If you have approved labor and 140, why you want to file EB2 perm?
1. Are you jumping to another company? Yes you can do this as you are not substituting any labor. You are just porting YOUR PD.
2. Are you thinking to apply ther PERM from the same company? It is possible only if you jump to different department. Yes, you can still port the PD.
Substitution is the terminology used only when the beneficiary name changes. As long as the original labor is in your name, you can port the PD n number of times.
Folks , for someone with March 2004 Eb3 India PD , is converting to Eb2 really going to help in any way at all ? Please suggest.

This is a situation with my friend that I am posting under my name...
Questions are mostly related to regarding EAD situation
1. My friend is on H1 and have EAD (June'07 filer) for both him and his spouse... his spouse (secondary aplicant) is currently working on her EAD.. If his company lays him off... Would his wife have any effect on her employment?
2. Could he renew my EAD/AP on my own with no employer support (despite he has no job)
3. What if he goes to India on AP (or otherwise).. would that have effect on his wife's EAD/employment? If he goes to India on AP.. for how long could he go?
4. Could he take up any job and keep switching till priority date becomes current? Also what happens if and when priority date becomes current?
Thanks.

I will be taking up a new job and I have been told by the new employer that, benifits will start after 30 days.
I presently have insurence through my employer. My understnading is that, insurence stops the day I leave the present employer. Now how do i handle the stop gap in insurence to be on safer side...??
Any help is appreciated...
AFAIK you can continue your insurance coverage as it was from previous employer only difference is that you will have to pay for it. Ask HR or Insurance Agent assigned/responsible for your employer.
Alternatively you can buy short term insurance, i used Fortis many times in past. Its very cheap and will cover you between jobs. Search for short-term coverage.

When I went for H1B stamping my B1 was cancelled and I was told one can not have more than one visa at the same time.
You might be right but my son is with me as of today on the same old B1. H1 might be a different scenario.

I didn't quiet get from your message whether the "08xxxxxxx" has an "A" preceding it. In all probabilty it should.
If it indeed has an "A". It is a A# so you might as well forget about deducing on a visa # being assigned based on the A# on the FP :)
An according the website you referred to, nowhere does he mention about a visa #. The A# being assigned for life has nothing to do with a visa # !
All,
I'm trying to understand if it is a general practice of USCIS to specify an A# on the FP notice. My FP notice has an A# that starts with 08xxxxxxx. I wonder if it is the actual visa number since according to http://www.kkeane.com/general-faq.shtml my number is the visa number:
<QUOTE>
There actually are four separate types of A#. You can tell them apart by the number of digits and the first digit. The first kind is an eight-digit A#. These are manually assigned at local offices. If you have one of these numbers, simply treated it as if it was "0" plus the number. Nine-digit A#'s that start with the digit 1 are used for employment authorization cards, usually related to students. Nine-digit A#'s that start with the digit 3 are used for fingerprint tracking of V visa applicants. All other nine-digit A#'s (these actually always start with a 0) are permanent A#'s and remain permanently with you for life.
Therefore, the rule is: if you are asked for an A# and have one, always give this A#, regardless of whether it starts with a 0, 1 or 3. If you have both a 0-A# and a 1-A# or a 3-A#, then use the one that starts with a 0.

My PD for EB3 was current in the June 2007 bulletin and I applied for AOS on 06/28.

Sorry, unfortunately H1B is biased towards skilled labor. Your major unfortunately does not fall in that category as such. When I say skilled, I'm talking about the sciences, finance, law etc.
Your goal is noble but unfortunately there is no place for you as an employee in the United States on a work visa. You can always try to get married to a US citizen . Much easier path :)

If we plan to send flowers, we should send them to the SAME place, same person, if a 100 different news stations receive these flowers, this would be of no consequence, the ideal person to send these to would be Bill O reiley, God (yea I invoke his name ;) knows that he loves to talk aout himself, and if you get him involved, and throw in the words like , "BUSH wanted us to be able to AOS", he is going to be all over it.
I am going to see if I can send him a note :)
LOL Yeah Bill O' Riley!!!
I was hoping that we could send it to USCIS!
It should be addressed to EMILIO T. GONZALEZ (Director of USCIS). I'll put the address out here once I get it! :)

Folks the solution is simple,
If you believe your wife is not interested in future employment atleast for the next 2 years then do not renew your EAD. (I say 2 yrs because EAD is given now for 2 yrs).
If you have stamping on her passport for h4 then no need for AP.
If the stamping on her passport for h4 has expired then apply for AP (since you can show AP and come back and still be on h4). This appln for AP has to be done atleast 3 months before you need it (consider processing time).
If your wife decides she has to start working then apply for EAD like 4-6 months before preferred emp start date.
I do not have EAD (but eligible to apply for one), still on h1b, visa expired have just AP, so if I need to go back to home land ill show AP and come back and still be on h1, hope this answers all your questions.

Hi All
I have a question regarding visitors visa, my parents got multiple Entry 10 years visa in 2007, but have not visited me so far, but this december my Mom is visitng me and in Feb my father( as to avoid harsh winter weather in East Coast), they will leave back in May 2009.
My Question is will there be any issue as their visa was issued in 2007 but they are visiting now
Do I need to send any new documents( I have moved onto EAD )
Looking forward to hear suggestions.
if they have multiple entry 10 year visa then there should be no problems. just for safe side, ask them to carry your cell number, give them you Passport photocopy, EAD photocopy. Make sure they do not show them unless asked for.

I have my I-140 waiting at NSC from May 01, 2006. On Dec. 05, 2006, I-140 processing time shows as June 01, 2006. Since, it was more than 30 days, my employer called the National Service Center number and they opened a service request and told me to wait 45 days. My lawyer says that USCIS takes 45 days at a minimum to reply, but normally it is 90 days.
Is there anyone out there, who know how to track this service requests or have any experiences with them.

WELCOME TO RETROGRESSION!!!!
I'm from Bangladesh and EB3. As you know the I485 was current in July and i applied along with my EAD and AP. but this month in visa bulletin i found that the date went back to 2002.
My question is: are they going to consider my application current or i stuck in the backlog. my understanding is that the visa bulletin reflects the availibility to send the application....they received my application on July 2nd, 2007.
someone please clarify the matter please.......thanks ahead

If so think again.

I did not say that nor even remotely meant that.
We should try and do all things that can improve our chances of success.
