Just venting out on IV Forum will not get us anywhere.
Our lawmakers are unaware of the issues that affect us and it is really upto us (each one of us) to educate them.
The most important thing that somebody can do for themselves is to take an appointment with your congresswo/man's office and talk to them. It is not that difficult. Just 1 hour of your time.

I think u r in a trap here. I recently talked to a HR of a desi company and he clearly told me his boss does not want to file for 485 for all eligible applicants and is working on strategies to fool his employees into prolonging things till dates retrogress.
U can choose ur lawyer, u don't have to let employer know u applying for 485 at all. Do not link ur lawyer and employer for any reason. Keep them both away. U already have 140 approved and u have nothing to lose.
Don't fall into ur employer - lawyer trap
Sats123, Chanduv23 is correct, also reading that with the paystubs you can avoid the employer letter saying that you work in such position and for such salary, finding out what position they used to file your labor (did you find it in the database on my previous post) and considering that you are about to get ripped off, it would be advisable that you go through that lawyer that someone was saying charges 1000 to file your papers and 500 for your spouse;
Did you get the medicals? I know it takes time now to get an appointment, and if you want to file the I-485 on your own, please ask if you have questions, I think you can get out of this trap and before the immigration rates hike on July 30th.

The Telugu news channels certainly dramatize the issue and blow up the story. I sympathize with the students and their parents for the difficult time that they are facing. But, these students are not being tortured like criminals and terrorists.
I believe these students were questioned by the USCIS and released on bail. Because these students are required to give evidence against Tri-Valley, they are released on bail after questioning. They pose a risk of flight and hence they are radio tagged.
If these students were attending classes like thousands of F1 students across the country when the university was shut down, they do not have anything to worry about. They can leave the country or transfer to a different university. If they were legally working as interns in positions that are allowed by the CPT, they still have nothing to worry about.
If these students were working at gas stations and convenience stores across the country instead of attending classes, they have broken the law. They are liable for prosecution. CPT is intended to complement your education with practical training. Working at gas stations and convenience stores does not qualify for CPT. For almost all disciplines except IT & software engineering, working for software consultants on CPT is illegal.
These students bring F1 program and Indians into disrepute. Incidents like this also give ammunition to anti-immigration lobby in this country.

Hello Gurus,
This is my first post. I had filed 485/140 in Aug. 2007. 140 got approved this March 2008. I donot have pay stub for last 3 months. I am looking for change. My labor is a substituted one( PD 2004). It has skills mentioned of Oracle EBS. I am working on Java/J2EE. I am looking for a new Job with Java/J2EE skills. I am worried that my new offer letter with Java skills mentioned would create a problem for me.
Please Gurus, can you advice me as to whether I can do that? Will staying on bench create a problem, as I donot get salary on bench.
Please help me.

adibhatla,
Could you please review my situation? My attorney told me that I can not work untill the decission comes out from USCIS. In 485 denial notice it was mentioned that ....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upon consideration, it is ordered that your application for permanent residence, form I 485, filed on Nov 1 2004, to adjust your status to that of lawful permanent resident, be denied for the following reason (s):
On February 13 2008, the US citizenship and Immigration service�s issues a revocation on the underlying form, immigrant petition for alien worker. Since the underlying petition is revoked, a visa is immediately not available. As such you cannot adjust status to that of a lawful permanent resident. Therefore, the form I-485 application is denied.
8 C.F.R274a.14 (b)(1)(i) allows termination of employment authorization when it appears that any condition upon which it was granted has not been met or no longer exists. If you have received an I-765 for classification C9 based upon this pending I485, you are reminded that this EAD is no longer valid and can not be used to allow yourself to work in the United States.
The decision leaves you without lawful immigration status���.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After filing MTR (I290B) we received receipt number SRC-09 -044-xxxxx
Notice Type: receipt Notice.
Amount received $585.00
It states that
This notice doesnot grant any immigration status or benefit.It is not even evidence that this case is still pending. It only shows that the application or petition was filed on date shown...
The notice number you are referring is same as I mentioned or different?
I will appreciate your time and help in this regard. I will get back to you if you need further clarifications..

