Everything is done only for illegals now a days... why should the politicians do anything for EB immigration for legally tax paying immigrants ?
I don't know who is worse the democrats or the republicans ...
Democratic party is actually horrible when it come to skilled imigrants. In the past the GOP have done for skilled folks like AC21 ets. DNC is for Unions (who oppose the H1B/EB people) and illegals (who like to keep us hostage for amnesty bills).

Please accept my humble and sincere "Shame on You" compliment, if you fit all of the following:
Have IV ID OR visit IV as guest.
Been visiting IV forums for 1+ month.
Have not contributed a single penny to IV. [MOST IMPORTANT]
Will benefit (and/or ARE BENEFITTING) from IV.
I wonder how you can live with yourself benefiting from the sweat of others.
Please help yourself by contributing asap.

But isn't AC21 for a different position irrespective of whether you use it in the same company or different company. Technically you are suppose to be in same occupation till you get your green card Which is problem for me because i am trying to use the benefits obtained (EAD and AP) from my EB3 position and being promoted to a EB2 position while using the EAD and AP of my EB3 application

My AP is expiring in Feb 25, 2009. I have some question regarding the renewal of my AP. When I came back this time afterthe vacation, at the airport they stamp my ap saying that it's expiring One June 30, 2009. what does that mean?
When should i have to renew my AP?
How long does it going to take?
Can i do it by myself as my lawyer is charing $1000 every time i'm using her (she charged me legal fee $1000 for my EAD renewal)?
When i apply for the Ap renewal does it have anythign to do with the AP stamping saying expires: june 30, 2009?
Your answer is always appreciated
Thanks Ahead

Special to CNN
Editor's note: Ruben Navarrette Jr. is a nationally syndicated columnist and a regular contributor to CNN.com. Read his column here.
Ruben Navarrette Jr. asks why the nation's chief multitasker can't take time for immigration reform.
SAN DIEGO, California (CNN) -- President Obama has placed the immigration reform community at the back of the bus.
This same president who insists the country can't wait to fix what he calls a broken health care system tells reformers to wait for him to get around to fixing what they consider to be an equally broken immigration system.
The same president who tried to juggle a half dozen major policy initiatives in his first few months in office now seems unsure of his ability to -- as he told Univision's Jorge Ramos in an interview last weekend -- "solve every problem at once."
And the same president who seems to understand that the longer he waits to accomplish health care reform, the more difficult it will be to get, doesn't seem to understand the same is true with immigration reform.
The political math for both kinds of reform only gets more difficult if Democrats lose seats in the House and Senate in next year's midterm elections, as is expected to happen.
During a recent speech to a black-tie gala for the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, Obama again promised action on immigration -- at some point. But he didn't give a timetable.
Obama and his advisers decided to attack health care reform before immigration reform. That obviously was a mistake.
'Latino in America'
The Latino population is set to nearly triple by 2050. This October, Soledad O'Brien journeys into the homes and hearts of a group destined to change the U.S. Witness the evolution of a country as Latinos change America and America changes Latinos.

One thing that has thrown a wrench into the prospects for health care reform is the Joe Wilsonian concern that illegal immigrants might get free health care as a result of the reform process. Had that issue been addressed beforehand by giving illegal immigrants a path to earned legalization, that controversy might have been defused. Now Obama might walk away with nothing.
Be that as it may, it's clear that immigration reform just isn't a top priority for this administration.
The White House may view this as a niche issue, one with limited impact on any group other than Latinos. If so, that shows how little they know.
Business groups, law enforcement, border security advocates, organized labor, high-tech firms, university educators and others are all clamoring for immigration reform. For the record, Latinos care about the same issues the president seems to care about -- the economy, education and health care. But they also care about immigration because they see it as a test of political courage.
They're well-aware of the resistance out there to giving illegal immigrants a path to earned legalization, and so they're drawn to elected officials who are willing to brave those winds in order to do the right thing.
Does that include Obama? At this point, who knows? Time flies when a president is stalling.
It was just several months ago that White House officials were promising that Obama would address immigration reform before the end of the year. Now that timeline seems to have been pushed back to the beginning of 2010. And with midterm elections next November, we can expect Congress to invest -- at most -- five or six months on this issue.

