Hello! I am a new member in Iowa--Des Moines. I work for a company called Proteus, Inc. and we help migrant and immigrants in areas of health, education, job placement, etc. I have also joined for personal reasons- my husband and I are "in the process."

You should be good if the University (UNVA?) is currently unaccredited and has a future chance of accreditation. USCIS might be more lenient for a SEVIS registered school and approved to operate in the state by the respective state education board. Consult an attorney for legal advise.

Now that it is 180 days Since Jul 2nd and some of us are thinking about AC21. Some are invoking AC21 and sending the documentation as soon as they change jobs and others are thinking of not informing the CIS (AFAIK Informing CIS is not mandatory as per AC21).
A friend of mine changed jobs 3 times after filing I485 never informing the CIS and got his GC without any RFE. He has the luxury of the lawyer who originally filed the I485 work with him and the company never revoked I140(because they laid him off). Another friend sent the documentation about invocation of AC21 and got RFE.
It is expressed in other related threads to start a poll so that we can have an idea of trends in AC21 usage.
This is a simple poll.
PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE ONLY IF YOU HAD ALREADY CHANGED THE JOB. DON'T VOTE IF YOU ARE JUST THINKING OF CHANGING THE JOB BUT DID NOT CHANGE YET.

Hi,
I am a B. Com, M. Com (1 yr) and CA from India, CPA (USA) with more than 12 yrs exp in accounting industry, including 7 yrs of post qualification (after CA) exp. - But even after all these qualifications, I was suggested by a leading law firm that I will not qualify under EB2 :mad: :mad: !!!!
If the position required a bachelors degree then you have problem !!!! What he (lawyers asst) said that you either need 4 yrs single degree or 3+3 yrs degree to qualify for EB2. He specifically said that 3+2 yrs degrees or 3+1 yrs (as in my case) does not qualify for EB2.
I have not yet filed GC yet though.
Hope this helps.....

Hi All:
Would appreciate if you could answer to my questions below
1) If I work for a company A ,Can I get my Green card processed by Company B by future employer option
2) If so when do I have to leave company A or is there any way I can continue with Company A and get my GC processed through company B.
Thanks,
Dollygc
Yes, it is possible to get from Company B.
You need to join company B when you get your GC.

My online 485 status shows "card/document production" for a long time now and I did not get the card yet. I had contacted USCIS several times thru lawyer and never got any reply. My lawyer said that could have been a mistake.
I finally called hte USCIS directly and got the reply from the Phone rep that my 485 is approved and will open a ticket to find out why my card has not arrived. After a week or so I got a letter from USCIS quoting my earlier call and said my PD is Jan'04 and currently the availablity is only for Apr '02 and I have to wait till the PD is current for case.
There was never an explanation about why my online status shows the card/document in production.
In this case, what are my options ? Please help.
Can't explain the kind of emotional and psychological trauma we go thru ever since we saw online status and subsequent messages from USCIS.
-Unlucky Dude
Online status is error prone and so, it is useless. USCIS is correct in its response that your priority date is almost 2 years away. Even if they had given you a GC by mistake, they would have taken it away after realizing the error.
Your best option may to port from EB3 to EB2, if a job is available and you are qualified.
good luck.

I'm no lawyer, but based on my own experience filing EB-2 PERM, this sounds like it might get rejected in PERM - "alien does not meet job requirements" - since you don't have five years experience.
This should be re-worded as
PROJECT MANAGERS:
-Microsoft .Net OR JAVA Technology
-Masters Degree or equivalent (Bachelors + 5 years experience) required
Did the company run this ad by their lawyer already?

Please help me out here.
I filed I-140 in EB2 category on September 30, 2005 at Vermont service center. I also filed I-1485 concurrently with I-140 and fingerprinted in December 2005. My I-140 was approved in June 2006. But I-1485 is still pending due to retrogression/non-availability of visa numbers to Indian nationals in EB2 category.
To avoid the retrogression in EB2 category I filed another I-140 in EB1 (since visa number is available in this category for Indian nationals) on May 1, 2006 at Texas service center (due to bi-specialization). This I-140 was approved in August 2006.
I have following questions regarding my case:
1) Can I use the I-485, which was concurrently filed with EB2 I-140 and link it with EB1 I-140.
a. If yes, where do I file my request since I-485 is pending in Vermont and EB1 I-140 is approved by Texas?
b. If no, is there any other alternative to use the EB1 I-140 priority dates?
Thanks!
Mat

skarthy: Upgrade your H1 transfer to premium processing, get the transfer approved. Re-enter the country by showing your wife's old H1 stamping, get a new I-94 based on new approved H1 petition at POE. This is a easy route; If I were you, I will do this.

Friends,
I am currently working at a systems company based on my EAD (H1 has expired). PD is Jun 2006.
I intend to marry a woman who is currently on F1 visa. I would like to know if there are any pitfalls from immigration point of view.
I understand that she can get an EAD only when my PD becomes current.
Can she file her I-485 petition based on my approved I-140? If yes, would she continue in F1 status (or what will her status be?).
Any other potential pitfalls in this particular scenario?
Any pointers would be useful.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
****** I have searched all related posts but could not find an answer ********
I have applied my labor in EB3 category. As i am qualified for the senior position i have asked my management for the next level. so that i can apply in EB2 and get the priority data transferred from EB3 application.
with the July fiasco applied I485 with the EB3 application. Now my management is working to promote me from software dev to Sr software developer. Should i accept the promotion? my job responsibilites will be same with additional responsibilities. What will happen to my i-485 application if i take the promotion?
Thank you.
I believe, you can accept this promotion without any effect on your pending I-485. Remember though not all promotions are fine. For example you cannot get promoted from a developer position to manager position and continue your case without filing new LC & I-140. Please consult any good lawyer for advice.
In your case now you have 2 options after getting promoted. Either continue your case in EB3 category without doing anything or appy for new labor & I-140 in EB2 category and have the pending I-485 attached to your new EB2 I-140. Ofcourse here I am assuming that the new job requirement falls under EB2 and you are qualified for EB2.

YOu might have already tried this - pls try emailing any school association there (Indian Students Association) - that might turn up good contacts. They are a couple of good universities out there like Chapel Hill...
Thanks for the suggestion but We need people who are stuck in retrogression. Professionals who have a story to tell. They should be IV members too.

clarify21: You can not have two status (ead & h1b) at the same time. Either your are on H1B or EAD (Pending AOS). If you would like to maintain the H1B status, for the part time job, you will have to ask your part time employer to do the new H1B; by having two H1Bs you can work for two employers the same time. By doing this, H1B and EAD both are valid. The moment you use EAD, your H1B status is invalid. Have a talk with your attorney. Hope this helps.

One cannot work on H4.
i was told by my lawyer - if spouse stops working, s/he can go back to H4, but you need to confirm with a lawyer, given your specific case.
