It's interesting that people rely on consultants and body shoppers to enter this country and then curse them.
I doubt that so many people would have entered the US if it hadn't been for these very consultants and body-shoppers. Everyone knows that they pay less and take a cut of the salary. People curse them all the time and yet when it's convenient, they'll use them to get things like H1B application, labor substitution, etc. done.
I am on an H-1B visa I had a confusion regarding my wife's case. She is on H4 visa and her H4 visa was extended to September, 2009 when I changed my employer (XXX) last year. However, her passport carries H4 visa which expires in Oct. 2007 (this was through my previous employer, YYY). Both our I-485 are pending and we both received our EAD last month. She wants to use her EAD to work in future.
A twist is that a consultant had filed for her H-1B this April and we don't know if her H-1B came through or not. He is not telling us. We just don't want to deal with that scumbag. Can we just ignore him and forget about it? Since her I-485 is pending she has a lawful status (Pending AOS), right? Please let me know what you think.

Did anyone get their 140 approved from Vermont?
My 140 and 485 were filed late July 07 in Nebrasks and I got notices stating the 485 was transferred to Texas and 140 was being processed in Vermont.
The Vermont processing time for 140s has been stagnant at April 2006 for a long time.
Wondering if anyone has any updates on this.
Thanks in advance.

Indian Government sources had said that the Bureau of Diplomatic Security had contacted the ministry of external affairs (MEA), India around the time Mr Pacheco was incarcerated for his alleged involvement in the mysterious death of his girlfriend Nadia Torrado � he was in jail from July 9 till July 26, when he was awarded bail. He is a former Goa, India tourism minister Francisco Xavier �Mickky� Pacheco was caught on the backfoot on Sunday once again as reports surfaced that the US State Department�s Bureau of Diplomatic Security had informed India that Mr Pacheco might be involved in a big immigration and money laundering racket.
Mr Pacheco used to operate an employment agency along with his estranged wife Sara Pacheco which specialized in finding employment for Goans abroad. But according to the former minister, he has had nothing to do with the agency since he separated from his wife around four years back.
Mr. Mickey Pacheco has been accused by the US Bureau of Diplomatic Security of running an international immigration and money-laundering racket. The bureau got in touch with the external affairs ministry through the US embassy in Delhi and reportedly backed its allegations with documents and details of banking transactions. The ministry then passed on the information to the CBI. The evidence is being described as substantive. According to the US Bureau of Diplomatic Security report, Pacheco had 15 million dollars in his account in the US. He recently transferred 2 million dollars to India.

I am suggesting we should write to White House and to the Ben Bernanke in Mass and draw their attention towards a million people waiting for their green cards, logically they should have already got it(10 years waiting is illogical) but if USCIS use Visa recapture these people can get green cards and green cards to these people means a million new house buyers in the market new cars buyers etc etc. Everybody is going to get green card one day, why not now..That will help bail out the housing market. I'm sure it'll strike a cord with the lawmakers as it will benefit them politically....

My cousin is getting married to a US citizen in February 2009. I want to get information about K3 visa for spouse of US citizen. My questions are:
1. I have heard that it takes long time to get K3 visa, is that true?
Yes it is true that the K3 visa may take a year and the spouse must remain in the home country during that time.
2. If the above statement is true then what other visa option is best for her, visitor or fiance visa (K1 visa)?
She can try for K1 visa but it must be filed now and she must come to the US before marriage. The K1 visa processing can take a few months so your cousin may be running out of time.
3. Is it necessary that immigrant visa petition (greencard) is in process before applying for K3 visa?
The K3 is the greencard process and it can only be filed after the marriage has occurred.
Thank you all in advance for your help!!!!

Hello,
I am one of those cases where no one can get my name right. This time my visa stamp has an FNU against my first name.
I have a valid SSN, valid California DL and a valid California marriage certificate. The I-797 is not a blanket petition. It has my name as I wish it to be. I used my I-797 to get my DL couple of years back.
The question is, will the FNU create any problems at the port of entry? Will it create problems when I renew my H1-B later this year?
How would I enter my name on the I-94? As on the petition or as on the visa?
Thank you in advance.

Hello All,
I am travelling in June to India, during that trip I have to stamp my H1B visa at Mumbai or Delhi. Does any one has a recent experience at Mumbai consulate about visa interview? Does anyone knows current acceptance percentage at Mumbai or delhi consulate? Is it safer to travel in the economic crisis?
At the same time I have heard some rumors regarding rejection at Port of Entry is that true. Anyone from this group has faced such situation?
Thanks in advance

I am creating this post to benefit all.
Also this case is about my friend.
He shared all this information with me.
This is a Pittsburgh PA based case, YMMV.
My friend who has an approved labor/i140 and also a pending i485, received a news that his father was ill in India. He wanted to fly to India right away but his AP had expired. Here is what our Internal Immigration lawyer suggested him....
"You must go to the district office to screen and make a determination as to whether your situation is a qualifying emergency. They are responsible for accepting and processing the I-131 in emergency situations. Here is a link to the address and appointment procedure for the Pittsburgh office. https://egov.uscis.gov/crisgwi/go?action=offices.detail&office=PIT&OfficeLocator.office_type=LO&OfficeLocator.zipcode=15220 You should take a completed I-131, $305 filing fee, 2 passport photos, passport (and copy), I-94 copy and evidence of your father�s situation. Remember that you have to prove that this is a medical emergency."
So he took an Infopass appointment, which he got for the very next day! He then visited the Pittsburgh local office (which is normally not so busy) with a completed i-131, photos, fees, passport, copy of passport, i-94 and a FAX proof from India Doctors which explained his fathers situation.
An interview took place, where they asked expected questions and then an Internal Director approved. He was told to wait for 1 hour and he was handed 2 copies of temporary Advance Parole which is valid for 4 months.
I myself was wondering if one can get emergency advance parole and this example shows that if you show all the proof and go to a local office they will help you as much as possible and also give you an AP within 1-2 hours.
(The only bad thing is, my friend will have to spend $305 again for an approval which lasts for 1 or 2 years)
Hope this helps you all.

Not sure about the first question. SKIL bill will exempt any advanced degree from US or Advanced degree in STEM from outside + 3 Years. PACE, TALENT and the current CIR only exempt STEM Advanced degree + 3 Yrs
I am not totally sure. I recall reading one amendment where they mentioned 203(b) in conjunction with this - which means EB2 qualification.

I actually went for stamping in my 4th year, that's after extending my H1 after the first 3 years. They didn't ask any questions. I'm not from India though so I don't know whether its different.

I think you should wait until you get your new approved EAD.
How come the company who is taking you didn't ask for unexpired EAD???

Good thing is after 6 months of EAD ,change the jobs. So the new additional income added to your pot can be used to pay INS if there are any annual renewals till you get the GC.
INS will have atleast 200-300K 485 Applicaitons from Indians and equivalent from chinese, Mexico by July 31'st.
So INS will have a good beer party with Billions of Dollars and fixed royalty income from renewals from the potbellys of Indians, chinese,mexicans. This is a ballgame in no mans land.
Some one in INS did a good math to have good money. With these money, if the new bill et al is passed, can be used to build next gen systems.
Good Luck to everybody including me. I am also in the same race to get GC but i am far distant.
