You definitely need to send it even if you get BIOMETERICS
Hello WAIT_FOR_EVER_GC , Please do not confuse or post anything that you have no idea about.
Its is not true. You don't need to send photos for EAD and the instruction clearley says that. For AP you need to send photos even thnough you went for biometric appointment.
If you apply both EAD and AP together then you will still need to go to fingerprint and also send photos for AP.

Hi Gurus - Can someone enlighten why lawyers reco. not to inform USCIS about AC21 and wait for RFE?
Also does anyone knows how one can get back on h1b after invoking AC21? If AOS is denied how to get h1b again? (if not exhausted 6 year of h1b)
Thanks

My inputs may not help you , but I am posting it so that it could prevent others from making this mistake..
If spouse has EAD and AP, then using of EAD will not abandon H4 status nor it will jeoperdize the GC applicant H1b status.
A safe bet for dependet is to use EAD instead of getting H1b and going thru all stamping coplications. Being a spouse of GC applicant has lots of advantages...:D.
Now coming to your question, I think you should not depend on this forum for your solution. Contact a good attorney and take their advice.
Good luck..
We need experts advice in the following matter.
Here is my situation, I have entered US on H-4 and after sometime I have applied for H1(Change of status) through a consulting company. I have worked for this company for 3 months.

Anyway having + Attitude and is good thing.
just wondering, how do you know when your medical and FP expires ?
I hope they will ask us to go through that pain only when they are about to approve a case (just imagine the mess ..if GC takes 10 years and they ask to go medical every 2 years)

Royus,
As per Murthy's announcement AILA finally managed to get the required number of Plaintiffs by 2:45 PM today after noon.
Still to be on the safe side shall we go ahead fill the PlainTiff form ??
what if the lawsuit is not given " CLASS ACTION " status and only Plaintiff's are benefited ?
Is there any potential advantage for AILA if they upgrade the status as CLASS ACTION - do they get any Money ??
Thanks
Its is always advisable to file the petition as AILA clearly stated that they are going to identify "class" of people. The court may or maynot give benefit for all classes .so better file and be in the "Best Class" where if AILA wins the case you will get benefited ,Dont be penny foolish as if you already spent money in getting other stuff ..what you are loosig in 1 grand for attorney fee , ( think of desi employers who gets 2 grands every month on you )
Also with todays's rumor some thing positive is in pipeline ..even july VB flip-flop also started as a rumor

Hi Miriam,
I appreciate your efforts in highlighting this issue. It is a high stakes issue for would be future americans who respect the law, abide by it and wait patiently for their turn in line to apply for
green card, while maintaining legal non-immigrant working status during years of wait, paying taxes and contributing to social security. I would also like to highlight that in H1B status if one loses the job, he or she needs to leave the country in 10 days.
I am glad you are bringing the issue of legal immigration to light. After all, thats what everybody wants, immigration to be orderly and legal, but is it workable ? and why people trying to follow the law feel cheated and duped by the government, after waiting patiently for years and abiding to
the laws.
The Dept of State and Dept of Homeland Security(USCIS) acted against the interests of immigrants who are trying to immigrate legally. Legal immigration is the real issue. If it works, there
will not be a need to grant amnesty to millons of illegal alilens. The real solution to stop
illegal immigration is to make legal immigration work. Unfortunately, the government is going
in the opposite direction as evident by the actions of DOS and DOHS on July 2, 2007.
Is government sending the message to people trying to follow the law that, Following the law is
going to get tougher, just break it, become illegal aliens and we are working on an amnesty.
I would request you to get to the bottom of this and find out whether right procedures and laws were followed in using the visa numbers ? If not, then the conclusion is, government of United States failed in respecting and following its own laws. Is it not a travesty, that law breakers are
probably going to be rewarded with an amnesty and govenment is not respecting them either ?
We are resepecting it, following it and are getting the door slammed on us. I never thought, I
would see this in America. My impression of America has changed, forever.

I feel it is necessary that the impact and the behind the scenes maneuvering at DOS be covered by a respectable publication such as the WSJ. May I point you to some of the links on the internet.

