The views expressed in the context of sending grammatically correct letters is appreciated. As such, it would make sense if we can send the same letter, which would not only emphasize the same point but would be grammatically correct as well :)
Sending poorly drafted letters may not speak well of our community please

As mentioned in my earlier post, address on my husband's I-485 was changed by USCIS system wrongly to attorney's address. We were wondering whether the documents went to old address or attorney and thank god our attorney has received it today and we will get it tomorrow. As for me and my son, still waiting...

I-140 is for future job, and the petition says that the original employer has *intent* to hire the petitioner on FT/"perm" job. Now, let's say the original employer withdraws the petition after 180 days of filing I-485 and approved I-140 and lets you go. That's where AC21 comes to rescue, and you can become "self-employed" rather than "unemployed." Question is, why can't self-employment in same/similar occupation as your I-140 petition be considered to satisfy I-140 requirement? (Fortunately, yes it can be, per Yates memo.) Another situation: If you continue working with the same employer on H-1B until you get your GC, and leave him the next day of getting GC, and then plan to take a long holiday (not working). Would your GC be canceled because you don't have a FT/"perm" job?
I-140 is for future GC and hence, must be full time and permanent.
I-140 is not for current H-1B job.
You are mixing two things.

record conversatios with these jack ass employers. It is surprising how much crap and illegal things they tell and do during negotiations. Not sure about the legality, would not harm if you dont use it. We keep seeing news on people getting screwed and then when outed the victim is not usually screwed by the system again.
Also, I wonder if any employment contract not tied to any reasonable time estimate( like 485 - who knows when we will get it) will hold.Its akin to slavery.

They are not personal checks. So there is no way for me to find if the checks were cashed or not. But attorney said, it takes minimum two weeks. But it looks like many have gotten their receipts.
Are you checks cashed?

We are all missing a point here.
Someone with a PD of 2006 who filed his/her AOS in 2006 should be far ahead in processing compared to someone with a PD of 2001(or who has been in the country for the last 20 years) but applied just a week ago.
Should USCIS hold the first case and wait for the other case to reach that stage? They can certainly do that if we don't blame them for wasting visa numbers every year.
It's not as simple as it sounds --Give GC to those old timers before the new comers!
Having said that, It certainly makes more sense to have some system which would atleast honestly attempt to be fair to the old timers.
BTW, I'm an old timer myself, 7th year in the country and a PD of 2003.
I would rather have them approve ANY case instead of wasting a single visa number.
If you mean what you were saying, then per me, approving pending CP cases (which are already at the consulate just awaiting VISA numbers) atleast the last few days of September (of every year) -if there are NO ELIGIBLE 485 cases would be the best way to utilize every single VISA number.
485 cases may be waiting for several reasons - case not processed yet, name check, RFE, FP etc. But cases in CP wait for just one reason - no VISA number - but still VISA numbers are wasted by the end of every year. Why CP cases do not get VISA numbers? because PD is not current. They are ready to waste VISA numbers instead!

EAD applied on Jun11th approved at TSC. Received cards yesterday.
To my surprise my EAD is valid for 2 years.
My PD is Nov 2004 EB2
I140 pending at TSC.
I thought 2 year EAD is only for cases that had approved 140. Is it not the case?

Guys:
For all those who are waiting...I would suggest one more thing, if your file is not touched. My lawyer had sent an email to NSC on Aug 2. I believe that along with my SR might have done the trick.....Sheela Murthy was my lawyer....that too might have helped....Who know what works....but we can all try.....Hope all who are stuck, get their GC by end of this month.
Take Care
Yes...A thorough lawyer does this. I am very happy with my lawyer too. She was diligent and thorough...She sent a letter to TSC on the day our cases became current. She also attaches copies of CIS Memos (if applicable) when filing for extensions, reinstatements, etc. so that the IO does not raise RFEs indiscriminately...Once we got our GCs, she sent a long letter regarding Dos and Don'ts after getting Cards

I think IV needs to hire a good immigration attorney. May be IV can start a new funding drive to see, if members are really interested this hiring an attorney. The same attorney also can help us by answering our questions.

I take frequent trips to India and all of them are extremely satisfying, and many times the thought has crossed my mind about the possiblity of moving back but it will take some time for changes to happen for the good and that is because i think,
We, Indians have a basic mental flaw wherein we shy away from unpleasant confrontation regardless of the merits of our case or the adverse consequences that such inertia engenders. The net result is that we are unable to translate our moral convictions into practical reality allowing law abiding citizens to be held hostage to the tantrums of a belligerent and corrupt minority, who call the shots in most places, right from the bottom to the top , in any sphere or area...(rather than talent and merit that should call the shots )

Asking help from Senator Sessions for your G-card is like asking help from Bil Ladan to wipe out islamic terrorism. I w'd be extremely curious to read his reponse if you get one at all.
If you think it is that ridiculuous, then you should tell the core members that. They did ask us to call him on the last day of LD. There is nothing wrong in writing to him. In fact, you are making a comparison that is not correct.

Thanks for bringing this up. In the byzantine world of USCIS regs this probably got lost somewhere?
But i agree with the post above .. we are really stuck between a rock anda hard place on this issue..If we ask them to move all spouse visa numbers to Family , which is how it should be based on the legislations you are quoting, then our partners will have to wait for more number of years than EB categories. It does not matter that EB3 is now U. my feeling is in the long run EB is a better category than FB....
Also it could present more issue for all those aged out folks who are at least in EB where the gravy train seems to be inching unlike the FB train... And we don't even need to scenario plan the FB if all our spouse appln goes in to taht bucket.. But there is an advantage.. the primary applicant could get their GC cards faster (I am assuming) and this probably may be truer (if there is anything like that) for India and China, where usually the EB applicantion includes spouse/child visa reequest as well..
Very hard to choose.. Also what happens if the primary applicant gets the GC, but the spouse cannot.. On waht visa he/she will continue? May be that is the reason why they assumed all spouse visa application as EB?

My lawyers sent all their applications to NSC, irrespective of where I 140 was processed. In reality i dont think there was any directive from USCIS askingthem not to do so.
Anyway.. my application was also received by M Schweitzer on Augs 1st 9am.
my I140 was cleared in Texas. So far nothing.
Its good to hear July 31st people getting updates.. gives me reason to cheer!!
A
Yeah, there was no directive from USCIS where to correctly send the application. As a matter of fact, USCIS said that we can send it in any of the four Service Center and it wouldn't be rejected. This is good for us in a way because it lessen the risk of rejection but also bad because it causes delays as USCIS have to transfer some application from one Service Center to another.
Hopefully, your Receipts will come soon.
