Rest of the World.
The interview didn't last more than 10 minutes. She asked for copies of current employment letter and a copy of future employment offer letter. She kept my original (first) I-94 and attached it to the file she already had.
We were asked standard questions and additional proof of our relationship. We submitted copies of apartment lease, tax returns for 2006 (filed jointly).
'Have a nice day' is what she said to signal that the interview was over. On our way out I asked her if we are not supposed to get a decision today. She said she had to review a couple of things and that there's 'nothing to worry about' and we should receive written decision within 4 weeks. She did mention about 'a couple of security checks being pending'. I asked 'like name check and stuff', she said yes. I didn't say anything about that new memo regarding Name Check Pending for more than 180 days and just walked out quietly, because she didnt seem like she was going to take any more questions :)
Now I dont know what to do next? Any idea whats gonna happen? My PD, RD and ND all are current at this time.

I am planning on taking an interview date in Delhi. I read that for mumbai, you have to drop your docs 1 week prior to your appointment. Can anyone explain the procedure for Delhi, please?
I am still waiting for it to show the availablity. But I got HDFC receipt from India.
Once date is shown- I will apply for non immigrant visa on the website. Now will they ask me to put my petition info (I-797) at this time? Or I will just fill in DS 156 and DS 157 forms??
Once I fill in the forms (with bar code), I will have to take them along in the interview. Is it true?? Or I will have to drop out my docs. at VFS location even for Delhi consulate????
Please help ppl...this stamping ordeal is taking toll on me now...alas! I was born earlier ;):p

if it's any help i have a 2nd hand Sigma APO macro 70-300mm. like NikNikon i found the D70 kit lens much sharper generally, but the sigma when stopped sown to f8 or f9 at 300mm seems to be sufficiently clear enough and really helps for picking out faces in crowds etc. i recently went to a chinease new year festival and the extra reach of the lens blew me away. i could get full frame shots of the dragon mask even though i was stood further back in the crowd. being stopped down thoough i find if the light is less than ideal i need a very fast ISO to keep the shutter speed up. hope that helps :-)

Hello,
I am on L1 B visa here for last 2.5 years working for MNC (Fortune 200). The benefits folks recently contacted me and told me that I was not allowed to participate in US retirement plans (401K) due to L1 visa restrictions, and that they are returning all my previous contributions and earnings back to me as an income. They said that they allowed to participate me for past 2.5 years by mistake.
My question is if this is true ? Are there other folks on L1 who are participating in 401 K plans ? what are my options here ?
PLEASE HELP.
I have been in US on L1A for more than 3 years now....i participate in 401(k), my company matches as per company policy, company contributes to pension plan separately as per company policy for US employees.....
I am not a lawyer nor a tax expert and this is purely based on my personal interpretation.......all retirement/ welfare benefits etc have to be non discriminatory - i.e. any plan available to general class of employees on US payroll should equally apply to you irrespective of your visa status..this has nothing to do with whether company intends to sponsor GC or not or any other factor....only exception is B1 holders since B1 holders are not supposed to get US payroll........

Billboard - i understand your employer's concern - when I used AC21 back in 2003, with EAD, it was a struggle to get employers that would take me on - for similar concerns. I eventually found one, a startup in CA, that would. Their attitude was that their HR people tagged the expiration date of every doc, type of doc and immigration status of every employee they accepted for I-9 purposes, and had it enetered into a database linked to their mail system - every week it would email out to HR a list of docs that would expire for non-citizens and HR then worked with those folks to make sure docs like EAD's were being renewed etc.
A little proactive due diligence, common sense and not so modern technology will easily help keep the employer comliant and more receptive to folk on EAD.
I eventually got my GC from these same guys and this month will file N-400 for citizenship.

Good job Pratik. we should grab every opportunity we get to voice our opinion even though this TV interview was mostly on H1B visa cap and increasing the cap. Only 10 seconds or so were given to the lengthy green card process. Increasing H1B quota is not a solution for us. It would infact increase our wait times and backlog of applications. it is in the interest of Hi-tech companies to have the h1b visa quota increased so that they can get more skilled workers. However they know that once they have an H1B worker, they will have that worker for many years due to retrogression. Thus retrogression is not a BIG news story. We need to highlight the greencard quota issue and not confuse it with the H1B quota issue. I feel these are 2 different things. After watching the SJC and Senate proceedings I feel Retrogression and greencard quota issue needs more awareness and education amongst lawmakers so that it is not confused with H1B visa quota.
I think the whole point of increasing the H1-B quota and at the same time not easing the GC processing leads me to think that US high-tech companies are looking to employ Hi-Tech slaves just as they did when the U.S economy was largely dependent on farming industry, during the 19th century.
It's in their blood, and no one can get that out.
Get that point!!!
I think we need to get out on the streets!!!!

Gurus,
My PD is 2006 (EB2-India). I have approved I-140 under eb2 category. My wife is in AOS status. I am planning to file new I-140 under EB1 (for which I am qualified). If for some reason, my I-140(EB1) gets denied, will that affect my I-485 under EB2? Please share your thoughts.
Thank you and appreciate your reply.

I am starting this thread to collect examples of inefficiencies and inconstencies of USCIS . Also examples of hiding data by USCIS.
Whenever you give example of your experience if possible add:
1. Dates
2. Details of what happened
3. Action that you took and reaction by USCIS.
Some of the examples that I have seen on this forum are 1. Wrong photograph on AP 2. Totally different answers from customer service 3. Internal memo in USCIS not made public about holding visas for EB2 India etc.

Hehe ... thanks for enlightening the folks here but to tell you the truth - I have been doing this for years using Photoshop for all of my family and friends, just that I go to Fedex Kinkos which costs me .42 for a single 4x6 print ... :)
apume, you have been using it for years, but did not feel like sharing with anyone like hinvin66 ;). Thank you hinvin66 for sharing the info with us. :)
Don't attack me for pointing out the fact.
