I think as a next step I will contact my Congressman after the Feb dates are released and we are still current. Do you know if it makes more sense to approach Congressman or Senator for this ? Also should I approach only 1 rep like 1 Congressman or approach both my district congressman and 2 state senators ?
We are even more screwed because since our dates are current we can not even get 2 Yr EAD or 3 yr H1 extension but you have to renew both annually.
Please share your experiences.
1) It all depends on where you live and who is your lawmaker. You need to look at lawmakers profile. Are they in any committee etc?
2) If you have already established good relations with the office due to IV work, it may become easy. Since you are an old IV member, and you may have already visited their office for state chapter work,IV action items and made calls, you may contact them now for your application status.

I am wondering everybody here is throwing stones at small consulting companies, I wonder how these people came to US surely somebody did there H1? right? People are working in big companies HP/Oracle/SAP bla bla.. but I'm sure they are not the ones who brought you guys here. Also the day they'll get their green cards each of these people are going to open similar companies and do the same thing. This is amazing how people forget their past and forget the people who brought them here...I will call you guys thankless....
Sorry to disillusion you, but there ARE people who are US educated and never even spoke to a consulting firm before. Not everyone is an IT consultant, again don't paint everyone with th same brush. People do get H1 in a full time position other than consulting.

Ok, I've seen a lot of threads about go to the rally, actions items, I've reading a lot of guys saying dont ask for your receipt status, dont waste your time etc, etc.
Yes we did the rally we were great with all those signs, and appearing in the Indy TV but...
Question remains open:
1. When are they going to increase the GC quota?
2. When congress id going to do something?
I've the feeling that that's it we made our point but we are still with no GC, waiting receipts..............
Exactly who are you referring to when you say "WE"? You werent there my friend...
I think you should rephrase the sentence as
Yes YOU did the rally YOU were great with all those signs, and appearing in the Indy TV
.. and had a ton of fun meeting people
.. experiencing the true power of democracy
.. walked the walk..
.. handed people flowers and enjoyed their smiles
.. were honked for cause people supported
.. heard mark explaining the "disease" while ROFL our ass off.
.. STOOD UP IN THE FRONT OF THE CAPITOL HILL AND YELLED "HOW LONG DO YOU WANT US TO WAIT?"

I was able to successfully port my EB3 to EB2 and received my GC last month. I am working for a mid-size American consulting firm. My background is Bachelors in Computers from India and did Masters in Computers from US.
I filed my EB3 labor in AUG 2005 and got both labor and I140 approved in two months.
Filed 485 in July 2007 & got EAD/AP.
Went to my Employer and requested them to either refile my application for EB2 or I will have to resign. Since I was already working as PM, it was easy for my Employer to file for EB2 for PM position.
Filed EB2 labor in March 2009, Got approved in Jan 2010
Got EB2 I140 approved in March 2010
Late March Case transferred to Local Office.
Personal Interview in May 2010 - IO was not sure why i was called for interview. No Questions asked and told to wait till date gets current.
Date got current in July.
- Call multiple times 800 number only standard response
- Went to local office and request update. IO told to wait for a week. 2 days later on 14th July got my GC approved.
I believe even if you get your GC 6 months early by porting dates, its worth it. I hope my story helps you.
Best Luck!
I am already using my EB3 EAD to work (I invoked AC21 last year to change job) Can I know how much it costs to file EB2 labor+I-140+interfile process , if my current employer says that I have to pay for it myself (I was given this offer because I told them I did not need sponsorship and I had EAD).

