There should be tighter provisions against multiple applications [via multiple employers]. it prone to abuse - as a way to increase chances of lottery [as it happened this yr].
There is no real justification in multiple applications - though one might argue otherwise. In the end, the candidate has to work for only one employer.
Interesting stats would be how many mulitple employers applications were filed per candidate, not sure if uscis publishes them!

I would think Cross-Charegeability is automatic. I mean if one spouse is birth country India/China and one is ROW, I would think cross charegeability is automatic but then again not a 100% sure.
Oh no - Its not automatic. You would think there would be a better way than write on cover sheet in BOLD but even though its in their own law, it is not easy to get it applied (especially with TSC).

It's like a scam. I wonder how could labor substitution live for so long. My labor was filed in sep'2003 and I'm still waiting. My next door was planning to go back to his country and had never applied for Green card, but 6 months ago, when he had 2-3 months left for his 6th year, he got a labor and he filed I-140 & I-485 together. Now he and his wife works on EAD & I'm still waiting for my labor. What kind of @#@$@# is this ? And who know before my attorney receives my labor cert. it'll allready be 45 days and I will have to pack my bags. that'll be @#$@#$!!!!

I believe the intention of not moving too much beyond jul 06 , may be to make some spill over benfit happen to EB3 also. If they open the gate for EB2 now, lots of 485 application may come in and there may not be spill over to EB3. :)

See how bad EB3 I shape is...
7,100 until 2002 Dec. That means, 2.5+ years before it hits Jan 1, 2003.
What about the people with PD > 2005. 33,400 / 2800 per year. 11+ years. :)
Retire!

GreenTech, that's a good question. I am considering to transfer to offices in Asia or Europe next year and then attend B-school in the US after 2 years. That way, once I graduate, I will also at least have the option to get another 6-year H1 in the US.
thepaew, thanks for the advice. I have been thinking about this for a while, and my options are:
1) Start the GC process now and wait until I get the GC. Then think about B-school after I get the GC (I am not interested in part-time programs).
2) Forget the GC process and transfer to Europe or Asia next year and then attend B-school in the US after a few years.
Personally for me, having an MBA in 5 years is more valuable than having a GC in 5 years, so I am leaning towards option 2 above. However, if I don't get into B-school, then that's another story... I would probably transfer back to the US on L1 and start the GC process. At that point, I would apply under EB2 anyway with my Bachelor's and 5+ years experience.
Thanks again everyone for the replies and advice. And yes, of course you are not lawyers, but your help is still very useful. During my H1 renewal process, I got more useful info from here than from my company's lawyer!

I have copies of all my I-20's and H1B's with me but I never kept copies of I 94 cards. Now if they start asking for all such documents its going to be very difficult. What happens if you are missing an old I20 can you ask school to go thro their records and issue a duplicate. To be honest from 2003 onwards everything is online via SEVIS so they should not even ask us for paper documents. Same with H1 with this new system they have started from this year.
I'm guessing they would need only the latest I-94 copy since we turn in every I-94 at the time of departure from the country. I could be wrong, someone can comment. I have never kept all the I-94's, hope it is not needed.

Hi Dingudi,
The problem is not the hours I worked as I've always worked legally and within the laws of the University and visa status.
The problem is proving that I filed my taxes, which I did but I can't produce evidence and neither can the IRS.
I understand your problem. All I was saying is to make sure any response you provide includes that your work during 1999-2000 was legal as per F1 on-campus regulations. And I hope the attorney you hire should be able to do that. If you do not have Tax returns , then you don't. Like someone said earlier , your W2 along with IRS letter that they do not keep records older than 7 years maybe enough but again your attorney should make this decision wisely.

Some questions before I answer.
1) Did you get married in a church or did you reserve a church for marriage?
2) If you are not married how do you start immigration paper work?
If you want to start paperwork, you need to get married.If you have to get married, you need to get married before March 31.If you have to get married before March 31, you need to get your marriage license before that.If you already got married why do you need license?If you are talking about marriage certificate for applying immigration, you can apply it on line.If he goes to jail on March 31st then ask him to apply for parol to come out.
well i got marriage ceremony , not civil yet...because i didn't know since he have this problem in court. and he says that they would let him out once he's in jail.. the chance of he goes to jail is 50 50... if goes he will get about 18 months. will still can do my papers?

