The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), the section of government law that guides immigration, specifically states that any non-immigrant alien visitor to the United States must have a passport that is valid for 6 months beyond the intended period of admission. That is to say that if your program or employment runs until May of 2008 you must have a passport that is valid until at least November of 2008. If the alien visitor is from a country that is in agreement with the United States to automatically assume that the alien's passport is valid for 6 months past the passports expiration. These countries are referred to as 6 month countries. That simply means that if the alien is from for ex. India and the passport date will expire before the end of of program date, officers are allowed to make the I-94 valid until the end of the passport. If the alien is not from a 6 month country the officer can only admit the alien with an admission date on the I-94 with a date that is 6 months before the passport expires. Officers at airports and deferred inspection offices do not have the authority, at a later date, after a new passport has been obtained, to change the original I-94 to the date that would have been given at the original time of entry had the passport been valid for 6 months beyond intended period of entry. The alien must request an extension of stay with an explanation submitted to the USCIS office, no fee is required, and a new I-94 with the appropriate date will be issued. However, if you call USCIS and are fortunate enough to get to speak to someone, that person, an information officer, with 2-5 weeks training, will tell you a CBP Officer can change it. Some officers will change the I-94, however, they have no authority to do so and can face penalties for doing so.

Hello,
I am sure others might have noticed that 485 processing dates at NSC (for example) have literally crawled from the beginning of the year to now. Here are the processing dates (per USCIS status).
https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/jsps/Processtimes.jsp?SeviceCenter=NSC
12/15/2007 Status - 04/24/2007
01/15/2008 - 07/19/2007
06/15/2008 - 07/28/2007
Thats roughly 9/10 days worth of 485 processing from mid-Jan to mid-Jun 2008. I wonder what the processing date looks like for the mid-July status update (which should probably be out tomorrow).
For one thing - there would be thousands of applications between 07/19 and 07/28 (mine being one of those :D) and the other is that the USCIS doesnt pre-adjudicate. Since the PD has only moved recently, the processing dates didnt move that rapidly

Let us get opinion of others on this. Should we write to law-makers to address this issue. Atleast these kids should not suffer. If they have got their most of the education here in US, they should be be given permnent residence before they go to college.

You can just walkin to Dr Stern office. Even if you have an appointment with them, you may have to wait 0.5-1.5 hours depending on the time you go. If you go on weekend or weekdays after 5 you may have to wait longer but afternoon should be faster. And there fee may be more than $350 if you need to get shots and xray. Hope this help.
If you call them recp. will tell that appt is required but actually it is just walk-in and you may not get any preference ver people who walked-in.
Aquarianf - Thanks for the useful info!

Okay. I was able to talk to my attorney just a few minutes ago. He said, to do interfiling , you do not need to have PD current based on new I-140 as this is just a case update with new 140 information. He said that in any case, your 485 will be picked based on PD. I found him very very confident when he was telling me all this info to me.

I recently got my wife's PP renewed from DC. not NY sorry
Hello All -
I am planning to get my PP renewed at the NY consulate and had a couple of questions and I was hoping someone could shed some light on them.
i) The DC website states that one can *only* apply 6 months before expiration date but the NY website does not? Mine is going to expire in ~8 months. Anyone know if it is 6 mo across all consulates?
You may have to call them up for this info
ii) They have it in big red font that the photograph should be 3.5 cm * 3.5 cm, the US standard PP size is 50 mm * 50 mm .. any ideas where I can get them done in the right dimension?
I did it at home - using my digital camera and photoshop :) . There are tons of places that would click the PP photographs!!
iii) If applied in person do they issue the PP the same evening?
You can't collect it that evening. The will fedex it to you within a week
Thanks in advance to anyone who can share their experience esp. at the NY consulate

Any advise/comments?
My wife worked as a full time employee and resigned after the delivery from Oct'08. She was paid the sick pay through a third party insurance and these wages are missing in the W-2. I tried contacting her employer and also wrote emails saying I would complain to IRS if they fail to provide a corrected W2. Today is 02/14 and we still didn't receive a new W2 for the sick pay or a corrected W2.
1) What consequences the employer would have to face if they fail to report correct wages on W2?
2) Does IRS is concerned about missing wages that are 1-2K?
3) Do you think I should complain to IRS?
I am planning to lodge an official complaint on Monday 02/16. I suppose it was a deadline date for all employers to provide W2 or a corrected one.

