The reason I am asking is that my lawyer is telling me that since the I-797 is valid till Apr 2008, I cannot file for I-797 extension. However, since the I-94 is valid only till Sept 2007, I have to file an "extension for I-94" till Apr 2008. Come Apr 2008 and I will have to file for my 3 year extension again.
I thought its a good idea to get some info from you guys and if there is a link that confirms I can file for 3 year extension based on my I-94 (which was given later than I-797), even though my I-797 is valid for a year, it would be a great help. May be the lawyer is trying to milk me two times ....
Please give me any web link you know of to say that I-797 extension can be filed even if more time is left on I-797 IF I-94 is valid only for 6 more months or less. ( Given that I-94 is newer than I-797 )
Thanks to everyone.
Please let us know what you end-up doing?

What does your Notice to welcome mail looks like Do the have anything like "Your new permanent resident card should be mailed within 60 days following this registration or after you complete any ADIT processing referred to in the welcome notice, whichever is later" in the Sentnece. Please uodate. Does that mean an inperson interview
Two sets (4 emails between spouse and self) of CPO emails on August 7th, welcome email on August 8th. That's it so far. And a soft LUD on August 9th.

ok..finally I got my interview letter for Aug25th.
Note: Calling USCIS helps..it was just a coincidence, that today morning I was able to get to Level-2 customer service and she told m that our interviews are scheduled for aug25th..and noon we got letters.. :D
One important thing is, our PD is mentioned incorrectly on interview notices.
Both PD and RD is Aug 8th, 2007, which is infact my RD.
My PD is Dec 2005.
Has anyone in the same boat or does it matter during the interview for approval?
That is waht I call luck...Cp filer I guess. But how come many 04 Cp filers are waiting and you got it...Thats USCIS my friends....someone picks up ur application and u r in business...
BTW_ how did calling help...u got the letter same day u called..so everything was done already...OR is there a super fedex (teleporter) service USCIS uses if you call them to deliver the letter to you in 2 hrs...
Good for you...go or the interview PD/RD should not matter...they called u and u go see them. Dont worry abt dates..

My GC is approved (last year old story) and my wife and my daughter got RFE. This RFE information I found in checking the status.(every day 3 times)
I did call my lawyer and she told me to wait for 2 weeks. Finally she told me the RFE regarding marriage, birth certificate of my wife and birth certificate of my daughter. I did send all info to the lawyer in June 2007 and she may missed to send or USCIS missed it.
Any way she want $500 each to reply the RFE, a total $1000. What the lawyer will do?, just send my papers and may send with a cover letter.
I did call the lawyer office and told them to send the original RFE to me. The legal assistant says no. Then I told her to fax the copy to me so that I can arrange the documents. She send me the fax. I did collect all the documents and made a cover letter by myself and made a neat arrangement of all papers with tags and send to Nebraska (included the RFE copy on top).
I saw LUD after 3 days and GC aproved within 10 days. After 1 month lawyer asked me money and papers. I told her we already got GC.
So moral of the story is not too much depend on lawyers. You may need if there is an interview. Otherwise a waste. If your case is straight forward, don't worry. You can change the lawyer and make representation by yourself. When the PD is current GC will come automatic. Lawyers have no role in that. They didn't check your case every day. You need to look.

Thanks for the responses. What if she travels on a nonstop flight soon and come back soon. This will avoid one more check at any transit destinations. By the time Green card interview is scheduled (if it is scheduled), which I don't think will be in the near future, she will have a new I-94. So the only think that worries me is if she can depart using the copy of I-94 and if she can reenter using AP and new passport, which won't have the old H4-visa.

