All you said is correct, except for you don't need Hepatitis B if you are over 16. No, there are no more tests involved, unless your tb is positive. If you tb is positive you need to do chestX-ray. I know that because I was just doing the tests for myself. Varicella must be taken twice 30 days apart. Same applies to MMR.
I hope this helps. If you go to a good doctor, he will give you a complete list of things that you need to do before coming on the medical exam.

My immigration doctor told me that if i had chickenpox in childhood i do not need the varicella vaccine? Which i did at age 5. Please, let me know if anyone else was told the same , i will be going back to him on Wednesday for the physical exam. I don't want to get a RFE on that.

All attorneys are going to be very very busy so it is just better to file your self. I have an attorny, I submitted all documents to my attorney by 20th May but they have not done anything about it.
I shopped around yesterday for lawyers coz I wanted to fire my lawyer (my company's lawyer) and get my own.
Turns out, they are all very very busy and some of them are refusing to take on new cases. The ones that do accept new cases are asking for something like $3,000 just to file 485/EAD/AP for primary appliant and spouse.
Although its hard to get confidence in doing this on your own, its also hard to shell out $3,000 just to fill out forms and have a pair of eyes look over it. And after $3000, there is no guarantee that the lawyer's work would be perfect either coz they too, make mistakes as the paperwork (which 90% of immigration work) is really done by paralegals who dont care as much as they should.
There are lot of people on portal who have filed 485 and EAD/AP on their own. I will link some threads here as I find them. And most people renew their EAD and AP on their own coz they would have left their sponsoring employer and they would be pretty much in charge of everything. So if people can file EAD./AP on their own, then the intial 485 is only one more form.

DOS has alloted most unused visa # into EB2 category this year, and EB3 was stuck due to no additional unused EB1 visas.
Visa Bulletin mentioned they did this in according to the requirements of Section 202(a)(5) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. But actually this might be a misunderstanding of Section 202(a)(5) and Section 203(b) - There is NO words in the act on how to allot unused visa # to differnt categories. Even the country limit and category limit would not apply if there are unused visas #. The allotment Mr. Charles Oppenheimer did horizontal spillover caused longer and more backlogs of EB3.
Congress has a concern on the backlogs and Bush's administration promised to reduce backlogs as much as they can. If Immigration and Nationality Act allows the government to spillover the unused visa # to EB2 & EB3, and a more humane and fair system should take care of early priority date first and do whatever the government has promised, should we ask Mr. Charles Oppenheimer to think about alloting some unused visas to EB3 so it can move forword a little bit?

Hello Folks
I am planning to take up a EB3 labor substitution case, and I have a few questions.
With the I140 premium processing being eliminated from today, and the current I140 processing time taking 9 months my question to you all is:
a. Suppose I apply for my I140, I485, AP today (say May 18th 2007), will I be eligible to get an EAD in the next 90 days, though my I140 could still be pending.
b. Will the time for AC21 portability start from the day I applied for I485 or from the day the I140 will get approved.
c. Suppose me and spouse get the EAD (despite I140 pending), and spouse converts from H4 to EAD while I stay on H1-B, what happens to the spouse status in case the I140 gets denied.
d. What is the possibility of the EB2 VISA dates moving further.
Appreciate your help in understanding the system correctly.

Lets treat good news for EB2 as good news for EB3 also.
If not today, some of us EB3 folks may want to port. So it will help more people to port and also to compensate to some extent the #s coming into EB2 pool from EB3.
Overall its a good news, and looks to be possible we see this on Murthy site also. Lets be happy.
What are you talking about? this is not a good news, we will decide that after May Visa Bulletin. For now just read that as a publicity stunt from lawyers and forget about it.

Dont do it. Why? you might ask?
Just think, if you use a lawyer you might have to spend another 500 to 1500 bucks. But you will have a no problems in filing (especially with out errors).
We have spent thousands of dollars so far in getting a GC and at this stage dont mess up to save a few paltry bucks.
You may be finding that your lawyers are'nt approachable a this time. But this is the case with everyone, as they are getting hundreds of calls.
Get a lawyer, fill the application and leave blank and stick notes at which ever field you didnt understand. The lawyers will definitely look into the applications and file it quickly. make sure you tell your lawyer to use the overnight courier to file and bill you the same.

You are wrong. Even with valid H visa you need TV for UK. My wife had valid H4 visa in passport during her last visit to India and she had to return home from the airport and pay extra $ 250 and travel next day via Paris.
According to check in agent per UK rules even if you have a valid visa but have not travelled intyernationally within last 12 months you need TV.
So its not just for ppl who have AP or expired visa, thoise who have valid H visas but havent travelled out in last 12 months also need it.
For those in South ( Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Louisiana) best way to go to India is new Emirates direct flight between Houston and Dubai and then onward to India.
I have had 3-4 friends fly this route since they started flying in November 2007 and they have nothing but praise for everything. These guys have excellent food and entertainment and no transit visa hassels plus duty free sopping in Dubai is good.

If you have other answers from lawyers, you can post them. Make sure to post the lawyer's name. Do not post your opinion. Post legal advice given to you by your lawyer, with the lawyer's name. This will help members get accurate advice and not opinions.

