The receipts will be generated not by Priority Date but by Physically received date. This was obvious right from beginning, but some questions were raised on this forum.
Even though receipts are generated based on received date, I assume they will process by priority date , if not what is use of priority date after filing I-485?
Gurus, any body know how USCIS will process 485 applications?

On bench with GC... Thats like you are out of job isn't it? On H1 if this happens its also illegal. I assume bench means no pay or LOWER than normal pay for the job.

Is your lawyer your lawyer or company's lawyer?
You must consult a lawyer who has lot of experience with AC21, EAD/H1 issues.

Thanks for quick reply. I know that company can rent out but I am just betting for 1 year. That would give me some boost to pay part of mortgage. Later I would even manage on my own.

I may be wrong but I remember reading that sometime back US made rule that the h1 stamping can be done only at your home country (country of nationality). So doubel check on that.

Please consult a lawyer, so my advise is just a suggestion .....
iPhone App selling is just like buying and selling stocks, which does not require a h1b or EAD. The only thing would be to report the income in tax return....I maybe wrong.....so please do check with a lawyer..

That explains it.If your company is blacklisted you are in a deep hole and should have a backup plan for employment. You should consult more good lawyers.

Friends, can someone help answer a few questions for considering filed I-485 and adding spouse at the later. I am planning to get married in the January or february time frame in India. I have read at several places that one can add spouse anytime BEFORE 485 APPROVAL. I work on H1B, I am from India and my priority date is Oct 06 with approved EAD and I 485 pending. I have some specific questions in case my priority date becomes current. My question is -
1. Can I travel and enter on my H1 even if my AP is approved/pending?
2. Is it safer to travel on AP even if I have a valid/invalid H1 stamped on my passport?
3. Can my wife enter on H4 and then we add her name to 485 when she is in US?
Thanks for any/all additional help you can provide with my scenario. I can be flexible if someone has any suggestions that can help my case.
Of course I will be taking my lawyer's advice and use your suggestions to enchance my knowledge and present some scenarios to the lawyer.
Thanks for all your help!!

We have a wealth of information from A to Z on US Immigration, why dont we ourselves write articles and editorials and get them published in the News Papers, Journals, etc?
Why are we waiting for some one to come to us and take information to write articles on us. Does Newspapers check the background of authors to verify if they are citizens/non-citizens/green card holders/ H1B's. What all matters to them is quality and authenticity of the articles.
Do you folks think this a good option to pursue?
Lets put it to work.

Hello,
I am on F1 visa from India and doing PhD US university. My husband is in H1B visa from 2007 November. I would like to apply for green card via National Interest Waiver. When I asked an attorny, he said that since you are from India, it will take few years to get EAD. But I read that you can apply I-40 and I-485 concurently and get EAD card in an year.
Can anyone help me please?
It's not cancelled yet. But there's been talk that USCIS may terminate it soon.

05/05/2008: USCIS May Initiate Rule Making Process in June 2008 for Termination of Concurrent I-140/I-485 Filing Procedure
* As we reported earlier, the USCIS has been considering halting the concurrent filing procedure quite some time. Initially it was planning to commence the procedure to publish this proposed rule in November 2008. However, the latest information reflects that the proposed may be released next month, June 2008 with the two months of comment period through August 2008. People are cautioned that this is just a "proposed" rule stage. After the comment period is over, the agency will still have to go through the final rule making procedure with another cycle of OMB review and publication of the rule. There are nothing to panic about at this time. However, people may be conscious of the upcoming change in the filing procedures for I-140 petition and I-485 application from the current single-tier procedure when the visa number is available to the two-tier procedure. Please stay tuned to this website for this important development of immigration procedure changes.

It's a bit of a guess without seeing the images, however when the light source i.e. a lamp, or a window is in the picture area it forces the camera to average its brightness into the exposure calculation. The result = dark pictures. I remember way back when when I was just getting started I had no Idea how dark it realy was when I started shooting indoors. Uping the sensitivity As previosly described is most likely necessary. (either that or a tripod, and neck clamps for your subjects as was done in the days of tintypes.) You might also consider bouncing a flash off of a white ceiling or wall to soften the light and avoid the harsh lighting you have learned to dislike.

Let me answer:
During your application for naturalization, USCIS will look at your old files and see if you work for the new employer (if AC21 is used) after getting the GC.
If you didn't send a Memo, then in the USCIS file, it will show the original petitioner as your employer.
If you send a Memo, then in USCIS file, it will show the new employer using AC21 as your employer.
What is the difference? USCIS will ask for proof on your naturalization application that you work for the employer (that is in their file) right after getting the GC.
If in USCIS file it shows the original petitioner and not the AC21 employer, then you cannot prove that you work for the original employer after getting the GC.
If in USCIS file it shows the AC21 employer, then you can prove that you work for the AC21 employer after getting the GC.
Remember that you must work for the employer for 180 days after getting the GC. The word "employer" means whatever is in USCIS file.

immigration authorities have received about 300,000 applications for high-skilled-employment visas since July 1, federal officials said yesterday.
Citizenship and Immigration Services, the federal agency, was still receiving applications for employment visas yesterday, the last day of a special period it announced on July 17 for immigrants with professional skills to file petitions for permanent residence visas, known as green cards. As a result, the total tally of applications received in the last six weeks was not available

Hi All,
I am planning to get my H1B stamped in Chennai, India.
I got H1b extension last month for 3 years. I am planing to visit India in the month of Aug.
I need to know when do I make an appointment?
and will my name be added to PIMS if I make an appt?
Do I have to go to Chennai or I can go to any other Consulate for stamping?
What about PIMS verification, is there anyway I can have my name added to this database before I travel to India?
Anybody has any idea about this? Thanks in advance

He is the best player in cricket history. I admire his passion and dedication about cricket.

Some I can think of are..
Second highest number of ODIs ( 2 more to equal S.Jayasuria)
Second highest number of tests ( 2 more to equal S.Waugh)
Most runs in ODIs, Tests.
Highest individual score in ODI.
Most number of centuries in ODI, Tests
Most number of 50s in ODIs.
The amazing thing is he still has the drive and enthusiasm to play at the highest level. And play really well!
Congratulations, Sachin!
