People,
Now days how much time is it taking to renew AP and EAD?
I'm in CA so I think NSC is where my paper work might go (not sure).
Thanks.

The mere mention of Fragomen makes my blood boil :mad::mad:. This law frim is the most useless in my opinion. They have no concern for their eventual client. My labor application was rejected :( because of the inefficient ppl at Fragomen. Their attitude was still so casual as if nothing happened. I am forced to use them but I would not recommend this Law firm even to an enemy.

All,
Is LUD mandetory after finger printing? I applied for EAD for my wife and me on 5/21. Sent supporting docs and had LUD on 5/23. Went for finger printing on 6/10 but no LUD so far. I am concerned if the finger printing center sent the data to USCIS or not. Our EAD expired 7/30 so I am concerned.
Thanks

If you get an MBA from Sloan or Wharton or Harvard or Berkeley, nothing like it. I know of few people who have not done very well after getting MBAs from these schools. If you want to continue writing comp. programs, then of course there is no need for it. But how many people want to do it forever?
But I agree with Tito to some extent. Especially, if the degree is from even a slightly lower ranked school like Arizona or Northwestern, the returns are not there, and there is a great deal of evidence in that direction.
Having actually studied this data (and being in the business of teaching) gives me some perspective.
But it's still just my 2 cents.

Thanks to all the moral support given by Chandvu,Pd Recapturing and all others.
With all your wishes and almighty blessings today I got MTR approval and I485 into reopen status.
My earlier employer revoked I 140 in Sept 08 . Applied MTR in OCT and got MTR approval and 485 reopened notification today.
However online still not updated - may be site is still down.
Thanks again.

probably the best post i've seen on this board. good points....I did sometime back.
Given thanksgiving is barely a week away, we can be certain of the usual platitudes directed at immigrants - this is a good time to remind the average American how far they have strayed from their roots and forgotten the true sentiment behind the tradition. Immigrants have always been hated and reviled by those that got here earlier - but the current anti-immigrant sentiment is vastly different in scale and sophistry due to the times we live in. If every IV member signs up 10 citizens to the immigrant cause, we should easily be 100,000 strong in a couple of weeks. It could be anyone from your advisor at school who mentored you to your buddies at work - even the stinkin relatives should be harassed. Though CIS and Numbersusa pretend that they are a product of the current anti-illegal sentiment, they started out much before the so-called 'wave' started. And they have adapted and honed their strategies very well to crush whatever relief Congress contemplates/passes. Consider the way CIS was initially dedicated to 'researching' immigrant issues that they would complain about the media's positive stories about immigrant contributions as merely anecdotal evidence not worthy of rebuttal. Now they are suddenly fond of anecdotal evidence themselves since experts began demolishing their claims of job-stealing and other baseless charges convincingly(esp CFR's Sebastian Mallaby) using empirical evidence-they shamelessly stoop to use someone's sob story to make their case. So, as repugnant as their motives are, they are too transparent for their own good- and they can't cover their tracks -which is good for us since we are appealing to the fair minded. Remember - every one in the US is an immigrant or an offspring of one. They have always been hated and reviled -so if someone who benefited from the immigrant tradition of this nation wants to turn around and deny it to those following him/her even though their ancestors did the same thing at a great emotional/economic cost to the then existing natives- they have a higher bar in explaining why the current bunch shouldn't continue to benefit from the great tradition-merely being bigoted but sophisticated enough to hide it isn't enough. so don't lose heart but dont sit on your ass either.

Also should I attach my photocopy my OPT card also or just current EAD card is sufficient?
If you e-file then you provide information for both. First I-485 EAD and then OPT card
If you do paper filing only I-485 EAD.
Depending on how you have applied, furnish information.
I have summarized my experiences, which is enriched by others in the following thread http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showthread.php?t=18737. You may find some useful information.

Companies were vague on numbers. So how could they satisfy Senators. I knew only a few companies gave detail about open positions including Microsoft, Intel and oracle. How you can impress Senate or house? But anti immigrants gave all the layoff numbers, h1b numbers used and details of abuses happened for past few years. It is not just money power will win. With facts and numbers if you have money power then you can win. That is reason for past 3 years H1b numbers or GC numbers were not increased inspite of heavy lobbying.

Yes but dont you think that the Call Center would be notified about the same??
Guess what I called again and this time the poor soul knew NOTHING about I-485 rejections!! :p He put me on hold and finally said, "We have received no such notice that they are rejecting I-485s, so if you applied it should be processed".
So much for "educated" call center workers. If this call center was in India, atleast we would all get ONE answer. It may have been the wrong answer, but atleast it would be CONSISTENT :P

This is so confusing. But I-129 does have a section to identifying new vs. continuing employer. Isn't moving to a new employer automatically means that new paycheck MUST come from new employer regardless of whether existing employer has canceled the H1B or not. If you don't intend to work for new employer they MUST cancel the H1-B or you should request them to cancel it ? Otherwise it will bound to generate the confusion that's apparent from the I/O looking at your petition.
I am thinking it can be interpreted either way, but nothing in the laws says one way or the other. It is all up to I/O's interpretation.
IMHO: Right think would have be:
1. Employer-X Files new H1
2. Employer-2 Withdraws existing H1
3. You changed your mind
4. Employer X Withdraws H1
5. Employer 2 Files a NEW H1

