Congratulations to all IV members for being able to apply for I-485. This is GREAT news. Please please apply for your I-485 at the earliest. It would be best if your application reaches USCIS in the week of 2nd July. Here is the link to July Visa Bulletin:
http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/bulletin/bulletin_3258.html
Remember that you have to be in the country to apply for I-485. We may soon have lawyer�s information on our website to answer your questions in real time. Not sure till the time we get confirmation from the attorney but IV is working on this and may post this information soon.
This is GREAT development!!!!

What I meant to say, you�ll succeed if you have the capability (with your professional knowledge, experience and skills) in your professional filed but definitely not with USCIS.
I can say, USCIS is a great leveler in this aspect. Everybody from PhD to Programmer is same in front of USCIS. All have to wait 10+ yrs with mental tension and anxiety, no matter what your caliber is and how successful you are in your profession.
Don�t get me wrong here. I also had to suffer for visa stamping, renewals, I-94 issues, PA etc in US Visa processing (nothing sever though). At the 5th yr of H1-B, I just decided.. to hell with that.....
I don't know about you guys, but, I would be heart patient with that kind of anxiety in another 5 yrs of GC process �. Really need a lion's heart to pursue US GC now days
i completely agree with u.......waiting 10-12 years for a plastic card keeping everything on hold and renewing EAD,AP every other year.......h1b stamping........all that paperowork.......working ur a** out for the same employer for xx years........keeping track of excruciatingly slow movement of PDs in monthly bulletin.........feel like i am already in ICU man.........is this a life?????

I had FREE company attorney but decided to file 485 etc. myself & it was so much better. You can easily do 140-485 etc yourself. Call me & I will tell you.
If at all use an attorney for PERM. In my situation, even that was screwed up & I had to do that myself.
It is high time, all of us capable of handling complex viral equations, do this simple job , spread the knowledge , save $$$ & contribute some savings to IV
Best wishes

Air France still does not get it. neither do other euro nations, Nor does Australia.
They are now dealing with a entirely different generation of Asians who do not care if they were once a developed nation or that they can manufacture aircrafts.
The reply is still suggestive of they taking care of the passengers and handling the situation well. No, they did not.
A technical aircraft problem is something that every airline faces everyday.
Air France not having a plan to care of non-american or non-eurpoean indians is completely their fault and outright racist. and that too a flight which is flying to India?
Did they expect everyone on the flight to be from a EU or North American nation, and that they will not require transit visas.
No, they simply did not care. They just did not make arrangement for Indian residents and hid behind the transit visa excuse.
If they wanted, they could have arranged for a Airport Transit visa for eveyone who did not have one.
But no, they assumed that regardless of how we treat them, an indian is going to fly Air France again if that is the cheapest option.
Funny is, that might be true, but that demographics is changing so fast that they better keep not caring, cos Indians will not fly with them anyways.

Hi,
I have worked with these lawyers. I had the best experience. They were always on top of everything.
www.gowda.com
:)
Guys,
Wanted to started this thread to get reviews on different law firms
I can understand the quality and committment of lawyers can make a huge difference especially in this unprecendented situation where all EB categories are made current now and now there is a rumour that it would be retrogressed back probably sometime next week with a new visa bulletin.
A lot of lawyers who are really committed and sincere to their client's clause: Getting them Green Card, are working overnight and over the weekend also so that their client can file I-485 ASAP and on the other hand few law firms are acting as slackers and not even responding to their client's emails.
Anyway, I am interested in knowing everyone's experience ( good or bad ) with law-firms and their recommendation.
My Own Case:-> I work for a multibillion dollar telecom company and joined this company almost 15 mos ago with a promise that they would start my GC immediately. Till Now, they have not yet file my labor. Their lawfirm is Larrabee http://www.larrabee.com/ in sanDiego. I don't have much experience with them as my application is still in my company's internal queue but based on the basis of my little experience, I would certainly not recommend them
Thanks

My I-140 was filed on July 6 and arrives at USCIS on July 9.
The check was cashed on July 12 and I was able to get the receipt number. BUT BY NOW I HAVE NOT RECEIVE THE RECEIPT. It seems many people are in the same boat. What we can do about it?
Anybody knows how many days it would take between they cash the check and mail out the receipt? What address do they use?
Did u get the receipt number on the back of the cheque or did u call USCIS and get it ???

