I am in the same situation. I am on my 8th year of H1 and this is for the first time I am have heard so much hoopla that has made me real nervous. My lawyer has advised me against taking any risk. I already have the tickets but I am planning to postpone, apply for EAD and only then go to India.
Please note that this is only me and I might have a comletely different risk tolerance than you might have.
You may already know but, make sure you also have an APPROVED Advance Parole before travel.

Hi All,
I opened a service request with USCIS when my I485 was current in 09/08 and i got response saying that still investigation into my background remains open, so the case is not yet ready for decision. I filed my I 485 in August 2005 and in july 2007(then my file was current) also i was told that the background check is still going on.
Now we know that if it has been more than 180 days after we file I485, no need to wait for background check to process the petetion. My intention is to get my file out of this loop by the time PD becomes current. If any one had this issue and got it resolved, please advise me how i can handle it.
Thanks.

This was the first time I called up the USCIS help desk (1-800-375-5283) to find about AC21 180 days rule, when she asked what is this for I informed for change of employer.
I would like to know if that statement would be noted and would it create me any problems in future, as of now I don�t have any plans to change employer.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
My Case Details:
PD: EB2- 2006.
I-140 Cleared.
EAD: Received.
FP: Completed

Hi folks,
Does anybody know if there is a receipt for I-140?
I'd like to make sure that it was successfully received by processing center. Do you think it is polite to ask my company lawyer for this receipt or since she told me that it was filed I should just sit and relax...:rolleyes:

Moon mission is quite a technological jump! As per APJ, it all starts from looking into the sky and dreams....imagination, creativity.....
American dream is also lots of ups and downs....
Indians in IT and NASA are products of those dreams....
Nuclear cooperation between India and the US would change energy, infrastructure and development equations fundamentally...
All of the above impact us fundamentally as well.
Why STOP this thread as long as the context is technology, our future and life in 21st century?

On behalf of core group, I apologize to you and your wife for the abusive language that someone used.
We tried to moderate the forum posts. At any time, there are nearly 200-300 people reading the forums and nearly 20-25 posting. Its a tough thing to moderate every thread since we do this along with day-to-day fulltime jobs.
I have to close this thread otherwise this thread will spiral into a thread war that none of us want. And we cannot have such threads continue as its embarrassing for us all.
If you'd like, you can email me jay@immigrationvoice.org if you want to talk about this issue so that I can explain more.
Thanks for understanding.

I e-filed EAD renewal. On the I-797 Notice of Action that they mailed me, the "Priority Date" field is blank. The same is true for my last EAD notice of action as well which I did not check last time. Is it normally blank?
Is anybody else in the same boat?
I checked my receipt notice. PD is blank. I checked with a friend of mine and his receipt notice PD is blank too.
BTW mine is paper based filing.

As far as I know, you can file (or even decide not to file if you have H-1) anytime. This should not be an issue. In fact, one my friend's was in similar boat, he filed his EAD after gap of 3 months and got it approved.
EAD is only a backup for most of us if we are working on H1B. But it is better to have it renewed as you never know when you may have to use it due to layoff, firing or any other unfortunate event. It is more likely to happen due to current state of economy. CIS allows us to continue working on EAD after 180 days of filling 485 under AC21 rule.
However there are some unfortunate incidents going on where IO wrongfully denied 485 petitions when a person changed jobs using AC-21. I urge you to take part in IV AC-21 letters campaign which will help you and all of us to survive any unfortunate, unforseen job loss due to current downturn in economy. It is actully very easy, just print 4 pages and mail it thru' USPS. Won't even cost you $2. Remember this for yours and our future and peace of mind. (http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22182) I humbly request you to do so for sake of our community. Thanks!

we are going through it right now.
planning to file g-28 only and not AC-21 letter.
Will wait for a RFE to send a AC-21 letter.
Are you self filling G-28 or doing through another lawyer?
Thanks
Thanks for the info.
Planning to thru another lawyer - only because I dont know how to do it on my own and dont want to take any chance. Someone earlier mentioned that if we do it on our own - we may not receive any acknowledgement but if we do it thru antoher lawyer they receive some sort of confirmation.
I am not sure if its true or the logic behind it but thought of going thru a lawyer - he is charging me for both G-28 and AC21 even though AC21 is not done now (which is ok with me).
If RFE does come at some point - do you know how much time we typically have to reply?

