yes, you need passport size photograph (2x2 inch) for AP/EAD. when you file I-485, you will file EAD/AP and for that you need photographs. you need atleast 2 photographs for EAD and 2 photographs for AP. check the photograph specifications in EAD/AP form instructions or in USCIS website. USCIS is very specific about the photograph, I know couple of friends whose EAD applications are sent back when they did meet their specifications. so pay attention to their specifications.
check these websites for your reference inaddition to USCIS.gov:

Personally I dont think there would be much difference between Eb2 and Eb3 going forward (with Obama\Dick durbin presidency). With Obama CIR we might be forced to reapply in points based system in which case both eb2 and eb3 are screwed. I am not sure what sort of toxic potion is being brewed by Durbin for Eb community. Atleast with Mccain we might have 4 more years of same in which case there might be some hope for both eb2 and eb3.
I don't think there will be any surprises for the next 9 months as India and China have very limited quota per year. Besides the overflow that happens during the last quarter, I guess it is going to be a snail crawl for EB2.
EB3 India - well, can hibernate for the next 3-4 years.

I got a bunch that has photocopies from my lawyer of everything that went out to USCIS. 485, EAD, AP for myself and my wife.
Everything is ok, except that there is an extra copy of G 28 each for myself and my wife and these extra copies are not signed by attorneys.
In the middle of the package, right above the 485 forms, there are G28 forms that are properly signed. Everywhere else there is signatures where needed. But at the bottom of the bunch, there is extra G28 for each one of us that is missing signature from the attorney.
Could this be a problem? Also, where is the URL for USCIS FAQ that states under what conditions that petitions can boomerang back to us?
You are totally fine. According to the I-485 standard operating procedure, page 10, the following are the instructions for the mailroom person :
"Verify the G-28 for original signature of attorney and applicant. If
only one copy has been submitted and you have concurrently filed
applications, photocopy the G-28 for each application and initial
the copies with your employee number. Annotate the processing
worksheet".

the way i did it is i applied over internet using online AR-11 form. I did not apply by mail. Then, the next day, I called my lawyer's office and told them to contact USCIS to make them aware that my address has been changed on the petitions that are under consideration. For the people who use the online change of address path, i think everybody should know that there is more to it than just hitting submit button to AR-11. It then takes you further to ask whether do you have any pending petitions with USCIS. then you are supposed to say yes (if you do) and then it will take you to a screen where you provide your case numbers etc. however I couldnt get to that step due to some glitch so i decided to call my lawyer's office to have them finish that step. They simply called and informed USCIS of the address change.
hope this helps.
Did you apply online or thru regular mail? Also, if you sent regular mail, was it certified mail or just regular first-class mail?

Thanks for your kind advice. I tried to take Infopass now. Shockingly, no appointment is available for August and September. Is there any way that we can get emergency Infopass at Local office?

For the benefit of people (like me ) who filed 2 sets of I-485s on same underlying I-140, during the July 07 fiasco, I am posting this info.
My July 2/07 filing got approved, I and my family got LPR cards on 8/8/8.
My other I-485 is still on with Last UD on 4/9/08 I did not get a FP notice on this, but my son and wife did FP on 1/2/08 and had LUD. I think USCIS will send a denial notice soon on these.
I also did e-filing for EAD renewal in mid July 08, did FP on 8/5/08, with a LUD on 8/8/08, the day we received out plastic GCs in mail.Again expect denial soon as I have GC now.
Any way I am not withdrawing these apllications myself,to avoid any confusion.
Fortunately I did not get RFEs, no "administrative process", as some one suggested, nor it did cause my case to be delayed specifically due to this duplicate application.
I did not want to lose the 1 month window opportunity that I got to get my AOS underway after waiting from 9/30/05,the last day when EB2 was current for me, and my PERM was found certified that morning at 10.00M.Eventhough I sent the whole package of 140/145 by day samedayFedEX, it reached VSC after office hours.VSC refused to accept my package and returned it back stating, PD not current on 10/3/05.
My next chance came almost 2 years later and the the July VB fiasco, Initial reports were that NSC was sending all the July2 back, so when I did not receive the package nor the I-797 until 8/16/07, I filed the second 485s.
Eventhough I had done stop payment on my checks and had asked" Do not Open in mail room" + plea to disregard the duplicate filing if my first filing was already accepted, with bold Multicolored lettering, the mail room clerks did not pay attention, went ahead and accepted my filing. When these checks were not cashed, USCIS sent collection notice from Debt management dept, I had to pay whether or this application was accepted or not. So I lost the filing fee and the penalty about $1200.00
I hope it will be ok for all the people who did like me. I wish all of you the best and early approvals

