And even if it pass the mark-up tomorrow, there's a long winding road ahead before it becomes a law.
Only miracle can make this happen.

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.

I have 4 years degree with Masters. However, if you made through EB3 you should be able to get through EB2. Nevertheless, it is worth a try as gains are large. I understand there is a risk (no risk no gain).
I have just started the process and my labor is in process. I am filing with my current employer who filed my EB3 case. Green card is for future job so they are taking me for higher position say manger. My lawyer is making sure there is some kind of sync up with Eb3 labor and H1B application. They should be supporting the present labor application.
Your employer need to be supportive and should be willing to work with you that help a lot. They have added some managerial stuff and kind of technical lead. I have not used my experience with present employer.
To best of my knowledge, there is no impact to eb3 case.
Hope this help.

In central NJ, I called over 9 Doctors and only two of them had an appointment before July 1st -2nd week.
One is Dr. Neil M.S. Estrella in Clark, NJ. Appointment was available for Monday June 18th. But the fees for the exam plus vaccines is $430. The second one is Dr. Marcel Stern in Piscataway, NJ 08854. Appoitnment was available for Thursday June 21st. The fees was more reasonable at $350.
If you're in Central NJ, Hurry, Hurry Hurry.
P.S - If some of you get other appoitnments in NJ, post here so that others will know and not waste time calling other doctors.
To look for doctors in your area, go here :
https://egov.uscis.gov/crisgwi/go?action=offices.type&OfficeLocator.office_type=CIV
You can just walkin to Dr Stern office. Even if you have an appointment with them, you may have to wait 0.5-1.5 hours depending on the time you go. If you go on weekend or weekdays after 5 you may have to wait longer but afternoon should be faster. And there fee may be more than $350 if you need to get shots and xray. Hope this help.
If you call them recp. will tell that appt is required but actually it is just walk-in and you may not get any preference ver people who walked-in.

Hi Gurus,
I have efiled for my wife's EAD/AP renewal. When I finally submitted, the total payment asked was only $645( 340 for EAD and 305 for AP). But, there is a note stating the following:
"The biometric fee is $80 for applicants ages 14 through 79 who request a Refugee Travel Document or Re-Entry Permit, unless the applicant resides outside the United States at the time of filing their form."
How am I supposed to send this? I was not asked to pay this amount during my efiling of the AP/EAD concurrent filing.
How am I supposed to send this? Can I send it as a separate check for $80 only for the biometric fee( because I had already paid for the EAD/AP using my credit card)
Please advise.
Also, during the AP filing, I got this:
"On a separate piece of paper, please explain how you would qualify for an Advance Parole and what circumstances warrant issuance of Advance Parole. Include copies of any documents you wish considered. (See instructions.) "
What an I supposed write in the document that I am going to send to USCIS?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance,

I just wanted to confirm this is possible and if somebody has any experience in doing this.
In the thread you should find the process of contacing your local USCIS office to have your I-94 updated.

My knowledge in this issue is limited, but looking at above posts, I have two things to tell you:
1. It may be possible to convert to EB2, clearly it is not easy and it takes time. EB3 clearly has a longer wait than EB2, but the conversion process takes time as well (even if everything is well in line, you are looking at 1.5-2 yrs at least).
2. Whether you convert to EB2 or not, chances are, you will be still in line till immigration reform comes and kicks in. Please participate in all efforts to make sure that there are some good provisions for legal immigrants in immigration reform. If all of our efforts work, you surely will get your greencard soon, whether you convert to EB2 or not.
Good Luck.

According to my attorney 2 things
1. You just need the receipts to travel not the Ap approval perse.
LINKS please
2. If your H1B petition is still valid, you are OK, if you notice the botton part of your petition is your original I94, so you are covered with that.
Petition does not help if you don't have a visa and one wants to travel, Visa is for entry and I94 is for staying in country
3. according to my attorney CIS will take 45 days for the RD to deliver the I797 notice to you home, so if you applied the last days of July, by the 3rd week of September you will receive the I797 notice.
As note my attorney was president of the AILA last year and her husband work in the CIS, so some how the info is trustable.
Good Luck

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 together out loud. So I expected the crowd in this rally to sing as well. But it was all silence. I felt really embarrassed.
Unfortunately no one knew the lyrics - this is an eye opener to all - one must lknow at the least star spangled banner if he/she wants a GC and finally become a citizen

Cobra,
Two years ago, I got a 221g.
I have a MS degree in EE in US and working in the same field. After 4 years on the job, I got a 221g during my 2nd H1B stamping interview.
The wait was painful and the stress was unbearable. After submitting the documents, it took 28 days for my application to be approved. To this date, I do not know what triggered a review of my case.
As long as your documents are legitimate, you have nothing to be afraid about. Your Visa will be granted after somebody from the relevant department reviews your case. Most cases are processed within 30 days after going into review.
This is collateral damage that we suffer as a result of massive H1B fraud perpetrated in South India. They randomly select a few applications to detect and investigate fraud. If the case is legitimate, they approve it. Otherwise, they reject it.
Keep your courage and spend time with your family. Most legitimate employers do not penalize employees who encounter such issues.
Good luck,
Nag

Please don't travel thru countries that impose this ridiculous transit Visa requirement on individuals, especially from India.
I stopped traveling through countries that impose transit visa; Eventually, transit visa requirement will be lifted, if no one flies.

I just called the office of a couple of senior members of the CHC. It takes a few minutes guys and it does make a difference. You only realize that after you call. Find out for yourselves.
They took down my name and location. If you are in the congressmans district then you definitely MUST call, it DEFINITELY has an impact as your call has five times the impact. Sometimes the aides will actually get into a conversation with you and then you, we and IV get to shine. Our cause is just, our request is least controversial and if we can persuade a few minds we stand a reasonable chance. Let me share with you an example.
The rep. from Congressman Guttierez office told me they were not blocking this bill, then I suggested that Congressman Guttierez is one of the leaders in congress on this topic and him taking an active lead in supporting these bills will convince a lot of other congressmen, so I am looking to him to lead on this. I told her that all immigration issues has been stalled in congress for over 3 yrs now and he needs to take the lead in getting the ball rolling again. I suggested that this will help build a coalition when CIR bill with most of the employment based provisions are discussed. However a movement on bills such as this will allow others to feel something can be done on this issue, right now there is paralysis. She agreed to speak with him on this and once again reiterated Rep. Guttierez is not blocking the Lofgren bills. I thanked her and asked if she could ask him to consider co-sponsoring the bills. She agreed to pass on the message.

Yes. The malicious code did not download any virus or inject any virus in anyone's system. All it did was to redirect the user via a popup to a malicious website. Antivirus scanners pick this up as a virus alert, but it is not. It is more of an annoyance than a virus attack.
I honestly cannot vouch for the millions of hackers and script kiddies out there that this won't happen but use a good Anti-virus scanner especially if you have kids at home.
