I just came back from doc..and he charged 400 dollars (xray will cost more in next few days. Anyways, he says he need to administer Tetnus 3 times (6 months apart).
I am not sure what he will say in report (which i get in couple of days). But my question to you all is :
When Shots are given with time lag, Is 485 processed normally or RFE happens or do USCIS just wait for all shots to be completed and submission of report by doc before they process anything?
Please Reply
Only DTAP is needed once actually my doc said that tetnus only is sufficient but DTAP is much better. I think this doc is making it up.

Btw, NBC might not do anything with it at all, but NSC on the other hand might..
PS: I know its a typo, so just kidding here..
Oops! ;-) yeah... dont think NBC will care much about my EAD :D
And yes.. i want to get EAD asap! ... I read it starts counting from the moment it gets to NSC.. but different versions abound..
tnx.

Thank you so much Elaine for your quick response..
So am I correct to assume that there is no need to renew the I-94 if one enters using the AP.. I am myself also planning to use my AP for re-entry later this year, but have the H1-B approval valid till 2011, so was a little confused as to if I would be needed to renew my new I-94 if it is issued for 1 year based on AP..

Hi,
Note: I have already posted this on the "Ask an attorney" forum, but I would also like some input from the experts here.
Thanks.
Onto the issue:
My wife(on H4, no 485 filed) is going to be out of the US for the next couple of months and I need to know the effect of my 485 PD becoming current (and approved) during this time. The following are the details of the situation.
My 485 is pending with a PD of Dec 06 and I am on an H1B visa. The 485 was filed before I got married, so my wife is currently on an H4 and has not been able to file her I485. She will be traveling outside the US for the next couple of months. From the visa bulletins I have been seeing over the last couple of months, it looks like there is a slim chance that my PD will be current.
One of the options as I understand is that she could travel back as soon as the PD's are announced and if we know that the PD will be current in the next month. At this point she could file her I485.
My question is about what the options are if she is unable to make it back to the US in time. i.e. she is outside the US and my I485 is approved which means she cannot travel back on the H4 (as its not valid). What are the timelines we will have to deal with if she has to stay outside the US to have her I485 equivalent filed through a consulate? Is there anyway she can travel to the US once my 485 is approved?
Thanks.

... would be to outsource the mundane clerical work to a more efficient *on-shore* processing firm, and web-enable most services, remove repetitive submission of same documents with every single application, and provide customer access to his/her immigration profile & docs online (so we don't have to carry around the history of our lives on paper.... wherever we move... ).

It would probably be OK... but as you've rightly guessed, and given the fact that USCIS hasn't really outlined any plans to demonstrate how the extra money will be spent and whether it will guarantee better and faster service measured by a dramatic reduction in processing times, this money is probably going towards enforcement.
It's probably DHS getting the money (not USCIS directly - the checks I wrote were for DHS, iirc).

I got a brilliant idea guys, I am sure it is not new but it looks now is the right time to pursue it.
Apparently it would be very difficult to fight FBI namechek delays. After USCIS was swamped with a pile of cases due to visa retrogression fiasco the processing times most probably will increase significantly. The visa retrogression is going to be reinstated.
Also there is a great injustice to those who had to go through the BEC black hole.
I think everybody agrees that the current green card process is a lottery where winners get everything in a couple of months and losers wait sometimes 10 years. (Yes I know such cases).
So how to fix all this in a way that it would not affect negatively anybody?
The answer might be very simple: Count the time spent waiting in the administration created lines towards citizenship. In other words the 5 year count starts not when one get the green card but from one�s priority date. After all it is not the immigrant's fault that he has the same name as someone who saw a suspicious person on the plane and was questioned by FBI as a witness.
This would PARTIALLY restore justice without punishing anybody.
USCIS will be happy as it would take off some pressure from their delays.
Legislators are happy as more people will be able to vote for them.
Immigration lawyers are happy as the measure would not take away their revenue, in fact it may even increase it.
All those who say in numerous interviews on TV �.. we are a nation of immigrants and we support LEGAL immigration but we do not want amnesty�� are happy or would have to admit that they are happy to save the face.
The current losers in immigration process would automatically catch up (almost) with the luckiest ones.
Immigrationvoice will be happy as I am sure many current waiters and even those who already got their green cards would contribute to support the measure.
Anti immigrants are NOT UNHAPPY since the measure does not increase the number of immigrants.
Employers are NOT UNHAPPY since the measure does not affect them in any way.
If immigrationvoice has desire and resources to suggest and support a measure to the legislature it better concentrate on this rather that on something like �� make FBI report namecheck results to the applicants..�.
Of course it would require changes to the current legislature but I cannot imagine that somebody would come out with a sensible reason against it.

