we are going through it right now.
planning to file g-28 only and not AC-21 letter.
Will wait for a RFE to send a AC-21 letter.
Are you self filling G-28 or doing through another lawyer?
Thanks
Thanks for the info.
Planning to thru another lawyer - only because I dont know how to do it on my own and dont want to take any chance. Someone earlier mentioned that if we do it on our own - we may not receive any acknowledgement but if we do it thru antoher lawyer they receive some sort of confirmation.
I am not sure if its true or the logic behind it but thought of going thru a lawyer - he is charging me for both G-28 and AC21 even though AC21 is not done now (which is ok with me).
If RFE does come at some point - do you know how much time we typically have to reply?

Instead of thinking of filing a lawsuit immediately, which could be expensive in my opinion, you should think about filing an MTR - Motion To Reconsider.

Then worked in Canada for 6 years.
Currently on TN-1 Visa with 13 years of IT Program Management and IT Project Management, IT Governance and IT Audit experience.
Looking for a company willing and able to apply for Labor Certification in this short duration, so I can apply for I-140 and I-485 before August 17th.

Hi,
We (me and my wife) have received RFEs to submit G-325A forms on 9/24/09 and our lawyer submitted the requested documents last week on 10/20/09, on the next day USCIS online status changed to "We have received RFEs documents and this case processing has resumed........" on very next day 10/22/09 online status changed to "RFEs sent......."
Now we (me and my wife) and our lawyer received same RFEs again thoguh our lawyer submitted requested documents.
Please share your thoughts on how should i go from here...should i submit documents again?? or should i take an info pass and try to find out whats gaing on with our cases?
Thanks in advance
chintainfogc
I would go ahead and submit the documents again to be on the safe side. Not sure if taking Infopass would be of any help to you in this case. You dont want to take chances and risk getting a I-485 denial on the grounds of not responding to RFE. If I were you, I would send them the docs again.

My old labor from 2001 is now up for review. This past Friday, my company put an ad in the newspaper. Dept of labor asked for
3 consecutive days and 1 posting in the office. Sunday was the first day. Basically I have a question. DOL has already placed an ad
on American job bank. They basically have Bachelors as the requirement. They do not mention what the discipline the bachelors need to be in.
However, the ad my company placed last Friday has Bachelors in computer science or Computer information systems. The job description is the same as the one
DOL posted on American Job bank. Do you think because they just used Bachelors in their posting and my company used Bachelors in Computer Science or CIS will
make a difference. Another words, can DOL reject my labor because of that. DOL, by using Bachelors, they are saying that anyone with Bachelors can apply. While my company is saying, only CIS or CS grads can apply.
Actually my attorney from 2001, made a mistake when he filed ETA 750. He listed education as Bachelors in Computer. So basically the advertisement should have been Bachelors in computer, as such what DOL is asking for. Mirror copy of ETA 750. However my company is saying that Bachelors in Computer is such broad term and does not make sense. That's why they placed the ad with Bachelors in Computer science or information systems. So having said that, what are chances that DOL will reject that advertisement, and make us re do it using Bachelors in Computer like the ETA 750 form is asking. Can we amend the form at this later of the ball game.
The advertisement is like 1000 for 3 days. The company picked up the tab this time, but if it is a mistake then I would have to pay for it. The did not even want to pursue this since they already have PERM and I140 approved for me. Getting this old labor certified for me, I would save a lot of time and be able to file 485 since my date is current. Using PERM priority date, it will take years.
Any thought will be appreciated.
Also, how do I remove him as the contact person for my labor. My company doe not want deal with him anymore.
can they send a letter for Backlog Center in Dallas.
Thanks!

Over 500 Indian guest workers sue US company for human trafficking - The Times of India (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/nri/news/Over-500-Indian-guest-workers-sue-US-company-for-human-trafficking/articleshow/7548222.cms)
HOUSTON: Lawyers for a group of Indian guest workers, trafficked to the US from India to work in shipyards after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, have sued an American company, Signal International, along with its co-conspirators and other entities for human trafficking and racketeering.
If class status is granted, the lawsuit could be the largest human trafficking case in US history, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has said in a statement.
Workers were allegedly lured here with dishonest assurances of becoming lawful permanent US residents, the statement said.
The ACLU joined a class action lawsuit brought on behalf of over 500 guest workers from India charging that the workers were trafficked into the US through the federal government's H-2B guest worker programme with dishonest assurances of becoming lawful permanent US residents and subjected to squalid living conditions, fraudulent payment practises, and threats of serious harm upon their arrival.
The complaint alleges that recruiting agents hired by the marine industry company Signal International held the guest workers' passports and visas, coerced them into paying extraordinary fees for recruitment, immigration processing and travel, and threatened the workers with serious legal and physical harm if they did not work under the Signal-restricted guest worker visa.
The complaint also alleges that once in the US, the men were required to live in Signal's guarded, over crowded labour camps, subjected to psychological abuse and defrauded out of adequate payment for their work.
The ACLU charges that the federal government has fallen short of its responsibility to protect the rights of guest workers in this country.
According to the lawsuit, the treatment of the workers violates the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act (TVPA) and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organisations Act (RICO).
In addition to the federal court litigation, in partnership with the ACLU, the workers have testified before the UN special rapporteur on the human rights of migrants, the UN special rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, and senior staff at the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
Signal, a marine and fabrication company with shipyards in Mississippi, Texas and Alabama, is a subcontractor for several major multinational companies.