Help!
Took TST last week, positive (16mm), X-ray negative, civil surgeon marked "Class B, Latent TB Infection" on I-693, and gave me a notes saying that since May 2008, TST>10 will be marked with LTBI, and advised me to go to Health Department.
Same as many of you guys, had taken vaccines when young. Have been in US for 11 years. Pretty sure I don't have TB. What should I do? Does LTBI affect 485 approval? How about AP/EAD? Will USCIS ask for evidence of TB treatment?
Thank you very much!
We just got our medical envelope for me and my wife from the doctor, we both had TST reaction of 10mm and 18mm, chest x-ray came out normal...doctor marked both of us Latent Class TB(LTB1)...i would not worry about this, Latent TB is not infectous and recommended(not required) to undergo treatment. I am going to sit tight, not taking any medication as i heard the medication is a strong antibiotic which has more side effects(esp in women) and does more damage(to liver) than cure. If on medication, you are also required to take a test every 2 months to check if your liver can take medications for following months. Ofcourse, even after taking medication for 9 months, you cannot guarantee future TST test will result -ve due to BCG vaccine history.
If i get an RFE at a later time, i will goto my PCP, start medication(which i will discard) and get a letter saying in am on medication just for paper work sake, i refuse to take the medicine when x-ray is clear.
Read here:
http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dq/civil_tb_ti_2008.htm
Here is the snippet from CDC.gov for TB:
16. What is Class B�Latent TB Infection Needing Evaluation for Treatment (LTBI)?
A TST reaction of 10 mm or more of induration, and a history of recent arrival (within the last 5 years) in the United States from a high-prevalence country.
And
No evidence of active TB disease.
17. Should Part 3 of Form I-693 be completed when the civil surgeon is referring the applicant for evaluation for treatment of Latent TB Infection (LTBI)?
The 2008 TB TIs recommend that civil surgeons refer applicants with �Class B�Latent TB Infection Needing Evaluation for Treatment (LTBI)� to the TB Control Program of the local health department. The referral for evaluation for treatment of LTBI is recommended, not required. Part 3 of Form I-693 should be used only for required referrals, therefore the civil surgeon should not complete Part 3 of Form I-693 when making this referral. It follows that the health department is not required to complete Part 4 of Form I-693 after evaluation for treatment of LTBI is completed or after treatment for LTBI is completed. Please see question 18 for related information.
21. Can the civil surgeon medically clear the applicant for TB even if the applicant is going to receive treatment for latent TB Infection (LTBI)?
Yes. Referral for treatment and/or completion of treatment for LTBI is not required for the civil surgeon to sign the I-693 form. As regards TB, the signature indicates the applicant is free of Class A pulmonary TB disease.
Disclaimer: I am not a doctor or an attorney, Please consult doctor or an attorney for expert advice.

Now back to my questions... I realize I am in good shape with things in place but will I need the receipt notice when applying for AP/ EAD renewal? My lawyer had asked me to send them money orders for the filing so I don't have any confirmation of the payments but can always print out the application status online. let me know.

Please refrain from saying such a thing for President.
He might have made mistakes but he has been a tough one for terrorists.Since Sep11,2001,he has kept the ppl safe.
6 years is a big time.
If he is trying something beneficial for Immigrants,lets support him and ask him to support our cause.
I think we should send faxes/emails to him to show our support and I am sure he will get our amendment passed.
Lets give this a try.I am sure he will make no more mistakes as these are some last things which can give a lot of credibility back to his Presidentship.
alright MR junior bush

About a week back (see my first post in this thread), I said if FAIR lobbyist Brian Bilbray wins the special election in Calif. it will galvanize the anti-immigration sources. This really was a bellweather election and the folks in the 50th district made their choice: a restrictionist lobbyist over a liberal non-lobbyist who favored the Senate immig plan. Whatever the dynamics of the race or the constituency, this is what it boils down to.
http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/06/07/midterm.california/index.html
Plus, now Tancredo adds another House member to his immigration "reform" (read Restrictionist) caucus, making the Comprhensive Reform even more difficult to achieve this year.
http://tancredo.house.gov/press/PRArticle.aspx?NewsID=1200
Well, sure enough, you saw Dobbs touting Bilbray today. All the Restrictionist media also made a big deal out of this (Fox, Wash Times, etc). Rep Duncan Hunter, another house restrictionist, also hardened his position on a compromise, saying it reflected the position of the House Leadership. Soemtimes I think this is a deliberate attempt on part of the Republican Party to mobilize their core voters- Repub House candidates who show they can oppose their President on Immigration will be rewarded with votes from the republican base. This is how Repubs will use immigration as a wedge issue this year, mobilize their base, and try to retain control of the house when almost every other issue (Iraq war, ethics, deficits) is against them. Bush will probably continue to promote immig compromise till the July 2 election in Mexico, and let it go after a Calderon win. Meanwhile, the conference committtee will be appointed, but there will be no compromise this year as House Repubs use this as a wedge issue to get their voters out.
What this means for us is that IV should now start looking for an alternative legislative vehicle for Immigration Relief (which they probably are already). I know nothing can be moved until CIR officially dies, but we should do the groundwork on future efforts so no time is wasted when CIR does die in late july. I wish I am proven wrong, but I suspect there is a less than 5% chance of passing an Immigration Bll similar to the Senate version this year. I'm not usually downbeat, but frankly this is what I see happening.

July 07 485 filer with pd of July 2003 in EB3.
EAD and AP available and can be used for AC21.
Current H1 valid till 2010 July
Got married after filing 485 and so wife does not have EAD etc and is on H4.
Another company wants me to come to their company using EAD as they dont want to file h1. Can I use EAD under AC21 and switch jobs while my wife is still on H4 ?
Is the EAD/AOS status change applicable only when going in and out of the country ? If we decide to stay in the USA till we get a GC, does it matter if I use EAD to change jobs though my wife is on H4 ?
