Its funny how employers like yours are digging their own grave in trying to enforce contracts such as yours.
Do consult a competent lawyer.

I went to REC (one of the top 20 schools in India) did my Mastrs in Full scholarship and have International papers for IEEE + Few Algorithms that have been presented at Int. Conferences,( I could not attend the conf. in Paris since I did not want to go and get stamped and go through all the hassel- Go figure). I am an Ideal candidate for EB1 but my lawyer said there is a 50/50 chance for further enquiry and it will only delay the process.
I know, I know but trust me, I was a University topper in Probablity and AI theories and I decided to chicken-out.
Not because I am afraid of enquiries, I just dont want to raise any flags. I want to keep working, Hopefully get my GC within few* years and then prove myself .
I applied under EB2 only because I don't want any enquiries and I know these POS lawyers will only delay the RFE's.
Anyway, I was just frustated, sorry about this rage but just needed an outlet.
People will only file under EB1 when A) They are not from India/China and They are not afraid to go and face any flags.
& /OR B) They have good lawyer, who is very much prudent and willing to take chances.
Any other theories and welcome
*CONDITIONS APPLY LOL
my friend, you've been played. EB1 requires no labor cert. Your lawyer convinced you to "chicken out" & wait a couple of years longer in the queue. Thereby paying him fees to help you do labor certs and multiple H1/EAD/AP renewals.

Dear h1bdude1:
I'm in your exact same situation. Would you mind letting me know what happened with your A# and misplaced EAD with only the copy of the front side? Did you use the old F-1 OPT A# or leave it blank?
Thanks and hope things worked out!

Is there a way to check if your case has been pre adjudicated. My 485 doesn't show any LUD since oct 2008. We changed address at the time. I thought that would result in a soft LUD. Nothing since then. My priority date is Jan 2007- EB2-I.

To apply for EAD you need the following documents
1. I-131 EAD Application document
2. Copy of I-485 receipt notice
3. 2 colored passport pictures - recent
4. Cashiers cheque as stated in the form.
Send all this in and wait. You dont need an attorney to do this. This is really a simple procedure.
You need to send in I-765 form and not I-131. I think I-131 is the form for advanced parole. Other than the form name, the above looks correct.

Well, doing it on my own isn't a problem. It's just that my employer is a behemoth and has ironclad policies.
Having said that, filing fees for EAD extension are $340 and for AP $305 per applicant, right?
Now I'll try my best to get EAD/AP extended either by me or the employer but if that doesn't happen (say my employer says it's our policy for you not to do it on your own), will a gap in EAD/AP create problems?
Thanks.
Maverick_2008
The gap by itself is not a problem. However, an abrupt termination or something similar can create trouble as applying for an EAD at that time and waiting for an approval will take months and cause a lot of stress. It can be painful enough to regret every morning the decision to not extend the EAD just to save $600.
If you do not have a copy of your 485 notice, then you cannot extend your EAD. But if you have it (you should), then it is your property and your employer has no say in this matter. Remember that the H-1b and 140 belong to the employer, but 485/EAD/AP are your own.

We are a big company B part of another big company Part A. The labor, I-140, and I-485 has everything mentioning B as the employer.
But for the employment letter, the lawyer got the letter from A which refers that I am a permanent employee of B with all the required details. I asked the lawyer why the employment letter is on company A's letter head and she said it is fine since your Company B is part of Company A.
I am concerned how will USCIS know Company A owns Company B. HOpefully it's fine.
Please help.

same situation here, never received the EAD and the IO asks us to re apply with the new filing fee of 340$ even for the replacment EAD.
Are you planning to reapply? did you find any way around it? You met the IO, so does it mean u took the infopass appointment for it or just showed up at the office?
Actually, thats another question- do you know whether you can go to USCIS office without an infopass appointment and try to meet an IO?

Really tragic, I noticed the cause of death was suicide by asphyxiation, they found a plastic bag around his head ?, that totally seems suspicious to me, an IITian will have a tons of job offers in India, so if finances were his problem that is ruled out, love problems ?, sad to see a 23 year old kid pass away like this.

You cant file H1 on your own. You need ur employers signature on it and ur employer has to file the petition. Even if you beat all that it is still very very risky to file on your own.
I am not filing on my own, I am trying to just do the paper work on my own and try to save unnecessary attorney fees. Of course my employer is going to sign the forms.

Hi All,
It would be great if you tell me how to go about with police complain for lost passport? Is it just I have to call 911 or go in person? And what questions they ask?
Thank You

Again, I want to point somethingout and that is because I myself work in that field - there are people with MS in Computer Science working in core Systems which require their Masters degree knowledge. So, it is not like IT is not included, people with masters in Computer Science is included in STEM.

we all need to fill the survey so that they can at least think about bumping up the priority.
PS: boy, there are lot of anti-immigrants than you'd think on this forum--people giving me RED:(
I'm assuming they'd fill out the survey the other way?
Thanks for the info! I just did and wrote the following..
"Immigration reform is badly needed to fix the broken immigration system. As a law abiding legal immigrant, I have been living in US since 2000. I filed for my Green card (EB3, India) in 2003. I still haven't received my Green card. Realistically, I can expect only in 2017, a solid 14 years after my initial filing. In my profession, technology chances at a rapid pace and 14 years is like several decades. Also, the economy would have several boom and bust cycles during those 14 years. Recession itself is very bad but a legal employment based immigrant goes through a "recession with severe restrictions"....
One has to live through it to understand it...In all this, one thing that keeps me awake is my strong desire to provide a better life for my children and to realize my version of the American dream."

Came to USA in 2001 Feb. As many other stories, my old employer did file my labor on Jan 2006 on EB3 though i was eligible to file under EB2. I have 3 + 2 years in India.
Changed employer using EAD in 08.
Current company is doing porting to EB2.
Unlike before, Now USCIS rule is have MSc(Computers) after completing 3 year degree in india is no longer equal to US master degree
it should be eaither 4(engineering)+2 (masters) or 3(BS)+3(MCA/other)
thus its equivalent to US bachelors degree.
So my employer (big 17k employees) decided to file based on my exp.
Job description says "Bachelors degree (B.A) in related area and 4-6 years of experience
in the field or in a related area."
Will this be a problem as one of EB2 requirement is BS or equivalent US degree with 5 years of experience. But this job desc says its 4-6 years..

Then again I presume it would involve paying a fee of $80 for the biometrics too each time you apply online. Could be avoided if we go paper based.
That does raise a small question here, the $1010 fee that we pay does that also exempt us on the biometric fee, so in essence AP/EAD/FP is all exempt irrespecitve the number of times we apply under the new fee structure?
I think the Biometrics fee should be covered....when we applied online...the biometrics fee was part of the entire AP fee...we didn't pay a separate fee. It doesnt make sense that just because you apply online, you have to go for biometrics but if you send a paper application, they would not require biometrics! What does the application method have to do with biometrics? I suggest you call up USCIS and confirm about the biometrics fee...but as far as I know...everything should be covered with the fee your wife paid during the AOS application..

My lawyer replied today saying that we cannot get an H1 extension as my 485 is filed and 140 cleared.
Your attorney's opinion is incorrect. You can request for 3 years extension as your 140 has been approved and PD is not current. If you PD is current, you will get only 1 year extension.

Hi Charles,
Thank you for taking the time to reply. Do you think that the appeal has any chance to succeed?
The current perm was applied for senior developer. While the appeal is pending, can my company apply for a new perm for a different position like enterprise architect?
Thanks
Dexter,
In addition to what the attorney wrote, PERM appeals take forever. So the best would be to re-apply for a new PERM.