I tried to book tickets on makemytrip for luftansa yesterday; After going through all passport details etc- for over 2 hours checking etc the agent coolly told me that transit visa is required for advance parole holders. If you carefully see the regulations they mention "2 Years" permit not "1 year" validity of Advance parole. I also heard stories of multiple people blocked from boarding luftansa on advance parole. So i switched and booked on emirates instead. Apparently this rule is either enforced or not depends on the discretion of luftansa personel. So be carefull if you are on advance parole- Looks like germans also trying to get on the Visa Fee pie.
No transit visa required. I got an identical response when I checked with the german consulate in november. Nevertheless, I did not take transit visa, and with visa stamping expired in March 2010, I travelled with AP on Lufthansa from IAD to BLR in December, and returned in Jan 2011, and nobody even mentioned the word "transit" anywhere along the route. Lufthansa staff is very knowledgeable about AP, both in Wash.Dulles and BLR. In fact, In BLR I saw that even Air France also does not require transit visa for Paris and allowed people with AP to board without transit visa. So folks, dont waste time and money on transit visa. Nothing is going to happen , unless you miss your connecting flight in Frankfurt, in which case you will not get to stay in a hotel and would have to spend the transit time in the airport.

what is that single document that will define legal status of a person?
visa stamp is what ppl presume..is indicative of status..we all know that it is not.
I 94..to some extent unless you changed status to H1 from F1 and did not go for H1 stamping..then you have to show the I 797 approval form..now..where will this madness stop
now how can a cop understand and verify all of this crap..and anyway..they give out licenses to only legal residents.

Two things I would like to mention here:
First, a possibilty of an RFE for your laetest Employment Verification only arises when certain red-flags are raised. Among them are:
1.) Address on file (which has changed after filing I-485) is in a different state from the place of employment. Now I am sure the officer knows that DC and Virginia/Maryland or NH and MA are different states but still they can be daily commuter workers sou could be spared.
I have seen more than a bunch of folks getting RFE's for this specific reason.
2.) Long time (upto the discretion of the CAO..but I feel it is more than 18 months) has passed since the I-485 has filed.
3.) Any other history of excessive job-hopping.
Please pitch in if you know any other substantive reason.
Second,
For the job description from the new employer: I would say put whatever the new employer says but make sure ...for sure to copy paste two related sentences from your old job desc. into the new one to be the first bullets in the description.
I had changed jobs using AC21, used EAD, moved to a different state (5-6 states apart, i.e not a daily commuter) had a slightly different job title. Oh I was so sure that I would get an RFE ...I made sure I sent the AC21 docs against the advise of my attorney (he wanted CIS to send the RFE, made no sense as that would have literally wasted time and my money ;))...and did all the things that I just said about the new EVL...and got the I-485 approved without any issues.
Go ahead and make the best of AC21!:)

I think what he is saying demands attention by the lawyers and core members.Thing is we never know what is going on until there is some transparency. The law many times is open to suit ones needs and I suspect DOS may be doing that.

Let me correct it.. I read somewhere that it is considered not a major problem if some one is out of status for less than 180 days cumulatively.
Sorry you answer is not clear to me. You mean I was out of status and I will have problem at 485 stage?

Sometimes in your life you make bad decisions. It happened unfortunately, because my PD is June 2004 EB2 and when dates became current last year, I thought it needs to move just 3 months to have my date current and as per DOS release there were only 3400 visas in EB2 for 2004.
Unluckily I chose for CP instead of 485 and now lying in a dark well.
Anyway please don't sympathize, I'll certainly come out of this situation very soon.
That still doesnt explain why you chose CP over normal AOS. PD wise, it would not have mattered either ways. Also if you feel that you are going to come out of this issue soon then why do you want IV to take up this cause anyways? Dont get me wrong i am not trying to be mean here, I am just not sure why you are proposing what you are proposing.

I am exploring the possibility of making the Inter-filing. I have been speaking to some well known, street-smart attornies. One mentioned that the "Priority Date" is decided only upon approval of I-140. He also wrote that for keeping the earlier priority date, the 2nd I-140 application (new) should be filed along with copy of the approval of the first I-140.
In your case, it appears that you did not send the approval copy of the first I-140 along with 2nd I-140 application.
Probably, you can send the approval of EB-2 I-140 with earlier PD, along with I-485 receipt copy to the Service Center and ask them to allot the earlier PD. Please take the assistance of attorney for doing this.
