I think everyone is interested in their interests. We call it vested interest. Everyone is going to work to further their interests just like we are working for our problems. To us, our problems are genuine, but may not be to everyone who we think they should be.
To the extent possible (with in the limits of our resources) in our publicity efforts, it is prudent to make our natural allies more proactive, to turn the people in our favor who are nuetral, and, reduce the impact of groups that are anti-legal immigartion by spreading the positives.
I am not in false hopes that every one is going to change their thinking because we told them our problems, but, we should try to the extent possible. It is not going to harm us.

I guess you won't find much love for labor transfer cases in these forums but AFAIK AC21 has nothing to do with whom the labor was filed for.

You are from ROW....here are some things to consider....
Is your new employer filing your GC under EB-2? If the answer is yes, then you should definately take the new job and re-file GC and not worry about your EB-3 perm that is pending.
If your new employer is going to file under EB-3, then you have to evaluate which job is better for you (as far as pay, position etc.). If you think the new job is much better than what you have now, then I think you should still go for it. Your PD is very recent and a PD of Aug 2007 and a PD of (say) Feb/Mar 2008 has approximately the same value (according to me).
You have a valid H-1B until June 2009 and since you will apply for your perm LC before June 2008, you are eligible for atleast 1 year H-1B renewals.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
I second this. In fact I would say if you are ROW-EB3, see how you can find a job that allows you to file your GC in EB2. Even if you dont like the job. You will need to stick to it maybe an year or two and then you'll have your GC and will be all set!

I meant what docs we need to make sure we have from the employer whom we will be quitting.
Any suggestion on what is the best way to quit the existing employer ? What kind of explanation would let them create least trouble when I exit.

It is illegal for the foreign employee to pay or to reimburse the employer (or even agree to a reduced salary) to cover the costs of the foreign labor certification process. There are no exceptions to this - there is no varied interpretation either. The labor certification will be denied or revoked if the foreign applicant had any role to play in the recruitment process.

You probably won't get a FP notice if you have done biometrics done before for I-485.
So may just have to wait for approval.
This is not consistent. I filed on Apr 18th. Last LUD on apr 27th.They received the documentation that day. My fried filed 3 weeks ago. He got a FP notice. Both were efiles. He has also done his FP along for 485.

you should have been OK to go out and get back in, assuming you get the Visa. Probably you can do the same even now, if you do get the Visa.
I know one person who was working on OPT and their employer filed for h1. She continued to work while waiting for USCIS approval even though the OPT expired.
Finally when she did get the decision on h1 that it has been denied, she consulted a lawyer, on their advise, left the country immediately and got back in on H4. However, it was less than 180 days since her OPT expired.
I am not sure how the o1 works or if this info may be relevant to you.
Hello,
Thanks a lot for your answers.
Despite the situation sounds illegal and I agree it is - I didn't wanted to make something illegal and was just waiting for my employer to fill the papers.
I am as well what they call a skilled worker, I basically get a o1 visa to work as manager for a big company and I don't give a fuck - but yeah I get another job offer and didn't waited to have the new visa to start. You know sometimes you can take bad decisions, people can tell you things which never happen, and that's unfortunately how life is.
Last week I get another job offer, it's real and not illegal - I worked a lot to get this offer and spent so much time working hard instead to have fun.
I am currently filling a new o1 with a lawyer and plan anyway to leave the US asap. Maybe I will never have this visa and will probably be bar for 3 years but I really need to try to make everything possible.
When I get the first job offer in the US - I was working as manager in Europe, and everything was pretty fine. I accepted this job, sold and gave all the stuff I owned to come here, in the United States, to work. Today I have no apartment or place to live in my country and I know as well that when you get a non immigrant visa you are supposed to can get back to your country easily but it's like hard to keep 2 rent and 2 places.
I will be very grateful if you can give me your point of view about my case and share your experiences.
Thanks a lot

Once your Priority date of a category is current and namechecks are cleared, it is First in first out within the country quota. At that time, earlier priority dates do not matter at all. What matters is how early you applied for your I485 (date the application was physically received by the center, and not the date a notice was sent).
Not sure how much, but PDs do matter. My is EB2 / India /July 2003 and thimgs are moving fast. I am a TSC 2nd july filer. Got my EADs, AP, fingerprint doen, LUDs etc
Also, they messed up my first EAD appl by putting down Country of Birth as USA so I reapplied on 9/14, checks were cashed on 9/19 and Card production ordered on 9/28. I'm no expert but looking at others in the same scanrio mine seems to be moving, maybe its because of the pirority date?

