Many qualified for EB1 need not necessarily be already in EB1.
Possible reasons are:
1. Unawareness at the time of filing (just followed what attorney said).
2. Was not in a hurry for GC, so just followed attorney.
3. Thought that EB1 might be a complicated case (even though genuinely eligible), and just filed EB2, never thought it will retrogress that bad.
4. The job requirement at that time didn't need an EB1-qualification.
You will be surprised to see how many PhD and MS candidates and researchers are in EB3.
just wondering
How gaining so much experience or education is possible in such a short amount of time?
No , I'm not jelous or anything. Please don't misunderstand.
EB1 requires very high education. Right?
just wondering. I 'm ready to work hard. Just need direction?
How people do it. Do they take a MBA/PHD?
Thanks

thanks, radhagd and md2003. yes, we've had a very long discussion about porting PD after two I-140 approved in this board. but seems nobody had this done successfully. So I wonder which way is worth to keep, EB3 with earlier PD (but my EB3 LC has not been started even recruiting processing yet) or EB2 in case I am already in 140 pending stage (in our company, to pursue EB3, I will have to cancel EB2)? any comments on this?
thanks
thanks

I submitted my wife's ead renewal app online 150+ days before it expires (i filed in April 1st week whereas expiry is in Oct 2008). I only realized my mistake after filing.
We have received a receipt from BCIS as well as an appointment for biometrics on 5/23. I have not sent any documents by mail to support the electronic filing.
I am hoping that her app will not get rejected or worse, denied.

you can expedite your AP by submitting proof of emergency situation like if someone is critically sick back in india.call USCIS and they will give you fax#.you will need to fax doctors letter and copy of AP receipt notice.it takes around 10 days for approval.

Recently, I made my own PP photos using http://www.epassportphoto.com/
This is a great service - It creates a jpeg file from a picture that you upload, and you can choose the "free" option in which you can save the jpeg file with 4-6 pictures in one frame (A 4" x 6" photo can yield 6 pp photos of 2" x 2"), and take it to Walgreens/Costco/Kinkos for a printout for $0.25 each. Otherwise you pay about $8-$12 for 2 photos at the same stores!!
For a family of 4, this equates to savings of ~ $40!!!
The site has all the tools for meeting various types of visa/pp/etc photo requirements for various countries.
Most WOLF camera and RITZ camera stores do the same thing for free. I have done this many times. Use a good digital camera and take the pics in memory stick or USB and they crop the photo to the right passport specifications. All you pay for is the print which is $0.25 or less.
Its good to know we have an online option as well. Thanks for the info hinvin66.

Dear All ,
I recently got my I-140 approved, got our(me and spouse) EAD and AP too.Now what I am wondering is that
1.Am I still on H1 status or the status now becomes EAD ?
you are still on H1-B, EAD approval doesn't invlidate your H1-B status
2. If my H1 still holds good then should I go back to India to get my fresh H1 stamping as it will expire november next year or should I go for one year H1 extensions(as I heard from friends ) till I get the GC ?
you need not go to India to get your H1 extension stamping you can as well consider Canada, Mexico, Bahamas etc. you just need to cross the borders
3. Is there any stipulated time limit within which my wife has to apply for her SSN( we have not yet applied for it. )
There is no time line, however the sooner the better for many known reasons like Job, taxes, credit history to name a few
4. My passport is going to expire on December next year. Do I need to go to India for renewal or it can be done from here itself. If it can be done from here itself then when is the earliest to start that process ?( I will be happy if u could send some links that will guide me ).
again you can send your original Passport along with application and required documents to nearest Indian Embassy (make sure to check the nearest Indian Embassy facilitates Passport renewals before you send in your docs) also you can attend in person which most folks prefer
Thank you very much in advance.

Your extension may be become invalid. We use I94 number in the extension application form. when you get extension approval you have the extended I94 for the same number.
If you have traveled you have different i94 from the recent travel and different one in extension.
Do you have any source on this....I also had to amend my H1B last month. Its done without any issues..

