seekerofpeace - I hope they have not lost my file. I have not been able to get a concrete answer so far as to what is happening with my file.
My attorney had filed 140s for in EB2/EB3 and I hope they have not taken my app and classified it as EB3. We sent the EB2 I-140 with the AOS app so I dont think that would happen but stranger things have happened with USCIS.
Response that I got from the local senator and from what I read in the other thread you created, I think visa numbers are over for 2009 fiscal year. We will now have to wait until October. I dont mind waiting until October, but I want to use the next 15 days doing whatever I can, so atleast in October, I have some chance of getting approved.
Good luck to you, hope everyone who is waiting gets the good news soon.

I just called all the numbers and left messages. Wouldn't it be more impactful if we have someone like Vinod Khosla represent us. These calls are great but someone who can walk directly into the Congresswoman/Congressman office will give us greater mileage in our efforts.

Just did a rough sketch on paper, and then drew it up in vector, no secret really... and to be honest it isnt perfect at all, but turned out ok.
I guess drawing it at a larger scale then shrinking helped with some of the fine tuning.

If my GC gets rejected 3-4 years from now for any reason (however weird or stupid) then I don't think I would go through the whole GC nightmare once again.
Since this is my last GC application, I would rather use whatever benefits I have to the fullest then simply waste them. ;)

Again, including her name on your I-485 application would not help her to "get into the queue". You need to file another I-485 for her and you can only do that if she is physically present in the US. (you need the I-94 card). You could have the court marriage in July and bring her here on an H4 or other visa, and then file for her I-485 as well.
I am in a similar boat as you, except my ritualistic wedding would be in Aug and I am banking on the hope that the dates would still remain current for August.
[QUOTE=manojp4]You cannot do CP for your spouse unless your I-485 is approved (an immigrant visa number is available for you). That is why the adjustment of status within the US is so much more preferable for most people - it lets you and the spouse get the EAD and start working without waiting for the approval of your GC.
Thanks manojp4, appreciate your help. Just to clarify my doubt, she would need to file a 485 anyhow, before the dates retrogress again, right. Would it matter if I included her name in my filing, along with the marriage certificate. I guess all I am trying to understand is I know 100% that I will be married before I file, would that help her in anyway, lets say if the dates retrogress in August and she cannot file till then.

Heyyy not allowed, you can't skin the screen/clickwheel.
Thats not how a skin works mate
Actually I wrote that same comment about someone else's a while back:
Very neat. I like your black screen and nifty scrollwheel as well. I'm not sure if you're allowed to change them, but either way they look neat.
To which the creator of the battle responded:
@ElectricGrandpa: Im accepting it, its just some scan lines over it, and a black screen.
So as far as I can tell, it's fair game.
Funny how much the background makes it look better
Yeah well the design in itself is fairly simple, but I've gotta make it stand out somehow. If I had a real iPod skin I would want it that simple as well.

We are already exploring this route. You might have seen Pappu's response on two strategies we are exploring for break down by category/country of birth for every quarter.
Please ask the person who ever worked with Senator Kyl's office to get in touch with us via PM.
I would like to speak with this person asap to know more about the background behind this effort.

First off, any DOL complaint don't need u to be here to continue with the investigation. The way it works is, u tell them ur entire story and leave. They'd take their time to investigate using all the documentation u'd have provided them, and in the end if ur employer was found guilty, they might still let him off the hook giving him a warning. There's really no guarantee that ur employer wud be found at fault unless they find more employees lodge complaints against him. U might be the only one.
Anyhow, u can give it a shot and see what happens as u have nothing to lose. I know that ppl hv tried this b4 without much luck. Employers hire attorneys to save them from such situations. Ur employer closing down shutters is a far fetched thought...just saying...US laws are quite tricky.
H1 transfer at this point may not really work for u as u dont hv paystubs. Sorry, its a bad situation to be in. I understand u paid from ur pockets to come here and it sucks - Good luck!
@Snathan how did you know he didn't call me here , are you one of the consultants yourself who does this filthy work of cheating people.
I guess it was my employers discretion to make me sit home with him just not responding to my mails, i couldn't barge in to his office and say hey give me desk to work on? can i ?
Anyways looking at the LCA agreement i think you don't seem to know what you are talking about, I am here holding his company's name on my H1B form , His agreement on LCA and his employment letter, i dunno if there is any other way i could make inroads into barging into his office?
Now if he puts a security guard against me entering his office, shouldn't i report this to DOL too?

