Even one of your reputed member (Rajiv Khanna @ immigration.com) posted in his website that chance of winning the law suit is very minimum.
He posted in his website as follows: "Please note folks, I don�t think this class will be easily approved by courts. CIS could argue a lot of things against it, which I don�t wish to publish in an open forum."
Corrections.
1. RK is no longer a member of AILA.
2. Also, in this specific quote, RK is not talking about the outcome of the law suit. He's only talking about the chance of the court accepting the defined "class".
On a separate note, RK has mentioned on several occasions, winning the lawsuit is a long shot. You can even hear his recorded conference call from last week.
Thanks,
Jayant

Hi,
I just asked my attorney if she had a direct contact with Mr. Opperheim, the person responsible for VB. If she does respond, I will provide the address / email here. I am writing to them. It does not make any sense. My opinion is that they are giving USCIS a December brake now. If the 485 report released by USCIS is true and reliable, the RoW dates for Dec should have been moved to mid or end of 2003 now.

As Per my knowledge it is not nessesary that all approved I140's will have a A#.
Senior members please correct me if i am wrong. Also i would appreciate if you can explain what is the criteria to get a A# in case of approved I140.
Regards.
it's the A# in your 140 approved petitioin.
Generally spouses won't have this until they get the 485 receipt so they can leave it blank in the 485 application but the principle applicant should have from the 140.

I see some words 'brightest', and 'high-skilled'. Who is classified as 'brightest' and 'high-skilled'?
Can EB immigrants expect something out of CIR?
Senator Charles E. Schumer (http://schumer.senate.gov/new_website/record.cfm?id=314990)
6. We must encourage the world�s best and brightest individuals to come to the United States and create the new technologies and businesses that will employ countless American workers, but must discourage businesses from using our immigration laws as a means to obtain temporary and less-expensive foreign labor to replace capable American workers; and finally
------------------------
////////////////////////
------------------------
Sixth, we need to recognize the important contribution that high-skilled immigrants have already made, and must continue to make, toward revitalizing and reinventing the American economy.
No immigration system would be worthwhile if it is unable to attract the best and brightest minds of the world to come to the United States and create jobs for Americans�as has been the case for Yahoo, Google, Intel, E-Bay, and countless other companies.
That being said, any reformed immigration system must be successful in encouraging the next Albert Einstein to emigrate permanently to the United States while, at the same time, discouraging underpaid, temporary workers from taking jobs that could and should be filled by qualified American workers.

I have a passport expiry and new visa stamping conflict. My last visa stamping expired on Oct 01, 2009. And my current (Indian)passport expiration date is July 04, 2011. Also, my H1b approval is under the transfer process (so I don't have the new I-797 as yet). I'm planning to travel to India sometime in January, expecting the new H1b approval soon now.
Should i get my passport renewed here before leaving for India ? I believe you can renew one year in advance of pasport expiry date either here or in IndiaI'm worried if they will give me a new passport valid only for a year as a note on the website says "A passport is also issued for one year in cases of expiry of valid U.S. residence visa. In such cases, applicants have to apply for extension of validity as soon as valid U.S. Residence visa is approved. There is no fee for extension of validity of passport."
Since my last visa stamping has expired and I will soon have a new H1B, if i go for a new visa stamping, will I be given a visa with validity until my passport expiry ? Or, I can get my passport renewed in India and then go for the stamping? you will be given visa for the duration you are eligible for and not based on the pasport expiry date, however, when renetering your I-94 could be limited to the pasport expiry date even though visa is of longer duration. So ideally you would get pasport extended here and then go for the stampingI'm afraid I may not have enough days to squeeze in both when I visit. Or, if i get my passport renewed here, are they going to give me a new passport only valid for a year since I don't have any valid visa stamping but a valid I797? Dont understand why you would be given a one year passport?? Never heard about that but others might help out with that information
Please advise.
Thank you.

On Monday (11/27) I got EAD card. There was wrong in "from valid Date"
My Current EAD expires on Feb 27th 2007 and I received New EAD Valid from 11/28/2007 to 11/27/2008.
- I called Customer service First time they have told me to resend I-765, Original EAD and letter telling, what is wrong.
- Second time when I called customer service and explain issue, She transferred me to Immigration office. I got Immigration officer from Los Angles and He told me same thing to re-send all documents again without Fee
- Third time, I called VSC and talk to officer and he look my case and realized the mistake and told me , he will take care and send me new EAD card with proper validate date but when I asked me case number or reference number, he told me that you have to wait for 30 day to get new card.
- I also took InfoPass appointment tomorrow and see what local INS office suggest me.
- Tomorrow I am going to call Vermount centre and discuss and then send I-765 forms , Original EAD and letter explaining the issue.

