Hello, All buddies:
My case is a little special:
After my wife (H-1B) filed I-140/I-485, I got EAD in Dec 2006, and I (H4)started to work by using EAD from Jan 2, 2007. On May 10, 2007, we received I-140/I485 denial letter. we filed a reopen and reconsideration for I-140 denial. I was still using that EAD for work (it is vaild from Dec 2006-Dec 2007) during that time. In November 27. 2007, I changed my visa from H4=>H1.(I was not being asked by USCIS to go aborad for re-stamping H1, anyway it is approved). The USCIS denied our Reopen and Reconsideration for I-140 again later in March 2008.
Now the comany sponsor me to apply for EB2 green card.
Usaually, when using EAD, your status is AOS, and when I-140/I485 denied,
you lose your status. In my case, from May 10-Nov 27, I maybe already lose
my status. however, H4=>H1 is OK without any problem.
My question
1.
I worried that in the future, in the stage of waiting for I-485 approval, does USCIS can find out that I have the above problem between May 10-Nov 27, (it is over 180 days)?!
--However, during that period, I have a I-140 reopen and reconsideration case pending?--does this mean legally staying in US? (even it denied again later)
2.
If this is a problem, do I had better go home country/re-entry US once to clean these mess?
3.
However, I am over 180 days, is that possible that I can not come back?
Thank you very much in advance.
Jerry

This is a much talked about subject around these days. I am sure many of us who renewed EAD but had a gap in the expiration and renewal date and were on a leave of absence. Would this be a problem when it comes to the GC processing?

Canada has the world's largest oil reserves and the unnoticed scramble for control of the arctic area has been in the works for a while. The US had many opportunities to secure high skilled labor in the interest of economic prosperity, instead other countries such as Canada, Australia, Ireland, Germany etc had the foresight to realize the positive economic impact these workers have, the US didn't and the result is that its archaic immigration policies are beginning to demonstrate the consequences:
The Canadian government says the jurisdiction is clear � they're Canadian waters. But the U.S. and some other countries don't agree. They see the Northwest Passage as an international strait that any ship should be free to transit.

Even of greater significance was the recent claim by Russia to the entire North Pole:

Wondering if a little something when filing my taxes will backfire on me when filing I-140/485.
I'm single/no dependents but for past 4 yrs or so when filing taxes have showed 2 dependents for child tax credit (no earned income credit applied for)....my niece/nephew. My bro had full knowledge and he had suggested as due to his status in US, he is not required to file taxes. Sis in law not working, so not filing taxes. So i used to do that....
It won't come to bite me right???? ok i am never doing this from now on but is it too late for me. Obviously on my immigation forms i will show no dependents etc as i have none...
any advice.....
Personally, I wouldn't send my tax returns until I have spoken to a GOOD lawyer. There are quite a few IO that do not ask for tax returns b4 or during the interview. However, it shouldn't be a problem as you can explain it away. Simply - they were my dependents in those 4 years !! But now they are not, simple.

Southern California members,
We have organized an Immigration Voice booth this Saturday August 18th at Pierce College, Woodland Hills at the IALA (India Independence) event. 14,000 people attended this event last year. Our aim is to talk to the general public about our issues, increase our membership and to generate publicity for the DC Rally. We will be handing out printed material, giving presentations and discussing our issues with the public.
The booth will be open from 3pm to 11pm. Come volunteer at the booth or visit us on the day. For more information on how you can volunteer, join the Southern California chapter here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SC_Immigration_Voice/
Note: We are aware that retrogression is a problem that affects people from all nationalities, however, due to the vast number of visa holders of Indian origin, the idea to take part in this event was proposed by a few members in our group. The So Cal IV group will gladly take part in membership drive events by other nationalities should those members come forward and propose such ideas.

Jon Stewart, who knows a thing or two about irony, will create a two-hour special on a perfect target�the U.S. naturalization process�for History Channel, to air in the fourth quarter.
http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/231905-Jon_Stewart_to_Make_History_Special.php
The Naturalized, to be produced by Busboy, Stewart's company, follows eight individuals through the bureaucratic morass of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The special will also include interviews with undocumented and deported illegal immigrants.
If we can contact busboy productions with our stories to make sure that atleast of one of the eight individuals is someone who is stuck in this EB backlog.
Here is Jon's contact info at the daily show thedailyshow@comedycentral.com
It would be great if someone can find the contact info for busboy productions too.
Also, Please send email to the Daily Show and/or Colbert report to interview someone like Vivek Wadhwa to explain to their viewers the how this behavior hurts America.

I recently found a new job and they filed for my H1 transfer in premium processing. I am still working for my old employer. Now I have got an RFE questioning why my salary (in 2009 W2) which is less than what was mentioned in my previous petition. Even though I have all my paystubs I was on bench for few months between march - may 2009. I have a leave letter for 4 weeks vacation in may and my salary was reduced when I got new project. Which explains why it is less but may not be enough to prove it to USCIS. Salary in W2 could also be less that prevailing wage. Right now I have following scenarios
1. WIthdraw application - not sure repurcussion of this.
2. Respond to RFE with mentioned reason which can have following outcomes
a) Appoved - (good i will be more than happy)
b) Approved with consular processing - (I dont want to travel at this point of time outside US)
c) denied - (not sure)
3. This case goes to DOL and there may be investigation or indent of revoke sent to my employer. Can this happen?
Here are my questions
1. Senario 2.b. If I get "Approved with consular processing" do I have to travel to India for stamping immediately or just get new I94? What will be my current status then? What if I decide not to join the new employer?
2. Senario 2.c. If I get "Denied" what will be my current status?
3. What should I do so that I am not out of status and I dont have to travel to India for stamping?
4. Scenario 3, Can this happen?
Any response will be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
Any cases where the underlying I-140 was withdrawn after 180 days of the 485 being pending(changed jobs using AC21) got approved recently?
I am current as per the July bulletin and would appreciate if some one else who is/was in a similar situation can provide their updates.
Cheers!

If your PD is current and AOS case is approvable exept your FP which is more than 15 months old then you might get a FP notice to have it done before USCIS approves the AOS application.
