Is there a way to find out if one's FP has cleared or not? I guess infopass appt may be one way - just wondering if there was an easier way to know where one stands ...
Thanks!
Thanks!

I-485 can be rejected if filed with incomplete initial evidence.
Folks, it is the time for us to be more careful than even to make sure that our lawyer files I-485 correctly. With there mistake, we can really get screwed up. All they can say one word �Sorry�.
It happened to me while filing for H-1 extension, I got only one year extension, based on Labor pending whereas my I-140 was approved at that time, they refilled at no cost to me with 3 year extension.
Here in I-485, refilling will not be possible, since by the time we get the receipt notice, the date might have moved back already.

I am derivative beneficiary and have a EAD card through my spouse who is also on H1B. I am currently on H1B and my own I-140 has an RFE.
I am getting an opportunity to venture into an non-IT business.
Can I start my own S-Corp or LLC using EAD and also continue working on H1B with my current employer? What will be status - H1B or Parolee(EAD)
Will I loose my H1B status as soon as I use EAD?
I would like to play safe and rather pass on this business opportunity to my current employer and remain on his H1B too keep my H1B status if it is safer.
Please advise.

Words in CIR are supporting high skilled. At the same time Schumer mentioned that they will not allow companies to replace Americans with lower wage foreign workers. You can easily get the meaning of it. First CIR need to be introduced. And it needs to seen What CIR will offer for high skilled immigrants. Many lobbying groups waiting with laundry list of demands for them. Basically every group wants unlimited guest workers and green cards. Someone in congress has to take leadeship initiatives without politics and without any bias. Then only CIR is feasible
I see some words 'brightest', and 'high-skilled'. Who is classified as 'brightest' and 'high-skilled'?
Can EB immigrants expect something out of CIR?

As leaders in NAFTA visa processing we like to update our readers on different visa categories and updates. This article is provided by our TN Visa Lawyer, Attorney Andrew Desposito.
For many who come to the U.S. seeking work, there are only so many visas through which they may legally work. It is because of this issue that U.S. lawmakers have been strict on immigration enforcement of illegal immigrants trying to work in the U.S., in particular those coming from Mexico.
For Mexicans and Canadians, the nonimmigrant NAFTA professional (TN) visa allows citizens of Mexico and Canada, as NAFTA professionals, to work in the U.S. in a prearranged business activity for a U.S. or foreign employer.
So what does this mean for you?
What this means is that if you are a person that works in a certain field, and have the education that corresponds with that field, you may be able to apply for the TN visa. Unlike the H-1B and its cap on how many visas are granted each year, or the J-1 and H-3 visas and their limited durations, the TN visa may be granted for up to three years and can continually be renewed toward the end of its duration. There are certain requirements of eligibility for the TN visa.
With some exceptions, each profession under the TN visa requires at least a baccalaureate degree as an entry-level requirement. If a baccalaureate degree is required, no work experience may be used to substitute it. In some professions, an alternative criterion to a bachelor�s degree is listed. For some professions, experience or licensing is required in addition to the degree. It is therefore crucial to know what field you may qualify under before seeking this visa.
Once you have determined that a TN visa is available to you, the next step is to find a U.S. employer willing to hire you in the job category related to your experience. During this time of economic growth, many companies are capable of hiring individuals from Mexico and Canada to fill those positions in the U.S. at very little cost. The visa itself is inexpensive to apply for at the U.S. Consulate or the Port of Entry. This makes it a far more attractive option to U.S. employers instead of the H-1B or L-1A visa and its many filing fees that come with it.
With an employer willing to sponsor you for the TN visa, all that remains is preparing for your TN visa.
Preparing a perfect TN Application
There are many little parts that go into putting together a successful TN visa package. There should be no question in the mind of the immigration officer at the Port of Entry or the U.S. Embassy that you, the employee, meet the position requirements as listed under appendix 1603.D.1 of the TN visa, and that the company is an established business that has the need for your position.
The immigration officer will ask questions regarding the nature of the business, the position you will be employed in, what your position entails for the company, and may even ask for examples of work that relate directly to the position being applied for.
The Technical Publications Writer is a TN visa category that many individuals can be qualified to work. The position requires a Baccalaureate or Licenciatura Degree or Post Secondary Diploma or Post Secondary Certificate, and three years experience. The degree requirement is very broad in that all it takes is a degree or diploma in a related field to the company that the position is held. For instance, there was a case where the Technical Publications Writer was to assist a new media company in the design of its materials for publication on its websites, revise product instruction, and review and research social media publications. A degree in English was the related degree necessary to fulfill the duties of her position.
When trying to figure out if one has the three years experience as a Technical Publications Writer, the occupational outlook handbook provides guidance on whether one can hold such a position. A Technical Publications Writer helps a company by reviewing published materials, recommending revisions or changes, arranging typing, duplication, or distribution of materials, as well as editing, standardizing, or making changes to materials prepared by other writers.
The Technical Publications Writer may also complete specific writing projects for the company. Looking at a person�s prior work experience, it is not usually difficult to see that many duties one performed were similar to what is required of a Technical Publications Writer.
Although work experience and degree are the requirements to holding the position, as outlined in the Appendix, a person should be able to bring other work that has been done to show they can produce something that is published. What this means is that an immigration officer at the embassy or the port of entry may feel the person does not fit the job description because they have not published something.
Although there is nothing in the requirements for that position requiring a published material, it is good to be able to show one�s prior work has been published in some capacity. This is good for when a person applying for the visa gets an officer who does not understand that the word publications in the TN profession does not mean a person must be published to hold the position. A recent client went through this similar situation where they were not convinced the person should be a Technical Publications Writer because they did not have any published material.
As attorneys who have worked on many TN visas, we know what immigration officers are looking for in their interview with TN professionals. We understand that many of them need to see for themselves how your position and your background meet the requirements of the TN position. We have helped people get TN visas as Engineers, Lawyers, Management Consultants, Technical Publications Writers, and Economists. No matter your personal background, being a professional under a TN visa is as simple as finding out what position fits you best.
Although some positions do have specific degree requirements, such as a lawyer, other positions require a degree in a related field, such as for the Technical Publications Writer. With an attorney that understands little nuances like this, it is possible to get your TN visa wihttp://www.h1b.biz/lawyer-attorney-1137117.htmlthout the wait through the USCIS process for other work visas.

