I had a good experience with AI when I travelled with them. Flight was near empty, everybody had 3 - 4 seats to sleep on in economy class. Service was ok. Now they offer non stop flights at a great price, I would seriously consider them, overall well worth the price.

I am glad that you received the notice. It can be a result of either manual fault or imputting wrong application numbers.
Pls consult an experienced attorney and make sure that they dont come back after you once they detect their mistake.
Good Luck

I think the answer is Yes. The primary applicant can be on H1 and the spouse can be on EAD/AP.

Hi,
Looks like TSC is working fast approving EAD renewals. How about NSC? Did any one get EAD renewal approved from NSC?
Thanks

Called Rep. Lamar Smiths office, They took down the bill numbers and my message. They did mentioned that the bill is in the Jud committee and I need to call the Jud Committee chair, but I did mention that Rep. Lamar Smith's support would be key to solving the backlog issue in the EB GC process.

Guys,
Improving your own skills by doing Double MBA would not be gandhigiri.
A course in history will teach us what Gandhi did for rights of Indians in South Africa, who were oppressed and had to pay more taxes than anyone else. He fought for those people. If we could even manage to perform a percentile of that , we maybe able to get our community's problems resolved. I am sure the people working in farms in SA had no rights and were treated like slaves, we however, are in much better position and different times than the late 19th century. Not sure we can get a Gandhi to lead us, but if we strive for Unity among the Retrogressed community we can defintely improve our situation.

Who are you to decide who is needed and who is not needed? Are you sure you do not access other sites for news on immigration; and, IV does not encourage people who come to it for news only?
If answer is yes, please ban my access.

Nola, your intentions are good, but I do not agree with your conclusion. You are biased against yourself and other applicants.
1. who, applicant or cis, is required to make sure gc process is properly followed?
2. also, if someone goes thru' "pain of gc revocation" due to cis error, isn't it ethical (and legally required) to provide "ead/ap" (so person can continue to work and feed his family, be in status), "reinstatement of (again) pending 485" etc. to that person by cis?
3. are these legal & ethical norms only applies to one party or both parties involved in this process?
I understand what you are saying. Both, the applicant (or applicant's attorney) and CIS shold follow the correct procedure. However, there should be no elation to getting a GC when the PD is not current, hence there should be no distress for its "revocation" - which again is a matter of semantics, there is no GC, hence there is no revocation.
I commented on what the applicant and the applicant's attorney should do based on what is ethically and legally appropriate. I did not comment on what USCIS may or may not do to resolve such a situation.
I understand the struggle you metion; I have been in the US since 1994, i lost my priority date of Aug 2002 due to impatience with the backlog center. I started my GC process in 2001! I had a job loss due to Hurricane Katrina. I am married to a US Citizen, but cannot get sponsorship from that marriage due to DOMA. The pity list goes on and on for each and everyone of us. So believe, me, i understand the aspect of "struggle" that each of us has had to endure or is still enduring in order to get a GC.
I don't see how I am biased, especially against myself - that doesn't make sense. I am not an attorney, obviously, but i work very closely with attorneys, well it is essentially my job to work with them and the bottom line in every contractual arranagement or when applying the law, comes down to what are the obligations of the entities involved whether it is a contract or the practical application of the law.

Could you please provide following info
1. I-797 dates for Employer 2 and X
2. Last Date of entry in USA
3. Date when I-485 was filed
I-94 number being same does not mean much. One can have same I-94 number for COS from H1 to F1. On the other hand, one can have different I-94 with H-1B transfer. Typically, H-1B transfer means new H-1B petition for the beneficiary who is/was in H-1B status and is not subject to H-1 cap.
If beneficiary's initial H-1B was counted against cap in last 6 years, then subsequent H-1B petitions are not subject to cap and usually referred as H-1B transfers.

Two attorneys at Fragomen definitely went beyond call of duty for me on two separate occasions.
My prior comments stand:
1) Felt like object when employer contracted them.
2) Much better service when I contracted them directly.
Expensive.
It will depend on which attorney and paralegal you get.
Over 8 years, I've got through several paralegals there.
Some were great (but expensive), others were not.
In my job, software, some engineers are great, some are idiots (thankfully I don't work directly with any - incase boss is reading), and many are average (by definition). Same I am sure applies in most fields.
If you get a bad one from a big firm, and either complain (if you are the customer) and nothing happens, or you get two bad ones in a row from a big firm, then yes the big firm may be reasonably characterized as bad. However, if you have only had one attorney with a big firm then it may be unfair to characterize the firm based on that one attorney.

True if one want to die for Citizenship , But job market is not as great as here. One needs to be really lucky to be there and I also agree that its lot easier in life once you have a stable job. I have some friends who are well settled and enjoying a cool life. WHere as some are still looking for one and many moved back to US or Gulf once they got citizenship so it all depends... But Certain Citizenship of Canada is easiest compared to that of US and well respected too compared to US.
Kris04,
Appreciate your realastic advise, I believe its worth one dies in canada for citizenship. I would say CANADA is a great nation and citizenship is widely respected, on top of everything you are widely allowed to any country.

I usually don't reply to threads which waste my precious hours during the most productive time of the day. I just couldn't help observe how retarded this person is. His handle talks great about his country. WTF is he doing here? And I assume he is on H1B. Is it fair to say he was raped by some company too? And what do you mean there is no difference between those illegal immigrants and us? Seriously, I just hope you are not retarded to a point that your stupidity is causing an aura of imbecility around you. Your heart ain't broken its just abnormal. By the way, the moment you start labeling people as smart and not so smart, you have underestimated something called "TALENT". No one promised that if you went to DC you are going to get your GC. Your real reason is that you are hiding under the excuses of your mind blaming the system, the people who use the system and the people who are used by the system. Do remember that you are part of the system and your actions, however futile they may get(which i doubt cuz you will be blaming the system for the next 20yrs), will still be governed by the system and not by your petty thoughts.
Good luck and I really hope I don't meet you in person lest the aura of ineptitude is infectious!
NOTE: And yes, I do apologize for the bitter reply which ironically doesn't compliment my handle.

Again, Thanks a bunch Desi3933. My case is pretty much same as 'Scenario 1' in this Murthy document.
Desi3933 cleared the 99% of the cloud surrounded this issue by pointing to murthy.com (I maintained valid status with 'Employer #2' and this doc says I am good to go). Thank you very much Desi3933.
Apologize for extending the topic....but one of the 'still open' question is what if the Second Employer H1B is 'NEW' and what if it is 'Transfer'.
Murthy document does not say about the Company B H1B is NEW or TRANSFERRED.
If New H1B and Transferred H1B are same....then problem is solved.
Many of you here said both are same. I assume so too. But, we haven't proved Gapala is wrong yet (no hard feelings gapala. it is not my intention to hurt you). if 'NEW and TRANSFERRED' are different, Murthy should have mentioned in her Document, but she did not do that. So, can we safely assume, that 'NEW and TRANSFERRED' are same.
Thank you everyone who responding to my post.
Come on man....there is nothing called transfer. Every H1B is new. Only thing is its not counted against the cap when you change the employer.

2001 EB3 & EB2
2002 EB3 & EB2
2003 EB3 & EB2
....
2007 EB3 & EB2
$5000 shouldn't be a big deal for a quarter million community who's seeking some information on this...I guess either IV should start and campaign and collect money for this or we can saperately collect money for this..