Hassan,
I am not an attorney nor a legal expert by any means. However, I can give you some information about how things happen in the state that I'm working in - Here every employee gets an "employment-at-will" contract, which means that either party (the employer or the employee) can stop the employment by giving the other a two-week notice (I believe it has to be in writing). If the employee gives the notice and the situation is amicable then the employee helps in the transition process, completes his/her projects, hands over tasks, etc. Also, as another forum member stated earlier, the employee receives his/her full pay, benefits, etc. for this period. If the employer wishes, it may ask the employee to not come to work but that doesn't mean that they don't have to pay the employee. If the employer gives the employee a two-week notice (due to down-sizing, layoffs, etc. BUT NOT DUE TO CAUSE, i.e., the employee messed things up and as a result was fired), then I have seen/heard of situations where the employer tells the employee to not come to work for the notice period BUT they are bound by law to pay the salary, plus the employee is eligible for full benefits for this period.
Two suggestions for you:
1) Get your H-1 B AND your GC transfer done ASAP. Don't waste any time!!!
2) Speak with your State's Department of Labor and seek their advice. If you can't afford an attorney see if there are any online lawyer forums or if there's any pro-bono (free) help that AILA or some other lawyer group can provide.
I pray that things work out for you betterment, ameen.

The following questions are not related to Immigration process. However, they are very much related to each one of us.
All of us have paid a percentage of our salaries towards US Social Security. Having been worked for say about 5 years in USA and one wanted to go back to his/her home country (say India). What would happen to so far paid Social Security amount.
I have worked in India (paid Provident Fund) and Singapore (No Provident Fund /Social Security unless resident is a �Permanent Resident� or Citizen) and USA (All most all residents have to pay Social Security).
In Singapore, if a person who is a �Permanent Resident� and paying CPF (Common Provident Fund) would eligible to take his/her CPF back after surrendering the �Permanent Resident� Card/Status.
In USA, I knew, we are eligible to receive Social Security after attaining a minimum of 40 points and one must be above 65 years. No matter, which part of the world we live, we are eligible to receive our amount provided if the Social Security is not bankrupted.
I heard that few other countries (in Europe) would transfer such Provident Fund/ Social Security amount to the respective individual home Provident Fund/ Social Security account, when the individual is returning for good. How true is this statement?
Is there such process exist in USA too? If not exist what should be done to initiate such process (transferring Social Security amount to the individual home Provident Fund/ Social Security account), when the individual is returning to home country for good.
Should there be any bilateral relations exists between countries to transfer Provident Fund/ Social Security amount.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. US has a "Totalization agreement" with a number of West European countries which allows their citizens to move their SS amount into their local PF-type account. I understand they have to give some declaration that they will not come back to the US for [U]work[U].
2. SS payment - on retirement - depends on your Date of Birth.
3. You have to accumulate 40 points. 10 years of work is not an additional condition.
4. Even if you relocated to India after staying here for a couple of years, whenever you come to US and work, your stay and contribution counts. 40 points accumulation is the only end goal.
5. When you apply for SS benefits, you should be legally present in the US.
6. Depending on your DOB, you can start getting reduced-benefits (roughly 75% of full benefit) SS couple of years before your ACTUAL retirement.
Thanks:cool:

if I renew my ead and send payment. then if I get the approval of 485 application, can I cancel the ead renewal and ask for payment back??
I know that it might be impossible to ask uscis for money back, but just want to be sure.
Thanks
Golden Rule: Never take chances with your immigration matters and never try to go cheap either.
Based on this rule, you should apply for your EAD extension.

I really don't see how calling a Congresswoman to state the obvious is a problem. This is far from controversial.
If IV comes up with a plan of action then fine, but each of us has an individual duty to speak up about CIS' affirmative misconduct.
My point is merely that we should not wait for
(a) inevitable disaster to strike
(b) complete set of data on usage (which we will never really get)
(c) perfect plan
before we act.
We need to alert Lofgren and the House Subcommittee that they should start monitoring and asking questions and putting the pressure on CIS NOW. Not in the fourth quarter. This strategy has already paid off for citizenship applicants (they have hired extra staff, and may have reallocated staff away from greencards).
Absolutely everbody should be able repeat the figures on p.34 of the 2007 Ombudsmans report like a mantra, in order to justify why Lofgren et al MUST ACT NOW. See http://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/CISOMB_Annual_Report_2007.pdf. In case anyone needs a reminder -- in 2003-2006 alone they threw away 146,085 EB greencards, i.e. more than an entire YEARS supply. They would have done the same last year if it wasn't for the hue and cry and DOS making the date current (the Ombudsman said they were on course to waste 40K last year, see 2007 report). We just need to stop that this year, and stop it early.
Which also means that we as a community shouldn't spend a lot of time before taking action. This is a totally straightforward issue.

