My suggestion. One of my very close friend who is also working for same employer as mine is exactly in same situation as yours.. only diff. she is on H1. Recd. her EAD, FP notice.. but no AP yet. She needs to fly on Nov 10. She got infopass appt. for requesting expedited AP. She was asked to bring along EAD and AOS receipt notices, her travel reservations and any document pertaining to travels.. her passport and Visa papers.. SO this way they could process or request AP on expedited basis. Hope this helps.

Feb'09 : H1B - 6 Years completed : H1B Visa / I-94 Expired in Passport

When President Obama hits the airwaves Wednesday night to give his State of the Union address, YouTube viewers can do more than simply watch.
According to YouTube, "this year's State of the Union speech will also make history." During the speech, those viewing the address on YouTube will be able to ask questions about the speech's content. The address will be displayed on the company's Citizentube page, where people can submit questions via text or video.
YouTube said that people will be able to continue to ask questions of the president for an additional few days, as well as vote for their favorite questions.
But here's the best part: next week, President Obama will answer the top-voted questions in a YouTube interview from the White House. It will be broadcast live on Citizentube.

The Department of State has published a pamphlet educating nonimmigrant visa holders on their rights. The pamphlet covers the visa process, important documents, workplace and employee rights, human trafficking, and how to file a complaint. This is a very useful document, not just for immigrants. See here (http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/Pamphlet-Order.pdf) to download.

Hello,
I am currently working for a leading retail company in the US. I filed for my 485 in July 2007 and is pending. The retail company acquired my smaller company and as result had to file for 140 again in 2008. In March 2009 my I-140 was approved and I recd. an email that it was approved and the notice was sent.
Since the I-140 is mailed to the employer, I asked them for a copy of the same. Initially they refused saying it is an employer petetion and after I requested again they said they will provide a copy when the receive it.
It is June now and they claim they have still not recd. it. They are saying they will have to request another one and due to budget constraints they are not going to request one as it costs money. Is this true that you have to spend money again to request a copy if you never recd. it? How much does this cost? Without the copy i do not know what priority date is mentioned.
Suppose in future i want to switch jobs, I would like to know if I need to have a copy of 140 if I want to use AC21?
What are my choices as at this point company says that they have the petetion # and they can use that for any purpose and will not request a copy. This seems a little odd to me.
any help is appreciated.

All,
I have a question about Mailing my renewal petitions. I have talked to Texas SC few times. I got different answers each time. It appears that they all need job training.
Here is my scenario:
Originally my 485 was filed with NSC and then it was transferred to TSC. So my 485 is pending in TSC right now. Where should I mail my renewal applications?. I live in Colorado. There are 2 different views on this. Some people say that I have to send my applications to whereever my 485 is pending. Some people say that I have to mail it to NSC.
Any thoughts?/
Thanks

HI ,
My brother graduated in Dec 08 and is on OPT now. He is with a consultant and he was wondering if there is any rule which states that folks on OPT should get a job in 3 months, otherwise the OPT will not be valid.
Can any one please clarify.
Thank you for your time
as far as i know that in the opt as long as you are employed its fine, even without pay employment works to keep the status active WITHOUT lapsing into the 90 day period. do tell him to cross check with his ISO

Why are you going to other forums for advice. Those other forums are after making money from traffic and ads. They want you to suffer as long as possible so that they make money. They even charge per question. You are being anti-IV by visiting other forums. I hope you see the difference between them and IV.
by other forums i meant other forum sections on IV.

Answers to some of your questions:
I am in the same situation. I have already sent my FOIA request about 3 weeks back. They have processed only 250 request in last one week. They have around 8600 requests. So it will take around 7 to 9 months to get the docs.
Since you will be asking only for I-140 and/or perm docs, there will be no cost.
You need to know SOC code/Job responsibilities/Salary for using AC-21.
Hopefully, some one who has more knowledge will reply to your other questions.

