I broke my politeness today.
My case was filed in Nebarska then tranferred to Texas then as soon as the priority date became current, last month, it was transferred to California.
I talked yesterday to customer service and it by chance got transferred to California Service Center where the officer told me that my case was transferred back to Texas Service Center on August 14, 2008. She also told me to call TSC to confirm it.
I called today the National Customer Service Center (NCSC) to confirm it and the lady tells me that the case is still in California and she has no more infomation about it. I told her about my call yesterday.
Lady: How could you have ever called CSC because their phone numbers are not public
Me: I called the same number and for some reason it got transferred to CSC.
Lady: Then you have already been told that your case has been transferred back on Aug 14, what do you need now ?
Me: The website does not show that. Plus the officer yesterday asked me to confirm it which you are not doing, you are just repeating my words about my conversation. There are so many inconsitencies . You told me just now that my case is still in California.
Lady: Can you please hold for a moment.
After hold:
Lady: I just talked to my supervisor, if the website says it is in California then it is California. Is there anything else I can help you with ?
Me: I do not understand "To speed up processing " clause in the reason to transfer it to california. It has been transferred from the center which is processing 485 applications to the center which is not processing applications. So the clause "To speed up processing" is so inconsistent.
Lady: Sir, we cannot tell you the reason why do we transfers
Me: But you have already told me the reason in the written notice as "To speed up processing"
Lady: It is not "To speed up processing " it is "for processing". Is there anything else that I can help you with ?
Me: I hang up the phone.

Does it mean that if you get a receipt number in the case of an H1 transfer your case would definitely be approved?? i.e. Receipt number = Transfer approval?? :confused: Anybody familiar with the transfer process should please enlighten.
It seems you can start working as soon as the application is sent out. This was the advice given to my firend by his attorney.
He consulted some other lawyers. They say that it is safe to get the receipt number before starting to work.
So to be on the most safe side, wait until you get the receipt number.
But many people do start soon after sending the transfer petition...I know people who have done that. My friend is also not going to wait for the receipt as he has to join immediately.

Hello Atul
I agree only crying baby gets milk.
But only lucky applicants get green card :). Its not based on eligibility alone.
Now about protests and demonstrations. I dont think it will work in the US for a myriad of reasons.
I think every year about 30K or more people are coming from India
on H1B. I think half of them apply for GC. At least 200K Indian nationals
alone waiting in the line for GC. Why IV has only 5k? We should have atlease 50K members.
A working plan would be get atleast 100K people to our organization and have everybody contribute $100. That would give us $10Million. We can hire top people and companies to get it done. And donate big funds to these politician.
What I told is just a dream. Most of us here are free riders. In my company there are 5 people who are affected. I'm the only who checks regulary this site. I have to tell them again and again and again to send a fax or donate.
So what to do?
thanks
babu
I agree and I am also fully aware of the numbers, but just don't limit it to we Indians, every immigrant irrespective of origin is impacted. I hate to call it a donation, I rather say everybody contribute as much as possible. $100 is nothing compared to immigration fee and extortion by attorneys and consulting companies.
Somebody has to come forward and show leadership. Just sitting and waiting for every month Visa Bulletin is not going to take us anyware.

Hi Experts,
Need inputs on following scenarios.
I have approved I-140 with Company A. I am on H1 currently, 7th year. My extension is due on April 2011.
Scenario 1: If H1 extension gets denied, can I move to H4 (my wife is on h1) and then search for a job and convert from H4 to H1 using approved I-140 from company A?
Scenario 2: If I move to Company B, and do not start GC there, after 3 years, can I get 3 years extension based on approved I-140 from company A?
Scenario 3: If I move to Company B, after some time, can I move to company C using I-140 from company A?
Given the uncertainty of h1 approvals these days, please suggest favorable scenarios in the cases above.
Thanks

All,
Just curious to know how will a FP notice help. If you get an FP notice how useful is that, its just one process. Or am I missing something. I did receive ASC notice from TCS, I think its moved from NSC to TSC (not really following what is going on, lawyer not giving information). Should I be happy?! I have not received any AP or EAD notice.

CubedFlash,
Maybe you can give me my answer. I imported a file from Swift 3D, published, F12 to view, and then went control enter to view the size. After almost choking when I saw the size it added to my SWF (255K for a 7 letter word, spinning) I decided immediatley that was intolerable to my movie size requirements, and deleted the entire Swift 3D animation from my Movie. Took it out of the frames, the library, every place imaginable. And I was floored to find what it did to my Fla. It ruined it. My Fla went from 605K to 8.9 MEG. For all the various purposes of how I use an Fla, it is ruined. The ghost of that Swift 3D stays with my Fla even today. Like a cancer, cannot get rid of it. Can you tell me how to get it out so I can restore my Fla?
Sincere Regards,
pj

DOS tried to update the system reflecting a big jump in the visa dates for May. The system was unused to any changes lately - leave aside such large forward movements - and as a result it crashed.
DOS managed to recover the system by replacing all date fields with character fields. The rumor is that the value for all those character fields is now "C", whatever that means.
Nice one, although you are 2 days too late with your "special" news. :D

its back to the same question: IS MBA worth the time and money!
facing stagnation ..in our eternal wait for GC...what are the risks of not pursuing an MBA in you want to further or change ur career later on!
its not all bad to pursue PT..provided u make the right concentration choice!
There are success and failues in Pt programs! My friend got his MBA (PT) from UIC ..nowhere in any list..;-)...and landed a job as a director of IT for a consulting firm...his benefits and all tops 180K..now..its up to you to figure out how big a paycheck makes you a happy man.;-)
There will always be the traditionalists who believe Old school MBA is the best!..but..how many desis have the luxury of stopping work and going FT.
both arguments are valid....but to succeed in PT..go by ur gut ..
duniya ..hope par chalithi hai.;)

I wish I had a friend like you who cares so much about his friend's immigration. I thiink you should ask your friend to join Immigrationvoice and ask the question himself. If you are your friend and want to hide yourself, may I ask why are you so scared of being annonymous.
NO he is talking about himself.....
Am i Right Friend? :D

Sorry to hear that !!
Medical records are initial evidence. what it means is, that you must submit the medical records with the 485.
If you can attach some report from doc saying that it is curable or is of less percentage and blah blah blah .... as said earlier you can send in the clear report later.
hope you get out of this soon!!!
Just seek legal opinion and second medical opinion too.
