Got a BIG RFE for 7th yr extension from CSC PP.
I have applied for 485 (I140 approved), and have EAD/AP from same employer last yr.
I got this RFE and employer may not have/provide all the documents,
My question is can we withdraw H1 and then work on EAD?
Will that adversely affect my case for AOS?
Main list of items required from me,
Last 3 yrs W2, last 3 yr taxes, all i-94 etc. -- No biggie since I have always been working for big company for past 10 yrs. till In switched to this smaller firm last yr.
Main list of docs required from company
1. Offer letter to me.
2. Client letters
3. Last 3 yrs quarterly wage reports with ALL employees SSNs, pays etc.!
4. Last 3 yrs Tax returns
5. Last 3 yrs W2s and W3s for ALL employees
How in the world is one supposed to provide all those ??!! I spoke to the employer, he's very busy (not desi but still a small firm with 1-2 million turnover and maybe 4-500,000 income..)
I can even change employer if needed, but I need to know if it's okay to cancel or withdraw this application of H1B and if that will cause USCIS to reopen my approved I140 or issue RFE for same list of docs at the time I file AC21.
What should I do if employer doesn't comply and just strings me along?
My H1B ends in April first week and Wife's H4 is long expired, We were planning only to keep my h1b as safty..

on 630 KHOW (Capliss & Silverman).
Congressman Udall spoke at length how the conference committee is formed, how it operates and how decisions are reached.
One thing he said is particularly noteworthy. He said, he reads his fellow congressmen and the mood of the House, and at this moment there are 300 congressmen (out of a total of 525) willing to vote in favor of the senate version of the comprehensive immigration bill as it is.
As I said in my posts elsewhere in IV, let's keep our eyes and ears open for the opnions of representatives and follow up on that.

Thanks for your reply "WeShallOvercome", The question which you answered is on top of my head from so many days, I asked some many people and they are not sure, Thanks your help
One more question is right now my wife is on H4, My I140 and 485 are in pending, if my wife got EAD she can use it right?
2) If my I140 denied and her EAD become Void, Is she permitted to stay in USA or She needs to go out of country and enter with h4 status?
Thanks
Ajay
Yes, You can use EAD and start working on it before I-140 approval BUT you can not change employer using AC21 without an approved I-140 even if your I-485 is pending for more than 180 days.
Let me clarify some doubts people have on this thread...
It's your choice whether to use EAD or H1 to work,
You can change employer on EAD as well as H1(EAD is just easier, no application fee involved), provided your 485 is pending for 180 days and 140 is approved.
EAD does not give you the freedom to change employer if the other 2 conditions are not met(140 approval and 485 pending for 180 days). Once these 2 conditions are met, you can change even on H1....

kpchal2 & seekerofpeace - I have run out of ideas now.
While we wait for October 1st (assuming visa numbers are over), what can be done in the next 13 days?
I am checking with different attorneys, and might change from my current attorney as he is totally useless. He opened a SR for me, and everytime I call him, he tells me to wait for 30 days.
I have taken Infopass, met the local senator, opened SR and nothing worked. Any ideas on what can be done next?
I went through this last year in August and September. Nothing happened, instead I got a reply in October (by that time my PD was not current), telling me that my PD was not current. They entirely ignored what I had expressed. Nothing can be done to bring results in 13 days. In any case, visas may have already exhausted, however, new visas will be available in October, so there is some hope.
Why cases seemingly work in random?
(i) Work is given out in lots. For example cases 1-100 are given to A, and 101-200 to B. Both begin to work at the same time. Cases 101 gets processed much earlier than case 100. It is possible that by the time case 90 is touched, all visas are gone, so cases 91-100 are left high and dry.
(ii) Receipt date is controvercial. Centers don't care when USCIS got your case. Each center cares when they (the centers) got the case. So for them, receive date is when the center received (which means opened and entered) your case. That's why true receive date is close to ND.
(iii) IO working on a lot suddenly falls sick, and goes away leaving his lot at his desk. Visas are used by other IO's
(iv) A file slipped out to behind the desk, and the case remains pending for a very long time.
(v)...

I guess I did posted in general section. I did not noticed other news sections ...as you can see I am new here.
And if you just want positive posts ....thats good.
Then leave some negative thinking,
I dont have any other details other than ..what I have on my profile.
Friend, with all due respect; what the members requested was to post some information about yourself. are you a immigrant? do you have any application pending / approved etc.
This helps us identify with you as a group.
Thanks for bringing this visa abuse issue to our attention. Just as in any other trade, surely there are many abusers, however, this economy fueled itself to the top of the world in a lot of things using talents from around the world and that was mainly via the temporary work visas including H1b. Now you might meet 1 person in say 100000 who falls into the catagory you mentioned and none of us entertain such people with any respect.

