I am in the same boat. My wife 485 just got filed with me as dependent so I am holding off on sending mine in. I read that this is a very gray area, and at least fragomen claims that they have had cases in which both 485 applications were rejected because of this dual filing.
Check with a lawyer before you do anything.
Who or what is fragomen? Where can I read up more on this?

See a lawyer. He can find out the better job description for you.
He need to file LCA according to these job title.
Consult a reputed lawyer.
I'm on my OPT, basically student F1 visa.
The thing is the company where I work is ready to sponsor me. They only don't know which occupation to write for me in order to be eligible for H1B.
I'm working over there on administrative position and doing various accounting things.
Thanks

Hi All,
I am planning to paper file my wife's EAD renewal and AP for both me and my wife.
Questions:-
1. Can anyone who paper filed recently post information on filing EAD/AP
2. Since my wife filed for I-485 last year and paid $1010 fees,she falls under FEE WAIVER for both EAD and AP-I believe she can renew EAD/AP unlimited till she gets GC?
3. Can someone post what did they do additional for filing as FEE WAIVER?
Any detailed steps on paper filing with FEE WAIVER would be great.
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Regards,
everonh1

how do you know its run by funding generating from immi fees? any links?
Even so; not being a Vote bank is the reason we cannot do anyting here. Plus we are not united enough to generate enough funds or show enough economic impact (i.e. make our case) with lawmakers to get USCIS to clean up their act. IV is our best chance.

What happens when the laws of America clash with the laws of physics? In the Never-Never Land of Immigration, the natural laws of physics must defer to human-made law. This is the absurd answer of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Status (USCIS), the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) and the Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit (CA5) in its Sept. 29 decision, Bokhari v. Holder. The case involves the interpretation of a USCIS regulation, 8 C.F.R. � 274a.12(b)(20), which came into being because of the problems caused by bureaucratic delay. The regulation allows the automatic grant of work permission for up...

Your husband could have answered this question with his 8th year extension in progress. But here it is, once you start working for a company on H1 and they file ur GC starting with LC and if the process is pending for a year then u get automatic extensions going forward. With PERM the LC is getting approved more faster and you should have it within the year. As for H1 to wait until oct 2007 that will be for new H1's if u were already on a h1 before you can convert to one anytime not waiting until oct2007. :)

hi all,
I wrote a thread earlier saying I want to withdraw application for my H-1B stamping since it is stuck in admin processing and I will now travel using my AP. I called up the embassy asking them about the procedure and they told me to email at nivnd@state.gov and requesting withdrawing the case. Do I need to explain to them that I want to travel back and I will do it on AP . Also do I need to tell things like I am needed urgently back to join my work.
Please let me know,
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
we are take a cruise to Alaska this summer, on our way back the ship docks in Victoria, British Columbia for a day.
I am currently on AP, which I plan to use for re-entry into the US. Haven't renewed my H1 visa.
I understand that I need to apply for a Canadian Visitor's Visa.
there are a list of documents that I need to send to the consulate, including my passport and US Visa documents (ofcourse). Since my H1 visa is no longer valid, I was wondering if I need to send my AP document (or would a copy be sufficient)?? Do i need to prepare a separate application with supporting documents for my wife, or can I just include her in my application?
All this seems like to much of a hassle :mad:, considering that it's just a few hours in Canada itself, not to mention it's going to put me back by a couple of hundred $$ atleast.
Thanks in advance.

Over 500 Indian guest workers sue US company for human trafficking - The Times of India (http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/nri/news/Over-500-Indian-guest-workers-sue-US-company-for-human-trafficking/articleshow/7548222.cms)
HOUSTON: Lawyers for a group of Indian guest workers, trafficked to the US from India to work in shipyards after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, have sued an American company, Signal International, along with its co-conspirators and other entities for human trafficking and racketeering.
If class status is granted, the lawsuit could be the largest human trafficking case in US history, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has said in a statement.
Workers were allegedly lured here with dishonest assurances of becoming lawful permanent US residents, the statement said.
The ACLU joined a class action lawsuit brought on behalf of over 500 guest workers from India charging that the workers were trafficked into the US through the federal government's H-2B guest worker programme with dishonest assurances of becoming lawful permanent US residents and subjected to squalid living conditions, fraudulent payment practises, and threats of serious harm upon their arrival.
The complaint alleges that recruiting agents hired by the marine industry company Signal International held the guest workers' passports and visas, coerced them into paying extraordinary fees for recruitment, immigration processing and travel, and threatened the workers with serious legal and physical harm if they did not work under the Signal-restricted guest worker visa.
The complaint also alleges that once in the US, the men were required to live in Signal's guarded, over crowded labour camps, subjected to psychological abuse and defrauded out of adequate payment for their work.
The ACLU charges that the federal government has fallen short of its responsibility to protect the rights of guest workers in this country.
According to the lawsuit, the treatment of the workers violates the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act (TVPA) and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organisations Act (RICO).
In addition to the federal court litigation, in partnership with the ACLU, the workers have testified before the UN special rapporteur on the human rights of migrants, the UN special rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, and senior staff at the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
Signal, a marine and fabrication company with shipyards in Mississippi, Texas and Alabama, is a subcontractor for several major multinational companies.

WASHINGTON�"U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced
today that it has received a sufficient number of H-1B petitions to
reach the statutory cap for fiscal year (FY) 2011.� USCIS is notifying
the public that yesterday, Jan. 26, 2011, is the final receipt date
for new H-1B specialty occupation petitions requesting an employment
start date in FY2011.
The final receipt date is the date on which USCIS determines that it
has received enough cap-subject petitions to reach the limit of
65,000.� Properly filed cases will be considered received on the date
that USCIS physically receives the petition; not the date that the
petition was postmarked.� USCIS will reject cap-subject petitions for
new H-1B specialty occupation workers seeking an employment start date
in FY2011 that arrive after Jan. 26, 2011.
USCIS will apply a computer-generated random selection process to all
petitions that are subject to the cap and were received on Jan. 26,
2011. USCIS will use this process to select petitions needed to meet
the cap.� USCIS will reject all remaining cap-subject petitions not
randomly selected and will return the accompanying fee.
On Dec. 22, 2010, USCIS had also received more than 20,000 H-1B
petitions filed on behalf of persons exempt from the cap under the
‘advanced degree’ exemption. USCIS will continue to accept and process
petitions that are otherwise exempt from the cap.� Pursuant to the
Immigration and Nationality Act, petitions filed on behalf of current
H-1B workers who have been counted previously against the cap will not
be counted towards the congressionally-mandated FY2011 H-1B cap.
Accordingly, USCIS will continue to accept and process petitions filed
to:
extend the amount of time a current H-1B worker may remain in the U.S.;
change the terms of employment for current H-1B workers;
allow current H-1B workers to change employers; and
allow current H-1B workers to work concurrently in a second H-1B position.
U.S. businesses use the H-1B program to employ foreign workers in
specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise
in specialized fields such as scientists, engineers, or computer
programmers.
