Thanks! It's just a modest attempt to entertain outselves with humor in these hard times.
Actually thanks to these articles and comments on BW and other forums - they are inspiration to write something witty and funny!

Anyone got a generic response to an I-485 Service Request that "your case is awaiting standard security checks required for everyone who applies for this immigration benefit"?
More importantly, did anyone get an approval for their I-485 after being stuck in such a check?
Thanks much.

Below is my understanding as I searched for answer sometime back.
yes, you can change employer. You have to get into similar job. The only problem is your H1 extension. For that, the old employer should not revoke the I 140. You old labor should be valid until you finish the GC process.
If anyone thinks othewise, letme know.

Travel on AP and work on H1B? Have applied for 485, AP and EAD. By the way, what is the advantage of doing so?
Assuming you have valid I797 (h1), the advantage of using an AP is to reenter the country without worrying about getting a visa stamping in the passport. But if you already have a valid stamping then it does not matter whether you use ur h1 or AP to reenter the country.
But an EAD/AP is always good to have along with your H1 as that gives you another option of switching jobs after 180 days of filing 485, when the new employer is not willing to file a transfer of H1.
Cheers.

I do not think it would be prudent of Indian (or any other foreign) government to do so. The best they can do it to try to lure the NRIs back to India. Any effort to request immigration reforms at a government level would not be a dignified action.
The US government may (albeit privately) wonder as to why these foreign governments cannot make mends with their own system so that people do not choose to immigrate in the first place. I do not think a sensible foreign policy on Indian side would let such a talk happen.
Is it a bad idea to ask for help from the indian government, there are ministers like "Minister for Overseas Indian Affairs - Vayalar Ravi" who is supposed to ...........

Hi All,
Thanks for the warm words.
I am very much around, just buried under a juggernaut project at work so I can't be IV 24-7. I hope to get a life in a month or so.
I have too much invested in IV and this whole issue to just walk away. That Senate bill has stuff the IV content team cracked and crafted, which the rest of the crew strategized to actually get into the bill that passed. We have to carry it to the finish line -- which may look like a mirage right now -- but we will get there.
Keep faith.
best,
Berkeleybee

You are right. There are days I feel like writing to Durbin, Grassley or Sanders about this practice because few of all the 350K odd BEC LCs are out there for taking by these a**h**s. I have always wished that one day all these approvals get dug out and financials behind them investigated. I wouldn't be too sad to see all these guys behind bars and their GCs revoked.
Hey its give and take rite , if he bought the labor and or abused the system
it was there to be abused , i know gaziiilllion other people who bought labor and now have GC so dont go after this guy if u want go after the ones who provide such kinda services viz a viz desi employers who by the way are laughing all the way to the bank

Would there be delay in issuing EAD for my spouse if there is RFE for I-485 application? Is EAD depends on I-485 approval.? My birth certificate have some mistake in father's name. It will take time as we need to do change in original birth record. So I am submitting affidavit right now.
Is this thing will delay EAD?
Thanks

There is no rule/law that'll help you get a green card if you stay here for 10 years or even 50 years.
People are not trying to be rude, just a little confused with your innocence.
Honestly, some of us are waiting legally for more than 12 years for the green card. So, given our situation, your question tickled us.

That's true for my case. My labor certification was denied once due to the naive aknowledge of my para-legal attorney. It caused my LC was delay 1 year then I was stuck by Retrogression. Again at filing I-485, if I have not carefully studied the immi laws and reviewed my case, my attorney might mess it up. Many times I found my non-professional, clumsy knowledge on Immi laws is even better than my para-legal attorney

Hi Folks, I have few questions regarding opening NRE account...
1. Seems most of the banks offer NRE account for NRIs. In general, which bank is better for opening such an account?:confused:
2. Do all the banks which offer NRE accounts offer account services irrespective of which branch I open the account at? e.g., if I open an NRE account say in delhi, can I have access to and get service for the account say in bangalore? Or do I have to go to that particular branch where I opened the account? In this regard, which bank is better?
3. Which bank generally gives better exchange rates?
4. Any pros or cons in opening the NRE account at one bank vs. the other?
Thanks for your replies...
I will only answer # 2, the rest depends upon where you live.
for #2, I hope they are not yet that flexible and allow people to withdraw funds from any branch. The situation in India is not as secure as you see here. What kind of ID will you show if you want to withdraw from other branch? drivers lisence? I am not sure whether that is very secure yet in India. I would suggest to not even have an online access to your accounts and also insist on personal contact with the manager so he/she is aware of how you manage your account. Always try to do banking at only one branch in India. Not to scare you but it is safer. Hackers are not yet very rampant but if it happens then it will be very difficult to trace lost money.
I do have NRE/NRO accounts and none of them have online access. However the manager regularly sends me a statement in text format via email. Also for NRO accounts they issue statements which can be used for filing the income tax in India (make sure you do that). The manage asked whether I need online access and I declined.
If you need higher interest rates on your deposit open a NRO (fixed deposit) account. Your interest (after taxation) is fully repatriable to the US but the principal amount cannot be repatriated. The is useful if you want to do a long term deposit instead of real estate / share markets etc.

My 485 app was received on July 18 at NSC, no checks cashed yet. EAD/ AP recieved on Aug 10 at NSC, got RN for EAD and AP. Is there a possibility of getting EAD card, even if 485 was not filed? One of my freinds was under the same situation, and she and her spouse got the EAD from TSC, without 485 filing.
As far as I know, it should not happen. This is bizzare...May be it was a mistake in ur friend's case...

USINPAC: Not sure they have co-ordinated as per my understanding, Does CORE knows??
Definitely they have not started this campaign.
As per USINPAC, you need to say thank you to them as they claim to have started and run this campaign.

Hi
I was also tested possitive due to vaccination in India. did the skin test and X-ray. I talked to my family Dr.(and couple of my Dr. Freinds.) and they all told me that my body will allways react to this test due to vaccination and if X-ray is fine we do not need any medication. In US all the Dr. has to get the test once a year and those vaccinated in their native country has to get an X-ray to confirm it as the test is allways possitive for them.
I would say Consult another Dr. just to be sure.
Thanks