I want to start a new EB2 application but my manager is not willing. Actually, my labor is MS + 2 years but my attorney thought my I-140 will get rejected since I have included 1 month of internship in those 2 years of experience. I have masters + over 8 years of progressive experience. Working in the position over 6 years. Not blaming anyone just ranting because I don't want to change jobs now.
Thanks,

I am primary applicant on our 485 application. Mine and my daughters case doesn't show any LUD. But my husband's status changed to case transferred to local USCIS office. He was on H4 for 6 years and have not used EAD yet. No gaps in Visas. no law violatiobns. Prerry Straight forward case. Recently we applied for Online EAD Renewal.
Any idea why his case might have got transferred ? What should we expect next?
I am really worried.

Do I need to post my question on this thread or I can pass it on before in time to StarSun or you? B'cause posting my GC issue with personal information would not look appropriate on a public forum.
Let me know.
If you have privacy concerns (you should not be as everyone is identified only by their usernames on IV forum) you can email starsun and then be available to ask it yourself in the call

what about www.hitechslaves.com
You guys really have to give a deep thought before you suggest names that contain the word slave....
The argument goes like this : America is a great country. We do not want slavery. Slave labor would undercut citizen salaries. Slave labor should be abolished..Hey..These people call themselves slaves...Let's abolish H1B program...H1b must be abolished...
Now see where the argument ended up...Think completely what you are getting into...

I don't own a D70 or know of anyone, but sometimes I just wonder if it's the hands in control of the device that have a lack of experience and blame it on the equipment.
Rest assured that if that's the camera of your choosing, buy it and I'm sure that you will be fine most likely. There are plenty of happy D70 owners that you're NOT hearing from, they are out taking photos!
The Canon 10D was plagued by forum reports of backfocusing, and perhaps there were a few/some that exhibited this behavior. But the majority do not and with everything, there may be a few bad apples in the bunch.
Buy your gear and don't worry so much about the forum problems you read about. You have a warranty if something just happens to be not right.

First thing is why members have found that title is scary? I dont think it is scary......it might attract your attention. Probably most of people who got scared might be using EAD or are considering using it.<br><br>
I think using AC21 does not imply that 485 will be denied.<br><br> In a hypothetical situation lets assume it is denied we need to find why it is being denied? One can always switch to h1b (with previous employer - should be valid when AOS is denied) by going to home country and getting h1b stamp on passport but even before you have to do it you can appeal in court and you will be able to stay here.
<br><br> I was discussing the same issue today with Ron Gotcher ( you can find it on his website as I have the same userid) and he said unless you are inadmissible or commit a fraud or have broken immigration law in past AOS is not denied. Just in case if you have done any of the above three things then your AOS can be denied and you can not even get any type of non immigrant visa..........<br><br> For using AC21 just make sure that:<br><br>
140 is approved<br><br>Your GC sponsor will not revoke 140<br><br>Your GC job description and new EAD job description are same or similar (title does not matter) <br><br> ONet code for both the jobs match.<br><br><br><br> If you ensure the above things then there is no issue using EAD for a job after 180 day of filing 485.<br><br> Hope this helps and people who got scared does not gives me red dots for speaking aloud.
<br><br> Support IV and make the difference for yourself and everyone else in the immigrant community.
Thanks for your input.

My 485 was apporved in July 2010 and have not recieved the card yet. I have contacted with couple of Service Request for non-delivery of permanent cards. First reply from USCIS was that my case was waiting for finger printing information from my local USICS was backlogged for appointments. So, I have told to wait for 60 days for either FP notice or physical green card. After 60 days, I have called them and another service request was created and the reply was completely irrelavant as they says my address was updated for my query about non-delivery of GC.
Is there any other escalation request that I can made for deliveriy the GC or the FP notice? whenever I called the USICS are creating the SR and have to wait for answers like above.
I have recieved the 485 approval notices (for both of us) on July itself but waiting for cards now. Are anyone with the same boat ? Or Is the unusual case?
Thanks