Hi,
Can I apply for AC 21 and H1B Transfer (to the new employer) together so that I can maintain my H1 status plus EAD/AP?

I came back to US on Mar 30 2008 using advance parole. The officer wrote on I-94 , paroled until Mar 29, 2008 (I am assuming its an oversight).
I didnt detect the oversight till yesterday. What my current status and what actions should I take to rectify the error.
I am still working for my employer that sponsored the H1B which is valid till Feb 2009, although the stamp on the passport was valid only till Feb 2008
Thanks
For I-485 Applicant, it is not of much significance.
At POE, AP is stamped for one year (with I-94), but when it expires, it does not matter. One can continue working on H1 or EAD. And if someone is in USA on H4 (and not working on EAD) also remains in vaild status.
So there should not be any reason to worry, however, as suggested by "kshitijnt" better to get in touch with USCIS and let them do corrective action as required.
Please post your experience afterwards.

Another interesting thing is that the status on both 485s went from Request For Evidence to Initial Review. Had got and responded to RFEs on the 485s back in 2008.

i think, not sure, if you are in US then for renewal in same visa category (or) to transfer from one visa category to another (like F to H visa, etc.), you can goto canada or mexico or india for visa revalidation.
But for new first time H1 visa, i think you should get it from india based on your home state jurisdication. you can check immigrationportal.com regd this there might be threads related to this...
Disclaimer: I'm nt an immigration attroney.
Please check with one on this issue.
Hi Guys,
I am from India. Can I go to US Embassy in Canada for H1 stamping ?
How to do that. Please someone enlighten me.. last time I heared you
have to go back to your country of origin for H1 stamping. am I wrong.
thanks

Hello Folks,
I also read, if there was a pending EAD renewal, your case might get looked at and instead of renewing your EAD, USCIS will rather give you GC - provided PD is current and there are no other issues.
The USCIS systems are not that sophisticated as we think they are.
For me, I have opened an SR on Aug 4, got CPO on Aug 11, then the SR response came on Aug19 saying that my GC has been approved :)
...and wait there's more!
Aug 13 or so, they approved my pending EAD, this after approving GC on Aug 11. Lets give them a benefit of doubt assuming that their various servers didnt get synced up in those two days.
Last week of August, they send me information on my AP that was approved earlier and for which i had my attorney send an enquiry (as I didnt receive the AP by then)....
so basically what this shows is that mostly there exists a high disconnect in their various servers/databases, and most probably their processes are highly manual.
Gist of this, highly disconnected systems and I dont think SR would lead to anything..
But, yours looks like a porting case - so possibly they might have the wrong dates - it might help to open an SR or go for infopass...

Hi All,
I have been following the postings on this forum. I appreciate all the hard work the core group is doing. I also appreciate the active participation by all members in answering/discussing the forum topics.
I have contributed a one time $200.00 in support and would contribute more and request every one to support in there capacity.
Every one needs PR status, but in my case, the need is more for my wife, because of the reason that she wants to pursue her medical residency here.
I sometimes wonder and sometimes I feel like going back to India, work for my present company for 1 year, come back here on a managerial/executive position on L1 along with my wife and apply for Perm in Eb1 cat...this said is all my thought!
This would enable my wife to get work permit as L1 dependent and an eventually a residency position in a good univ and a current 1-485 status.
Only thing though is my wife would need to attend interviews.
Any suggestions/feedback will help me and all other people in this situation.
Thank You,
The 116

F-1 OPT with H1B Pending Now Wants 17-Month OPT Extension
�MurthyDotCom
Yet another variation that occurs involves F-1 students who have job offers. The prospective employer of an F-1 student normally has filed an H1B petition requesting a change of status for that F-1 student. The parties now want to take advantage of the April 2008 option announced by the USCIS to utilize the possible 17-month OPT extension provision. The employer needs to withdraw the H1B petition in order for the student to continue in F-1 status. Once the status is changed from F-1 to H1B, the individual would no longer be able to extend the OPT period, even if the H1B petition is approved for the future start date of employment. However, before withdrawing the potentially very valuable H1B petition, it is best to discuss the advantages and disadvantages with a qualified immigration attorney.
In your case you never started your H1 status. So you should be eligible for applying an OPT extension, which should give you ample time for next lottery.
I am no lawyer, you should check with a good immigration attorney about this.
