Hi All,
Q1) I would like to take a US consulate appointment for visitor's visa for my father. We are from southern Andhra Pradesh and Chennai consulate is convenient for us. Since Hyderabad has US consulate, does whole of Andhra come under HYD consulate jurisdiction? or can we take appointment in Chennai Consulate? Could you please let me know? My father is going for visa for the first time.
Q2) If visitor passport is expiring in next eight months and if the visitor is residing in US, is it possible to renew the passport here? Or the person has to go back to India and renew the passport there. I would just like to help my parents with the paper work and get it done if possible when they are here.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks.

I am going to file application for renewal of EAD of my spouse.She was on H-4 when she came to USA and she got EAD last year. She will start working from Aug 08. She has not used her EAD till now but went to India on AP.
1.What is manner of last entry and the current immigration status for her? Is it Parolee or H4 status in both cases?
2.I have filed I-485 after July 2007. Can I E-file? As I read somewhere on forum that On or after July 30, 2007, applications may not be electronically filed and must be submitted to a Service Center via regular mail or courier service.
Thank you.
Here is the update.
1. If your wife used AP @ POE then Parolee ( AOS - Pending)
2. You can e file but you have to go for FP.
Thanks.

Hi,
I want to apply for Green Card in EB2 Category through my employee. But I already have a green card in process via my spouse's employee in EB3 Category.
1. So will I be able to get the priority date of the green card process which is in EB3 Category?
2. Can I add my spouse in my EB2 visa process?
3. What are risks involved, if any?
Many Thanks

When my attorney filed the I-485 last month, he mentioned the correct name and the mispelled name in the brackets.
Any comments from senior members will be helpful.
Hello Friends,
I think many Indians might have faced this issue.We can spell same Indian name in several ways in English.
I have one friend who is ready to file I -485.
He found following issues with Birth certificate. Does USCIS rejects or REF I-485 for following reason ?
1) His mother�s name spelled differently in his Birth Certificate. (One letter is missing)
2) His wife's Birth Affidavit has different spelling for Father�s name. (One letter is different)
3) Is first name enought in Birth Certificate or it needs full name ?
Keep on good work of helping each other.

Hi guys,
I am in real need of suggestions for attorneys in the area. I am in PA, and need a good attorney (since mine just dropped off the face of the earth). Don't really care where he/she is, but I want to go with someone that it's been suggested by other immigrants, rather than other attys.
Please reply with suggestions. I appreciate it.
Thanks.

Hello,
I needed your advise whether i have a case to file an APPEAL to USCIS granting me 1 yr H1 extension (beyond 6th Yr) instead of 3 yr extension.?
Recently my 7th yr extension was approved for 1 year in Jul'09 with petition valid date till june'09 (date in the past) . At the time of filling the 7th yr extension, my I140 was not approved but during the processing of my h1 extension my I140 got approved and i had sent the approval copy along with an RFE i recieved in May'09.
Let me give my case background in details.
* LC applied in oct'07
* I-140 applied in May'08 after LC approval
* 6th yr on H1 ended in June 08
* had to return India since my LC < 1 yr and I-140 was not approved
* Employer based on an attorney's advise suggested to apply my 7th yr extension from India once my LC is one yr old (i.e. Oct'08)
� Mar09- applied 7th yr extension based on Approved LC (> 1 yr old ) and applied I-140
� Apr09- I-140 approved
� May09 � Received RFE on H1 extension, replied along with a copy of Approved I-140 hoping to get 3 yrs extension
� Jul09 � Received approval on H1X extension for 1 year with petition valid till Jun'09 (1 yr extension)
Appreciate your advise on the same.
Thanks,
Bikash

Here is copy of email from ALIPAC.
Can we try SKIL bill.
Friends of ALIPAC, The usual suspects like Lindsay Graham, Ted Kennedy, and John Kyl are pushing to add the Dream Act and other illegal alien amnesty language to unrelated bills on the Senate floor TONIGHT! We have reports of attempts to attach these measures to the war funding bill and the Homeland Security funding bill. We need everyone lighting up the DC phone lines and voice mails TONIGHT and THURSDAY, with an urgent message. "Senator _______, do NOT allow any immigration legislation to be added to other bills! We are watching and these measures have already been defeated and should not be placed into law in sneaky ways! No Dream Act! No AgJobs Amnesty Bill! Enforce our existing laws and stop Graham, Kyl, and Kennedy from sneaking Amnesty into law!" Here is the list, and please move quickly!

I came across this article on Murthy.com and got lil nervous.
http://www.murthy.com/news/n_hombus.html
I am currently on H1b applied for 485, LC Cleared, I140 Cleared.
I work for a company X but own another consulting company and I am a passive partner with a share of 49%. Another friend of mine who is also in the same boat as I am is another partner with 49% stake. My Sister who is a Green Card holder has 2% Stake and is an active partner.
I have not taken a single penny from the company in the last 2yrs we formed the company and we file a K1 every year. Even though the company makes profits/loss we are not taking the profit nor writing off the losses from our individual taxes, However both of us (I and my friend who are passive partners) end up doing most of the work such as
1. Signing the bank checks
2. Signing the USCIS documents for employees who are working for our company.(for I129, etc etc)
Does this mean that I am a clear candidate to be on INS Red alert/Radar?
I know that an H1b holder can have a company on H1B and cannot work for that company part time/full time precisely what I have been doing since I have never taken a pay check from the company however I never thought that this could have implications on the 485 approval.
Can some one answer my question. I guess I am more looking at some one like UnitedNations to answer.

does your I-140 have an A#? (the newer ones, issued in the last few months) do. If so, you can try sending the inital-evidence with a note asking them to ti tie to your 485 case, mentioning the A#. If you dont have A# ask your lawyer whats the best way out (name+DOB+??).
Keep a copy of your tracking number/fedex signature proof of whatever you send.

Your post from yesterday was denigrating a certain set of people. A number of our users also complained about that post.
Please do understand that we do not want to have any post that offend other people. Otherwise the lawmaker's staff and the media folks who visit our forums, will assume that our organization and members stand for such a stance.
So as per our posting guidelines shown at the top, we were forced to delete it.

Before i begin let me say its my mistake :(
My EAD expires Oct 08 and my lawyer sent me the forms to file in and send it back to him to be filed in Aug 08. But it was delayed by me till last week and was filed yesterday. what are my chances of getting EAD and continue working. In June 08 i went to India and came back using AP so i am not in H1 (i assume).
what should i do if i dont get EAD approved before oct 08?
Thanks:confused:

You need to be present in US at time of applying for the extension and when its approved. Said that in your case I think it would be fine to start H1B extension process after you are back. May be to be safe you can try doing it premium(if company is ready to spend extra money) as it gets done usually in less than a month.

For EB3 case, after receiving the approval for I 140, I know that we have to wait till DOL Proiority Date is current to be able to file for I485.
If we decide to receive the green card in any consulars overseas, can we just go ahead and file the I485 after getting the I140 approval? (without waiting for PD to be current)
Any advice would be appreciated?
I believe that you will have to wait for priority dates to be current even if you go for Consular processing.
