I have been at many occasions when the national anthem was sung. At each occasion, as soon as the song was sung, everybody in the crowd sang along out loud. So I expected the crowd in this rally to sing along as well. But it was all silence. I felt really embarrassed.

I am not sure about AP weather it gets canceled or what but I think you did a wise thing cos even if your 485 gets rejected you loose ur EAD and AP but based on your approved I-140 you can keep on getting H1 extension for 3 years. So H1 is much safer than EAD.
regarding AP thing consult with your attorney

IMHO, this is a legitimate website as I have been getting updates from them regularly and they are a supporting group for illegal immigrants path to legalization. As per the email I received today, anti-immigrants have sent 693,437 faxes to Washington this month to oppose reform.

Had applied on July 19th , receipt date of July 20th.
I never received any receipt notice and today I received transfer notice
WAC....
Receipt date Sep 14th 2007
Notice Date Sep 17th 2007.
Does it mean I lost the original receipt date of July 20th which should have been ideally my receipt date.

They should realize and should feel shameful for what they have done. It is sheer abuse of power and treating the immigrants without respect. I would even call this as HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION as this country preaches other country on how to treat the fellow humans.

Hi Guys,
My LCA has Computer Software Engineer as job title.I have 5 years of Experience as Oracle functional consultant.Currently I'm working as Oracle consultant.My 140 is approved and got my EAD card.In jan 2008 it will be 180 days of filing 485.I want to change my career towards IT Sales.
I have an offer from an American Staffing company as a Technical Recruiter.The job responsibilities include hiring Software Engineers.But the job title is different from my LCA.I want to join this company using EAD in jan 2008 and apply AC 21.Today I have checked with my Lawyer this is what she says"
In instances such as this, when we send the letter to the USCIS regarding AC21, we include the following details with reference to the job title. … Although the job title differs, the job duties are substantially the same. The title used by the company is their internal designation for this position."
She says that i will be able to work as Technical Recruiter using EAD.Any one can suggest me on this?I have very little knowledge about AC 21 and how it works
Thanks in advance

I would say:
1. Stay on H1B as long as possible. Try not to use EAD unless absolutely necessary.
2. Because of 1 above, if you switch to the new employer USCIS would know you left the previous employer. (since you will file H1B transfer).
3. I see that you have everything worked out nicely from your current employer to have 180 days for your AC-21 portability. You have to really evaluate if it is really worth going to new employer in Dec 07. (if there is enormous financial gain like pre-IPO etc)
4. There is nothing wrong in switching jobs before 180 days either on EAD or H1B but in order to play safe the best bet is to, switch on H1B after 180 days. Enjoy your paid holidays and join the new employer in 2008 with peace of mind.
Gurus,
Here is my situation:
I-140 approved - PD: May '06
I-485 filed - July 30 '07 (India)
EAD cards - Received
APs - Received
Due to a slowdown in their business, my employer is laying me off in Dec '07. I'm still short of 1 month to complete my 180 days of I-485 filling. However, they said they will not withdraw my I-140 and, to help me, will in fact keep me on their payroll until Jan '08, with my Jan '08 salary as my severance and my official status as on "paid leave". So far, so good.
I also have a job offer, and my new employer wants me to join them in Dec '07, on EAD. My question is: Can I be on officially on the payroll of two companies simultaneously on H-1B and/or EAD? If yes, do I need to inform the USCIS of my status (new employer; AC21)? My other option is to say No to the new (attractive) job offer (or to try to convince them to wait until Feb '08, which they'll likely not agree to), and and take up another job in Feb '08, on EAD / H-1B transfer, using AC21. Please advise whether I'm fine with using the first option!!

News Clips won't help much. Better to get some documents from your Company that shows it really is on the downside like financial statements. However, make sure you also have a proof that when they applied for I-140 and you applied for GC, the company is still in good financial status; that is was only later that the company suffered losses.
92 days lapsed after submitting your GC application and you were approved. Do you have anough evidence to say that in June, the Company is doing alright but not now, September? that in June, your position is still available but not anymore in September? that the company did not hire any replacement for you?

