You should get your EAD after FP
Not true... FP depends on your local office... If they are backlogged then your FP is delayed.. So if you are from BA/NY/NJ your FP will be delayed... As far as EAD is concerned you just have to wait... Its very unpredicatible... I got my EAD 1 month AFTER I got my gc! go figure!! My wife received hers last week.. BTW I am a early June filer

Are you a fan of the Buffalo Bills or New York Jets and traveling to the game in Toronto on Thursday, 12/3? If so, the US Customs and Border Protection agency has travel advice for you here. (http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/newsroom/news_releases/11302009_3.xml) CBP advises travelers to check traffic conditions at the four border crossings within the Buffalo/Niagara region, and select the crossing that is least congested. Travelers can easily obtain current border traffic conditions by calling the Niagara Falls Bridge Commission�s toll free number at 1-800-715-6722 or by visiting various web sites listed by CBP.
Travelers should prepare for the inspection process before arriving at the inspection booth. Individuals should have their crossing documents available for inspection and they should be prepared to declare all items acquired outside the U.S. In compliance with full implementation of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, which commenced June 1, all travelers, including U.S. and Canadian citizens, will need to present documentary proof of citizenship.
These documents include a Passport, U.S. Passport Card, trusted traveler card (NEXUS, SENTRI or FAST) or an Enhanced Drivers License. Children under the age of 16 can present an original or copy of their birth certificate. CBP will remain practical and flexible in its approach to full implementation of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative and will continue to educate and inform the traveling public. Please visit the WHTI Web site for additional information. (GetYouHome.gov (http://www.getyouhome.gov/html/eng_map.html))

My petition was denied my lawyer and i though it was an strong case, i am still waiting for reasons why, but i want to know what is my best choice now. I had a sales contract signed to buy an wonderful business. Could i try to travel to usa with my tourist visa buy the business and try a new process requesting change of status. Could a file a new petition inmediatly. I paid for an expedite process and i think that did not help.
What are the main concerns in this type of visa for usa inmigration: Is it financial concern or what? Where can i read more about it?
Please i will appreciate any advise at all, my family is desperate, we had everything ready to go, we were very very excited in moving to usa and have the business of our dreams.
Please help....

Quick survey to findout how many people like the idea of having their passports restamped here in USA and avoid all the surprises and shocks. This doesn't need any legal fixes. It is a convenient measure for everyone. Besides it was an old practice that was stopped for "security" reasons or some crapp. It is a small step but helps with any cases like family emergency or some urgent business need to travel abroad.
Based on the poll results and suggestions, we can comeup with a strategy to address the issue.
This is alreay part of the Admin fix and unfortunately its not moving forward.

It is required that you send photos for your ead as they put your picture on the actual ead card. I did not apply for AP so I am not sure about the requirements for that. Good luck to you.

This is really a good news!! :)
BTW,what about AP??
Mine was approved recently..UH just missed the boat this yr :(
I'm also pleased to announce that we will be extending the validity period of the employment authorization documents that we issue to individuals who are waiting adjustment of status to lawful permit residenture or in colloquial phrase, the green card.
Currently, adjustment applications are granted employment authorization documents with only a one year maximum validity. Beginning later this month, we'll start issuing these documents with a two-year validity period for aliens who are waiting adjustment of status if their application is expected to be pending for more than a year.
This, again, is eliminating a persistent source of frustration for workers who are here, who have a pending adjustment application but have to go and renew their employment documents every single year. It's going to cut the paperwork there.

I�m in EB2 and My I-140 was approved on March 2009 through Employer A. After which I moved to India and now am back (Nov 2010) with Employer B. My old Employer A has my apporved I-140.
It would be great if I get answer the below my Question:
1. Can I apply for I-485 with my new employer B based on my approved 140?? OR
2. Do I need to go back to my old employer A to apply my I-485. If yes is there any specific time period to go back to my old employer A.
Thanks for your help.
preety
Hello Preety :
1. Since you are asking the question for applying for I-485 with employer B, I presume that you have not filed for I-485 with employer A. If this is the case then you will have to apply for new labor. Once you have new labor approved, then you will have to apply for I-140. You will be able to maintain the same priority date from the old approved I-140 (please make sure you have a photocopy of approved I-140 from employer A).
Now, if in case you had already filed for I-485 with employer A and the case has been pending for more than 180 days, then you can switch jobs using AC21.
2. I do not personally feel that there is any need to go back to the old employer to file for your I-485.

