My PD is July 2004 EB2 with RD 02 July 2007, ND 09 Aug 2009. NC cleared in Oct 2007, Biometrics renewed by USCIS Feb 2009 and all primary and dependent cases PreAdjudicated on 13th Apr 2009.
While doing routine status check this month by opening SR's I came to know that USCIS has screwed up my EB category on my pending I-485 application in NSC. Looks like the data entry was screwed by the USCIS contractors or mail room personell. Also the PreAdj process also completely overlooked this mistake and preadjudicated my case. Because of their mistake my case was not even considered for approvals this month and also last years when the dates were current.
I created multiple SR's and did 3 infopass appointments to find out what is the current EB Classification and finally was able to confirm through infopass appointment that USCIS has put me and my family in EB3 category (GC category E36, E37, E38) instead of EB2 (E21).
SR response were vague and did not help much. Infopass appointments were of very little help as IO's in Dallas Infopass center are not trained to handle EB - I485 related issues. They don't have access to enough information to help us. They don't know how to use their own system to find information. Tried POJ method to reach IO but always got connected to useless CSR's.
I have only one I-140 in Eb2. My lawyer wrote to USCIS this Friday. I don't know when USCIS will correct the mistake so that they can Adjudicate my case being current this month and next month.
CSR's are not letting me open SR's as I have already opened 3 SR's ( 2 on my own and 1 through IO in infopass).
Did anyone has any similar experience with USCIS screwing up their application? If yes how were you able to get this fixed. Please post if you have any USCIS-NSC expedited addresses, FAX numbers, Direct contact addresses for Senior USCIS officals or procedures for submitting issues. Any help with be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
My wife is currently on H4 status. (Just the I-94, her visa expired last year October). She started her MS in Fall 2009. She already competed 2 Semesters of MS on H4 visa. We applied for her Change of Status to F1 visa in March. According to the USCIS processing dates, she will get the COS approved approximately in June 1st week.
She will have to travel to India this summer. The question we have is,
is it advisable to wait till she gets her F1 COS Approved and then go to India for F1 Stamping ?
or abandon the F1 COS and go for F1 stamping directly in India ?
Please advice if there are any risks involved here.
It is the same either way. Once she goes out, she would need a visa stamp to get back in. And the consulate will do whatever they needs/wants to do for approving (or not approving) the visa petition regardless of whether or not she was in F1 status before leaving US.

To my knowledge H1B extension is just like a new H1B application ofcourse 6 years window will be couted here and you have spent just 3 years. To me you can file H1B extension with multiple companies. But its better to file it with original company to be on safe side, onece the extension approval come ytou can trasfer it whereever you want.
Thanks

The policies that are supposed to help recovery are being worked on and will take time to show results. Remember nobody felt the recession until 1 year after it actually started. While waiting for the policies to take effect or show results ,positive or negative, they can act on other things that are important.
All other activities are not being carried out while ignoring the economy. They are trying to multi-task.
Think of it this way. When dinnertime comes around, mom may be preparing dinner and watching TV at the same time.It doesn't mean she is ignoring the family needs.

I live and work in the state which is under jurisdiction of TSC. I got my PERM approval from Atlanta National Processing Center. But for some weird reason, my attorney has mailed my I-140 & I-485 documents to NSC and it reached there today(07/27/07). My understanding is that my applications should have been sent to TSC directly. I am kind of worried now as my application has reached the wrong service center. Has anyone encountered a similar situation? Is there anything I could do now to address this issue? Even if NSC internally transfers the documents to TSC, will my receipt date be considered as the date they received at NSC? Is there any directive or memo from USCIS regarding this issue? Please advise.

I did my 7 th year visa transfer this year and again it took more than 2 months then nothing happened later I went for premium processing because my wife's H4 stamping date was coming closure. I guess usually it takes 2-3 months for transfering visa. Mine was Nebraska Service center. Again this year I am going for 8th year extension. Good luck for your visa transfer. Just relax and wait for USCIS reply on ur application.

Hi there,
This is exactly what my company's attorney had told me. If the new location is within commuting distance/same metropilitan area there is no need for a LCA amendment .
If anybody thinks otherwise please feel free to correct me.

Hi Friends :
I am not sure if I am posting this question in right thread or not.
My attorney (Dumbest creature on this earth) filed my I-485 (AOS) application on 30th June, 07 recd. on 2nd July at 10.45 am. I was under this impression that all 3 stages 485/765/131 were filed along to uscis.. but I was wrong. My attorney only applied for 485 saying that they were very busy and will file for 765 and 131 (EAD and AP) after we get 485 adjudicated.. BS..
Anyways.. My question is.. since 485 was mailed out via attorney's office, can I go ahead and apply for 765 and 131 on my own, bypassing attorney's effort or am I stuck with them to wait for their mood-swings to go ahead and file my papers. The deadline with old fees application is 30th July as per the news bulletin. I dont want to waste time for 485 to get adju. and then file for 765/131.
Please advise me about this situation. Also I don't have any proof of 485 application being submitted. I only have tracking number of Fedex that the application was delivered on 2nd July. GOSHH.. pls. advise me.
Thanks

Yes, COBRA is no problem and has nothing to do with your H1B / EAD / GC status.

Hi
I am qualified in finance;started my career in finance & continued for 4 yrs. then switched over to SAP implementation ; for over 3 yrs now, i have been into SAP implementation projects. I have H1B approved for SAP work.
Now, can I take up a job with a different title - say, "Finance Analyst" or "Corporate Finance"? I have been talking to various clients in California that are interested in offering me finance positions.
You can, depends what you can give up for taking the finance job.
You may have to give up your PD depending on your status of immigration.

Not been following the dates these days. Would be nice to have this info..
1) How much time does it take for the EAD application to get processed (Texas Service center) for new EAD (not an extn)?
2) How much time does it take for the AP extension to get processed (TSC) if I were to apply for an extension of my old AP today?
Thanks all for your inputs.
I would anticipate EAD to be processed in max of 3 months and AP in 2 months.
Would also add a buffer of 2 weeks (just in case).

I assume u r returing US worker i.e means that ur just getting ur H1B extended in that case u can choose any consulate in your home country.i recently got stamped at New Delhi Embassy but my consulate is Mumbai.
Since I could not get dates for Mumbai consulate during my visit to India even though i paid my fees at HDFC mumbai branch. it should not matter as long as u pay your fees and u r a returning worker.