Do you need a valid H-1B status if your H-1B stamp has expired. I don't have any H-1B stamp on my passport and my H-1B status (I-797) will expire on February 14th, 2008. I will then switch to EAD. I am traveling on Feb 23rds, 2008 (Chicago->JFK->Dubai-Pakistan).
So, do i still need a valid H-1B status even though, i will be traveling back on AP?
No you don't need. Whatever Rtarar said - thats what you need

In case of death: None, unless enough points are there and a child less than 16 years or non working spouse over 60 years.
I was trying to intrepret social security benefits at www.ssa.gov.
It reminded me, what my wife's doctor told us 3-4 years ago (my wife is with the same doctor for the last 6-7 years) � some people in US want to have a child born, when they are getting old � it took me 3-4 years to understand.
Here is story - My wife take X class of medicines due to diabetes (I think this means medicines can adversly harm growth of a child during pregnency). So doctor was trying to explain, whenever we want to have child what precaution we have to take and how they help in this type of situations. We asked doctor- how could we think of having another baby, when our kids are grown up, one finished MS, the other one is doing BS. Doctor�s reply was that some people in US want to have a child born, when they are getting old � there are reasons.
After interpreting SSA pages, I think, now I understand economic part of having child in old ages. If Mr A has accumulated enough social security points, Mr. A�s wife is not working, she is of 44 years and she becomes mother, this child is like insurance. If case of death of Mr. A, wife of Mr. A and Child of Mr. A will keep on getting social security benefits (this is up to 16 years). At the age of 60 (minimum age, when one can get Social Security benefits), Mr A�s wife can start getting her own Social Security benefits.
Getting term (life) insurance is not possible without GC. Three agents tried to help me at different times, they did not succeed � perhaps US lawas are like that. Thinking negatively getting GC may be long wait 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, even 30 years.
Just wondering, is it a common practice to have a child born in old ages as an insurance? Whether H1B people and people at GC path are aware of it?
For me this interpration is a learning and wanted to share it.

This was long overdue but here are the latest on the Tri Valley story. A federal grand jury here has indicted the president of a Pleasanton, Calif., university on 33-criminal counts, charging her with an array of violations, including visa fraud, money laundering and alien harboring, as a result of a two-year investigation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).
Tri-Valley University President Susan Xiao-Ping Su, 41, who also served as the school's chief executive officer, is accused of engaging in a two-year scheme to defraud the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) by submitting phony documents in support of Tri-Valley University's applications to admit foreign nationals on student visas. The indictment further alleges that after obtaining such approvals, Su fraudulently issued visa-related documents to student aliens in exchange for "tuition and fees."
Su was taken into custody Monday morning at her Pleasanton, Calif., home by HSI special agents. She made her initial appearance here in federal court shortly after her arrest.
In carrying out the scheme, Su is accused of making multiple false representations to DHS through Tri-Valley University's use of the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), which the U.S. government uses to monitor the "F-1" student visa program. Through her false representations, Su was able to unlawfully obtain and issue F-1 visa-related documents without regard to the students' academic qualifications or intent to pursue a course of study required to maintain a lawful immigration status.
According to the indictment, Su admitted and maintained foreign students in exchange for tuition and other payments. In furtherance of the F-1 visa scheme, Su also allegedly harbored multiple Tri-Valley University student-employees to assist her in making the false representations to SEVIS. The indictment further alleges the defendant engaged in multiple money laundering transactions totaling more than $3.2 million using proceeds she derived from the visa fraud scheme.

my company lawyer did not ask for any tax returns or w2 forms .. Should they be submitted as part of "initial evidence"
Tax returns are not part of "initial evidence". You have to provide them if asked by the USCIS.
BTW, the IRS will mail you tax transcripts for free if you call them. You will get them within a few days.

My in-laws attended visitor visa interview at Hyderabad Consulate on 25th Feb. My mother-in-law (not working) got her visa (no questions asked) but father-in-law (an electrical engg manager, still working for central govt) was asked to fill out a questionnaire related to his professional experience and then given a white slip with a case number/email address and asked to email his resume/CV for further processing. He was told it would take 7 days to process his application.
I tried searching for similar cases on various forums and found some cases but couldn't find information on how long they took to approve the visa. So I was just wondering if anybody here has any further updates on such cases. Appreciate any feedback.
TIA.
