My first FP was done in July 2007. I have not yet received second FP notice. Normally USCIS sends second FP notice after 15 months. Is someone else like me?

This PWD has easily become another "major" process in the very long, frustrating GC journey.
PWD-LC-I140-AOS!!!
Don't be surprised if they bring a premium processing for PWD request and charge $1000 for that.

never though i could get so much experience with neurosis (mine and everyone else's) in a such a short time...guess i should thank USCIS- and apply for EB1 as a international expert :D:p
Paskal maybe you should call up USCIS NSC and ask them the names of all their Mail room clerks. Tell them ur calling on behalf of Homeland security!:p
Then call up UPS, USPS, DHL and Fedex to get the common times when the delivery trucks stopped by NSC to drop off applications and threaten to sue them if they dont give u exact details of number of applications dropped off with each delivery. Once again tell them its a matter of national security!!
Finally create a POLL of Delivery Times v/s Mail room clerk and combine all threads. ;)

That would be incorrect "redgreen" please read the announcement once again note the words below carefully!
USCIS will accept Forms I-129F, I-131, I-140, I-360, I-485, I-765 and I-907 filed with the new “Direct Filing” location in advance of the July 30, 2007 effective date, that are otherwise properly filed.

Hi Mods, I am new to the forum so in case I asked this in the wrong section then do pardon me.
I am currently working on L1 visa and had applied for H1 visa for fiscal 2010. I did file the visa via a consultant based in ease coast. Now, i got an email 8 days back from CRIS that there was a RFE against my application.
And finally, earlier today I got another email from my consultant that my visa was denied.
My consultant says that he never received any RFE request from USCIS and all he got was a random rejection PDF from them (he in-fact says that I wasn't the only one ... he got 5 more denials today without getting the RFE)
My question to you folks is :
- Can he be lying and trying to cover-up the fact that he never bothered to respond back (even though the RFE came 2 months back)
- Can this actually happen (that RFE doesn't get delivered at all) ??
- He says he has asked the attorney to appeal further. Would that help. Also, how would I know if this guy has actually appealed or just gave another false assurance.
- Also what are my chances getting a H1B via the appeal route ?
Thanks in advance
the quota is not filled. Try looking for another job and sponsorer asap!

you will have to pay the new fee, which is $305. Do efiling, it is easy and convenient.
Thanks for the info.
Is e-filing an option for folks like me who did not submit the I-131 form while I filed I-485?
http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=e650065d85cee010VgnVCM1000000ecd190aRCR D&vgnextchannel=9059d9808bcbd010VgnVCM100000d1f1d6a1 RCRD
USCIS reminds the public that all filings submitted on or after July 30, 2007 via the electronic filing system must be submitted with payment of the new fees.
Filings made Pursuant to Visa Bulletin No. 107: As previously announced, all forms I-765 and I-131 applications based on employment-based adjustment of status applications filed pursuant to Visa Bulletin No. 107 that are submitted on or before August 17, 2007 must be filed under the fee structure in place prior to July 30, 2007. On or after July 30, 2007, those applications may not be electronically filed and must be submitted to a Service Center via regular mail or courier service.
I tried reading the above but could not conclude whether I should or not. Was this announcement valid only until 08.17.07 or forever?

No, a Canadian citizen cannot work in the US without a Visa. The options available are TN (Treaty Nafta) visa and H1-B for the average skilled worker. We (Canadians) are in the same boat with the Indians, Chinese, etc. awaiting our priority dates to become current. Mine is 01/11/02 so I have some hope that it will become current in the next year. Until then, I have to pay a premium for property taxes (no homestead exemption) on Florida's east coast.
Hopefully (wishful thinking here) CIR will move forward in the House. At the very least I would like to see family members exempt from the EB Visa count.
Cheers.

Assuming that he is not struck in the name check which is very likely if one has a very common first name or last name
True, this affects everyone really, but was just saying from what I have seen of my ROW friends. Getting green cards within 1-2 years while the bulk of us wait for 5-6+

As per my understanding, since you filed for 485 before August 17, 2007 you have to pay renewal fees for EAD/AP. ONLY if you have filed for 485 after August 17 2007 you don't have to pay renewal fees for EAD/AP.
What matters here is when you filed your 485. It does not matter when you applied for EAD/AP as these are based on your 485.
Hi Prasadn,
Thanks for the reply. That sucks if I have to pay again::((
I read somewhere that if we apply with the latest fees, we dont have to pay again.
Can any one else please confirm?
Regards

I guess you should be good with your AP . But also there was a thread about one of the IV'ians AP experience at SFO. Please read that so can understand what AP is for and when it can be used as per the IO at SFO airport
If a DUI can cause automatic rejection of I-485, will this be OK at the Port Of Entry? The answer is obvious. Should do as advised by the attorney not as experienced by others on a forum.

hi i have a question here:
suppose some x's labour PD date is 2004 August and some Y's PD date is 2006.
Y Applied I-485 on July2nd 2007 and X applied on Aug10th 2007.
so whose application processed first? is x's or Y's for final GC process.
thanks for your answers.
As per USCIS trend, Z's application would be processed first and finally A and B will get the GC.

I think it all depends on what the job qualifications required are.
For Eb2, the JOB DESCRIPTION (i.e. - not what your personal qualifications are) you generally need either a masters degree or bachelors with 5+ years experience. Please note, if you are thinking about jumping from EB3 to EB2 at the same company, without a change in job title - it will be tough to now say that your job requires the extra experience.
In addition, if you don't have a master's degree, and are relying on years of experience, you are NOT able to count experience at your current company towards that.
I know, its ridiculous, and basically discourages company loyalty.
Hope this helps
