How long will it take to get a green card in this category with a PD in 2008?
Will it be better to find another Job and go EB2? My H1b started in Oct 2007.

Kevin,
It's no different using the future employment EAD from that of a current employment EAD. However, I would suggest you work for that future employment company for say 6 months before you use AC21 and move on to a different job. This would alleviate the risk of INS considering your case to be fradulent.

If you are in Eb1 you should get your GC soon.
If your profile is incorrect please correct it.
If you have a EAD and AP, AP is allowed for emergency. With a GC you an file a form for extended vacation

I just e-filed my EAD application. Unfortunately, right after I made the payment thorugh Credit Card and it generated the PDF receipt, I noticed that my country of Citizenship/Nationality is entered as USA, instead of INDIA. Everything else on the form is correct.
Can anyone advise how to correct this error? I haven't send any supporting documentation. Should I just highlight this in my cover letter when I send the supporting documentation? Or call up USCIS Customer Service and they can correct that maybe?
Please advise guys,
Thanks

here you another angle to it:

07/12/2007: Truth to Rumor of Resrictionist Senators Having Influenced USCIS Decision of July 2007 EB New Filing
There is an unconfirmed source of information that a couple of restrictionist U.S. Senators influenced the USCIS decision to reject July applications for their alleged fear that since July 2007 Visa Bulletin would open a flood gate of hundreds of thousands of 485 applications, the public might take it as the government giving out a sort of "amnesty" to these floods of people. We hope that there is no truth to such rumor. However, if it is true, it is indeed shocking that individual legislators could interfere with the government process on "personal" basis and without the formal legislative process of public notice and participation. We urge the U.S. Senate to get to the bottom of this rumor and take appropriate action for correction under the Senate rules.
Repost. Please close this thread.

Hi,
I have friend who was in US for 7 years (F1->H1) and moved back to India. Later, he came here on B1 for couple of times. What's the best option for him if he wants to come back to US to work full time.
Thanks in advance.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has launched its newly re-designed Web site (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis). Although the Web site update was scheduled to be introduced September 22, 2009, attorney Eugenia Ponce visited the site Monday and has this report:
The updated Web site is organized according to categories.The categories are displayed as Topics, Forms, Resources, Laws, News, and About Us. The topics are categorized as follows: Adoption, Permanent Residence, Humanitarian, Citizenship, Members of the Military and Their Family, Family, Visit the U.S., Working in the U.S, and Genealogy. After clicking on a specific topic, I was provided helpful information and even more additional information was available through the links on the left of the screen.The advantage of categorizing the information by topic is that individuals are now able to familiarize themselves with the process from start to finish. There are other helpful links and tools within each specific topic.
Another key feature to the Web site is that there is a “where to start” link. Before, individuals could navigate throughout the Web site not knowing where to even begin their search on a narrow issue. Now, the “where to start link” will allow individuals to begin their immigration search by narrowing it down to their specific issue. For instance, there is a scroll-down available for individuals under the “where to start” link. It states “I Am,” and one can select from the various choices available and get specific information relating to any issue.
Given the new era with text messaging (even various airline companies provide flight and gate status information through text messaging), USCIS has upgraded its site by adding a link that allows individuals to receive case status updates via text messages. The newly designed site has provided a one-stop resource center for individuals with specific queries and I am excited in navigating throughout their links. Visit the newly re-designed USCIS Web site (http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis) and see the improvements for yourself.

"THIS IS NOT A COMPLEX SITUATION" - Consider changing the subject.
Absolutely, she can go for stamping in India with your H1B approval and get it stamped. If she were in US, based on your H1B approval she will get an Dependent approval notice and a new I-94, she still needs H4 visa to travel.
If you file for H1B renewal in regular process it might take more time, so if you are in a hurry then go for Premium.

Yes, Im aware of the Cronin memo, and also the clarification on murthy.com below
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_efftrv.html
But, If you read the memo correctly, the language is vague at best, with references to a final rule that I couldnt find. Even the interim memo(Cronin) isnt available from the USCIS website.
My goal was not to restart the discussion on this. I simply wanted suggestions on how to approach USCIS to get clarity on this situation. Some options would be
1. Call USCIS : but do the people answering the call know the rules, and is their "interpretation" valid ?
2. Get an Infopass appt: Again, an IO may not be the right person responding to this
3. Contact the USCIS director : possible? how?
4. Contact AILA
5. Contact the Ombudsman
If anyone has thoughts and suggestions about how to get this clarified, please advise. My goal is to get a document from USCIS authoritatively stating their stance on this situation.