EB2 likes visa bulletin predictions.
EB3 does not.
That explains the green or red in my opinion.
Accessing IV forums after a long time... posting to this thread, though not predecting on VB's... May be the data that were made available through USCIS Home Page (http://www.uscis.gov) (http://www.uscis.gov/USCIS/New%20Structure/3rd%20Level%20(Left%20Nav%20Children)/Green%20Card%20-%203rd%20Level/Pending%20Form%20I485%20Reports.pdf) already gave some hint on how the PD's are going to be in the monthly VB's and most people understand the number and are not predicting any good movement and not posting any on threads like this. Only the luckly EB2-I folks, who are getting a good chunk of the numbers for now thorugh spill over etc want to predict.. but again, too many questions there too... if quartely spillover or will happen in FY last quarter or something else... or .... The VB's / PD's etc.. nothing is going to make any difference and ease the pain of pending EB AOS applicants, unless there is change in law that would provide something to alleviate the EB backlog... When it is going to happen.. any time from now and at the least we can hope will happen before the end of Obama's Presedency like we hoped CIR would have happened before Bush left office :mad:

Mercies,
We appreciate ur apprehension, but please do not sow unnecessary seeds of doubt. As it is, making most legal immigrants take part in this struggle, is like milking a male buffalo.
If you feel that these efforts are being wasted, then you are free to watch from the sidelines. Pls do not take this as a personal attack on u, but you are one of many many such immigrants who are sitting on this fence.
Regarding the professionalism shown by people here, i would really ask you not to attack without fully understanding the efforts taken by people who have formed this group. People have been travelling back and forth to DC to try and establish a lobbyist firm. Instead of criticizing please do your part by helping and doing something.
People have been approaching their communities for help, researching pro-immigrant organizations and working with them to get support. Even arranging for news sites to do something for us.
Please, we urge you not to sow seeds of doubt.
Go read the posts on the other website, and you will see how important it was to counter this guy's posts that were raising basic doubts about IV.
To have prompt responses is extremely important! If you brush aside negative comments from 'male buffalos' and not counter them - we will never be able to get them into action!
Anyway, however clumsy my efforts, I could not just sit and watch & not try to get doubts addressed.

I did not understand 'are not outside of processing time'. Can you please explain in detail.
My other thought is for July 2007 485 filer, 180 days is already completed. Assume the namecheck started on Aug 2007....
NSC is curretly processing EB I-485 cases filed before July 30, 2007. TSC - cases filed before April 10, 2007. So according to the USCIS policy: "If at any point your case should become more than 30 days outside our normal processing time, and you haven't received a written decision or update from us within the last 60 days, you can help us by calling customer service and letting us know. We will research your case, see what needs to be done to get it processed, and get back to you with an explanation."
I.e. NSC cases filed before July 1st are considered outside of processing time. The USCIS explains it in the latest name check FAQ posted today.

I find the requirements for H/L visa at Hyderabad quite legit.
Asking employer (petitioners) last 2 years tax filing records + State Unemployment Wage Report + list of employees ensures that Petitioner really has a job offered ready and is not just a plan shop which would get head-count and hold them on zero/less pay on bench while they find a client.
Currently this is what is happening in certain cases which is considered a fraudulent use of the visa.
As a result of ramped fraud (On bench w/o assignment and not paid salary in full) the consulate is asking for all paystub and bank statements (which would show regular pay check deposits) to prove that petitioner (employer) did really pay regular salary. Otherwise, both petitioner and employee are de-frauding by not paying (employer) and not reporting (employee).
What's wrong in asking these documents?

logiclife,
Your logic is beyond me. On one hand you seem to disagree with the practice of labor substitution but on the other hand you are more than happy to provide the recipe for it. Are you for it or against it. Or may be you are just trying to help an IV member.
It may be legal but should be discouraged to say the least.
I dont like that practise of labor substitution. Its unfair to everyone who cant do it, which is like 99.99 % of people. However, I am saying that its legal because it is. But by saying its legal, I am not saying that I am glad it happens.
If every one of labor petitions out there coming out of Dallas and Philly BECs are up for grabs then the priority dates will never move forward as newer employees keep getting ahead of those who are stuck.
The reason I am advising this guy is because I dont want him/her to get trapped at an employer where he is in a vulnerable position. I know this kind of employers very very well and they are inhumane (understatement). These are the guys who would make Jack Abramoff and Tom Delay look like ethical saints. You get the point. That is why I am saying that you need body armor when dealing with this kind of employer. That is why I would like this fellow to get his own immigration lawyer to handle everything so that HE/SHE has visibility and control, otherwise he/she is going to end up getting GC even after all of us have our GC after retrogression is over .
