let's compile a list of famous immigrants like Albert Einstien, Henry Kissinger, Madalene Albright et al and change the face of what constitutes a legal immigrant. We need stories of doctors, scientists, engineers (the success of NASA) who were immigrants and benefited this country. That way we can fight the image of the immigrant as a low wage seeking will work for food kind of a worker being created by anti immigrants. Let Lou Dobbs fight history and deny it.

I am getting ready to file I-485. Is it mandatory to apply I-131(EAD) and I-765 (AP)? I got 3yr extension which is valid till 2009 and i am not planning to use EAD anytime soon.
What if i just apply for I-485 in the beginning and apply for EAD or AP whenever there's need? Please let me know.
Thanks
You can apply EAD/AP whenever you want to, provided you have filed I485. It need not be exactly at the time the I485 is filed.

Well, whether a merchandise can be returned after using, depands on the nature of the merchandise and the level of customer service provided by the seller.
If you are buying a TV or a home theater, you don't know if it is functioning properly until you use it. And returning it within stipulated "return period" is not only legal but also ethical.
Some high-end sellers will even guarantee customer satisfaction by allowing a return any time, yes any time if the customer is not fully satisfied with their product. There is nothing unethical about this. That is why these high-end stores charge you a premium in the first place.
Not allowing return of merchandise reflects the low level of customer service we used to get back home. Obviously that level of service expectaion has been engrained in us so much that we believe returning used merchandise, even when the customer is not satisfied, is unethical.
If its not working, its called 'Defective'. Otherwise its called unethical. Understand the difference.

I couldn't believe. Got CPO and Welcoming New Resident emails for me and my son after 10 years.
All Glory and Praise to my Lord Jesus Christ.
Got the Text message on my mobile on Thursday Oct 22, at 7:45 pm. But didn't see it until 23rd morning at 9:00 am. Went to church on Thursday morning, and Friday morning, and prayed ardently. Came out of the church, and just opened my cell phone, and saw the text message from uscis saying "Your case # is updated. check 'My case status' on USCIS Home Page (http://www.uscis.gov)... ".
Got the email also on Thursday evening, but saw only on Friday morning.
Mine is at TSC, spouse's moved to local USCIS a few months back, for an interview.
Went to local uscis at 3:35, but it was closed. Hope my spouse's case also approved soon by the end of this week.
Thanks a bunch to IV, will continue to give my support to IV.

I have two approved I-140 (NIW/TSC 06/2006 and EB1A/NSC 07/2009) and a
pending I-485/TSC from 2007. I went infopass two weeks ago, and was told
that my I-485 was pre-adjudicated and assigned to IO on 08/2009. The
infopass officer kindly sent an e-mail to my IO requesting for update.
Yesterday, I received a letter saying "We are actively processing this case.
However, we have to perform additional review on this case and this has
caused a longer processing time. If you do not receive a decision or other
notice of action from us within 6 months of this letter, please call
customer service at the number provided below."
Does anyone received a similar letter? Is it just some letter or some problem
with my case. I have been in this country for 11 years, used up all 6 years
of H1b, renewed EAD three times, and tried service request, called IO, wrote
to Senators/first lady. Not sure what else I can do...

I doubt the USCIS has any rules regarding processing queue. Some people are waiting 10+ years, others receive approvals in 2 months.
My understanding on this is - after I-485 uscis works on RD and if your FP/NC is cleared PD is looked at for preference in each category but uscis won't wait guy stuck in nc for 10 yr to make way for your gc. If you are lucky you may get it sooner than you expect

No. Not in May, but sometimes during 2011 the chances that Jan 2007 will be current is extremely good. Good luck.

Yeah, I agree, but there is no other alternative.
Both cases are genuine, not involving any labor substitution, so we can only hope that they are not rejected.
We cannot file both together, becoz if one is entered in the system before the other, the second will get automatically rejected.

I do not know how many times this topic was discussed accorss various boards. Because of INA and amended provision in Ac21 act, all the unused visas from Eb1 goes to EB2 and if anything leftover in Eb2 goes to EB3. This is the law. This hurts badly EB3, as demand in EB2 is so high to consume the all the avialable Eb2 numbers. Moreover, country quota is not applied in each employment based preferece catagories seperatly /exclusivly, if the demand in each catagory is less than the supply. So, most of EB2 numbers consumed by India and China as worldwide demand for EB2 is very less than supply. There is no confussion in it. This is the law. Though it is unfair to very old EB3 folks (in their view) One cannot do anything to change it. unless congress rips of the AC21 provission by passing new law.
It is difficult to accept that a EB3 guy in 2001 pd stll waiting and 2006 guy gets gc. But this is what law is, USCIS/DOS can't do anything. If we talk unfairness, there are tons in US immigration. For example, a nobal prize winner gets GC in EB1 catagory has to wait 5 years to become citizen. However, if a stripper marries a US citizen has to wait only 3 years to become a citizen and there is no numarical limitations for a spouse of US citizen become LPR. How fare it is?...

