AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
There has been a lot of talk recently about what might be included in an immigration reform bill. Will there be a legalization/amnesty/forgiveness of "lawbreakers" rule? Will there be an expansion of employment based and family based immigrant visa numbers to solve the economically devastating backlogs we currently deal with? Will there be a mandatory E-Verify component? Will there be an interior enforcement focus? Will there be even more fences?
The topic that seems to be lost in all this speculation is something I consider to be the overriding component of reform--the Key to holding a reform package together. I am speaking, of course, of Due Process Restoration. Anyone who deals with immigrants for any length of time is intimately familiar with the disaster that is our immigration enforcement system. It is not just that previous administrations have done a horrific job at the enforcement that should have been taking place, but rather, the missing component to that enforcement. When is the last time an ICE officer worried about Due Process considerations? What is really destroying immigrant families--how about 212(a)(9)(B) and (C)? What about the concept of "civil" detention in real jails with real criminals for non-criminal immigrants? What about the detention of Asylum Seekers? What about the ludicrous requirements of REAL ID for asylum seekers?
These are all only a few of the regular violations of concepts most American hold sacred. When you tell the 'average' American about the system immigrants actually have to deal with, most are appropriately appalled. It is to those Americans that we must speak. I believe that if Senator Schumer has the courage to include Due Process Restoration in his "Comprehensive" immigration reform bill, it will be tragically necessary for us to defend these Due Process provisions of the reform package.
Take a look at this video, and sign up to support including Due Process Restoration in a comprehensive immigration reform bill.

You should not apply 6 months in advance. You should apply 3 months in advance because if you do 6 months they might approve in a month from the date you applied and the new ead will start from the day it gets approved. Applied 6 months in adv and now lost the rest of the months of current ead. Dont listen to the customer service guys they dont know anything. They told to apply 6 months in adv and when I called them after approval they were helpless to even replace it for the actual term.

shruthi07,
Which state you are working in? If USCIS thinks Nebraska Service centre has the jurisdication for your I-485 based on Job location then their is nothing to worry.
Maybe your PD is current and USCIS wants to complete processing of your I-485.
I am in the same situation, my I-140 was approved from TSC about 3 months back in March 2008, and I-485 pending at NSC since august 2007. I work out of WA state.

I can feel your concern, jk. Am in the same situation. We just got our GC along with our daughter, EB2, PD of Aug02. Our son, however, turned 21 in 2004 and missed the boat because labor was stuck in BEC till 2007.
The rule is that the child should be less than 21 at the time 485 is applied. The CSPA of 2001 gives credit for the time 140 was pending. In most cases this effectively means that the age is locked on the date of 140 application.
The CSPA does not give credit for the time labor is pending. Labor pending was not backlogged when CSPA was enacted, 140 was. Hence the law.
I do not know if there is any way out. I have heard that the aged-out child might be able to claim the PD of the parents if and when s/he applies for GC based on own employment. Nothing authentic, though.

I guess your H4 is not approved yet and continuing your employment on H1B. Your best course of action would be to have your employer file an extension (beyond 6 years) for H1B and get a 3-year approval (with approved I-140). You can change jobs after this but if you don't want to take this path you can still find a new employer before end of march and apply for H1B to get a 3-Year H1B. You will need to restart your PERM and go through the whole process with your new employer ASAP.
So I am not able to apply for a new H1B while on H4? Thanks!

My Case:
Company A applied for GC citing future employment.
Got the EAD.
Currently I am in the pay roll of Company B(sister concern of A) in H1.
What are the things I have to do if I have to work in EAD? Can I use AC21 and move on? Do I have to work for Company A atleast for sometime?
If A sponsored you for your future employment, and still stands to it, there is no AC21. You can continue to work for B on EAD, and join A when you get your GC. If in the meantime, you can find another job offer same/simllar to what A offerred, and prefer to work that one you can join that company as per AC21 provisions

My wife has very smooth and sweaty hands. When i applied for Canadian immigration during FBI FP process even after n no. of attempts we couldnt get good prints on FP Sheet using INK.
It is electronic imaging, with very advnced technology. It immediately analyzes, whether it is legible or not, so that if illegible, repeated operations can be performed. I hope that she will not have any problem.

Lets see what moderators have to say about these threads ... I guess we should be ashamed ourselves to be called "highly skilled" and "educated".
For an outsider , there is no difference between one type of Indian or other . These people need to get a life.
Well said. Some people jsut need to grow up and mature.

Hi
Can someone let me know if we can go a PCP and take medication for INH for 9 months for a positive skin test and negative x-ray.
Or it is a rule that we need to go only to local county health dept.

Can anyone please reply.
Your wife can apply for SSN and can work on using EAD. This will not affect your status. You can still work on H1.

What I feel is nothing wrong with this idea. Since the job market is sluggish people may be skeptical about the prospect of getting a job in this market but if you are providing some technologies that they can learn in less time and get some promising jobs they will definitely come and join. One should make sure that the candidates should be given consultation/help in getting jobs also. Here probably start with some familiar courses for less fee/no fee in the beginning and try to get some referrals and slowly try to establish it.
Good luck in your venture.

I did change my address when my 140 is pending, i did take care of AR11 form and after that you will be given a screen for change of address on the pending applications, i did do that too.
After 3 days LUD was also changed with the new address change, i received a letter from USCIS about the change of my address on file.
My 140 also approved successfully on 08/15/2007

Here's a sticky question - and appreciate "expert" advise on the matter:
My situation:
1. I currently work on a H1B for Company A
2. My future greencard has been filed by Company B - recd. EAD, applied 485
My question:
1. Can I work on my EAD either for company A or any other company?
Yes, you can work for any company, but with similar job description mentioned in your LC
2. What happens if I dont join Company B ever?
well this is a broad subject, I'll try to put it this way.
when you applied for AOS which I suppose is employment based, your intent is to work with the sponsoring employer on a "permanent position" (at least 6 months after the GC approval) and your sponsoring employers intent is to employee you on permanent position (again atleast 6 months after GC approval), so by never joining your sponsoring employer you are violating/contradicting the primary intent of Employment based AOS application which can lead to revoking of your GC in future or it might cause problems during your naturalization
