Heard back from the attorney - filing after Aug. 17th.
my lawyer says with all this VB backand forth. Technically for those who want 3 yr extension should file after 17th August. Because although the Aug VB is "U", July VB is active for those eligible till 17th..So safer options is 18+

DO they tell you to reschedule the appointment or just ask you to come with FP notice by doing walk-in after it heals. Also do they put a note in their system that you could not give the FP because of so and so reason. Also anyone knows what Boston ASC does , whether they permit walk-ins during the week.
You said you went after a month, so I assume that they must have noted that you did appear for the FP but could not do it.
Sorry if I am sounding a little desperate but I just want to get this over with the right way without any hassles.
Yep..they just noted that I came for the initial appointment and asked to come after my finger heals..i had surgery on the finger and went back after the finger healed

USCIS has updated the processing dates pages of all the four service centers on September 28. Now the pages say that these dates are valid as of July 31, 2008 only.
If I remember well the processing dates information was more up-to-date earlier.
So looks like CIS has backtracked from their earlier published dates. They are telling us that they simply cannot tell what the current processing dates are. All they can tell us is that what applications they were processing on July 31.
What can we deduce from this? Is it good? Is it bad? Or no relevance?
It could be good as CIS might be processing July 2007 485 applications as of today? Or may be not.
Simply more confusion, as if as it is we were not confused enough.

Whenever you want to switch jobs, you have to apply for a whole new H1.
Having one already does not make things faster or easier, except when you are already in the US. In this case, you can switch jobs as soon as you file the new H1, you don't have to wait for approval. However, there is a big risk:
what if the new H1 is denied? You already quit your previous employer and cannot work for the new one anymore...Then you are in big trouble.
How often does a denial happen in a case of H1 "transfer"? Do you know? Why would a transfer be denied?

guys,
NSC received my application July 2nd (concurrent filing 485/EAD/AP..)
1. When do the 90 days wait start counting? From July 2nd? (that would mean I should receive my EAD by 1st October.
2. I read walk in centers is a service not provided by USCIS anymore. However, cannot find conclusive information (many people say they still do). What will happen then after the 90 day period? How can I get my interim EAD if it does not arrive on time?
Thanks for your answers and for answering to new thread :-)

Singer,
Your case seems peculiar to the ones that is normally discussed in this forum. I would suggest you post your message in the "ask a lawyer" section. You might get a better response from an attorney who practices immigration law.
Hope all works out well for you.

WIW

Have you put a last date for cashing, on your check?? I just want to know how to do it?
Anyway why did you put this Aug 17th as the last day in your check? It looks like you have some extraordinary vision on things....
Thanks for your wisdom and help to the IV community.
Anybody with July 19th receipt date got their Check encashed? How about Receipt Notice? EB-3 India.
I am worried about checks not being cashed yet. After Aug 17th the window is closed.

Hi, we applied to transfer my wife's out of state driving license to CT state but the application was denied.
The reasoning was that DMV's immigration check came back stating that her status is H4 but the documents we are carrying are EAD, I 485 receipt etc. She is using her EAD so we didn't renew her H4 along with my H1B.
At infopass we were told there is not much USCIS can do since we are still waiting for adjustment (I 485 pending) to Permanent residence status. DMV doesn't buy this argument as they insist her status should be 'pending application' .
We (immigrant community) will probably face more and more of these issues as long as we have retrogression.
Any one faced similar situation.? I have contacted Senators office regarding this bureaucracy and still waiting for response.
radhay..i guess it differs from state to state. i was in a similar situation..h4 before and now working on EAD. i got my dirving license renewed in CA without any problem..just showed them my EAD card.

USCIS do call the company, a friend of mine who already got his GC, USCIS called the company in India to confirm the employment.

Very good question. Depends on how one defines "Active":D
Some people can be awake while sleeping and some people can be sleeping while they are awake.
The question is are you awake or asleep? and what are you doing other than posting on IV for IV? :D

You really do not have to say good bye to GC. If your labor has been cleared, you can apply I-140 Premium processing with your present company. Apply perm and I-140 with this new mid sized company. Transfer PD to new I-140 with new company. Go to India to start your company have them outsource to you. GC is for future anyways, work on your new enterprise in India for 1-2-3 years untill your pd becomes current (whenever that happens). At that point you have an option to file I-485. You can still continue in India, with an option to returning or decide at that point if you want to stay in the USA for 2-3 months every-year to maintain GC for 5 years to become US Citizen.

I was worried about the Immigration status with the FHA loan processing. Glad it's not an issue.
Still debating whether to refinance via FHA or wait for a few months till the house prices are better and do a conventional loan. The FHA MIs are quite steep in my case ($20K upfront + $350 per month)

I need to talk to an immigration lawyer.
Can you refer me an Immigration lawyer in San Jose/Bayarea?
Also how much does he/she charge per hour?
I read about the free immigration question/answer through IV. Is there anything for Nov? Thanks.

Anyone please advice if I need to get verified the PIMS check before my h1 visa interview at Kolkata, I have an appointment on 1st week of Jan2011.
Please share if anyone has any idea one this
Thanks

check with your attorney whether they checked the option of upon approval of I-129 petition send a copy to KCC (kentucky consular center), if they did you are safe. To my understanding Electronic copy of your I-797 is visible to all cousulates thru a copy at KCC.

it doesn't boil down to who you trust more. Both opinions have its merits.
But you should base your decision on whether or not you have truly ported to a job with similar duties and if you have the paperwork to prove it. If you have all this, then evn if you do get RFE its not a bad thing, since you can prove that you did no wrong.
Just my 2 cents.