IV Core has mentionned many times that we need to educate the public.
I believe one of the rally attendees was interviewd by NPR, and he was informed his story will be featured on NPR in the near future. NPR is listened to by people who are highly educated and rational. They will surely understand the plight of legal immigrants. While piece meal legislation is being introduced in Congress, we need to be as much visible as posible.
Outside of the immigrant community (mainly lawyers and legal immigrants), no one knows what legal immigrants are up against.
Dollars talk. If there is enough money for advertisements as many have suggested on this forum, people will start asking questions when they see or hear those ads. And when people ask questions, they will receive the information. Once they know about the hurdles we face, they might put some pressure on Congress to Act. Pressure put on Congress by US citizens will carry a lot of weight.

I am in a lot of stress. Please help out if possible.
Six years on my H1B expire in April 2008. I just got laid off from company A. My last day of work will be May 31st. I have LC and I-140 approved with company A.
If I join company B starting June, and transfer my H1B to B, can it extend my H1B beyond 6 years based on the approved I-140 I had with company A? If yes, will it be for one year or three years?
Gurus please help. I will be grateful.
Thanks

Welcome back :)
First off it is quite frustrating with people not participating and not putting their money where their mouth is. However, on a constructive note, screaming at people for behaving the way they are behaving rarely gets them to meekly surrender and start doing the right thing. Whether people do it out of their own free will or after persuasion, it take courage for people to participate. What works is to look at the problem and not to personalize the issue. So poor participation is the issue. If you are consistently not getting enough people to attend then it makes sense to delay the frequency of the meetings as one option. The other option is to call people and ask why they were unable to attend and give them a chance to come for the next meeting. Maybe the projection of rounding up x people was based on poor assumptions. So setting realistic expectations and then building momentum from there is the key. This is a dry tough fight. We need to set up tangible goals which break the vision down yet show the grassroot level people how the baby steps will lead to success. Most people in my opinion, back off because they do not see a realistic connection between the baby steps and the final vision. I think if we treat this like a challenge and try to understand the underlying problems, this movement will have a better chance at success. Regards, JH
P.S. My apologies for offering unsolicited advice. Please feel free to ignore. and understand that my intentions are good.

The US Immigration Law is a nightmare.
Couple of years ago, I migrated to Australia.
The Australian laws are very clean and straight forward. There is only one application form with some very simple question and detailed instructions. Just fill up the form, enclose the necessary documents and fees. That's it. You are done. In due time they will let you know "YES" or "NO".
There is no need to feed fat-belly hungry sharks called "Immigration Attorneys" (of course there are exceptions).
Once your case is approved, you and your family are eligible for the all the rights (except Vioting Power) enjoyed by any Australian Citizen.
Once accepted, there is no official discrimination.
Here the US Government cries about anti-discrimination, human rights etc, but those are only eye-wash. They should take lessons from the Australians.

Call the 1-800 number in the approval notice and select the options 1->7->4->3 and they will be able to help check the status of the application. You need the receipt no when you call them
Did just that. I believe it is approved. Will wait for it in the mail now.

PD, I don't agree with the phrasing of the new Labor Cert clause. That is not how I read Frist's bill. Did you make up the new labor cert clause yourself?
Will advanced degree holder need labor certification?
I think they will. Here is how the new labor certification clause will read:
So labor certification is required for advanced degree holder in STEM with 3 years of US experience prior to applying will be treated as special a case.
Also, this clause says that the degree has to be from a US university. I think Attorney Mathew Oh is wrong in saying that graduate degree holders in STEM from foreign universities can apply too.
