Yes, my paper receipt shows June 29th as date of receipt. But the online status shows a later date which I believe is the date it was transfered from NSC to TSC. So I guess it is normal.
Folks,
The online status shows a different date than the receipt date my lawyer is telling me. I am july filer......the lawyer telling me july date and online shows sept date.......
Is this normal?
Thank You

Hi! I hope this is the right place to post this. If not, can you please tell me where it should be posted?
We are caught in a terrible comedy of errors, but unfortunately it is not funny all.
My husband is from Turkey, and was/is here on an F-1 visa. To make a long story short, we filed our I-485 & I-130 applications shortly after we were married. Months after this, deportation proceedings were (wrongfully) initiated against my husband.
While we were waiting for our court date to have the deportation proceedings terminated, USCIS at the NBC denied my husband's I-485 for the sole reason that there were deportation proceedings against him.
The deportation proceedings were terminated with a note on the paperwork from the judge that the charges were wrongfully initiated. The judge asked the Federal attorney to ask CIS to help us in NY, but NY office advised they can't do anything since this decision was made in Missouri.
At this point, my husband has not been able to work (work document denied also, of course), the government has cost us $1,000s of $$ in attorneys, and we do not have money to pay them their almost $1,000 to start the I-485 process over again. We need our original case reopened and approved.
Oh, and before deportation proceedings were terminated, but after the I-485 was denied, we passed a Stokes Interview which was requested through my I-130 due to the deportation proceedings. My I-130 has been approved.
We have filed an I-230-B for appeal, but without the fee. So we have no receipt letter nor case #. We have been told by our lawyer that we need to get the help our our U.S. Representative, Anthony Wiener. However, a friend of mine, who helps immigrants in another state, told me we need to work through our senator, Chuck Schumer's office.
Is there any advice on working through a representative's or a senator's office to re-open/ investigate a case.... which is more effective, faster, etc?
Is there anything else we can do on our own or have our attorney do?
Right now, I'm fed up with our lawyer, and do not feel we are getting enough information from him, or perhaps he is not qualified to answer my questions; so I am seeking other advice.
Any advice is welcome.
Thank you!!
Smile and have a wonderful day!

Regarding "how soon can you go for stamping"
Depends on the consulate. Mumbai consulate allows you to go for stamping 90 days prior to start of your extension. In your case if your extension starts on 1st October 2010, you can go for stamping as early as 5th July 2010. Since you are expecting to receive the extension by August you can go for stamping as soon as you receive it.
I would recommend dropping a mail to VFS and asking this question for the consulate you are interested in.

I would suggest you ask your employer B to file thru premium processing. Just to be on the safe side
cancellation takes atleast a month if not more. (4-5 months is not a confirmed number so its better to assume the worse case of 1 month)
cheers

Thank you for the advice nat23. I will talk to my lawyer about this.

Please do not go for stamping if it can be avoided, as embassies are very frequently giving form 221(g) for additional administrative processing which may take few weeks to several months.

In year 1999, AnnaLee Saxenian of Public Policy Institute of California did a study on immigrant engineers and scientists in Silicon Valley and the effect they had on California's economy. She contended that foreign-born engineers in Silicon Valley�s technology industry made a substantial and growing
contribution to regional job and wealth creation.
Here is the full report on that study:
http://www.ppic.org/content/pubs/report/R_699ASR.pdf
Today, a new study titled "Silicon Valley's New Immigrant Entrepreneurs", by researchers in the master of engineering management programme at the Pratt School of Engineering at the Duke University was released.
The study covered 28,766 firms with annual sales of more than USD 1 million and 20 or more employees. The lead researcher Vivek Wadhwa, contends that "this study shows the tremendous contribution immigrants in general and Indians in particular are making to the US economy and global competitiveness. This is a win-win for America and for the immigrants that make it here."
Here is the full report on the latest study:
http://memp.pratt.duke.edu/downloads/americas_new_immigrant_entrepreneurs.pdf
Both the above reports go towards re-inforcing our arguments. Core members may want to retain copies of these reports some place. Salient points of these two reports should be used in some of the presentation material we prepare.

There is a story in the Oct 6 Wall Street Journal on high skilled immigration reform. If anyone has a subscription to that, pl. post for the benefit of members...
OpinionJournal's Political Diary
Who leaked the Foley emails and why?; industries seeking more high-skill immigrants pin their hopes on Congress's lame duck session; new film debunks the hypocrisy of anti-development greenies. (Click to Subscribe)

Seperately, the Economist has a 15-page report on the "Global Hunt for Talent". It specifically highlights how restrictive immigration quotas for skilled workers are hurting US competitiveness and how other western nations are racheting up their efforts to lure skilled foreigners.
http://www.economist.com/surveys/displaystory.cfm?story_id=7961938
Here are some excerpts
Most governments are easing restrictions on the entry of skilled workers. Some are going further and offering incentives. Germany has made it easier for skilled workers to get visas. Britain has offered more work permits for skilled migrants. France has introduced a “scientist visa”. Many countries are making it easier for foreign students to stay on after graduating. Canada and Australia have not only tilted their long-established points systems further towards the skilled, they have also introduced more incentives. Australia and New Zealand have created a ladder leading from universities to the workforce and then to permanent residence.
Two economists, Fr�d�ric Docquier and Hillel Rapoport, estimate that average emigration rates worldwide are 0.9% for the low-skilled, 1.6% for the medium-skilled and 5.5% for the high-skilled. These rates have been accelerating far faster for the high-skilled group than for the rest. Skilled immigrants accounted for more than half of all admissions in Australia, Canada and New Zealand in 2001. The global war for talent is likely to intensify. Most developed countries are already struggling to find enough doctors and teachers, and are wondering how they will manage when the baby-boomer generation retires. Developing countries, for their part, realise that they will not be able to plug into the global knowledge economy unless they give their people the freedom to move around.

Dear All,
I am leaving for India to get married in November. I haven't got my 485 receipt as yet nor have I got my H1-B transfer approval. I expedited my H1-B to premium processing and expect a reply soon.
I leave for India in the first week of November. Now what would happen if I get my finger printing appointment and I am in India?? Can i postpone it?
Thanks

I got EAD on February 2008 with my primary GC employer. My PD is just 4 months away and I got a job offer in a big company which I cannot afford to loose.
The the job duties in my new job remain the same but I am worried to change job during this time when PDs are jumping very fast. The max I can delay the joining my new employer cannot be more than a 1 month. Please suggest the best approach...

Thanks for the suggestion but We need people who are stuck in retrogression. Professionals who have a story to tell. They should be IV members too.
Yep, these associations have alumni on their mailing list too and thats how we can reach ppl stuck with retrogression. I know coz that association at my school, MSU maintains such a list too...

I was H1B, but used AP return to the U.S. the same company, but when I filed the new I-9 form after return, the company lawyer asked me to write EAD and EAD expiration date, so I guess I am AOS now? or not? I am not sure. My company will resume my H1B this month, but don't know when it will be completed.
Now I am going to e-file EAD renew.There are some questions in the form I-765 that I am not sure how to answer (The lawyer has completed his 140 and 485 document, so he doesn't want to answer now.):
1, Manner of Last Entry into the U.S.: Should I choose PAR (PAROLEE) or H1B (SPECIALITY OCCUPATION)?
2, Status: Should I choose PAR (PAROLEE) or H1B(SPECIALITY OCCUPATION)?
3, Please select your eligibility status : Should I choose (a) (4) PAROLEE or (c) (9) FILED I-485?
Thanks!