I would appreciate a response to my immigration questions as discussed below from anyone knowledgeable on the nuances.
I immigrated here at the age of 5 (in 1988) with my parents. We overstayed our visitor visas.
In 2004, I married my high-school sweetheart, he petitioned for me and in 11/2005 we interviewed and I obtained my conditional permanent residence.
In 9/2007, we signed the documents to convert my conditional to legal permanent residence. I became a legal permanent resident in 8/2008.
After the signing by both parties but prior to receiving permanent residence, in 10/2007, he filed for divorce claiming constructive abandonment for 10 months. This was not what happened, and I was legally unwise, so I did nothing and signed the papers. I consulted my immigration counsel (in 8/2008 after receiving legal permanent residency) and the paralegal gave me the roundabout about having to see the divorce papers and he said that I may be penalized for the divorce at the time I apply for citizenship because of the 10-month constructive abandonment provision.
I consulted with another immigration lawyer who said this would not be a problem at all.
I have left the situation alone until now. I am looking to leave the my current immigration counsel due to their incompetence.
1. When can I become a citizen (do I have to wait 5 years from 11/2005 due to the divorce)?
2. What are the foreseeable problems when I apply for citizenship?
3. Do I have to take any other steps?
I look forward to any responses on this and appreciate the help in advance.
Thank you.

I not really a master webmaster but I did some jobs in the recent past and they were satisfied. :)
I think it is great to have a product intro to your project. since it's dogs it should feature dogs. dogs look great over a white background I think with some text or paragraph on the left. If you will used flash add some dog sounds of different breeds.
That's about all I could think of. Hope it helps!

I am trying to get a green card for the US. My parents are from east asia and I was born in Canada. I went to University in Maryland from 1992-96 and obtained my dental license. I am licensed in the US and intend to purchase a dental office soon. I will still be keeping my dental office in Canada for at least 1 year once I am able to work in the US. I heard about a investment visa however I am not investing more than $400k but it will employ at least 4 US nationals(ctizens). Can I still use the investment visa or can I get a visa for opening a secondary dental office in the US and still keep my existing office in Canada until I qualify for a green card. Also can anyone recommend a good lawyer. How much should it cost for me and my family(wife and 3 children ). Email me if you wish AT

Dear all:
May I ask what I should do in the following situation?
I hold F1 visa and my new job starts on Sept 1. The int'l student office of my current university mistakenly set my OPT start date on May 6. My OPT has been approved and EAD card arrived.
That is, I will have 120-plus "unemployment" days accumulated by early August, which will then violate the "90-day unemployment rule" of OPT.
I am under tremendous pressure and really want to hear your opinions.
Many thanks in advance!

1. The short answer is: Yes, you can most likely accept a one year intra-company transfer to India, and then transfer back to a position in the US with Company B without necessarily lengthening your GC process.
2. BUT, in order to file for AOS based on the existing approved LC/I-140 (EB2 or EB3??), you would have to return to the US to work in the same position at the same location for which the underlying LC was approved.
3. Alternatively, if your position in India meets the USCIS definition of managerial or executive, and you transfer back to the US to take on a position that also qualifies as managerial or executive, Compny B could file an EB1 I-140 on your behalf (maintaining the priority date of the prior I-140), thus substantially shortening or eliminating the quota wait.
4. If you cannot qualify in the EB1 category, and Company B transfers you back to a new position or new location in the US. You can retain your original priority date, but the company will have to apply for a new PERM LC and then file a new I-140 for you.
[NOTE: The above analysis assumes you (and your spouse, if any) were born in India and subject to the immigrant visa quota for India.]

Better not, US does exactly the opposite to what someone asks her :D
I think India must ask US to send back all the skilled H1b holders exactly after 6 years and not issue GC. Then you would be surprised to see heck of a lot approvals !!!!

I would suggest that take an info pass and meet an immigration officer and explain the situation to him personally and if possible given him a written explanation too. What i find a little wired that when you applied for extension you did not notice that that I 94s got exhanchged and even if you did you went ahead and applied for extansion. In my opinion never apply for extension as the applicants next visit is in jeopordy irrespective of result of extnsion of i 94 .
