I don't want to discourage you, but IV has looked into all these options earlier and has realized that it would be fruitless to try and ask our lazy politicians to take up our case with the US govt. More over this is an internal matter of US govt and Indian government cannot influence their policies and laws. Why would you expect Indian govt. to fight for you, when you left the Indian shores and want to settle down in US for your comfort?
Having said that, if you do have contacts and would like to take the lead in reaching out to the Indian govt, IV will support you. So please do the honors.

I have read many threads that discusses the pros and cons of using EAD over H1 and the common benefit that everyone mentions is that the salary is usually better for a person on an EAD. I spoke to several people who've started using their EAD and realized that even though it opened up opportunities with companies that do not have a policy of sponsoring H1, it DID NOT give them a boost in the salary.
My question is how do people intend to leverage on having an EAD for a higher salary?
Thanks!
EAD gives you more negotiation power. Most companies are willing to negotiate on one or two things while making an offer e.g. salary, bonus, vacation, H1B/GC etc. If you take out H1B/GC out of that mix, chances of negotiating on salary are higher.

I am a dentist in state of CA,and filed for EB2 green card.In April 2006 applied for my PERM from MD Dental, a dental group with 5 offices and about 30 employs and owned by 2 partners.Also in April 2006 they applied for my H1b visa.Further PERM and H1b both were approved and in may 2006 I filed for I-140 from the same company.I-140 had a RFE but was approved in Feb 2007.Meanwhile in Oct 2006 both partners had a is understanding and they split the company into 2 companies with one partner getting 2 offices and the other partner getting 3 offices.Originally my perm was filed from the MD dental Van-Nuys office, which was given to partner A who then told me to file for a new H1b as tax ID number for the employer has changed but my job location would not change. I filed for a new H1 visa from partner A which was also approved and started to work for him till Feb 2007.
In feb 2007 I found a new job again as a dentist with a different company and moved to that company.I am still in good contact with both partner A and partner B of the old company.
My question is if I could file for I485 from MD dental which is already split with
approved I140, or I could file it from partner A or partner B`s new company showing either of them as succesor of interest.Also can I invoke AC21 in 6 months and move to my current employer.
Please advice.
May be you need to amend I-140. Please consult a good attorney/lawyer.

I dont think there is any need to apply for amendment in premium processing as long as you file the amendment before your current I-94 expires (which in your case is the date of EAD expiry).....I would suggest you to check with some other lawyer too regarding this because $1000 is not a small amount....

Give atleast 1-2 months for booking the appointment. It was a harrowing experience getting an appointment to the point where my fingers were aching. Also add in time for the Canada visa. We went to Canada consulate in DC for the Visa.

I received my "Approval Notice Sent" email on Aug 13th and actually received the notice on 16th. However, never received any "Card Production Ordered" email. From your post, it looks like you received the card production email before the "Approval Notice Sent" email. I am just wondering why I didn't receive any card production ordered email.
I would imagine that once the 485 is approved, card production is automatically ordered. Any input guys?
The Story Thus far:
Though I am not an immi guru ( I never knew what was LUD till I started checking this site), but check this site for regular updates, so wanted to share news with others who eagerly waiting for approvals in Aug.

Dear XYZ,
Thank you for contacting me about changing H-1B and L-1 immigration policy. I understand your concerns.
As you may know, Senator Richard Durbin (D-Illinois) introduced the H-1B and L-1 Visa Reform Act (S.887) on April 23, 2009. This legislation would change current immigration laws to limit the number of special occupation and intra-company transfer workers permitted to receive United States visas. It would also increase the oversight of H-1B and L-1 visa holders to reduce fraud and abuses in the system. This bill is currently pending before the Senate Judiciary Committee, of which I am not a member. Should this or related legislation come before me for a vote, I will keep your views in mind.
Thank you again for contacting me. Please continue to keep me informed about issues of concern to you and your family.
Sincerely,
United States Senator
I received the same email too.What a pity.....

So I have to join the new employer only after the new I-140 is approved right..my current I-140 is already approved..
You can move to a new employer and start EB-2 (PERM based LC, I-140 etc.) with them. You can still retain the old PD because your I-140 has been approved.

Bank denied a consumer loan ,after approval due to immigration status specifically they said no loan unless you are a citizen. i am a permanent resident , leaving in the US for over 15 years. Applying for naturalization this year. Also the same bank had approved a consumer loan 2 years ago and now they say "oh we made a mistake then". Case or no case? I think I have been discriminated against.

