I had my FP done yesterday (Sep 27). My notice date is Aug 28th on 485 and I received FP notice in the first week of september.
I think you should call them immediately as you should have not only gotten you FP notice by now but also got your FP done.
Hello Guys,
Does any one here has Newark NJ as their ASC? Reason is my notice date is august 27th from TSC and I haven't received my FP notice yet. My wife has the similar issue as well. I've called USCIS atleast twice but they are not ready to open service request and are saying that the ASC must be busy.
I wanted to find out if any one of you here has notice date after august 27th and have already got FP notice from Newark (NJ) ASC.
Thanks.

No politician can understand the pain of long waiting and unknown state of our immigration status in this EB backlog mess ..they are just worried about their vote bank.....We should not surprise if USCIS don't move dates in June or July VB 2011...Instead of waiting for VBs, we have to do somethings to gain support of GC holders and US citizens of our national origin. All of them need to write letters to support our cause through public campaign with the help of human rights organizations. Also, I would think Indian and Chinese business tycoons like Patel brothers need to lobby for our cause to explore their business opportunities for them from our community. We got to do something massive to continuously highlight in mainstream media.
Please be polite if you have any better idea to share with us..
EB2I and EB3 I should wait till Jul Bulletin.

my advice to you is try to do it in person. i did it a few months ago in houston. i know a lot of people are not lucky enough to be close to a consulate. but when you apply in person, and you say that you will pick up your passport in person, then you take most of the problems away involving postal delivery and receipt of the passport.
so even if it may hurt to drive for a few hours, it may be well worth the drive. afterall passport with a visa stamp is probably the most important document you will ever have in your possession while you are on H1-B.
the way it works in houston is - you submit all the paperwork etc. during morning hours. they will tell you to come and pick up your passport after 3-4 weeks. you go there say a couple of days after they told you to come, pick up your passport...go home...effortless.:cool:
Washington DC is same day if you drop and collect in person ..last year i renewed the same

There is no need for you to have an actual copy of the I-140. I am assuming that you want to have the documents to prevent the current employer doing any 'harm' - intentional or otherwise to your case.
AC21 states that as long as the 140 has been certified, the current employer cannot do any thing if the employee leaves.
I am NOT sure about this next point, but even if the 140 is revoked by the employer the LC and PD stay valid.
Make sure you have the receipt #s, and check the status on the USCIS website. Once 140 is certified, you are golden.
Hope this helps.

Hi Omved,
You need one of the two documents (H1B stamp in passport or valid AP) to return to the US - that is simple. I agree with you that planning travel in anticipation of AP renewal is very dicey.
Your best bet would be to get your H1B stamp at a US Consulate (in India or Canada). My personal experience has been great at the US Consulate in Vancouver (but as you must know by now, there are no guarantees when it comes to immigration matters). The first step, of course, is to look for appointments in these consulates. No matter where, the process is lengthy but not impossible.
Not to scare you, but a colleague's application for H1B stamp got "picked" for extensive security check the last time he was in India (applied at the US Consulate in Delhi).
BTW, the law requires you to be in the US only when the AP (renewal or otherwise) is filed; not till you receive it in hand. So if you make all necessary arrangements for your H1B stamp, you can leave after the I-131 is filed.

you need to get paid all the time. Even during maternity leave. Not getting paid is voilation of status and violation of employer-employee relationship.
In OPs case, one can maintain the status without getting paid - they just need to prove there is an employer-employee relationship exists. You are correct, if the employer simply dumped you on bench

This is a small idea and let us see if it works.
We all help each other on the forum by answering questions. Let us answer questions of members of our community and politely request the person asking the question, if your answer helped him. If it helped him, the member can consider contributing to Immigrationvoice.
I think if all active members add this small note in their signatures, it may help us generate more funds to continue this effort. You can choose to modify this message to make it more appealing or create a link to the high five campaign that is currently running.

1. No need to apply extn with the new employer, when you file for H1-Transfer you get 3 year extenstion
2. You need to apply for new PERM through new employer, as you do not have a pending i-485. In my case I have an EB2 Perm with proiority date of Feb 2008. New company filed for PERM in 2011 and is pending. Once they file for I-140, they will port the priority date from the old PERM. Attorney never told me any thing about job description or any issue as you can even port the priority date from EB3. So i think that does not apply. You will need your I-140 and PERM copies from the current employer while doing the transfer and porting the priority dates.

