McCain was always supportive of H1B and EB Green Card issues whereas Obama is not very supportive and would relegate the decision to his buddy senator from IL, Dick Durbin who sponsored the strongly anti-H1B Durbin-Grassely Act
I second this opinion. Republicans in general and John McCain in particular are in favor of EB immigration (going by their actions). Dems tend to be pro-labor and anti-immigration.

Yeah, that's true if you're a white male or an immigrant. The rest can easily get on welfare/social security. I've seen dozens of examples over my 5 years of being a landlord. Well, many low-skilled immigrants abuse the system as well. So, it's bullshit, Jack Nicholson: in this country millions of people just got it without busting their a$$es.

Hello,
I have a few questions regarding the application for AP for a dependent, and I would appreciate it if someone would answer them.
1. If the dependent is applying for AP, should I include the primary applicant's I-485 in the application packet?
>>> U mean 1-485 receipt notice then no, just apply the dependents i-485 notice
2. The dependent has an EAD. Is it necessary to include copy(ies) of the EADs with the AP packet?
>>> Yes, it shows the current status as on EAD.
3. If the previous AP has expired, is the applicationo process for a new AP different from that if a non-expired AP is being renewed?
>>>No, apply as renew, I had done this last time and it worked out alright
4. I was reading in some threads that the $305 fee will be waived if there is a pending I-485. Is that correct?
>>>No way man, we have to shell out(if you are july'07 filer), even otherwise does 305 really matter?? its not worth the hassle of rfe,denial refiling etc(just my humble opinion).If possible take a look at my blog post, might be helpful in writing a cover letter.
Thanks in advance!

Exactly the point that leads me to believe this:
ARE THEY SENDING EVERYTHING TO THE OLD LAWYER???
If they never updated the lawyer info....(AC21 papers being lost is not unusual at all, it happens commonly, as there is no set form for it, mail room does not know what to do with it and so it gets misplaced). However, even if they did not have AC21 info, they would have sent an RFE or at least NOID. All these could be LOST if they went to OLD attorney.
So Infopass is a good idea. To at least get this info and also to get the actual denial notice which may have to to the old attorney as well (to see on what grounds they denied it so you can file MTR accordingly).
Of course, a good attorney is a must.
All in all, I think, it should be ok at the end of the day (just a painful waiting period full of uncertainty) unless they revoked it based on some misrepresentation.
Good Luck.
I tried to get the denial reason but InfoPass doesn't seem to have that information or doesn't wanted to provide me because it;s denied on 12th they wanted me to wait for 2-3 days more for denial notice.

My company went through a 10% workforce reduction company-wide just when my PERM application was ready to be filed. Although nobody from my group has been affected, 2 people with the same job title from a different group in the same office were affected. Their job descriptions are entirely different. I have about a year and a half before my H1B expires. I would appreciate anybody answering the following questions I have:
1. In Form 9089, should the answer to Item 26 be 'No' since nobody in my group or area of expertise was affected?
2. If the answer to Item 26 should be 'Yes', is it sufficient to notify and consider the people laid off? I am confident that they will not qualify for the position. How long should this 'notification and interview' period typically be?
3. I have heard that my company can be sent an audit notice. In such a case, is it sufficent to justify that the area of expertise is different. What is the success rate for this?
4. If the audit response is rejected, what happens then? I have been told that the employee will have to return to his home country immediately and cannot refile his PERM application.

dont claim uei, it is for gc and citizens only.
That's not correct. Everybody pays UEI including the H1B people also. But if you are AOS status, the AOS demands you be in a job but it has nothing to do with UE benefits.

Understood every point of yours & I stand by what you said except for the language as it could have been a bit better. Regarding EB3 or EB2, maybe IV should work attaching a provision as part of its CIR work, which makes USCIS determine whether a candidate is in EB3 or EB2 based on the PERM & 140 instead of letting companies & attorneys mention it. If this happens the process will be much better as USCIS controls the categories & applicants do not need to beg a company to throw them into an EB2 basket or EB3 basket. Also, applicants can have certain amount of freedom from the companies.
When a process is flawed, there is always room for abuse. Of course, the abuse might be minimal, but when we see people with masters & 15 years of experience toiling in EB3 category it pains my heart. It is a fact there could be lesser qualified inidividuals who are in EB2 category, but the companies have managed to use these to hold the employees as hostage.
Hopefully USCIS someday understands this and takes control of assigning applicants into categories than asking company & attorney to mention.
Just sharing my two cents. Also, frustrations from EB3 should be tolerated by IV members, instead of beating them with "red dots". Because if we request members to put their time and effort then it would be mostly EB3 members as they are the "worst" affected. I am sure every year between july-sept most of EB2 members will do bulletin-watching & there is nothing wrong in it.
Next year by this time only EB3 will be here and I dont think many of the EB2 will even bother to read the forum. God bless EB3. Even for those guys with PD in 2003 if you think that you will be lucky in year or two, try buying lottery tickets too. You might win a jackpot.

I and my wife got our approved EADs in our hand in 17 days (Mailing day to USCIS to recevied date by us). Only strange thing is that my EAD is valid from 06/2008 to 06/2009. I thought the new EADs validity would begin when the existing expires. My existing EAD expires on 09/19/2008. I lost 3 months with this renewal.

Hello,
I am a filmmaker and writer, and am currently developing a proposal for a digital documentary on the experiences of dependent visa holders. The film primarily aims to educate potential dependent visa holders and their families about the limitations of life on these visas so that they may make an informed decision. It also aims to reach policy makers in the US and others who can influence policy change.
As part of my background research I have some questionnaires for the following categories of people.
1) Those currently on dependent visa.
2) Those who were once on a dependent visa and now have an H1 (or some other working status, not a Green Card).
3) Those who were once on a dependent visa and now have a Green Card.
4) Those who are back in home country after being on dependent status.
5) Those who are here on a primary visa but have a dependent spouse.
6) Those who are currently in home country but are considering going on a dependent visa.
The identity of the respondent is optional and s/he is not required to give any personal details. Please contact Vaidehi Chitre at dependentvisafilm at gmail.com if you would be interested in answering the questionnaires or in being involved in the research in any way.
I really appreciate your help!

Congratulations to everyone whose dates have become current. To all gurus. I wanted to know as to how does it work when it comes to procesing I - 485, what dates are important is it the filing date, or the Priority date? If two people file at same time with different priority dates who gets priority, one with earlier priority date or one with earlier reciept notice date or will the cases be treated at same level.
Reciept date will not matter, as you can file on any day in the month of July. Earlier priority date will establish the preference. When dates retrogress, the PDs (priority dates) are again important. The date that is current will get the application processed first. Right now everybody can file, everybody will get EAD, AP but the actual application will be processed according the queue that is established with PD. I am not sure though. Check with lawyer.

Hi,
was your first labor PD before April2004?
If yes,then they might have taken that PD.
If not,maybe we can see a forward movement for PD for EB2 in coming bulletin as USCIS might be trying to use as much visa numbers as possible.
Congrats and Enjoy!
No its I-485 I just cut and pasted the two emails I received, first at 10am then the second at 3 pm check online and the system had same messages. If its true I am having a party wow man thanks I did come to US in 1997. I do have a labor which was approved under RIR PD date 2004 but the employer refused to file I-140. Then again filed PERM in 2007 under EB2 and filed I-140/I-485 based on this PERM
