I appreciate both you guys for keeping this discussion so clean and issue based. I was little worried on my first post that someone might spin it personal. Kudos to your mature responses.
Yes, I honestly think that quantity matters in meeting politicians. What is so clear to us may not be clear to them. Not because they are lesser mortals than us, they have a different perspective. Why and How is entirely not up to me to worry about. Someone has a different view and I can only respect that view. I cannot, and do not, think that I must invest my time in brainwashing anyone. I wouldn't call it a crab mentality either without knowing them personally.
With that said, let me be a devils-advocate, if you will, and ask these questions:
Given ours is a issue-based, goal-based struggle, with Goal & Issue being same for ALL EB immigrants:
--- Why should I expect all immigrants to wear any organization's badge, be dedicated to any particular/one organization, whether that Org is IV/Democrats/Republicans/Congress/BJP
--- Shouldn't I be just worried about who can SHOUT louder about my issue and less worried about the Organization that's making them SHOUT?
-----
Thanks for the discussion again.
I agree, we are an organization and at this point we haven't even asked people to compulsorily donate for Advocacy. I would say, not registering on IV is being extremely narrow-minded and being a crab (benefiting IV?).
Thousands of IV members have created an account on that site, so what is the problem?

Sorry to hear that case is gone to wrong office. The (c)(9)() class of EAD filing instruction is that it must be sent where I485 is being processed.
During infopass visit, officer must have given some clue.
If I were you, I would be sending the supporting documents with a covering letter stating the blunder. This type of mistake should not be uncommon to USCIS offices and they should have procedures to fix it.

I filed I-765 in January and got 1-year EAD last week. I called USCIS today and explained the error. It took a while to explain this to agent but he got it that this is a renewal application on the basis of pending I-485 without available visa number.
He filed service request for the error. As far as he knew, USCIS will send another EAD and send further instruction about 1-year EAD.
I filed EAD/AP together but the EAD I got is not a "Combo Card" (USCIS Term for combined EAD/AP)
I shall keep you posted.

From Murthy.com
" AC21 portability is generally available to an individual who is the beneficiary of an approved I-140 and whose I-485 has been pending at least 180 days. The benefits of AC21 portability are available to any otherwise qualified individual, even if there is not an available visa number for his/her case."
if the PD becomes current and someone files the 485 and then retrogresses, they are the ones that can use this
"As long as the person had previously filed the I-485 when the priority dates were current and that I-485 remains pending, one does not need to have a current priority date in order to change jobs under AC21"
from the link http://www.murthy.com/news/n_porret.html
We are talking two different things here. You are saying about AC-21. The OP is asking about retaining PD. The way you can retain your PD after I-140 approval is :-
You file a new labor with the new employer - once it is approved - you need to file a new I-140 application and attach the old approved application with it - this would ensure that your PD will become the PD from the old case.
Difference with AC21 is - in the case of AC21, you just switch jobs and your current GC process continues - you do not have to file a new labor,140 etc.

frankly this is a drop in the ocean.
we all know that the process is broken. we all know that we face long years of waiting because of retrogression. ask BEC filers how bad things can become suddenly. ask people whose name checks have not cleared in 3 years.
we have our choices. we can wring our hands about who gets receipt notices first and whose ead comes faster. or we can try to be the grassroots organization that immigration voice really is (rather than exclusively an info forum for tracking dates) and stand up to petition for reform
these are just today's irritants. with 1 million applications at various places in the line, there will be many more tomorrow.
please choose wisely.

Is there any advantage choosing a local lawyer? Can some body please suggest attorney in Chicago area.
Some ppl prefer to have local attorney in case they want the attorney to accompany them if & when CIS calls for personal interview.

Yes, we cannot give up just because we got EAD. Due to a silly mistake, most of us eligible were able to file for I-485. It does not matter whether EB2 or EB3. We are LEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
Leaving our family relaitives, pursuing a career and leading family in getting new friends here, immigration delays have been causing nightmares.
Imagine a person who is pursuing American Dream and waiting for Green Card for 10 years? This means the prospective life of (mid 20s to mid 30s) of a guy is lost in pursuing GC? Is this the modern era slavery? Hitech slavery? Green Card should give us more flexibility.
So, united we stand to fight for legal immigration!
Jaihind!

Certainly the layoffs have been on the steady rise since last quarter of 2008. Most layoff's i have heard were either in Oct 2008 or Feb/Mar 2008 and mostly for contractors.
So layoff's are definitely happening, but a lot of full-time emplyoyees are doing better than those in contracting.
in my area i have seen around 350 contractors laid of by a insurance company and also downsizing in the state workforce.

I think Acceptance agents are different than the IRS authorized banks. Agents would merely accept W-7 forms... Where as bank would accept W-7 froms to open a chacking a/c or savvings a/c. More light on acceptance agents would be appreciated.