We could also do a signature/petition campaign that would focus on 'American Citizens' supporting our effort. We should aim at getting a lot of signatures. Afterall there have to be hundreds of thousands of formerly H1B holders who are citizens now; at least they would support our effort.
Excellent idea JBR. Why don't you create a letter template and put it in IV. If we have the facility to sign electronically, it will be nice. Later, it can be sent electronically to all Congress Members. Let us try to create a slogan for our campaign. Any IV member can shed their ideas on this.
Is PAPPU or any IV Core members following this thread?. PAPPU we need your involvement in this and make this as another IV campaign immediately...

The 485 and EAD requires total 4 identical photos of each person. I enquired at Walgreens, but their passport photo package contains only 2 photos. Any idea how to get 4 identical photos of the same person? Moreover, the photos must be 2 inch X 2 inch. How to get photos of that size?
Any help is really appreciated.

Background:
It will be really great of we can get some or all of these requests are granted.
I have some friends who had their GC in in 16 to 18 months from soup to nuts. They changed the jobs to some thing really entirely different and better yet they stopped working and started their own companies and recently naturalized as Citizens. So they only honored their intent to work for the same company for 18 months MAX and they are citizens.
Where as many of us are working for the same company for YEARS together. 9th year in my case same job, same seat, just got a different monitor recently for a change :) , no change in sight.
Question :
Since many of us have already fulfilled our intent to work for the employer many times over, why would we still need to get a job in Similar or same occupation to change ?
I know we are now requesting them to change the definition of same or similar so that I can take a promotion in the same field. What about people who acquired different knowledge and want to put to use ?
A friend of mine wants became proficient in photography and wants to become a professional photographer full time. He can't even in new case.
Another friend got a MBA finance (currently working in IT) can't become a financial consultant or investment banker. But for the retrogression, they could have done what they wanted the second day after getting the GC.
Did it ever occur to the core to request a relief so that , if you worked for the company in the job for which GC is filed for XX years (say 5 for example), you are no longer required to look for the same or similar occupation when you change the job ? (Because of the delay in approval of the case due to retrogression and you have already made good on your promise of working for the company.) .
Or is it too much to chew ?
PS : This is not to find fault with any one (person or organization). Let the ideas keep coming.
---------------------------------------------------
Minds are like parachutes. They only function when they are open.
But it may be too much to ask at this point.

Yes but on Monday morning it is NOT going to be current apparently. So, technically you did not send documents ( if you are getting it out on MONDAY) when they were current.
Just imagine, overnight bulletin was revised, what should we do? They did change it,if you know what I mean?

Hope everything will turn out good for you. I don't know faith of our applications.
I�m July 2nd filer application reached to NSC at 9.1 am and signed by R Mickle
Till date my checks have not been cashed. When I Called service center yesterday they gave me Receipt Number for I-485 (LINXXXXXX) but again she told me that�s its Invalid then she put me on hold and checked something then see verified my address, Social security number also My Attorney�s Name and address. After confirming this information she told me Receipt Number of I-485 is yours but its Void in our system let me check it online and online it shows case received and pending.
Now she said its weird its showing Valid in online system and in our internal system its Invalid. Then she asked me did you file 131 and 765 along with this I said yes then she said let me check it and found nothing.
She has created one service request for me and asked me to wait another 45 days.
Meanwhile I told this matter to my Attorney and he told me not getting receipt is normal and I could have asked you to wait till October 15�th but you are there in the system and why they have stopped processing you applications looks strange to me also applications is not been rejected. So he told me that he will write letter to USCIS director to investigate this issue and assured me that as long as we are in their system so don�t have to worry but he told me that if Director don�t respond in one month�s time then we will go to court but he is optimistic that situation may not go to that.
If anyone of you in similar situation please let me know.

If they were submitted on 8/30/ and it's not cleared yet and your derivatives are cleared then more than likely you are stucked, there is some probability that you might be cleared in few weeks depending on number of hits generated against your name and avaialibility of the documents needed to be refered by fbi to clear you. However you dont need to worry much because now a days fbi seems to getting work lot faster then it used to. Also since july fbi has increased the fees that they charge USCIS to do the check which has increased the staff at NNCP and so the efficiency. I would suggest for you to wait 60 days and try again. Hopefully you have good news. I have been waiting 35 months.

One way to end his mis-information is to make a list of the companies who advertise on his show. After that we need to communicate with these companies about the lies he spews on his show and also threaten to boycott all their products, if they continue to sponsor his show.
Remember, I can't make a difference, you can't make a difference. But both of us can certainly make a difference.
my views exactly. this is what works in usa ..send letters to companies that sponsor his show. thats how it worked in don imus's case. if all immigrants boycott those products which sponsor his show ..dobbs will start fitting in his shant

Wanted to update on my Infopass appointment, I have multiple 485's pending based on separate 140's(one approved and other pending) with different A#'s and at different service centers. So was bit concerned. The IO informed me that all my 485's and 140's have been consolidated and all applications are in the same file at one service center so nothing to worry about. She also told me to use the A# from the first 485 for future communications with CIS.
People who have multiple 485's pending, my word of advise is its not a problem. CIS takes care of it. And this is true even if you have different A#'s.
