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!
Yes, you'll have to get it registered.
It is not big deal. Just ask your parents to get in touch with a document writer (guys who'll be sitting in front of Registrar offices) and they'll do it for you. Your mom and dad may need to go and sign the docs in front of the registrar.

I will advice you to try to get H1 rather than get J1. No doubt J1 is easier to get but on long term basis, it is much harder to convert and takes more time and money. I have gone through this.

stucklabor,
Thanks for your post. It's good to hear the perspective of a core member of IV like yourself. I understand your point of view but respectfully disagree with your definition of the greatest good. The greatest good will not be achieved by just passing the labor cert. stage. The greatest good is achieved once we have the GC card. Your effort on retrogression to benefit 250k & 200k is plausible. But you help them to pass one bridge, to just get stuck on the next. If there are 25k people stuck in name check at this time, imagine what will happen when the estimated 200k-250k reach that stage.
If the 25k spent in average 3 years in the name check, what will be the wait time for that massive population that are headed that way after retrog & labor cert? The EB process is a big picture and the greatest number will not get the greatest good until all these obstacle are resolved all the way to the end.
sroym, i think the point stucklabor was trying to make is, that currently most of the people are stuck in retrogression and labour which makes things far more unbearable than actually having an EAD/AP and such benefits. There is a whole thread on this discussion where members of all nationalities have complained about IV not taking the FBI name check issue seriously. I think the moot point that IV core members are focussing on is, the fact that retrogression is making life unbearable for just about everyone. Plus given the following facts:
1) A Serious Majority of the IV members are affected more by retrogression+labor as compared to FBI name checks. and
2) IV core members have full time jobs and spouses and are working pro-bono for the good of everyone and money collected is also coming in slowly and thorugh the IV members themselves.
These 2 facts mean that both time and money is at a premium and they have to spend it solving the problem they originally started to solve. Believe me, some of the core members themselves are stuck with the FBI name check issue for the past 2 years or so.
Given all these facts, you have to understand where IV and it's mission/policy stands. To my understanding the policy is "One step at a time".

Thanks Paskal, I fully understand now with the example of the Scarlett Letter. I need to get busy and get another waiver then. Maybe I wasnt very clear on my first post about my stauts. I had had only a first J1 from 2002 to 2005. I wanted to stay so I got a waiver that time, and I tried to get a H1B, but I couldnt get it due to expired documents that I could not get renew from my country so my H1B was denied. Now some years later I decide to come back and the only fast way to come was with another visa J1. So as you explained I need to get my case number and start my process all over again. ONce I get the waiver I will look for a new sponsor and star the H1B process all over again. I cant be very open about this because if my present sponsor realizes that I am doing waiver and everything else I may loose my J1 because I signed a contrat to work for them for 3 years and then go back home. I think it is very unfair, but that is how things work around here.
Thanks so much for your advice. Good luck to everyone in this same boat!

I don't think it is true. My lawyer said using AP will not invalidate H1B.
I have seen many people saying they came through AP and extended H1B , some even 3 times.
Anyway, I am travelling outside and planning to use my AP while coming back. I will post a message if I come through H1B
Application vs. Use of EAD or Advance Parole:
Applying for and obtaining approval of EAD or Advance Parole does not affect the 485 applicant's "nonimmigrant status" including H and L. However, once the alien starts work using an EAD or travels on Advance Parole, the alien is considered no longer in a nonimmigrant status including H and L.
I didn't know if we use AP we loose H1, any comments Seniors?

I just read in Murthy.com that if a H1B is terminated and the same company wants him back they have to pay the entire salary for the period he was out of job. (google H1B employers obligations) So i think that won't be your case. You should be on EAD.
When you are on EAD they need not inform USCIS. There is no need for you to join your old company back.

Folks,
We have a Consulting Firm Run Professionally. Little about me, Have been in the country for past 12 Years. Came up the Ranks via Consulting Firm like many of you.
Some Facts & Disclosure..
I am not Here to Hire Folks, just to voice my Opinion. Something that People on H1b should hear from Employers View as well. There is lots of Information to go around, from Consultants, who been here for few years to new folks who come to USA. Mostly its just Bad news for the new comers... Welcome to Bload Sucking Desi Consulting Firm.. Welcome to New Jersey.. or where ever you may land.. You get the point.
I am not here as Voice of Rest of Employers.. Just Pointing things out as I See it..
OK.. here we go..
Most of the employers, HATE doing Percentage bases. Give any employer a choice, between doing working on 70/30 or 80/20 or with a Stright Salary... 99% would be willing to work on Straight Salary Basis. Because that's what is Required by the Law. Simple as that.
I do Agree that there are lot of employers, who don't pay on Bench. WE DO. Here is what has happened very recently with our employees.. Few of our Employees have QUIT because we refused to do % Basis & these are the guys who came 6 months ago on new H1b. I would understand the Senior Employees Who have been with us for say 2-3 years ask for % basis Pay.
Now We are in a situation where we have Agree on % Basis Pay as a Company Wide Policy & then offer is to all our employees.. But that puts us on odd with Department of Labor. Which Madates every H1B employee to be on staight Salary basis.
You tell us what are our Options.. Either we Fire/lose employees who want % Basis pay.. just because their peers are getting it (EVEN If it is ILLEGAL )
We Don't Charge a Penny for a H1b, We foot the Bill.. Just as an Example we LOST 32,000 This year, just in Lawyer fees for H1b's not selected in the lottery.. I Know & Fully Understand that its a Cost of doing Business..
Now, if we go on % Basis, our whole model changes... Because, There is Cost of Doing business, Managing Employees, Marketing, H1b, Greencard, Full Pay on Bench, & Last but not least Profit.
So if i have put employees on % Basis, that means We as company are making Hardly anything. Which means, we have to charge new h1bs, for at-least Lawyer fees.. What if it does not get selected, what do we do. Refund the money, Then whats a point of taking the money in the first place.
We WANT to pay on bench, because most people normally do find a project in 30-45 days, Provided they are Technically sound.
With Percentage Basis, We can't do that.. Since the Employee has chosen to work on Hourly.. No Work No Pay.
What should we do for Holidays .. Again No Work- No Pay..
We have done the Calculations.. Believe me.. There is Hardly any Difference Between % Pay & Straight Salary if you account the following at the end of year...
-- Medical & Dental Insurance.
-- Expense of Relocation, Moving your Apt, Car & Staying in Hotel for a week before you find a place to crash
-- No Bench Pay, No US Holiday Pay, No Sick Leave
-- No Pay for Vacation, Unless you don't Believe in Vacation.
-- No Green Card
-- No H1b Extension.. You would have to foot the bill at the end of your 3 year term on H1b.
When you account for the above.. you tell me..
We don't want our employees to take the Above risk.. believe me I have try to make these guys understand & have reasoned with them.. Provided with Financial Calculations..
What do (Some) of our employees see.... Just a Few Bucks more... Nothing else..
So I am going to let you guys Answer this Question...
Who is making us Going on the EVIL-DESI-Consulting-Path ?
Thanks

