If Skill Bill passes eventually, won't EB2 be beneficial over EB3.

I believe unless you filed I-485 under the revised fee structure last year, you need to pay for EAD and AP renewal every time you have to renew.
This is true..

I was in the same situation (got my MS degree after I had already started working) and I was told that I could not use my master's degree to apply in EB2. This is because if the company hired you when you didn't have a master's degree, obviously your job position does not require a master's degree. You still can use the degree if your green card job position is drastically different from your current position job-duties wise and if you can prove that it does, in fact, require a masters degree.

Hi you might also need the copy of the labor? or atleast the number for that one?
Nope, not needed. You only need a copy of your approved I-140.

You should request your new employer to do Premium Processing on your H-1B petition.
You will get a response from USCIS in 2 weeks and you will know for sure whether it has been approved/rejected or if USCIS needs more evidence. If it is approved, you will also know whether it was approved with Change of status (i.e. I94 attached), or whether you are required to leave the country and re-enter on a H-1B visa.
If new evidence needs to be submitted, then you will get a response within two weeks of submitting additional evidence.
The fee for Premium processing is $1000. Note that the beneficiary of the petition (you in this case) is legally allowed to pay the fee for premium processing. But, only the petitioner (your future employer) can file the application for Premium processing.
As far as I know - you are considered in a period of authorized stay as long as your petition for change of status/extension of stay is pending with the USCIS. You will begin to accrue unlawful presence from the day the petition is denied, if that were to happen.
The lawyers on this forum can advise you better.
i don't know what to do right now.i stayed over april 2009 which is the end of my i-94 because i have a pending petition of immigrant as a nurse.And my lawyer said i am allowed to stay until october 2009. But now the problem is I was filed as H1b by another employer so is it possible that they will approve me here?My lawyer said that when i received already the notice of receipt i can stay here while waiting for the approval.And when my approval comes with 1-94 on it i don't have to leave the US but when it has been approved without i-94 i will leave the US for consular processing asap and re-enter here as h1 status.HELP i really don't know what to believe anymore!at the moment i am waiting for my notice of receipt in h1b visa.I only have until oct to get a result for the approval!please advice me what is the best I can do!THANKS:)

Does replying to RFE along with all required documents means GC is coming soon ??
Augustus..did you get GC yet ?
Thanks
yes, it will be in your lap as SOON as your pd becomes current... sorry, it does not mean what we all want it to mean... it could mean that your case gets pre-adjudicated and hence may be quickly approvable once pd is current...

Do not ask us to send junk emails or sign some useless online petition though in your action item.
lol - never.
Just use available tools to educate people using simple terms. Using 6-degree rule we should be able to reach lots of people.
-- My first idea is to use facebook to run a campaign - prepare a literature - 8-10 point about EB based immigration & everyone post on their facebook page ..with an easy click (if they support) for readers to post on their walls : posting on wall == supporing it. then see how many people support us .. idea is to reach the masses....
thats it the initial plan...

This is odd! California Service Center has stopped processing EB I-485s long time ago.
Why the heck would NSC process I-485 based on CSC time-line when the case is actually pending at NSC? This just doesn't make any sense.
I highly doubt if the IO (if that's what s/he was) really knows anything.

I dont know exactly what is the issue here, but I have filed for EAD extentions 3 times in last three years and it was a very straight forward and easy process. We filed the extentions about 2 months before the expiration and got EADs and APs done in about a month.
I wanted to start this thread so we could get together a plan of action for victims of undue processing delays for EAD/AP. This is a very serious and upcoming issue and we would all be well served to pool ideas.
Here is what I have so far. Some ideas based on my experience and some on searching the web.
1) Apply for your EAD atleast 120 days ahead of the expiry of the current one(USCIS now reccomends 6mths ahead!) Yes you may lose time if they approve it early but atleast, you have the peace of mind and it gives you 30 days breathing space in case of RFE or to get an interim EAD.
2) Check for a LUD at or slightly after 80 days pending. Contact your lawyer at about this time for suggestions.
3) Schedule an infopass appointment for day 91. Ask for the interim EAD.
You can also call the regional service center if you wish.
4) Contact your congressman's office at about this time and ask for their assistance in expediting this request.
5) Fedex an application for an interim EAD the same day. Include a copy of your current EAD copy, your pending 485 on which the interim benefits are based and a copy of attendance at any recently done biometrics.
6) Consider talking with your employer to take a few days off while sorting this out.
If anyone has any additions to this checklist of items or suggestions/modifications. Let me know.

This is a very good point ,if illegal under guest worker program can pursue a path to a citizenship after 6yrs provided that they can show they have paid taxes, learn English and pass background check...Why can't we ask the same for us, we have entered US legally without breaking any law, are paying taxes and are highly educated let aside learn English. And the senators have agreed about getting in line or behind the line (First in first out) approach for getting Citizenship, we are just asking for GC ;) ?

Hello,
I'm planning to get immigration medical examination done for my wife. We're also planning for pregnancy.
One doctor said we should not try for pregnancy for 4-6 months once she get the shots. He also said he will give a waiver for now for the shots but USCIS will ask for it later. Is that a good idea?
Another doctor said she can do a blood test and determine if she needs the shots.
Any body in the same situation?
Check with your OB/GYN for important matters like this. Also, we had taken most of the vaccinations in India and they could identify the antibodies through blood tests. You could even get the blood tests get at your PCP earlier. Also, check webmd.com. It is a good resource, or you could call up the nurse line that most insurance companies provide now.

I have got EAD and AP.I think i would not have got them if the 140 is not filled.
I also know the date on which he filled. but employer is not sharing the receipt because there is no mandate for him to do so.
I wanted to know is there a way out.

Horscrop,
Yes, it is possible that USCIS would reject the extension because the PERM was not filed 365 days before the end of six years. However, a rejection on this basis is clearly contrary to both the language and intent of AC21, and I believe, could be successfully challenged on appeal.

I have one year left on my second H1. I am EB3, Canadian born category. Just got I-140 approved last week or so. I've been working here in California for the same employer for 6 years. My PD is Nov 04. I feel like I've taken a big career hit.
--
Can't answer all your questions but here is what I did. I had been working for the same company for five years. My priority date was Sept. ' 02. I finally got a 45 day letter in March '05. I decided not to remain hostage to the green card process. I changed my job mid-2005. Refiled all the paperwork. I was in my 5th year of H1B. You are in a better situation than me because your I-140 has been approved and having worked there for six years you might be able to convince them not to revoke it if you change your job.
I suggest you write down all your career and personal goal for next five years. Prioritize. Act on whatever takes precedence. Be very honest because you will need to face the consequences, job satisfaction vs delayed green card.
