I read dailykos.com, a liberal blog site, often. Recently, there has been a spate of postings there that are anti H-1B and anti high tech immigration. One example, from today, is: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/3/28/82450/4208. I have been posting comments as cacophonix.
dailykos.com is the most powerful and most popular liberal blog. Opinion that gets set there is influential with Democratic legislators. There is significant support there for high-tech immigration, but I think the tide could easily turn.
I need help from fellow IVers in refuting such ridiculous diaries as the one above. Please register and follow developments there, and please post responses when these issues come up.
I can't stress this enough: dailykos has a strict trolling/abuse policy. If you lose your cool and start abusing, you will get banned in a flash. So please be courteous.
I read your response, it was good and I signed up as well. I will post my response refuting anti h1 rhetoric.
On a separate note Logiclife response was spot on and I hope IV will follow in the footsteps of dailykos in dealing with the nonsense mongers.
I will take this opportunity to bring some anti-h1 rhetoric and h1 bashing that happens in our very own IV site!!!!!!!. I don’t want to name the individual who specializes in h1 bashing, so as not to make it a personal attack on that individual. A few days ago I posted a message on one of the threads in IV saying day by day reading some responses on h1 bashing makes me feel like I am on an anti-immigrant website rather than a website fighting for legal eb immigrants.
It feels sad and disheartening to see some members attacking h1 when they themselves are on h1. By attacking h1 they are attacking the very movement and people that IV is trying to help. Sure there are some abuses on h1 but lets not attack h1 like anti immigrants. Let’s fight the people outside who attack h1 and this community but let’s also clean our own house as well and not parrot the same anti h1 rhetoric in IV forum.

Sakthisagar is correct, i was in the same situation in yr 2006. When i went for stamping in chennai,India I was able to get the stamping for current + future (4years without any problems). At the POE my I-94 was stamped till 2010. I hope this helps.

Do you mean, file I-140 first and wait till it's approved before you file for 485? If that's what you are thinking, my advise is that filing for 485 is not a luxury that you can avail yourself whenever it suits you. You must grab the chance as soon as your PD is current becaue you never know when it would be current again unless of course you fall in to EB2 ROW or a higher category. And please note that these days I-140 takes much longer than 6 months to get approved and Premium Processing is no longer in the offer.
Hi All,
Are there any risks of filing 140 & 485 together? I just talked to an attorney & she said that it is better to get 140 approved 1st before filing 485, as when you file concurrent, the files go to inexperienced officers who will not judge your case properly.
When you file 140 separately, the file goes to officers who only deal with 140's.
Does anybody on here know of these risks/disadvantages of filing concurrently. I was under the impression that it was better to do this, but now I stand contradicted!

Today, I spoke to a USCI Agent and his supervisor at NSC about my case..
I quizzed them about July 2007 revised visa bulletin etc.
He looked around, checked it for like 10 minutes and said HE DOESN'T HAVE
ANY MEMO. All he said that he has this MEMO which states that July 2007 (original) bulletin ..based on that EB1-3 for all countries are current.
:-) May be NSC approves application :-) as practically NO ONE can stop them..
Again this is based on my call to actual live human being at NSC..
No wonder why we have not heared any 485 Rejection form NSC... I guess...

Please see the thread on the SKIL bill, I believe the bill covers premium processing for I-485. For DOL I wonder if they would even have the capacity to do it, funds or no funds.

I agree, international schools mirror US/UK formats and the transition is easier. My neighbor returned with an 8 year old kid. She had problems with the second language (hindi in her school, tutions helped a bit) she was fine with the rest. The parents had planned in advance, be prepared for fact that even if your child is among the best here, he/she will be average there, the learning standards are very high in good schools. BTW in india children are already exposed to writing in the second language from KG
If you contact the school they will email you a list of academic standards for each class, you can go through the list and spend some time working on your childs weak spots (if you want a URL for such a list let me know or search for DPS pune or any other well known school). Its different there, but there is more freedom and children enjoy it more (there will be pressures, related to mixing with children and language, but children are more adaptable than us.). Be prepared for a learning curve and an adjustment period thats all.