This reminds me of frog mentality to pull someone else down on some pretext or the other.
What is the definition of "fairness"? Just because my application is waiting to be attended by an adjudicator and others are getting approved doesn't mean that I need to cry out foul. And if we do care for "fairness", whatever "fairness" means to us, then what are we doing, as a group, to seek fairness. I hope you agree that just by posting 3 messages per day on this forum and labeling system "unfair" "broken" etc, system is not expected to start working in a fair way. If you look at the thread to call lawmakers, there are hardly 30-35 people who actually called the lawmakers office. I am not telling you to call or do anything other than helping to make the system "fair".
sanju, you said that right man.

Hello Everybody,
Due to budget restrictions, I may be getting laid off from my company soon. I have filed for I-485 and have received EAD. I am currently on H1B. I have a citizen friend who runs his own company. He has no employees. He does pretty much all work by him self or get it done by hiring outsouced help whenever needed. He has a legitimate company - but he does not have big revenue (May be 100K/ year). Would it be okay if I join his company on EAD to get my GC going or should I look for a firm that employs lot of people and has sizable revenues. What (if any) are any risks?
Thank you.
Some scenarios to consider
1. If 140 is approved and its been 6 months since date of 485 application and your company who sponsored is not revoking 140, then ability to pay might not matter and you don't care since you can use AC21
2. If 140 is approved and it has not been 6 months since 485 application date and you are on good terms with and your employer is not going to revoke your 140 , take an unpaid vacation to fill the 6 months gap if you can, then you are still safe to use AC21.
3. If your 140 is not approved but you have passed the 180 days litmus test and you use AC21 to move to another employer then the ability to pay might come in to picture if any RFE is done by USCIS.
4. If 140 is not approved and you have not passed 180 days its a variation of the 2nd case and if you can pull it off you can use AC21 and work elsewhere later.
there might be other scenarios but consider each of them carefully before making the decision. While it might seem a simple decision having come so far in your journey you don't want to make as wrong decision only to rue it.
- good luck

The mission of Immigration Voice is to organize grassroots efforts and resources to solve several problems in the employment based green card process including (a) delays due to Retrogression (visa number unavailability for certain employment-based categories) (b) delays due to USCIS processing backlogs and (c) delays due to Labor Certification backlogs. We will work to remove these and other flaws by supporting changes to immigration law for high-skilled legal employment-based immigrants. High-skilled legal immigrants strengthen the United States' economy and help maintain American technological superiority

The following is the result of my research for the countries which
permit an Indian passport-holder to enter without a visa or by

confirmation from Albanian Ministry of Interior stating that visa will
be available on arrival. Confirmation must be obtained before

Visa required, which can be issued on arrival for a max. stay of 30
days. An invitation is not necessary but it is recommended to hold a
document that shows the purpose of the visit. Visa is only valid for
the cities listed in the visa.
BAHRAIN
If travelling for business purposes visa can be obtained on arrival,
but this is subject to Immigration evaluation.
BERMUDA
Visa not required.
Bermuda Immigration officers will decide on max. period of stay (up to
6 months) depending on reason for travel. Stays exceeding 6 months
require application for residency in person.
BHUTAN

approval from Le Diligue General de L'Immigration.
CANADA

may re-enter without obtaining a new Canadian visa, provided the I-94
from the U.S.A. and the Canadian port stamps are still valid.
CAPE VERDE ISLANDS
Visa not required if:
- Passenger was a former national of Cape Verde Isl.,
incl. wife, husband or children provided holding
proof thereof;

There is some procedure known as Follow to Join, which might be relevant to you. I personally haven't used it nor do I know anyone who has, but try looking into that.
I found this link on IV related to the FTJ topic...
http://immigrationvoice.org/forum/forum5-all-other-green-card-issues/21256-following-to-join-timeframe.html
And I join the others who responded strongly recommending that you hire a good lawyer with experience working on FTJ cases...good luck to you and your wife.
