Thanks

I filed my 485 in EB-2 I, in July 2007. My PD: Nov 2004. I couldn't resist myself from creating an Infopass appt to find out the details of my case. I am in Dallas, TX. Had the appt at 7am this morning and I am pretty happy with the appt. I had a soft LUD on 08/14/09 and was concerned if it was for pre-adjudication. The officer was respectful and answered all my questions. I was asked my priority date, category, country chargeability. He checked the system and told me that the case is pre-adjudicated on 08/14/09 (hence the soft LUD) and a decision has been made. I asked him if he would know the decision and his response was "I cannot officially say that it is in the YES bin, but USCIS does not have to wait for a visa number if it was in the NO bin." I said that I understood it and asked if the namecheck and FBI check were complete. He said, the next step is to approval. I was all smiles.
I checked for my wifes status and he checked the system to say that her case is in the same status. He also added that, her case was last touched on 08/28/09 (No soft LUD).
Final stmt, "You case is very close to completion. Give another 30-60 days and you should hear the good news. Our online systems are not all up to date and in sync. You can always make an Infopass appt to get the latest update on your case. This being the end of fiscal year, with new visa numbers in Oct, you are safe to get an approval soon". I thought it couldn't get any better than this (prior to getting the GC...citizenship.....win a lottery.....start a company....and so on and so on).
My suggestion, if you are current, make an Infopass appt. It is worth it. Atleast, you dont have to check the "Case Status Online" and you inbox every few minutes.
I almost forgot: When the officer(?) said that "...this being the end of fiscal year and new number coming out, you are good", I immiediately asked him "unless the visa numbers are all over for the year and it retrogresses real back than my PD" and his reponse was "I dont think so...atleast I have not been hearing anything about retrogression for now for EB2-I". I hope thats a relief to most of us EB2-I guys. I hope thats the same for everyone else as well.

Kuyt,
As a general rule, the person or entity petitioning for (sponsoring) a person (beneficiary) for lawful US immigration status must be a legal resident, asylee, refugee or citizen of the US up to and including the point in time that the beneficiary is granted lawful status. There are possible exceptions to this rule. To provide advice regarding your situation more information is necessary:
What is the sponsor's current US immigration status? What is the nature of the potential criminal conviction? Is the person being sponsored the principal beneficiary of an immigrant petition or is s/he a derivative beneficiary because the "sponsor" is actually the principal beneficiary? Is the immigrant petition employment based? Family based?

Hello,
Sorry to read that! May your son have a speedy recovery...
Here are some considerations:
IF you are laid off .... in this economy, if you are still holding your job, then the chances of you losing it are low, so be optimistic.
But, in case you are laid off:
a) How would you support yourself and family in US plus your son's medical bills? Wouldn't it be cheaper to be in your home country (unless it is UK/Europe)?
b)The only visa that I can think of is the visitor visa, but on that visa, you can stay in US only 6-m at a time
Good luck!

Hi I'm a Moroccan citizen I was placed in removal proceedings (NY Buffalo) and took voluntary departure. once my wife's divorce was finalized we got married while on voluntary departure. we filed motion to reopen the case and it was reopened and transferred to Los Angeles, CA then the judge closed my case based on marriage with an I130 receipt without prejudice. The I130 was filed on june 2009 and was transferred to Los Angeles on November 12, 2009. I made an appointment with Info Pass but they just said you have to wait untill we call you. My lawyer said I can't file for the I485 untill the I130 is approved. My question is: How long will it take before we will be called for an interview?
An estimation will be much appreciated thank you very much.

I can feel your concern, jk. Am in the same situation. We just got our GC along with our daughter, EB2, PD of Aug02. Our son, however, turned 21 in 2004 and missed the boat because labor was stuck in BEC till 2007.
The rule is that the child should be less than 21 at the time 485 is applied. The CSPA of 2001 gives credit for the time 140 was pending. In most cases this effectively means that the age is locked on the date of 140 application.
The CSPA does not give credit for the time labor is pending. Labor pending was not backlogged when CSPA was enacted, 140 was. Hence the law.
I do not know if there is any way out. I have heard that the aged-out child might be able to claim the PD of the parents if and when s/he applies for GC based on own employment. Nothing authentic, though.

Hi,
I have been on h1 for 7 yrs in the US and i am leaving back to my home country (India) as it is expiring this month. I plan to come back and start working for my current company next yr.
Now can they Process my new H1 in April next yr(6 months from now) or they have to wait till OCT 2007 to process my new h1. I am afraid the next yr quota will be over if they have to wait till OCT.

Hi vvenkat007,
My wife has done BDS from India and is currently here in the US with me trying to get into a dental school.
http://nbdeforum.com is a good website to begin with for useful info.
First to come from India, he probably needs to apply for a Masters in Public Health or some degree like that to come to the US. Then, he has to take the National Board of Dental Examinations (NBDE Part I and/or Part II depending on school requirement) and ace them. Also, TOEFL exam ofcourse.
Then, he can apply to the 25 or so schools in the US that actually allow foriegn-trained dentists to get admitted into their 2nd or 3rd year (again depending on school) of DDS classes.
PM me if you have any questions. All the best to your brother!
Hi Friends,
My brother is finishing his BDS in India this year. I am planning to bring him to US for the studies in USA. Could you please help me on what he needs to do to enter here and are there any hurdles. I am new to USA too so don't know much about the ways so trying to find out. All I heard is unlike engineering its difficult to come for medical studies to USA.
Thank you for your help and support.

Even if your status changed to H1 in October 2004 and you started working in November 2004 for a second employer following approval for that employer, I would say it is just 30days and would not be an issue in future GC application. Don't worry about it.
What do you mean by that. Is she going to file green card in future?She did not say that. May be she wants to go back to her native country once H1 expires.Am I right? H1 visa are given to stay here temporarily for 6 years not to get green cards.First husbands get green cardsm then spouses get green cards, then their parents and in-laws get green cards. This is why lot of primary H1 people are stuck in the line for past 8-9 years without promotions,salary hikes,buying homes. When there are no job for primary H1s, don't understand why spouses want to work.That's why lot of folks are going back to their native places.Competition wihtin out guys.Its like siblings fighting for same job in a single family.

Hi Folks:
Is there a time limit for one to travel on Advance Parole. I was told that if a person travels abroad and intends to enter using AP, the maximum time allowed is 6 weeks, is this true?
Thanks

I got my I-140 (EB3) approved with the priority date of November-2004.
I applied another Labor (EB2) in Feb 2007. When applygin for I-140 for this labor, my lawyer forgot to use the approved I-140 for getting the old priority date (Nov 2004 priority). So, I got the I-140 approval for EB2 case with Feb 2007 Priority date.
Now, can the lawyer change the priority date on the I-140 (EB2) to Nov 2004 using the previous I-140.
