    First and foremost we are a nation of laws, or as we are all anticipated? But years of previous administrations have neglected the illegal immigrant problem, to the detriment of American workers.
    .
    .


    Brittanicus,
    Would you or NumbersUSA, still be so mad on illegal immigration if illegal immigrants were WHITE EUROPEANS instead of brown skinned mexian people?

    Please search your soul and reply to this question honestly.

    Please don't create any new thred.. Please close it .. We already have 4 threds going with different rumers.. No need to put another one..

    My answer is - No body knows what will happen.. So just chill and enjoy..

    Hi ramus can you point to the others threads going on this subject?:o I did check other threads to put this info. In fact I don�t want create any new threads. After looking for one that is appropriate, which I did not find, I started this one. The closest one would be the �June 1st filers - receipt � which is a diffrent subject.

    This is not a rumor, this a fact and I thought I should share with all so that every one will chill, take it easy and will not stressout in anticipation of 485 approval.

    As my priority date is current I contacted my local congressman's office for help with my I-485. NSC replied back to the office (see reply below) saying my background checks are still on. But the officer at the infopass appointment said my backgrounds checks are complete. I don't know whom to believe.

    Is this some kind of standard reply that USCIS is giving for Congressman's or Senators case status inquiry?

    Good morning XXXXXXXXXXX,
    Re: I-485s <Applicant Name>

    I have conversed with those in charge of these cases.
    The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is
    committed to adjudicating immigration benefits in a timely, efficient
    manner that ensures public safety and national security.

    Toward that end, USCIS requires extensive background checks for every
    application or petition it adjudicates. While background checks for
    most applications or petitions are completed quickly, a small percentage
    of cases involve unresolved background check issues that result in
    adjudication delays.

    Background checks involve more than just the initial submission of and
    response related to biographical information and fingerprints. When
    checks and/or a review of an administrative record reveal an issue
    potentially impacting an applicant's eligibility for the requested
    immigration benefit, further inquiry is needed. The inquiry may include
    an additional interview and/or the need to contact another agency for
    updates or more comprehensive information. If it is determined that an
    outside agency possesses relevant information about a case, USCIS
    requests such information for review. Upon gathering and assessing all
    available information, USCIS then adjudicates the application as
    expeditiously as possible.

    We have checked into your constituent's case and have been assured that
    the agency is aware of your inquiry, and is monitoring progress related
    to it. However, unresolved issues in your constituent's case require
    thorough review before a decision can be rendered. Unfortunately, we
    cannot speculate as to when this review process will be completed.


    We realize that your constituent may feel frustrated by delays related
    to his or her case. As an agency, we must weigh individual
    inconvenience against the broader concerns of public safety and national
    security.

    We hope this information and assurance are helpful. If we may be of
    assistance in the future, please let us know.

    I hope this information is helpful to you. At this time I am closing the
    inquiry on this matter.

    Thank you,

    <Officer Name>

    Immigration Services Officer

    NSC Congressional Unit

    I am not sure if we are still updating the document to cite more examples. If so one another good candidate: Jeong H. Kim, President of Bell Laboratories. One of the most influential Asian American Technologist/Enterpreuner. http://www.achievement.org/autodoc/page/kim1bio-1
    http://www.lucent.com/corpinfo/bios/kim.html

    I am sure we can give many more examples (I can think of a few immediately in my area, Pradeep Sandhu founder of Juniper which employes thousands now; Desh Deshpande who co-founded Cascade/Sycamore etc; Hassan Mohammad, CEO of Sonus; Arun Netravali, former president of Bell Labs; Krish Prabhu, CEO of Telllabs etc.etc.etc.etc.)

    What happens if one does not surrender the I-94 when travelling abroad?

    It means that on paper you never left the US. In the meantime if your I-94 expired, you would technically be out of status in the US.

