Disclosure : I have already received 2 year EAD (thanks to IV). I have taken initiative to bootstrap the effort to help others who haven't been so fortunate. Since we are all in the same boat let us watch each others back for a change, instead of trying to backstab each other at every available opportunity.
This is NOT a yet another case tracker /EAD tracker thread. I don't believe that just tracking stuff will change anything. Be it EAD issue or any other, real world action is needed to solve it.
I have started this thread to guage the impact this issue has had on our community , how many members are affected, what actions have been taken by them, so that next steps can be taken. If a large number of members are impacted IV may decide to take up the issue.
Here are the options available to applicants
1) Call National Customer Service Center and create a Service Request (SR) to expedite the case
2) Fax and mail a letter to Service Center requesting to expedite the case due to possibility of job loss. Since the burden of proof is on the applicant - a letter from the company that EAD is necessary for continuation of job may help.
3) If steps 1 and 2 don't produce the results and CRs refuse to open SRs citing silly reasons, USCIS Ombudsman may be approached.
Here's how you can do that - http://www.dhs.gov/ximgtn/programs/editorial_0497.shtm
4) Approach your US Congressmen/women Representative/Senators. Every office has a different form for requesting Immigration help. They can open an inquiry with USCIS on your behalf.
Following the above (4) steps is no guarantee that your case will be resolved. But it is necessary that we follow all possible avenues before the issue needs to be escalated. We shouldn't feel embarassed at the question "Did you follow up with all these avenues available to you?". Our answer should be - "Yes. We did all that and it didn't help". And we should be able to produce the proof that we did do all the four steps mentioned above.
If you have done all the four or after you have exhausted all avenues, AND are willing to take it further - speak to the media, participate in possible IV campaign etc., post your details. We need members ready to go public with the issue if we want to succeed.
Right now, I have started this as an individual initiative. But I am sure that IV will get involved once it's proven that a large number are impacted and there are enough members to turn it into a campaign.

Why the bloody hell are you guys judging him for what he has done? He only asked for some advise regarding immigration implications of his situation.
I do not think any of you who is beating him down like this has any right in doing so. I bet that each and every one of you have done more mistakes than Mr.Sahaayam did. You just were never caught. You must have done more filthy things than 'shop lifting'. I'm sure you have all lusted after women, watched porn, frequented strip clubs and drank a lot of filth. Some of you might have slept with more than one woman.
Don't you think these are more filthy than shoplifting? Guys come on! I would not have any problem if one of you who has never committed any mistakes in life would point out other people's mistakes. But none of you are good enough.
If anyone wants to reply to my post, I would like the first person to do so to be the one who has never committed any mistakes in life so far! Others please get lost.
I watching this for sometime�I couldn�t resist from posting.
Is there any law stating you can not sleep with more than one woman and can not apply for GC� or anyone here who slept with more than one woman pleading guilty and asking for help?
Accidents do happen. But if you intentionally did something and trying to blame others without any shame� No one forced him to steal at gun point or he was not starving or life or death situation here. There is no regret or remorse from him for what he has done. His only point is others are lucky and not getting caught but only he is. I guess that�s what infuriating every one here.
Why dont tell the same thing to the cops and jury... Let him who is without sin cast the first stone

Yes but in Canada you will breathe clean air and drink clean water. You will have electricity 24 hrs a day and water 24 hrs a day. You wont find trash on the street and you wont be considered second class citizen if you arent SC/ST/OBC due to reservations. You woint have to give "donations" to get your kid admitted to Class 1. You wont face a system where a simple court case drags to 50 yrs or a case where doctor will not treat if before police does a "Panchnama" if you had an accident. You wont have to bribe everyone from minucipality to police to start a business.
I have driven in and around Toronto for a couple of hours and did not find it much better than driving in Trivandrum/Cochin.
Other points, I can only talk relating to the US and here we go.
"you will breathe clean air and drink clean water." - The air in the US is as polluted as that in India as attested by the rising level of Asthma and the repeated Code Red warnings during summer time. Almost same story for water. About a year back, the DC govt. even admitted that the water supplied by them contains too much bad stuff.
"You wont find trash on the street" - only when you live in a decent community. Just walk around half an hour around NorthEast DC and hope you will change your mind. Do not attempt to walk around the downtown of any US city after 6 PM. We don't want to loose any of the IV members.
"you wont be considered second class citizen if you arent SC/ST/OBC due to reservations." - Who is considered second class citizens is a subject unto itself. But if you are complaining about reservations, you have never heard of affirmative action.
"You woint have to give "donations" to get your kid admitted to Class 1." - Agreed public schools are free, just like they are free in India. If you want your kid to study in a private school, please pay $5000 per year.
"You wont face a system where a simple court case drags to 50 yrs" - I had prefer a case dragging for 50 years or more against a wrong court decision such as we saw during the 2000 US presidential election.
"a case where doctor will not treat if before police does a "Panchnama" if you had an accident" - I think the situation in India has now changed regarding hospitals refucing to treat people due to police case and such. Now, all hospitals (private hospitals included) are required to treat traffic accident victims asap.
I am not trying to say, India is paradise. We have lots of crap going around. Many things still stink, but so is the situation in many "great" countries.
Cheers,

Big corporations do a very good job in accommodating minorities and racial diversity. We had number of special classes to understand Indian culture when we started outsourcing. Some companies have diversity councils and they meet regularly to discuss issues or topics of interest.
I agree with some one's suggestion here that cosmopolitan cities are better than interior places where they don't see many people from other countries.
Many of my colleagues like Indian food but I will be selective in what I eat at my desk. As much as I like it, I Don't bring spicy Biryani to work.

