Thanks for sending the information..and one more thing is there any road test?
Just ask yourself some questions & read some IMP information before apply for DL in USA.
1) You said you have International DL.
Do you know the driving…?
How confident are you in driving…?
Apologies for asking this question to you. Because one of my friend’s family had a bad experience with International DL. My friend wife brought International DL and went to DMV in Colorado and the Colorado state people issue the DL without having Road Test. They just took Paper Test. But she doesn’t know how to drive the car. And when she learn driving in Wal-Mart parking lot she met with the accident (Thank god no human effected in that accident. just $2000 for repairs)
2) Are you willing to spend at least 3 hours driving classes from Driving School…?
Better to spend some $$$ on Driving school, Even you are perfect in driving in your country.
3) Are you looking for MVA who do not offer Road Test on International DL…?
Do not consider the people advices like “Go there…MVA people kind of liberal in some Driving mistakes”. You know…DL is not a Green Card or some immigration benefit that you should get it immediately. You should at least 99.99% perfect in driving particularly in Highway in USA. Otherwise you and other people will be in big jeopardy while you drive the car.
Hope this gives you a better picture on DL in USA.

A small amendment for this bill could make everyone including high skilled and low skilled happy.

Humor sense sometimes becomes sore if used in the wrond place my friend. If you feel the opinion was irrational pls state your arguement against it rather than posting a mocking comment.

Hello fellow IV members,
I am hoping to port to a new job using AC21. I contacted my attorney with various questions about the process, but she told me that she can not respond to my questions because she represents me as well as the current company I work for. For those of you who are looking to port or have already done so, did you face a similar situation - where your attorney could not advise and assist you through the process of porting? How did you resolve this situation? Did you have to find another attorney to help you with porting to a new job?
Thanks for your help.
What kind of help are you looking for?? Its all in the IV forums about AC21... You need nothing... If you think your employer may revoke your approved I-140.. then you need to inform USCIS of your using AC21 to do a job change... If your I-140 is not approved yet.. you need to wait...
All the needed details would be in AC21 threads...

Not that this should trump any of the above answers coz there could be context behind these that I don't understand. I had asked these same questions to Prashanthi Reddy, the lawyer who volunteers here at IV.
Can one apply for an EAD while they are out of the country?-NO
Can one travel when AP is pending?-YES AS LONG AS THIS IS AN EMPLOYMENT BASED CASE AND YOU CAN COME BACK TO DO BIOMETRICS WHEN NECESSARY

I got mine using EAD last year at Baytown, TX - I would say, it is one of the coolest DPS in Houston. All they need is your EAD and old license.
The license would state that you are a temporary visitor and your status expires the day your EAD expires. Around the EAd expiry time, you get a notice that your drivers license will be invalid if you do not update the DPS with your new status information.
I got greened in September, but still using the same old license as it is valid till September 2011.

We got an RFE on my wife's I-485 requesting for copy of marriage certificate. Our priority date is August 2005. ND is September 05, 2007.
Anyone else in the same boat? Does this mean USCIS has began processing the 2005 apps?
Not really. There appears to be no orderly fashion. My PD is June 2007 EB2. I got an RFE on My I 485 in May 2008.

Yes they need proof of your being able to get back to USA. At my time, I didn't had EAD or AP in-hand.
You can use private company as mentioned below. As far as I know the company I contacted was based in DC and they said they only process for US citizens. So I had to do on my own thru Chicago consulate office of Germany.
All you need is proof that you shall get entry back in USA.
I got my German visa through www.visanetwork.com
They take some fee but would get Visa for you. They make sure all your papers are OK and would tell you what to do.

I have been trying hard to get an answer for this question without any luck. My corporate attorney doesn't seem to have the slightest inclination on this subject. I would really appreciate responses.
My case details:
Visa on the passport up until Feb 2009
6 year term ending on Feb 2010
Date on I94 in passport is Feb 2010
I140/I485 concurrently applied on July 07
Currently have EB3 I-140 filed based on Substitute Labor at NSC.
Questions -
1. If my I-140 case gets picked up AFTER Feb 2009 (less than 365 days of H1 6 year term ending) and is denied (God forbid!), will I be eligible to file for a post 6 year H1 extension? Since this is Labor Sub, the labor doesn't have my name on it.
No. once the I-140 goes, its the end of that GC process, you will need to restart from LC stage. The LC would also be effectively gone at that point.
2. If yes for (1), will I be eligible for 1 year or 3 years H1 extension?
If its denied, you can file an MTR/appeal and file for an H1 extension. File the extension in premium processing, and the extension will come through before your MTR is processed and will be for one year. you need to be at the stage where you can file the extension (within 6 months of expiry of current H1)
3. Can I file for a new PERM at that time and get an extension based on that?
Your PERM PD will need to be 365 days old. Meaning you will need to start the PERM process atleast 16-14 months before the end of your H1. The other hope is that before Feb 2010 your PERM comes through and also your I-140 gets approved (so you can get 3 year extensions if your are from a retrogressed country and 1 if you are not)
4. Do I need to refile I-485?
If that I-140 is denied, the I-485 automatically goes. So you'll need to restart from PERM, I-140, then file a I-485; its a complete restart of the GC. Your PD will be the new date, you cant recapture the old one if your I-140 is not approved.

