visa on passport?
Please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Renew you AP before Feb 25, 2009. You are usually paroled upto an year from the date of entry.
Yes you can file for AP your self, its as easy as filling out the form.
The stamps having nothing to do with the renewal.

i guess you could travel when an EAD/AP is pending, not sure.
But i don't think there's any way for you to get back into the country unless you have:-
1. h1/h4 visa stamped, or
2. approved AP (with the validity period of AP covering your return date)

anyone having inputs to the query below:
Adding to the scenario above, what if the old company (which got I-140 approval) agrees to continue the GC process? In that case, can't we apply for H1 extension with Company B using approved I-140 with Company A? After all, GC is a future employment application
In this scenario, you can apply for H1 extension with Company B using approved I140 of company A.

Logiclife,
That makes perfect sense.
My question is - Is it possible that all clauses related to illegal immigration will be striked off, while legal will go through? To my understanding, the main objective of this bill is to solve the issue of illegal immigration. Legal immigration is just an additional section.. My fear again is - will the whole bill be discarded just because of the contentious illegal immigration aspects in the bill?.. Is there a way to pass the legal immigration relief measures without a bill?.. something like an amendment to the existing law?
Thanks for taking the interest and posting the comment.
What you mean is change the content of the webfax,not the format.
Anyways, the current draft of Specter bill would lead to numbers flowing downward(unused numbers due to 7% or 10% per country limit). When they flow downwards from EB2, EB3 and EB4, they go to EB5 where there is no mention of per country limit(by omission).
You know what this means? After all the gains, the country limit on India and China will cause the overflow of all visa numbers to EB5(Unskilled labor, gardeners, cooks, maids) WHERE THERE IS NOT COUNTRY LIMIT and unlimited demand. And over there, in absence of no country limit, immigrants from Mexico will consume all EB5 unskilled numbers and there wont be anything like "UNUSED" numbers.(read the thread posted by STUCKLABOR for that analysis and legalese. : http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=241 )
Coming back to proposals of Specter, the idea that there is so much relief that we dont need to worry about this or that...here is the thing...Current markup is a proposal. Not even a final version of Judiciary committee markup. From there you lose some things when it goes to the full floor of senate and then A LOT OF THINGS when the hawks from the HOUSE of REPS like Tancredos and Smiths slither their tentacles on the Senate version in the CONFERENCE COMMITTEE. That's the reason we dont want to lose one thing even if we are gaining 10 things because those 10 things might be reduced to 2 by the time its negotiated in the conference committee between the house and the senate.
However, if you want to provide more input on this issue, you are most welcome to email Sandeep who is leading the content-prep team that writes these webfaxes and letters. His email is sandeep@immigrationvoice.org

I heard once you get your GC, you have to stay 6 months in US?
thats correct , india is booming right now and it will only go up
So i think that even if we succeed in getting the green card , we should always have one option to going back.

my wife's case was little different, Most of the time they(SSN office staff) don't know the procedure. It happned to my wife who entered US on H1B and we went to SSN office 3rd day after her arrival. The representative told us to wait 2 weeks and then apply as shw can't pull the data, we went very next day and told that we have called the office and they said there is no such rule to wait, the representative should accept your application immidiately. the lady took our application and guess what - less than 2 weeks we received SSN card for my wife.
My wife's H1 got approved & it is valid from October Ist. When she went to Social Security Office today 9/30 - they denied saying they can't pull up her information in their system (from INS) & hence they can't issue the SSN.
She was carrying her I-797 approval (along with I-94).
Anyone else faced a similar situation ? Any suggestions.

With the elimination of labor substitution, I am sure USCIS will investigate all existing labor substitution applications too. So if I were you I would not move to the new company before I-140 is approved.

Did you see approved on Jun 25th? In my case, I saw approved on Jun 28th and then pending on Jun 29th. My attorney received approval notice on Jun 28th. I dont know how to make sense of it.
What was the message in your case on Jun 26th? I am seeing that they received my application on Jun 29th and it is pending. It sounds strange.
Online case status shows approval on jUne 27th. But then does it really matter with all this talk of July retrogression?

US-India visa row overshadows Doha talks
By Alan Beattie in London and Jo Johnson in New Delhi
Published: May 17 2007 17:52 | Last updated: May 18 2007 03:23
Tentative signs of progress among the four core negotiating partners in the so-called �Doha round� of world trade talks have been overshadowed by a row over US visas given to Indian information technology workers.
Two days of negotiations between the US, the EU, India and Brazil began in Brussels on Thursday, as officials said talks had accelerated from the sluggish pace they have shown for most of this year.
But Kamal Nath, Indian trade minister, warned that US reluctance to allow Indian IT workers to enter the US on highly skilled �H1-B� visas jeopardised progress. Seeking to shift the emphasis away from India�s intransigence about exposing its farmers to international competition, Mr Nath said a failure to increase the H1-B quota would deny India the export gains it needed to make a deal.
Echoing language often used by the EU and the US, he told the FT on Wednesday: �We agree that the talks cannot move forward with agriculture alone. Our services interests must be satisfied for progress to be made.�
Delhi reacted angrily this week to a letter sent to Indian IT companies by two US senators, alleging fraud and abuse in the H1-B programme. Charles Grassley and Richard Durbin, members of the Senate subcommittee on immigration, said the visas were being used to undercut US workers with lower-paid foreign employees.
In a letter to Susan Schwab, US trade representative, seen by the FT, Mr Nath said that the approach, which was not made through the office of the US trade representative, was surprising and unwelcome.
�Such direct intervention by US senators would only create uncertainties in the minds of these companies and undermine business confidence, especially in the current negotiations on services,� the letter said.
So great is demand for H1B visas from Indian IT companies that this year�s quota of 65,000 was filled in a day. An Indian commerce ministry official said on Thursday that India wanted the annual cap lifted to 115,000.
A USTR spokesperson on Thursday declined to comment on either the senators� letter or the negotiations over visas in the Doha round.
Officials and ministers expressed some guarded optimism ahead of this week�s meetings of the four negotiating partners, though remained non-committal about the substance of talks. Ms Schwab said that some issues, including access to the agricultural markets of developing countries, a key demand of the US, had further to go than others.
The rest of the World Trade Organisation membership, among whom frustration with the �group of four� has been rising, has been trying to increase pressure on them to make the trade-offs necessary to achieve a framework agreement before the traditional WTO summer break in August. �They are moving, but whether they are moving fast enough is another question,� a trade official said.
Crawford Falconer, the New Zealand ambassador who chairs the farm talks, last week released the first of two papers setting out the terms for a possible deal.

I am no expert but here are a few suggestions.
Your visa expiry date will correspond to the duration of stay originally requested in your I-129 and stated in the approved Labor C.
However, once you enter the US your attorney will file to extend your visa and your visa will be extended for another 3 years duration from Sept 2010 (when the current one expires). After that 3 year expires you will be eligible for another 2 years + months that remains out of the total 6 years possible.
I dont feel that you have to worry too much. The only problem is you will only have an approval notice after the Sept 2010. Once you leave the US, to reenter you will need to go to any consulate to get the visa stamped.
Welcome to the "immigration maze". When you walk through you will see people stuck, directionless and hopeless. Try to give them a hand. Rarely you will come across people who are "very optimistic" for no obvious reason. Try to get some optimism from them to keep you energized. Best.

Hi,
I had one A# on my EAD (during OPT), as xxx-xxx-xxx, which was expired after OPT was end. Then, after I filed my I485 application, I obtained another A# showed on I-797C form, as Axxxxxxxxx. So I am quite comfused that which one is my current A#. Does A# change with our status? Thanks.
