So you apply about 4 months in advance? Are you then not losing about 3 months of your previous validity due to this practice?

I never knew that one can become moderator/admin by posting more posts to get attention of Pappu. ;)
There is a thin like between spam and high publicity. Chandu never crossed this.
Those who are yet to send the letters, please send it. Those who already sent them, please ask your friends. Those who feel more strong about GC and believe that IV can work for our benefit, print 10 copies at least and get the signatures from your friends directly.
All in all, let use +ve energy that will make this campaign successful, rather than questioning other motivated members' intentions.

I have got FP appt notice 7 days back. I am July 2nd filer, filed at NSC, but transferred to CSC and then back to NSC. Also, got AP and EAD approved long time back from CSC.
I had seen a similar thread for NSC->CSC->NSC filers, but can't seem to find it anymore---did anyone whose cases got transferred to CSC receive FP notice?
I am a July 2nd filer, EAD/AP approved from CSC, case transferred back to NSC back in early Sept--still waiting for FP notice for over 4 months now.
PS: I am not desperate for FP notice---and i know it's going to be several years wait--just want to get the FP done and move to an apartment with lesser rent :-)

Got a BIG RFE for 7th yr extension from CSC PP.
I have applied for 485 (I140 approved), and have EAD/AP from same employer last yr.
I got this RFE and employer may not have/provide all the documents,
My question is can we withdraw H1 and then work on EAD?
Will that adversely affect my case for AOS?
Main list of items required from me,
Last 3 yrs W2, last 3 yr taxes, all i-94 etc. -- No biggie since I have always been working for big company for past 10 yrs. till In switched to this smaller firm last yr.
Main list of docs required from company
1. Offer letter to me.
2. Client letters
3. Last 3 yrs quarterly wage reports with ALL employees SSNs, pays etc.!
4. Last 3 yrs Tax returns
5. Last 3 yrs W2s and W3s for ALL employees
How in the world is one supposed to provide all those ??!! I spoke to the employer, he's very busy (not desi but still a small firm with 1-2 million turnover and maybe 4-500,000 income..)
I can even change employer if needed, but I need to know if it's okay to cancel or withdraw this application of H1B and if that will cause USCIS to reopen my approved I140 or issue RFE for same list of docs at the time I file AC21.
What should I do if employer doesn't comply and just strings me along?
My H1B ends in April first week and Wife's H4 is long expired, We were planning only to keep my h1b as safty..

I never had original or any kind of birth certificate nor have it now , As part of GC application I have provided a certificate issued to me by Indian embassy in 2004 stating birth date, location with passport number as reference. Not sure if any Indian consulate in USA are providing that anymore.
I see lot of posts about birth certificate, I sure thought I would have to go through that process but I was never asked to provide anything more than what I have provided to USCIS. May be the rules are different now or it depends on case to case.
We should not be going through that painful process of chasing people in India to get birth certificate. I strongly feel that Indian embassy should provide it. It could be one of things that would generate some income and add value to the services Indian embassy provide.
Can you please help me with this?...I have already submitted the affidavit copy and now they want it from Registrar office. Has any one got it from registrar office in India? if so, how difficult it is and what is the procedure?
"A photocopy of a birth certificate issued by the Local Registrar if the person named above was born in a city, or
A photocopy of a birth certificate issued by the Additional District Registrar’s office if the person named above was born in a village.
If a birth certificate does not list the names of both mother and father, or the child, secondary evidence must be submitted to establish parentage. Secondary evidence includes, but is not limited to , copies of: medical records, school records, census records, government-issues identity cards, religious records and/or affidavits from at least TWO persons alive at the time of birth. The oldest available evidence that lists the names of both parents should be submitted."
Thank you!