Hey, just be confident.. not all people get a chance to go in a place and apply for a job.. besides, if you have all the qualities of an applicant, there is no reason to be shy, rather tell your interviewer on what you can do to be an asset and help the company grows more.:D

Your mother can file a B-2 extension request on an I-539. She should not need to file an Affidavit of Support, just provide reasons why she wants to extend beyond the initial admission period. In my experience, CIS is very generous in granting extensions of visitor status. It my take a few months to get an approval. However, as the previous poster says, she can stay in the US while the extension is pending IF the extension is filed before her current status expires. Good luck.

Dear Attorney,
Is there any minimum length of time to be on H4 before applying to H1.
Thanks
There is no minimum requirement to be on H4 for COS to H1. One should meet H1 application requirements and the cap should be available and should have maintained legal status
BTW, I am not an attorney.

Could anyone explain to me what this means (from aug visa bullettin):
Employment Third Preference Other Workers Category: Section 203(e) of the NACARA, as amended by Section 1(e) of Pub. L. 105-139, provides that once the Employment Third Preference Other Worker (EW) cut-off date has reached the priority date of the latest EW petition approved prior to November 19, 1997, the 10,000 EW numbers available for a fiscal year are to be reduced by up to 5,000 annually beginning in the following fiscal year. This reduction is to be made for as long as necessary to offset adjustments under the NACARA program. Since the EW cut-off date reached November 19, 1997 during Fiscal Year 2001, the reduction in the EW annual limit to 5,000 began in Fiscal Year 2002.

It depends on the I-140 you requested USCIS to consider while you aplied for I-485. There is some process called interifling, where you can later request USCIS to use the I-140 with better priority date against the I-485 so you can avoid multiple I-485.
hello Jai_Immigration,
I am in a similar situation and was wondering if you have any idea...I had applied for my 485 using an approved I140. Last year I had another I140 applied (since the first 140 application was about to get denied) and this application is still pending at USCIS. USCIS has sent an RFE on this second application last week (which my lawyer hasn't received yet).
Do you think this second I140 application will cause any effect on my 485 application? I had used my first 140 which was approved for my 485 application.
Thanks.

Guru, I intend to seek your opinion/thoughts on some thing that is going on in mind.
I am working as a contractor for a Insurance Company. My GC process is started thru a desi consulting company. Priority date is Jun 2007 EB3 - India
The company is now offerring me to join them as permanent employee. They are saying they can help me with immigration.
My question is .. I dont understand how they can help me. I think the best they can do it apply as EB2 - India. (Which we heard recently is no better then my current EB3 India.)
Am I missing anything here ? Trying to make up my mind one way or the other (to accept this position or not.)

Hi,
I got laidoff recently. My company is going to withdraw H1b. I have my 140 approved from same company and my 485 pending. I have EAD and never used and working on H1B for the same company. I was working for the same company which processed my H1B.
If H1B is withdrawn is there going to be any effect on my 485? like any possibility of RFE on 485 for EVL? My employer said they will not withdraw or revoke 140.
How long will it take to withdraw H1B?
your inputs are much appreciated.
Thanks

anyways, I like the postive spirit.
I mean literally.
Here is one last scenario ( perhaps that is why all attorneys are saying - 'continue with your filings and go on with your life' AND all old saws all good old folks at IV might say 'I told you so'). So, not to be let out, here is my take on things to unfold tomorrow:
Why did they wait till Jul 2?
They will release the Aug VB tomorrow. In which they will retrogress most or all categories to 'U'.
They will enforce the 'DMV office rule'. All who have filed on the basis of Jul VB, will be receipted, may be finger printed but AOS adjudicated and GCs issued as dates become current.
Good night and good luck to all, particularly to those '599 (174 members and 425 guests)'
Ok Guys enough "PREDECTIONS" now go to bed.
Only the coming days will tell us what is going on and what will happen. Everything else is just hear-say.
Go to sleep and remember that we DO have day jobs.
