I also called the number 202-224-7703. The lady told me that, it is scheduled for hearing this fall and we can check on Website judiciary.senate.gov . She said, usually they post the date, 1 week before the hearing in the committee. She is also told that, she is going to pass on the message for hearing, to the senators.

Has anyone claimed unemployment benefits in EAD in TX state after being laid off? Can you please tell whats the procedure. I do not want to get into the debate of whether UB can be claimed while in AOS state? I just need to know the procedure. Thanks.
If you just need the procedure and no discussion then why not call the unemployment office in your local area and find out yourself.

Hello,
I am on F1 visa from India and doing PhD US university. My husband is in H1B visa from 2007 November. I would like to apply for green card via National Interest Waiver. When I asked an attorny, he said that since you are from India, it will take few years to get EAD. But I read that you can apply I-40 and I-485 concurently and get EAD card in an year.
Can anyone help me please?

I-485 can be rejected if filed with incomplete initial evidence.
Folks, it is the time for us to be more careful than even to make sure that our lawyer files I-485 correctly. With there mistake, we can really get screwed up. All they can say one word �Sorry�.
It happened to me while filing for H-1 extension, I got only one year extension, based on Labor pending whereas my I-140 was approved at that time, they refilled at no cost to me with 3 year extension.
Here in I-485, refilling will not be possible, since by the time we get the receipt notice, the date might have moved back already.
I have not yet received the originals supporting my BC.............. is it a problem............ everything else i have but still waiting for the affidavits............. can you please elaborate on this............

Just so all can understand :
Did you go for visa stamping while your current visa was valid and you came back to US with old (but valid) stamp while they are processing your request because they wanted more info?

if it's any help i have a 2nd hand Sigma APO macro 70-300mm. like NikNikon i found the D70 kit lens much sharper generally, but the sigma when stopped sown to f8 or f9 at 300mm seems to be sufficiently clear enough and really helps for picking out faces in crowds etc. i recently went to a chinease new year festival and the extra reach of the lens blew me away. i could get full frame shots of the dragon mask even though i was stood further back in the crowd. being stopped down thoough i find if the light is less than ideal i need a very fast ISO to keep the shutter speed up. hope that helps :-)

Hi Guys -
I have a question about EAD and related to it is a question of re entry in US.
I am currently on h1b visa and have approved I 140 and was able to file for I-485 application alongwith EAD in July 07 fiasco. I got my EAD in Aug 2007 but never used it. I did not apply for AP.
Currently I am working as a consultant for (say) Co. ABC but my h1b holder is a desi consulting firm (say) Co. XYZ.
Now Co. ABC wants to hire me on EAD and I also want to take up this position. My current h1b expires in SEP 08 and my contract with Co. ABC expires May 2nd 2008.
If I take up a FT job with Co. ABC on May3rd and then go to Canada on May 15th for 10 days and then come back on May 25th and enter on h1b, what could be the impacts???
It is too late for me to apply and get the AP but I have to travel on May 15, at the same time I dont want to lose this position and want to take up the FT job.
Any suggestion on what could be my options to consider. I know that as soon as you use your EAD you lose h1b status but how does USCIS comes to know? How much time it takes for them to actually know that you have moved from h1b to EAD?
Gurus - please help me here...........

Most of the corporate companies wont ask until you get through the interview. It is ideal to have it on hand so that If they ask you, you should be in a position to provide them.
If you apply for SSN with EAD card, you will receive the SSN card in a week time. In case of H1B, it takes about 4-8 weeks to receive the SSN card on hand.
hi !
Thank you gurus for your quick response .... have one more question in mind ...
Is it a pre-requisite to have SSN before applying for a job ?
thanks

If your labor was filed in 2004, you can apply for I-485 if your approved I-140 is ofr EB2.
Although I filed the Labor Certification Application (regular filing) in mid 2004, I couldn’t apply for I-485 in July/Aug 2007 because my LC was still pending at that time. Later in 2007 I got the Labor Certification and in 2009 I received the I-140 approval.
While may case was stuck in a DOL backlog elimination center, many people who started their permanent residency process in 2005, 2006 and 2007 were able to take advantage of the I-485 filing window because of RIR and PERM filings.
I am wondering if I could request USCIS to extend to me the same EAD Card benefit that applicants with a later priority date are enjoying. Is it something I can appeal to an immigration board or to an immigration court? I have been working in H1B since 1999. Would 11 years in H1B (and 3 years in F1 prior to that) carry any humanitarian consideration in a court of appeal?
Could someone please advice?
Thank you.

Great job folks. Not only Ac21 issue, but if there is any other issue, please lodge a complaint with the Ombudsman's office.
I would also suggest that those who have had their I-485 denied due to changing employers should submit DHS Form 7001 to the Ombudsman's office.

marty,
That's a good idea. I've already initiated the contact with the congressman for our area. Would keep the forum updated about how it goes.
Thanks,

If you have all the PERM case numbers with you then you should be able to find your PD in this link
http://www.flcdatacenter.com/CasePerm.aspx and
It is interesting that you can find company names and sponsored people in this database. With job titles you can even guess who they are. I found mine, my job title being so specific.
Although employer owns I-140, it also relates to the person being sponsored. So, it should be possible to get a copy from Company A and B.
