I found an article that explains the 180 day rule a little better. I believe it is called section 245(k). You should definitely get advice through an experienced attorney to make sure.

I said they decided to process EB2 140s over EB3 140s because there were more approvable cases in the former set. I did not say they are approving 140s based on PD.
I didn't imply that you were saying that USCIS is approving based on PD's. I agree with your statement in full that they processed EB2 I140's to utilize the visa numbers.
But, approving that are not eligible for those visa numbers (like mine) are also happening in abundance and that to me is just weird. It is prioritizing one application over another for no apparent reason.
I have no complaints as I benefitted from it but on the other hand it makes me fume as my other has been pending forever.

Hi,
My EB3 Priority date is Feb 2004. I have approved I-140 and have a copy of approval I-140
notice. I have not filed 485. This is my 10th year in H1b visa.
My H1B visa is ending in Nov 2010. Due to family situation, I am planning to go to
India for 1 year, My employer may or may not apply for my H1B renewal.
If my current employer cancels my approved I-140 & did not extend my H1b visa, Is it
possible for me to port that approved I-140 priority date (Feb 2004) when I am filing Green card through some other employer in the EB2 or EB1 category in
the future ?
Any one, Please kindly give your suggestions.
Thanks
Yes. Make sure you get copies of the approval notice of the I-140 before you part company (no pun intended). This will be the proof you require to port your priority date to another EB/I-140 some other time. This will be valid even if your employer revokes the I-140. The only instance this will be invalid is if the I-140 is revoked because of fraud or misrepresentation.
I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice. When in doubt, consult a qualified attorney.

I've a terrible situation now:
My current H1 is probably going to be cancelled by Apr 30th , I'm looking for a Job on my EAD and will hopefully get one soon by Apr 30th.
However H1 cancellation means H4 will get auto-cancelled - Is that true ? If yes, then my spouse will lose her status ?? She couldn't apply for her "derivative 485" when I filed mine in July 2007 due to wrong DOB on Birth Certificate. Pricipal Applicant's priority Date is Mar 2005 and EB3-I and there is no signs for it to be current within next 3-4 years.
What are my spouse's options without falling out of status or leaving the country and remain separated for 3-4 yrs or more years till the PD gets current ? We have a Kid who is US citizen.
Thanks much!

I think all it is saying is that you need to submit the approved labor certification application with your i-140/485 concurrent application, as far as i can remember my lawyer sent in my approved labor cert appli with my concurrent filing appli.. although please check with ur lawyer...
This is FAQ from USCIS website:
Q1: Will USCIS reject a concurrently filed EB I-140/I-485 case if it is lacking a required Labor Certification?
A1. USCIS will not accept an I-140 based on a required labor certification application if the approved labor certification application is not submitted in connection with the filing. USCIS will not accept a concurrently filed Form I-485 if the required Form I-140 is rejected for lack of an approved labor certification application.
-----------------------------------------------
Anyone knows what that means? I have filed 140/485 concurrently on July 2nd 2007. However, I never received original LC document and my lawyer said it is okay to file 140 without original LC document, USCIS will collect it from DOL. Do you think this will affect me?
Thanks

Barking dogs seldom bite. He is just another Lou Dobbs Please ignore him. There is no way he can change the right to cictizenship for children born in the USA. It is next to impossible since it is a part of the constitution. It is very difficult to change something that is linked to the constitution. So, ignore this "BARKING DOG."
Just on the lighter side...
Definitely not when biting!!!..
So, a barking dog will still bite, but it stops barking just b4 that..:). So the old adage still holds good..

My Labor has been approved around May 20 2007 and my employer received a letter from DOL stating the same, but the Lawyer says he never got the original Labor certificate. Now I've to file my 140 and 485 together and my lawyer is saying that he'll contact DOL and see what's going on, but he says that we can file 140 and 485 concurrently with the piece of evidence we have (the letter from DOL to my employer saying that my labor has been approved).
Will it be any problem with USCIS if we proceed this way ??

One thing is for sure, regardless of the intent of the law to facilitate immigration of people with graduate degrees in STEM, USCIS will make sure to get into the weeds of proving or disproving that either the degree is not really technical and/or the field is not related to the degree.
It is so easy to get into fields of enigneering and technology that are not directly related to your "field of graduate studies" but you just happened ending up in that field by virtue of opportunities that came across in your professional life. Such fields could be classified as "unrelated" by USCIS even though, execution of job in that field may not be possible without gaining knowledge in the "actual field of study".
Lawmakers make laws to make things easier for people and organizations like DOL and USCIS leave no stone unturned to use the very same laws to make people's lives hell.

Hi
I was under the impression that there would be some talks about the discussed bills on floor this week.I see no signs of any debate or any discussion.I have some read some posts saying that nothing would happen this year. This really confuses me as I had & I think many of us had hopes that coming weeks would decide something.
I would appreciate if someone could give everyone very clear picture of what going on ?
Thanks

If that's the case why should they pre-adjudicate 485s? Lot of guys getting REFs whose PD is 2003. If USCIS wants to approve after 3-4 years, they would not preapprove 485s. That logic won't work out.
If you think out-off-box.... guess what? If US-govt wants to give employment-based-green card based on priority date. Then there won�t be any new immigration law in place without clearing Backlog center cases/queue and I140.
So what... As per the labor department web site, the DOL needs another 17/18 months to clear all pending labors.
I guess any new bill to become law will take another 19 to 24 months. Keep your spirit going to support the best immigration-bill.
My 2 cents.

I have got extension on my H1 after completing 6 years.
My wife has been on H4 till now.
Is she eligible to get a new H1?
Hi,
I just got my 2nd 3 year extension (Nov 2006 to Nov 2009) on my H1B after completing six years.
My PD is June 2005 and I-140 approved on July 2006. I am thinking of
changing my job. I am puzzling about the following questions:
1. Can I change the job and use my 3 year extension for the next job?
2. Can I keep my PD of June 2005 if my current employer doesn't revoke
my I-140 ?
3. If I apply for GC again with new employer and get my I-140 approved , can
I keep getting 3 year extensions on that job ?
PLEASE HELP!.
Thank you,

How do you know that your 485 was approved even if NC was pending? Does your GC - physical card or the approval notice/emails - indicate that your approval is contingent on NC?
The day before my approval email I spoke to an IO at NSC using POJ method. They said, my case has been assigned to an officer. when i asked my name check status, she said, 180 day rule you don't have to worry.

Dear All,
Today, one of my Friend�s I-485 got returned from Mail room due to Filing fee missing.
He is 100% sure that he attached 325$+70$ filing fee along with application, he has photocopy too to prove his stand.
He is lucky, that he is re- filing it again, my question is , what happens, if the file get returned due to mail room clerks error . Can we refile again after 17th Aug,2007 ?
What proof we have to make sure that we filed properly, will USCIS honor our proof ( that is photocopy of all the document we retain ) as a proof that we filed properly.

Please dont gets your hopes too high. I am not saying this out of scepticism but out of the depression and pain I experienced on july 2 when the evil uscis said they will reject all 485 applications.
I understand the good natured thought behind IV stating this possibility of "good news", but they should have held off on the announcement until it was confirmed. So many people are unnecessarily getting excited. god forbid if this news fails tommorow I can only imagine the pain the people would experience.
I can only pray and I will pray without getting excited.