Did you fill any I-9 form or your hr filed it? the status of the applicant is decided by the I-9 Employment eligibility form.
Even otherwise i dont think it is a problem, they can change the form again to show your respective status ?
I signed a I-9 form in 2005. At that time, I indeed was on a marriage based EAD because I had an I-485 pending, which later I withdrew and went for H1B. Since then, nobody talked to me about changing the I-9 (I should have thought about it though). However, I provided them with a H1B copy when it was issued.
Since HR mentioned that my EAD expired and they needed a new one, it is clear that they were not refering to the old EAD (marriage based I-485), since that one expired in 2006. So somehow the lawyers, to whom I gave a copy of the EAD last year (they requested it), forwarded the EAD to HR.
Of course HR can change my status in their records now (by renewing the I-9?), but I am worried about the damage is done already and my H1B is invalidated. I don't know how I can find that out.

Hi All,
I received an RFE based on my qualification and the Job requirement qualification.
While applying for PERM, in the ETA 9089 form, Attorney mistakenly listed as below
1. Accepted / Required Bachelors Degree for the Posted Job:
Computer Science, Mathematics (Instead of Mathematics, it should have been Engineering)
2. Any Other Alternate Degree accepted:
NO
And in my profile, he listed the degree as ENGINEERING.
Now during the I-140 stage, i got an RFE based on this mismatch. Here is the verbiage.
The USCIS is requesting evidence that the beneficiary obtained a Bachelor�s Degree in Computer Science or Mathematics, OR evidence that the degree obtained was part of the Computer Science or Mathematics program/department.
MY Attorney Suggested 2 things.
1. Get my degree transcripts evaluated by a third party educational evaluator and equate the courses i have done (7 Computer Courses and 9 Mathematics courses) as part of Computer Science / Mathematics Degree.
2. Get an verification letter from the University that these courses are infact related to Computer Science / Mathematics Degree.
Please let me know if i stand any chance with these 2 options.
I guess both options are good but I would suggest option 1. Btw you should kick you lawyer's a** so hard so that he would not make this mistake again in his life. Sorry for my language. Why do these lawyers screw up our lives? I have had enough with these so called idiots who cannot do a simple job without making any mistakes. My lawyer screwed up my life with just a single mistake and I have been suffering for the past 5 years now, otherwise I would have got my GC in 2005.
Anyways, dont worry you should be just fine. Please contact Murthy or some other good laywers to work on your RFE and do not go with your current lawyer please.

Hi,
I and my wife got AP's issued on Feb 4th 2008 with Validity till Feb 03 2008. We went to India and I returned on March 23rd and my Wife on April 20th, so at the port of entry we entered thru AP. On I-94 and AP officer stamped "Paroled till March 22 2009" for me and "Paroled till April 19th 2009" to my wife.
Now my question is: my wife wants to visit India soon in Feb 1st week and return before April 1st week, does she need to apply for a new AP or can she use the existing AP at the POE? Would there be any issues? Please suggest.
Also, In case if she stays for long, can I apply for a new AP for her when she is in India?
Thanks in Advance.

Also, there is no way that they can reduce the backlog if they end up waiting for the PDs to be current.
I think you missed the point: if no PD is current, then there are no backlogs.
If a case cannot be approved because it exceeds the regulatory requirements, it wont count as a backlogged case. It will sit there, gathering dust, but wont be counted in any of these stats...

We ought to contact lawmakers and make them see the plight of legal immigrants. There is no other way about it....even if we don't have a vote now, we have a voice...that of a LEGAL immigrant (and a future Citizen!). Each one of you find out where the meeting is going to be, and make a point to attend and atleast ask one question- It has been said that America is a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants- so Congressman, while you're working against ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, what are you doing to help LEGAL IMMIGRANTS??? (Suggestions welcome) ...And then personalize your story with your personal troubles...backlog, retrogression, endless waits obeying the law...and not getting a dime in benefits...