I agree. Its the channel Osama uses anyways. Lou Dog (sp?? CNN smart Ass) will go bananas.
Any thoughts?
No disrespect to Al-Jazeera. But putting our story on that channel is not a good idea. People view anything on it with lot of suspicion, and Fox news interprets everybody Al-Jazeera sympathizes with as you know what.
Don't come after me for saying this, its not my opinion. But general opinion that I have observed from people who are not well informed(read majority of people). Lets focus on the main stream media in US, outside coverage is not that significant anyway.

That's good news APB.
I guess it may either be the SR that I opened for my wife or the letter I wrote to Napolitano...my wife got a call from a CSR from DC and she told that her case is pending because of the Biometrics, she said she is issuing new biometrics...the speaker phone was on...and I interjected...how come I got approved w/o the Biometrics...she was clueless...I told her how many times can Biometrics notice be issued...my attorney called TSC on 10th of Sept and that time a notice was issued which we never received and then again two weeks later someone else issued another notice.....then someone else told that Biom is fine it just needs uploading and it has been two weeks since then the only thing that is happening is the Visas getting used up .....I said what's the point of FP/Biom if visas are no longer available which surely will be the case in 3 weeks....
In any case didn't expect a phone call from them so was surprised.

I dont understand why people even bother to fly through BA. As soon as they say "transit visa" which means additional hassle..bye bye BA. We get strained enough with this 35 hour flights..we dont need any more headaches..they have a right to impose rules.(based on what's happening in their country)..and we have our right to choose..I would rather spend an extra couple of hours and fly through Singapore airlines, hassle free.

I read in another forum that US consulate in Canada is actually asking to fill out some PIMS form available on their website. Also you need to fax your documents 1 week prior to your appointment.
Can anyone confirm this? Man, I wish this could be the case in India also. :confused:
in mumbai, also you need to enter the details of petition online (petition number, expiry date and petitioner name) while booking appointment.. and you need to submit all documents before 5 working days.. (in some cases they mention 3 working days)

Talking about travel experience, here is one I had at the CDG Airport in Paris..
I was flying back this Dec 31st, 2007 from Dubai and had a 5 hour layover at CDG. I had to go to a different terminal from the one I landed in... and that meant going through security check again at the new terminal.
I placed by carry on backpack on the x ray machine and I was waiting for my bag to at least start moving before I walked through the metal detector. While the ICTS (pvt company) security agent on the othe side signalled me to walk through, i said (in English) that I would like to wait till the bags get into the X-ray machine..
This did not sit well with this ICTS Agent.. He walked past the metal detector and proceeded to shove and push me past the metal detector.. (I forgot to mention that I had knee surgery ~ 20 days back to fix an ACL injury)
I could not believe that I was shoved past a metal detector.. I said to the ICTS agent that he had no right to shove me and I asked to speak to his supervisor.. This made this so called agent more angry and he started to threaten me repeatening "you want to report me"!! His immediate supervisor said that since this was a security issue nothing could be done.. Not willing to give up, I asked to speak the head agent there.. He was a bit more helpful.. he gave me a website and a mailing address where I can write to..(with the details of which gate and what time I experienced this)..
I kept repeating to every supervisor that I did the right thing and their agent did the wrong thing by shoving me..
I was not satisfied with just some addresses and website for the terrible way I was treated. After a while of sitting at the terminal, I went back and I asked that I wanted to file a Police case against the agent. Initially, the agents said once you are in the terminal, you cannot get out.. I spoke to the head agent again who let me get out and gave me directions to the Police booth in the airport.
At the police station, I stood around with Visa violaters for a while.. Eventually, they were able to find someone who spoke halting English.. Since I was not physically hurt, I could not file a Police case against the agent. What I was able to file was something like an incident report (but unfortunately no tracking #)
This was an interesting first hand experience in overt racism.. being treated like crap because the agent thought he could get away with doing that to a South Asian looking person..
I have since written to
- ICTS France, Roissy Pole le Dome, 1 rue de la haye, 95000 Roussy CDG Paris, France
- Air France
- e-mailed ADPWEB [ADPWEB@adp.fr]
- Nicholas Sarkozy
and a few others..
I am not going to let this ICTS Agent treat people like crap.. After he saw that I went out to put a police case, he came to talk to me at the terminal saying that I can shove him if I want and a lot of other excuses.. I kept repeating my mantra " I did the right thing. You did the wrong thing. You cannot force me to do the wrong thing.."
I will keep writing to all the parties until I hear back..
and Air France, even though I liked your service at the airplane, I am not flying through CDG ever again..
