Thanks Meridiani.
Is TSC doing Pre-adjudication Now a days ? Any Clue Gurus.. Otherwise, we have only 50% Chances.
Let's keep fingers crossed..
Thanks,
preadjudication is where USCIS processes your case even when visa numbers are not going to be available: meaning ur PD is not current, they know even if all is well they wont be able to approve, but still they go over everything, issue an RFE is something is not ok etc. If all is well, the case goes into a pre-adjudicated stack, and once visa numbers are available, they simply pick up a file from that stack, assign it a visa and mark it approved. This is how lots of people got approvals last year in july VB.
pre-adjudication has three advantages compared to starting to process only when teh PD is current:
- If they wait for PD to be current to pick up a file and start looking at it, there is no way they can process so many cases when the PD does go current, or when dates move significantly towards the end of the year. This is how they processed nearly 60k cases in 2 months last year.
- if PD is current for a short period (1month or 2) and thats when they pick up your case, if you get a NOID you could end up missing the window by the time you respond and they pick up your response.
- its helpful for them because they can weed out cases that are not going to be approved, earlier and they dont end up giving interim benefits to those people.
ur status does not change when your case is pre-adjudicated.

That really sucks.
They (USCIS) take ages to work on our case and when they request something they don't give enough time to respond and even ignore genuine hardship.
I pray sincerely things work out for you. Good luck!
bbct & vin13,
Thank you both for your replies! We are trying to figure out what to do.
She is travelling with our twins and my father. Seems like there is no way other than for her to do a flying visit or to prepone the trip for everybody.
Thanks,

YOU: If thats a valid visa until 2009 you can travel without AP. Else, you can travel but will need H1 stamped.
YOUR WIFE: If she needs H4 stamped, she can get that done and re-enter.
If your travels are not urgent you could wait for AP and save couple hundred bucks!
But dont you need to wait for AP approval to travel if you are in AdjustmentOfStatus Phase?
Thanks

I am starting this thread to collect examples of inefficiencies and inconstencies of USCIS . Also examples of hiding data by USCIS.
Whenever you give example of your experience if possible add:
1. Dates
2. Details of what happened
3. Action that you took and reaction by USCIS.
Some of the examples that I have seen on this forum are 1. Wrong photograph on AP 2. Totally different answers from customer service 3. Internal memo in USCIS not made public about holding visas for EB2 India etc.

Ramba,
Thanks for responding. What happens when we get a RFE or NOID. Could we respond by ourself then? My case is not complicated at all. As straight forward as it could get.
I am going to search in this forum for sample covering letter. But if anybody has the info handy please let me know.
Thanks guys!

RFE and NOID come with a color sheet of paper with your details and some USCIS internal codes for your case. You can respond by yourself and put the sheet on top - this is for the mailroom to handle your case

add72 is correct, the indian economy is not dependent on the IT outsourcing business any more.
If you research more you will find that Tata steel is currently one of the largest steel makers in the world after acquiring corus.
Infosys might aquire capgemini/ernst and young soon making it to compete directly with IBM and EDS for high level consulting business
Chrysler might be sold to tata motors
etc etc
Earlier goverment policy was inhibiting indian businesses in india as well as globally
Now the policy is changing and indian business are thriving both at home and internationally.
They are looking to hire the top talent paying top money.
Thats why its in the indian govt's interest that the GC / immigration process is skewed up here :) so that its best people come back and paricipate in the economy back home

I would appreciate it if someone can give me some advise...I need to file my EAD renewal & refuse to pay insane amounts of money to my attorney...
Thanks!!!!
I am filing for my EAD renewal and had a quick question...I have an EAD card from when I was in college and did my OPT. The problem though is that I do not have some of the details that they ask for while filing EAD renewal, such as what Center was it processed at & what was the application date.
I have already called USCIS & they cant pull up what center my EAD was filed at or the date it was filed. Can anyone suggest what I should do in this situation? What do I put in the form? Does anyone have similar experiences?

AFAIK you should be able to get the pay raise mid year even in a university, however you might have to file an amendment to your H1B if it is not the usual inflation adjustments.
Usually amendments are filled when there is a material change like new location because it invalidates the underlying old labor. There is no clear cut rule but some lawyers feel 10% pay increase is borderline. If there is a title change you also might need an amendment even though duties in universities hardly change from the usual teaching and research.
Filing an amendment is easy from what I remember.
And, yes, I am familiar with the university system.

There was no provision for validating visas in the US, at least not in our Brownback amendment. I am not aware of that being a rider on any other amendment -- but I wouldnt' rule it out
We will have to do a post-final-bill-with-amendments analysis.
Please hold on till that becomes available.