More Good News ... House leaders emboldened by YOU & pushing for enforcement-only bill
SENATE BILL FOR AMNESTY AND MASSIVE IMMIGRATION INCREASE IS DEALT MORE BLOWS .......
....... Speaker of House is totally impressed by citizen pressure at a town hall meeting!!
Wait until you see the report below from a Hill staffer of the Speaker's comments in a closed session of congressmen/women.
As I predicted to you in my email Monday morning, the terrible Senate bill has further bogged down this week as U.S. House leaders have become increasingly emboldened by you citizens' phone calls, faxes, office visits and attendance at town hall meetings.
Suddenly this week, Speaker of the House Hastert announced that he wouldn't be immediately appointing House negotiators to hammer out a compromise with Senators in a joint Conference Committee. Rather, he announced a series of public hearings to be held across the country over July and August to get public feedback on the provisions of the Senate bill.
Hahahahaha.
Maybe the 63 hidden provisions in the Senate mystery bill that our Rosemary Jenks uncovered and exposed at the National Press Club (but with very little media interest) will get proper vetting from the American people.
This is such terrible news for the Kennedy/McCain/Bush open-borders folks who had hoped to ram their bill into law without the public truly discovering what was in it.
Even better, Speaker Hastert announced principles that should undergird House action and they were all about enforcement and nothing about increasing legal immigration or guestworkers.
WHAT PERSUADED HASTERT TO DO THIS?
Rep. Hastert (R-IL) has always voted very well but has not been very helpful as a leader. He has been much too eager to please the White House when it asks for favors and to help out the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Nonetheless, he has often ended up helping block bad stuff in the House and was a big help in the end in passing the ban on drivers licenses for illegal aliens. But his behavior this week represents a whole new side of Hastert. And it is pretty apparent why he changed.
Check out this email from a Republican staffer to Rosemary describing the closed-door session Hastert had with Republican Members of the House.
Rosemary --
You may already have heard this, but it was too good not to pass along. In GOP conference this morning, Hastert started talking about an event he went to with several hundred of his constituents. He went on and on about this was in Illinois, in the heartland of the country, Illinois wasn't a border state -- and every question but one from his constituents was about immigration.
He then said this proves it's a national issue and not just a border state issue and it is really important. (Hastert, our fearless leader, moonlights as Captian Obvious.)
Technically everything that goes on in conference is supposed to stay confidential but my boss was going on about it and how he thought the meeting with his constituents made a huge difference to Hastert.
I thought you'd find it encouraging that all the hard work your minions are doing about bugging the hell out of these guys at public events is working.
You're outgunned, outspent, and outlobbied -- but you're winning. I am now officially cautiously optimistic.
-- (from a House GOP staffer)
As the staffer knows, we have been pushing all of you to try to attend any meeting where your Members of Congress can be found so you can ask questions, hold a sign or just applaud other people who say what you believe about immigration.
More and more of you are doing this.
Now, the entire nation owes a debt of gratitude to those northern Illinois voters who showed up at that meeting and so impressed the Speaker of the House!
We will continue to inform you on your Action Buffet corkboard every time we know your Senators or your Representative are going to be appearing somewhere in your area.
Please keep checking your corkboard at:
www.NumbersUSA.com/actionbuffet
Also, please keep telling us if you know of a meeting or appearance that appears to be something we may not know about. The only way we can inform everybody in a district about an event is if somebody tells us about the event ahead of time.
As for the hearings, some of your NumbersUSA staff have already been invited to testify. We will be sending notices to you about when and where they will occur so that many of you can attend and reinforce the position of no amnesty and reduced total immigration numbers.
Finally, I just have to note that after the Senate passed its monstrosity in late May, we got a ton of emails from people saying they were giving up and that no hope was left. You may recall that we continued to tell you that we believed we could beat this thing if we all kept fighting. Well, most of you kept fighting. Even I am a little surprised at how well things are working out at the moment. But I have no doubt that the only factor is the never-ending drum-beat of citizen complaint that Members are hearing.

