I am posting this from Ron Gotcher's forum-
"Cite as "AILA InfoNet Doc. No. 11040563 (posted Apr. 5, 2011)"
Following-up on his earlier observations on EB-1 demand and "spill-down" to EB-2 reported on InfoNet on March 29, 2011 (InfoNet Doc. No. 11032960), Charlie Oppenheim discussed scenarios for EB-2 movement in the coming months. In preparation of the May 2011 Visa Bulletin, DOS will consider the approximately 12,000 unused EB-1 numbers that will "spill-down" to EB-2, EB-2 demand and possible unused numbers, and will consult with USCIS on its processing potential. A quick look by DOS at this point indicates that there is the possibility for greater advancement of the India EB-2 category than had earlier been thought. Doing so will give DOS better visibility into EB-3 upgrade demand in the pipeline, and will better ensure that all visas allowed annually are used. However, a rapid advance could spur a surge in demand that could impact the cut-off dates later in the year. The May Visa Bulletin, generally issued mid-April, will contain a discussion of visa availability projections for the remainder of the year.

My experience with British Airways back in 2004 was actually quite good. My flight to Delhi was delayed by 12 hours. I approached a BA agent, and he helped me get a 24 hr UK visa to leave the airport, a hotel room at the airport, and meal coupons. I was traveling on Indian passport with a valid unexpired H1B visa stamp (the agent did tell me that he was able to do all this for me since I had an unexpired US visa).
I was in a similar situation in 2003 travelling with Air France, and they refused to extend any help whatsover. I didn't have an unexpired US visa in my passport at that time. I have heard from others who've had good experiences with Air France.
I guess one's experience with an airline completely depends on the prevailing circumstances, the specific service agents, and one's own level of patience and tolerance. Its hard to characterize any one airline as particularly good or particularly bad.
However, having an unexpired US visa in one's passport definitely puts one is a better position to negotiate in difficult circumstances. I guess the prevailing opinion among several of these European transit countries is that if you have a valid unexpired US visa, you are less likely to cause trouble or seek asylum in their country.

Can some one please clarify what this case number is. Do we get the case number when we apply for visa, or this is just the approval notice number.
I am going for my interview on 23rd January to Mumbai. I was just trying to find out whether I can call KCC before leaving US to find out if my approval notice is in the PIMS system or not.
Did you call KCC to check if your approval is in PIMS system?

Hi
I have a question regarding g28 , did u file this form when you did it yourself ..
can an attorney file g28 later on if there is a RFE , who else can file g28
Did not file this form since I prepared all the forms personally. I believe this is only needed if a lawyer files for you.

One idea is to give GC to AOS applicants regardless of namecheck result, if all
other security checks are OK and let the namecheck run in background . If the namecheck turns out critical , cancel the GC & deport the applicant.
But USCIS and lawyers will loose big time , because of reduced demand for APs,EADs etc.

My wife got the approval on Oct 5th...CPO mail was first followed by approval notice and I also got a CPO mail after 35 days of approval....strange and surreal it seems
dwhuser,
I may be wrong since my wife's case was separated.....But this was from my congressman's office who told me that the reason that her case is pending and delayed is because our case got separated during adjudication.

I am in the same situation, and I plan to include photocopy of my courtesy copy of my I-140 with other docs, as I am filing AOS by myself. If anyone else had the same issue, please share your exp.
Sorry to disappoint you guys, but courtesy copy is not sufficient to file I-485. Read your courtesy copy clearly. It categorically states that
"This courtesy copy may not be used in lieu of official notification to demonstrate the filing or processing action taken on this case."
I think it is crystal clear what INS means.
The big question is, what happens if you do file with the courtesy copy of your I-140 instead of the original one. My guess is, if you are lucky, INS may accept your 485 petition initially, and after a few months then may simply send you a RFE asking for the original copy of I-140. And, by that time you may be able to convince your company or company-lawyer to release to you the original copy. And if you are unluncky and the clerk at INS is sharp eyed, he/she may take this as a case of missing initial evidence and blow up your entire 485 application at the on set.
You can take your chances.

Do you think the director just decided to forward the flowers? I am sure he must have called a Monday meeting to counter this. A suggestion during the meeting must have been to forward the flowers to the veterans.
No they had to pass it through the senate first, the house debated on it and the President Veto'd it and as history shows the USCIS took things into their own hands and decided to forward the flowers anyway (with immigrant notes) to the hospital.