    NRI picks top US tech award for Motorola

    Aziz Haniffa in Washington, DC | February 14, 2006


    Padmasree Warrior, executive vice president and chief technology officer, Motorola, and the driving force behind the company's recent growth and innovative successes, accepted the 2004 National Medal of Technology Award from President George W Bush on behalf of her company at a ceremony in the East Room of the White House on February 13.

    Warrior is also responsible for the success of Motorola Labs, the global software group and emerging early-stage businesses of the company. Her operational responsibilities include leading a global team of 4,600 technologists, prioritising technology programmes, creating value from intellectual property, guiding creative research from innovation through early-stage commercialisation, and influencing standards and roadmaps.

    She also serves as a technology advisor to the office of the chairman and to the board's technology and design steering committee.

    The prestigious National Medal of Technology annual award recognised Motorola for its outstanding contributions to America's technological innovation and competitiveness.

    Established in 1980 by an Act of US Congress, this is the highest honour awarded by the President to America's leading innovators.

    Ed Zander, Motorola chairman and chief executive officer, said, "All of us at Motorola are honoured to receive the National Medal of Technology from the President."

    "This award belongs not only to the talented employees of today but to the several generations of Motorolans who built our heritage of innovation. Given this heritage, we strongly support the President's plan to keep America the world's most competitive and innovative nation," he added.

    Warrior has been with Motorla since 1994 and is an alumnus of the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (from where she received her bachelor of science degree in chemical engineering). She then obtained her master of science degree in chemical engineering from Cornell University.

    "We applaud the Administration for proposing increased investments in R&D, in particular for the National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) at Commerce and the National Science Foundation," said Warrior.

    "From convergence to mobile Internet to nanotechnology, we must educate, excite and inspire our nation's children about science, technology, engineering and mathematics," she said.

    In an interview with rediff.com, immediately after accepting the award, Warrior said, "It's a great honour, I feel really humbled, and I feel very happy for all of our engineers worldwide, because the award is really theirs."

    She said being in the company of several other leading scientists and technologists who were also awarded the National Medical of Science and the National Medal of Technology Award, "who made these great breakthroughs in the fields of science and technology was very inspiring to me to be amongst of the company of these people."

    Warrior said while giving her the medal at the awards ceremony and also preceding the ceremony "he (President Bush) talked quite a lot to me and asked me if I was from India and I said, 'Yes, I came to the US on a student visa to go to graduate school and then stayed here.' And he said 'we need more people like you. We need more talented people from around the world to come and contribute and help our economy grow and build our innovative strengths to be competitive.'"

    She said Bush had also told her that he was looking forward to his visit to India. "He said, 'I am going to India in a couple of weeks and I'll be meeting once again with my good friend, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.'"Bush in his remarks before presenting the National Medals of Science and Technology, declared, "It is a honour to be in the company of so many bright and distinguished Americans. Each of our honorees has been blessed with talent, and each has used their talent to the fullest."

    "The work we honour today has improved the lives of people everywhere. It has helped to move our economy forward and it has helped to make sure that America is the leader of innovation in our world. The medals are our nation's way of expressing gratitude to gifted and visionary citizens."

    Bush said that these annual awards "are the highest award a President can bestow for astounding achievement in science and technology. They recognise work that has helped expand the horizons of human knowledge. The National Medal of Science honors those whose research has enhanced our understanding of life and the world around us. And the National Medal of Technology recognises innovators whose work keeps America on the cutting edge with discoveries that change the way we live."

    I had e-filed for me and my wife on 05/14.
    App went to NSC. Sent docs on 05/19 - delivered on 05/21
    Soft LUD on 05/17, 05/18 and on 05/24
    Got receipts on 05/21

    Yesterday (05/25) got ASC notice for FP for my wife.. did not know that FP is needed for EAD.
    I thought last time we got FP notice.. it said app type as I-485.. that time.. in July fiasco.. we had applied for 485/EAD/AP all together

    Have not got my FP notice yet

    I have a Que - my daughter is 7 and initially the attorney had applied for EAD for her too... but then after the first time (2007) I did not apply for her EAD.. I thought no point in wasting $340 every time..

