Guys,
This is a very positive development. Chinese are suing based on EB3 China visas used in 2008 & 2009 which were 2058 and 1077 respectively. Which are far less than 2500 that the law actually allows without spillover. This is awesome. Go Chinese friends!
Pappu sir,
Do we (EB3I) know the number of applicants who were approved green card from EB3 I in the last three years? I suspect that the same would have happened here too. We need to also follow (Law) suit.

There is a clause saying that you need to be in status for last 180 days since your last entry to US. And since u are in good status for past 180 days u r good. Consult a lawyer on this as well, but I think u may eb fine
Incorrect.
This is for I-485 filing only and it is
out of status days should be < 180 days since the last entry into USA

Hi,
Could some one let us know while applying for H1 Extension do we need to provide notarized documents if one has traveled outside US on H1B. Are these documents mandatory ?
Also what's the general processing time for H1 Extension.I mean how many days does it take..

I find it difficult to digest that parents ship their infant children to someone else to raise.
Shantanup:
Circumstances my friend...Circumstances
1. Either you dont have kids to understand
2. Or you are blessed/lucky enough to have great circumstances to raise your kids personally.
You have expressed your feeling that it is difficult to digest and I respect it. Thanks for voicing your opinion which BTW did not give me any information on what documents are required. Others have responded, Thanks to the responders and you too Shantanup!
It helps the situation when one asks for a question and one is able to answer instead of voicing ones own personal problem/opinion. Anyways I wish all well to you and hope you never have to ship your kids!!
Best Wishes, Mattresscoil!!

Hi, this is my situation:
- I have L2 Visa, because my husband has L1B Visa. This year, the visa expires and we have 3 new options: extension for L1 and L2 Visa, H1 and H4Visa or Green Card.
- In the other hand, I have my own business. I have and EAD (work permit) and SSN.
Questions:
1. Which of the 3 options do you recommend us to get? Why?
2. I understand that under H4, I am not able to get a work permit. Do I need a work permit to continue doing business by myself? Or it is required even to run my business?
Thanks

I agree with the previous post that most of the House conservatives are right now trying to fight the bigger evil in their eyes - illegal immigration. Yesterday, on Cavuto on Business (Fox News), Tom Tancredo was waxing eloquent on the fact that he favors legal immigration, how he was the grandson of Italian immigrants blah blah blah. But remember, it was these very people who had forced the EB provisions out from S.1932. However, if Tancredo has to make any impact on American politics and be a serious player, he has to take these tactical positions favoring legal immigration when the talk everywhere is illegal immigration.
So what to take out of this? We should try and pin a lot of these "anti-immigrant" people down on their position on SKIL while they are trying to justify their position on illegal immigration, by saying they favor legal immigration. . I guess now is the time to act and get everyone to support SKIL, while they cannot appear to be inconsistent with their position on legal immigration.

There is nothing wrong in asking but the attorney has no right to reveal the information to you although some do. Did you try to make that request through your employer?
I think some members requested a copy of 140 approval notice from USCIS by filing a freedom of information request. Not sure how though.

Where you filed I-485 is not a criteria to select where the EAD application should be submitted (renewal or first time). Just check the state and supporting service center and file it there. I filed my I-485 in Nebraska alongwith first time EAD and AP. But now (as written in I-765 instructions), I need to file it in the service center that processes my state (Georgia). Hope it helps.

Hi,
I'm considering relocating back to India after getting my EAD since I don't know how long it's going to take to actually get the I-485 approved. My questions are:
1) Is it possible to continue to keep my I-485 application active if I relocate to India and work at the India office of the same company that filed my green card?
2) Is it possible to continue to keep my I-485 application active if I relocate to India and work for a company other than the one that filed my green card?
3) Lets say I move back to India after getting the green card, is it enough to simply enter the US once a year to keep my green card active? Can I apply for citizenship after 5 years of having the green card, even though I haven't resided in the US for those 5 years?
I'd really appreciate it if someone could please answer these questions for me.
Thanks.

Yes, you should have applied in 1999, before the labor and visa backlogs. ;) (I kid - above posters are correct, you *may* have enough time if you can get PERM and I-140 done very quickly, then apply for three year ext.)

I expected Rep. Ed Royce to come hard on Labor Secretary Elaine Chao to improve performance of USCIS, taking your question as a cue. Thats what I would expect from a true leader. Not any circumvoluted responses.
Next time, please ask a specific question which elicits yes/no response like his position on SKIL bill and if he would vote in support of it. No more spin on illegal immigration to not support legal immigration. Then it will show how supportive of he is for immigration.
After 9/11, former INS functions of border security went to Dept. of Homeland Security. USCIS is solely for immigration processing only. This reorganization should have improved performance of USCIS. Instead, we see the more delays, hear more stories, and fudged measurement criteria to show USCIS in good light to the Congress inspite of the poor performance.

I have been a silent follower of IV for more than a year but this is my first post so be kind :)
I am a full time employee. My 140 was approved in Jan 2008 and I am one of those who missed the July'07 fiasco (as you can see from my PD :().
I am being given an opportunity to join another team in my company. I do not want to impact the GC process but do not want to let go of this opportunity.
The other team is ready to replicate my roles and responsibilities as per my PERM and give me a similar title. My company lawyer believes that this would be the best approach and would not hamper my existing PERM and I140 and I would not have to restart my GC process.
I am reaching out to the collective knowledge base of the IV community for their insights/inputs/comments and red flags to watch out for.
Thanks in advance :)

Hei... when you have the opportunity for an earlier PD just take it. Nobody can predict how EB1 PD will be in future. You loose nothing.
A more aggressive approach is to do concurrent filing for EB1-140 and another 485. But I wont do that.
.... Since EB1 is current most of the times......

how convenient, she didnt need to pay or wait for CIR.
Some people are only too powerful and influential that others
Asylum is lot more easier. In fact citizens of Cuba just have to show up in US and they get GC. GC is infact easier for people from China as there is always an option to file for Asylum given the communist govt.
In this case, though Obama said that course of law will follw. But ofcourse USCIS wont
pursue the case agressively and give up ("throw the match") and not go for appeals etc.