Q.1) I understand you can't file 485 for your spouse if PD is not current but does the PD need to be current to add your spouse as a dependent on your 485 application w/o filing 485 for her?
Q.2) Q.1 raises Q.2. When the dates are no more current, is adding your spouse as a dependent on your 485 safe enuf for her to be considered for filing 485 and getting GC when the dates will be current in future.
Earlier In this thread- page # 3, I had setup a 485 kunwaras mailing list. I spoke to 3 different attorneys including murthy's and came to this conclusion- hope this removes lot of redundant questions.
First of all, I work for LitIGATION technology company so please - don't doubt any accuracies - All our clients are top attorneys and I have used all my resources and this is the most creative idea i came-up with
***********************************************
How to delay 485 approvals - - - -
Wait for 15th July- If PD is current in August - don't apply in July , if not, go for last week of July
Since there are ton of cases, one will not get FP in traditional 30 day but they will get it around 60-90 days (assumption based on ,immigration and immigrationvoice forums and comparing influx with 1999-2000 dates becoming current situation. Yes, i have taken into assumtion that there were 195K h1's that time )
Ok so it's september already and you got your FP! But you want to have a total period of 1 year without losing your pd or your file in queue.
If dates are current in August then rescheduling september FP will go to December/November at the best!
Then you complete the fp process and the average time is 8 months - considering the flood of applications and dates will definately hit retrogressing in Nov-dec, They will assign cut-off dates. lets assume they go back to where the dates were in May/June 07 , then ,you will need to see where you are in the queue. There are some creative ways of generating an RFE (without getting 485 rehected due to initial evidence)- but it's not recommended ;-).
Keep-up the good work and please contribute if you want to thank me.

I would think IT experience is the same anywhere so taking it to canada should be ok? If not there are plenty of other management jobs there. It might be a new start but in a one year timespan you will be well established.
Is it just my wishful thinking?
As for masters, are you persuing MBA? How about PMP?

it's a "skin" if you were to wrap the thing celophane with your design you wouldn't see the wheel or the screen... I say play with the screen, the button but not the wheel. besides, you would rub it off in one day and then it would reaaly look like arse.
Obviously you've never seen an iPod skin. It does actually have holes in it for the click wheel and screen.

I saw the poll in the morning and voted FOR making this a paid site, but going through the discussions and a little bit of soul searching (slow day at work :p) i am a bit wary about making it a paid site now.
As much as i would like to see the riff-raff (pardon the expression) go away, maybe we should be more inclusive then exclusive (?). Not everyone is an early adoptor, it took me a while to contribute as well, but i did eventually turn around and contributed the lil bit i could.
Thats just my take, and excuse the rather altruistic title of my post.

MurthyDotCom : MurthyBulletin (http://www.murthy.com/bulletin.html)
Conclusion
�MurthyDotCom
Employers whose business model may be viewed by the USCIS as within the third-party placement are likely to face RFEs in their H1B petitions. Such employers need to review the factors set forth in the memo as indicators of control, and anticipate the need to prove control over their employees or modify their practice to incorporate the factors to establish a direct employer-employee relationship. This memo is significant to the IT consulting industry, and could disrupt many other business sectors. Absent this source of workers, the end clients would be forced to change their business models with regard to how they meet their short- and mid-term IT needs. The impact would not be limited to IT consulting companies, but would also be felt by their clients, which include many of the largest U.S. companies and even the U.S. federal government.
�MurthyDotCom
The Murthy Law Firm recently has responded successfully to RFEs on the employer-employee issue. To the extent appropriate, we will utilize the new memo and USCIS update as additional guidance on acceptable evidence in such matters. The memo appears to change prior, established practice and law. It is inconsistent with other federal statutes in defining the terms "employer" and "employee." A challenge by H1B employers may be required, unless the USCIS reconsiders or modifies its position. We at the Murthy Law Firm remain available to assist our clients in connection with H1B cases, including issues that will arise as the result of this memo.