I have the denial letter. If you PM your email, I can send to you.
USCIS mentioned about EDGE database and denied. (they are using EDGE for comparison)
You cannot get a rule from internet, but you can see their denial decision letter from the affected people and read their new found vision.
http://aacraoedge.aacrao.org/
ALSO READ MURTHY'S CONCERN OF USCIS USING EDGE DATABASE.
THEY give (Indian) MSC only equal to US bachelors.
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_mtaedg.html
You have not still answered my question for official source or link for your claim. I don't care how third party evaluator evaluates. I have seen so many varying evaluations done.
Also, your calculation 3+1+2=6 is incorrect. Since this is BSc+BEd+MSc. For MSc, BEd is not needed and therefore you can't add time spent for BEd. Just like two BSc degrees do not make it equivalent to MSc.
If this one year program is not BEd, but "post graduate" diploma, still it is not going to work, since that "diploma" is not required for MSc.

Does it mean that if you get a receipt number in the case of an H1 transfer your case would definitely be approved?? i.e. Receipt number = Transfer approval?? :confused: Anybody familiar with the transfer process should please enlighten.
It seems you can start working as soon as the application is sent out. This was the advice given to my firend by his attorney.
He consulted some other lawyers. They say that it is safe to get the receipt number before starting to work.
So to be on the most safe side, wait until you get the receipt number.
But many people do start soon after sending the transfer petition...I know people who have done that. My friend is also not going to wait for the receipt as he has to join immediately.

Hello,
Here is my situation.
a) My I-485 is pending since Aug 2007. I am the beneficiary and my spouse is the primary.
b) The I-94 on my passport states its validity upto Aug 22, 2010. This was stamped using my earlier H1B which was valid upto Aug 2010.
c) I quit my H1B job on Nov 2008 and took another job using EAD. I think this may have invalidated my underlying H1B
d) I didn�t apply for any extension of stay or change of status (COS) back in Oct 2008, becuase my I-485 was pending.
e) I have not travelled outside of the country since my last arrival.. (pls see #b)
Recently I came across a memo from USCIS wherein it tries to differentiate betweeen UNLAWFUL STATUS and ACCRUAL of UNLAWFUL PRESENCE. The memo is "Consolidation of Guidance concerning unlawful presence for purposes of sections 212(a)(9)(B)(i) and 212(a)(9)(C)(i)(I) of the act".. and the example on page 9 states this.
"An alien is admitted as a non immigrant, with a form I-94 that expires on Jan 1, 2009. On Oct 5, 2008, he properly files for an application for adjustment of status. He does not, however, file any application to extend his non immigration stay, which expires on Jan 1, 2009. The AOS application is still pending on Jan 2, 2009. On Jan 2, 2009, he becomes subject to removal as a deportable alien under section 237(a)(1)(c) of the act because he has remained after the expiration of his nonimmigrant admission. For purposes of future admissibility, however, the pending adjustment application protects him from the accrual of unlawful PRESENCE
This example got me worried a lot. I am sure most of us always thought that since we have a EAD, we can leave H1 and get another job on EAD while I-485 is pending. I for sure wasn't aware that we are expected to file something to get an extension of stay or change of status.
Now, my questions to our experts are
1. Since I am within my I-94 expiry date., am I in lawful status?
2. Since my H1B (which was used for my I-94) may have been revoked, does it mean that I-94 which I have on my passport is invalidated?
3. I know I am not accruing unlawful presence because of AOS Pending.. but what about status?
4. What should I do now to correct ...? my I-94 expires in another month.
Please help!

Hi,
I have been in this too long and want to decide if it makes any sense fighting anymore and anticipating the cards. Any advice is greatly appreciated
I contacted the Senators office and the rep there made a query to USICS> this is the response she got.
�This case is currently in an extended security review area."
She then tried to contact this area and the Officer advised that it cannot be released at this time. The Service is aware that there is a visa available, however, since it is still being reviewed for security issues it cannot be released at this time
Any Advise?
-Thanks

How long is your I-485 pending? Ever thought about suing the USCIS? This is still the country of law.
Rajiv Khanna has gone on record about suing USCIS, he says majority of cases don't even get a hearing. Govt uses some kind of a law originally created for handling terror suspects against most of the cases against USCIS. How ever he says California is an exception

I could find this useful. I am in my 6th year expiring June 1, 2007. My employers are just about to file LC, so I guess being able to process I140 by premium will enable me file for a three year extension before my current stay expires.
May be they did it for those who are in 6th year and did not file LC 365 day before 6 year expiry.. Now they can file LC in perm get approval fast and then get Premium 140 to get 3 year extension on H1B.
