Hi-
I am applying for my EAD/AP renewal. The received date on my I-485 notice is Aug 2007. According to USCIS, if you filed after July 30 2007, you are not required to include a Fee.
I am looking at my receipt notices and I feel like I payed under the old fee structure and should include the fee. Here are the amounts
I-485 : $395.00
I-765 : $180.00
I-131: $170.00
Can someone please advice if I need to include the fee for AP and EAD renewal.
Thanks

Nice choices. Those two lens will no doubt get a lot of use. They certainly seem to be working well for you in these shots.

Hi,
My brother is in Toronto, Canada for a conference. He has an H1B extension which is not stamped. At the US airport before boarding the toronto flight they took his old expired I-94 (from previous H1B). He currently has his I-797 (H1B) petition that has the I-94 at the end.
1) Can he use that I-94 to enter the US (his new H1B extension is not stamped). His stay is only for 4 days in Toronto.
2) If not then what are his other options (except for H1B stamping as there are no dates in toronto)
Would appreciate any advice as soon as possible.
Thanks.

To all fellow GC applicants and immigration gurus.I have this question to ask.I recently got my I-140 and applied I-485 (Aug 1 2007).
My employer is moving office to new address.How will it effect my future GC process ?. Thanks in advance
If the company is moving within the same county then no issues.
If it's moving to a different state (or) to a different county within the same state, then refer the following thread
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/showpost.php?p=158508&postcount=7
Remember, the prevailing wage differs from county to county even within the same state.

Hi guys, I have a unique situation, thanks to july visa bulletin. I have a EB3 labor and I 140 approved with the PD as May 2004. Recently I applied EB2 PERM in order to port the PD from EB3 to EB2. My EB2 perm is approved now. Now, I am in dilemma to choose between EB2 and EB3. I can apply EB2 I 140 and I 485 concurrently (by assuming that they will port the PD) or I can apply I485 (for previously approved EB3). Please suggest as to what route I should take.
I suggest go with EB2 if the priority date is way ahead of EB3

Guys,
I wanted to select an infopass appointment for my wife her case is still pending, mine was approved on sept 4th (thru CRIS mail) at the Boston office
While selecting Infopass Appointment, should I select :
* You need service on a case that has already been filed.
(This seems logical , but it asks to choose from 4 options...the one that seems appropriate is : Case services follow up appointment...but it asks to bring SR (service request no) and that it should be over 45 days from the day SR was opened. But SR was opened only last friday...can I avail this service.
Or
*You need information and other services.
(On this one 4 services are available: one of which is obtain case status....but the question is if I want to obtain case status it must have already been filed...then it should belong to the above one)
Also anyone having experience in the state of Mass...last time we had an infopass we had to go to Boston USCIS office...now it is showing Lawrence Field office for the appointment I took for my wife using the 2nd option from above.
I selected No of people as 2 so can I accompany her to the office?
Thanks,
SoP

It has no effect on a future Citizenship application. Remember it is a payment against unemployment insurance which is paid by your previous employer/s.
As such it is not a burden on the state.
Does anyone know if claiming unemployment benefits after layoff have any possible impact on a future citizenship application?

Just curious.
Who played what role in the reversal of USCIS/DOS decision?
Did IV core / AILA / Congresswoman Lofgren worked together in the back ground? Flower campaign / SJ rally / media - newspaper articles ?
May be all of the above had its unique impact on USCIS's decision to accept I-485?
Below article is just one example. There are many like this which mention about IV. IV hired a lobbying firm and work with different people for lobbying efforts. But the whole effort was lead by IV.

There have been cases reported in past on this forum where the PERM approval was lost in mail.
You should ask your employer to download the PERM approval from DOL ETA website, which should be completed and signed by both you and your employer (similar to the PERM paper approval that you did not receive).
Your lawyer should submit this form with I-140 and also request USCIS to obtain a duplicate copy of PERM approval from DOL. This may help.
Are you porting to EB2?
Yes i was hoping to port to EB2.
The issue is that the lawyer says that they will follow this process of dowloading the cert and request USCIS to get a dupe, but hey say they cannot do this under premium processing and will have to file under regular I140. this adds 6 months to the process and effectively eliminates any advantage since i hope to get my EB3 485 current by that time.

I would like to see this kind of report in front page of WSJ and NY times.
I like the below points from the report.
- There is no evidence that during the long periods of time when no foreign
nationals could receive new H-1B petitions the job market improved for U.S. workers or professionals.
- The March 2009 findings from Duke University and University of California, Berkeley researchers send a signal that America cannot take it for granted that outstanding international students, researchers and professionals from around the world will always want to stay and work in the United States.
- The relaxation of green card constraints proposed in the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006 could have increased labor earnings and GDP by approximately $34 billion in the tenth year following enactment and had a net positive effect on the budget of $34 to $47 billion over ten years.
- Relaxation of H-1B caps under the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007 could have increased labor earnings and GDP by $60 billion in the tenth year following enactment and improved the federal budget�s bottom line by $64 to $86 billion over ten years.�
- �Over the past 15 years, immigrants have started 25 percent of U.S. public companies that were venture-backed, a high percentage of the most innovative companies in America . . . The largest U.S. venture-backed public companies started by immigrants include Intel, Solectron, Sanmina-SCI, Sun Microsystems, eBay, Yahoo!, and Google.
- we estimate that all companies founded by immigrants from 1995 to 2005 produced $52 billion in sales and employed 450,000 workers in 2005,�

On behalf of core group, I apologize to you and your wife for the abusive language that someone used.
We tried to moderate the forum posts. At any time, there are nearly 200-300 people reading the forums and nearly 20-25 posting. Its a tough thing to moderate every thread since we do this along with day-to-day fulltime jobs.
I have to close this thread otherwise this thread will spiral into a thread war that none of us want. And we cannot have such threads continue as its embarrassing for us all.
If you'd like, you can email me jay@immigrationvoice.org if you want to talk about this issue so that I can explain more.
Thanks for understanding.

I have got my EAD, and my application was filed in EB3, 2005 in perm.
With the kind of speed USCIS is working with, I fear I would never get my GC.
Whereas My brother is a Citizen. Can it be possible that he files family based GC for me ?
I have read that for family based applications they regard the priority date as date of filing I-130.
If I do so, will my current process be wiped off ?
what are the repurcussions.
Please advice.

My EAD expires on 07/28/2010. My EAD renewal is currently pending (applied online on 5/18/2010 at NSC). My AP expires on 08/24/2010. I am planning to apply for AP renewal once I finish my move to new address.
So, I really don't know which date to put. BTW, USCIS online application didn't mark that field as required.

reddy77,
Did you give mail forwarding instructions to USPS when you moved from your old address?
I had done this online and got my AP duly forwarded to my new address. This happened about a month back.

Everyone, please write to USCIS Ombudsman's office and complain about the issues we are having dealing with USCIS. Also, seek their assistance in having USCIS process our applications in a FIFO manner especially for the transferred cases. Also write to them about slow down in I-140 processing and requesting them to reinstate PP for I-140 petitions. Unless we write and put some presurre, things will not change. You can write about any of the issues you are facing with USCIS as they are available to assist us. I think its worth a shot for us folks.

Regarding "how soon can you go for stamping"
Depends on the consulate. Mumbai consulate allows you to go for stamping 90 days prior to start of your extension. In your case if your extension starts on 1st October 2010, you can go for stamping as early as 5th July 2010. Since you are expecting to receive the extension by August you can go for stamping as soon as you receive it.
I would recommend dropping a mail to VFS and asking this question for the consulate you are interested in.
