Another question is when using AC-21 to change jobs via H1b transfer, (or even EAD for that matter)
how does one bring up the topic of AC-21 to the employer?
Is is as simple a putting a condition to them saying hey "I will need an employment verification letter from you to ensure that my 485 process started with my previous employer will not be hindered."
(I am not talking desi consulting coy...but other companies where the HR person might not have a clue of what AC21 is!)

Our finger prints does not change. They have our FP on their system. Providing new finger prints does not add any value to our case or US security.
Additional FPs just result in wastage of resources for us and USCIS (eventually tax payers). They can utilize same resouces for processing applications in FIFO.

I am in the same boat. They are taking way too long to process H1-B extensions.
Its the same with I-140 too. My application has been pending at VSC for 7 months now and no signs of it being transferred to TSC or NSC for processing or if it will be processed at VSC itself. There is no sign of PP starting anytime soon either. It is such a painful situation to be in. Would it be of any help, if we can contact the USCIS Ombudsman???

My F1 grace period is almost ending. I filed the change of status application to take H4 status and I have received the receipt for it. It says it takes about 100-150 days for the decision. My employer is going to apply for my H1B on April 1, 2006 and I think I will not have the H4 approval by then. Is it possible to apply for H1B with this pending H4 situation? I am concerned since my F1 grace period will end in a week. Will there be any problem at all?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Hello members,
I had a non-traffic citation few years ago, which got dismissed and expunged. I do not have any documents relating to that incidence. I don't even recall the charges. I did background check with Sheriff's office which showed no records.
How should I present this on form I-485 (question about citation/arrest)?

Josh, I'm so blown away by those atomic bomb looking clouds that I never even got to the one with the deer! (Nik had some atomic bombs over a barn last week also). I think you make all the relevent points; the first 2 certainly can benefit from some post processing in Photoshop. Those clouds are really it, but the needed something else to frame it, branches, grasses, something. I noticed that the horizon was treed, so assumed that the shore on which Kenny was standing had some trees, I "framed" the pic as if it were shot with trees framing it. Attached is the result which shows how finding objects to create a "frame" for the picture can make a world of difference. Also, I had to guess at the actual sunset color scheme. Since I wasn't there, I opted for the most dramatic. (hope you don't mind me messing with your pic Kenny, but it lent itself well to the discussion of framing and processing and illustrates better than words what I am getting at).
Other than higlighting a few things, I kind of like the deer one the way it is. It's almost a "where's Waldo", but that's what I like about it. Nature itself plays the "where's Waldo" game on us.

Update to my case. Submitted Originally on July 2nd for I-140/I-1485. USCIS Sent back everything on Aug�28 stating Original Labor missing. Attorney sent back the case on Sep 11th with a cover letter that the labor could be requested by USCIS to DOL. The copy of ETA9089 & certified online copy was attached with the original case. I was hoping that they will accept the case this time as I have seen similar cases where they accept the case and issue RFE at a later date. Attorney also mentioned that he got receipts for similar cases like this.
Today- USCIS returned back the application (both I-140 & I-1485) with the letter saying that the dates are not current even though the date stamped was July 2nd on the case. I talked to attorney and he is planning to send the case back to them giving examples on the similar cases and putting a strong cover letter. The final plan of action still needs to be finalized. Looks like I am the unlucky one presently from the batch of 400 K applications. I don�t know how to express my pain, agony frustration I have gone through the last 4 months. I don�t have words to express myself but just feel so terribly sad and disappointed from this whole process I have been going through... I am also planning to contact the local senators /congressman and sought their help & attention.

pbojja, you have contradicted yourself. In 1) you say "No need to File for 140";
Then in 3) you say "They approve Faster in a month" - Which does not make sense if you don't file right?
Could you enlighten us? Also, what do you mean by Happy & Unhappy scenario, only one of them as to be the legit way, no?
Man I was just kidding with Happy scenario , we wish things work our way with CIS , I clearly mentioned unhappy scenario is the reality

