I believe they would process the application within 15 days. It doesnt necessarily have to be an approval or denial, they can even send a RFE.
Once you respond to the RFE, its not necessary that they have to process your case with in 15 days.
TRUE.
It is 15 days (not business) including week ends.
Here are some hidden facts:
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day USCIS receives application.
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day USCIS sends a NOTIFICATION (Yes !!!)
* 15 days window starts ONLY when you see an LUD change with a description "Request for Premimum Processing" updated in USCIS system.
* When there is an RFE, the 15 days window clock STOPS.
while( case != approved && case != denied )
{
* RFE is issued
***** 15 days clock now is reset to 0 *****
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day USCIS receives RFE Response.
* 15 days window DOES NOT start from the day case status says "RFE Response received".
* 15 days window starts ONLY when you see an LUD change with a description "Case Resumed" updated in USCIS system.

Your lawyer is correct and so you are fine. There is no requirement that 140 has to be complete to apply for 485 even in substitution cases. People just choose to do it that way as substitution is slightly risky.
However, as long as you have a solid case, there is nothing to worry.

Hi!
My H1B was filed on April 1st 2007 at Vermont Service Center while i was in India and got selected in the lottery. I came to US on May 13th on H4 visa (I 94 valid till July 18, 2008) and still my papers were under process.
On June 1st, 2007 the approval notice was sent to my employer.
Oct 1st, 2007 they applied for my change of status and on 19th it was returned back as a check for 500$ was not included.
Kindly let me know if we could go for a H1B Transfer and change of status simultaneously with a new employer.
Within what time line i need to apply for the same.
Thanks,
SV

there is another LUD on my 485 today, continuosly from the last 4 working days Dec6th,7th,10th and today(11th)..not sure what's going on...:confused:
It could be anything. Did you get your biometrics taken recently? People normaly would get updates after that. The first meaningful update would be something like "On xxxxx we have ordered your (green) card production". If you got that, you know you got your green card. But your PD is late than current processing date, they wouldn't adjudicate your case, even your name check is cleared. Is your name check cleared?

Would going to Canada and re-entering without going for visa stamping count as lawful entry??
Yes (assuming you stayed in Canada for less than 2 weeks or whatever is that number).
Or one has to go and get the visa stamped to qualify as lawful entry??
Also when you go to Canada and come back Without VISA stamping, he gets the same I-94 or different I-94??
Thanks.
If you did not submit your old I-94 at the time of entering canada, then you keep the same I-94. In fact, if you do not have a valid visa stamp (i.e., you are entering using visa revalidation), then it is best not to submit your current I-94.

Hi Experts,
On July 8th I filed my EAD. I never got any Finger Print Appointment from USCIS. I have been constantly trying to reach them about my FP appointment. But, on Sep 20TH I got a notice saying my petition has been denied because I have not appeared for my FP on Aug 3rd.
They asked me to file a motion, my confusion is should I file a motion or should I reapply. Which one makes it easy and fast to get my EAD ASAP.
Thanks,

The Original Post said he was contracting for Federal Govt. It is possible to contract with most Depts on H-b, EAD , GC regardless of your immigration status.
It is not true, that it is not possible to work in Fed Govt on H1 or EAD. Hundreds of contractors work for the Federal govt in DC area who are on H1-Bs.

Hi Guys,
I just learnt about the news in Business week on starting discussions for increasing Visa Numbers to help alleviate our pain.
Skilled Workers May See Green-Card Surge (Link:
http://www.businessweek.com/bwdaily/dnflash/content/jul2007/db20070718_068854.htm)
With this in mind I was wondering whether we can compile list of victims of Immigration system based on state and send it to each senator asking for help in moving Skill bill and other pro-immigration reforms cleared.
We can also indicate some on the main issues we are facing as a summary to each senator to make the people understand what kind of roller coaster our lives are
Information that can be captured to indicate the wait time and different ways we are affected.
Name, State, PD, approx Expected approval date (with approx 750000 thousand applications in July) and what effect this would cause on our lives
A) Family torn apart (kids growing older than 21, etc)
B) Cannot live the American dream by excelling in work to higher position and benefits for average 5 - 10 years - cannot change jobs or responsibilities
C) Kids (mostly citizens of US) deprived of basic luxuries because parents cannot buy houses and cannot send them to private schools because of uncertainty in visa status. Most of them manage in rental homes and feel guilty for not able to provide the best for those innocent kids (US citizens)
D) With this long waits, Could not purse higher education because of 6 years limit on H1 and no option to change employer after 6th year because of pending application.
E) Most immigrants are eagerly waiting to start their businesses but are restricted because of visa status and the dream remains dream for most of them because of timing in market and personal life.
F) Some of them are abused by employers who take advantage of the loop holes in the immigration system and long waiting times.
G) Lose of revenue, most of the spouses are well educated and are not able to work because of H1 quota limits or no EAD and it takes on an average 3 -5 years before you get your EAD.
More can be added based on others experiences.
It would be great to get some information about Taxes paid (percentage) by immigrants,
Number of businesses opened etc to make the case stronger.

The most important point to be noted here is:
The job / position should demand a person with Master degree or a Bachelor's degree with more than 5 yrs experience in order to quality for EB2.
Not just having a Master degree or Bachelor's plus 5 yrs experience is gonna help.
So there are a lot of things to be looked at else u will be denied a EB2 labor.

PD isn't current, but just check i-485 online status, showing "Document production or Oath Ceremony" (i.e., the last cycle).
There was indeed a soft LUD in June this year. After that nothing much else. Is there sth good coming along my way?
Appreciate if anyone here can share his/her thoughts/comments.

I am in a worst scenario , just changed a job couple of months ago. I have labor and I-140 approved from Company A. I have even paid $6000 to company A to sponsor my GC and $5500 for a visa transfer. After joining company B i didn't start labor again. Begging Company A to give an employement letter , they have even cancelled my H1b visa so I can't join them back unless i pay H1b visa transfer fee and a pay-cut. Wondering if it is even worth it ?

Hi, I was hired 6 months ago as an Electrical Engineer and I am now preparing to apply for GC thru company Sponsorship. I have MS + 2 years and the position requires BS+7.
1. Am I qualified for EB2?
2. Which level do I fall under? Do you think the figures at the link below more or less right for privailing wage?

How come MS + 2 = BS + 7...?

After 4.5 years, you can file for Naturalization. You may want to keep a tab on which companies you worked for, period, pay etc starting from the day you entered in USA, keep copies of all previous W2 in safe place. Also, prepare a spreadsheet of when you were out of the country starting from the day you entered here. All the above will be required while filling up forms for naturalization.
Visit other forums/threads to see what is required and prepare for it. you have long time to go though.
Good luck.

Hi
I planning to use AC 21 from Next week, I plan to call my parents in July 2008, What should I mention as my Immigration Status in Invitation letter.
As I will not be on H1B and neither I have Green Card ?
I talked to lot of people about using AC21, nobody is clear.
Since you confirmly mentioned that you'll invoke AC21 next week, could you inform us as you proceed further in this process. Please remember you are helping the whole community.
PS: Sorry I could not answer your question.
