Folks,
Here is the same old Cockney reply from TSC on inquiry for my wife's case through my area congressman:
TSC is currently processing I-485 visas based on filing date order. There are a large amount of cases that are being worked and your case will be worked in receipt date order. With the limited amount of visas that are currently available between now and September 30, 2009, there is no guarantee that your case can be completed before the end of FY2009. It is estimated, that in general, your case will be completed between 45 and 90 days.
Thank you for your inquiry and please do not hesitate to contact us again if you have further questions regarding this case.
Obviously that logic is bull crap, otherwise I also won't have been approved. We have the same receipt date and everything...........I guess there is so much we can do....
SoP
SOP - Tell your congressman you got approved with the same day as your spouse and there are people who got approved in the later dates as well. Ask them to follow up with USCIS with the same. If not since USCIS has sent this info in written, tell them you will take legal action, if this is the reason.

Kufloyd: Did you also see a change in LUD on your spouse's (assuming you filed for dependent) I-485?
The reason i ask that question is that i am exactly in same boat as you are. Case was transferred back and forth between NSC and CSC and it's finally pending at NSC and i saw a soft LUD on my I-485 today, but no change on my wife's I-485. Do don't know, if there's a pattern to it?

The name check takes 2 years anyway, making a mockery of fast processing times. Even VSC, which is the slowest, takes less than 2 yrs for 485.
Wait a minute; I thought the name check is part of the I485 approval (and for those who file I-140 and I-485 concurrently, part of the I-140 approval). It wouldn't make any sense if the I-485 is approved and they are still checking the identity.
Also, the thread has been quiet due to lack of hope regarding the speed of processing centers (Wata, I am with you on the Nebraska one) and the unreliability of promises for improvements.

Besides not signing this so called contract
If you are H1 - as long as you are an employee - the employer has to pay the salary as per H1 papers, whatever be the business issues. If that be the case they can be reported as a violator.
Non solicitation clause should state a time frame - but otherwise most contracts have them
And as long as this is a new or potential employer - its a nice red flag to stay out

possible reason for mysterious rejections :
You are a mail room guy, you go home friday (06/29) and comeback on monday (06/02).
You start the monkey business of timestamping incoming mail, but half an hours into the day (around 8 or 9:00 am), you realize "sshhttt: i did not change the date on my stamp, its still read 06-29-2007". In the classical govt. fashion, you do not bother to go back and restamp the applications with the correct datetime. Not because you are evil, but because you simply don't understand the ramifications of early stamping. You think u are doing the guy a favor, putting him/her early in line.. but guess what... the guy's application is gonna get rejected.
Could this be the case with some apps mysteriously being rejected?
WAAV GREAT LOGIC!!!! HOW COME I CANT THINK THIS WAY TO SOLVE THIS MISTERY. WAAV GENIUS IS HERE. YOU THE MAN. MAN U R VERY SMART. THATS IT. THATS HOW IT HAPPENED. UR IQ MUST BE VERY HIGH. :mad:

I am all for abonding H1B, when did IV promoted H1B program, we have this mess today due to H1B and itz loopholes,
I don't use word slave very lightly, but we need to accept the fact many of H1Bs are handcuffed with current system, We need system similar to Austrialia, Canada a point based system or very similar to Nurses in US they get GC before even coming to US.
H1Bs are truly pulling the wages down, I know I did when I came here I have no argument with anti-immigrants with this subject, but giving GCs to these H1Bs will have fair chance to compete in Market
Corporate leaders such Bill Gates and Senators such as Kennady do know this issue and have deep understanding but they don't give a rat about it,
Please do not say negative things against the H1B visa guys. Remember if it was not for the H1B, you guys would be in ur home countries right now. Let us all please stop abusing the VERY priviledge we have. H1Bs are FREE to change jobs at will. If you dont like your job CHANGE IT or GO BACK. Slaves cannot change jobs OR go back to their own countries. We cannot expect the system to start bowing to our wishes everytime we dont like what we currently have. No i am not an anti immigrant, Yes I am from India and stuck like the rest of you in retrogression. Right now i would walk a million miles to obtain an H1B visa for my spouse who is stuck in limbo coz of this H1B lottery.
Also this discussion is FUTILE. IV now after 2 years of slogging has a "NAME BRAND". Logiclife has explained that this name cannot be changed. It is a good idea to be called "Legal Immigration Voice" but it is TOO late now. Instead of discussing this let us help the Current Immigration Voice name to achieve success.

