This is what I got from the below link
http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/...0News/2359471/
Chairman of the Asian Pacific American Caucus, Rep. Michael Honda, will hold a press conference on Thursday, June 4, at 12:00 p.m. on Cannon Terrace, or in case of rain Cannon House Office Building Room 441, to present key components of a comprehensive immigration package, in preparation for President Obama's reform agenda. Joining the Congressman will be other Members of Congress and supporting advocacy organizations. Rep Honda will discuss his Reuniting Families Act, to be introduced in Congress this week, and the need to reform America's family-based immigration system to end lengthy separations of loved ones, promote family stability and foster the economic growth that immigrant families have provided throughout our history.
Provisions related to Employment based Greencards:
*Recaptures unused family-based and employment-based visas previously allocated by Congress which remain unused.
* Increases the per country limits of family and employment-based visas from 7% to 10%: Right now, each country only has a 7% share of the total cap of visas that Congress allocates each year. Increasing each country's percentage of visas would eliminate the absurdly long wait times for individuals to immigrant from certain countries like the Philippines, China, and India.
This bill is similar to S 1085 introduced in the Senate with regard to employment-based visa provsions - basically recapture and increase per country limits from 7 to 10%

Does the cover-letter you included while filing your 485 include your job duties?
thats basically what you need, to make sure your new duties/position are inline with what was decribed in the LC.
We have a company lawyer. Only thing I have is 485 receipts, FP notice, EAD and AP.
Nothing has been shared with us till I-140 approval.
Upon my demands, all I got is my I-140 application number. My HR dept has a strict position that I-140 & LC are employer documents and it will NOT BE Shared with employees.
I still doubt that USCIS will expect me to have these documents.
Any ideas How can I know job description? Can I call USCIS? dont' think they will entertain?
I am about to file for H1B extension. Is there anything here that can give me some idea about job description? I guess H1B and LCA job description should be same. isn't it???

Don't worry about it. Infact I had 3 different numbers..one for EAD on F1, 140 and 485.
The 485 and EAD (GC based) had the same number. When ever I had to apply for AP or EAD (did only once as I always had H1), I used the one on 485 receipt as this is what I have on my GC.
I was under the impression that I will have only one A#... apparently I was wrong :)..many people said go take an infopass, get it consolidated etc.. I think this will mess up things than clearing it going by their efficiency.
Forget about the one on 140....always use what they gave you on 485 receipt... leave the consolidation part to them.

Hi Kitiara,
I get asked to make quite a few banners for different companies and through trial and error I have found that once you have created your images in photoshop and saved them at the lowest file size as possible without losing any quality, open the images up in fireworks and create the animation there using frames as I find fireworks optimises gifs muchbetter than photoshop,
(And believe me it hurts me to say that as i'm a big photoshop fan).
I'm sure your aware also that the more frames you use the bigger the file size is going to be so its always best to use the least ammount of frames needed and adjust the frame speed of each frame to get the required effect.
By the way I love looking at the images you create when you post them do you have a tutorial website where I could create one for my nickname of The Bandit:bandit:

Hello,
My apologies upfront if I am posting this in the wrong thread.
I am currently working on an H1B which expires in Jan 08. My question is regarding H1B extension beyond the 6yr limit. Is it possible to get an extension for my H1B (7.5 yrs completed) even after having filed my I-485 (I was able to file 485 in July of this year)?
As per my lawyer, if for some reason, my EAD renewal next year is delayed or the new card not delivered on time, I will not be allowed to work though I will not be illegal. Keeping this in mind, and also after reading numerous posts online, I got my HR to give the nod for the H1 renewal. My lawyer replied today saying that we cannot get an H1 extension as my 485 is filed and 140 cleared.
I was under the impression that I would be allowed to get the H1B renewed for another year. What are the rules / regulations on this. If someone can pls update me.
Thank you.

My GC status is as follows
I-140 - approved

I'm in the same position as yourself - TN currently, H1 approved for Oct 1. Even if my visa # becomes current, I am waiting until Oct 1 to file 485, so that I'll be on H1 at that point and I don't have to risk being out of status for even 1 second (in the eyes of USCIS) btwn TN & HI taking effect. I am planning a trip home early August, so I only have to wait an additional 1.5 months for that peace of mind-open visa # window, pending...
Just my $.02 worth, but if I were in your shoes, I'd be concerned that USCIS will consider your 485 abandoned when you leave the US while on your TN. Even though you wouldn't have worked btwn status change, I think they consider your "TN status" on-and-off, as come and go from the US - so that once you leave the US, you wouldn't have any "status" left to adjust... H1's (as dual intent) have a provision that allow you to come and go from the US without having abandoned a 485 application... The many people in the past who have successfully completed 485's while on TN's, were able to renew their TN and submit 485 immediately, stay in the US until their EAD/AP arrived and then leave at will, re-entering on 485-pending status via their approved EAD.
Again, just my weekend warrior opinion! Best wishes with it, at any rate!