Hi
Thank u for the response
client is a finacial firm UBS.
Consulting firm is a direct vendor to the client and they transferred my H1 offerrin' me FT
This was the offer they pay $x on a daily basis -- W2
$65k -- they will mention in H1 and the remaining amount as per the W2 they will pay as bonus once every 3 months, tht's wht the agreetment is.
In the contract i was mentioning it says in case i fail to provide services to the vendor i am suposed to pay all the expenses they spent on me but the thing is client rejected the offer and there was no job @ all and they stopped floating my resume, askin' me to find a job myself.
This is the email i received.... but the thing is i never started at all bcoz of clients rejection based on credit report.
You and vendor entered into an agreement on or about March 8th 2010. According to the agreement you were to provide your services to Vendor by working on a project for our client UBS. Your services were to commence on March 22, 2010
To date, you have not fulfilled your obligations nder the agreement and thus youare required to pay Vendor the total sum of amounts for obtaining your work authorisation along with the cost of obtainig your background check.
If i am still not clear please let me knw
Thanks Again

It is too early to tell if it definitely refers to us, but it is more likely that this IS referring to EB and naturalization background checks. Reasoning is like this - Background checks are required by Department of State (DOS) for issuing Visas. Department of homeland security (DHS) under which USCIS comes is responsible for those within the US. Now background checks are not conducted for issuing H1B visa etc. They are only for EB/N-400. So it is more likely they are referring us. Secondly, just two months back USCIS announced that it is going through Ombudsman's report and would be preparing a response. Last month FBI's miller came out and suggested they are happy with main file checks (which take less than 2 days to come back automatically) and USCIS is insisting of doing reference file checks and they would be keen to work with USCIS to find ways of reducing backlog processing times. Some options included they way background checks are done, and also borrowing workers from USCIS for FBI's NNC unit. Finally, when the fee increase was announced USCIS mentioned some of the money would go to reduce processing times and FBI asked for increasing the name check fee from $2 to $9 which means now that the fees increase has been implemented more resources to reduce time may be implemented.
With scores of cases against USCIS and thousands of letters to congressmen and president and articles in NYT and WS Times, finally they may have realized that it is time they attended to the background check delays issue.
Very good points. We should know more about this tomorrow. Hopefully they are referring to FB/EB IMMIGRATION.

[QUOTE=thepaew;292857]It is not possible to switch to F-1 if one has filed I-140. If you wish to pursue an MBA you basically have 3 choices:
1. US-based part-time program
2. If you are married, you can attend on H-4, with risks of being out of status if your spouse loses employment and the difficulty in obtaining US-based placements.
3. Look outside the US - INSEAD, IMD, MBA-HSG, LBS, ISB, etc. etc. There are very good options outside the US too.
Good Luck!

here is what I am planning to do. Go ahead and apply. If I get admission and GC does not come through by next fall, simply ask for a deferral. If it is not granted, apply again.
I do not want to reset my GC process.

You must ask the badge number and note down the time of each call. Then file a complaint if you are not satisfied with the customer service experience.
Once we have a proof of hundreds of such written complaints, IV can also follow up. We need people to file 'written' complaints in order to help improve the service.
I do not have any ID (She spoke that too quickly) but I know the time (8 am cst) and I am prepared to give the written complaint.

Hi,
Would like to throw some more ideas;
You should keep in mind that with this economy there is no guarantee of your job (my personal experience).
If you want to stay in this country and that is one of your foremost desires/aim
then in my opinion it is always better to aim for the GC and then do whatever you have to do.
If you have option of going back to your home country and do not mind (due to job loss or other situation) then by all means go for career.
Good Luck.

Thanks all. I called my lawyer, and she mentioned that there have been specific cases of the Neb Service Center rejecting I485 applications for internists while they are doing fellowships. I guess my plan would be to find a 'full time' position working a couple of nights a week in the same city where I am working as a fellow, and use that as proof of ongoing full time internist work.
I am not sure if they need just a letter, or a w2s also. I guess 'full time' is a very arbitrary word, and can be applied to more than 28-32 hrs a week, which is very easily doable.
