AILA Leadership Has Just Posted the Following:
The battle for comprehensive immigration reform is going to be tough as Senate Republicans play politics with the critical immigration issue. The Senate passed its $44.3 billion fiscal 2010 Homeland Security appropriations measure 84-6 last week after three days of debate that differentiated the bill from its House companion on a handful of border security and immigration policies. Unfortunately Senate Republicans used the opportunity to add significant new provisions to the less controversial �extender provisions� including an extension to the Special Immigrant Nonminister Religious Worker Program and the Conrad Waiver Program for Physicians Serving in Underserved Areas. The Senate also included a provision promoted by AILA member Brent Renison to allow the foreign-born widows, children and parents of citizens who have died to retain their legal status to seek citizenship for two years after the death. Senate Appropriations Bill a Mixed Bag of Immigration Provisions (http://www.aila.org/content/default.aspx?docid=29510)
Senate Republicans added a provision to their chamber�s version of the bill (Schumer: Immigration bill to be ready by Labor Day (javascript:simplePopup()
Sen. Schumer the lead Democrat expects to have a bill ready by Labor Day that is more generous to highly skilled immigrant workers than those who are lower skilled and is tough on future waves of illegal immigration."
Even the Homeland Security Department spokesman Matthew Chandler said the Senate endorsement of Vitter's measure prevents real progress on immigration enforcement and is "a reflection of the old administration's strategy: all show, no substance."
In contrast, the Obama administration is trying to implement effective enforcement, he said. "We hope that the smarter strategy will prevail in the end, because the country deserves a system that works," Chandler said. http://www.reuters.com/article/politicsNews/idUSTRE5690F420090710 Reuters: U.S. Senate approves $42.9 billion homeland security bill.
Lets hope only hope the Senate and House conferees remove the fence building and E-Verify proposals that are obstacles to achieving a much needed reform of our immigration laws.https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/186823568153827945-4551757837994116508?l=ailaleadership.blogspot.com

As you have well passed the LC stage, it is very difficult to retain your old PD. Even if DOL send a new LC with old PD, it will be an uphill task to convey this to USCIS your to ammend your already approved 140 with new PD. This new PD information has to be carried over to both I-140 and 485. If you get a new letter/LC from DOL inform the USCIS (both 140 and 485) thro all means, like send a certified mail, inform over phone and take a infopass to correct the PD. Then keep your finger crossed.

Depends on when you sent your H1 renewal application. If you expect the approval by Jan, then you can wait as you can get at least 3 yrs of DL (p.s. - some states give DL beyond the visa expiry date)
Otherwise, use EAD to get DL for 2 yrs.

Will they hold the application in TX Srv Center and not release it till the lawsuit is completed? Will it prevent people from re-applying if their PDs become Current in Oct? Any ideas?

Hi all, I need help in explaining my situation if someone can help me . Here is my info that I know
EB3 ROW
PD : April 6, 2006 (PERM)
July Filer.
i140 and i485 July 2007 (Received by USCIS Texas Center September 10, 2007)
AP and EAD received September 2007
I want to understand the process so I can know the meaning of the Visa bulletin based on my situation.
I am guessing that right now I will have to wait for my i140 to be approved first before I can talk about i485. I checked the processing time for i140 at TSC and it is August 15, 2007. Any crazy estimate when I should get the approval?
Once my i140 is approved then I can look and match my PD with the visa bulletin EB3 ROW for adjustment of status.
I know there would be some more steps than these above. But are these statement above correct/incorrect?
Thank you very much

I came to US on H4, 3 years ago. Later I took my H1B with a recruiter and got it with I-94. It was valid up to 2007 oct. But I couldn't take up any work due to some problems. Recently I went to India and came back. At the port of entry I got new I-94 with H4 stamping. Means My H1 Is not valid now ? In this case, is there any way to apply for change of status again as my H1 is valid up to 2007. Or else do I need to apply for my new H1B again ? Pl. any one clarify.
Once you are counted in the H1 cap you don't need to be counted again to extend your H1 status. But if you went to the consulate and got an H4 visa stamp, you might need to wait again till h1 visa is available again in april 2007.
I am curious to know, how your interview went in the consulate. Because you were on H1, without working. If you were not working and not recieving paystubs you are out of status. Didn't that create problems when you change to H4 ?

I believe she can continue to work if she files H1 extension and has a receipt notice. But if you are pursueing the EAD angle you will need an EAD card in hand physically to go that route. In a way its good that your employer is supporting the EAD efforts but that also takes longer because of documents and information exchanges with the attorney etc. Hope this helps

For sure i can say that one can travel (if needed) just after applying 485. No need to wait until one gets the travel papers.However to enter in to the country again, one should have either a valid visa H1 or H4 visa stamp in the passport OR should present the travel documents related to 485 (which means some arrangements need to be done. say a person applied 485 on dec1st/06. left to india on Dec3rd/06. travel documents usually takes anywhere between 6-8 weeks. so these have to be sent to india sothat the person while coming back to US again, can present at port of entry)
Lawyers say as a matter of precaution.( For example there is a query to submit a passport copy once again etc;)
Once a person had applied for 485, till they get advance parole if they had gone out of US, the application will be dropped.
I did hear that if you are in H1 B then it is not the case, but lots of Lawyers are advising not to get out of country till the person gets advance parole.
I do remember seeing lots of discussion in one of the portals on this topic, I remember that counselor processing is the option in this type of case.
This is a complex situation, you should consult a lawyer.

My PD is current since I filed the case, after waiting for almost 8 months I opened the S.R and got the letter back explaining...."We are actively working on your case, however your case under extended background check�blah..blah..blah�"
What exactly is that? Do you know what they are trying to do? Is it part of delay tactics? What exactly do they do in extended background check does anyone know what it is?

As soon I got the receipt number, I started working for Company B. Now I have paystubs for almost 8 months. With those pay stubs, can i transfer to company C? If Company C files for a H1 transfer, with which H1B receipt will he file for transfer-H1B approval copy of employer A or H1B receipt of employer B? My attorney feels that my H1 transfer petition with Company B has got stuck in a security/background check, since USCIS has not responded to 2 SR's placed by my attorney and added that PP will not help if my petition got stuck in security check.

If a lawyer is handling the case, the originals were probably sent to him or her.
