Man this is Federal government dude and more over part of DHS. This is not a privately owned corrupted company where they can dick around with people.
This is nothing new, things like this happen in almost all parts of the world. Remember Enron, one fine morning thousands of people found that their life savings or retirment savings got wiped out clean with nothing to fall back on. Same could be said of about a lot of dot com millionaires. Life is very very unfair, what other explanation do we have other than that.

I used the format below:
Dear Officer,
My case has been pending since September 2007. Below are the steps I have taken till now in order to get a decision on my case:
1: Initiated enquiry through my attorney.
2: Opened a service request with USCIS (Got an invalid response of no visa numbers available)
3: Made an Infopass appointment with an immigration officer.
None of the above has resulted in any clarity towards my case status.
Below are my case details- (Myself & spouse)-
Applicant name:
Application type: I-485
Category: Employment based EB2 (India)
Priority date:
Receipt number:
Spouse details:
Applicant name:
Application type: I-485

I had the following questions on my case:
1: As my priority date is current, has my case been assigned to an Immigration officer.
2: When can I expect a decision to be made on my case as my case is pre-adjudicated.
If you need any additional details from me, I can be reached at email or phone @ phone number.
Regards,
I will take you up on your offer. Can you please PM me the details on the e-mail/letter, or post here, whatever you feel comfortable with? Thanks!
Enjoy your day!

Could it be that the AILA is talking about the 4th category and AILF's Legal Action Center is seeking plaintiffs - mainly 4th category that got their applications rejected?
Then the title would say "June" visa availability. And it was for EB3 other category.

My company will only apply for an EAD for the spouse.
For the employee .. they ask that the h1 be extended.
Now in case I am laid off .. this pretty much puts me in the spot.
I've heard that it is possible to apply for EAD on my own.
1. Any idea if this is true and what info is needed to apply for the EAD.
2. Any issues with having both h1 and EAD?
3. Also if my wife is on EAD .. and I get laid off on h1 and am looking for a job .. what happens to her EAD?
4. If my wife is on EAD .. and I get laid off when on EAD and am looking for a job .. what happens to her EAD? And do i need to seek a smilar position in new company .. or anything works?
Thanks

I received the same thing. A canned reply asking to use their phone lines for inquiries. They returned my original envelope as well as my letter :rolleyes:

Thats very bad news. This means most likely there will be retrogression in November VB.
Or maybe thats why the dates did not advance for EB2I and advanced only 2 weeks for EB2 C in the Oct 10 VB. Compared to this in the Oct 09 VB, the PD for EB2-I advanced by 2 weeks and for EB2 -C it advanced by 2.5 months.

Mine is at TSC. PD: July 04. RD: Aug 17, 2007. ND: Oct 15, 2007. What is your RD and ND?
I have a feeling that the IO might look at the applications received on Aug 17, 2007, only at last. Its because, when I went for infopass, the IO said that, "You have filed on the last date, so you will have to wait".
Anyhow, I have tried all that I could, and now I leave it to the Almighty.
Fatjoe,
I will join your club. My dates are exactly like yours Except RD is Aug 13th.

The corporation can always say they have a policy to not hire someone with temporary work permit and there is no law against it. It is sad but that's how it is.
I don't think so. EAD is a valid form of employment, just like a Greed Card. If it is not then why certain employers hire u on EAB and why crtain do not?
It is just a matter of filtering out by claiming policy.
Most times, the hiring manager never gets into these things. Hiring manager is more concerned about skills and about how a peron fits the job best, but then in big corporations a lot of nepotism works (which is a different topic altogether and we can discuss nepotism in a different thread). It is the matter of how resumes are presented to the hiring manager and how the manager can be influenced prior to submitting the resume.
If a reqruiter or a HR starts fussing about ur resume and goes back and forth about EAD etc.... ur resume is never even going to the hiring manager no matter how much you convince.
In one instance, when I applied for a job, the reqruiting agency did all the initial crap discussion about skills, visa status etc..... after 2 days she gets back to me and first question is, "I know you are past 180 days on EAD, but can you tell me when you will get a Green card", I told her "I will get it anaytime and will continue using EAD till then". She said "Oh great". Then after an hour she calls me back "I just noticed on your resume that you have 2 short term projects, we place people in these companies and they stay for years together" , I said "contract projects can be short term/long term and there were personal reasons for me to hop these projects but you are most welcome to talk to the managers who I worked with", she dais "Oh absolutely not a problem". Then after half an hour she calls me "This work location may not be the best for you especially because you have to pay a toll on whitestone bridge, would you want to consider something in Manhattan?" I respond "Toll is fine, please go ahead and submit". Then she responds "Hmmm, ok".
I did figure that she did not want to deal with EAD but she was taking me on a roller coaster going back and forth. she never submitted my resume to tyhe hiring manager.

If I am not wrong VDLRAO is predicting Eb2 will be current with in a year if USCIS continue horizontal spillover. What is wrong with you..
I dont know what VDLRAO is predciting, I was responding to someone, oh wait a minute, it was your post a couple pages back that said "...as from VDLRAO's post Eb2 does not need much visa to become current ..".
So nothing is wrong with me, but you better ask that question to yourself.