I would add this one from Shangri-la, by Mark Knopfler:
"We may never love again, listening to the music of guitars...". That's true. Enjoy your moment today.
Since no one has come out with English translation, here is my version. oomshiva, Please feel free to correct it as you are the author
Life is short, enjoy its every moment
In Office and at Home, enjoy and just enjoy
Did get Chicken Masala, be happy with fast food
No time for gym today, walk a little and be happy
Didn't see a friend today, watch TV and be happy
Can't go to home country, make a call and be happy
Somebody is upset with you, ignore/remember him and be happy
You can't see him/her, listen to that voice and be happy
That person can't be yours, just remember and be happy
Planned to do MBA, so what if you are in software, be happy
Didn't get Laptop, With desktop be happy
Yesterday is gone, recall fond memories and be happy
Worried about future, stay in dreams and be happy
These times will pass, enjoy your present to the fullest and be happy
Life is short, enjoy its every moment
and may I add this one line
Enjoy your today to the fullest
who knows ..
there may be no tomorrow
===============================
Sanan has written this line
Green Card nahin mila H1 me he Khush raho ??
Translation: Didn't get Green Card, Be happy with H1
=================================================
This is my first post. May I make a request that if you post anything in non-english, please provide english translation. Thanks!
Here is a question for all those people who are good in Hindi --
What is the english word for "punarchakravat" punar-chakra-vat
Whay I am trying to say is that evenfor Hindi speakers it is possible that they may not get every word of it.
I will post answer in a little while.
Enjoy

Hello guys,
......................
4. PIO card has the passport number of my son on it...the passport will expire when he is five year old. So do I get a new passport number? If so what happens to the PIO card? Do I need to get a new one?
.............
Thanks
Yes, a new passport ( from one of the US embassies in India). I don't think it is a new PIO card, but the new passport number will be 'annotated' in the Passport ( Indian embassies in US charge $20 for that ).

Last year there were not unused visas.
Worldwide Employment-Based preference limit: 147,148
Actual number of EB visas issued: 154,458
Check Immigrant visas FY 2007 (http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/FY07AnnualReportTableV.pdf)
That is true. but it only happened because of the aggressive Visa Date setting of DOS and hence the Visa Fiasco..
I dont think you can expect something similar this year

Let the Green Card saga not drive us to desperation... nothing is worth more than family ...

I think the contributions are only from those who visit this forum regularly on a day to day basis. I think there are just many people who might have just registered to get some updates but don't necessarily visit this or any other forum regularly.
A lot of people I know get their updates from the web site of one of the law firms, but don't necessarily participate in this or any other forum. Otherwise, they just carry on with their lives hoping some law will pass some day.
Some of those to whom I have talked about contributing to IV have politely said they will take a look at it. Otherwise, I feel they have just been institutionalized in their current setup and lives. I don't think the message has really reached them that there is a need to participate and contribute in a organization like IV and try and make a difference.

This means that even for applicants for whom PD is current today for eg: EB2 ROW, will not be able to apply for concurrent I-140/I-485, if this rule is accepted.

One of my friend got EAD 2 year back even though his priority date was not came. Ofcourse this was even b4 this mess created USCIS. He was still using his H1 till couple months back, he is afraid of USCIS may roll back his EAD since PD is not yet reached.
I do heared 11 people from Infxxxx company got EAD even though their PD was not current. They are saying by mistake send the package but they got EAD.
I do know personally that person on the 1st paragraph, on the 2nd paragraph I dont have any evidence.....
Just sharing this information to help this thread, hope there may be lot more cases got EAD without PD even before this mess they have created.:D
You don't need your PD to be current for EAD/AP

Newsflash: USA is a country (with a boundary). USA has a national anthem. They like to sing it, everywhere. If it makes them happy when I sing it, I will sing it too. It is like visiting someone's home and you are asked to take off your shoes at the entrance. Maybe you don't agree with it, but out of respect to the host it is a nice thing to do.
Relax and be more generous! I think you have more boundaries in you than this country has.
(If USA goes to war with my home country, I think they will trust me less if I come here and live and refuse to sing the national anthem...)
If you dont take off the shoes at the entrance, maybe you are showing disrespect.
But by not singing their NAnthem, dont think it means disrespect !
If we sing each nation's anthem and leave out theirs, this will mean disrespect. !
I think we are not yet permenant residents of this country .. so singing the NAnthem does not look appropriate. But due compliments to Pankaj, He has a wonderful voice!
You never know what will happen to our GCs!! So lets remmember where we are from & what state we are now, that will help us to be more pragmatic.
And about the war thing, my conscience may not permit me to support another nation at this point in time!!
Please dont be offended , just sharing thoughts!
