Sometimes in your life you make bad decisions. It happened unfortunately, because my PD is June 2004 EB2 and when dates became current last year, I thought it needs to move just 3 months to have my date current and as per DOS release there were only 3400 visas in EB2 for 2004.
Unluckily I chose for CP instead of 485 and now lying in a dark well.
Anyway please don't sympathize, I'll certainly come out of this situation very soon.
Pls check with your lawyer if you can change to AOS from CP... Then you'll be entitled for all the AOS benefits.. I know few of my friends did filed for CP instead of AOS and maintained their H1/H4 status... So no choice is good or bad.. it keeps changing :-)
Since AOS can convert to CP.. I think it should be possible otherway too...

Also, if you google there was precedent with some guy from India. Who had similar agreement and left the company. The company sued him and lost, appealed and lost. The guy sued back and won, the company paid $200,000+ something expenses. The case was long ago, I don't remember the link.

Well, everyone wishes the rumour to be true.
But you know what, to realize the increase in fees for the I-485, they should allow people to file for it. Unless people start filing for I-485's they are not going to make the $2billion in 2 yrs. If retrogression continues, guess the fee increase doesn't make much sense.... Not sure whether I am right or wrong here.
Well, you are bringing up a very good point. May be we can setup a webfax event to USCIS, for allowing us to I-485 even if PD is not current, so that they can reap the exact benefit of this fees hike.
Core members - what say you???

All;
The problem here is not just the TB skin test, but the blood test that tests for HIV and the other STD. It is mandatory for the Civil surgeon to draw blood and check for these. My civil surgeon told me he will not accept these 2 tests from any other doctor. I got the TB skin test done at a local clinic before the medical appointment and he accepted that.
Also, XRAY's are NOT madatory. Only if you have a positive reaction to the skin test then you are required to do the XRAY to rule out TB.
About, sending the medical reports later, all discusssions here point to the fact that there is no concensus. It would be every attorneys call if they want to submit without the medicals. But, remember USCIS document clearly states that you are REQUIRED to submit medicals. No where does it mention that you can send it later on. So, in the event that you do not submit your Medicals and they reject your I-485, you will really have NO legal basis to appeal other than make a plea.
I also agree with the person who warned you about the flights getting delayed. You are cutting it too close! Your wife needs to come back earlier. If this is an emergency, then she should come back, get medicals done, submit I-485 and then go back. All this can be achieved in about 4-5 days. Ask for an EMERGENCY appointment at the consulate. PLEAD your case. Dont walk away from the consulate till they give you an EMERGENCY Appointment
I strongly suggest that she shoudl catch the next flight back and return. You are not going to get this "chance" anytime soon again.
What will be the basis for emergency appointment ? I was strictly warned not to mention AOS as the basis for the request as it can seriously harm.

Not necessarily 4 mother in laws; the wives could be sisters.
So the number of parents-in-laws, x, is bounded above and below according to Indian law as follows:
2<=x<=20.
lol, i see fantasies are growing. A person may not have mother-in-law at all - why can't he marry to both: daughter and mother?
i guess the formula becomes 0<=x<=20... this is sick...

There were times when I was really depressed, specially when I got delayed in New Delhi with "Name clearance" for H-1 renew. However, I believed in higher power and never lost hope. My parents (mother US citizen,father GC) always kept my spirits high. I also got a lot of support at my job (when I got stuck in India, my chief pulled all strings possible to get me cleared).
I also had a backup plan, where I could go to Canada or worst, can go back to India where I have an established practice.
Botomline, do not loose hope and work hard.
Congratulations Dinesh! I feel very happy for you.
Could you take some time out and let us know about your H1B delay in India?
Thanks

This is the part I don't understand, during Efile on the intrsuctions list, it never says that you have to send photos
Here is the list
DO attach one copy of this Confirmation Receipt as a cover page for the supporting documentation that you
are submitting.
� DO keep the extra copy of the Confirmation Receipt and the copy of the application for your records.
� DO NOT send a copy of your e-filed application with your supporting documentation.

Thank you very much !
visit your senator's website. Look for links for "casework". Look for contact person for immigration. Call your senator's office at that number. Explain your problem. They will ask you to write a letter giving your case information and requesting them to find out the status. Some senator offices may require you to fill some form in a format pertinent to them with the intention of giving the senator's office permission to inquire on your behalf and to give access to your personal information.
Once they have letter from you they will contact USCIS on your behalf. They will tell you by when they will hear back from USCIS. Make sure you do not call them repeatedly, call them when they ask you to call them or call them after a reasonable amount of time i.e. 2 weeks.

This is my first post so forgive if I am not in the right place,
But I have situation where in I need your inputs to decide.
I am working at a clients place and they willing offer me a full time position.
My Labor is approved Oct 2007 and Filed for I-140 receipt pending.
In this situation should I change my job or should I wait for I 140 to be approved or wait till I apply for I 485 , but as you know the priority dates have retrogressed for EB2 and I heard that they will be unavailable shortly.
I always wanted to get a full time right from my Masters but ended up as a consultant as I had to get my H1 done.
Please Advice!
I would suggest to wait for I-140 to be approved. Once I-140 is approved , PD belongs to you. You can then move to another employer and then restart GC and port the PD with the new employer when they file for I-140. There is a grey area where I am not sure if old employer withdraws I-140 , if you will still be able to port the PD. Some say you cannot port previous PD if previous I-140 is withdrawn due fraud or misrepresentation. Some say if its withdrawn then thats sufficient to lose the old PD no matter what the reason of withdrawl is.