EB-1s for Indians and Chinese are also expected to be current. For EB-2, India is expected to have a cut off date of January 8, 2003 and for China the cut off date will be April 22, 2005.
For EB-3, according to Jan, the worldwide cut off date will be August 1, 2002, India will be May 8, 2001 and China will be April 22, 2005.
Jan also reports that 18,000 EB-3 for Indians have been processed in this fiscal year with 8,000 of those cases approved in June and 7,000 in July. By the way, the annual EB-3 limit for Indians is 2,800 so go figure.
Also, approximately 40,000 cases were received at the Texas Service Center on July 2nd and 35,000 were received in Nebraska.
One final amazing fact that Jan has learned - USCIS requested 66,600 (666!) visa numbers from the beginning of the fiscal year through the end of May and 66,800 numbers in June and July.
Why is this good news? Jan 8, 2003 and May 8, 2001 are not good news to me at least.

Administrators, I am sure the question from "bluekayal" was an innocent one.
Honestly, I believe in IV as an organization which does not differentiate race, gender, country, category etc.
I am well aware that there are lot of ladies who are well represented in IV Core and its initiatives. I understand very well, how much they contribute when they volunteer for IV activities, especially after everything that a woman does with juggling time between family and work.
Also I am sure others will understand that there are more advisors who are not men, but they probably would not have agreed to present themselves yet, publicly as part of the board for ImmigrationVoice.
Again, hats off to all your efforts & no need to remove the hats to scratch your head...;)
Thanks bluekayal, we appreciate your comments. At this time we can just share with you that IV works with many more advisers and this is a partial list, based on the formalities and complexities of public announcement.
IV does not make judgment based on any denomination that divides us as humans. Frankly, we are scratching our head with your comments.

My girlfriend is an Australian citizen and I am an Indian citizen.
Her uncle and cousins immigrated to the US years ago and she seems to have a Family-Based Immigrant VISA under category F4.
Her parents have greencards too.
She believes her greencard was filed for her by her uncle after he got his US Citizenship.
1. Can this be the case? ( Can an uncle file a green card for a niece? Or was it filed by the cousins? )
Does she or does she not have a green card in her hand?
We were recently browsing the USCIS site and it seems she still has to maintain continious residence in the US for 3 more years to be eligible for naturalization.
This is after she receives the greencard...not merely by staying in the U.S on a non-immigrant visa. What is her legal status now?
2. Is it mandatory for green card holders to have 5 years in the US to be eligible for naturalization regardless from the country they are from?
Yes.
I mean, a lot of immigrants come from India, China etc, but applications from Australia are a lot less.
Will she, being an Australian citizen, have to wait for 5 years just like immigrants from India, China etc have to? Or can she wait in the US for less time?
All immgrants except ones in the U.S military will have to wait 5 years to become citizen AFTER obtaining the greencard (I think the spouse of an U.S citizen may get it in 3 years). There is a seperate wait time for greencard based on country of nationality. So, again, does she have a green card already or is she staying on non-immigrant visa?
3. We would love to get married soon. I don't have any immigrant or dual intent VISAs for the US nor am I very much interested in going to the US either.
However, her uncle has told her that her greencard would be revoked if she got married to me before getting her US Citizenship.
Not true.
Is this just empty an threat from her uncle or are there really restrictions on how person with a greencard can get married or not?
Spouses of green card holders who are aliens have a typical 5 year wait (especially if you are from India) to get a green card
4. Are not all greencards created equal?
Most green cards are but, the road to getting them is not equal. Also, some of the green cards have a restriction of 2 years initially (also known as conditional green cards) when you are married to a U.S citizen for example.
5. Is there any way by which we can verify, by ourselves, what is the category and type of greencard she has?
If she has a green card, that is all there is to it (unless she obtained it via marriage which may have a conditional 2 year validity initially). It is an immigrant visa without restrictions. As long as no laws are broken while receiving it and thereafter, she can apply for your green card as a spouse.
Any special serial numbers/markings/etc?
I would love to have contacts of good immigration attorneys either in Hyderabad, India or San Francisco, US in case this case is complicated
Please post this in the lawyers section so that an immigration attorney can help if he/she is from SFO.
