excellent.. if this happens!!!!

The green side of the story is, USCIS will try to attract new applications. For this DOS need to move the dates further.
OR
Introduce a new process of filing 485 for administrative processing (which is in talks) even before your PD is current as per visa bulletin as soon as 140 approval.

I see this good for people waiting to file for 485.

Okay...i will try my best to keep this thread on top...

This thread has to stay on top

Good job cagedcactus.
As I said it was work of a fellow member. But I dont see why you cant use the same letter. If you think this is a good format, please go ahead and use it.
thanks.....

Guys, sorry I do not understand the numbers very well. Assuming the same amount of spillover numbers for 2011, what will be the status of EB2 by December-2011??


Thanks,
Prasad.

Probably around April 2007. I was hoping it will clear till July 2007 but does not look like

Congrats :)

Abhjitp thanks for your reply.

Yahoooooooooooooo......We (Me and my wife) received welcome notice today . Our 485 is approved on 25 th March.

no updates online just received postal mail from USCIS today .

I guess end of long wait , been in country from 2001 .

I wish you all the best and hang in there if your PD is current you can expect the notice any time so keep checking your postal mail box .

FYI - I dont know if my back ground check is clear or not , I guess it is .

You probably know what you are getting, but there are others who believe all the lies that FOX spreads - don't always look through the prism of your problems...

At least on the other news outlets, they bring 2 sides of opinions, unlike FOX - which only shows one side of the issues 25% of the time, and the host spews his/her talking points for the rest of the 75% of the show!

Having said that, I would much prefer for the news outlets (ABC, CNN, NBC, CBS, NPR ..) to not only give 2 sides of the story, but actually do some investigative journalism and come to conclusions. Ask the tough questions and if all they get is talking points cut them off.........

Again you missed the point, main news media outlets have liberal views on issues, they don't bring conservative view but they say so, i watch CNN, CBS, listen to NPR, I am not saying FOX is the best but they are as good as the rest, agn my point is all the channels have left or right view (NONE have a centrist view), we should not discount FOX because they have conservative views,

in a recent survey more than half surveyed picked FOX as the most trusted new channel, if we think they are fools there is definitely something with us!

I will also agree with you "To be positive". But being realistically positive is good and avoids disappointment at the end of the day.

Hello,

I live in Massachusetts, Where should I send my EAD application ( Initial EAD, not renewal). My I-485 is pending with Texas Service Center.

Should I mail the EAD application to the following address:

Texas Service Center
P.O Box 851041
Mesquite, TX

Thank you for letting me know.

I am in the same boat. Filed EAD on DEC 10 2010 with TSC and still waiting. Contacted USCIS Customer Support and create Expedite Request last Friday. I was told that I will hear back in 5 days. Will post back if I hear anything.

Please continue to post bugs and suggestions.

Thanks for your replies. The additional thread did throw some light.

Is there any statistic (or guess-timates) for how many people are waiting for their green cards ? by nationality, EB category, Priority Month etc.

I thought this would be the most appropriate place to post.
I am on my 3rd year of H1-B (non-technical field), just moved to a new company and was going to start my process toward getting a gc in the next month or so. Now, with all of this, I am very confused.
Do you folks think that it is most appropriate to sit tight and wait to see what happens? or to just go for it now?
I'd appreciate your input, as I have to make a decision soon.

I am scheduling an Infopass appointment at my local USCIS office in the hope of getting an interim EAD. It has been more than 90 days since they received my application.

I have a few questions:

1. What do i need to bring?
2. What should i expect?
3. What kind of questions would they ask?


Your experience in this matter is great appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Easy...

Q6: What happens if an application is filed at the wrong Service Center?

A6. Forms I-485 should be filed at either the Texas or Nebraska Service Centers. However, through August 17, 2007 only, employment-based adjustment applications filed at the California and Vermont Service Centers will not be rejected and will be relocated to the appropriate Service Center. Filing at the wrong location could result in processing delays.

Hi,

My mother-in-law is coming to US on 2nd Dec on a one-way ticket, she will be going back around March 09 i.e. in almost 4 months.
As we dont know abt the dates as such of return so we have booked a one-way ticket from India to US.

Will there be any problem due to that at port of entry?

Do she also need to carry travel insurance along with her?

Thanks in advance.

My friend tried to get his brother. his brother is working in some IT company in india. The visa officer asked only one question

Visa officer: Whats your Age?
my friends brother: 26
Visa officer: sorry , visa cant be issued.. rejected.

No more questions and no more answers

It would help if you guys provide ur PDs to get an idea what PD folks are getting CP interview calls?

Hello all,

I filed for EAD renewal at TSC in early Jan 11. My current EAD expires end of April. I am just wondering how long TSC is currently taking to renew EADs.

Any experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It depends how the Employer and Employee discussed before starting the GC process.

Some may sponsor the cost only for the Employee and let Employee pay for the dependants.

To my best of my knowledge Employer can not charge back the Employee for sponsoring the GC, However there is no rule set for the dependants