For those who think that this is good and will not affect them -
What we are hearing now in the news is just the tip of the iceberg. It is just ground work to justify tougher measures against employment based immigration. If it continues, CIR will be passed giving path to citizenship to ILLEGAL immigrants without any measure for employment based immigration. Remember, the only folks who have been in influential position to support EB immigration has been big businesses (like Microsoft, Oracle) and AILA. With the rising unemployment rate, nobody will listen to these businesses. With the indictment of (even a few) cases of H-1B fraud, AILA will not be able to fight the impending tsunami against legal employment based immigrants.
If we don't do anything, illegals will be citizens while people with H-1 and even EAD will be forced to go back. This is the beginning of the end to employment based immigration.
For those who can't read normal font.
BTW, update your profile when you get time, it will help IV and you.

Hello everyone,new to the forum
Anyway,filed i-485 in 1997 and was interview 1999 and stamp in passport adjustment status pending,b;cos of past immigration issues.Then i did recieve letter that my family petition was accepted then two weeks recieved another letter stated my application was denial due to my past issues so i had to leave the country and reapply. My lawyer said she had to file a motion,did charge alot of money.Did not hear anything till i went there to check my status and the officer told me i was in the process of deportation,so she gave me the date.So i went to my lawyer to check if she knew anything and she said your case is pending,so i ask her if she can call and check whereby she did and find out i was in the processes of deportation,now she told she need more money and if i do not pay that amount she can not go the court with me,so i did offer some amount and she refuse.
So i went to the immigration court and i did win the case,and now she find out that i did win the case so trying to be my attorney.
I do need to file for Ead because my old one was revorke,do i have to file for another i-485 or not?Another thing my lawyer had my file how do i track my old receipt number.Can someone please help me, i do have the original judgement from the immigration court
I guess you should drop all "thing in the past" with your lawyer behind and work with her to get you going with this. you lawyer is the one in best position to help your situation. If you do not have receipt for 485, you should talk to her and ensure that the lawyer agree to send you all the photocopies of the documents or the originals themselves so that you do not land up in this sutiation again. Pay her after you receive the documents.

Immigration Voice has taken a position against the bill in its current form. .
And that is the position of everyone in this country except 20 insider deal senators.
You offer amendments after you take position on the bill - for or against. Everyone does it. There are people who would oppose the bill both before entering the amendments and after their own amendments are passed.
In the current position, the bill is unacceptable to us and it would be foolish to say "Thanks for screwing us with 90K, we accept it and support your screwing us".
Have some dignity man...
But what if some amendment convert 90K to 190K ? Will IV support the bill then? I think the entire bill is not that bad we can swing it into our favor by changing few details :)

Hello,
Here is my situation.
a) My I-485 is pending since Aug 2007. I am the beneficiary and my spouse is the primary.
b) The I-94 on my passport states its validity upto Aug 22, 2010. This was stamped using my earlier H1B which was valid upto Aug 2010.
c) I quit my H1B job on Nov 2008 and took another job using EAD. I think this may have invalidated my underlying H1B
d) I didn�t apply for any extension of stay or change of status (COS) back in Oct 2008, becuase my I-485 was pending.
e) I have not travelled outside of the country since my last arrival.. (pls see #b)
Recently I came across a memo from USCIS wherein it tries to differentiate betweeen UNLAWFUL STATUS and ACCRUAL of UNLAWFUL PRESENCE. The memo is "Consolidation of Guidance concerning unlawful presence for purposes of sections 212(a)(9)(B)(i) and 212(a)(9)(C)(i)(I) of the act".. and the example on page 9 states this.
"An alien is admitted as a non immigrant, with a form I-94 that expires on Jan 1, 2009. On Oct 5, 2008, he properly files for an application for adjustment of status. He does not, however, file any application to extend his non immigration stay, which expires on Jan 1, 2009. The AOS application is still pending on Jan 2, 2009. On Jan 2, 2009, he becomes subject to removal as a deportable alien under section 237(a)(1)(c) of the act because he has remained after the expiration of his nonimmigrant admission. For purposes of future admissibility, however, the pending adjustment application protects him from the accrual of unlawful PRESENCE
This example got me worried a lot. I am sure most of us always thought that since we have a EAD, we can leave H1 and get another job on EAD while I-485 is pending. I for sure wasn't aware that we are expected to file something to get an extension of stay or change of status.
Now, my questions to our experts are
1. Since I am within my I-94 expiry date., am I in lawful status?
2. Since my H1B (which was used for my I-94) may have been revoked, does it mean that I-94 which I have on my passport is invalidated?
3. I know I am not accruing unlawful presence because of AOS Pending.. but what about status?
4. What should I do now to correct ...? my I-94 expires in another month.
Please help!
