Hi,
My EB2 labor PD 12/2002 is in Philadelphai backlog center. With the online backlog case status now available, I wanted to find out about my case.
However, lawyer is not giving my case number. Is there any way to find out. Gurus please help with suggestions.
Thanks
Talking to your employer is better than asking attorney.Sometimes Attorny dont respond to the candidate.

Yesterday I went to a training for immigration attorneys in Sacramento, California. The jurisdiction of the USCIS field office in Sacramento (https://egov.uscis.gov/crisgwi/go?action=offices.detail&office=SAC&OfficeLocator.office_type=LO&OfficeLocator.statecode=CA) includes the cities of Vallejo and Benicia so I thought it might be useful to hear about any new local procedures. While I did not learn anything new about what is happening at Sacramento USCIS, I did learn about new procedures being applied to applicants applying for visas abroad.
It seems that applicants who have tattoos are being screened more carefully at their medical appointments. The belief is that an individual with a tatoo may be involved in gang activity which furthermore may lead to that individual engaging in substance abuse. In a published article included in conference materials at the American Immigration Lawyers Association�s (�AILA (http://www.aila.org/)�) annual conference, immigration lawyers Fernando Rojas and Magda Montiel Davis, explain what is happening:
Panel physicians are asking applicants about the meaning of their tattoos and the medical personnel conducting the exam will take notes describing the tattoo. This interrogation could lead to further questions about the applicant�s possible gang affiliation and criminal history. Applicants with tattoos are also being questioned by the panel physician regarding their substance abuse history. Apparently, panel physicians are making the assumption that applicants with tattoos are more likely to do or abuse drugs. If the beneficiary admits to any drug use, Consulates will use this information against the applicant in order to deny the visa by making a substance abuse finding against them.A finding of substance abuse is serious because an applicant who is a drug user or abuser may be denied admission to the United States pursuant to Immigration and Nationality Act Section 212(a)(1)(A)(iv) (http://www.uscis.gov/propub/ProPubVAP.jsp?dockey=9b60c646835045a30ceca097f0ca1 ba3). I would counsel anyone carefully who has a tattoo to be very honest about what the tattoo means. An applicant should be prepared to answer in- depth questions about something that may have been inconsequential to them. In my opinion, it would not be a bad idea to have the tattoo removed if possible. Of course the fact that a person has a tattoo does not mean that he or she is a substance abuser. It is scary that examiners are making that assumption, but I do not expect this scrutiny to go away. The best practice is to be aware that this questioning is taking place and to be prepared.

Anybody?
Contact your local lawmaker with your case details
Call USCIS - NSC
Write to Ombudsman
I hope you did all of this already. If not don't wait anymore
Because you never know, when the new fiscal year begin on Oct 08 for the USCIS the EB2 dates may go back to Mid 2003 and it will not quickly move forward until July or Aug of 09.
Best Wishes and Good Luck

I plan to use AC21 and apply G28. Any reasonable lawyer recommendation in and around bay area would be of immense help to me.
I tried Payal Singh and she is charging $1200 for AC21 and G28.
I checked with Arjun Verma and the cost is $400 for the same.
Still checking around...

Hi,
I am looking to switch employers. Although the job descriptions are pretty similar ( C coding, design, protocols etc.), my PERM was filed for Computer Software Engineer-Applications whereas the new one falls under Computer Software Engineer, Systems Software. Is this a risk during I-485 adjudication. Also my new salary is 50% higher than my original PERM salary (It has been almost 4 years since my original PERM).
Thanks.

This is what I think:
Report your address moving even within same comunity/zip if you have not done already ASAP.
If the address in Oregon is going to remain your permanent address then you do not need to report your stay in CA.
Hi
I was staying in Oregon.I am working in CA for the last one month.
My family still stays in Oregon and will continue there. We also moved to diff apt one month back in Oregon. ( In the same apt complex/zipcode)
I will stay here in CA for couple of months.
Can I give the present address in Oregon for all of my family members Since my family still staying there.
Do I need to give my present address for me in CA. I may be moving to diff apts here depending on project/confort.
Pls advice.

Just wondering if anybody is giving up hopes of GC and switching from H1B to E3D (Dependent of Australian spouse) to take advantage of 2-yr renewable EADs...? How long does it take to get the initial EAD...Continue working without pay (or is there a workaround) while waiting for EAD?....any problems getting visa stamped with a 'yes' for past immigrant petition filed...
7yrs in this country...EB2 PD of 10/07 due to job changes..no 140 yet, no 485...6yrs in same job? no promotions? with 3yr extensions...frustration beyond words...E3D seems to a ray of hope but no idea of complications involved.

Thanks for your reply. What does DMV care about to decide till when the license will be valid?
1. H1 visa on the passport
2. H1 approval notice
3. Can I show them the AP?

There are LUD's twice on my wife's and my 485 in last 4 days first was on Friday 9/5 and the second was this morning 9/8.
RFE on my wife AP (131) was issued 2 weeks back, we haven�t received the RFE yet, Expecting it in a day or two, last week my wife called USCIS to find out what the RFE was, USICS customer rep opened a service request on her AP since it was more than 10 days RFE email and we haven�t got the RFE mail.
What could be the RFE for her AP, other than photo? Any clues?
Are the GC numbers available for EB-2 India for new approvals?
I am guessing the RFE is holding up our 485 approval, I know I being optimistic here, but who is not when it comes to GC. I will update my post after I see the RFE.
We had LUD's on I485 on 09/5 and I (dependant) had a RFE issued on 09/05.
RFE on AP has nothing to do with I485. As people have mentioned I think USCIS maybe holding off on approving EB2 I/C apps.
Whats your PD/RD/ND/Service center?

Hi,
Situation- PD Current and eligible to file 485
Married but seperated. What should that person mention in the form?
If he mentions his wife's name on the form, would she get GC as well?
Does he need to submit any docs for his wife? Currently planning to file for himself only.
Please advise
Thanks

I am on EAD. my priority date is Oct 2003 EB3.
I got new job that requires security clearance, so applied and got preliminary security clearance and started working as a contractor at Federal worksite.
Now i got letter from Department of homeland security saying i am not allowed to work at Federal worksite because my Adjustment of status is pending from Aug 2007, also saying Contact USCIS to get resolved or provide evidence i am in touch base with USCIS regards to this matter.
Since my priority date is not current, USCIS is not going to anything.
While applying this job i gave my EAD copy. They accepted Now i do know why i got this letter ?
IS there any one had same kind of situation?
Where or whom should I need communicate at USCIS? do they give any letter?
Thanks