Could you please explain this a bit. I am not sure if I am understanding this right.
.
My attorney prepared the EVL for my employer to sign. I have handed that over to my boss who has sent it to HR for review. This letter has lot of legal lingo and information related to my LCA and I-140 e.g.,
"We acknowledge that, according to the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. �1154 and 8 U.S.C. �1182(a)(5)(A)), ............"
"We acknowledge that <my name>'s immigration petition filed on <I-140 filing date> listed his job title as <my LCA job title> and <my name>'s current position is in same or similar profession...."
So my concern is why would any employer sign this letter without knowing anything about my LCA, I-140 etc (I had changed job about 240 days after 485 filing). So my current employer may have issues signing this letter.
But my attorney insists that this letter (in same format) needs to be signed in order to respond to the RFE. My thinking is that all this lingo and stuff related to LCA can be eliminated from the letter so that my employer is more comfortable signing it.

No, I did not misunderstand. That reply had no quote included and therefore was directed to the person who opened the thread (see very first post from AkhiChopra) and that has everything to do with salary. :o
I think you misunderstood. The OP is talking about his friend, his company and payment from clients. It has nothing to do with salary

He will have the H1 status until the expiry date. But only thing he may not be able to transfer H1 if there is no other case is pending.
Youre allowed to stay in H1 status for 6 years. If you want to extend it over 6 years, that extension will be based on the EB petition (you need an LC and approved I-140). If that EB petition is denied and denied again thru appeals (MTRs), you are out of status.
Please read: http://www.immigration-information.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5293
Please consult your immigration attorney and do not rely on information posted here, that is your best chance at being assured.

Then suddenly one day I got a message that my parents were seriously sick. I tried but I couldn't get any holidays and thus could not go to India. The next message I got was my parents had passed away and as there was no one to do the last rights the society members had done whatever they could.
Though the moderator asked further postings to be stopped, I just wanted to let folks know that under FMLA (Federal law - Family Medical Leave Act), employers must give a vacation of upto 12 days (paid or unpaid depending on availability of vacation days) when immediate family members expired.

RD 07/02, FP 09/04, PD 05/06
Is approved the same as "card ordered"? Do you see a different LUD than the card ordered LUD?

Dude,
Take your company attorney & HR guy(al) out for a $250 lunch and first build a rapport with them. Tell them about what you need & do tell them politely that if they care about you as an employee, they need to get on with your immigration process.
Nothing unethical, illegal or embarrassing about push your point forward.
There are ppl who will tell you that sth like this would never work. time ot prove me wrong!
Its your future. Take charge.
Haha. That is an accurate assessment at a 50-foot level. I was pretty disillusioned after a couple of years of working. A mixture of what the fuck am I doing, but not really knowing what to do, and all confused because I was at probably the biggest firm around and and a feeling of even if I switch, what's the point? And not having the balls to switch jobs, for the fear of throwing away what I had, mixed with personal struggles with life and not having the social life that I wanted.
In between all this, the desire to get the GC process kicked off came and went, esp. since I wanted to switch positions to a more people oriented role, and the feeling of gosh, do I want to stay in 6+ years in this job - maybe if I file, then I won't want to change jobs.
As you can see, even I am not sure what was going on there. But my personal life and acclimatizing has sorted itself out rather well of late, and I do want to stay here now that I have a really interesting life (and partly out of fear of throwing everything away and moving somewhere new).
Now, I know that IV is not a self-help trauma group, so I will cut short my story here, which has little to do with the raw facts of my immigration situation :)
And yes, I did not participate or know much about the visa process, or IV till recently, and am a recent need based participant, but I hope that does not stop anyone from contributing their ideas to help me out.
*** Also, to the previous poster (nojoke) who said that big companies usually hold off on perms, are you suggesting that I have a better chance at a smaller company then?
UPDATE: My company attorney suggested talking about this in April, and I am nervous about waiting till then in limbo - things are only going bad to worse, I might as well find a job at a place which will sponsor a PERM sooner rather than later.
I request you to PM me if you have any leads for such companies might still be a good bet for filing a PERM.
uhh..damn immigration process..

Why shud he call the anti immigrant by that filthy word when all or most of what that guy conveyed with his post are nothin but pure facts. There r hundreds of gultis doing all sorts of illegal stuff in the name of immigration without any shame. Theres a saying that goes like..."If u tell someone as it is, he protests and kicks on ur chest" which seems very appropriate here.
