I understand that IV needs the money to get things done. But money is not the only thing IV needs. It needs people to volunteer, make calls, meet lawmakers, participate in rallys, general conference calls and start motivating campaigns like the one availing FOIA. If money contributions are the only way for people to be up-to-date about status of IV activities, then what about the people who contribute in other forms?
IV may get the money needed, but at what cost?
So what do you suggest as the alternate to get the needed fund...?

The RFE is not unusual, they are sending RFE's on all pending I-485 applications in an attempt to pre-process the applications and have them ready before the priority date becomes available.
Even though the beneficiary does not have to be working for the GC sponsoring company and the offer of employment can be a future offer, i always advice my clients to work for the sponsoring employer, if possible, otherwise the USCIS might raise the issue of the validity of the job offer, they have done this in the past. I also always advice clients to do AC-21 whenever they can, rather than depend on future employment.
It is difficult to predict what the Officers decision will be and what factors he will look at, and your attorney is not wrong in his response, however if you were my client i would advice you to use AC-21. The USCIS has not indicated that AC-21 has to be invoked as soon as you join the new employer, no deadline for invoking AC-21. However, you should have a GC sponsor at all times to keep your GC alive. In your case, company A was your sponsor until the time that company C has agreed to be your sponsor and invoke AC-21.
It is also good to invoke AC-21 because at the time of filing for citizenship they will see if you worked for your sponsoring employer for at least 6 months after getting the GC and if you did not, they will ask why dint you.
Further Questions:
Can I invoke AC21 now when an RFE is pending? Also, since I had already joined company C when I applied for 485, can I still invoke AC21. Do I reply to the RFE first and then invoke AC 21 or as part of RFE can I invoke AC21? Thanks again.
The dates in the first couple of sentences are all messed up ( came to US through Company A in June 2007 and was with them until Dec 2006...........I joined Company B in Jan of 2007(change of H1) and was with them until April of 2007. )
It would help to answer if you can correct the dates.

I am quite happy with the answer from Logiclife. That is a logical response considering the difficulty we have with fund raising. Though IV has been there for just three months, we did a damn good job of raising the awareness and mobilizing people impacted.
My interest in raising the question was to gather the feedback and see what happens. Even though IV is focussing on BECs and retrogression right now, if this campaign is successful, there are other problems to solve down the line. Once we get the Greencards, are we going to stop looking at problems faced by others and go into our own shell like most of the current H-1B holders are doing right now? Or we take the same fighting spirit from this endevor and continue the efforts?
I am predicting that extending the V-Visa provison would become the goal of atleast some of us after getting a Greencard. I have few friends who could not bring their spouses here and I feel their pain.
Jinger,
Would you be constructive, bring some friends, organize and lead an effort to get this provision and prove you are unselfish? Criticizing someone is easy, but when you start doing the job, you would find the difficulties. So I urge you to move on to action, not criticism.

Thanks for your reply and I understand that AC21 can be used for job in same or similar occupation.
But my questions is that what happen if my GC applied thru Emp A for "programmer analyst" with 60K and now I am planning to change my job with Emp B as "Sr. Program Manager" with 100K?
Since my Emp A (GC sponsor) agree to continue the GC process, why do i need to invoke AC21 with Emp B?
Looking forward to have your answer on this... thank you so much in advance...

I had same problem,Employer not giving I-140 reciept notice.
How to get it from USCIS.
Thanks in advace.
The Problem is my employer is not sharing this information with me.I want to make decision of moving the employer only if i know that my 140 is approved. My fear is that my employer may tell me that 140 is still pending even if it is approved.

CIS cannot approve a change of status to H-1B since you are not maintaining status. You will likely be approved as a notify and need to leave the US, get a H-1B visa, and then re-enter in H-1B status. It is critical that you don't overstay your I-94 by 180 days. If you do, you are subject to a 3 year bar on returning to the US.
You are out of status now, and have been out of status since your I-94 expired. You could be removed (deported) if you were found by CIS.
I suggest getting a second legal opinion because your lawyer might be giving you misleading information. It's hard to tell without knowing all the facts and what exactly s/he said to you.

Not from the bathtub. ;)
Post your experience with the call.
My experience was very pleasant! They did not say it in so many words, but it was clear that they appreciated my call. I urge all of you to call Senator Cornyn. This is a really good idea, unless the core thinks otherwise (I am really not sure what the core thinks about this). Their staff has not received too many calls from supporters like us is what I could make out (but I could be wrong).
And by the way, the call was made from just outside my office on a cell phone --- not from the bath tub this time :)

The desperation of your post suggests that you don't need direction, you need therapy. We just need someone to give us some assurance that we will all be fine and live to see the light of the day on Tuesday even if DoS sends out a revised Visa Bulletin. At this time, I too need similar assurance from someone. Can anybody help?
Show us that you too know something about DOS. Please let us know what you know whether it's 50% truth or 98%.
We badly need an update from core team... even if it's conditional update.

This happens from time to time dont know why but it happens.It happened for my wife too , we had efiled for EAD and her application status showed that notice(FP) returned as undeliverable. My wife wrote back to USCIS
saying that she had received all her prior communication from USCIS here
(for example we put in copies of 485 recipt notice,485 FP notice,EAD recipt notice) and it seems to a mistake of USPS. She also wrote to the Local Postmaster as to why the notice from USCIS was returned and in future all this should not reoccur. Within a day or two we got her EAD approved and recieved it in mail.
The point I am trying to make is that calling(it might not be the best option as lines are busy,reps dont have the info you would like etc) as well as writing does help when u know the where to send mail , we were lucky as we had efiled so it does specify where to send the application and docs .Good Luck.
In my case just now I called up again with POJ method got hold of nice IO. She took her own time to dig out all teh information rleated to my case and saught confirmation on many things like address name etc. After few minutes she said dont worry about the online status my case is assigned to officer. I hope whatever the outcome will be good.

I..sort of have turned philosophical abt the whole process. Having said that, I also see bright flashes off and on...(just kiddin'). I talk optimism, walk optimism, eat optimism, sleep optimism :) ..ends here!.
If all that it takes is - a copy of our presentation to be mailed/emailed to this 'super cop' of a minister or his office, I would still do it. That way, I have at least challenged him..

I recently heard that during WWII US gave citizenship to soldiers from Phillipines to fight against Japan. Once the war was over it stripped citizenship of those soldiers (250,000 soldiers). US did not even compensate those soldiers with money. These soldiers recently got compensation from stimulus package to the amount of 15k/person for the work they did in 1940s.
So beware to sign up for this program. Especially with military, they can chose what is confidential/matter of national security etc and not let you go in court, while you are outside fighting in Pakistan.

I have been trying to change my address online for the last two days and it looks like the system is down. I called them up and they are not able to do it either. What a mess. I hope they don't mail our applications till the issues are resolved.
Also if I only want to change address on pending applications but not AR-11, there is no such option (other than calling them).
It looks like their systems are down since yesterday. Today even case status wasnt working for a while (it seems to be working now).
Anyone else having issues?