Others, please correct me if I am wrong.
I think you need labor from current employer and an I140.
You can not port your PD to a different employer based on just an existing labor.
You can do a H1 transfer for the remaining duration of your H1 and maybe add any time you were not in US in the past years while on H1.
If you have the I140 ( should get in a few days in premium processing) then you can get your new employer to start a new green card process but carry your PD from your earlier employer.
Most importantly talk to a lawyer rather than depending on people here.
Good luck.
I think you need labor from current employer and an I140.
You can not port your PD to a different employer based on just an existing labor.
You can do a H1 transfer for the remaining duration of your H1 and maybe add any time you were not in US in the past years while on H1.
If you have the I140 ( should get in a few days in premium processing) then you can get your new employer to start a new green card process but carry your PD from your earlier employer.

I am sure you don't even have to be in the US to trade in US stocks. There are people that have never been to the US that participate actively in US stocks and just as Americans participate in some foreign markets too.
In the final analysis, most restrictions on H1B workers are stupid.

All,
I think we are most close to H-1B process and thus we should be one who should propose changes to H-1B program to congress so that they can make program more fair and transparent to all. I suggest the following changes. I think IV core should take this up with senator/house representative.
H1-B improvements:
1) Instead of visa becoming available once every year (1 October), make visa � of the visa quota available every quarter and one can apply for visa in any given quarter on any day of the quarter or 10 days before the start of the quarter. Unused visas of preceding quarter are added to the next quarter.
2) Remove lottery system of awarding visa. In stead use the following method:
a. Until the first day of quarter, all applications for that quarter is accepted (first day of the quarter not included). Visa availability decision is made on first day of the quarter and then every first day of the week of that quarter. Let call these days �visa count day (VCD)�.
b. If number of application received between to consecutive �visa count day� or before the first VCD is less then number of available visas, all those applications are assigned available visas. Available visa count is reduced by number of applications with assigned visas.
c. No application is accepted if it was received on or after the VCD AND it was determine on that VCD that sufficient visas are not available for applications received between preceding VCD and the current VCD (or 10 days if VCD is the start of the quarter). Call this VCD �cut-off VCD� and immediate week (or 10 days if this is first VCD) preceding it �cut-off period (CP)�
d. The application received is CP is assigned available visa as follows:
i. Create the pool of all the employers who have applied in CP and still have H-1B application requiring new visa.
ii. Start with an employer playing highest salary to the H-1B applicant and assigned one visa to that application. Remove this employer for the pool. Move on to next highest paying employer in the pool and assigned one visa to that application.
iii. Continue doing point two (ii) until all visas are exhausted or there are no more employers in the pool. In later case, again create employer pool as stated in point one (i) and repeat the process.
3) Special clause for consulting position: If application for H-1B visa requires consulting work, following is required:
a. New LCA is required every year and when consultant changes the client.
b. New LCA must be based on the client�s job and experience requirement.
c. H-1B applicant must be paid based on LCA.
d. If H-1B applicant can establish significant fraud/H-1B exploitation, he/she (and any dependent) is awarded EAD immediately and he/she is eligible to apply for permanent residency without employer application. Employer is no longer eligible to apply for H-1B application and is fined $1million per fraud.
Some are good ideas. Did you think of the administrative overhead? What is the need for the special clause? It is too restrictive.
I think, in long run, increasing the cap, preventing the exploitation/ fraud, faster GC process are workable solutions. I sometimes hear that some companies bring L1B holders and place them as consultants ( a clear violation of L1 visa)..That is the area lawmakers should really drill more. L1 is clearly exploited, it is used like a virtual back door with no cap limits.

I will be applying for Employment Based green card (EB 1) as I am a multinational Manger . Would also like to include my spouse in the process. He is currently entering the US in July on F1 Visa to enroll into full time masters for 2 years My employer can file for a green card anytime
I would like to understand the following 1) Can my spouse continue in F1 status and be eligible for internship and OPT until the green card is received 2) Is there any consequences to his present status (F1) because we are going to process his green card? 3) Can he obtain EAD/H1 after his education if the green card is still pending
We don't want to get into a situation where he has lost his privilages as a F1 student because he has applied for green card.Please advice
Are you from infy/TCS/Wipro....in that case no problem.
