The statements that were enclosed with the checks received from Insurance Company shows deduction of OASDI and Medicare taxes but not Federal and State taxes. When we contacted the Insurance Company asking for a tax statement we were told that they have mailed all the statements to the employer and they should include in the W2 statement. Upon knowing from the Insurance Company, we wrote an email to the HR asking for a corrected W2. The HR replied that we can report those wages even without a W2 from the company and later she replied saying she didn't received any statements from the Insurance Company and also they have changed the payroll company and so they can no longer issue a new one.
We are based in NY. We also called IRS to confirm if we are suppose to pay taxes on those income. The IRS officer said it should be included in the W2 and have asked to wait until 02/15. The insurance premiums nor the cost-plus-fees for the sick pay (maternity disability) were paid by us.
There is a bold note on the statements saying:
1) The tax information must be reported on year-end w-2 forms
2) Federal Law HR4331 states that all disability payments will be subject to the Social Security Tax for the first six (6) months only
3) This tax has been deducted from your payment in compliance with this law

Hi Guys,
I need your help on this. My cousin is running this small IT company in india and he mentioned that when US client sends their money to India via Pay Pal or some secure money transfer , they are charging them 4 % of transfer amount.
He ask me that what could be the best way to avoid this fees , some of the option that we thought about,
1) If they (cousin's company) open an bank account in USA and utilize this to transfer the money to indian bank account - Would they still need to pay US tax as money is being deposited into the US account?
2) If I utlize my bank account - I think in this scenarion I have to pay the US tax for whatever money the client is depositing into my account in order to make this legal transfer
3)If US client utilize remit2india, ICICI to transfer money which I highly doubt
I appriciate your responce on this.
If you are working on H1, #2 is not an option. You will be violating immigration laws by accepting payment from unauthorized sources by doing so.

I think it's a way to manage your own expectations - if EBn works out in a reasonable amount of time (varies from person to person), the US is a great place to be, otherwise, your own country is not all that bad. :D

Funds, There are more ideas than funds. For every new campaign, plan, we need funds. So it is an ever needed commodity. We can do a lot and lobby effectively, we just need more funds, plain and simple. Inspite of several hundreds contributing, it is not enough. Remember IV is a non-profit, so every penny is accounted for. People handling money (core IV) are sincere, honest hardworking people on work-visas, they have much to lose from not being accountable. And the most important thing is, please take a look at these hard-working IV CORE PEOPLE, please. Some of them have put thousands of dollars (I mean 5 and ten thousand) into this effort. I am not counting personal expenses, travelling to DC, lost work hours etc.
So your $100 at the bowling arena, or $50 at dinner or $35 bouquet wont get you much farther, but your recurring contribution to IV will.
I am a GC holder now and there are many people like me who are also would like to continue to contribute some money from time to time. I will get in touch with all my friends to contribute something even after GC to fight this noble cause.
Thanks

I can't agree more.
Many IV members post on this forum as if it some desi networking site.
Today IV is our banner for our Immigration woes. Maybe it is the only one. If anti-immigrants need to know what is happening in our world, they have a single source i.e. IV.
So whenever somebody posts something on this forum, please be reminded that this forum is a favorite among anti-immigrants too. Every post on this forum is indirectly addressing anti-immigrants.
Please be wise about what you post on this forum.
My 2 cents.

Hi,
My mom is going for the Tourist Visa to Chennai on 31st Mar, 2008. I am in US presently and my brother could able to arrange for the birth certificate. A big blunder, my mom name is blank in the birth certificate as they have prepared the BC keeping in mind my SSC (10th Certificate which doesn't have mom's name, ofcourse). Whether an affidavit from my mom + the birth certificate without my mom name in it, will solve my problem?
My name as per passport First Name: Afroze Last Name : Mohammed
As per the BC certificate Name: Mohd Afroze ( As per 10th Std spellings), whether it will create any problem?
Please suggest me 31st March is approaching .................
Thanks,
Afroze

They won't wait for your PD to be current to issue FP Notice.
Also, I don't think (my 2 cents) its advisable to travel before FP.. You never know when it will come and if you miss it... its considered as if you ignored it... They will issue one more FP notice before closing your AOS application...
So its needed to keep track of FP notice...