I had the same issue...
Here is the short version of how it unfolded. I've seen some quick responses from USCIS.
9/15/2010 - USCIS email indicating that cards mailed for both me and spouse
9/16/2010 - Spouse received card
9/21/2010 - Got email (LUD) that my card returned undelivered.
9/22/2010 - Called customer service updated the address
9/23/2010 - Got my card in mail (wrapped in an usps priority envelope) with tracking number
I was pleasantly surprised with the fastness of USCIS.
Thanks,
Now my status changed to 'Initial Review' because post office returned my mail :confused: Within 12 hrs status changed from 'Card Production' (05.03 PM) to 'Initial Review' (06.33 AM).
I had updated my new address 3 yrs before and was confirmed by infopass appointment.

Bhai logon... mera bhi number aagaya... I got the the approval email and status changed to Decision (for me and my wife).
Best of luck for those waiting...
FYI: I opened SR on Aug 4th... Yesterday I got response that my GC is approved (but the status online was still Initial review) and now today morning my status changed and I got approval email and an SMS too.
Given the above, I seriously think SR works. They must have checked my SR and then approved my GC.

Hi Guys,
Please find the details of how we complaint to our client management regarding L1 violation ....(for some of you guys who are interested in educating uer clients)
Step 1. Collect the email id of uer CEO and 8-10 executive managers, make sure that your groups CIO/CTO s email ids are included, get the email id of HR Head/Legal Dept/Immigration Dept of your client (CC them in the email).
Step 2. Create an anonymous Id with something like "Against Fruad"
Step 3. Formulate the email as given below
Subject: Fradulant Activity by Vendor - CTZ Tech Solutions ...For Eg.:-)
First Paragraph: What the Fraud/Violation Is?:
Mention the L-1B violation by these companies and how these resources are legally prohibited from working on staff augmentation assignments, mention the L1 reform act of 2004, provide the link to USCIS website and attach the .pdf file with L1 reform act. Mention the list of employees at the bottom of the email.
Second Pargaraph: Why They Do This?: Key points .. NO wage restrictions, NO numerical limitation and mention the H1 visa lottery in 2006,07,08 etc. NEVER talk abt corporate greed in this whole email (hope u got why!).
Third Paragraph: How they do this?: Mention about the petition which has to do nothing the current project they work on and the visa interview where these guys tell abt someother projects and clearly mention how they gets deployed to projects where they don't have eligibility to work and skills they cannot be utilized for.
Fourth Paragraph: How to Prevent this: (To show that you are sending this to resolve an issue and not to complicate one) ... mention about how easily each hiring manager can avoid this by setting visa criterion for all jobs including contract and temporary jobs.. once criterion is set by hiring managers these vendors cannot violate the same. For Eg. Hiring managers set the criterion that a new contract position can only be filled by Citizens/Green Cards/EAD/H1 s... so L1 violation doesnt even come into picture.
Last Paragraph (BUT NOT LEAST)
Mention the NAME of atleast 5 resources (and their organisation) working on L1, their projects, technology on which they work and how they violate L1 by working on these projects and technologies.
BELIEVE ME ... WE WERE PARTIALLY SUCCESSFULL ... NO MORE NEW ONSITE CONSULTANTS FROM THIS VENDOR ... but client is not yet ready to review the existing consultants.. looks like they are having a internal probe into the matter...hope we'll get some good news regarding the same too.

Can someone explain why it seems harder to find backers in the house than in the senate for immigration reform (even the employment based legal immigration)? If we understand this, maybe it will help us focus our lobbying efforts better. Just a thought.
arihant,
The constituency of a Senator is the entire state while that of a House Rep is usually much, much smaller. So the Senator needs to make sure that all his actions are more 'Inclusive' and do not offend a lot of people.
But since the House Rep has much fewer and probably much more homogeneous set of people, the needs of his/her constituents are not that diverse and hence they can afford to take a hardline stance in many cases.

Can anybody tell me what do i need to put on I-765 , Q11, as i am not able to rely on my company's attorney.
11.Have you ever applied for employment authorization from USCIS?
As per the following link - http://www.uga.edu/oie/ISSIS/form/Department/PR/Instructions%20for%20I-765.pdf
it says that you need to put yes and have to attach all the previous 797's.
But my attorney says that you need to put No. Only those who applied for EAD earlier have to put yes (Which i feel not correct).
can anybody clarify please.
Thanks in Advance.
=====================
contribution so far 100$
If you have never applied for an EAD card before then the answer is NO. If you have had an EAD before then the answer is YES. Pretty straightforward really. Your work visa is not an employment authorization in this context.
