You should just provide a valid reason for your case for the senator to help. All senators have direct lines to immigration offices. They can expedite your case and the results are astonishing.
My cousin left to india for an emergency and his AP was pending. Contacted senator and got it approved immediately in a day.
I also heard that one person got his 140 approved in a week. Not sure what reason he provided.
But senators are certainly helpful unlike Indian politicians.
With reference to some one’s case being transferred to the BEC, there are 300,000 other people in the same boat so hold you’re horses.

Hi,
We had been to Canada in Sep, 2003 for our Canadian residency stamping. While on our way back to San Francisco, US immigration did not stamp our passports or take back our I-94's. Prior to this trip we had been to India in March, 2003.
Now I am confused as to what should be our last date/port of entry to US? I-94's/passport stamp still indicates our March, 2003 trip and Our Canadian PR stamp does indicate date PR was stamped in Canada. But there's not other stamp/proof on passport for our entry to San Francisco.
Any pointers/suggestions?
Thanks

My lawyer said the same thing. As long as USCIS understands what is written there is no problem. He wrote annual income and send the form.

if this helps any one:
My 485 filled on July 2nd @ NSC Received at 11:11 AM - No check cashed and no info.
140 Approved from TSC last year.
EAD is self-filed later on Aug 14th @ NSC with USPS tracking# proof.
But EAD check cashed today from NSC (LIN#)
It's crazy. What I can say more.
Hi all : After talking to an IO, I discovered that using my name and DOB, they could only trace my application till I-140. They couldn't see any applications for I485/EAD/AP for myself and my husband. Huh.. weird.. What should I infer from this so-called drama. What should be my next move? Pls. advise.
My attorney gave me a FEDEx tracking number, which states it was recd. by j. Barrett (NSC) on 2nd July. My application was complete with all different checks and all original medicals for me and my husband.
This is ridiculous. Does it mean, NSC has lost my application (s)? I see LUD as of 8-5-07 on my approved I-140 number as per USCIS website? What does that mean? Gee. This is crazy.
Thanks if anyone can help me figure out this mystery.
goodluck folks

USCIS denied my and my family's 485 based on withdrawl of old pending 140.
How did you come to know about your denial. Did they send a denial notice after you applied for EAD. Was there any status change on the USCIS website after your 140 was revoked by employer.

Guys,
Has anyone experienced this?
EB3-I

EAD/AP RD - July 11th, 2008
EAD/AP Notice Date - July 18th, 2008
EAD/AP approved - Aug. 18th, 2008
I just received EADs for me and my spouse and the validity is only 1 year! Aren't we (people whose PDs are retrogressed) supposed to receive EADs with 2 years validity?

Hello Experts,
Little bit of background. I have been working on h1 since 2003 and applied labor in Mar 2005.
I have was able to get my application with 2007 filers. Got my 140 approved last year and ead and FP done as well. My GC sponsoring company is a desi consultancy, which is helpful to a certain extent and I have been with them since 2004.
I am in a bit of a dilemma now. The client, where I have been working for last few years, have instated a new policy in which contractors must be on W2 with the vendors. Vendor I am working with is not big and like any other consultancy (Tek, comsys), will fire if you don't have a project for 15-20 days. In the past, I wouldn't have bothered even thinking about this and moved on for another project but because of recession and difficult job market and I am contemplating this move.
After doing research, I am thinking of the following strategy.
I will transfer my h1b with the vendor and will not use EAD. Plan to work with the vendor for as long as possible and when the contract ends move back with the GC sponsoring employer. I am going with assumption that the GC sponsor will not revoke my 140 (even though it shouldn't matter as I am past 180 days with 485 and 140 is approved) and when the contract ends I have something to fall back on to. Doing that could secure me if USCIS asks EVL in future and I can simply my GC sponsoring company to show that for future employment. Also, I want to keep h1b as a way to bring my wife (if and when, with divine intervention, I get married somehow).
Do you think if this is a viable solution? Any suggestion is welcome.

The Comprehensive Immigration Reform bill introduced in the House of Representatives would revamp the existing employment-based (EB) preference system in a number of important ways: 1) Increase in EB Numbers - The number of employment-based green cards would increase from 140,000 per year to 290,000. 2) Recapture � Currently, 140,000 persons are permitted to immigrate to the U.S. each year under the EB preference system. If less than 140,000 visa numbers are given out by the end of the government�s fiscal year on September 30, the remaining numbers are essentially thrown away. As a result, in most years, 20,000 to...

Hi gurus,
I have question to you. I am July 2007 filer. My EAD and My wife EAD expiring on 09-25-2008. I applied both renewal Yesterday(06-24-2008 -90 days before).
recently My wife moved from H1B and working on EAD ( I am still working on H1B).
1. If we wont get EAD cards in time (i.e. before 09-25-2008). What will be her status after 09-25-2008 ?
2. Can she change back to H4 or can she change back to H1?
Please advice me.

I am currently in the U.S on H1b for the past 4 years. My H1b is for a computer programmer. I work my day job in that capacity. My Labor certification in under process. I have also been auditioning as an actor for Commercials and Industrial Films. It looks like I may be cast in an industrial film. My question is : If I accept the part, will this violate the terms of my H1-b ? Also, if I am approved for an EAD down the road, can I use the EAD to do acting work on the side ? Thank you for your time.

Immigration Law from Houston Immigration Lawyer - Annie Banerjee Has Just Posted the Following:
In a letter to Senator Grassley, the CIS defended their H-1B adjudication practices and their everything under the kitchen sink Request for Evidences.
The CIS is looking into revising the form I-129 to have Petitioner and beneficiary both attest that:
The beneficiary has been advised of the offsite placement and accepts the terms of the H-IB employment, including the job location and possible relocation;
Really? Does anyone working for the software industry not know that they have to work off site. These people are always traveling, the beneficiary KNOWS they have to work off site. Same with Oil Company Engineers. Its the nature of their work. Does CIS seriously think the beneficiary does not know?
2. Placement of the beneficiary offsite during the period of employment will be in compliance with the statutory and regulatory requirements of the H-IB nonimmigrant classification;
3. The beneficiary will be paid the prevailing rate of pay at any offsite
location; and,
This is in line with the question on the I-94 application on the plane, "Are you a terrorist." Has anyone ever answered yes to that question? Similarly, will anyone filing an H-1B petition ever say they will not comply with the law?
4. The work itinerary is attached.
The H-1B is given for 3 years. It is difficult to predict the itinerary for all those 3 years. If the work itinerary is for less than 3 years, then the employer has to file the whole H-1B again, with the high fees. And even if they have the work itinerary, the job may be canceled, etc. So what is the point of private employers filing job itineraries with the Government?
All of this simply penalizes the small employers who form the backbone of the American economy.

USCIS is going to issue two year EAD starting at the end of June 2008 for those AOS applicants whose cases USCIS expects to get deleyed more than a year.
"
I'm also pleased to announce that we will be extending the validity period of the employment authorization documents that we issue to individuals who are waiting adjustment of status to lawful permit residenture or in colloquial phrase, the green card.
Currently, adjustment applications are granted employment authorization documents with only a one year maximum validity. Beginning later this month, we'll start issuing these documents with a two-year validity period for aliens who are waiting adjustment of status if their application is expected to be pending for more than a year."
