I have a question regarding where to file my EAD renewal application. I am a July filer NJ resident and my I-485/EAD/AP were sent to Nebraska and got the AP/EAD approved through Nebraska going by my LIN no. As per the (C)(9) rules it says NJ residents should file to Texas service center and somewhere else I read that my EAD renewal application should be sent to the location where my I-485 is getting processed.
Please share your experiences.
Thanks

Hi,
I am posting this on my friend's behalf. Here's his situation:
a) He's on H1
b) Applied for 485 / 765 / 131 through his employer.
c) Still on H1; EAD & AP approved.
d) Priority date no longer current for 485
e) He gets married.
f) Wife comes to US on H-4.
g) He's interested in switching jobs so that he can move on to new company and utilize his EAD, but since his wife is here on H4 - she would lose status.
h) Another thing is, she is also interested in working but can't do that on H-4.
Question: Is it possible to add her name as a dependent on his existing 485 & apply for her 765 & 131 (EAD / AP), even if his PD is not current? I've heard that some lawyers can file petition; but they charge hefty amount. But I've also heard that PD needs to be current in order to add his spouse's name as a dependent to 485 / 765 / 131.
Please let me know if it's possible to add the dependent regardless of PD being current or not.
Thanks in advance.

Hi my father lost his passport at the airport today and with it his I94 and US B1 visa. We do have scanned copies of his US Visa and Passport. I would appreciate any pointers on the following question -
1. What are my next steps?
2. I figured from browsing few sites that he needs to apply for I94 - does any one know of any vague ETA there?
3. Would he have to go through his visa stamping again?
Much apprecaite your reply.

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.

CubedFlash,
Maybe you can give me my answer. I imported a file from Swift 3D, published, F12 to view, and then went control enter to view the size. After almost choking when I saw the size it added to my SWF (255K for a 7 letter word, spinning) I decided immediatley that was intolerable to my movie size requirements, and deleted the entire Swift 3D animation from my Movie. Took it out of the frames, the library, every place imaginable. And I was floored to find what it did to my Fla. It ruined it. My Fla went from 605K to 8.9 MEG. For all the various purposes of how I use an Fla, it is ruined. The ghost of that Swift 3D stays with my Fla even today. Like a cancer, cannot get rid of it. Can you tell me how to get it out so I can restore my Fla?
Sincere Regards,
pj

This is the website to check labor status at the BEC.
http://pds.pbls.doleta.gov/
My case was filed in Nov 2001. In Oct 2006, the DOL stated that they lost my case (I did not receive a 45 day letter). So my lawyer reconstructed my labor and filed it again as per DOL's instruction. I received a 45 day letter in Apr 2007 which showed my case no. Since then I have been checking the case status online.
very sorry to eahr that.....did urs get approved yet

I think it's not wise to leave. I tried googling for h-1b transfer & leaving the country but didn't get much info. I think if a transfer is pending with USCIS then you shouldn't leave the country as it may be considered as abandonment of the application.
i would advice to get it done under premium processing. i am not sure when the i-94 records are updated but if USCIS sees that you left India while the transfer is pending, they might issue you I-797 but with instructions to get it stamped at a consulate in India.
just my thoughts..better try googling or ask some lawyer.

If you have an approved I-140, you can port the PD as long as your original sponsor does not withdraw his petition. Since your company is being acquired (as opposed to you quitting on your own) it is highly unlikely that your petition will be withdrawn. So as long as you continue doing a similar job as the one for which the LC position was advertised you should be fine.
Hi All
Thanks for a great forum. I am EB3 India (PD Dec 02) with 140 approved June this year. Rumor has it that the small firm I work for, is going to be acquired by a much larger firm with thousands of employees globally. I am concerned about my ongoing GC process. First question
Q1. What happens to my GC process?
Considering the behemoth like size of the company that is going to acquire us I am quite sure that the GC process of the few employees from my present employer will take a back seat.
Q2. What are the things I can do proactively.
I have read on various threads that it is possible to join other employers and port the PD to them. But considering the fact that company that started the GC process is no longer there, how would this porting of PD with new labor, 140 etc would occur...
I would appreciate if someone can provide answers to my questions. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Same thing with me. My priority date May 3rd, 2006. I got EAD renewal email today.
Hello Folks,
I'm Aug-2005 EB2-I.
Haven't received my GC yet.
I think, based on various experiences mentioned here, opening a SR, taking local immigration office appointments, etc is a way to get USCIS to look at your file.
I also read, if there was a pending EAD renewal, your case might get looked at and instead of renewing your EAD, USCIS will rather give you GC - provided PD is current and there are no other issues.
I know none of these 2 things have a documented backing...apart from people's experiences (which, I value a lot - don't get me wrong there).
My EAD was also up for renewal - filed in June. Got the "card production ordered" e-mail @ that yesterday. And, no change on the AOS case.
So, should I take other steps @ my AOS case - like, opening a SR, taking IO appointment, etc ?
Thanks

We shall continue our work by writing letters to lawmakers.
They shall freeze the VB at May so people come out from LC Backlog can have a chance to file 485.
They shall allocate all unused Visa numbers in previous years to people stay in backlog for years.
They shall revise the current Name Check procedure so the process can be done predictably.
They shall increase visa number cap and soften the country limits.
They shall pass SKILL BILL...
We have only a couple weeks before the summer recession. We need to keep our solidarity to make our dream true.