    Now since FP notices are coming for my wife and hopefully for me - how about FP notice for my daughter? Do I need to apply for EAD for her.. to get FP notice?
    If I don't get FP notice for her - will her Case be ok?

    I e-filed for my wife on 5/24 - application was submitted to NSC.
    Sof LUDs on 5/25, 5/26 and 5/27
    Sent documents on 5/25 - Received by NSC on 5/27
    Received Receipt Notice on 5/27
    Waiting for FP notice (last FP was ~2 years back at the time of last EAD renewal)

    It looks like my lawyer has already mailed the application to USCIS. The priority dates becomes current only on July 1st.

    What are my options here? Does anyone has faced such a situation?

    Wow... You have a great over-enthusiast lawyer. People try to push their lawyer to file their application but looks like your lawyer pushed you to file your application. :)
    You can always file new application on July 1st.

    Question 10. Should service centers or district offices deny portability cases on the sole basis that the alien has left his or her employment with the I-140 petitioner prior to the I-485 application pending for 180 days?

    Answer: No. The basis for adjustment is not actual (current) employment but prospective employment. Since there is no requirement that the alien have ever been employed by the petitioner while the I-140 and/or I-485 was pending, the fact that an alien left the I-140 petitioner before the I-485 has been pending 180 days will not necessarily render the alien ineligible to port. However, in all cases an offer of employment must have been bona fide. This means that, as of the time the I-140 was filed and at the time of filing the I-485 if not filed concurrently, the I-140 petitioner must have had the intent to employ the beneficiary, and the alien must have intended to undertake the employment, upon adjustment. Adjudicators should not presume absence of such intent and may take the I-140 and supporting documents themselves as prima facie evidence of such intent, but in appropriate cases additional evidence or investigation may be appropriate.

    Question 11. When is an I-140 no longer valid for porting purposes?

    Answer: An I-140 is no longer valid for porting purposes when:

    A. an I-140 is withdrawn before the alien�s I-485 has been pending 180 days, or

    B. an I-140 is denied or revoked at any time except when it is revoked based on a withdrawal that was submitted after an I-485 has been pending for 180 days.

    Question 12. Can the 180 days that an I-485 application must be pending for I-140 portability eligibility accrue during a period when visa numbers are unavailable?

    Answer: Yes. The fact that a visa number becomes unavailable after the filing of the I-485 application does not stop the number of days required for I-140 portability eligibility from accruing.

    Question 13. Does the alien�s priority date change as a result of porting under �106(c) of AC21?

    Answer: No. The priority date continues to be determined at the time of the initial labor certification filing with the Department of Labor or at the time the initial I-140 immigrant petition is filed with USCIS (in cases where no labor certification is required).

    Question 14. Must the alien have a new offer of employment at the time the I-485 is being adjudicated under the I-140 portability provisions?

    Answer: Yes. The alien cannot still be looking for �same or similar� employment at the time the I-485 is being adjudicated under the adjustment portability provisions. The alien must be able to show there is a new valid offer of employment at the time the I-485 is adjudicated.

    Also when last year, congress approved recaptured 50,000 visas per year for Nurses, USCIS updated it immediately after Bush signed the law and also published interim visa bulletin to reflect those changes.

    Same way, how should we interpret here in case this immigration bill is signed by Bush, will USCIS allow to get us those benefits immediately or need to wait 90 days?

    Last time when Bill Clinton signed similar bill, it became effective immediately. So this should also be immediate.

    Mchundi,

    I understand your anxiety. To answer your questions:

    There is no chance of having any single set of provisions "become law immediately."

    Unfortunately, we have to let this current round of discussions on CIR play out. What should we root for? That amendments to the current CIR that basically gut the bill fail. If the bill survives these amendments then we stand a good chance of succeeding in our efforts.