It was rejected on Sep 22nd. Lawyer got the letter long back. But he didn't get back to me infact he didn't know about rejection untill I called USCIS & found out the issue & informed him. I think he miss placed my rejection letter. He took 1000$ more from me for giving fast service.

My H1B expired in April 2008. My company is not willing to extend H1B any more due to the reason that I got EAD and I-140 approved and pending 485. Is it possible to get H1B extension from current or future company based on approved I-140? Or Is it too late?
You might wondering why do I need H1B now. I am not sure why I need H1B. Some of my friends who had trouble in their I-140/485 were able to survive with H1B. So, it looks like it is better to have dual. H1B and EAD.
Please advise.

Dear All,
Today, one of my Friend�s I-485 got returned from Mail room due to Filing fee missing.
He is 100% sure that he attached 325$+70$ filing fee along with application, he has photocopy too to prove his stand.
He is lucky, that he is re- filing it again, my question is , what happens, if the file get returned due to mail room clerks error . Can we refile again after 17th Aug,2007 ?
What proof we have to make sure that we filed properly, will USCIS honor our proof ( that is photocopy of all the document we retain ) as a proof that we filed properly.
Hi bijualex29,
Can you please confirm with your friend whether his 140 LUD (Last Update Date) changed or not. I want to know whether they check our 140 status before or after the data entry.

I have changed the job on EAD and used AP for returning back. To be on the safeside I have notified USCIS service center about my AC21 change and kept the copy of the package sent to USCIS.
On our return in EWR, we have been sent to secondary inspection. IO asked whom I am working? I said my new employer's name? He took our copies of AP and stamped I-94 as parolled.
On our return in two days our greencard was also approved without any RFEs.
Again it depends on I/O in the port of entry I guess.

Came to USA in 2001 Feb. As many other stories, my old employer did file my labor on Jan 2006 on EB3 though i was eligible to file under EB2. I have 3 + 2 years in India.
Changed employer using EAD in 08.
Current company is doing porting to EB2.
Unlike before, Now USCIS rule is have MSc(Computers) after completing 3 year degree in india is no longer equal to US master degree
it should be eaither 4(engineering)+2 (masters) or 3(BS)+3(MCA/other)
thus its equivalent to US bachelors degree.
So my employer (big 17k employees) decided to file based on my exp.
Job description says "Bachelors degree (B.A) in related area and 4-6 years of experience
in the field or in a related area."
Will this be a problem as one of EB2 requirement is BS or equivalent US degree with 5 years of experience. But this job desc says its 4-6 years..

I had a 10 year multiple entry B1/B2 visa which was to expire in 2013. I got married a couple of months ago, and since my husband is on a H1B, I got a H4 visa for the next 1.5 years. My passport with the B1/B2 visa DOES NOT have CWOP (Canceled without prejudice) written on it. My question is- has my B1/B2 visa been canceled? Or is it still valid? Can I hold 2 visas for entry into the US at the same time. If it has not been canceled, can I still use it for entry into the US once I lose my H4 status? Thank you for your time.
Chitra -
It depends on your reason for seeking entry into USA. If you are going to stay as dependent of H-1B worker, you can NOT use B1/B2 visa to enter.
>> Can I hold 2 visas for entry into the US at the same time.
One can have multiple visas in the passport, but only 1 visa can be used to seek entry into USA.
>> can I still use it for entry into the US once I lose my H4 status?
Please explain the scenario.

Most of these case I have heard have got H4 visa without any issues. You will do OK. Go for stamping.
Dont give misleading information. If you are in H1B for three years without pay stub, its a serious issue.

H4 visa holder can pursue their studies in US but they cannot work while studying.
he/she should stay in H4 visa if you filed (or want to file) I-485 based on your dependent's I-485 application because F1 visa holders are not eligible for I-485 dependent benefits and changing from H4 to F1 will cancel the I-485 application if he/she already filed based on dependent application.
so better to stay in H4 if you filed or want to file I-485 based on your dependent's application until you get GC.
My wife is completing 6 years on H1 visa in Sept 07. She is planning to join school which will isssue her I-20. The school starts in Aug07 and she need to go to India for 2 weeks in Nov 07.
Can she get H4 stamped from canada on my H1B, so that she do not face F1 rejection in india?
Thanks