L1 A are managerial positions. they can apply in EB1 through employer. Hence it is possible to get GC in Green Cards.What he is saying is true.
L1 A are managerial positions
L1 B are like H1B except they worked for their parent company for a period of 1 year or more out of US
L2 's get EAD within 8-12 weeks and they can start working.
But unless he uses GC and get out of that company, he wont be earning near to minimum H1 B wages.
Satyam pays L1B only 41K. that's pathetic. Same with Wipro, Infosys, TCS , they are misers for L1 and H1B for employees.

I have sent letter twice. They forward it as it is to USCIS and send a reply back that it has been forwarded to USCIS for action. Then you receive a letter or call from USCIS that your case cannot be considered unless your PD becomes current.
How about you send the USCIS letter back to president again and tell him that this is not what you asked for. You already know PD is not current. The letter was for President to implement a fix A,B and C.

My 485 was apporved in July 2010 and have not recieved the card yet. I have contacted with couple of Service Request for non-delivery of permanent cards. First reply from USCIS was that my case was waiting for finger printing information from my local USICS was backlogged for appointments. So, I have told to wait for 60 days for either FP notice or physical green card. After 60 days, I have called them and another service request was created and the reply was completely irrelavant as they says my address was updated for my query about non-delivery of GC.
Is there any other escalation request that I can made for deliveriy the GC or the FP notice? whenever I called the USICS are creating the SR and have to wait for answers like above.
I have recieved the 485 approval notices (for both of us) on July itself but waiting for cards now. Are anyone with the same boat ? Or Is the unusual case?
Thanks

Just talked to an IO. My case was filed between July 3rd and 15th at Nebraska. I didn't get the receipt # , but the IO gave it to me over phone. Surprise surprise!! The case was transferred to california service center and my rcpt is a WAC number instead of a LIN number!!
For example, check: wac0725850164
That's why NSC is compliant, but people haven't received notices.
I hope this reduces some FUD. If you do not find this info useful, move on!!
I propose a scheme where people, when posting some information that's not speculative, prefix the subject with [NS] (Non-speculation). That will help in figuring out which threads to ignore.
What is the phone number you are calling USCIS on? Can they give you a receipt number without the checks being encashed if your I-140 was approved at the same service center?

I know this topic has been discussed in other threads as well and those threads got buried over the Period of time but this is getting beyond limit now - let me know if anyone has any good idea or if we can do anything together......
My PD is EB3 Mar 2005 and my 140 is applied in EB3 May 2007. at NSC (Nebraska) Its been 13 months and no signs of movement and no one is helping . Here what I did on a personal level and here is what i heard.
a) Contacted USCIS - they said contact employer/lawyer because they are the beneficiary.
b) Contacted Lawyer - they said 'Pls wait for some more time' & then ask employer.
c) Contacted Employer - they said that we can't push lawyers unless your case is passed 2 months from Processing Date update.
d) Contacted Local Congressman - Told them that the Processing Date update is a farce and USCIS (NSC) moves them back n forth just to save their Face. This is really unfair for a certain category of peoples. They took my case no. and inquired and then said that since you have a parallel H1B and a job - we would wait. If your existence in US comes on the Line then we will Jump in and help you. We are sorry but we can't really expedite unless a emergency comes.
Now tell me folks what other options we all have - NSC is just messing with EB3 140. Whatever is the workload this can not happen. Do we still have some options to work on (apart from sitting idle and pray) ?

Got following email today on my daughters case today. NSC July Filer. EB2 I Mar 2006.
All our cases show this status now.
Any idea what happens next?
Current Status: This case is now pending at the office to which it was transferred. The I485 APPLICATION TO REGISTER PERMANENT RESIDENCE OR TO ADJUST STATUS was transferred and is now pending standard processing at a USCIS office. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address. We process cases in the order we receive them. You can use our processing dates to estimate when this case will be done, counting from when USCIS received it. Follow the link below to check processing dates. You can also receive automatic e-mail updates as we process your case. To receive e-mail updates, follow the link below to register.
Where in the email does it say that the case has been transferred to a "LOCAL" USCIS office? From your information it appears that you are a July 2007 filer. Please check your 485 receipt number, if it starts with anything other than LIN, it means that although you mailed your application to the NSC, they sent your packets to either CSC or TSC for data entry. Now that your PD is current, it is quite possible that this office is now sending your packet back to NSC (which has jurisdiction) and is now pending there.
I say this, because, the same thing happened to me and many others whose 485 submissions were sent to difeerent offices for receipting and then those packets were sent back to NSC.
Peace.