It takes courage to stand with fliers in your hand in the middle of a crowd, trying to hand out to people and in return get a look from them as if they are saying we are not buying whatever you are selling.
But three of our members had courage to face that looks and ignore the humiliation of being ignored by most people. These people are Raj , Murali and Kumar.
In spite of several people residing in tri state area , only four (including myself) volunteers showed up to distribute fliers at the India day parade. In the eyes of IV and all those who are living far enough to participate in our effort, these people are true heroes.
Interestingly, we met couple of people at the parade who claimed to be member of IV. What does being a member of IV means? Unless you actively participate, you are not a real member.
Anyways, the crowd at the parade was good and our team did best they could do and were able to distribute around 500 fliers. I fully agree that we could have done more and with more enthusiasm had our number were greater. But in spite of the odds, the spirits remained high.
I thank again to Raj , Murali and Kumar for sticking together for our cause. It is the people like you who will make the change happen.
May god bless you!
Thanks
Sanjeev

I completed the landing process in mid-Dec. We entered Canada by road. One advice - do not complete any of the forms, the Imm officer would do it in your presence. In our case, there were no issues/ questions related to the fact that we were providing a friend's address for mailing the PR card. We received the cards two days ago.
Do make sure you have the required docs to return to the US! You are right, the immigration processes are simpler and more straightforward in Canada, compared to those in the US.
I am planning to drive to Canada. I have the paperwork Canadian embassy sent me.
I'll fill this paperwork and the list of items to be brought in later. Possibly answer
any questions the officials at the POE ask. Anything else at POE that I need to do?
After passing POE into Canada, possibly into a city, do I need to register at any office saying I landed? I am planning to come back very next day after landing.
This going back and forth the POE to get Canadian PR status seems to be way too easy for immigration ;). Hence my concern.
Please advice.

My employer asked me to send my 485 application directly to NSC instead of attorney Since there was a wide spread rumor last month( june ) end that USCIS going to accept the applications that are going reach them only on July 2nd and I did exactly the same thing. NSC received my application by July 2 at 7:30am.
I properly signed my set of applications (485,765,131,134,325a,g28) and my wife did the same with her set.
I didn't give attorney info on any of the applications except on G-28 FORM.
BUT there is no attorney signature on G-28 FORM since I filed on my own and Is going to create any problem, I mean is there any possibility that USCIS GOING to reject My application? Your help greatly appreciated.

If you have completed your 180 days with your 'parent' company.. then you are safe!
It's safer to get H1 transfer as mentioned by seltzer above
Your new company should be able to take care of AOS transfer for you which means change of representation - i.e. a new attorney representing your AOS case now AND change of job!
I'm going through that process right now!
Even though it cost you, I would prefer to keep one's own attorney.
If not, you are repeating the same old story. What if you plan to move from this second employer...
So, please find your own attorney. All that you need from new employer is offer letter and he is filing h1b with the same job title.
Good luck.

Are you sure about that? Can you give your source that says
"You have to inform them of every small move even after citizenship is approved".
If you can support your post by citing a valid source then its fine, otherwise stop shooting off your hips please.
yes, u need to inform them of every small move u make, all ur life. this holds true even after ur us citizenship is approved.

We have a wealth of information from A to Z on US Immigration, why dont we ourselves write articles and editorials and get them published in the News Papers, Journals, etc?
Why are we waiting for some one to come to us and take information to write articles on us. Does Newspapers check the background of authors to verify if they are citizens/non-citizens/green card holders/ H1B's. What all matters to them is quality and authenticity of the articles.
Do you folks think this a good option to pursue?

Yes that is true, you have to show your passport and I-94 and EAD
you should be fine if they ask about expired I-94 (with stamp) as you have an extension till 2007.
so to answer your question show H1 extension if they ask.
hope this helps.
Good Luck :)
Actually I got H4 extension till Oct 1st 2007. Then H1B kicked in from same date(Oct 1st) until 2010, so new I-94 is with the current H1B...
Since I applied in July for AOS and got I-485 receipts in September, I think it doesn't matter if i am on H1 or H4 after that, since my status would be "Adjustment of status" right?,,not sure
So you think the H4 extension and the I-485 receipts would do? Or should I just show them the H1B, and tell them I plan to use EAD?
Thanks..!
