Any thoughts why EB2 India hasn't gone beyond Apr 04 for over a year.
Is this because of EB3 to EB2 conversions? If so then the likelihood of EB2 - I dates moving a lot in Oct bulletin are low.
Are there any 'guesstimates' out there for the number of EB3 to EB2 conversions?
Based on posts from a number of reasons, the reason for EB2 India moving slowly are:
- lots of 485 applications (remember that EB2 India had been stuck at Jan 2003 for a LONG time, and all those people got to file only in July 2007)
- conversions of EB3->EB2
- LC substitution ending in mid which caused a lot of dormant LC applications lying around, to get used up and filed

Thanks casinoroyale, this is a good idea. Will make the change to display complete heading in the 'Recent forum posts' when you scroll your mouse on top of the heading of the post of the homepage.
Thank you. Is it possible to just increase the length or wrap it instead of displaying "Tooltip" when the user mouse-overs it?

I would advise against going outside of your district to apply.
If you are going to go via drop-box then they may not even accept your applications for stamping based on your Kerala address on your form for H1. If they do, they could very well reject it and ask you to go to Chennai consulate.
Why would you want to risk that?
Chennai does not have an availability till Oct and I am in INDIA in May. I was trying till today to get an apptmt in Chennai but not successful.
I have an AP (through my wife company GC petition), worst case I will use it.

I dont think u'd be barred from entering that country again on a tourist visa but another PR? For sure u can forget that.
Why is that? What if I have a job offer from a canadian company and they sponsor me?

can anyone answer my question above.
since a copy of current I-797 is needed for renewing EAD, is it mandatory to keep renewing H1 even if i want to just work on EAD?
does anyone know for sure that a copy of CURRENT and VALID I-797 is needed for EAD renewal?

yeah.. it doesnt work that way, the fact that your lawyer checked "d" indicated you have an advanced degree (masters and beyond). you have to prove that your BS+X exp is in fact Masters equivalent with your LC and job ads and recruitment effort etc etc. It is then at the discretion of the IO to allow the classification under EB-2, else he will issue an RFE (which he did) and even after your response to RFE, he may deny the EB-2 classification and you will have to amend it with EB-3. Your lawyer should have known this would trigger an RFE.

I see what you mean, though. It will give me some things to play with as I continue to explore Photoshop.

My I-140 and I-485 was filed concurrently in July 2004. I-140 was approved in October 2004 for EB3-India. In November 2006 I changed employers after I informed USCIS. We received notice in March 2007 to show another approved I-140 as my I-140 was revoked. My attorney replied invoking AC21 and stating that my I-140 remains valid. He attached my own letter informing them of employer change notiifcation as evidence.
On this we received another RFE in Sept 2007 stating that more evidence was needed in the form of employer letter and my tax returns. We replied to this with all the evidence. Then in October 2007 we received finger printing notice which stated that in order to continue my petition finger prints would be required. The case stayed at Vermont service center.
In November 2008 the case was transferred to Texas and they transferred it to NBC in April for scheduling an interview. The interview was done this month.
The officer did not have any clue about AC21 and insisted that I must show another approved I-140 or a letter from USCIS stating that my I-140 is reinstated. My attorney told the officer that processing on my petition was continued after the RFE, the officer went to find supervisor and could not find anyone. We were told that they would get back.
Today they denied my case on the same grounds that underlying I-140 petition is withdrawn.
What can I do now? I don't have H1B. How much help the MTR would be as it would go to same office. Please help. I am shell shocked.

Mine is pending in CSC since April 2008. My husband's extension was applied in July, and it came through in September. But mine is delayed like crazy. Processing date last month was June 16 or something. We have filed SR on Oct 28, but there hasnt been any updates until now.
Bottom line, USCIS=random!
Could you please share how you filed SR, my h1 extn is pending for 92 days.

You may try with your office Zip code. In worst case, they may ask you to go the office near to you home. It is just a inquiry we schedule right - There won't be any problem.

10 year law is not true. However, if your kid turns 21 s/he can sponser your GC with considerable less delay.
