Hi,
All those waiting for FP including me here is some good news if my logic is correct.
USCIS announed today that as of today( Feb 15th) they will consolidate all Biometrics for EAD and I-485. This means AS a WORST case the next time (perhaps aug-sept 08) when we will need to renew the EAD's and take FP appoitments in the local ASC it will automatically fulfill our requirement for biometrics for 485.

http://www.immigration-law.com/
Anyone ready to dispute my logic??
I filed in July 07 and had single FP for both EAD/485 in last Sep... So doesn't look news to me.. May be USCIS wanted to say that they'll preserve this FP and will use for consequent EAD renewals thus not requiring new FP evry year...

read the website properly, i applied for my passport, without any issues and got it back. before u criticize any agency, get ur facts right. so ur sayin waiting endlessly for GC is better service than the indian embassy service that deal with so many customer in one single day?
Fully agree with you. I have had a couple of work done with the embassy. Both times I had issues from my end, and the staff was more than willing to work towards a solution.
The first time I did via the postal route, I wanted an ECNR stamp but failed to send all the necessary documents. When I called and talked, the staff member was very calm and suggested that I fax the required documents, and they will do the rest.
The second time, while renewing the passport, I had some problem with my name, which also, they helped correct without the usual run around that people usually associate with Indian administration.

I believe that human resources will be largely diverted to produce more "citizens" this coming election year.
There are only three ways to get an employment based greencard in retrogressed categories
1) wait it out
2) Possible legislation , not before 09
3) An intervention by USCIS to increase exemption categories in EB-2/3. I think IV should push for exemption categories to be expanded. Because USCIS has certain powers. Every one remembers USCIS added 20000 H1Bs without any formal legislation.
I think no#3 is the best bet.
Correction.....20K visas were added only after legislation by congress to do so for folks studying in usa

so if this is the case none of the BIG consulting firms can process GC :). I think it should be OK as long as you and the management are clear about the intentions. If you are on H1 make sure you get your new LCA
I work for my company in city A. My GC application is in process (I-140 is approved in EB2 category with a priority date in Dec 2007 and I-485 has not been filed). I have received admission to a top 10 business school in city B (in another state) for a part-time MBA program. I wish to relocate to city B to pursue the MBA and still be working remotely in the same position for the same department from our company office in city B. Once the GC is approved, in say 2-3 years, I would relocate back to city A and continue in the position that the GC was petitioned for.
My management is in on board with the plan but our immigration attorney is recommending against it claiming that there is a huge risk of GC denial. Her argument is “The GC application is premised on the fact that I intend to work for my company on a permanent full-time basis in the position and at the location described in the GC application. I must maintain that intention throughout the GC process. By relocating to pursue an MBA, it looks like I don’t have that intent and USCIS could use this as a basis to deny my GC.”
I desperately want to attend the business school in city B but not at the cost of risking GC. In order to make this decision I need to assess the risk involved. Please help me in estimating the risk!
To what extent are her fears valid? By going against her advice would I be putting my GC in grave danger? Do you know cases where people have relocated for pursuing MBAs during the GC process and yet received their GC?

More Interesting exchange....
Patriot,
See my earlier comments. We are not asking America to change immigration laws to suit us. We are just asking that the govt. accept our applications as per their earlier notice, and we are more than happy to wait in line for 2-3 years until our turn comes under the current green card quotas and laws.
Reply:
"See my earlier comments. We are under no obligation to accept all foreign workers that want access to our country. This country's obligations are to Americans. Perhaps the government realized that an American was qualified to fill your position and that your service is no longer needed. Have a safe trip home. "
Patriot,
Sorry but I'm not about to go home yet. I have legally been authorized by the government to live and work here.
BTW I had mentioned earlier that our green card petitions have already been approved by the government. What we are asking is that they grant us our cards and complete the process.
No matter what you or others say, I will stay in this country legally, fight for my rights (whatever they may be), and get a green card and Citizenship and live the America Dream.
This struggle of legal highly skilled immigrants is just and reasonable and we are only contributing to the success of America like many great immigrants before us.
We promise to continue that great tradition in the spirit of Einstein, Pulitzer, Chandrasekhar and Sergey Brin (Google Co-founder)

Friend... same thing had happened to my wife, TB test positive then Xray not conclusive, I had 3 days left to respond to RFE, so I asked the doc. about the options and one of them was CT of Chest, I got the same day appointment for CT (no contrast) and requested the radiologist for the priority (told the story that we are short of time for immigration medicals submission) she put the report on priority and the report was faxed to my doctor next day at noon... Yeah, CT came negative and got all clear within 24 hours.
If you are in time crunch then ask the doctor for CT Chest with No Contrast prescription. Make sure that No Contrast is written on the prescription otherwise you will be send back by the radiologist. I dont know how much bill I am going to get but I was able to get it done on time.
Hope this helps...
Thanks and Good Luck...
Recently I got a RFE for medicals. Everything is clear except the TB test
My TST test showed 10mm induration. Subsequently I took a chest x-ray, a while back the clinic called me saying they are looking at the results and they are not conclusive. Apprently radiologists have recommended a CT scan. The doctor says he would not want to take a CT scan, he would rather recommend me to the local county health clinic for confirmation.
1. I have only one week to respond to the RFE. What should I do if I do not get the response from country health clinic in time?
2. What if they recommend further tests, whose results would be known after the RFE response date. What should I do then?
Pls advise, I am confused

Yes you can but can't keep on renewing it with the any of the labor/140 approvals you have. You have to start new process if something happens for 485.

I would imagine that USCIS would definitely cross check with I-140 for experience stated.
From USCIS perspective:
1) It seems that you have stated experience before you graduated. This would lead to ...2)
2) Were you authorized to work during your opt/cpt or graduation course ? was it off campus etc ?
If they find out that at stage explained in 2) you were not authorized to work off campus (whther full time or part time ), you could be in trouble.
Please consult an experienced attorney. Claiming experience which cannot be proved ( LEGAL status is the key here), is a BIG mistake and might have consequences.
Act ASAP.

GC is for the future job and your current job in a different location should not be as issue as long as you are maitaing LCA for that location for your H1B.

Setup the email notification for status change and forget about it. Whenever anything changes except LUD which is anyway useless, you can get a notification. Dont waste your time checking status multiple times. Study or read something instead.
Might sound rude but true
You may not always get email notification. In the past my EAD was approved and the status changed to 'approved' online but never got an email eventhough email option is enabled. Sometimes it just doesn't work.
So better check once per day

There is no provision for citizen of India. If you leave before making 40 points / 10 years of work....United State govt would gladly keep your money. This is another way of telling this to you --"In God we trust"!
Make every effort to put 10 years here and then no matter where you live and what's your immigration status --you can claim your money after the age of 67. Again, if SS lasts that long!

Nepoliboy, It is not compulsory that you will see LUD after bometric. You can talk with USCIS customer support after couple of weeks and ask whether your name check is clear or not. Even that should not be a constraint now as your application past 180 days. I suggest waiting for couple of weeks and open a service request.