If you're planning on applying for new labor under PERM please keep in mind if your application is going to Atlanta the wait for decisions is well over 3-4 months.
If the old company promise to file I-485 and you're sure they'll keep their word I would take it. Once you have your GC you can get a good job in a top company.

No point in incorporating in IVs agenda, if only 100 members feel motivated to do a very simple task like writing a damn letter.
IV can keep expanding it's agenda, but what's the use if members don't act on the requested action items. Let's act to make the current actions successful first. Then we can think about other agendas.
I can't believe this crap from the USCIS.
There is absolutely no logic to the way they work.
What can we do to correct this. Maybe it can be incorporated in IVs agenda

F1 is supposed to be a "non-immigrant" visa, you might find it hard to change to a non-immigrant status once an immigrant visa (aka I-140 ) is filed on behalf. Not to mention if you change to F1 , your H1B goes out of the window and I don't think you can have "AOS applied" status along with F1 . That's possible in H1 since it's a dual intent visa.

Guyz,
Cumon ... we all are trying our best to repair the situation. Murthy, being a lawyer has done whatever she could. Don't praise her for she's done, but at least don't critisize her. Which other law firm has so much 'free' info on their website in the form of Forums, chat sessions, FAQs etc. Obviously every law firm wants to earn money, but she is a dedicated lawyer working sincerely in her profession. She's not doing social service, I agree, but at least she is sincere in her profession.
This is the problem with Indians ... we will never unite.
I could not have said it better, There are lawyers who are so egoistic, my personal experience is like this - we call her she does not respond - we send emails - she does not respond - we get frustrated then go meet her person then she say why did you come without appointment. she has people who do not know how greet people - it is as if they are working with some hidden agenda- we are not treated like customers... in fact we are...
and she is not Murthy... I would not like to name her
so do please cut this crap of bashing people who have come forward to help the immigrant community - when it is ONLY going to benefit you why crib about it. if there is even business motive to it take - take what helps you leave the rest...
I am not saying you should not express your candid opinion. but trying to bash people/lawyers who are helping your cause does not really make sense at all.....
This America my friend everything needs to packaged well and marketed well....
Thats the truth...

Nobody is saying its wrong to confirm. All I'm saying is its utterly foolish to call up and ask even after knowing ur status. Either u wanna defend ur dumbness or just wanna show what an A** u are. They dont have online updates, text messages, email facility etc...just for fun u idiotic dumb.
i hear you friend. my EAD was approved on the 90th day and i know how much this slow torture of delaying causes pain. just wanted to hear from someone who knows that indeed USCIS Systems gets updated after couple of days.
U r too frustrated dude!!!. Relax and grow up.
there is nothing wrong in confirming your status with a level 2 IO and that too when you know that level 1 is a parrot reading from website and USCIS website updates are not reliable.
keep your skills with the rotting corporation who has hired you. no need to add to the discussion if you have nothing more than an empty hand just like your grey matter.

This information cannot be confirmed at this time. There is no internal memo or information to prove that that it maybe true. Even if this is suspended, it maybe because USCIS does not have enough resources at this time. It seems they are getting lot of pressure to clear the naturalization case backlog. There was a recent hearing on this topic.
EB immigrant applications have not generated enough pressure on USCIS to adjudicate cases faster. If people think this EB immigration backlogs are important for the administration to clear, they need to send letters in several thousands and not in hundreds.
Pre-adjudication does will not really have much difference in the current situation. If dates do not move forward, it will be of no use. Even if the cases are pre-adjudicated now, and dates move forward several months from now, there is still a chance of an RFE or an interview. USCIS can issue an RFE for current employment.

USCIS has the least priority to process Application filed from July 2 to July 17.
Under huge pressure from Congress and the Public, USCIS had to accept all applications. But some people from USCIS top management were really mad at Congress and The Public and they intend to slow process and reject applications files on July 2 to July 17.
In order to avoid pressure from Congress and Public again, they learned a lot from last time. They processed some applications filed on July 2 to July 17.
It is really frustrating now, what can we do, go back our home country or wait.
What u'r doing is accusing USCIS of discrimination.Dont throw out theories just becuase u think so.
Speculating is one thing but accusing is something else.
No offense