Donno what to experiment on this market...wether to try in related techologies or WAIT?
Wait for what? You are technically out of status being unemployed for 4 weeks. Talk to an immigration attorney to find out what your choices are.

E filed both myself and spouse application 157 days before expiry of EAD. Received Receipt numbers immediately, since i e-filed. i did send in the documentary evidence supporting the case also.
Also received FP request, which i had to re-schedule twice(once for visit abroad, second on missing app. due to late arrival of notice). Finally got FP completed on third try.
However, i received email stating that an RFE has been send for both our applications. Still awaiting for the paper document.
Does this mean the application was accepted? Or Should i e-file once again instead of waiting on the outcome of this application as i am already a month late to expiration of EAD?
*********
RFE asked me to clarify my intend for applying for EAD (replacement or renewal). I replied that i had asked for renewal and that i was not aware of any limit on the date.
===================Update=====================
EAD Card recieved with 1 year extension from date of expiry of previous EAD.

If your husband is working for one of the infamous desi outfits where bench means no salary, then I'd suggest that you avoid travelling since you may be asked to produce a paystub on return.
OTOH, if your husband is working for a legitimate consulting company that pays him even when he is not billable to a client, then you have nothing to fear about.
huh? I thought being employed at all times was an H-1B requirement and not an AOS requirement.
OP hasn't made it clear whether he is still on H-1B or just AOS/EAD.

What on earth makes you legal to work with an expired Visa?
Expired visa stamp. His H1B approval petition with a new I-194 at the bottom provides his work authorization.
To answer your question, since you will need to get a visa stamp in India, it is better to check with the french consulate, as to whether you need one. Typically, the US visa stamp on the passport that has not expired is usually sufficient.

Background: Rep. Ed Royce was on C-Span on Saturday July 8, 2006 to promote HR 4437. Here is the question I asked and his verbatim response.
Question: My question is on legal immigrants like myself who have been waiting in line for over ten years to get a green card. I see nothing in the House passed bill HR 4437 to support our case. What are you doing to move us unto a fast track and resolve the broken legal immigration process?
Answer: Illegal immigration is very unfair to people who wait in the queue in order to come to the United States. And frankly, all of these illegal immigrations is putting enormous strain on USCIS and other gevernment agencies. If we can secure the border through the legislation that I talked about then I think we'll take a lot of the strain off USCIS. And frankly, it will make the system fairer for those who have waited in line or are waiting in line to come to the united States the right way which is to come the legal way.
Comment: Unfortunately there was no room for a rebuttal. I would have pointed out to him that it is illogical to think that illegal immigration puts any strain on USCIS since USCIS only process legal immigration. Go figure!

A1. Yes, they will interview you together.
A2. It is NOT advisable to take the immigration attorney with you IF your case is clear, i.e. no out of status etc. When we went for the interview, the officer clearly told us that you did good by not having an attorney - they get annoyed by them :). As soon as he realized that we didn't have anybody representing us, he was way more relaxed than with other people who had representation.
A3. Yes, they can and will approve on the spot if they are satisfied with your answers!
A4. Yes, they can stamp the passport if they approve it - in my case, they approved it but couldn't stamp the passport because my PD was not current. He said, you will get the card as soon as your PD becomes current.
Just relax and take all the necessary documentation with you - and be absolutely confident in your answers. Oh, and btw, I was also promoted when we went for the interview and that doesn't make any difference - as long as you are employed (same company is better).
Hope this helps.
Hello Everybody,
My wife & I have our 485 interviews in January. Any advice is appreciated. Mine is a EB (EB- 2) petition. Our PD is April 2006. We filed for 485's in July 2007 and our 485's were transferred to National Benefits Center in 2008. I was promoted hence my title is different now from what was filed on the Labor application and job duties only changed a little bit. My petitioner is the same,
Couple of questions -
Will they interview my wife & I together ?
Is it advisable to take the immigration attorney with us for the interview.?
Can the IO approve the case on the spot.?
Can IO stamp the passport since my PD is current.?
If somebody can direct me to any recent experiences for folks who did have interviews - that would be really helpful.
Thanks!
Ritesh

You are in same situation as me as long your job duties for the new position are 50% different from old position you should be ok
Thats awesome! so , whats the procedure ivolved?
UPDATE : here is the reply from my attorney
"You cannot just move your catagory from EB-3 to EB-2 by your compay's promotion. You will have to go
through the whole process again. Also, the experience you gained from the same employer who sponsor your
green card normally cannot be used (counted). "
I guess I have to continue "RamBhajan" in the same EB3 for another infinity years!
