Even i have the same problem. I filed my I485 on July 2nd. I have a another labour from different company. I want to use the new labour. My current employer with whom i have my new labour told me to put stop payment on the 485 checks given to USICS so that they will send the 485 application packet back. I am not sure whether we can do
a stop payment to USICS. Spoke to couple of employers and heard that they usually do that for H1B(stop payment). Please adivse.

Just curious.
Who played what role in the reversal of USCIS/DOS decision?
Did IV core / AILA / Congresswoman Lofgren worked together in the back ground? Flower campaign / SJ rally / media - newspaper articles ?
May be all of the above had its unique impact on USCIS's decision to accept I-485?
Below article is just one example. There are many like this which mention about IV. IV hired a lobbying firm and work with different people for lobbying efforts. But the whole effort was lead by IV.

Guru's pl help..
One of friends 485(primary) was pending and his wife's 485(derivative) also pending.
Both of them are on H1(different employers) and they both lay-off around the same time about 4 months ago. My friends employer has been running paychecks for him but his wife's employer canceled her H1.
Is she now on "AOS" status or out-of-status?
Is she has to file H4 as my friend's dependent?
Thanks in advance..

It has become quite a hassle to obtain a California state driver's license or state identification card ("ID") when you are a non-immigrant such as in F, M, or J status (students, students in vocational schools, cultural exchange students). Recently Immigration Customs and Enforcement issued a fact sheet on applying for a driver's license or ID card for non immigrants in F, M or J status. (http://www.californiaimmigrationlawyerblog.com/Applying%20for%20a%20Driver%27s%20License.pdf). The fact sheet is helpful as it provides basic information on how to apply for a driver's license or ID card. It is not state specific but it does list all of the websites for all of the Department of Motor Vehicle offices in the United States.
The steps in applying for a driver's license or ID card in California are listed on the California Department of Motor Vehicles website (http://www.dmv.ca.gov/dl/checklists/id.htm). You must do the following in this order:
Obtain a Social Security number
Complete a Driver License or Identification Card Application
Present an acceptable birth date/legal presence document
Pay the application fee
In order to obtain a Social Security number, you must go to a local Social Security office. You may find out more about the process on the Social Security Administration's website (http://www.ssa.gov/ssnumber/). For those in F, M, and J status, you will find additional guidance by reviewing Social Security's electronic fact sheet, "Social Security numbers for non-citizens. (http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10096.html#3)"
The fact sheet issued by ICE is useful because it provides an email address to use in case the DMV does not issue the driver's license or identification card. It has been difficult in the past to get the immigration authorities to communicate with the DMV about a person's immigration status. In the fact sheet, ICE promises a one-to-two day turn around once they receive a request for information as to why a student's ID or driver's license was not issued. This is great news as students have suffered a great deal of frustration in the past waiting for the agencies to communicate with one another.

What if the house democrats become so pissed off and block the vote in the house?
The House operates very differently from the Senate. If Republicans in the House are behind a bill the Democrats in that chamber are powerless to block it.

There is an RFE on my advance parole. Came to know about it through my online status. I called to know what the RFE is about and I was told that they can't tell me over the phone and it is between the officer and me and that I have to wait to receive the RFE. Has anyone else experienced this ? I filed the RFE myself online.

You can always file under EB2 once your I-140 in EB3 is approved. Even thats what I did. I had masters with 5yr exp before joining in this company but some how attorney filed under EB3 which I noticed when I was filing for I-140 under EB3. So we waited till my I-140 gets approved and refiled again after filed for I-485. Now my labot got approved under EB2 and filed for I-140. Hope this helps.
I have one question though which I have already posted but didn't see any response. It would be nice if someone can clarify my doubt..
I have one question with regards to changing employer. My I-140 was approved long ago (in 2005) under EB3 and was filed for AOS during July 2007. But now we re-filed labor under EB2 got approved and refiled I-140 under EB2 category. I-140 under EB2 has been filed recently so I am assuming it will take months to get it approved. Now I am thinking of switching to new employer so what are my chances to move to new employer. Sorry am not sure if this message is already posted or not.

