Solution of frustration is not destructive thinking which you are doing. Grow up�.
May be you might have supported previous IV campaigns. I urge you to keep supporting them instead of going anything crazy like what you are planning.
Finally if you have reasons to believe some firms are gaming the system then report them. That is American way of doing things.

Good response from almost all . I didnot call Steve King and Lamar Smith. as well as those who are co -sponsers.
Also skipped Luis Gutirezze .. He was supportive in sub committe hearing last time .
Aide from Rep Chris Cannon took my name and no and she told me some one will get back to me as she is not sure about bill.
Guys keep calling.. People just take message and average call takes 1 min or less.

All you said is correct, except for you don't need Hepatitis B if you are over 16. No, there are no more tests involved, unless your tb is positive. If you tb is positive you need to do chestX-ray. I know that because I was just doing the tests for myself. Varicella must be taken twice 30 days apart. Same applies to MMR.
I hope this helps. If you go to a good doctor, he will give you a complete list of things that you need to do before coming on the medical exam.

My immigration doctor told me that if i had chickenpox in childhood i do not need the varicella vaccine? Which i did at age 5. Please, let me know if anyone else was told the same , i will be going back to him on Wednesday for the physical exam. I don't want to get a RFE on that.

My H1-B was extended in October 2007 for three more years. My wife went to India and is going through this PIMS BS now. Chennai Consulte applied on Feb 6th. Some cases listed on this forum are scary as hell. Called the VFS office, all they say is they have not received the pp. After four days got the number for the consulate from VFS. Calling them daily. Same story, with each passing day, I could sense the increasing irritation in the voice of the consulate personnel to my questions. I wish I could talk to them in person and vent out my anger. This afternoon I called the DOS. The number is 202-663-1225 incase anyone needs it. I explained my case and asked her if they are missing any information. The reply: No your VISA looks fine. Then the robotic answer, PIMS verification is under process.
I think VFS should specify it on their website and warn people about these delays. Warn people about the PIMS BS and suggest that they should not make any travel plans till they are sure this PIMS BS is resolved.

Do you have a question, comment, or give info about a previous post.
I don't mind, you just copied my post from another thread (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?p=83656#post83656)(minus the links).
What are you tryiing to say?
I am speaking from experience. Download the forms needed for filing 485, EAD and AP. Then when your attorney send you his/her set ( normally they do this in 2 stages - one they will send you a draft copy to verify and correct all info - some have online questionnaire; stage two - they send the final forms for you to verify and sign again - this they may do paper copy or online PDF - that cannot be edited - not fill able forms).
So, here I am providing links to all forms that I know are needed. These from uscis.gov site are fill able. Weekend is coming. Fill them, and print and keep them.
When attorney sends papers, compare yours with their and do corrections in theirs ( usually it will have stamps of the firm)
Application To Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status - I-485
Medical Examination of Aliens Seeking Adjustment of Status - I-693
There is a supplemental 693 also for vaccination records.
Biographic Information - I-325 A
There are A, B, C and other versions. I filled A
Application for Employment Authorization - I-765
Application for Travel Document - I-131
Affidavit of Support - I-134
I completed all these forms with 100% correct info- still the Paralegal - made mistakes again and again ( I can't correct the PDF as Adobe PDF writer is 1800 USD). I lost ONE precious week. Hoping to file on 06/01/2007, filed on 06/08. Learn and be wiser from experience, yours and others.

Are you sure you are not confusing with Indian epics that discuss how Lord Brahma had sex with his own daughter? :D :D
Unfortunately, you are showing your culture here with responses like this by clearly proving that you are incapable of provding a proper response. You are not making any case here, actually you are undermining it. This clearly shows the contempt that you have for the people of the country where you are desparately trying to immigrate to.
If things were so rosy in India compared to US, you wouldn't be posting in this forum, will you?
As a matter of fact, people like you, irrespective of the qualifications, should never be allowed to immigrate to anywhere. You should remain in India or should I say "arsha-bharatha"?
What are you showing hunter here? American hipocracy & bigotry in full light? How is your culture any good with what you have posted?