I am amazed in the solidarity just by seeing the responses. But if i think deeper, this rally is not for some national cause or for some greater benefit.
Every single person here is doing this for one's own SELFISH reasons. Why then are we talking like we are marching to save the planet or save the poor animals going to slaughter or human trafficking or AIDS prevention or even the war in Iraq.
Yes, we make things easy for people down the road (however that is not our true intention, our true intention is just about how to get the card faster) but trying to pull in more people to the rally by playing on people's guilt is not the approach. You say it like you see it. We want people to come so I CAN GET MY GREEN CARD SOONER. Thats all. So everyone has the same motive...thats all. Nothing more or nothing less. Everyone is going for A SELFISH INTEREST...nothing based on higher principles of duty, sacrifice or to ensure higher morals of life. Everything is for sensual enjoyment.
Dont write like we are seeking independence or freedom.
I guess...my head will start to roll...sorry for looking at things differently, I dont mean to find fault but i think this is just one big rally everyone wants to get their green card sooner. Nothing more than that...in my opinion..really not even about folks who may apply in 2010?
Tell me if there is anything that is not selfish. For me, even saving the world is SELFISH thing to do since you want to LIVE in it. We are fighting against a broken system. A system which is so unfair. You do not have to always fight for saving the world or saving lives.

One more question.
Where do you file if you are filing at the Texas Service Center?
It says:
USCIS Texas Service Center
P.O. Box 851182
Mesquite, TX 75185-1182
However Fedex/UPS will not deliver to PO Boxes. So does that mean we can send it ONLY via USPS?

I agree with concept of sending ac21 letter but there are similar experiences that this letter is ofcourse of hardly any consideration.
AC21 is a law, if erraneously denied it should be opened by MTR...as ppl have underlined , it doesnt matter whether a person used EAD or H1B. This whole discussion is triggered by employer revoking 140 not becoz USCIS is denying due to I129. Its all in the IO if hez not aware of AC21 thats our trouble begines. :( but i have not heard of any failure of AC21 MTR so far ...
prince_charming, you had mentioned that you had done H1 transfer with AC21.
I think it was mentioned in one of the posts in Murthy site that such a situation could lead to denial of I-485 as it would constitute abandonment of AOS application. One should use EAD after filling AC21.

Come on, man. We are paying too much attention here. Look, there is always somebody stuck somewhere. People are stuck in BEC, in other contries. People are stuck in Afganistan, Bangalore, there are hungry people stuck in Africa. So? If there are hungry people, then I can't enjoy my dinner then? Someone always has to come and say "you enjoy and there are people stuck somewhere"? What's your reaction would be if someone come on your wedding and start complaining that he is impotent? - these are a little extreme examples, just to make a point.
I'm a June filer, and this July thing will hit me too, but I still congratulate those July filers. So what? I understand that we will start getting our EADs in a year (so we would be applying for next EAD once we got current one). I understand that USCIS officers will be irritated and pissed, they will be under tons of application and everybody will be calling and bugging them. So? I realize that it maybe will take 3-4 years for us to get GC. So? I realize that DOS might retrogress now dates for many years on Oct, and will not do the same stupid mistake as making dates current and unleashing the voluntary slaves. So?
Today was little tiny success and it was day of tiny celebration. There is day for complaining and there is day for celebration.
oh god...people stuck at BEC are compared to people "stuck" in afghanistan/africa. Dont understand what they are stuck for... :o

Is it really that bad in canada? I think if you are looking for jobs (no.s & salary) comparable to US that won't happen. But I think the general quailty of life in canada is pretty comparable to US.
Same school system/corporate env/law enforcement/etc ..
I don't think any place will compare to living in US as far as # of available jobs/salary is concerned. You may find more jobs in India but the general quality of life in India is still sub-par. If it were really at par with west, nobody would be trying to immigrate here.
I am sorry to tell you that by going to Canada, in the end you may be better off going back home. I lived there as a PR and I have many Canadian citizens that are tired of the lame system back in the Socialist Canada.
As a general note, I think if you have already been in US 8-9 years you have already made enough investment and sacrifice. Its worth waiting for some more time. But set your own timeframe, don't wait endlessly. Trust me this can go on, this might be a well thought poicy decision to slow down processing at BEC's and introduce retrogression. This will trigger a lot of ppl like us to leave and they can get the work done cheaper (off course, there is always more ppl ready to fill my shoes).

I gave all my signed I485/G28/I325/I765/I131/693/Photos forms by June 8th. They filed mine on June 27th. They reviewed it for 17 days.
They never attend email or calls. Hope mine gets accepted.
I sent my documents to them on June 10th and due to my persistent push they mailed on June 19th . But general responses are more than decent.

As far as I know, if one goes to UK on a work permit, the spouse can start working from the beginning itlsef. The professional and the spouse get their automatic PR in 4 years just by being there. There are similar examples in other countries, but, the fact is that if we have to be in the US, we have to go by "their rules".
I admire US administration's guts to openly admit and declare that they are biased and work on a case by case basis or at will when it comes to looking out for their own interests, even in the immigration (Not to mention, they look confused as well).
For example, how is a spouse of an L1 visa holder anyway different from a spouse of and H1 ? The difference is that the US government presents the L2 spouses with an EAD at arrival and restricts the H4 spouses to home.
Well, I think we should take one thing at a time, and the current task in hand at IV is more than enough to comprehend and fight for, adding the H4 issue eventually may add value, but not at this juncture.
