Ok we have the poll, now can we start guessing when our dates will be current.
possibly we need another poll with these options asking when do you think your PD will be current
1) 10-12 years
2) 12-15 years
3) 15 - 20 years
:(
You are one optimistic dude in EB3 queue!!
Not so early :-)

Hi,
Can someone please clarify with AC21 can I take up a job Position as "IT PROJECT MANAGER 11-3021.00" whereas my EB3 Labor is filed as "Computer Programmers - 15-1021.00" ?
My I-485 is still pending past 180 days and I-140 is approved.
Thanks so much in advance for replying.
I would advice you to consult your attorney before you make this decision. Good luck

Guys,
Happy New Year for everyone in this forum....
Sorry for taking this discussion into different side..instead of opening a new thread i felt my question is related somewhat to this...
I am planning to change to new employer in february 2009 and used AP on Nov 2008. I am planning to ask new employer for H1B transfer instead of EAD as my H1B is valid till Sep,2010. Will this be a problem as i already used AP..some where i read that, i may jeopardize my 485 application, if i do H1 transfer in this case, as i used my AP....
I will talk to lawyer soon on this and let u know but any insight is helpful from you all..
Thank you
Sree

Hi
This is my first post so please bear with me. I have been silent in these forums for some time now. My intention in this post is not to offer any advice etc but its only intended of what I am feeling after the Feb visa bulletin and whether there are other people sharing the same feeling. I have been in this process since 2001. Got screwed by company once (after about two years) and had to change company so started all over again. Luckily new company was good. Though they dont pay for any GC expense lawyer was good and got PD 2004. Last year after seeing VBs had hopes of getting out of this soon. But now Feb VB bulletin has provideed really depressing news. At this stage its very depressing. I am thinking my "living the american dream" will be a dream only. With upcoming elections who knows what will happen. IV seems to be the only hope now.
Dispatched letters today to IV California and President.

How come most of the 2006 PD holders getting approved? I do not have any grudge against who have 2006 PD and got their AOS approved. I am just wondering as to what is making USCIS to choose only 2006 PD ? Definitely, the low hanging fruits theory does not seem to be working here. Anybody has any idea about that ? I am just frustrated.
Because 2006 is CURRENT.
You probably have to wait for your YEAR to become CURRENT.

Whats wrong in redirecting the immigrationvoice.com to ebimmigrationvoice.com because I have observed that when ever some newbie ask some thing non eb based, e g , a family based legal immigration Que. then people here just give hard time..

Ragz,
I have used a similar copy myself when meeting the staff of Congressman Michael Fitzpatric, with great results. However we were told that we were waiting for the lobby firms to give us their input. My guess was, if they are going to provide some really good insight, then we might as well wait a little and add that b4 meeting the Congressmen/Senators.
If you guys are decided on the presentation, then i can go ahead and book the appointment.

Hi Everyone,
Here is the scenario:
Category: EB3-INDIA
PD: APRIL 2004:
140: Approved.
485 filed on July 2nd, 2007 (of course, still pending)
Changed Employer after invoking AC21 (without sending any documentation to USCIS)
There is possibility that my new employer (where I am working on EAD) may get ready to file gc for me in EB2.
Now, here are my question:
1) Since my EB3 485 is pending, is it possible for another employer to file under EB2? Is this the process which is called Inter-filing? Has anyone done that?
2) At what stage previous EB3 PD can be used ? At the time of 140 filing, 140 approval or new 485 filing?
3) What if new EB2 I40 gets rejected? Does it have any impact on old EB3 approved 140 and pending 485?
4) Does the scenario look too risky?
5) Any one in the same boat?
Thanks in advance.

EAD is specifically authorization to work in the US. So in your situation, the answer is NO, you cannot use EAD for employment outside the USA. To work in another country and keep your green card process going, you will have to change your application from AOS to consular processing.

Your wife can't change her status because she is not currently maintaining status if the H-1B was approved as a change of status. CIS will only approve a change of status with proof that the applicant has maintained status. She needs to leave the US and return in H-4 status to effect H-4 status. She has been out of status since October 2008.
Thanks so much Elaine!
I presume her change of status (COS) from H4 to H1 took place automatically when she received her I-797 Approval notice from CIS with an I-94 valid till Oct 2011. Is my presumption correct?
Now, will her next COS i.e. from H1 to H4 take place when she leaves the US and appears for H4 interview based on my current H1's (company B's) 1-797 Approval notice in consulate in India?
I dont have stamp of my current H1 (company B's) in my passport. I have only the old H1 stamp (company A's) in my passport, which is already expired. I also plan to leave for India for my H1 stamping. Which will be the better approach: she appearing for her H4 interview along with me when I appear for my H1 stamping or she going alone ahead of me for her H4 stamping? Many thanks in advance.

