I am a highly-skilled professional who entered this country legally. I've
been waiting for my US permanent resident visa -also known as "Green Card"
for the past several years along with 500,000 other educated, highly
skilled employment based (EB) immigrants. Many of us have been waiting for
our turn to get Green Cards for 5-10 years while consistently abiding by
all the laws of this country. Such long delays are due to tortuous and
confusing paper work, backlogs due to various quotas and processing delays
at US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS), other allied state and
federal agencies.
Several categories of EB immigrant visa (Green Card) numbers were
unavailable ("retrogressed") since the fall of 2005. For the past several
decades, the US Department of State (DOS) has been publishing advisories
known as visa bulletins once a month to announce the availability of
immigrant visa numbers. On June 13, 2007, after a gap of nearly two years,
DOS announced that all EB visa numbers would be "current" for the month of
July. This meant, irrespective of our "priority date" (date assigned to us
for our turn in the line for Green Cards), all of us were made eligible to
apply for some interim immigration benefits. This "priority date" refers
to the date when our labor certification (documentation verifying no US
citizen worker was available for a given job) had been filed.
Please note that 6/13 DOS announcement would not have led to immediate
green card for most of us; but at least it would have ensured us interim
benefits such as the right to travel and right to work for any employer-
this was still a welcome change. Especially, for dependent spouses who are
otherwise unable to work, this would have translated into right to travel
and work without restriction and thus channel their energies positively.
Several dependent spouses are also highly-skilled.
Tens of thousands of applicants spent thousands of dollars in legal fees,
immigration medical exams & vaccinations & getting various supporting
documents ready to file our immigrant petitions to USCIS, at times
inconveniencing our old parents in our home countries as well. It has been
an agonizing two weeks for us. Some of us to had to fly in our spouses
from our home countries or have had to cut short business trips. Hundreds
of millions of dollars were spent by thousands of immigrants in
preparation of their application. To our shock and dismay, on the morning
of July 2nd 2007, USCIS announced that EB visa numbers were not available
and all petitions filed in July would be rejected.
For the legal skilled immigrants this has been a rather traumatizing and
disheartening experience. These are people that are in the country
legally, paid taxes and followed all the rules.
We sincerely seek immediate congressional/ legislative remedial measures
which would (1)Reduce the enormous backlogs of green card petitions of
legal skilled immigrants (2)Ensure and request USCIS not to reject our
immigrant visa petitions filed in July and provide us interim benefits of
a pending immigrant visa petition. We make this sincere request with the
hope that people who played by the rules will be rewarded.
Sincerely,
XX

How about setting up a poll to get a rough idea we could create a poll with a salary range and EB level for example 48000~ 59999 EB3 48000~59999 EB2 60000~70000 EB3 60000~70000 EB2 etc. this would give us a rough Idea about Levels and corresponding EB categories. I suggest using numerical ranges Instead of Levels because some people may not know the levels.
This poll can give us some thing like X% of level 3 are EB2 and Y% of Level 2 are EB3 sort of estimates.

Hi Gurus,
I am filing 485 soon. But l have ported my priority date to latest I140. I am filing 485 based on the latest 140. My priority date is Jan 2001. I am filing my 485 will now, will uscis consider my priority date and process my case OR filing date which is june 20, 2007 and process accordingly. i.e some body filed on May 30, 2007 with PD Jun 2003 will consider for processing first? rather than my case?
thanks,
:confused:

Collect from whom?
You are not giving any credit card info.
Did they collect from India?
I don't think India will have that facility.
Could be collect call. I would not trust this.

Hey ags, I'm Confused here. Are you sure we can add spouse after the approval of I 485, providing the marriage certificate has a date of prior the approval date?
So if I do AOS on I 485, can spouse do counsular processing?
Is the time line 2 years or 180 days?

Sorry for any confusion. Here are the details :
My husband is on H1B visa and he is in US from past 4 years. I am on H-4 Visa and was in USA from past 2 years. We got extension in 2009 for another 3 years for H1 and H4. My husband stays in US but I came back to India for vacation. I appeared for H-4 visa stamping in US consulate in Delhi. After long wait they denied my H4 visa. My question is:
1) what are the options for me
2) Do they revoke my husband I797 H1 who is in US
3) What I have to do ..like appeal ..new petition..
Please advise..
sorry for your situation. its happening to others too. a friend (h1) and his wife(h4) went for stamping just last month in Mumbai consulate. They denied visa-stamping on the new employee-employer relationship clause. they are not fighting it with USCIS/Consulate. Its pretty ugly, USCIS approves the H1/H4 here and when people turn up for stamping they deny it. I am guessing as far as your husband is in US and in status his petition won't be revoked but if he goes for stamping outside US, then petition might get denied. Please ask your husband to talk to lawyers here in US.
Good luck.

