Better not, US does exactly the opposite to what someone asks her :D
I think India must ask US to send back all the skilled H1b holders exactly after 6 years and not issue GC. Then you would be surprised to see heck of a lot approvals !!!!

It was a nightmare for few weeks but, long story short...I got my new passport after the Embassy cannot find my original I sent for renewal. Please let me know if I need to get it stamped within any timeframe. My current I-797 expires MAY 2010. I have an approved 140 and EAD but my attourney suggested to stay on H1B.
Appreciate your feedback and help in this matter.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

ok this is a little unusual, my exp so far has been the checks are almost always cashed within 3-4 days, call cust center or take infopass and follow up, if you have a lawyer then ask him to check on it.
However i am not sure why your application reached VSC.
We have been applying for advance parole document at NSC for the last few years.
This time also we sent our application to NSC on 01/28/2010.
However, after about 15 days, we received a receipt notice letter from Vermont service center and the case is now pending at VSC. Moreover, the check is not cashed yet.
Based on the state we are living, the I-131 application instructions specify that I-140 based applications should be sent to Nebraska service center.
I am wondering if USCIS started processing I-131 applications at VSC.
Or our application is mistakenly misclassified and sent to VSC.
Any comments?

Gurus,
I have a question. I am a July 2nd 485, EAD, AP filer and I did not receive my AP yet. My H1 visa stamping got expired, and I am planning to go to India for 2 months. Can I leave US before my AP gets approved, hoping that it will be approved in the next 2 months time and my attorney will send the AP papers to my India address?
Is it possible, please advice.
Thanks
My attorney said same i.e. no issues known so it will be OK however as a lawyer he says small Possibility of screwup.

Here is the link that I found. Americans think h1b's are not paying taxes. Ignore it was posted.
Can Immigrants Save Social Security? By Edwin Rubenstein (http://www.zazona.com/ShameH1B/Library/Archives/SaveSS.htm)
Conclusion Text:
Foregone payroll taxes are just the tip of the iceberg. H-1b�s are entitled to every social service funded by U.S. taxpayers. They use our city parks, roads, and other infrastructure. And after working six years without paying Social Security taxes many H-1bs get Green Cards, qualifying them for Social Security benefits when they retire. No effort is made to collect back payroll taxes. And what about those American workers who lose their jobs, their health insurance, and Social Security points because companies prefer the cheaper H-1bs?.
Thanks.

The USCIS provided further clarification and instructions on I-140 premium processing following the initial announcement. They listed three types of cases that are not eligible for premium processing, even if they are within the EB3 preference category. These are:
a second I-140 filing, if an initial I-140 remains pending
a labor certification substitution request
a duplicate labor certification requests (i.e. those cases where the original labor certification is not included)
These cases simply have additional processing requirements that cannot be met within the premium processing timeframe. These exceptions are in addition to the EB3 �other worker� cases which, as mentioned above, are not eligible for premium processing.

A startup in the area filed for my PERM and it was approved in June 2010. Right now, they are in a mess about their tax returns and reauditing with their CPA and it seems that they will not be able to provide tax statements for this year end.
That will cause the PERM to expire without filing I140 since PERM expires in Dec. Is there anyway for us to file extension for the PERM ? More than 180 days...
I think they should still be able to file your I-140 in regular processing by not including the latest tax papers (include previous years). Since it takes a few months to process I-140 under regular filing, they will likely issue an RFE asking for tax documents. Hopefully, by then they are done with their audit and would be able to reply to the RFE with tax documents or provide explanation on why they cannot provide the requested documents but they can provide any other document that proves their ability to pay. That way, you won't lose your approved PERM.

well if there's a way for you to get your approved labor certification doc, or even the copy of the filed labor application; then definitely get it.
The labor app has the exact job description too. So if you do use portability (ac-21) it'll help to match it with the job specs of the new position.
good luck.
Read it properly before you jump. When there is no I-485 filed, where is the AC21 coming into the picture.

140 Approved from TSC last year.
EAD is self-filed later on Aug 14th @ NSC with USPS tracking# proof.
But EAD check cashed today from NSC (LIN#)
It's crazy. What I can say more.

I have an approved i140 from old employer, using which I am planning to file i485 (As PD from old PERM/i140 is current for the month of Aug. & no labor filed for ne employer). As I am in good terms with old employer, they are ready to give me a "future employment letter" for my GC processing.
Can someone please let me know -
1. Format of the letter, details thats needs to be present in it,
2. Anything else I need from the old employer.
Thanks!
Depends, is the job offer/position still open? Do you intend to go back to your old company when you get the GC? If not, it is illegal to file 485 (by means of fraud) using the old i140.
If legal, I guess the job offer should just state that the offer is contingent upon getting your permanent residency.
PS: I have no experience in "future offer letter", but making a guess based on the offer letter I got when I had not yet got my H1.

Hello,
I need some advice concerning my application for a B2 Tourist Visa to the US as my wife and I wish to travel to Disneyworld Florida next December to celebrate our belated honeymoon:
I received a police caution in March this year for "Battery" under Section 39 of The Criminal Justice Act after a domestic argument with my wife here in the UK.
I also have a UK driving conviction from 2006 for "Driving Without Due Care and Attention" which resulted in a �100 fine and six points on my licence which have now expired.
Do either of these cautions/convictions constitute a crime of "moral turpitude"?
I am rather concerned that although I have read that a simple assault/battery does NOT constitute "moral turpitude," spouse abuse certainly does under US law.
Does the definition of simple battery or spouse abuse depend on which country the caution was received in?
The incident in question was more of an argument than one of domestic violence. I grabbed my wife's arm and she twisted herself trying to get away from me and she fell over which left her with a minor bruise and scratch. I certainly did NOT use any deliberate force or physical violence towards my wife.
The argument arose because I had been unemployed for over a year and my wife was stuck doing a job she hates and financial difficulties at the time had put a strain on our relationship. Now that I have secured a full time job and our financial problems have depleted, the relationship between my wife and I is very stable and loving.
However, if the consular officer at the embassy decides that this is a crime of moral turpitude, would I still be eligible for "petty crime exemption" (as the maximum sentence for a Section 39 battery crime is six moths in jail) even though I have the driving conviction from 2006?
Any assistance and guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

TJH 34