I am on EAD currently. Priority date is Nov 2004 (EB3).
I just switched to a new employer using AC21. Can I file for my EB2 and then interfile AOS ?.
I understand that we need to file new Labor and I140. What happens at I485 ?. Do we need to revoke the current I485 and then apply for a new one. What will be status at that point and what will happen to the EAD ?.
Please point me to any thread if this has already been discussed.

He did ask me who filed for the GC so he knew mine was EB case.
Elaine,
Is there any document on USCIS website that clearly states that EB AP holder's can visit outside US and return without need of emergency?
thanks,
If you see the instruction of form I-131, it clearly says AP is an exdraodinary measure and should be sparingly used, for emergency purpose (page 1). AP can not be used to by pass the visa or visa issuance process. It clearly says that if AP is based on pending I-485, then the travel should be for family emergency and bonafide business purpose (page 3).
As because, USCIS/CBP is flexible for AP admission it does not mean that the rules are flexible. If the CBP agents at POE wants to flex their muscles they can deny the admission of AP holder, if they found the travel was not an emergency or a bonafide bussiness travel.

i filed my labor 7 years ago as a programmer, today i am a project manager. I have changed job using ac21 twice, did not inform uscis even once (as its not reqd by law). I am in eb3 india and I have no hopes that uscis will ever get to my application, and even if they did after 5 years from now, I dont care if they issue an RFE and deny my 485 all together. Point I am trying to say is , you cannot spoil your career waiting for this. I changed my job exactly on 6 months and one day after i filed 485. past 2 years i am a PM. I am pretty confident that I would have had atleast 5 years PM experience by the time they reach my application or even more time. After all I want to go back to my home country pretty soon and so did not want to care about all this job title, description etc crap..this is just me..use your own instincts.

Today, I spoke to a USCI Agent and his supervisor at NSC about my case..
I quizzed them about July 2007 revised visa bulletin etc.
He looked around, checked it for like 10 minutes and said HE DOESN'T HAVE
ANY MEMO. All he said that he has this MEMO which states that July 2007 (original) bulletin ..based on that EB1-3 for all countries are current.
:-) May be NSC approves application :-) as practically NO ONE can stop them..
Again this is based on my call to actual live human being at NSC..

Since your H4 COS is not approved yet, you are not YET in H4 status.
So you need to prove your current status based on pending H4 petition as well as your H1 paystubs. That is why you need to submit the pay stubs.
Your COS may get rejected (even the H4 COS), and in that case you need to travel outside get an H1 stamp and come back.
This is a typical situation where you should file for Premium Processing (of H1 COS).
Thank you for the quick response. I see that you are in Center City Philly. My prospective employer is also located in the same area and he does not have an immigration attorney, may be I can retain your services.
I understand the 'Yes' to the first question.
For the second - I do not have the most recent paystubs as I have not been employed for the past 2 months. In addition, I cannot provide paystubs for any period in 2009, that I was employed as I was not paid by my employer.
The last paystubs I have are for Sep 2008. I also have W2 for 2006, 2007 and 2008 (though 2008 one is deficient for 3 months).
Is it possible that I do not submit my paystubs and W2 and only submit my earlier H1 approval notice, valid I-94, and Pending H4 COS Receipt Notice? With this documentation, can we expect an H1 approval and in the worst case expect COS denial?
I am thinking, if H1 gets approved, I will travel abroad and obtain a new I-94 at POE.
Please recommend a safe approach. The new employer wants me to begin in 3 weeks, and I am wondering what is the best approach.
Thank you in advance for your time and recommendations.

No, MS+0 is still Job zone IV (SVP level 7: Over 2 years up to and including 4 years of "Specific Vocational Preparation")). There is plenty of software developer position codes in zone IV: 15-1031.00 - Computer Software Engineers, Applications, 15-1032.00 - Computer Software Engineers, Systems Software,
15-1021.00 - Computer Programmers. However, if you (your employer) can claim in the position description (and on the prevailing wage request) that you manage other people, then you can chose, say, 11-3021.00 - Computer and Information Systems Managers, and that is job zone V, so you can require both MS and some experience when advertising it.

it would be difficult to show how a french degree is useful in your current job. Many companies get h1-b approved by showing a "business necessity"..ie, they need travel agents who speak a certain Indian language etc. Doing an MBA definitely will help, but not with the current job description. They are going to ask why the job requires an MBA?Ofcourse if you got a job teaching French, h1-b visa will be granted.