We are not here illegally. We are proud to be highly skilled, in demand and in America to improve American competitiveness.
The National Anthem was sung (and thank you Panjak, you brought a tear to my eye) as we are waiting patiently in line.
It was sung as a mark of respect to the country of which we aspire to eventually become citizens of, and that play host to us. Its the same reason we held the American and State flags up high and proud during the walk.
It is a powerful statement

My case is very straight-forward but some really inefficient guy is making it complicated. I need your experience and inputs. Please do advise.
I came to US on J-1 in 2000. After 3-years on J-1 got 'waiver (i-612)" and then moved on to H1B visa and filed I-485 in july07 (with an approved I-140). I have stayed with the same university medical school (my GC sponsor) since 2000. Last month, I got a simple RFE --asking for a copy of approval notice of 'waiver' . Same was sent within a day and it followed with several LUDs and read rfe response received.....
Last week, got 'Notice of Intent to Deny (NOID)' for myself and same/ditto for my derivative-spouse. It is asking both of us to provide evidence/ IAP-66 and H1B approvals to prove our legal status from 2000 to 2006 (Please, note they asked only until 2006 and not until today). I have IAP-66 and H1B approvals ready to respond to this.
My Question is: Since my spouse/derivative was my dependant and was on J-2 visa, the IAP-66 were all in my name how should we respond to derivative's noid as-far-as IAP-66 approvals are concerned. We know IAPs and waiver are good for dependants and I want to end this back-and-forth with my response to uscis.
Please, advise and let me know of your thoughts....

Hello,
Yes, as my PD is Feb 2005, this implies that the case has been pre-adjudicated as of now pending new finger prints.
My case was originally at NSC, was then send to MSC (National Benefits Center) and then was sent to local USCIS office in San Francisco where I went for an interview and then had this request for documents. The processing dates for San Francisco field office as of now for I-485 are Aug 1, 2008. So, I'm assuming that they have cleared all the cases that reached them by 31 July 2008 and that NSC sent my case file to them by 31st July 2008.
The IO who interviewed me was different than the one who has worked on my case since.
Yes, thanks for the wishes...but in this process, nothing is certain till the physical receipt of the cards, right? :)
PS: As far as I know, fingerprints and medical records are the two documents that may expire...apart from the applicant! ;)

As I am writing, I understand there are 1900 active members and 5800 members. Even if 50% of the members bring one new member each, there will be a tremendous increase. And this can be done via internet: web and emails. Set a target (50% increase?),deadline (Oct 31st?) and have weekly count of new additions displayed prominently. Democrats did that for Howard Dean's campaign and the model has been used for subsequent elections by both the parties.. There were many new members who were asking for rallies on streets. There are others who want to send flowers, 'Remember me' cards to lawmakers. A few others wanted to put up fliers in INdian and Chinese grocery stores. Even 20% of effort to carry out those activities would fetch at least one new member per old one, then the target can be achieved.
IV core had been very voiceferous, when we needed to achieve the funding target in summer. Can they become more involved chalking out a plan to
increase membership, if that really matters? In the membership enrollment form, if there is a field asking if some old members brought the applicant in, then we would know how many old ones really care to do something. Without personal outreach and contact, the rate of new additions will never increase.
Each member has potentially minimum of two votes to spare 6 years from the day he or she gets GC. When presidential elections are decided by ~600 votes in a single voting district, even thousands of potential votes from IV community would appear to be a juicy carrot.
In my work community, there are ~100 Chinese and Indian staffers. As far as I know,my Chinese colleagues, who are more in number and most are in some stage of GC, have not heard of IV or even SKIL bill. They don't need to as all of them are EB2 and hence they are retrogressed for just over an year. Among lesser numbered Indian-origin staffers, the story is the same. On my part, I can spread the word here and breath down the shoulders of some and get them in. I am working for a non-IT non-profit establishment. Just imagine, what happens if a personal quest for new members happen in an EB3-rich IT or finance sectors?
Any suggestions for concrete plan of action? Without a plan, committment from some of us to act as catalysts and keep up the momentum this drive will not work. Bringing in at least one new member per old one is much better than rallying, sending flowers, chocalates, 'Do me a favor' cards etc.
Are we upto this?
Thanks everyone for being patient and supporting us. The work is happening at all ends and it is an uphill task.
We really need to increase our membership. Higher membership will mean us looking tall when we meet lawmakers. Please all try to help us spread the word of IV to everyone you know that is stuck in retrogression. We represent at least half million people but we currently not even have 6 thousand members. Thus we have to bring lot many people into IV. I would encourage everyone to pls. register on this forum instead of being visitors.

How about Mexico? I saw some notes on tavle.state.gov (Mexico (http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_970.html)), which says -
"As of May 1, 2010, non-U.S. citizens with valid U.S. visas may enter Mexico with the U.S. visa, and do not have to obtain a Mexican visa. "
No visa required with GC. But, since I only had my AP, they asked me to get a Mexican visa ($36). The above rule must be new (no visas needed with non-immigrant US visas).