i think any form of protest will get u arrested.. rally is a diff thing... ppl have to realise all these immigration benefits are a privilege and not a right... its just so plain unlucky that so many of us with Master's Degree were forced to file in EB3.
Change of government is the only way. Bottom line is no one cares about us... cos we dont have a vote, we play the taxes, we pay SS/Medicare.. they know we will be here until we are forcefully pushed out....
P.S: before anyone starts a question asking what i have done.. I'm a responsible "immigrant" and have done and will do whatever i can

i guess you could travel when an EAD/AP is pending, not sure.
But i don't think there's any way for you to get back into the country unless you have:-
1. h1/h4 visa stamped, or
2. approved AP (with the validity period of AP covering your return date)

1. Logically HUD document should work but again we are talking about Indian government so not sure. Insurance document might not work and I'm almost certain about it.
2. Notarizing: If the website says "Photocopy of all supporting documents including Photo should be notarized and attached to the application" then yes..
Not sure where you live but if it is driving distance then I suggest you go there.. Leave early and park on the north side of the street (it is free).
Need advise from someone who renewed Indian passport by mail at the San Francisco Indian Consulate.
My wife filled the application online and is ready to mail it, but there are questions regarding the supporting docs.
1)Proof of Residence:CGISF website shows applicable docs as Driving license or PG&E, Water or landline telephone bill displaying applicant�s address or
House Lease Agreement.
However in my wife's case, her name is not on any of the utility bills mentioned above and her Driving license has the old address.
Can we use the HUD-1 closing statement or home title as proof. Or can we use a insurance bill for this purpose? If not, please advise on other options.
2)Notarizing:I understand photo copies of any docs that I sent needs to be notarized.
Is there anything else that needs to be notarized?Your website says that "If applying by mail, Photocopy of all supporting documents including Photo should be notarized and attached to the application".
Do I need to notarize both the photos from page 1 and page 4? Please clarify.

Lets start IV wiki then....
and people here who are going through the process can contribute to it first hand.... coupled with moderation from admins.
What say IVians?
I just saw this in latest Murthy bulletin about USCIS using Wikipedia and other internet based sources to gather information. This is serious news.
RFEs or Denials May Not Be Based on Wikipedia Information
The USCIS has been known to use an ever-growing number of publicly available sources, including internet sources such as Wikipedia. AILA members have been receiving denials based on the USCIS's use of information found on Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia to which anyone in the world may contribute information. As such, it should not be considered an objective or completely reliable source of information. SCOPS advised that it has notified the service centers and there should not be additional RFEs or denials based upon Wikipedia.
It should be noted that, as a corollary, applicants and petitioners should not try to use Wikipedia as support for their filings or arguments, since it has been deemed an unreliable source.

I asked this before but did not get any answer. Trying my luck again. I lost my OPT card and unfortunately have no records what so ever of it.
Is there a way I can get a copy of this from USCIS?
USCIS will not give you a copy.
OK There are two places you can find your OPT CArd.
1. International Students Office of your College (if you had given thema copy, most likely).
2. The company that you were employed during OPT(Definitely they take a copy of this OPT Card. Check with them.)
Hope you will find Luck with this.

I'm on H1B visa and my wife is on H4 visa. We file our taxes as a joint return. My wife is currently studying for MS. She has received in-state tuition fees. We received 1098-T from the university. I'm thiking about getting a lifetime learning credit which will reduce my tax bill. My questions are:
* Are people on H1/H4 allowed to take lifetime learning credit for graduate studies?
* Will this have any negative effect on our greencard in the future?
Thanks.
