gc_chahiye: Thanks for the technical advice. I'll check with my attorney tomorrow. You said 30 odd days. That is more or less 60 days, and it's more than enough.
for an appeal they will tell you in the denial notice how much time you have. For a motion-to-reconsider/reopen the deadline is typically 30 days. Again, confirm everything with attorney, and keep them on their toes (check status with them every couple of days).
I think you will receive the RFE on time (its only been 8 days since the USCIS note about the RFE, it does take upto 2 weeks for attorneys to receive it).
All the best!

Thank you Ganguteli and Elaine for your responses.
It appears there was a problem with the website status update. Today my attorney received a letter that my MTR has been approved. I guess my I-485 is back on track now.
Thank you once again for your replies.
good to hear that it worked out ok in your case!
One Q: how long did it take for USCIS to get back to you with a confirmation that the MTR was accepted? [from the day you requested it]

Per the law no matter what:- You need to prove that you have a job and that should be same/similar job that of your Labor. I cant advise you to go with option 3 as it's at your will. I am not sure about option 2 if USCIS will really accept because you are supposed to have a job in hand. Green Card is filed based on Future Employment but it doesn't mean that you can be without job until you get your Green Card.
I dont have anything against you but just trying to tell what is what. I know it is not easy as said but try to get things solved as quickly as possible. Wish you Good Luck!

Well this is a organization that is run by volunteers and given what they are already doing I personally don't expect them to notify everytime a web fax is put up. I just make it a point to check the website regularly and do whatever I can to chip in...thats my 2 cents...
Well How do you know that all the members who are registered with IV is aware of this Webfax? Did you guys notify them in anyway? Do you expect/mandate all the IV members should be checking the website/forums all the time? No Hard feeling.... Just my 2 cents

Hi Friends.
I got the pink slip 3 weeks back with one month severance. So my target was to secure the job in one month to avoid loss of pay. Finally secured the job with 3 offers from 3 top companies.
Some tips if it may be helpful to others , that I recently expereinced
1. Read your resume thoroughly and see if there are anything that you can improve and make the resume with the core skills, do not make the resume of mix of different profiles, like dba, architect, project manager, make them all seperate.
2. Try to make the submission to the direct employer or recruiter on top of the chain. You can do that finding contacts on linked in.
3. Do not compromise a lot, this makes these recruiters to think that you are vulnerable for any exploitation, (happened with me, I kicked there butt after getting selected and telling them on why did I do that)
All the best to everyone.
Congratulations and thanks for the tips. This can be helpful to a lot of people.......

Usually when a lawyer gets blacklisted, there's lots of chaos. The lawyer's new reputation spreads like wildfire and there's a lot of staff changed. A lot of clients fall out.
In my case, I kept good relationships with other clients of my lawyer. I also became good friends with my lawyer's secretary due to being a customer for over 5 years. Yes, that's unfortunately how long I've waited.
All of them told me the same story. Too many miracles, case got investigated, blacklisted.
Ontopic: any other opinions please? A simple what is involved in the process would be greatly appreciated.

MIT Dean Says She Lied on R?sum?, Quits (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/04/26/AR2007042602333.html), Associated Press, Friday, April 27, 2007
Marilee Jones, a prominent crusader against the pressure on students to build their r?sum?s for elite colleges, resigned yesterday as dean of admissions at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology after acknowledging she had misrepresented her academic credentials.
Jones has been a popular speaker on the college-admissions circuit, urging parents not to press their kids too hard, and has told students there are more important things than getting into the most prestigious colleges. She rewrote MIT's application to get students to reveal more about their personalities and passions and to de-emphasize lists of their accomplishments.
But Jones, dean since 1997, issued a statement saying she had misrepresented her credentials when she came to work at MIT 28 years ago and "did not have the courage to correct my r?sum? when I applied for my current job or at any time since."
MIT Chancellor Phillip L. Clay said in a telephone interview that another MIT dean had received a phone call questioning Jones's credentials, prompting an inquiry that took several days. It found that Jones had claimed to have degrees from Union College, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Albany Medical College, but she had no degrees from any of those schools.
Jones had become one of the most public voices urging parents, students and especially colleges themselves to "lower the flame" surrounding college admissions.
Last year, she co-authored a book on the subject, "Less Stress, More Success: A New Approach to Guiding Your Teen Through College Admissions and Beyond."
"We're raising a generation of kids trained to please adults," Jones told the Associated Press in an interview last year. "Every day, kids should have time when they're doing something where they're not being judged. That's the big difference with this generation. They're being judged and graded and analyzed and assessed at every turn. It's too much pressure for them."

One friend of mine get his GC in the end of September/07 after filing AOS concurrently with I 140 in a middle of June 2007! His PD was Aug.2004(EB3-ROW)
Your friend was a lucky one (like me) who got a visa number allocated very quickly in that brief window. It was relatively rare, and you can guarantee that it is very far from the norm.
Like it has been mentioned in this thread:- rule of thumb, PD must be current for AOS in and out :)

Anecdote: An acquaintance of mine was married for a year and then they had marital issues. His spouse started living separately here in the US and then went back to India. The guy went to India on a trip to see his ailing father. His ex-wife's parents filed a harassment/abuse case against him and he ended up being there for 2 years. In that period his 485 was considered abandoned inspite of being in the country for more than 10 years.
I do not know the exact reasons for their marital discord, never asked and never judged.
The one thing which this country should teach is not to judge another person. No one has the right to insult/judge another human being without knowing the facts. Even if you do know the facts, you have absolutely no business to talk nonsense. Just farting out of your mouths anonymously on a public forum does not make you wise or a person of character. Shame on the low-lives who made ugly comments about OP.

If you do invoke AC-21, you might have problems with your petition as there seems to be a big difference between a Sr. Program Manager and a Programmer Analyst.
However, if i were you, i would still take up the new role and send in the AC21. There is a possibilityt hat they will approve it.
What's the point of a GC if you are locked in on your career growth anyways!?! Remember, these are your most productive years!

Can someone please confirm if "Card Production Ordered" email from USCIS mean my 485 is approved and I have gotten GC ?
Also if May bulletin is Unavailable it still means that GC;s issued if your date is current in April are valid ? My email came yesterday same day as the new May bulletin ?
May bulletin is effective only in May 09, so you are in good shape.
Congrats.

we just came back from india (June end) to SFO
At primary area the officer just saw AP, scanned passports, checked something in the computer and sent us to secondary area.
At secondary inspection just submitted APs(all copies),passport. After 45 mins they called us
returned the passport, I-94, and one original AP all stamped
If you are married and your wife is coming alone make sure she has all original copies of AP
We came from ahmedabad, and the immigration officer knew about AP so was smooth, but can be a real headache if airline guys are unaware of it (headache means time consuming).
hope this helps

Yes, I am also going through the same process. But if you pay off everything, you have to pay 2% of your loan amount as penalty fee.
So, I am advised, that we can just keep the last 13months EMI, and pay off the remaining to avoid that 2% fee And let the 13months EMI be paid normally.
Its same for every bank in India.
This is an option. I did one more trick. Made big part payment and asked them to reduce my EMI. Now I have EMI of Rs. 1200 for next 13 months. No penalty.

What are the requirements to port from eb3 to eb2 with just an i 140 approved? I am happy with my current employer. I have worked with this company for 5 years now. I have a master's from a well known university in the US. At the time of applying for gc, attorney and company advised to file in eb3.
Thanks.
That means your current position qualifies as EB3 only!! If you want to port you need to find a EB2 qualifying job:)
