Be fast u only got a month ....
Get in touch with a good attorney, call shusterman.com and get an hour of consultation charges for u.
Tell him the situation, give him the two options. He will point you in the right direction. Remember July is the only month you have a chance. August and retrogress can kick in for Indians.
Let me add one more option to the above 2. Talk to your employers thru whom you got the approved I-140 and ask them to allow you file the I-485 since GC is for future employment u don't have to be working for them for filing I-485 now once 6 months are over with the 485 filed you can port it to ur current employer. Email me if u have questions dr_irshad2001@yahoo.com
Good luck & hurry ...

Friends, can someone help answer a few questions for considering filed I-485 and adding spouse at the later. I am planning to get married in the January or february time frame in India. I have read at several places that one can add spouse anytime BEFORE 485 APPROVAL. I work on H1B, I am from India and my priority date is Oct 06 with approved EAD and I 485 pending. I have some specific questions in case my priority date becomes current. My question is -
1. Can I travel and enter on my H1 even if my AP is approved/pending?
2. Is it safer to travel on AP even if I have a valid/invalid H1 stamped on my passport?
3. Can my wife enter on H4 and then we add her name to 485 when she is in US?
Thanks for any/all additional help you can provide with my scenario. I can be flexible if someone has any suggestions that can help my case.
Of course I will be taking my lawyer's advice and use your suggestions to enchance my knowledge and present some scenarios to the lawyer.
Thanks for all your help!!

If you can do that. Go for it. YOu will get your GC in 6 mths after coming here on L1.
Hi All,
I have been following the postings on this forum. I appreciate all the hard work the core group is doing. I also appreciate the active participation by all members in answering/discussing the forum topics.
I have contributed a one time $200.00 in support and would contribute more and request every one to support in there capacity.
Every one needs PR status, but in my case, the need is more for my wife, because of the reason that she wants to pursue her medical residency here.
I sometimes wonder and sometimes I feel like going back to India, work for my present company for 1 year, come back here on a managerial/executive position on L1 along with my wife and apply for Perm in Eb1 cat...this said is all my thought!
This would enable my wife to get work permit as L1 dependent and an eventually a residency position in a good univ and a current 1-485 status.
Only thing though is my wife would need to attend interviews.
Any suggestions/feedback will help me and all other people in this situation.
Thank You,
The 116

Guys,
Your help/guidance is needed on this strange situation.
I am still in India and I have got my H1B1 approved thru one employer. I am waiting on few documents from my employer who is in US. I am still waiting for these documents so that I can go for Visa stamping.
Apparantly, this employer is causing some issues in giving me all my supporting documents.
My question: can I find some other employer and transfer my H1B1 and then go for stamping thru this new employer?
You experience, knowledge will be appreciated.
Thanks,
pan123
Of ourse you can always find a new employer!
However, I hear people talking about it all the time, there is no such thing as a transfer as if you could port your visa to a new company.
Whenever you want to switch jobs, you have to apply for a whole new H1.
Having one already does not make things faster or easier, except when you are already in the US. In this case, you can switch jobs as soon as you file the new H1, you don't have to wait for approval. However, there is a big risk:
what if the new H1 is denied? You already quit your previous employer and cannot work for the new one anymore...Then you are in big trouble.
In your situation, just file a new H1 with a new employer, that's it.

Some of you here know the immigration law much better than I do and I just have a quick question on the "ability to file 485" issue. When congress passes a law, not every little detail is spelled out and it's left up to the related government agency/department to implement/interpret the law and spell out every single implementation detail. Having said that, is the "Ability to file 485 only when PD is current" actually spelled out in the law or is it something how USCIS decided to implement the law? If the later is true, shouldn�t we try to convince USCIS to let everyone file I-485 regardless of the PD. I mean it�s a win-win situation. USCIS gets more revenue because you now have to renew your EAD every year and most of us will be very happy because we can make career/employer changes as necessary.
The reason I ask is because it makes a lot of difference for lot of folks in terms of their own career advancement as well as spouse�s career.

I have 2 approved I-140s from same company with which I am currently working. One PD is end 2004 and another is end 2005.
My I-485 was filed last July with PD end 2004 (I-140 was approved way back in 2006).
Recently, an ombudsman inquiry revealed my PD to be end 2005 and not end 2004. The 140 with PD end 2005 was never used to file 485.
Anybody with similar experience?
How do I get this corrected?

Hi SertTurk,
Its not clear from your post as to which state your/spouse's application is in. There are three phases
#1 Labor certification ( state and Federal )
#2 I-140
#3 I485 ( adjustment of status )
In order to get GC card, you need to complete all 3 phase. The VISA number applies to third/last state ( I485) only. If employee quits job during any of 3 phase, there is a very good chance he/she may not get GC through this employer. The process itself doesn't get terminated, as GC is for future job, but there is every chance the employer would either use the approved labor for another employee or not answer any rfe/query. If phase I and phase II is complete and you have filed for phase 3 and 6 months have passed, you have option to invoke AC21 and join another employer on same/similar position.
Please talk to an attorney before making any decision.

If your wife is on H4 she has no income hence she qualifies for free medicaid insurance. provided you fill out the forms the right way.
And there is a seperate Health insurance sponsored by government for kids below 18 years. based on your wife's Medicaid, your child can qualify for that insurance in your state.
You might need to buy insurance for you.

Can you clarify, is there any basis for this gloomy prediction ? I mean , how many people are in Line from Nov. 2001 and how many visa numbers are available every year for EB-3 (I). Let us hope for better, than your prediction.
Thanks.
1 year from now, only EB3-Indians with PDs of 2001-2006 will hang on the IV website. Everybody else(or atleast 99%) will be gone...

Hello Guys,
I was wondering if any one of you have any estimated time for FP notice from TSC?
My 485 ND is August 27 from TSC (case originally filed at NSC on July 2nd which later got transferred to TSC) but haven't received any FP notice yet. Is TSC slower in issuing FP notice?
Also, I believe that it may depend upon the ASC office situation as well. I am from NJ so may be Newark ASC must be "overbooked" now for FP.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Is not weired funny dicriminatvie while 2003/2004 already gor GC while April2001 are waiting for approval.
You do not think there should be once a year declaration for clared date upto so n so not a single file is pending.
Why April2001 has to wait for 8(eight!) years
I feel your pain. Here is my advice. Talk to your local Senator. I have been in contact with my local senator since Nov 2008. Finally, i got my I485 approved on 10th Feb, yet to receive cards though.
My senator, the longest serving in the senate history, contacted at least 3 times with USCIS, as recent as Jan 28th. So just take their help, dont even hesitate.

Any response?
This is what the FAQ says
"Q5: Where should employment-based adjustment applications be filed?
A5. Forms I-485 may be filed at either the Nebraska Service Center or the Texas Service Center in accordance with the Direct Filing Update issued June 21, 2007."
Though it says Nebraska Service Center or the Texas Service Center there is also an additional clause "Nebraska Service Center or the Texas Service Center in accordance with the Direct Filing Update issued June 21, 2007". ANd according to that update CA residents should file at Nebraska.
This is what is confusing me.

On reading a bit about PIMS, it seems that if your information is not in the KCC, then the US consulate sends a request to Kentucky for information. It turns out KCC has access to the CLAIMS3 system used by the USCIS, and they generally respond in 48 hrs. Here is the link:
http://srwlawyers.com/Resources/ImmigrationNews/tabid/91/Default.aspx
Scroll down to Dec 12.
They claim 48 hrs but on an average it is taking about 2 weeks to hear back from KCC. There are couple of parallel threads going on reg that.