For all intents and purposes, the curtain closes when Congress adjourns for summer recess next year, since members will spend most of the fall campaigning for re-election.
Given all that, immigration reform could easily lapse into Obama's second term, if there is a second term. For now, the president's reluctance to approach the issue in a meaningful way that goes beyond assurances to advocacy groups and promises to Hispanic audiences seems to be prompting members of Congress to take the reins.
Both Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-New York, and Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Illinois, have promised to unveil immigration reform proposals in the coming weeks.
Schumer is already behind schedule, since he said he would come up with something by Labor Day. Still, this is all a notable departure from what happened under President Bush, where it was the White House that tried to lead Congress toward immigration reform.
Now it's the other way around. Call that what you want. But it's not leadership on an issue that demands nothing less.

No worries. I have travelled through Frankfort with AP and had no issues. In fact, an officer did ask me for my US visa and i showed him the AP document. Seems to me that frankfort officials do understand the AP document.

Both the H1b have the same president's name and address during the application. is that enough. As I left that company and have no good terms with the last company anymore I don't know what kind of proof I can get. Also during the H1b application for Company A I receive some paper from the compnay that mentioned that the payroll of Company B is processed by Company A. All my W2's are from company A even i was working for company B.
Please advice
You have to somehow prove to USCIS that company A and C are subsidiaries and mere mentioning that they have been owned by the same person may not fly. You need some kind of proof on paper.
This is just one suggestion , ofcourse you have to talk to a lawyer before doing anything.

How come h1 transfer gives me the solution?
do you mean to say goto any employer whoever gets job?
Start New GC process again with new employer. And since your old 140 is approved port your PD when when you file new 140 with new employer.

Hi I'm currently working as a strategist in an ad agency on OPT, which expires in June this year. My H1B application was denied because my major in college was French and the lawyer obviously wasn't able to establish the connection between my major and my work (although in my defense, my college was a liberal arts college, there weren't any specialized majors such as advertising, communications, etc. It's all about cultivating critical thinking, analytical skills, communication skill, which are all essential to working in advertising). So my question is, if in the future I want to come back to the US on an H1B visa, would that be possible? Is this issue with my major going to haunt me for at least 12 years (as in 3 years of working experience equal 1 year of college education)? Given that I do want to stay in the advertising industry, what are my options to solve this issue? Would getting an MBA with a marketing focus solve this?
PS: I understand another way to come back to the US by employment is via L1 visa. However, the prerequisite would be that I was already working in that company's overseas office, correct? So, if I received an offer from a company in the US without having worked in one of its overseas branch, I would still have to apply an H1B, correct?
Thank you very much!

Here is my situation
Studied in US on F1 and directly started working for company A from 2002. Got a H1 stamp when out of country in 2003.
Since then moved to company B (in 2005) and H1 visa is now on the second three year term (valid till 2008) . Am on the verge of moving to company C. Will be out of the country all of april and had a few questions
1) Do I need to have stamp on my passport when I switch between F1 and H1only or do I need the stamp even if I have switched firms since the last time I got my passport stamped
2) What happens if I get the stamp say on H1 on 1st April (while on payroll of company B), quit company B (while outside US) and join company C and then return to US in last week of April without getting another stamp. Will I face any issues when reentering USA (given that the stamp is for company B even though I don't work for it anymore) or do I need the accurate stamp when coming to USA?
Your help will be deeply appreciated
Thanks

I found this link and it is mentioned that there are two type of appointment. I got the second type.
http://www.immigrationlinks.com/news/news418.htm
I was wondering if the ASC asks to reschedule instead of doing a walk-in again , as my search tells me that Boston ASC most likely will ask to reschedule. Can we just go to another nearest ASC (Rhode Island) or Manchester, NH which allows walk-in after the finger heals instead of waiting for the rescheduled appointment notice to be received from the original ASC. My wife has made plans to go visit her parents in next 2 weeks and we did not anticipate that such a thing would happen.

USCIS is fishing form I485 application pool, in approvable cases, 2006 cases are nearest and an easy catch.
the more readily reachable boxes are filled with later PDs with a few 2004-5 PDs. The older PD applications are in boxes in storage area. Sounds brutal to those with earlier PDs, but no other rational explanation is forthcoming. This will all work out OK, if they have an accurate estimate of both the pending cases and available GC numbers.
To top it all there is total disconnect between TSC and NSC.
