- 485/765/131 submitted in Aug. Receipts are in with Oct 1 as the date. Why would they mark a date in October on the notice even though they physically received the applications on Aug 15th?
- Should I be receiving an EAD 90 days from Aug 15th or Oct 1?
Contact USCIS and let them know that the application was delivered on Aug 15th.Open a service request.
- My H1 will expire by the end of the year. Should I be concerned? Do I have to do anything if I receive the EAD before it expires? Assume a case where I get my EAD approved and for some reason, my wife who is on H1, fails to get her EAD before the end of this year. Do I have to file for her extension, or take some other action?
H1B expiring shouldn't be of concern.Once your H1b expires you are in Adjustment of Status.Inform your employer to change the employer verification details in I9. Ask him use the EAD instead of H1B.
As far as your wife is concerned it still doesnt matter whether she gets her EAD or not before her H1 expires.But she cannot continue to work once her
H1B expires until she receives the EAD .If I were you I would extend both the H1b and stay on h1b until possible.
- When can a person safely switch his/her employer? 180 days after filing the application or after receiving I485 approval?
180 days after filing for 1485 provided your I140 was approved.
- Can a spouse work on the basis of the receipt notice from USCIS, or does she need to have the EAD approval?
NO.She needs EAD card. Approval notice cannot be used to work.Thats illegal.
- How long (currently) would it take to receive the Green Card in hand? Are there enough numbers available with USCIS to allot GCs to almost everyone who qualifies?
Once approved anywhere from 7-30 days you might get the GC by mail.
I dont know whether there are enough numbers.I won't even speculate.
- Would I get the fingerprinting notice directly or would my employer receive it?
You would get a copy of the FP notice.
- What other formalities would be left after (assuming) 485/765 are approved?
765 is EAD.Its a interim benefit while your 485 is in process.485 is for adjustment of status.Once 485 is approved you get the GC. There are no formalities.Have fun and njoy
- Does anyone know of a good site that shows a workflow of all these stages in a Green Card process?
check out this 485 SOP (http://www.immigration.com/newsletter1/uscissopprocd.pdf)and there are more if you can google it.
Goodluck

Folks here is the deal.
A lot of people are getting denials and forced to apply for MOTIC. It could be various factors.
As USCIS is doing background processing on cases trying to preprocess cases even if priority dates are not current there seems to be cases where people are getting denials when RFEs are supposed to be sent.
Things that trigger a denial in a straightforward case
(1) July 2007 filers - those who filed in August 2007 (the filing was open till August 17th)
(2) Immigration medicals - if not included - USCIS sent a circular that people can apply without medicals and will be later requested via RFE
(3) AC21 - employer revoke 140
None of the above should trigger a denial but looks like they are triggering a denial.
It could be that there is pressure to reduce backlog as economy is not good and we all know that immigrants are scapegoats in such situations.
It could also be a training issue for new staff.
As they are trying tom speed up processing - all they might be doing is - look at the file - if something is missing or something is not right - immediately deny the case.
MTRs should resolve these cases but it is a waste of money and unnecessary tension.

It's amazing the time and energy spent (wasted?) with Sen. Mike Delph illegal-worker bill. Would it be the same for an improved Legal Immigrants system? :rolleyes: I guess not because we are already paying taxes, but unfortunately for us we are stuck in this overkill and non-sense process. My LC (EB3) for instance is waiting to be certified by Chicago DOL since 08/06/07, it got audited in 12/05/07, DENIED on 12/21/07, appealed, and then moved back to "In Process" in 01/10/08. My wife and 3 kids are stuck with their H-4 status while I am an H1-B. Meanwhile, around $20K has been paid between immigration and legal/attorney's fees.
Isn't funny when lawmakers or lack of knowledge people says why you didn't just went Legal? :mad: Regardless the money required to invested in this process, there is so much to know to submit applications that only thru an attorney it's possible; and even having one of the "Best Ones" in your side is not a guarantee.
I'll need to say that I agree and support a fine to employers using illegal workers but this won't stop the immigration to this country; a re-design immigration system with reasonable time and fees as well as clear goals and incentives will definitely improve and solve immigration issues. :)

Total anarchy!! How can this happen? EB3, June 2, 2004 was not current in June 2007!
It struck me that all these years we have taken USCIS' word on the idea that they issue green cards by PD -- they don't release any statistics on greencards issued by PD and country, so we have no idea if they do this all the time, issue green cards any which way they like!
I should add that I feel no animus against aarun, he/she is just like any one of us stuck in this lightless, informationless black box of a process, good that he/she got lucky. This incident is tremendously informative for the rest of us cos it tells us how logic free and lawless the process really is.