My documents will reach attorney on Monday and he promised to file before July4.
Good lawyer...mine is taking 6-7 business days after submission atleast. Though, I did not fill any forms, I filled a questionairre and she will use that to fill the forms, that might delay things a little.

485 fess from Jul 30th will be 1010USD. This also has EAD & AP fees built into it and you can keep on renewing EAD & AP with out paying fees every year unil you get your GC.
The first-time EAD/AP will definitely be free. But I could not find any explicit language indicating that renewals will be free. Here is the relevant section from the federal register notice:
Form I-485. For filing an application for permanent resident status
or creation of a record of lawful permanent residence--$930 for an
applicant fourteen years of age or older; $600 for an applicant under
the age of fourteen years when submitted concurrently for adjudication
with the Form I-485 of a parent and the applicant is seeking to adjust
status as a derivative of the parent, based on a relationship to the
same individual who provides the basis for the parent's adjustment of
status, or under the same legal authority as the parent; no fee for an
applicant filing as a refugee under section 209(a) of the Act; provided
that no additional fee will be charged for a request for travel
document (advance parole) or employment authorization filed by an
applicant who has paid the Form I-485 application fee, regardless of
whether the Form I-131 or Form I-765 is required to be filed by such
applicant to receive these benefits.
At best, this is ambiguous as to whether a fee will be required on renewals.

How does one go about canceling the pending EB2-NIW i-485 (possibly get the money back... will be glad to donate it all to IV :D:D)
I went thru all the arguments and counter arguments that this guy made. Some made sense others did not but the post attached below shows he is a piece of thrash full of vanity and arrogance. Just for yur info Mr. gctest getting into a second tier university in India and framing yur SOP with some thrash and sentiments will easily fetch yu a place in yur so called tier one UNiversities in US. I am sure you opted to do that as you were not able to get into any of the tier one B-schools or other similar place of higher learning in India because you did not have the grey matter in your head. Moreover students from those places come to US directly recruited by the companies in US (that too after paying a hefty placement fees per recruit and on a dual intent H1B visa) but unfortunately they too are in EB2 category............I am really happy that you got your GC and can merrily gloat about your academic proficiency and IQ level of "180" (but commonsense...) with much more freedom.

Nobody asked me if I have immigration intent... they saw that i had I-20 from Cornell, MIT & UMBC and simply asked "Why cornell?". And before i could say anything she smiled and said "welcome to united states"... hah..suck on that
i bet that "jangli maharaj university" you got your diploma from is making your entire family very proud

Unless we make complain and noise about delay in NSC, it may not come to the authorities notice.
The following steps can be taken:

(2) Let us write to CIS Ombudsman
(3) Emilio.T.Gonzalez had posted his comments in USCIS portal, where the customers of CIS is allowed to add their comments. We can use this forum to high light the problems faced in NSC.

Hi, I had a similar case and I could port it. My case was
EB3 -> 06/2004
EB2 -> 08/2006
(Same employer, Texas center)
Last year in August when EB2 PD for 2004 was current my attorney sent a letter to USCIS. She mentioned that we can only send the letter when EB2--6/2004 is current. I inquired about the letter with USCIS few times but to no avail. This year when the PD becomes current I opened an SR on Aug-18th,2009 and the case got approved on Sept-1st.
I have an approved EB3 I140 ( PD 10/2002 ) and an approved EB2 I140 ( PD 04/2007 ) but my attorney has been having trouble getting the EB33 priority date on to EB2. My EB3 petition is with Texas Service Center. Both of my petitions are from same employer.
Has anyone had any success with Texas Service Center for this kind of request recently?

My suggestion is don't ask for a referral for a good consulting company.
If two consultants are working through a consultancy, their own opinion might differ drastically about the same company. These desi consultancies treat everybody differently.
They do not have set standards. Even if they have some on papers, I have seen none so far who follows those.
They say we will give you 90% of your share. They meet you with smiling face and they talk very politely. And when you ask the Work Order to confirm your rate, they very conveniently change the figure and fax it over to you. This is not an assumption, I have seen it happening before my eyes.
And most of all, they do not feel any remorse or guilt at all.
So, please look for your own. Be careful. Avoid the ones who smile constantly even while chewing the biggest burger on their plate. :-)
Find an American company. They know their state laws and are afraid to commit anything against those.
Good luck, my friend!
Guys, Suggest me a good consulting company. My employer is OK until now and he just started demanding money even for H1 extensions. I am seriously thinking of moving. Please suggest good desi consulting companies who can support my GC and keep min billing. I have a very good project in hand
