I heard that NSC is 45 days compliant in processing EAD. Is this true? I think it is not. Knowing NSC, it could take approximately 90 days +/- 30 days.

Please explain what is student status and 221g. You mean , if you are student of any intitute in US, while your I-140 is approved?
I was here on F1 first and then converted o H1. I went for a H1 stamping after about 5years. Student status refers to the status of the F1 visa. They usually track it using SEVIS. My bad luck since SEVIS was not up that day or my name was not showing up since I was a pre sevis grad enrollment. 221g is a document they hand out if they cannot issue a visa due to lack of documents or need to no further administrative processing like verify employer/status on a visa etc. You need to either appear again before the consulate or they get back to your later. My case was a nightmare and I dont plan to ever go back again to India period. Guys do your research on the web regarding 221g do travel plans accordingly!

This is my first contribution of $100 to IV as a new member. I urge my fellow members who have not yet contributed to do so and strengthen the efforts of the IV to get some relief for legal EB immigrants before congress adjourns. I hope IV will keep up their good work and more members will contribute. It could be any amount, please do so. This is our last chance to have something done. Believe me there wont me talk of immigration reform after the November elections until after 2008 elections.

I am not sure if this is that simple. There are no clear laws that state what would be the implication if:
Your I-140 on which you were granted an extension is revoked by your employer. This is quite possible if you are not working for that employer and the employer decided to go by the book. Most big employers would do it just as a prodedure. Some would do to subsitute the underlying labor.
I have heard various things in this regard some from lawyers too, and I haven't got a clear answer on it. This provision comes from AC-21 which fails to state the above condition. There were further directives (Yates memo etc) after AC-21 to clarify various situations, unfortunately this situation wasn't answered in any of them either.
If you draw parallels from extensions granted on Labor Certification, the H1B is valid till the end of duration as long as labor remains pending. If Labor is approved or denied or subsituted the underlying H1B status is quentionable. This could mean that the extension granted is not without strings attached. This is just my opinion.
If you have an approved I140 (does not matter which company whether former, curent or future employer), you can get a 3 year H1 extension. There is nothing your current employer can do. How ever, as the others suggested above, you should find you new job and transfer your H1 by using premium processing to be on the safe side. Also apply for new GC process which would allow you to port your priority date as long as your I140 is not revoked for froad/misrepresentation. There are certain rebates on this too.
If you are layed-off, there is nothing much to think. Just act quickly to get your 3 year extension and be optimistic.

Is it true that the reports for the medical check will take almost 4 weeks to come back?

just for comparison sakes...do remember that the distance from churchgate to virar (in bombay) is 35 km. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mumbai_Suburban_Railway.
That is equivalent of approx 22 miles. I doubt there is anybody is bombay that drives 35 km one way on a daily basis. But in the US living 10-20 miles from work is not bad. People in my office drive about 40 miles one way without blinking an eyelid. Some drive even more. Plus the cars that they have in india have smaller engines, smaller capacity thereby better gas mileage.
So for people who say gas is a non issue, think again.
Yes, thinking again, my opinion still remains the same. Gas prices in the US moved up from 25c a gallon in the late 60s to what it is now. No one stopped driving on account of that. Ditto with India.
I say, we will not see signifcant changes in the US lifestyle due to increasing gas prices. People will adapt and continue to do what they are doing. But this is theory and cannot be substantiated with evidence. Hence, I accept I could be wrong too.

Thank you gemini123 for the quick reply. I'm in Texas and have to get it renewed in Houston. I was talking to a broker who would get it done in about 10 days as I'm planning to travel to India next month.
He asked me to send the original pasport along with the I-94. That didn't seem right to me.
Should we also send a I-485 receipt copy?
Also, I have a expired visa in my passport but my H-1B is valid till May 2008. I'm planning to travel to India through Amsterdam and use my approved AP for reentering US. Would I need a tranist visa if I'm just chaging planes at the airport? Thanks!

Has anyone sent I-120 application to USCIS to get their I-94 extended?
What would be the basis for them to give extneded or issue a new I-94.
Should i send the copy of my passport with the visa stamping in it?

We have limited time and we have to achieve a lot. Our time and efforts should be utilized in a much better way, don't you agree? I appreciate your posting of your links. And what is your point? Include as a small comment or note at the top. It is easy for any one to 'google' conference, immigration and bill to come up with a few thousand good and relevant link. If I post a good number of them, one would definitely be lost.
Posting links should serve a purpose here. The primary purpose is achieving IV goals. A smaller purpose could be to see what the other side is saying, but my suggestion is to ignore them in general.
I went to both the links; one of the I understand is a Libertarian organization and the other radical left. As anyone can see, they don't represent the views of mainstream America. So, it is a waste of time and effort and above all a distraction here. That's my advice.

You can appeal quoting your friend got approved. I have seen in the past, people got their approvals in appeal.
You must consult a good attorney and go for appeal if you think your employer is willing to help and has the ability to pay, appeal is your best route or go for another job and reaply with your new employer.
Good Luck..

I saw that as well. Thanks for the pointer. On the form 129 Part 2, Question 4 it asks for prior receipt number. Would the current receipt number and the old I 94 suffice? I dont see her H1 being approved ahead of her H4 as there will be a deluge of applications on Apr 1st.

Congrats! I tried the same like you, so far INS didn't respond.
My PD 12/2001 - EB3
My wife's PD 12/204 -EB2
Filed cased independently back in 2007 (pre & post july fiasco). In september lawyer sent
a letter to INS with marriage certificate to adjudicate both the cases together. By september end INS promptly approved my wife's GC. When I spoke to INS over phone, they mentioned the letter is of no use, since my wife's case is approved.:confused:
Any suggestions how to proceed. Out of job now, moving on to EAD from H1 after 10 years!

One quick question: is this report publicly available, i.e. can we send it as is to the media, or are there any copyright etc issues?

Who r u to ask him to get lost??? Just becoz u have so many greens dozn't mean that u can rule the roost. Therez something called as freedom of speech and hez just using it. Its a free forum and u cant dictate terms here while u r a member here urself. Accept the truth and live with it. Whyz that some desis get so offended when someone rightly points out the dirty behavior of desi employers? He has a point and u need to respect that. And yes this is immigration related and causes awareness among the legal immigrant community. If that dozn't get into ur thick skull then God knows what doz. Maybe visa bulletin monitoring and RFEs and PDs???
Go on give me reds now...
Thank you.
I really see useless threads a ton here, some of them are opened by these guys. They might be helping this organization by donating some money , that does not mean they can dictate terms. I will say these guys motives will not help any one.

With so many people changing jobs using AC21, not only IO, everyone in USCIS will be aware of it. Let's discuss something other interesting topic rather when 180days start/end.
IOs will see your I-485, use some calculator/software to find out of 180days and then say pass/fail. End of the game.
:) true, a LOT of people are going to be getting very familiar with AC-21/AP/EAD.
Back when the July VB was first published, even the birth registrar in my hometown knew about the dates becoming current (when tons of parents all landed up in his office within a day or two, trying to get certificates for their children here :)
Airline folks who used to see a few APs here and there, are now going to be seeing a lot more people APs.
HR folks are going to be more familar with AC-21 and EAD...