I have sent the following email to Mr. Tytler.
Although I am not sure how Mr. Tytler would react, I thought, it doesn't hurt to try.
Unfortunately, I do not know any one in the political circles in India. May be members hailing from the New Delhi area could help garner support.
************************************************** *******
Dear Mr. Jagadish Tytler,
I am writing to you from the Seattle area in Washington state of the United States, on behalf of the NRI community in the USA. In December 2005, a group of professionals comprising of software engineers, physicians and the like have started a forum called Immigration Voice that strives for improvements in the outdated and restrictive US Immigration laws that is impacting the NRI community.
Sir, You are very well aware of the contribution in terms of the foreign exchange and investments NRIs bring about in India. I am writing this email to you to make you aware of the efforts of this group, numbering over 1000 members, which is working with Senators and Representatives of the United States.
The website is located at http://www.immigrationvoice.org
The group has solicited contributions from members, and has currently signed up Quinn Gillespie and Associates, a public affairs firm which will lobby our interests with the Senators and Representatives.
We would like to invite you to participate in our efforts, and help us in bringing about greater awareness at a political leadership level.
Thanking you,

Hi,
I got an email saying "we mailed the document to the applicant" and it says the same thing on my uscis protfolio.
I would like to know if this means the case was approved or is it some other document being sent.
When they approved my EAD, it clearly said "Approval notice sent".
When they approve a case then status clearly says 'Case Approved'.
The email "we mailed the document to the applicant" may be anything or nothing, like if they transfer ur case to different service centre, they send a notice. Some time they don't send anything even though the email contradicts it. Keep checking the status, they might update it later if the case has been approved.
Also, for AP keep bugging ur attorney to see if they got it. For EAD, make sure your mail box has your name clearly, otherwise they won't deliver it.

You can enquire with the Canadian authorities if they will collect it and pass it on the US post. If not you can take a U turn once you enter Canada and go back to US to give them the I-94 and take a U turn again to re-enter Canada.
Hold on a second. Taking U-turns on the willy-nilly just like that is not something you can do at the land border. Once he is in Canada, I think he will need valid visa or advanced parole (I dont think he has AP since he hasnt applied for GC at all). So he cant just "Make a U-turn" and if he does, US wont allow him to enter without a visa/AP.
Others, who have used Auto-matic visa revalidation based on I-797 and without current visa stamp, please weigh in on this issue.
I think you should contact a good lawyer because I dont think USCIS customer service is trained to answer this question.

2. There is one letter written wrongly in my name.. can i send or get a new one??
I would greatly appreciate your advise on this
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi friend,
1st question). As per immigration rules,if ur birth is registered on or after 1year of ur birth till date,u got to submit two additional sworn affidavits along with the birth certificate as proof.
So in ur case since ur birth was registered in 2005 and got a new birth certificate in 2005 u need to submit the following :
Birth certificate(which u have now with u..issued in august 2005)
+
Two sworn affidavits from any two blood relatives(mom,dad,siblings,aunt,uncle) older and get notarised
by any attorney/magitrate.The following is the format.
************************************************** ********
AFFIDAVIT REGARDING BIRTH
I __________________ (name) being the _________________ (relationship father, mother, sister, brother, aunt, uncle), to ______________ (FN name), reside at ___________________ (address, including country), do hereby solemnly affirm and state on oath as follows:
I declare that _________________ is my (son/daughter/brother/sister/niece/
nephew). He/She was born on __(Date)_____ in (town, country) and that ______________ (father’s name) is his/her father and _____________ (mother’s name) is his/her mother.
______________________________
Signature of Deponent
AFFIDAVITS MUST BE PROVIDED BY TWO (2) BLOOD RELATIVES, (MOTHER, FATHER, AUNT, UNCLE), AND THIS DOCUMENT MUST BE WITNESSED AND STAMPED BY AN ADVOCATE/NOTARY FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF YOUR COUNTRY.
************************************************** ********
Note :
whatever be the case,combined affidavit will not work.Please ask any two of ur blood relations to give them individually.in my case My dad gave me one affidavit and my aunt gave me one affidavit,coz my mom was in usa that time with me.please check with ur lawyer.this format was 2months old format.i got it done in May 2007.
2 question).Name spelling mispelt in birth certificate needs a combined affidavit from parents and notarised.
Please check with ur lawyer too,
Goodluck,

I'm 15 and I have done several jobs .. they generally don't mind you being that young, most of the times they're amazed :D You have to talk decently etc, like Rev said. Nohing much can go wrong if you make a good, professional impression.
Completely off topic - Lou == Rev??? I was wondering what the heck happened to him.
Completely on topic - to say you NEED to know "AS HTML PHP XML XSLT by heart " is completely ridiculous, what if he is going to design a site for the local barber who just wants some info on the web? Chances are his first job isn't going to require flash, PHP, and XML integration. Then again I've never had a job. :shrug:
