Provided there is no retro . There can be following situations:
a) 250 equally distributed in Oct, Nov and Dec and the date moves 1 week at a time to 28th May in Dec 10.
b) 750 in Oct moving the date to 22nd or 28th May and then stuck there till Dec
Again depending on if USCIS does quarterly SO then in Dec dates may move to Aug 06.
I think with similar SO as FY2010 the PD will get close to July2007 by the Sep2011 VB. But whether the PDs will move ahead smoothly or in chunks having large periods of inactivity followed by 5-6 month jumps, thats something no one can predict.

Hi Guys,
As i said earlier my I-140 was denied for the reason below
I have US masters and 4+years of US job experience and My I-140 was filed in EB2 using a Substitution labor which as the education/experience requirements of (14) Masters+1years experience or (15) Bachelors + 3Years Experience and it was denied without RFE saying the Labor certification used is not suitable for EB2 as they say EB2 labor should be requiring "Masters or BS+5Years Exp", which makes sense.
My Attorney filed an MTR (I290B) on 03/11/2008 and requested the USCIS NSC center to re-consider my case as EB-3 instead as EB2.
Today 03/21/08 i just got an update from USCIS saying:
Current Status: Appeal/Motion/Certification sent to Administrative Appeals Office for review.
On March 21, 2008, we sent this case to the Administrative Appeals Office for review. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, call customer service.
1- So now what are the chances of my I-140 getting approved and how many days does the AAO take to make any decision on this?
2- And for my 485/EAD/AP/FP i did not get any message saying that they are denied and my wife is still working on her EAD on advice of the attorney and as the I-140 is with AAO can she still continue the same job until the decision is made on the I-140 and 485.
Please help me out and advice on what should i be doing at this point and what are my options on this.
Thank you all for your advices and help.

You will not jeopardize your I-485 as long as job with company C is in same or similar occupation. Whether USCIS will grant an H-1 3 year extension based on a withdrawn/revoked I-140 is not certain. I outlined the reasons for this uncertainty in my response on the thread entitled "Facing Layoff---6 months left..."
Thanks Ann for your reply.
So in short, B to C H1 transfer/extension is usually not possible if I-140 is revoked.

My labor was filed with job title from the employer as IT Lead (O*Net Code - 11-3021.00, O*Net title - Computer and Information Systems Managers). I am having an opportunity to convert to full-time on EAD (I-140 approved, EAD received 18months back). The new job title is Software Engineer(possible O*Net codes - 15-1032.00/15-1021.00/15-1031.00, possible O*Net title - Computer Software Engineer/Computer Programmer). Is it possible to file AC21 in this scenario. The salary and the job descriptions for both the Labor filing and the new opportunity are similar. I am worried if the title might cause a problem. I have to make a decision very soon. Please help.
as far i have learnt from the discussions in forms "Title" should not be a problem.
But the O*Net Code should be the same.
Meaning new job should fall under the same job code.
Thanks,
Krishna

When I went to my county health dept to get vaccination shots (for medical exam), they asked me to see the civil surgeon first, "else you will pay lot more for shots that you do not need". I gave them the standard list (MMR, Polio, DTaP, Influenza type B, Hepatitis B), and there are a few more in (page 3 of) I-693 form (http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-693.pdf). Someone on this thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5553) (second-last post) says you may need a shorter list based on your age group. Did anyone recently take these shots, and can she/he give the correct list here?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I want to apply for AP but I'm not sure if I qualify and I don't want to get rejected as I cannot afford to lose the money. I am here on F-1 visa and got married and subsequently have applied for I-485 and got receipt for it.
1. Can I apply for advanced parole?
2. I want to go home and visit family and/or have AP in case I need to leave. Is this a valid reason? Is this what I write as my reason on form?
Thanks.

I had a lot of emotional and financial distress upon my graduation and I didn't get to apply for OPT. What do I do?
I mean I know I need to go speak with the dept that handles intl students in my school?
But, like, any pointers or information to please assist me?
Any constructive information/help, will be useful!
Also, I am looking into getting into graduate school within the next yr to yr and half!
If you graduated 1 year ago and was no longer a student in this last year, and did not apply for OPT before graduation, then you are already out of status - your F1 status ceased when you graduated. Moreover, your I-94 most likely said D/S. So the I-94 covered your stay only during the time you maintained F1 status. So you have been accruing illegal presence time. 6 month of illegal presence would trigger 3 year ban on reentering US; and 1 year or more would trigger a 10 year ban.
The prudent thing for you to do is to go back to your home country, and come back with a proper VISA.

Hi,
In anticipation of birth certificate RFE, i have BC affidavits (from parents and relatives) and NAC ready to submit it will be requested. However, my priority date is not current and god knows, when it will be current.....My question is: Is there a validity period for these BC affidavits and NAC documents? It is almost one year since these documents are made ready and I was wondering if these documents lose their validity one year after the signed date on them?
Please suggest
Thanks

I believe when DOS calculated the Eb2 China demand data for July, they might have taken all apps pending from Nov22 2005 till Dec 31 2005. Considering the apps prior to Nov 22 2005 as demand for June 2010.
Same for Eb2 India from Feb1 2005 till Dec 31 2005. To make note is India dates did not change in June so the demand remains the same for that year.
My 2 C
All this inventory etc dosent make sense ,
Pending EB2 cases for china are around 2000 as per USCIS inventory .
but as per DOS Demand data its only 500 ..
God Knows whats Happening .

Thanks for the information.
say for eg, there is a $1000 fee for my 485, does this include spouse's 485 also?
Or I have to pay seperate $1000 for spouse's 485?

Hello All,
I am planning to start working for a new company starting June. I was wondering If I can start H1B visa transfer to the new company via premium processing(hopefully will get approved in 2-3 weeks) and continue to work for the current employer and get paid till the end of May, even the though the transfer would have been approved in the end of April.
Thanks in advance.

Hello everybody,
My wife who is on H4 was denied admission to a masters in accounting program due to lack of work experience. Other factors (GPA/GMAT scores) were allright according to a professor at the university! Does anybody know how/where she can get some experience (voluntary/unpaid/intership). We have already looked at craigslist job listing in the non-profit sector and not many people are looking to hire even if its unpaid:eek: We reside in Raleigh/NC and was wondering if someone in this forum has some insight as to how we can move forward.
:confused:
Skark
Please understand that by law they can hire you ONLY if a position presumes volunteer work. If there are other similar positions that ARE PAID, you are out of luck.
My wife is a chemist. That's even worse.
Best wishes!

You have some nice images, but I would think they are most of all interesting to the people whose faces you have photographed. It's not my taste, a bit gruesome, but it looks well done as far as I can judge it.
I second the suggestion to upload your critique images to dphoto, use your personal gallery. I think members of this site will be more inclined to write some comments here than at any other linked site.