Hello everybody,
this is my first post on these forums, I've been reading around a fair bit for the past couple of weeks on immigration related websites, and especially IV.
As it has been so far the best source of information for me I want to ask a question that is pretty confusing...
From what I understood, being eligible for EB-2 is one of the best ways to get a GC in a reasonable delay (let's say around a year according to the first post of unitednations on http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=3250).
From what I understood that would merely require to have an arrangement with a company willing to help you in the tedious path to a GC instead of owning you with the H1-B.
There is where my question comes about EB-2 elibility as I'm really confused about the value of my french engineering degree in IT (5 years college, Diplome d'Ingenieur) and the possibility to find a position eligible for EB-2 that wouldn't require experience.
So my question consists of two parts :
- Is there any way to officially check that my degree is equivalent to an US Masters Degree ? (Wikipedia says yes, but I couldn't find any authoritative/official source)
- Is there any way that a position in the IT field that would require such a Masters Degree could be eligible for EB-2 even without work experience requirements ?
Thanks again to all IV folks and other who spend time sharing their precious information.

Hi,
I got my I-140 approved last week at Texas Service Center and the status was Approval notice sent. Today, I got an email from CRIS mentioning this case has been transferred to Nebraska Service Center for processing where my I-485 is pending.
Can anybody throw some light on this?
Thanks,

I just got off the phone with a second level rep at USCIS and am getting really confused with their mixed messaged. before i push any panic buttons can some one please let me know if they had any conversations with the idiotic bunch at uscis and share your conversations with regards to the visa availability for next month. this idiot states that vsc just oversubscribed and that it could be that there wont be any movement on the cases. all this over enthusiasm for nothing - that would really infuriate me. there is a limit to the fuss they can cause and play with emotions.
Let us look at it positively. Sept dates are already published. Therefore, centers are now free to assign visas for cases they may have already preadjudicated, but wait for issuing approvals until September. It is quite possible that all the visas available have already been assigned to these preadjudicated cases, and they are now just waiting for September to come so that they can issue formal approvals

Hi,
I am a B.COM and AICWA. I have also completed CA-Inter. I have totally 12 years of experience out of which 7 years in IT and 5 years Non-IT. I am currently working as Program Manager. My Labour is approved. My company is trying to get a evaluation done.
Would there be any issues when concurrently filing for I-140 and I-1485 with regard to the Education Evaluation.
Make sure you use a detailed evaluation from a reputed evaluator. Do not provide generic evaluation as we do while applying fir H1B.
Evaluation should specifically equate your B.Com degree to a 4 year US degree. + 5 years experience if you filed in EB2. (your labor should have a requirement of BS + 5 years progressive experience)
If filed for EB3 the evaluation should equate your B.Com degree as to equivalent of a 4 year US degree.
I am hoping that this is not a labor substitution case and you labor is YOURS and requirement is Bachelors in Business or Finance or Commerce.
Since you did not post details of your labor, I am not sure people can help you much with specifics.
some helpful pointers.
Try not to club your experience to come up with education equivalency.
If your labor is perm make sure you are already being paid what is on the labor approval.
Try not to use your CA-Inter or AICWA. Keep it simple and straightforward.
I am assuming there is no ability to pay issue and the company is green on its financials.

Hi thanks a lot for the prompt reply. But I am curious to know the chances of getting my transfer petition approved from my current employer. I heard we should be in H1B status before apply for transfer and we should have minimum 3 paystubs from the employer who processed H1B.
So without having all these is there any chance to get my transfer petition approved?

I have a opportunity to become a Manager in the same company....The job duties would ofcourse be different from Programmer/analyst position...
So can I take the promotion and use the EAD...Will I be using AC21
I would suggest you to check with a good lawyer, as both Job duties and Job title both are changing for you, this might be iffy for AC21.
By the way, if you have not done, whenever you get a chance please mail letter against AC21 cases getting wrongful denials(IV action item).
Thanks
