Hello all,
Is there a law that grant green card for a person who's been in the States legally for more than 10 years?
Thanks
No, not that for 10 years.
Howeve, the I-485 can be filed based on residency, if the applicant has been US resident since before Jan 1st, 1972.
The applicant need to
1. secure a signed SSA-795 from the individual indicating the beginning and ending dates of all periods of residence in the U.S. The statement does not have to include the complete street address. The town and/or State is sufficient.
2. a statement which shows no absence of longer than 6 months is sufficient to determine continuous residence in the U.S. since before January 1, 1972.

Please check my question in blue below
Fitz,
Following is some clarification that I got from my Lawyer..
1) Will there be any problem if I am not able to make it back on Oct-1st, due to any unforeseen reason, If 485 is already received by USCIS and pending?
a) You need to be physically present here when I-485 is filed. After that, it doesn't matter where you are. At some point you may be scheduled for fingerprinting, but you will likely have months for that.
Is this true? So, you don't have to be in US during the entire process of I-485 application?
2) If we leave on TN after filing AOS is there any chance that USCIS will consider the AOS request abandoned even if we return on Oct-1st in H status?
a) An I-485 can't be abandoned simply because you left the USA
3) Once we file 485 do we need to wait for the receipt before traveling abroad?
a) No.

This is the always problem with USCIS in porting PD. In my case they have put PD as 485 application received date. The only solution to this is ..Keep your attorney in the loop and ask them to send letters repeatedly and call the customer service center repeatedly..
There is no other way you can correct the PD. In my case I had an interview with officer and we gave both i-140 documents and told officer PD was printed wrong on interview letter. Officer said she will look into it and we dont know whether she corrected it or not.
Once your dates are current, please keep calling them and follow up thru AILA and congressman and senators office etc..This task can be done by your attorney also.

Please take the above poll.
In my case, company is paying for me alone. I have to pay attorney fee and filing fee for my wife.
Depends on the employed company's policy and the agreement given to you initially with this regards. My company policy is they will cover all expenses/fees related to Green Card, except for I-131 for employee. This has to be taken care by employee themselves. For dependents they will NOT cover any expenses/fees and we have to pay, but they will do the paper work and will file for you. We have to just pay the appropriate fees. Also we do not have external law firm doing the paper work, the company has its own legal department with immigration attorney's who does the paper work.

I have interview for AOS employment based on June 20th, 2006. The letter simply says get passport and I94. However i am planning to take all documents with me.
Here are my case details:
- Labor was filed in 2001 Nov in MI
- 140 approved in Oct 2003
- 485 filed in Jan 2004
- changed employer in 2004 Nov on EAD
- RFE for employment letter in Mar 2004
- Case transfered to local office (Newark), May 2005
- 3 EAD renewals, 3 AP renewals
- 25 % more salary than old job. Title in old job was programmer/analyst.
- New job when joined was Systems Analyst.
- For RFE response, supplied a good letter with same job description.
- The current JOb is NJ with a well known insurance company.
- Recently i got promoted to Information systems Consultant
Now my Qs are
- What can i expect during the interview?
- Anyone with similar experience, can you share ur experience?
- Change in titles, more salary, labor being from a different state etc are
making me very nervous
- Are there chances that i get rejected/approved same day? if rejected, will be disastrous as i am not H1 anymore?
Most of the time they will just verify some of your application details verbally. The fact that this is an AOS interview should give you positive hope instead of negative feelings. In my experience they will never schedule an appointment if they have queries or doubts about your status, bro.

There should not be more than 1 pay period delay after you leave your job to get your settlement cheque. This has nothing to do with him not getting paid from the client etc. According to H1B law, you(employee) need to get paid every month(by the employer), period. Client does not comes in the picture.
You can report to DOL... in that case DOL will pay you your dues and make sure your employer pays back the money to DOL with interest and penalties, no employer wanna go there... Last time it happened to me, I told my employer that I'll file a claim with DOL and all of a sudden he became friendly and paid off my dues promptly.
Read thru these links : http://www.dol.gov/compliance/topics/wages-other-last-paycheck.htm
Call them and they will send you a form for you to fill up and send across to them for not getting your last paycheck :

Hello all
starting Jan 19th 2010, all the previous forms for non-immigrant visa (DS 156, 157 and 158) are removed and one single form DS 160 is introduced. I am trying to fill that for my parents and this form is an online form and one of the questions in page 1 is "your full name in native alphabet". I remember filling that for my H1 previously where I take the printouts and write my name in that box in my native language. the new form however doesn't let you save or move forward with an empty box. the only other option there is "do not apply" and not sure if that is the right way of doing it (right now its the only way I can fill this form)
anyone who filled this form recently - can you please share what you did?
Thanks
Praveen

Hi friends!
I have applied for my I-485 in June 2007.
This is what i got on 29 Nov-2007
On November 29, 2007, we mailed you a decision on your I485, APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS
and on Dec 11th my status changed to
On December 11, 2007, the post office returned our last written notice on this case as undeliverable
My attorney got letters that my wife and daughter got denied as mine was denied..i am runing out of time and still do not know why it was denied..
we are at the same address where we got our EAD's and AP's and we have been checking the mail box every day to find out the reason.
if somebody who knows or gone through the same please share with me what you did and what happened.
thanks a lot.
Ramana.
If your atterney got letters of your wife and kid, yours should had been sent to him too. It is possible that the address on your 485 has some mistake. Ask your atterney to check that with USCIS, and ask the decision be sent again. Your atterney probeblely has done this already.
People normally got a RFE or Intent to deny befor final decision. If the address on the 485 was wrong, your atterney wouldn't get those either. His not responding could result in abandenonment denial. It looks like there is a good chance that is what happened.

Hi Charles,
Thank you for taking the time to reply. Do you think that the appeal has any chance to succeed?
The current perm was applied for senior developer. While the appeal is pending, can my company apply for a new perm for a different position like enterprise architect?
Thanks
Dexter,
In addition to what the attorney wrote, PERM appeals take forever. So the best would be to re-apply for a new PERM.

This kind of happened to me. Got the AP approval email then after 4 days got EAD approval email. Got EAD card in the mail a week after that.
And surprisingly got AP in mail a whole week after that. Looking at the AP
envelope it was postmarked after the EAD card was actually put in mail.
So it might be that your AP is on its way. But 30 days sounds a lot of
time. I would try and talk to the customer service and open a SR.