I have an NRE account and I get a 1099-INT every year from my bank for that account. It clearly states that the interest has been reported to the IRS and therefore must be shown on the 1040.
We were talking about taxes at work and someone mentioned that all bank accounts in home country should be reported to IRS. I opened a bank account(NRE) in India before I came to US and get minimal interest income from it. Should I be declaring the income to IRS? The income is so low that I don't have to declare it in India so I didn't bother. I do not have a green card (am on H1B). Can you confirm if I am supposed to provide this info in tax returns. I did do some research on this and from news articles it seems like what my colleague mentioned is true. How do I go about providing all the info now? Is this going to impact my GC process?

- What was the RFE about?
In the RFE they asked for end client letter, w2 , tax retrns for last 3 years and a bunch of stuff from my company. All the necessary documents were provided. In the denial they said that all documents were in order but that they didnt prove my specialty occupation.
- Are you employed by a consultant or employed full-time at a company's location?
I am employed by a desi consulting company.. and i have been in a job continously since jan 2006
- Did your employer have any profit isseus / layoffs reecently?
No
- Is your employer TARP funded?
No
- Do you have your EAD?
No , i just completed 3 years of H1. i was planning to become fulltime and start GC before the economy went downhill.
Do you have any info if i can appeal and file another h1 thru another employer at the same time? because i do have a project that is long term...
its driving me crazy....:(

Almond I agree with you completely...I am not against questions being asked or answering questions...This community has been helpful to me in the past and I would be more than welcome to lend support....but a little effort would'nt harm....
There is a saying "SEEK AND YOU SHALL FIND...." No matter how old the information its always possible to dig it out...not only using this forumn search but also google search....I just hope people try and seek before ..that's all
But, but it feels so much better to come to a community of people who know exactly how you feel and are going through the same motions :). I think we're both right to some degree. I also believe that people do what I do: post the same questions on about 5 different forums and look it up at the same time and then gather as much info as possible. I don't mean to kiss my own butt (Ok I do) but THAT is being resourceful:D

I have finished my 6 years quota of H1B and right now I am on TN visa (I am Canadian). Since I started the green card process a little late, I still need more time to finish the green card process. So, my question is, is there any way I can go back to H1B visa again once my TN visa expires. I can not renew my TN because I have applied already for I-140 and that shows my intent to immigrate to US.
Thanks
Theo
..but do you want to. Have you not filed your I 485 yet? If you have filed I-485 and it has been pending for 180 days or more, get an EAD (I-765). If your priority date is not current and you have not filed your I-485, you can get a new H1B. With an approved I-140, the 6 year limit does not hold. You can keep on getting H1B renewals, in 3 year extensions, 'til such a time as you can get an EAD or your I-485 is approved. So, yes, its doable, but I would strongly recommned going to EAD, if you can.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, try and renew your TN. It has been wrongly pointed out by one member that I-140 is "not immigrant intent". Well, that is plain "WRONG". It is the I-140 that is the "Immigrant Petition". I-485 is just an application to "adjust your status".

I had this discussion with my lawyer. This lawywer has been touch with USCIS very closely and understand the process and how the system works (to the best possible for an outsider) and here is what has to say about LUD.
************************
Most I-485 will be adjudicated without any LUD at all. This is an because even today it is the physical file that is being delivered to an IO. IO will not touch the system if there had been no issue or no infomation to update.
If one is getting LUDs on any application, it most likely implies that some information is being updated. LUD most likely are for some reasons.
The process of adjudicating a 485 is multi step with many department involved. When the file reaches an IO for the decision , it is expected to be complete in every respect. If IO has any follow up question or any comments, she would then enter in the system that we se as LUD.
Thus, LUD in most cases ( and not all), if at all, is a potential indication of further delay..
I am not aware of any concrete reason for LUD on an approved I-140. My discussion with USCIS indicate that it may be due to updating of company specific information and not necessary related to individual case. Internally the the system recognize each company by a specific number.
Regarding your question LUD on AP, it should be unrelated to 485 as it is handled by a different department and lower level officials.

Out of the labor backlog that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For IV's unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of rules quagmire
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeoning of chance
My career is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this GC pace of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the delay,
And yet the menace of the rules
Finds, and shall finds me/us/IV unafraid.
Waiting in vain for Name check, Years wasted in pain
Though I know, I have never done nothing wrong
One day to be out of this nightmare is my hope
I know for sure without IV I cant cope
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul.

The processing times for I-140 applications in the TSC show no change since the last update. Are there any changes in the NSC processing times ?
I haven't been following the I-485 times for a while since my priority date (EB3/ Mar 2004) is not current and I'm more keen on the I-140 approval for now.

It is only either Nebraska or Texas now. No other centers process I-140. For Texas center, it is appx 1 to 3 months. But for Nebraska, it is anytime from 6 - 9 months.
filed through Nebraska Center. Receipt Date July 06, just heard from them 2 weeks ago - with an RFE!! I wonder how much longer its gonna taqke now...

Hi krustycat,
Any update on your I-485 application? I am in the same boat too, my attorney mailed our applications to Nebraska, nothing received so far. I did call the USCIS with the given # below, but they are asking me to wait another 10 more days, and they said they cannot submit Service request. -Thanks!