For all Eb3s along with EB2s with PD after April 2005, the movement in the coming visa bulletins wont be much encoraging unless the new Obama government does something significant about employent based category or immigrationvoice does a fruitful lobbying. The doings of something by obama government to employment based category is not in our hands. The only thing we could do is to help IV and help ourrselves by contributing to it to reach its financial target for better lobbying. Or else wait for the Visa Bulletin every month with great hopes, sorry dreams, for your PD to become current, and satisfy with your EADs for years ahead
"new obama government"?? Jumping the gun a bit are'nt we? (elections are still far away and you have assumed the result?)
I second the suggestion to call the lawmakers.

judging by how much class you're displaying sorry to say your pet dog deserves a gc more than you do. :p
If CP filers are included in IV wish list, a small request for IV:
I have a pet dog in my home country that I love. I want to bring the dog to USA to live with me. Is it possble for IV to add this additional point in the letter campaign. 'All I485 filers and CP filers should be allowed to bring their pets and pets should also be allocated greencards to live here permanently.' Afterall we consider them part of our family and family values and unification is very important for EB immigrants as well.

Things seems to be so messy that Ron has very cleverly avoided any speculation about the coming up visa bulletin.
http://www.immigration-information.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5185
Ron Gotcher cannot predict the July 2008 visa bulletin, following is what he says.
Historically, about 40% of all immigrant visas/adjustment approvals take place in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year (July - September). The law prohibits the issuance of more than 27% of the quota in any of the first three quarters. All visas that are unused (ordered but not issued) must be returned for use in the fourth quarter. This is why we see most visas being issued in the July - September interval.
This year, there is anecdotal evidence that the government may have violated the law and issued more visas in the first three quarters than permitted by statute. No one really knows if this is true or just the result of inartful language used by government officials. No one has released any absolute numbers as to actual issuances.
If the government did violate the law, then all bets are off and there is no way to anticipate what might be in the works.
If they did not violate the law, however, we can infer certain things from what we have seen thus far. We know that the CIS has enough AOS applications in the existing inventory (backlog) to fill the annual quota four times over. If they were processing with any degree of efficiency, cutoff dates would be backlogged worse that what they were at the start of the fiscal year last October. They aren't.
Because the CIS isn't processing cases at a rate sufficient to exhaust the annual quota, the State Department has had to move cutoff dates forward in order to attract more applicants to file overseas with consulates. This allows the State Department to step up and process immigrant visa applications and help exhaust the quota.
We know that CIS processing has been deficient this year because we have seen forward cutoff date movement. If the CIS were processing large numbers of cases, not only would forward cutoff date movement be wholly unnecessary, it would be grossly irresponsible.
Given the forward movement earlier in the year, I certainly expected to see substantial movement in June. That did not happen. Why it didn't happen is unknown. It could be that the CIS, wishing to avoid a repeat of last year, dropped everything an adjudicated a massive number of cases. I doubt that happened because we haven't seen any evidence of it. Had they approved a huge number of cases in a short period of time, it would have been all over the Internet.
It could also be that, once again, the CIS has solemnly promised the State Department that they really will adjudicate a huge number of cases this time and all those other years where they made the same promise and then failed to follow through don't really count because this time they really mean it.
Whatever the reason for the lack of movement in June, July will tell us what is going to happen for the balance of the fiscal year. If there is no substantial movement in July, then we are unlikely to see much movement in August or September. If there is substantial movement in July, however, we can probably expect to see a retrogression in September.
The July visa bulletin should be out around Monday, July 14th. Let's see what happens.

Regardless of the incorrect forum to tell about yourself, your story has serious flaws.
you are just telling us your side of a photoshopped story.
Even after you are here illegally, you can correct things and take a legal turn. there are so many cases where people who have overstayed or crossed over illegally, got themselves deported and or brought themselves out of the closet and applied and got their citizenships.
Also, bcos you spent 30 years in the country, you should be given a priority over a kid from your country who kept applying for a green card lottery every year, trying to enter the US legally?
to make matters worse, you stayed illegally in a country and did not follow the rule of law.
1. I am beyond the �waiting for my delayed Green-Card� and �attempting to correct my ilegal status� stage. I am not new to immigration, I�m true to immigration.
2. I am no longer fighting for my rights. I�m OK. I�m in my own country with all rights available to me and am offered a Waiver by the U.S. to visit my friends, family and loved ones when I want. Today I�m fighting for my USC Immediate Relatives� rights from my country. How many of you high&mighty can say that? Probably never will too. You�d have to walk in my shoes and from my view none of you except for 24ps can fit them, though sledge_hammer might have to learn how to walk in them. He/she sounds a lot like me in my smug and cocky drug peddling and trafficking days. Clue, sledge_hammer: The key to expertise does not lie in what you do but in how you do it. Obligating an unrequested personal opini�n on someone is quite negligent and incompetent of a professional. But I guess that�s what�s expected of IV while you�re dug in here, hunh? How unfortunate.
3. You who are new to immigration can probably learn a lot from my case if you weren�t so caught up in your virgin-eared-newbies image. Like anyone�s going to believe that. Anyone who�s anyone already knows all you want is your Green Card or for whatever human right you feel is being overlooked in this life to be acknowledged while you�re still alive � like me. Let�s hope none of you will ever need an individual such as myself to understand your case anytime in the future. God bless you in all your endeveours.
