With the situation currently we are facing on H-1B, in my opinion congress may do some quick fix before the CIR implementation. Reforming the H-1B visa, I do not think any thing is wrong in that. In this process of reforming H-1B visa, can we incorporate our mission of at least filing I-485 without visa availability?
Is this too much to ask?

I think it is apparent that people on this forum are frustrated with media representation and lack of understanding of the problems that our group, and those that we represent, face.
Without wishing to get into general political debates, it is probably a fair assumption that American citizens who are actively part of grassroots activism would be concerned about our situation if they knew about it.
There is a voice in numbers, and I believe it might be a good idea to reach out to organizations such as www.indymedia.com (http://www.indymedia.org/en/index.shtml). This is a main hub, there are various regional versions of the organization.
Just another thought on how to publicize our issues.

During this tough times of un-employment, it is very unfortunate that many of us lose our jobs. As a result many of us lose medical benefits too. I would like to explore our options for medical insurance (which is the most needed) for someone who lost their jobs and cannot afford COBRA coverage since it is very expensive. IF you are unemployed and if you have bought your own medical insurance (not as a group plan through the employer), but bought it as an individual plan, can you throw in some details. This will be helpful to many who have lost or going to lose jobs, for them to understand how much they need to spend for different kinds of medical coverage. Thanks to everyone.

The bottom of the "Receipting & Lockbox" update clearly says that it may take upto 14 days to get physical receipt or Checks cashed for the dates they say Current. Which means July 2nd 485 apps are declared Current on Aug 17th , so the receipts can come as late as Aug31st i.e after Labor day weekend Sep 4th.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if its ok to mail my EAD & AP and spouse's EAD & AP renewals to be mailed in the same package to Texas? I can't find any posts regarding this.
The PO Box address for EAD is different from AP. But i think for non USPS carriers, there is only one address for Texas center (4141 N augustine rd).
So If I use this address can I mail all the 4 applications in the same package?
I am not trying to save money but feel that keeping all the apps together might help especially primary and secondary applicants...
Thanks.

Mark my words.... President Bush will single handedly make sure to pass the bill as it is.....
No one can stop it.
Do you all think it is just a co incidense that all the dates became current just when this bill (which was supposed to be in grave :rolleyes: ) is revived by those who extremely opposed it?
Do you know how many people will stop giving a damn, because they just filed their 485 s?
People like me who are result of bad practice employers are still here, and lucky ones will depart.....
We have been dealt a crucial blow here.

I've just run a test - only when I update the control dimensions does the opacity interpolate correctly - what do I have to do to get this working without changing the entire control? Do I have to target the layoutroot and then set the propertytarget to the path of the child control of layoutroot to get the opacity anim to work?

The Sojourners are condemning the new law and promising civil disobedience. Here is their leader Reverend Jim Wallace's statement: The law signed today by Arizona Gov. Brewer is a social and racial sin, and should be denounced as such by people of faith and conscience across the nation. It is not just about Arizona, but about all of us, and about what kind of country we want to be. It is not only mean-spirited - it will be ineffective and will only serve to further divide communities in Arizona, making everyone more fearful and less safe. This radical new measure,...

HI All,
Anyonw planning on going to school this year full time? I am planning to...I have an EAD/AP that I can use and I know several IV'ans may be debating the same isssue
Now for the gurus who have already researched this:
1. Can one avail of financial aid (FAFSA) if has Advanced parole. I'm not 100%sure because its says 'indefinate parole" and i'm not sure if ours can be classified as "indefinate"
2. How does one activate EAD/AP (does one have to travel outside the country). I am currently still on H1B with 3 year extension granted but visa not stamped
3. One can go to school F/T on EAD. But what are the options to preserve one's PR application (..after all its been over 5-6 years since we filed are applications)...assuming its been over 6 months since I485 was filed and AC21 benefits kick in. And, is a leave of absence a better option than quitting.
I wanted to start a debate of what we are doing because I know several of us will be in the same boat.

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!

Yes there are limits to salary. I will try to post more details on it when time permits and as I myself find details from my own research.
Basically, stay above what was in your labor/140. Do not go too high, 10% per year raise is ok. Job duties should stay same or similar. You can be a sr. software programmer from a software programmer but not a VP or Architect...(you got my point).
This is a gray area and tough to get a correct advice easily.
This is also a big issue for our community since people cannot get promoted or take big salary raises due to this limitation. Ask people who are stuck in 485 stage for many years.
I know a lot of people are counting days to just jump into a new job after 180 days. But make sure you factor in all the risks when you do this. Be prepared for an RFE on it.
and BTW I am reading so many posts that say you can jump jobs before 180 days. Please do not misrepresent the Yates Memo and regulations to prove a point. You need to stck to the job for 180 days definitely. The only exception is that if you are sure that the job offer will wait for you indefinitely in infinite future when you get an RFE. Do not take immigration laws lightly. And yes, always seek advice from a good lawyer when you take such important decisions. Forums are simply opinions from people without a law degree or experience.

i_aged_out
03-22 10:26 PM
Hello everybody ! I am 22 years old. My parents had applied for GC under the employment based category. I, unfortunately, aged out before my parents applied I-140 because of the stupid backlogs. So I aged out even before an I-140 was filed. I was reading the Child protection act info and could not understand if I will be "automatically classified to the appropriate category" for GC which is Family 2B and retain my "original PD." Does this apply to me as I had not even filed I-140 when I aged out ? My parent's PD is Oct 2000 so does this mean I am under Family 2B with Oct 2000 PD ?? Please help me out. I am sure many of you with sons/daughters that are in a similar situation. Thanks

Given the situation for 485 denial. AFAIK, You have an option of filing for H1B (not counted against quota) based on your B's labor approval and pending 140. Once you use the EAD, technically you don't have the H1B status to transfer or extend. Hence, it will require you to go to consulate (b/c approval will come without I94) to stamp, and start working for Company B after you return.

You can definately get a 1 year extension based on the fact that your labor is approved and is more that 365 days before your h1, 6 year limit ended. You can also port your I-140 PD if you have a copy of the I-140. This you can do when you file for I-140 with the new company. With regards to a 3 year extension with the new company "Y", there is no clear ruling on this. But you can try for a 3 year extension, and you might get it if you are lucky ( I've read that people were able to get it).
