Agree with Hpandey, in this situation, 245K would help and any out of status period is counted only from the time after his latest entry, any out of status periods before that do not matter. Even without 245K i dont think the USCIS will make a big deal of this or even notice, but you never know.

Hi,
I just want to know as to will the Green Card process happen faster if the State of GA were to sponsor it?
Request you to reply soon.
Thanks
I have not heard of any specific quota for Govt agencies, maybe they have, can anyone confirm it?
I think there is no specific govt quota, everything goes through the EB process

Springflower, I have used Infopass for obtaining AP last year since my father was not well and was hospitalized. I requested his doctor to issue me a certificate about the situation and submitted the same in the appointment. Although it took two weeks eventually seems like it worked.

USCIS will consider only your qualifications and experience only at the time of applying for labor against the jobs requirements. You dont have to update USCIS with your latest qualifications.

I have to admit that I'm a little less educated in these immigration things than a lot of others. So, some questions might be of very basic nature.
I have been with a company for almost 9 years now. It was a relatively small one (2000 people). A bigger company (20,000 people) bought that. And, an even bigger (70,000 people) one bought that !! In all this process, my H-1B and GreenCard applications have been well-cared for by the company attorneys/lawyers. My I485 was filed in July 2007 during the rush. I have EAD...it has been renewed once as well.
My PD is NOT current as of September VB.
Although I have EAD, I used my H-1B extension to enter US in 2008 as this H-1B is valid till Jun 2010.
Now, I see a possibility of getting laid-off due to the latest acquisition/merger.
In order to find a new job, I want to know what all things I should care about and/or worry about. I don't think if I get laid-off, the company will do anything nasty without talking to me or at least telling me. So, here is what I'm trying to find out :
00. Should I immediately hire a lawyer to care for my pending I485 case with USCIS ?
01. If laid-off, what documents should I ask from my company for my records ?
02. I have EAD. So, is it true that I can still live in US as long as I want/my case is in pending status even if I cannot land a job ? If not true, how much time do I have on my hands to wrap-up and leave ?
03. Do I HAVE TO find a new employer that will be willing to support my I485 case ? If so, what all things the new employer will need to do ? Or, can I join a company that is may not be willing to support a foreign national's GC process and handle the case myself ?
04. Is it ABSOLUTELY necessary to find a job that identical to what job I'm currenytly doing and my LC was certified for ?
05. If and when laid-off, can I do part-time jobs that are related to the field of my epertise but not same in nature as in my LC. For example : If I'm a Java programmer, can I teach at a training institute couple hours a day, 3-days a week ?
Any response will be very much appreciated...
Thanks&Regards

Anoop - dont worry about it and ask your company to reapply with a stronger educational valuation. Everything depends on the educational valuation report submitted along with the application.
Request for a stronger educational evaluation and request them to reapply.
Thanks for the reply,
My visa petition went to RFE first and when I enquired my employer they said that the consulate asked for education evaluation report and they have send it, but they didnt show me what they have send and unfortunately this years quota seem to be over, I have to wait for some more time :-(

I entered US last december 2007 with a visitors visa,allowed me to stay for 6 mos.,last march 2008 I married my fiance who has a H1b visa and is working right now here in the US and last May 2008 I Applied for a change of status from visitors to H4 dependent..Until now the case is pending but right now we had a family crisis back home and I have to go back home asap...what will happen with my application if I go home...Will I still be able to come back here and will I be out of status if I leave my pending application here???
Make sure you have the copy of the application you filed for change of status while you were here. Or any receipt notice.
You can come back to US but b4 that you have to stamp a H4 visa at your country's US consulate. All should be fine assuming you had filed Change of Status application b4 expiry of your B2 I-94

Thanks jsb..In that case, I am changing jobs even without working for my GC sponsorer. I heard that it could potentially lead to fraud case.are you sure we can do this or do u know somebody who has done this.
thx
AC21 guidance issued in the following link should clarify some of your concerns.
http://www.ilw.com/immigdaily/news/2005,0520-ac21.pdf
GC sponsorship is always for a future job. Until your GC approval, if you are working for the sponsoring employer, you are there as a guest worker (on H1B, L1 etc.). It will be fraud if it is established that sponsoring employer did not really intend to employ you, and you did not really intend to work for them as a permanent employee, upon getting your GC.

Nah you are right, that is all I did, but I honestly doubt anyone would make a fuss :) I mainly made them for the sake of it, the only ones I'd definately want to see on there are the first 2 anyway so you can take the others off if ya don't want them :)

I think we need reform. Current H1B system is employer dependant and make us slave. There should be more breathing space.
Something like HSMP should come. In particular, the Fresh gradutes should be allowed to start their career in a honest way, not with the manipulted resumes designed/manufactured by almighty desi consultants.

It depends on which USCIS district you are applying from... but all in all these days between 3-6 months from applying to taking oath. Times for military personnel might vary.
Your country of birth/current citizenship has no bearing on times (unlike for Green Card)
Go here and check the service center closest for N-400 timelines: https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processTimesDisplay.do;jsessionid=bac585
Note: These timelines do no include time for taking oath.
Hi folks
Hi Folks
Assuming & God Willing I get my GC then , how long does it take to get US Citizenship. Does it matter which state you are working in and the Queues , State Wide Differ OR its the same slab.
Can someone point me to the webpage on USCIS that tells you how long the Q is . Does it matter , what your prev. nationality before GC was like to Priority Date my country or no relation.
HOW can I get US Citizenship Fastest ? AND HOW LONG, friends, does it take to get your family here as a dependent of a US Citizen

Friends,
A unique situation -
I am getting ready to apply for my wife's AOS (ROW). She has never used a last name on any legal documents, example birth certificate, passport.
Her H4 visa was processed with "FNU" - family name unknown .. Do I need a last name for filing her I-485? Can she get a GC with only her first name on it?
Or will they process it with FNU as last name...
Should i go to her embassy (Indonesia) and get her passport changed to my last name before applying for her 485? In that event, her H4 visa,passport and birth certificate will not match her passport..
Any thoughts on my situation?

I think Canada is much better option . It's cheaper and convenient. I have heard many success stories of H1 stamping in Canada
I've an appointment in October at Munich, Germany consulate for H1B stamping. Because of time constraints I decided to get the stamping done when I'm out there for work. I've already obtained the german visa (though had to provide plenty of explanation !). This is my 9th yr extn (MS, EB2 - 140 approved)
- Can anyone share their experience at the Munich consulate?
- or, should I plan going to Canada and trying rather taking the risk in Germany?
thanks,