Advocacy Action Item August 2009 - update
The summer August recess is in progress and the lawmakers are still in their constituencies. This is an opportunity for us to meet with them and address our issues and present solutions in preparation for the upcoming CIR. We must push for our agenda to get our provisions in the base bill as CIR is being drafted currently. If we do not get our provisions in the base bill then it is much harder to get them attached to the bill in the form of amendments.
IV therefore requests its members, to continue to call up and start scheduling lawmaker meetings NOW. Please take appointments with your local lawmakers of both houses of Congress. You can find more information about how to reach your lawmaker in this guide http://immigrationvoice.org/media/HowTo_Guide_MeetLawmakers.doc
our members have been taking appointments and so far the feedback has been extremely positive. These meetings have enabled us to enlighten the lawmaker offices and engage in constructive dialog that not only addresses our issues and concerns but also provides solutions to the backlogs.
As communicated earlier, we have created multiple documents and support material that will go into your �Advocacy Packet� for you to carry for these lawmaker meetings. We have also created a Lawmaker Appointment Book
http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=80&Itemid=36
where you will post the details of your lawmaker appointment and we will provide you with the advocacy packet. More details of this action item can be found on this thread:
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum85-action-items-for-everyone/294611-iv-action-item-advocacy-month-august-2009-a.html
In summary there are two parts to this action item
1) Please continue to take the appointments with your lawmakers. We need to maximize the remaining August recess days to get as many meetings as possible with either the lawmakers or their close aides. Once you take the appointment, update the details in the Lawmaker Appointment Book that is available on http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=80&Itemi d=36 and you will receive the Advocacy Packet that you will need to take to the meetings.
2) Once you have your meetings, please email the details and feedback to info@immigrationvoice.org to help us follow up with their DC office with your feedback. Your detailed feedback will also help other members in their upcoming meetings with their representatives.
We must push ourselves harder and stronger in this month if we have to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Advocacy is an integral, essential and important part of democracy and we must exercise our first amendment right. We not only are highly skilled and are high income individuals that but we are truly the best and the brightest Future Americans that contribute significantly to the progress of America.

IV = I+We : The Importance of Grass-Roots Organization
Immigration Voice is a grassroots organization, which means, every member in the community plays an important role towards resolving our issues and achieving our goals. Our members are highly skilled, well educated and extremely talented who continue to contribute towards the success of the organization. Our membership base is large and growing every day. The best way to organize ourselves so that our efforts can be effective and yield desired results is by joining state chapters and actively participating in grassroots efforts. State chapters play a very important role in shaping the organization. State chapters organize conference calls, meetings, social gatherings, grassroots advocacy, publicity campaigns, and media campaigns, generate awareness and coordinate many other activities. State chapters also train and mentor members and organize meetings with local lawmakers to discuss our issues, which is the most important aspect of grassroots advocacy. When more people meet with local lawmakers of their constituency and apprise them of our issues, the better will be their understanding of our issues and goes a long way towards aiding our ongoing advocacy efforts. Voicing our opinions and concerns in a peaceful manner is the �American way� of doing things and Immigration Voice is the platform for future Americans like us to voice our opinions and concerns.
State chapters organize workshops, participate in community events like fairs and marathons, and help arrange media interviews, organize advocacy events like lawmaker meets and rallies, help in raising funds towards advocacy and running the organization. State Chapter members are always verified by the chapter leaders. Most often, the core team shares updates with chapter leaders who in turn share these updates with the chapter members. Chapter leaders keep the members of their state involved, recruit more members and help organize activities and events. Besides joining and participating in state chapters, we need other active volunteers to join us in different teams which are working in specific area like the media group, the newsletter group, the advocacy group etc. Each of these groups is led by dedicated members who work with members in formulating IV documents and strategies.
We also want to urge our members to generously contribute to our cause. We as a non-profit organization depend on your contributions to work on various media and advocacy activities. By quoting the famous words of Martin Luther King Jr. �The time is always right to do what is right.� We request our members to join a state chapter by following the link
http://immigrationvoice.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=72&Itemid=52
and look for your state chapter information. If your state chapter does not exist or is not active, you can start the chapter by contacting Immigration Voice at info@immigrationvoice.org .

Dear Friends:
I also have a similar question on traveling abroad for 4 weeks with my 485 pending.
As you all know that when we applied our 485 AOS (EB-based) we had to also submit the copy of our latest 1-94 card (which I did). Now that I am leaving the US, I will be handing over the original 1-94 at the port of exit (a copy of which was submitted with the 485 application). Then when returing, I will be receiving another new 1-94. So my questions:
(a) Will I have to re-send the INS another copy of my new 1-94 when I return to the US (b) also might surrendering the old 1-94 and getting new one confuse my 485 records with the INS (c) Finally, do any of you know of anyone who with 485 pending, a valid H1B visa, and no Advanced Parole has had any problems returning back to the US?
Please advise, and that would be so appreciated. Regards.

Yha i got my EAD through Spouse.
Is corp to corp a better option or should i ask my other XYZ company to file for my H1B?
Okay..Here is the deal..If you are on H1B currently and do NOT have any paystubs for longer than a month (usually), then you face the risk of getting an RFE from USCIS regarding your status.
This is YMMV meaning you may get it or you may not, nobody can say for sure...It all depends on how closely USCIS looks at your case.
If you have been on H1B status without paystubs longer than 183 calendar days, you have bigger problems. My recommendation in that case is to get a good attorney ASAP.
If you feel your case status so far does not have any major legal or immigration issues, my suggestion is to use the EAD to work and make sure you renew it on time and stay in AOS. The downside to that is if your spouse's 485 has any issues and gets denied, then you are immediately out of status. (If that happens, you probably have more to worry about than just your status)
As always, take the above with a pinch of salt and consult an attorney in moments of doubt...!
Thanks!

I am having a little difficulty understanding this. If you are not so sure about approval in EB3 category how do you plan to apply in EB2 category? Moreover what makes you think that your EB3 I-140 may be denied? Even if it is a Labor substitution case if your application is strong, you should not have any issues. Your employer must support your EB2 application otherwise it is not possible.

The url forward is for admins to decide. What does it really buy us.
But the home page clearly states this:-
Immigration Voice is a national non-profit organization (501 (c) (4)) working to alleviate the problems faced by legal high-skilled future Americans in the United States. We act as an interface between this set of immigrants and the legislative and executive branches of the government.
I think this makes it clear we are talking about legal skilled folks.
just my 2 cents.