People,
What does this mean? I am not too strong regarding finances, so asking.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20090305/pl_afp/financeeconomyusbankinggovernment
Does it mean there wont be insurance on our bank deposits if this happens?

Good idea. Should we orchestrate our calls so that there is no more and no less than 5 calls every day? I agree we have to persistent on this because he is our only hope.
I thought that we should call one senator or(and) congressman every day.
I guess IV core doesnt want to do it for some reason.

Why blame USCIS when you classify yourself as EB3!
Your profile says you are EB3. I hope it was put by you not by USCIS.
May be your I-140 was also for EB3, a misclassification by you. Do you remember?

If I think from company's point of view then what they are doing is that they are cutting down their liabilities. If they put you on LOA they would have to pay for insurance and other benefits. I dont know if its right to read too much between the lines.
I guess you'll have to wait till October to find out. However, if they apply for your H1 in April then I wouldnt worry because no company would just flush $3000 if they dont intend to hire you.
All the best

Dear Admin, sincerely appreciate your encouraging words. 10+ Yrs in the country and another 10 yrs to go before seeing the light appears to be highly depressing considering current economic uncertainities.
If it wasn't for the patch up by Immigration dept in 2007, this country would have seen Indians forced to head back home by the 10000's. And those that were fortunate enough to retain jobs or move on to new ones by porting AC-21 are forced to stay in the SAME role with no relief coming from the Govt for AC-21 which would then allow them to get promoted or recognized for their hardwork. Imagine the shock my boss had when I had to refuse promotion as that would jeopardize my GC(expected to be approved in the next 10 years)? And if that doesn't bother you enough, then once every 2 years(thankfully EAD is now valid for 2 yrs), you start fasting and praying that your EAD gets renewed without issues. You get the drift now, don't you?
And that is not to say I do not acknowledge the efforts your team has been putting in. I, along with the many 1000's, truly appreciate the selfless and noble efforts your team has been constantly putting in to bring about bigger changes. THANK YOU!!

USCIS delays GC approvals with some reason
1.Prior to 2005 they used to delay by delaying Labor approvals
2.after 2005 they are delaying by showing the reason called retrogression.

I went to REC (one of the top 20 schools in India) did my Mastrs in Full scholarship and have International papers for IEEE + Few Algorithms that have been presented at Int. Conferences,( I could not attend the conf. in Paris since I did not want to go and get stamped and go through all the hassel- Go figure). I am an Ideal candidate for EB1 but my lawyer said there is a 50/50 chance for further enquiry and it will only delay the process.
I know, I know but trust me, I was a University topper in Probablity and AI theories and I decided to chicken-out.
Not because I am afraid of enquiries, I just dont want to raise any flags. I want to keep working, Hopefully get my GC within few* years and then prove myself .
I applied under EB2 only because I don't want any enquiries and I know these POS lawyers will only delay the RFE's.
Anyway, I was just frustated, sorry about this rage but just needed an outlet.
People will only file under EB1 when A) They are not from India/China and They are not afraid to go and face any flags.
& /OR B) They have good lawyer, who is very much prudent and willing to take chances.
Any other theories and welcome
*CONDITIONS APPLY LOL
my friend, you've been played. EB1 requires no labor cert. Your lawyer convinced you to "chicken out" & wait a couple of years longer in the queue. Thereby paying him fees to help you do labor certs and multiple H1/EAD/AP renewals.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
As a EB2-India hopeful I was Current in Aug/Sept 2008, and had a 99.9% of hope of getting approval. However, they did nothing then though many with a lot lower (later) PD's and RD's were approved.
Now suddenly, I got several sets of emails with "Card production ordered", "Approval notice sent" and "Wecome as a New permanent resident" messages (some more than one with same message).
So, may be USCIS is not following any PD dates announced in Visa Bulletins, but this time for good. Ironically, I also got emails on my AP approval, which is dated a day later than GC approval. Sequence of LUDs is - AP received 11/11 with a soft LUD on 12/10, I-485 approval on 12/11, AP approval on 12/12. Got another set of emails today with similar contents as in emails dated 12/11.
Perhaps a lot is going on to clear old cases. Have hopes, and do something so that your file comes to someone's attention. ....Best to all....