Getting Started (http://create.msdn.com/en-us/home/getting_started)
You will be using XNA Game Studio (installs into Visual Studio), to develop games. All your time other than for graphics will be spent in Visual Studio 2010. Highly recommend you have a device. Testing in the emulator is not the greatest for games.
Note: All you need is the freely available tools (Express Editions). Having the student or paid versions does not really benefit those using the XNA Game Studio, or building applications for WP7. I'm sure that page says that, just didn't want you to get confused.
If you have done any other game programming you will find everything pretty easy, just takes a bit to get use to. It sounds like you are new to C#, but don't worry most tutorials are setup in a way this shouldn't be a problem.
The MSDN Create site has code samples and there are lengthy tutorials online that will help you get started with XNA.

Sen. Patrick Leahy ( D-Vermont ) introduced the Uniting American Families Act ( S. 424 ) earlier this year; it has 18 co-sponsors. The bill would allow same sex couples the same immigration rights as married heterosexual couples. Passage of the bill is likely to be tied to overall immigration reform.
At the moment, same-sex partners of legal immigrants do not have the same rights to dependent status that heterosexual spouses get. This is true even if the couple is legally married in their home country. Often, the "dependent" partner must apply for a B-2 visitor visa at the consulate, to accompany his/her partner. This visa is discretionary, and consulates could refuse to issue it. In addition, B-2 status does not allow the dependent partner to work in the US. Many heterosexual dependent spouses have a status that doesn't allow them to work either, however.
As the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/03/us/politics/03immig.html) reports:
Senator Leahy�s bill would add the term �permanent partner� to sections of current immigration law that refer to married couples, and would provide a legal definition of those terms.
�I just think it�s a matter of fairness,� he said Tuesday in an interview, noting that a number of American allies, including Canada, France and Germany, recognize same-sex couples in immigration law. Photo by http://www.flickr.com/photos/boscobridalexpos/

Case Summary:
* Employer A = Previous Employer with whom I have my I-140 approved
* Employer B = Current Employer. I do not have a PERM or I-140 approved with this employer. I used my I-140 with Emp.A to get a 3 year extension when I transferred from Emp.A to Emp.B [So now, due to this extension, I have my H1-B approved upto Aug'08 instead of June 2006, which was the end of my H1-B six years]
* Employer C = Future Employer. I am planning to move from Emp.B and join this Employer now.
Question:
Can I use my I-140 from Emp.A to get multiple 3 year extensions with Emp.C when I change my job from Emp.B to Emp.C, or after joining Emp.C ?
[Please note: I do not have an approved I-140 from Emp.B at this time, and I have used my I-140 from Emp.A once to get a 3-year extension when I transfered from Emp.A to Emp.B. Can I use it yet again when I move to my third Employer, Emp.C or when I transfer my H1 from Emp.B to Emp.C]. This is assuming that the dates will not be current when I transfer or file for extensions.

H1B Visa Lawyer Blog Has Just Posted the Following:
The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently updated (http://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/ApprovedSchools.pdf) their list of Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) approved schools. The schools listed have all been certified to participate in the program.
The program allows foreign students interested in obtaining an education in the United States to complete a visa petition, pay the required fee, and attend a U.S. College or University.
Interested Foreign students: There is a process in obtaining a student visa, but it is not a difficult one. The student must first obtain Form I-20 from the U.S. College or University from which he/she intends to enroll, pay the required visa fee (Form I-901) and contact a local U.S. Consulate/Embassy to schedule an interview. The SEVP procedures differ among U.S. Consulates/Embassies; contact your U.S. Consulate/Embassy NOW to determine its particular procedure on applying for a visa before planning for the interview.
Interested Schools: There is a separate process to obtain F & M Certification. Authorized school officials must obtain and complete Form I-17. An overview of the SEVP Certification process (http://www.ice.gov/doclib/sevis/pdf/i17_process.pdf) can be found on the ICE website . If approved, the school will be certified and allowed to issue Form I-20 to qualifying foreign students.
If you need assistance or an explanation of the SEVP, please contact our office (http://www.mvplg.com/contact.htm) to schedule a consultation.