All we need is just 233,816(page 2) visas(forget about country limit, EB category etc). In that case in 2 years we will have 280,000(140,000 * 2) visas. So should we all get GC in two years with that logic.
If only USCIS can think along those lines. :confused:

Hi everyone ,
i have three question please please anyone answer ....
1 - i have previously applied but was returned due to pd not current , what to file in the form where it say if u have appllied before ? ( i am filing on my own this time )
2 - should the salary be there on employment letter . if so the present day salary or the one with labour approve ?
3 - i have an A# when my file was returned should i use that or leave it blank wherever it is asked also my wife have TIN number is that what i am supposed to write where it ask her to give her SSN
i will appreciate anyone answering any question please
thank you
pranju
The employment letter should state the salary and should also say the job is full time and permanent. Also include general job description and job title matching the labor cert.
You should include your A# wherever it is asked for. You do NOT put the taxpayer ID # instead of SS#, leave it blank.
Regarding your first question. I would suggest the truth is always the truth and check the yes box to an application being filed before and add a short explanatory note with it.
good luck, I filed mine and my husbands on my own, just take your time and read carefully.

Hi friends,
My husband and me work for the same company now. He applied in EB3 (India) and PD date with December 2006. I-140 approved and I-485 applied in July 2007. Got EAD and AP for both but still working on H1B (Not used EAD and AP).
From other company, in 2007, I applied for labor substitution and it is approved yesterday, which has PD Nov 2004 (EB3 - India). One of my friend working for this company and I got the reference last moment and I was not hoping for this approval.
Now I have to switch to this company as the company management are asking me to join the company. I read many threads in this forum and this thread too about multiple filings of I485s and withdraw one while applying other.
I read some people had no problems with multiple I-485s. But Murthy's advice is against this while others like Rajiv in favour of this.
Please advice me what could be the best in my case.
I have PG in engineering (CS) from India.
Thanks in advance
We may be talking about the same thing...I believe that ALIA as asked USCIS for clarificatin about spouses both filing (my wife and I both have.) Only I have no EADs or AP on my application. Just straight 485. My wife's 485 has EADs, APs, for both of us. Now both of our lawyers said it would be fine. It is not about what USCIS wants, however--it is about what they will lose court cases over. They can't possibly dissallow multiple applications after the fact, after we've paid for them. If USCIS was going to x-nay this, their window of opportunity is over. By not barring it, they've defacto allowed it.
Cheers,

Nope. Why?
Because pattern shows that LUD on I140 meant transfer of cases to Texas and only few have heard so far from that batch.

Friends we all know to get AC21 it takes 6 months from the date of 485/EAD application.
Suppose you get your EAD and say have an extension on H1B also for 3 years. But you have not completed 6 months after date of 485 application. In the mean time you loose your Job, then can we still retain the EAD... with say new employer....

Look around you will see.... not everybody is the same.
I personally know many who had been "working in H1B" for more than 14 years.
Not everybody gives more weightage for their "immigration plan" than some personal and career interests. If you are really truthful to USCIS about your intentions, and you keep doing what you want to do with your career and life, it is in-fact very possible that you will be found without a GC even after 10 years working in USA, if your are from India.
An approved I-140 doesnt make you "automatically" qualified for an I-485. You dont file 485, if you dont "intent" to continue with that specific employment, even after I-140 approval.
7Years???? No..... you can extend your H1 beyond 6 years as many times as you want if you meet some conditions as per AC21. So it is possible for you to be in H1B for 100 years.
10years tax payed???? Yes because of the other reasons I mentioned. Also I know many who are still in que after 14 years paying taxes.
.......... but for
#3) condition "if they have paid the tax continously for 10 years", I wonder how can this
happen unless the foreign student who has worked in US for 10 years. I heard H-1b
workers maximum have 6 years plus 1 year extra for extension total add up to 7 years.
So how can have 10 years tax paid????
3) For #1) condition," If they are legally here for 10 years (With approved I-140 and
waiting for Adjustment of Status without current date)",
I wonder whether only students with years of US working experience (which means
years in full time study plus years of working experience) up to 10 years is counted
towards this legal stay for 10 years.
So how about students who have years of working experience (which means years in full time study plus years of working experience up
to 10 years but
without GC waiting due to lack of employers' file for GC sponsorship due to some
unknown reasons??????
or some foreign students who have stayed in US for 10 years for full time study such
as 4-yr bachelor degree plus 6-yr Ph.D or two Master degree (MS & MBA) or other
degree combinations but they have both social security card and drivers' license as US
ID but without employers' sponsorship due to certain reasons?????
Would you please tell me more details about your idea????? Thanks a lot for your attention and help!!

Biographic Information. Please read the form and the instructions in the www.uscis.gov (http://www.uscis.gov)web site. Good night.
Why do we need 325A?- i thought this was for people in illegal status. Our son entered the US on valid H4 visa. Also do we need to request in application to attach the file to mother or anything like that. I will give the USCIS a call and share that information here if I find anything more.
thanks