If the suspense is killing anyone, like it was to me; its easy to call the USCIS #, and ask the cust service person if the application has been pre-adjudicated. He/She will ask for SRC/LIN # again, and tell you yes/No and date of pre-adjudication.
If the first officer does not help, call another, and the next one will.

i am in the 3.a. situation. what does part time mean? can you really be working part time when you are a CEO, CFO, COO, CMO of a company? not that i am raising this questions... I want to continue to be in the 3.a. situation, but can the IO ask these questions? if i make revenue of $20000 (twenty thou) and profit of $2000 a year will that be considered enough for IO to think that my intention is to switch to my company after green card and hence no intention of continuing permanent employment? or is that number higher (or lower)...
I want to become a believer in your 3.a. statement... please let me know what you think.
From what I can gather, from the immigration perspective:
1. If you are on H1 - You can technically start a business but since you cannot "work" towards it, in practice it's almost impossible
2. If you are on H1 and have an EAD - You can start a business. But if you use your EAD, you are no longer on H1. (There are contradicting views on using EAD for PT while still maintaining H1. For now, this is a grey area)
3. If you are on EAD -
a. If you plan to work on your business on a part time basis and stay with your sponsored job full time, I don't see a problem with this.
b. If you plan to work on your business full time, you might have an issue with a RFE at the I-485 stage as you would have used AC21 for self employment (Some people say this is okay, but it depends on your risk taking ability)
Thoughts?

So does this mean I am stuck with Company A till I get Garbage Can I mean GC ?
You are not alone in this situation...I switched couple months back while I am on 11th yr
H1B. I was with same employer for 8 yrs and applied for 140/485 but both got denied as attorney made a mistake in labor and 140 stating that I will be working only from my employers chicago office and eventually my employer closed chicago office before my 140approval and USCIS raised RFE for that and denied stating that my application is no longer eligible due to closure of office....So I hired an new attorney and filed appeal. Meanwhile I started all over again with another employer and got new labor/140 approved and switched recently. Now I am on 11'th yr H1B.
Now to answer ur question on what if previous employer revokes your approved 140, it will not effect and you can still retain and port the PD to the new employer at the time of filing a new 140 with another employer....what that means is that you can still switch the employers and still retain ur PD

We should this opportunity to get the USINPAC to join our fight for timely immigration benefits. Now that IV is an established voice for the immigrant community, hopefull USINPAC will be ready accept IV and join the us.
GIDOC, Again, don't do this mistake. Talk to people who know this org before suggesting anything like this. usinpac guys had all the time in the world to work on this issue. But all that are bust doing is - doing photo-ops with lawmakers. HELLOOOOO!!!! Paid employees out there – are you listening???? :mad:
If you want IV to really do something, please don't even think of..... it will be just a huge mistake....:mad:
IV core,
Please do not even think of even trying this idea. These guys are going to corrupt this org as well. PLEASE PLEASE talk to other people to find about the reality of these con-artist.

I am just wondering why in the world has someone done this stupid things... and suffer like this.
sometimes life gives you lemons.
sometimes people do miss billing certain items (Ex: could have forgot to put it on the counter, etc) and get caught.
Shoplifting is the number one crime in stores and stores suffer billions of dollars losses onthese. Stores do prosecute these without any leniency. They cannot differentiate between an misunderstanding/accident with an intentional one.
This is not like india, where the owner of store is most interested in making you pay for that item or get it back if you are caught.

Sorry I didn't mention the country. Mine is EB2 India PD 09/2003
Your case is eligible the chances are high that you'll get it, if dates remain current. And as folks have mentioned, 180 days rule applies. Your infopass will tell you clearly what's happening to your NC but that is immaterial.
I realized your original question was about FP and its expiry and not about NC. So I withdrew my original post to remind you of the 180 day rule which says where the application is otherwise approvable and the FBI name check request has been pending for more than 180 days, the adjudicator shall approve the I-485 and proceed with card issuance.
Will you send me a PM the day you get a notification that 485 is approved? I guess now I am getting impatient, despite being fully aware of a possibility of dates retrogressing in the next bulletin.

I work for Fortune 100 company and we are celebrating Diwali on Friday. There are flyers on all the corners and are expecting more than 500 co-workers for pot-luck lunch. And the best part, organizer and main activists are non-Indian. So its just another festival in the mix that everybody is looking to enjoy. This is our first gathering followed by 4-5 more before end of the year.
Yes, American society is a cosmopolitian society and every culture is respected. Thats why it is called a melting pot.
The only way we can achieve unity is through social greets and making everyone get a feeling of togetherness.