    For strategic reasons, we cannot disclose everything we know about behind the scenes agreements.

    Hang in there!

    best,
    Berkeleybee
    Thanks,
    I am not even sure if this bill is good for me. (I am EB-2 2003 PD, I140 approved, India, 8th Year H1-B). I am sure this is good for people who r just stepping into the process.
    I know u guys r doing a good job shuttling between work and D.C. This is the closest we have ever come with the lawmakers (that i know). If only we had this cohesion during S-1932 days we would have got something. Hope it works out well for us.

    is a TB skin test neccessary even if you tell the doc you've had a history of positive TB tests? do i have to prove i've had a history of postive TB test for the doctor to remark that on i-693..or can he just remark that without evidence and go on my word

    thanks


    Your chest xray was negative so you are fine.
    To file for the 485 the skin test is a requirement. The doc has to prick you on your arm and in 48 hours you have the results.

    You need him to sign off on the results.

    the process of interviews. Can you please tell us how you are notified about a possible interview, how much time you have to prepare for the interview (15 day notice, 30day notice??), how one can postpone the interview (calling USCIS or need to send a letter) etc.

    This will benefit members.

    I came to know about my interview from the embassy web site and they send us pakage 4 also. Then we informed them by mail asking to postpond for 3 month. They confirmed the same. I am in India embassy is in New Delhi

    Hi All,
    My skin test was positive, where as my x-ray was normal.Incase I get an RFE , Can I go to my PCP or need to go only to local health dept.

    Can some body guide me
    -Srarao
    $100-so far

    For people from India, skin test is usually positive and x-ray normal. No one gets RFE for that.

    Why they should give you RFE? Is there any hidden message, which I am unable to makeout from your post?

    :confused:
    I am changing job and moving to EAD from h1b. My 140 is approved and 485 has been pending more than 180 days. I am in EB2 category.

    Question 1 - New employer wants to inform USCIS about job change and I dont want to do so as it just might delay AOS process? suggestions/thoughsts?

    Question 2 - New employer wants to apply for EAD and AP via corporate attorney and I prefer that my attorney do that but if i will have no choice I will have to give up BUT can corporate lawyers apply for my EAD and AP without me changing my legal rep with USCIS?

    Question 3 - The job title was "Sr Systems Analyst" and now it would be "System Quality Analyst 5" 5 is the highest level in this company after which it goes to Tech. Manager. I dont see issue with the title...do you see any issue? (job description are similar-I would say about 70%)

    Question 4 - Salary at the time of filing 140 was 60k offered for the Sr. System Analyst position and now with the new job is 100k. Can that be a problem?

    No offence meant or intended, I suggest a repost of the one by Mark.:)

    I am trying to figure out how much latency is to be expected in allotment of a GC for a case whose PD comes current sometime in the future and the processing date at whose service center too is later than the application date for the case at the time the PD comes current.

    Thanks and best regards.

    so when is a visa no. allocated?
    say, i filed in july when visa bulletin was current and now its retrogressed to 2004. my PD is 2006. so can it happen that if all runs smooth and application is complted, i can get my GC, even tough visa bulletin may not have yet cut past my PD? so in a nut shell, visa no. is given when 485 is recipted or when its approved?

    visa number is assigned at or right about just before the approval. So if the VB is 2 years away from your PD, you are not going to see an approval. After your PD is current, you might be assigned a visa number if your application was otherwise pre-adjudicated. You will see approval either that month or shortly thereafter. Again, IF your application was assigned a visa number. not all people who become current are assigned visa numbers...

    Got the cards in the mail. My online case status says the application is still pending.

    Folks (those whose PDs are current this month),

    Check with your attorney, in your mail boxes along with the online USCIS case status. You may get the good news in your mail box or from your attorney's office before your status is updated online.

    This is what my attorney had to say:

    The USCIS online status system is maintained by contract workers and is often inaccurate.
