Hi all, apologies first off for not knowing all the technical USCIS lingo, but my question is relatively simple.
Situation: I am a US Citizen and I'm planning to marry a non-US Citizen in October. He is from India, currently on H1B, has the EAD, and is now patiently waiting. I don't know his priority date offhand, but I do know that he applied during all the crazy hubbub that happened in July-August 2007. (wow, it's been almost 2 years? time flies!)
Our marriage is totally legit, we've been for 5 years, living together, etc. What we need to know is, would it be better to forget the work-sponsored GC application and go for a family one? Or can he have applications for both at the same time? Would changing to a different type of application affect his ability to continue working at his current job, at all?
Thanks in advance for advice anyone can give.

I have been a silent reader but a recurring contributor. We all need to come together and work for a Skill Bill or atleast be able to file for I-485 without Visa number availability so that we can get EAD's, Buy houses, Travel in and out of the country without going to the consulate, not pass up on projects which need a lot of International Travel. Can we work for this?. This would help a lot of us keep our minds peaceful

Friends
This is my situation
I am from Pakistan and I do have Canadian PR also. I applied I-824 on August 5, 2008 and it got approved very fast on January 16, 2008 IN just 5 and half months and I have written that I want to process my case in Toronto Canada not from Pakistan now I have the following question
1-on approval notice the petitioner name and the beneficiary name is the same don�t u guys thing the beneficiary name should be my wife name
2-DO all FTJ cases are processed through NVC. Or only some of them... because Islambad embassy accept cases from NVC only they told me that I-824 has to be approved and then UCIS will send your case to NVC and then case will be sent to islamabad but is this the same procedure for canada because I-824 approval notice says that they have notified tornto consulate that I am the permenant resident thats all. I 824 do not have even my wife name?? Can any body tell me clearly that does every body who files I-824 has to go through NVC or in case of Canada we can go to consulate and start the case?
3-If NVC is involved in my case then how long file will stay at NVC and how long the consulate in Toronto will take to complete the process.
I am totally confused a lot of lawyers do not even know that NVC is involved in FTJ cases. These lawyers still say that you can go too directly to start the case I know In Pakistan they accept the cases only through NVC. Even they don�t open case with approved I-824? What about in Canada? Do I have to wait to receive some documents from NVC or I can start the case directly in USA Consulate in Canada
Guys please help if you know the answer

There is no way that she can start working from April. If her H1B is approved, the earliest she can start working will be Oct 1, 2007. Also, make sure that her H1B is filed ASAP because the 20,000 MS quota has also been seen to evaporate pretty quickly (~1-2 months).
In other words, she will have to convince her employer to allow her to start from October.

Thanks, Greenways. After seeing your post I called my attorney right away. The office assistant informed me that my 140 has been approved on August 27th 2008 and sent me a copy of the approval notice.:):):):):):):)
My dirty employer has been hiding this fact from me for the past two months. I have been waiting all these days, hoping that my I140 will be approved one day, checking case status almost daily etc. I am really really mad now. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: :mad::mad::mad:
CRIS still shows that my case status as application received and pending, although there was a soft LUD on august 27th on my 140 application, which is the approval date of my 140. I failed to understand the meaning of the soft LUD at that time, but now I know. So, my dear friends, do not rely on CRIS for updates. Please check with your employer/attorney to get the latest status.

I think you have to wait until your 3yr H1B is clear. If you find a new job before your current H1B expire, you may not have enough time left on your H1 to get the new GC labor and I-140 approved.
Hi,
My I-140 will be approved shortly in premium processing and I'll be applying for 3yr H1 extension. There is a chance that I may get laid-off soon and I wanted to know if I can change the jobs while my H1 extension petition is pending with USICS. My current H1 will expire in June'07.
Sorry, if I am asking a question that has already been addressed here. I tried to browse the forum but could not find anything.
Thanks,
Natika

Not a problem, just have somebody to check your mail in case the USCIS sends a fingerprint appointment or something else.
I am just waiting for the green card.
Is there any time limit when I'm out of the US??
Thank you. Help please.

I got my EB3 I-140 approval after I applied my I-485 with later PD EB2. Our lawyer sent a letter to USCIS, but there is no confirmation from USCIS. Please let me know, if there is any way to check the PD.

Hello folks
My fiances parents are applying for a B1/B2 Tourist visa on the basis of her 2 graduation ceremonies. We will get married in a court before her parents apply for a visa but the marriage ceremony will be between 2 graduations in US. If we also show that her parents are attending daughters wedding ceremony in US will the likelihood of them getting a visa increase? We can send a copy of marriage certificate before parents visa interview.
Thanks
I don't think so. The VO is interested in ensuring that your in-laws are visiting US for tourism / family visit and will return back after the visit. VO also wants to ensure that someone will pay for the entire trip and they will not become public burden.

Not really digital, but an amazing accomplishment. From the Nikon press area:
Record breaking Nikon F5
Service engineers at Nikon�s German Service Centre were amazed to discover during routine servicing recently that a Nikon F5 had achieved 1,092,904 shutter releases without fault.
Translating into about 35 kilometers of film this figure is a testament to the durable design of the mechanism, now also shared by the latest Nikon D2H Professional Digital SLR.
To put the 1,092,904 shutter releases into context, it equates to 34 hours of continuous shooting at 8 frames per second.
The camera is one of the bodies used in the Matthaus Photographic Studio in Nuremburg, Germany.
Nikon Germany�s Service Manager Joachim Hoffman said: �This is the most shutter releases I have ever seen. The F5 shutter is, in my opinion, definitely more durable than any other camera�s. Because the F5 in question was well looked after and serviced regularly, that makes it last longer- it�s a bit like going to the dentist!� he added.

how are you planning on getting the deposit slip stamped in ScotiaBank?
P.S: I have an appointment on Aug 23rd, it would be helful to know how to do this. Thanks
I took the stamped deposit slip the same day morning at 9 AM (My appointment at 10 AM). I am sure you already looked at the nearest scotia bank locations in Ottawa. It takes only couple of minutes for the teller to stamp the slips.

Hi ,
One of my friends applied for his GC thru a consulting company which he does not work for...He used to work for the company but left that company before he decided to file with them...Since he has good relations with the company, they decided to file for him.
The company recently filed his I140 but they got a RFE on I140. INS wants to know why does the company want to hire him and why he left the company in the first place..does anyone in the forum has a similar experience to share...The RFE is actually for the conmpany but the owner wants my friend to write a letter and mail it to the lawyer. Any help is appreciated.

10/23/2007: Senate Passed Legislation to Recapture 61,000 Unused Numbers for Allied Healthcare Workers
* In the legal immigration, the allied healthcare community has strongest lobbying groups in the nation. These groups were able to muscle passage of a legislative bill in the Senate yesterday recapturing 61,000 unused EB-3 foreign worker visa numbers for them. This bill was passed as part of the Labor-HHS 2008 appropriation bill. Reportedly, this bill faces two roadblocks ahead to make it into a final legislation. One is the White House that has been threatening to veto the Labor-HHS bill in toto because of the amount of spending. Second is the House that has to agree to the Senate version in the conference committee. However, the second roadblock does not seem to pose any serious threat as demonstrated by the move of some of Democrats in the House. Please stay tuned.