I'm EB3 (ROW)...PD: May 2006. My I485 is pending more than 18 months and I140 is approved a year ago. Recently, my boss fired me. I left the company and got a better job within a week. thanks god.
Now my ex-employer is calling my lawyer and bringing some alligation against me and asking my lawyer to withdraw my case. He also mentioned to my lawyer that he is going to call the immigration and take action against me by withdrawing my case.
1...Does anyone have any idea how the immigration going to react after listening to his alligation against me?
2...by submitting any paperwork to them can he hamper my proessing?
3...Do i have anything to scare about?
4...what should i do now?
This issues a very crutial to me now. he is one of those nasty desi employer's who underpaid me last 6 years not just acting funny when I'm asking for my rights. He setup the whole alligation against me and have some office staff working and supporting him.
I need help.....please let me know what should i do....please people help me....
After 180 days I-485 is pending and I-140 is approved, your priority date remains valid even if your employer withdraws approved I-140. Basically, your ex-employer cannot stop the case, and as long as you find a new job in similar ocupation and very similar duties, you I-485 can still be approved. Read AC-21 for more information.
Suggestion: keep the employment termination letter/note/email for records for future reference.

I believe he just meant to say "not possible with one 140".
He just mentioned it in a confusing way.
"A petition approved on behalf of an alien under sections 203(b)(1), (2), or (3) of the Act accords the alien the priority date of the approved petition for any subsequently filed petition for any classification under sections 203(b)(1), (2), or (3) of the Act for which the alien may qualify. In the event that the alien is the beneficiary of multiple petitions under sections 203(b)(1), (2), or (3) of the Act, the alien shall be entitled to the earliest priority date."
The petition mentioned here is an I140 for EB1/EB2/EB3.
So it doesn't hurt to have more I140s approved. Whenever you do a "subsequent" petition, you just claim the earliest priority date (of the already approved ones).
I understand two I-140s, one existing (EB-3) and second new I-140 (EB2), but you have also mentioned more. Why need more than two, in what circumstances?

Infact, I got good news today. My MTR approved after 3 months. My 485 was denied due to withdrawal of I140 by previous employer (AC21 case).
So I had applied MTR and approved today. Looks like USCIS understood the error and approving all MTR (I didn't hear a single MTR rejection on AC21 case )

I believe u can apply ur own H4. because u have the H1 approval from ur spouse. just download form from uscis website. there is complete instruction over there.
Thx
Thanks! But if I apply for my own H4, I would require my copy of I797 and the I94 attached to that. My employer doesnt provide me with the copy of those. Would the documents from my husband good enough to apply in US?

Let me tell you one thing, "You've got guts, buddy", Congrats on the bold move. not many people dare to do that.
Can he do so? - Theoratically yes, practically: highly unlikely.
if he is a typical consulting guy with less than 50 emps, he won't do it, because such employers almost always make "adjustments" that puts them in extremely weak spot during such law suits. here are some examples:
- a guy was laid off, his new employer sent him on a project even before filing for his H1 transfer
-many consulting companies do not pay salary while the guy is on "bench"
- they many times knowingly/unknowingly commit tax/accounting fraud or regulatory mistakes that can cause serius consequences
- a friend of mine was interrviewed by a client and when the result was positive, his new would be employer called him at a McDonalds and asked him to sign the contract right there (within 30 minute of meeting), and my friend did. Now most people won't see anything wrong in here. but a lawyer told me that my friend was not given enough time to read/understand a legal document and to talk to a lawyer ideally enough time is about 2 weeks. How many small consulting companies give 2 weeks when the interview at client is clear?
In your case, the end client is not your employer's client. Ask him to show the contract between him and the end client.
bottom line of the story is: there are many defenses that one can play and win the case and/or even put the employer in trouble. That's why most small employers don't do much beyond sending a lawyer's notice (just to scare you enough to write down a check). A real nasty guy can even go one step further and file a law suit only to withdraw it later if you decide to fiight it.
Good luck buddy!
We do see such threads on the forum occasionally. There are several instances where members have posted negative comments about consulting companies and how employees are unhappy working for them.
I want to understand the reasons why people are not filing lawsuits against such companies yet? Why are we not reporting them to DOL and USCIS? Especially after filing I485 and expiry of 6 months, people are in a better position to file lawsuits against such employers.
IV can help only if people are willing to be helped and ready to take action.
If this system needs to be cleansed, then why aren't we doing it?
