I filed my 485 in July 11th and have received the 485 receipts. There is a possibility that I might get laid off before Jan 11 (180 days). My H1 B expires Nov 2008.
Questions
1. Can I stay legally in US if I get laid off in Oct 07 ?
2. How can I proceed with my Green Card process ?
I think this might be a repeat question, but would still like to get your thoughts.

If your I-140 is approved and if ur employer could continue ur GC for more than 180 days as a future employee you could work for another employer on H1B till then and then the new employer could take over ur GC process. However plz check with an attorney though.

needhelp! I have never met you but from seeing your effort in the fund drive I know you motivate people.
Keep up the good work, with time your state chapter will be one of the best.
Shame on those who RSVPed and didn't show.
Our current situation is dire. Even a back of the envelop calculation of wait times for a lot of us seems unreal. Being inactive in the only organization that speaks in our voice is just not being smart. We cannot let laziness take over and live in denial of the immigration mess.
For the members who do not want to volunteer for IV activities, the least you can do is contribute to the IV funds.

Hi,
1. I filed for my I-485 in July 2007 with the old fee. This included AP & EAD
2. AP and EAD were renewed in 2008 Sept, with new fee for both of these
3. AP is up for renewal, so is it free for me,or do I need to pay $305 again?
My question arises, since I assumed that the "free renewal" is for anyone who pays the new fee "once" for the EAD/AP.
Anyone who knows about this thing?
Thanks.

We do not welcome annonymous users and their posts. IV does not even answer any anonymous user or helps any anonymous user in PMs or emails.

People with 07 PD has the privilege to cheer when they cut in front of us, but we should not feel sad for being pushed back because it is a disruptive behavior.
Please do not list what you have done to add items in the legislation to help BEC victims, it does not look genuine any more when it is considered disruptive to express one's depression on a board specially for BEC victims.
This will be my last post, as I am sure they will ban both my ID and IP. For everyone who still reads my post, Good luck!

I had FREE company attorney but decided to file 485 etc. myself & it was so much better. You can easily do 140-485 etc yourself. Call me & I will tell you.
If at all use an attorney for PERM. In my situation, even that was screwed up & I had to do that myself.
It is high time, all of us capable of handling complex viral equations, do this simple job , spread the knowledge , save $$$ & contribute some savings to IV

Cantwell is there. May be they did not update their site, but they updated the bill number. The heading says "Background Information on S. 1639, formerly S. 1348"
The word on the street is that the Cantwell amendment is not a part of the list of amendments that are currently floating around in Senate offices. There are 20 of them.
Even Bernie Sanders has one more coming (Yes, it is related to H1B). But Cantwell amendment is not there in the list of 20.
Here is the list of 20:
Democratic Amendments
1199 Dodd Family parent visas
1313 Webb Community ties for Zs
1236 Baucus-Tester Strike all reference to REAL ID
1332 Sanders Employers to certify no mass layoff
1344 Byrd Border security immigration fee
1317 Menendez Increased family points in merit system
1340 Brown Employers post job at state agency
1468 McCaskill Repeat violators who hire undocumented workers
1486 Levin Iraqi religious minority refugees
1386 Leahy Refugee Scholars (may instead be 1289 on EB-5 investors)
------ Schumer Tamper-proof biometric social security card (no language yet)
1198 Boxer Reducing Y visa cap by number of Y workers who overstay
Republican Amendments
1161 Alexander Oath of allegiance for naturalization (may move to manager�s package)
1255 Bond Prohibits green cards for Z holders
1473 Coleman information sharing/sanctuary cities (Coleman is redrafting, new language not available)
1335/1258 Domenici Federal judgeship increase (redrafting)
1490 Ensign Preclusion of social security benefits
1465 Graham Enforcement, plus other potential agreed upon amendments folded in (redrafting, content not clear)
1441 Grassley-Baucus Obama Strike and replace Title III (small changes possible)
1440 Hutchison Touchback/strike and replace title vi (redrafting)
1174 Thune Probationary legal status triggers
1318 Chambliss Totalization agreement
1282 Isakson Preemption/Home Depot (redrafting)
------ Graham Criminal penalties/mandatory minimums for overstays

Hi,
I came in Jan 07 on F1. I got my H1-B in Apr 07, but is effective Oct 1, 07. My school, NJIT, starts on Sept 1, 07. If I have to maintain a full-time student status from Sept 1 to Sept 30 then I have to pay $5,000. If I have to maintain a full-time student status from Sept 1 to Sept 17 then I have to pay $1,200.
Please let me know
1> Will it be problem if I don't take any course in Sept i.e. I am not a full time student during Sept.?
2> If it is problem then will it be problem if I drop courses on Sept. 17? What will be my status for 13 days from Sept 18 to Sept 30?
3> Is there any college in NJ/NY area which starts in Oct so that I can transfer to that college and maintain my full time status till Sept 30?
4> Any other suggestions about what I can do?
My employer has suggested not to go to India and go through H1-B stamping.
Thanks.

I agree with OP that we should know what's going on. But at the same time there is nothing called free lunch in this world. I suppose some guys in this forum have lot of time and energy to vent it out on each other. We won't achieve anything with all this fighting... but seems we are best in altercating with each other. Some times I just wonder whether folks out here are really skilled immigrants (gimme red dots)?? We should better do something constructive..

Somebody has to pay for the govt's bills..
Feds have virtually lifted all grants and support to USCIS as they have to fund their other projects. USCIS was asked to be self sufficient. I also read it somewhere that they are pressured to fund some govt. projects. How that will come ?? Skin the immigration seekers...beat them, whip them.. after all it's their choice to live here...
How can anyone explain this now? Isn't it a money scheme? Is it reasonable to loose 3 months when you had already paid for it? There is always confusion in this whole GC affair. There seems no option than to live with it and move forward.

Piyushpan, I see this provision as:
I think the intent of the provision is that this category of people not be subject to labor certification, but there is no language in the bill that says that.
Here's the summary from Sen Frist's website:
Section 405. Student Visas.
Section 405 extends foreign students� post-curricular Optional Practical Training (and F-1 status)
to 24 months. It also creates a new �F-4� student visa for students pursuing an advanced degree
candidates studying in the fields of math, engineering, technology or the physical sciences. The
new visa would allow eligible students to either to return to their country of origin or remain in
the United States for up to one year and seek employment in their relevant field of study. Once
such a student received such an offer of employment, the individual would be allowed to adjust
status to that of a legal permanent resident once the alien paid a $1,000 fee and completed
necessary security clearances. Eighty percent of this fee would be deposited into a fund for job
training and scholarships for American workers, while twenty percent of the fee would go
toward fraud prevention.
So if you would have qualified for the F-4 visa if this bill had been in effect at the time of your graduation and you have secured employment in the US, you can adjust your status.
Plus, Section 406 says: if you have been employed for 3 years, then a visa number will be immediately available to you. Otherwise, Section 405 still says you have to wait till a visa number is available.
