It's been several years since the employment-based preference categories developed huge backlogs. However, no one was prepared for today's announcement from the State Department that most of the family-based categories will retrogress between one and three years beginning on January 1, 2011. Consider the worldwide categories: Beginning in January 1, the 1st preference category (unmarried sons and daughters of U.S. citizens) goes from a 5-year to a 6-year wait. The story is much, much worse in the 2A category (spouses and children of permanent residents) where the wait expands from a mere 4 months to 3 years, a 9-fold increase....

I am a July 2007 filer. I filed for I-485 using the old fee structure and also applied for AP in July 2007. My AP got approved in 07 but expired so I had to apply for AP in Aug 2008. So I filed in Aug 2008 and paid $305 for AP fee. Now it's to reapply for AP as it expires soon; however I was under the impression that I wouldn't have to pay for AP fee again. I sent the forms to USCIS but the AP package got returned as they claim i don't qualify for free fling.
Anyone else in this position (I am assuming a lot of you guys are... please share your experience). Do we have to pay every year for AP?
Thanks!

that cancel her H4 visa ?
No, this should not cancel H4.. But using EAD for work will do...
You can use EAD to get SSN, DL...
H4 status and AOS pending are not mutually exclusive. Meaning one can have AOS pending and still be on H4. Applying for SSN on the basis of EAD doesn't invalidate one's H4 status.

I am applying to renew my EAD and looking at the paper Application on page 7 I see that if you are C9 which all of us are mostly..we need not file an application fee..
Is it true..
Plz help
If you paid the new fees when you filed last year then you don't have to pay the fees again this time. But if you paid $180 for ead then pay again now.

Hi,
Some where in May I heard the news that end of this year USCIS is going to halt concurrent filing of I-140 and I485 and introduce an extra step called preApp of I485 which can be done only after an I40 approval. I would like to know if this is really going to happen?
I have an approved I140 and a PD of Apr 08. I am planning to change the company now. My doubts are
1) Suppose if USCIS changes rules and introduce an extra step for preapp of I485.
What will happen if I switch company after 180 days of preapp of 485. can I invoke Ac21 ?
2) will I be eligible for EAD/Parole after preapp of 485?
Any body having any knowledge about this please share.

The Wall Street Journal reports that DHS will "intensify" its enforcement efforts against employers around the US: John Morton, the new chief of U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement, a unit of the Department of Homeland Security, said that the agency is set to increase the number of companies it will audit and systematically impose fines on violators. Violations could also lead to criminal charges, he said. *** "You are going to see audits regularly and on a larger scale," Mr. Morton said during a two-day visit to southern California, his first since being appointed four months ago. "You will see...

Hi
I am in my 8th year H1-B( came in 1999 first to USA) extension based on pending I-140 & I-485 , I have my 2nd EAD in So now my question is
Is it safe for me to switch to EAD or keep extending my H1-B till I have my I-140 and 485 is approved? My I-140 has been pending for the last 2 yrs because of the FBI security checks etc. Since my H1-B extension beyond 6 yrs is based on pending I-140 and I-485 does it really make sense to keep extending it since I have to pay from my end my employer doesnt pay for it or is it better to be on EAD?
Thnks

Hello:
I'm Canadian who've worked in US for the same employer under L1 Blanket for almost 3 years, my current L1B will expire at July 2011. I heard a lot of L1 extension get rejected recently, I wonder if I can have a fresh L1B petition (I-129) with another 2 year, then go to US-Canada border and turn around with the fresh L1B petition, so I can stay in US for anther 2 years.
My only concern is that, do I qualify the '1 year working at foreign branch within 3 years prior to admission to US' requirement? considering I've been in US almost 3 years already.
Thank you for your help.

Sorry for posting this question again. but since I did not get an answer, I am posting again to see if some one can advise regarding this. I am trying to look up dates for H1 visa stamping in Canada and the website says no appointments for 6 weeks. I am thinking of going for visa stamping in July. is there any chance that they might open up some more appointments in the next few days even though it says unavailable currently? please post your comments and experiences regarding this.

The US has won the Nobel Prize in medicine for work done by these two scientists as well as Carol Greider. Blackburn is Australian-born and Szostak is British-born. They received their award for genetic research that is described here.

New Majic Jack introduced to hurt cell phone companies. New jack is a small cell tower at home and can place calls from any GSM phones to that tower (jack) routed to the internet.
So for $40, we can make unlimited call from cell phone for 1 year. So we can save cell minutes and eliminate the need for a land phone.
See the link for more details.

Yes for extensions - Auto revalidation only from contiguous countries - Canada, Mexico and some islands.
There are several other requirements - take some effort and google it !

Filed I 485 mid June. I'm in the same boat as you, did not get receipt date. I hope they do not send the application back... I was wondering if the July bulletin affects those who filed I 485 in June.