I and my family have to travel to India urgently due to medical urgency. Our only AP document was taken last year and this year the renewal is not yet done. We are using our EAD status and H1 is expired and no longer available.
Is there a way I can get an emergency appt and a AP travel document. if yes, what do I need to do to get that.
If this question has been answered earlier, can someone point to the right source.
Thanks in advance.
Check with the lawyer first...I don't think you can apply for AP while you are outside U.S. I know for sure, Reentry permit will be denied if you apply from outside U.S. I am not sure if it's the same for AP. Incidentally, you use the same 131 form for both...
So check with a lawyer before you act based on the advice from the forum, even if it means shelling some money...That money will be well spent...

After filing 485, Is AC21 based changing employment is legal only when using EAD or it is applicable for H1-B transfer as well?
History - I filed my 485 in EB3 PD March 2004. Married after that, waiting to file my wife�s 485 for PD. Hence I am maintaining my H1 as well as H4 for my wife.
I can�t use my EAD.
I am working as software engineer at a client location for the past 8 yrs. A corporate wide new policy at client location forces me to take full time or quit the job as not allowing a contract for more than two years continuously. I work for a very small American Consulting company and one or two employees in W2. Hence my option to get another client is very limited.
I like to see what are the options legally can be possible without affecting my GC and legal residency of me and my wife.. I am now on my 11th year on H1 -B
Can I switch to new employer with a H1 transfer (not using EAD) using AC 21 where the 485 was filed by different employer. Is it possible / I mean using H1B to a new employer not EAD. And extending the H1-B continuously?
In case if I switch my job, and if the PD become current what are my options? Is my existing 485 application still valid? Can I file my wife�s 485 during the time.
Can I continue extending my H1-B based on my old I-485 EB3 with the new employer more than one time. assuming my PD may take more than another 3 yrs.
Do I require to start again my GC process? Or Can I continue with the same existing filed application?
I can start a fresh GC with the new employer with EB2 as I gained another 6 yrs experience. But don�t know how long it takes, Can I continue extending my H1-B based on my old I-485 EB3?
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks

My PD is April-2002 and I really need to go back home in December but I don't want to use AP for that, so I am hoping I will hear something by the end of this year.

Hello,
My spouse will be in India next week and would be going for her H1B stamping at the Mumbai consulate. She came here on H4 and we applied for her H1B, effective 10/2007, and she has been working since Jan08 and have all her paystubs from that date. Can you share your experience in terms of questions they ask and supporting documents they request in addition to the documents that we are required to carry.
Your reply would be appreciated

My Permanent residency is being processed thru Employer A (I-140 not done yet).
Employer A also holds my H1B. This is my only H1B, and it extends based on approved labor as I am on my 7th year if H1B.
If A files for Chapter 11, will my H1B and permanent residency get cancelled/revoked?
If my current H1B is valid till Nov 2010, and employer A files for chapter 11 in Dec 2010, will I be able to stay/work in US at least till Nov 2010?
What will be my options if H1B / GC gets cancelled? Can I transfer this H1B to a different employer? Or, can a different employer has to file for a new H1B? :confused:
Your answer/advices are highly appreciated.
GC/H1 sponsoring employer filing Ch11 has no implications on your current H1 or pending GC until the company starts liquidating (files Ch7). I have been in the same situation and I just recently used AC21 and changed employers by transferring my H1 to my new employer. Original company has been in Ch11 since Jan'09. My 8-11 yrs H1 extension (based on approved I-140) with my original company was pending when they filed Ch11 and USCIS had no issues approving it in Mar. As long as your current position is not eliminated (laid off), there is no problem. It will definitely be an issue if the company announces Ch7 liquidation before you can transfer to a new employer. Once the company is in Ch7 and USCIS figures it out, then it could revoke your H1 or send a NOID on your I-485. Hope this helps.