How to Contact USCIS and FBI to Check Case Status
1. USCIS Online Status Check
With a case number, you will be able to see the current status and the last updated date (LUD).
You can set up a profile, including user name and password, and create a portfolio that includes all your immigration cases. Then log on and see the latest updates on all of them, such as I-485, I-140, AP, EAD, spouse’s cases, etc. Another useful feature for this option is that you can set up an email alert to receive automatic updates. Note that if there is a LUD change, but the message remains the same, you will not receive an alert.
2. Call National Customer Service at (800) 375 - 5283
Unfortunately, the customer service representatives don't know much more than what the online system shows. So it is not very helpful in most cases. However, on the phone you may place an inquiry with the service center that is processing your case.
3. Place a USCIS Inquiry
If your case is 30 days outside of the current processing dates, you can call customer service ( 800-375-5283) and place an inquiry. The representative will send an online message to the service center, which then mails you a letter in a few weeks to explain why your case hasn't been adjudicated. Recently, the answer is usually "your case is pending security check" or "your case is still within our processing dates."
4. Talk to a Service Center Representative Directly
Still by calling 800-375-5283, you will hear a long list of options. Choosing the right options will lead you to the service center that is processing your case. Because each case is unique, you need to listen to the options carefully and choose the ones that fit your case.
Even if you reach the center, you may be automatically transferred back to general customer service. But sometimes your call will be picked up at the service center. Explain your situation briefly, be polite but persistent, and ask about your case status. They do know a lot more details about your case, but have been instructed not to reveal much information, especially regarding background checks and FBI name checks.
5. Set up an Infopass Appointment
An infopass allows you to talk to an immigration officer directly, who has access to more information than the online system. So this is a better option to check on case status. An officer would be able to tell you whether your FBI name check has been cleared. This information alone is worth a trip for many.
6. Place a Congressional Inquiry
Writing to your senators and/or house representatives is another good option for people whose cases have been pending for a long time. Go to these websites:
and find the congressional representatives for your region. Write a personalized letter to briefly explain your case details (a copy of your i485 receipt notice would help), mention how long it has been pending, and ask for his or her help to inquire about your case status. If you are stuck in FBI name check, and have completed an FOIPA request, send in the response as well which might help.
Some congressional offices are not willing to contact the FBI directly, some will but only if your case is pending for more than one year, yet some will not even respond to your letter. So your mileage may vary. Also you may have to wait several months to receive a response in the mail, possibly due to the increasing number of letters asking for help.
The FBI has clearly stated that congressional inquiry will not help expedite the name check process. However, due to the lack of communication channels with the FBI, even a confirmation that name check is pending is worth the effort for many people anxiously waiting. Sad, but true.
7. FBI Name Check
The FBI is no longer responding to emails sent to FBINNCP@ic.fbi.gov, so a congressional inquiry or infopass with the USCIS may be the only options.
8. FBI Fingerprint Check
Call the FBI at 304-625-5590, and a representative may be able to tell you when the result was sent back to the USCIS. Since it is usually within 24 - 48 hours, this is only useful to confirm that FP was actually processed.

Above all I am here to get some information to bring a company which violates rules to authorities, nothing more nothing less and not here to do any name calling of mud slinging.
Don't worry buddy.. I am sure these guys were only pulling your leg.
Yeah I am sure everyone should stand up against violations . It doesn't matter if it is done by Americans or Indians or any other national. Just because most of the L1's in this particular case are Indians there is no reason to turn a blind eye to someone breaking the law.

I would like a second opinion on the below comments from my attorney:
1. On the 131 the last page (having signatures) has this question:
On a separate sheet(s) of paper, please explain how you qualify for an advance parole document and what circumstances warrant
issuance of advance parole. Include copies of any documents you wish considered.
[Atorney's reply] not relevent to your application leave it blank.
Do you think it is not relevant if I am filing for Advanced payroll...
2. 325 PART 3 B and also EAD Question on 765- For my spouse, the A# - Should this be filled up from her last EAD card (vald from 2003-2005 when she was on L2) OR left blank.?
[attorney reply] BLANK
any comments ?? If my wife had an EAD even though not valid, should that not be mentioned?
3. I asked my attorney for copy of the final documents submitted to USCIS and I was told that they do not share the cover letter the attorney writes up. Other forms, I can print online (they have a database after fnal corrections).
Upon asking for the employment letter they submit, I was told that I should request from my employer?
Any comments??
4. If I get RFEs or I need to use AC21 in the future, what all do I need from the 485 application that would help me if I do not decide to use my law firm?
I do have the 140 approval copy (1 page) and details of the labor skills, title and salary and not the actual labor copy that was submitted for 140 approval.

My lawyer's office is saying that Non Immigrant Visa number is Control number, but what I heard and looking at different websites including here, I think it is the red number not control number.
Is there a place I can verify this? What is effect on the application if they put control number? will that affect processing of my application in any way ?

US news has covered a book by David Heenan -- "Flight Capital" that essentially deals with the fact that high powered immigrants are leaving this country -- for whatever reason -- and how its bad for America. BAD FOR AMERICA. forget about it being bad of GC aspirants. ITS BAD FOR AMERICA. And we have one of america's own high powered former CEO saying that
http://www.flight-capital.com/
This man has no vested interested in talking about this. Obviously he does not need a GC and he is not on H1. He makes our case. How anti-immigration congressional measure are hurting America as a nation as much as it hurts aspiring immigrants.