Finally I gave a thought to all this GC business and I am planning to start my Canadian PR too, here are my questions :
1. Does anybody know of any good immigration cunsulting company for Canadian PR processing ?
2. How much would be the total cost to get it done throught the consulting services ?
3. Are there any hidden costs which these companies tell you at the end and try to rip you ?
Thanks
1) Best do your own job. The agents/consulting companies most dont do a
good job.
http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=33
Thats the newsgroup of can immigration.
You need IELTS score 7 in each section. It takes about 1.5 years if you apply from US.
"3. Are there any hidden costs which these companies tell you at the end and try to rip you ?"
Companies will always say u qualify to get you on board (for the money they get)
well companies will put the burden on u to get 7 in each section.
So my advice is u first get 7 in each section. Then only u will know if u
clear passmark. Note: 7 in each section is not a walk in the park. U need
practice(stategy).
For details see Canada immigration section in britishexpats.com
Even then if u want some help (because u dont have time etc)
contact andrew miller or jim humphries (who post in the newsgroups
often) They do have knowledge of the rules etc which u yourself can know
by reading on the newsgroup.
Cost are (if u do yourself) for one adult person ( of course family members dont need ielts test) Note: child has lesser fees
550 Can $ + 475 Can $ (if u get through) + IELTS fee (120Aust Dollars approx) + medical testing (depends on where u do india or us)
+ transcript fees + mailing feee + other smal fees.

porting can be beneficial but attempt it only if you are 100% sure that it will succeed and talk to your lawyer before you do it and don't attempt to do it yourself. it will be a lengthy process with increased scrutiny. 3-4 months for labor and atleast 1 year for 140 processing and moreover DOL is making it tougher for EB2 with strict adherence to the rules and increased scrutiny. after all this, there is a very high likelihood of getting RFE from USCIS at 485 stage. if any EB3 person has EAD, AP then it would be best to play it safe and stay with EB3 as you already have the benefits of EAD and AP. I know it would be much much better if you have a green card, but would you have it safe and sure or do you want to go through all the stress of refiling and preparing for all the problems in the process? it should be ones own personal choice. moreover I am hopeful that things will move favorably after the elections with the immigration reform and might result in some relief for all EB categories

Thanks so much for sharing this information - it is frustrating that one's career advancement can impact negatively one's GC application, especially if one has been waiting for 5+ years. I guess one can only carry on with one's career and hope for the best :).
As per the current guidelines adjudicating officer makes the determination based on Department of Labor SOC/O*net code in the Labror Certification Application (ETA 9098) form. ( It's very critical to have a copy of LC application, before considering AC21. If you don't have it through employer, you can get a copy from DOL through FOIA request )
DOLs SOC/O*Net gives the job description for the Job code as well as "same or similar" jobs (if you search on your SOC/O*net code)
http://www.onetcodeconnector.org/
Here's an example - http://www.onetcodeconnector.org/ccreport/15-1031.00
This is the website IOs are supposed to be using (as per guidelines). Becoming a Sr. Software Engineer from Software Engineer shouldn't be an issue. Salary hike beyond 50% could (or could not) be a problem based on the IOs sole discretion. 50% is just a ball-park assumed by most immigration attorneys. In reality, there is no such preset limit. It's entirely upto the IOs decision.
Promotion as manager is a tricky situation, as Job description changes. IO may consider it 'same or similar', or consider it altogether different. In such cases it may be possible to prove the jobs are similar by obtaining an 'Expert Opinion Letter' from an expert in the field ( such as a Professor of Computer Science from a University).

Firstly, i would like to thank you for replying to my question. Please find the below email sent by my lawyer today:
As per our conversation, attached are the two lists that you can review.
Starting from November 1st *Onet has changed the positions for software professionals, please find information below according to *Onet http://online.onetcenter.org/
There are no EB2 positions available for the Software professionals, only EB3 positions are available. However as we discussed earlier if the company has a business necessity and are able to produce the documents for the business necessity you can file the case under EB2, which is still beyond the requirement according to Labor Department.

Thank you very much for valuable answer. I appreciate LazyCIS, pmb76 and sam. Then I will wait till 180 days to go.
Just to clarify, Do I need to look / take jobs only permanent after 180 days?
Thank you,
Mani
Take a permanent job which is "same or similar" to the one in the underlying LC.

I would suggest not to risk renewing your passport in India just because you don't know if you would get stuck for some odd reason or another or not. As many have already posted on this thread - do it in the US if you have the time. I did my passport renewal from the SFO office a couple years ago and it was a simple straightforward process by mail (2-3 weeks).