Thanks for all the info,
For AC21, I have read you don't need approve I-140, only approvable is good enough, new employer no need file new LC, no need ability to pay just have to be the same titile and similar pay. But I still not clear about self-employ.
Last question,
If I were to go with I-140 premium, and get approve let says October 15.
Is it going to do any good because 485 is even worse, right now is processing only Dec 2, 2005 and move slower than turtle. That's why I need to know somebody who get 485 approve from Nebraska to say something here. But I know basically people who already got 485 approved will never come back to spend time on this forum. But if you know friends or anybody got 485 approved please write something like Priority date and 485 receipt date.
Thanks again
As all the I-140's from CA and VT were transferred to NSC in April so it is slow. I guess they are currently working on cases filed in the month of April. If your I-140 is not approved by December then you might want to consider converting it into Premium Processing so that you can avail the benefits of AC21 once your I-485 is pending for more than 180 days.

Thank you all for your suggestions and they are helpful.
I would wait for one or two months for the next FY visa bulletins and decide on starting my new labour in EB2.
Thank you again.
If your current/future job is eligible for EB-2, you have the qualifications to meet the job requirement and your employer is willing to start EB-2 process, I would get the process started as soon as possible. With your current EB-3 PD, I dont see anything changing in the next 1 to 2 months. You might as well start it now so you can complete the PERM documentation and advertising phase and file PERM in 2-3 months duration instead of waiting. Thats my 2 cents.

Folks,
I'm sure you must have debated this already. But, I'd post this anyways:
Is it possible to take out(or substitute) the need to have a IV handle or register with IV, inorder to participate and meet the law-makers on the Advocacy Day?
I'm thinking that could bring in more people. People who wants to register will register anyways and who don't want to can also participate. There are other ways to check the validity of the person registering
Thanks!
I never thought registering on IV is a an issue. I see close to 50K registered users on IV, I have not come across anyone who had any issues for registering with IV.

Democrats want to win Presidential election and increase their numbers in congress based on Iraq and Immigration. They are thinking that if CIR is passed they can project that it is Democratic congress which passed CIR. If they fail they will blame that Republicans voted against and they will make this as election issue. They are thinking in that way. But it will not work. People are against big immigration numbers but they will not oppose moderate immigration increase. But American people are divided when it comes to illegal immigration. If any other issue is burning then immigration will become non issue and democrats will not get any extra votes because of CIR. But liberal immigration is not good for Labor unions(we know democrats are pro-labor also) so that may work against Democrats. Right now it is not sure whether parties are really dedicated to pass CIR or Just for making immigration alive to get political mileage.
it seems democrats are making this bill so liberal that even liberal republican will have tough time to support it.... in that case democrats can say republican are not in favor of immigrants and Bush is not able to manage any support from his party.... We can't say anything for sure...but a very liberal bill will have really tough time to go through.....

Hi ,
I received RFE on my I-131 application asking for all the I-94's that is being issued to me.
I had been in and out of US many times and there's lot if I-94's involved and I don't anything with me except the latest. What options do I have?... Also couple of times during my earlier trip (initial visits in US), the AIR Line didn't even take the I-94 from my Passport which ultimately I lost.
My Passport has all the entries indicating my Date in and Date out...
Gurus - What do you advise on my case...
Anybody's input are highly appreciated and I know we could somehow get the I-94 copies by requesting USCIS. (That is time consuming)... I have to respond in next five to ten days...
What options do I have?...
Thanks.
Send them copies of all the I-94s you have along with a letter stating entry exit from US. Include airline tickets if you still have them.

I got this Reply from Zoe Lofgren, offcourse this reply was in December 2006 when Republicans were controlling the Congress.
Thank you for contacting me. I appreciate the time you took to explain the impact of the H-1B visa cap and the "green card" backlog on U.S. employers.
I understand well that the success of U.S. companies depends on highly educated and talented U.S. citizens and foreign nationals.
What we need is thoughtful reform that supports the American economy and allows American companies the benefit of the "best and brightest" from around the world.
As you know, the Republicans now lead in the House of Representatives, Senate and White House. As such, Republicans control what bills and amendments are considered in committees and on the floor of the House of Representatives. They have taken no action for reform but have proposed legislating on a money bill in violation of House rules. Should the Senate Judiciary Committee's H1-B proposal come before me in the House of Representatives, I will certainly consider your point of view.
Again, thank you for contacting me. Please do not hesitate to contact me again if I can be of further assistance to you or your family.
Sincerely
Zoe Lofgren
Member of Congress
