Jul 2nd Received by J Barrett at 10:25 AM at NSC
My I-140 was approved from TSC in Feb 2007
My PD is Jun 2003; EB2-India
Just curious, why didn't you file in June 07? Your PD was current then? You would have been way ahead had you filed in June.

Jawbreaker,
Now we just wait and hope our names dont get stuck in the FBI namecheck and then hope that visa numbers will be available.
(there are a few threads for Namecheck)
If you are on H1B, keep renewing it
If you applied for EAD and plan on using it with another employer make sure your 140 is approved and you have waited for 6 months after the I485 Receipt date before moving to a similar job.
you might get a couple of LUD's on the 485 in the mean time. ( I got one as recent as last week - not sure what it means)
budget money for EAD and AP renewals. Damn those are expensive now with the increased rates
and If nothing happens in 15 months, get ready for one more FP appointment.
check IV and other forums and help others with questions.

Whenever there is a tech system upgrade, especially of this magnitude, there are bound to have glitches, problems, etc...I wonder how smoothly the integration will go. Hopefully, all will be well and does not affect the productivity at CIS...The productivity is already so low at CIS...Hoping for the best...

Call the toll free number (877-CBP-5511 ) of the customs and border patrol (Questions/Customer Service - CBP.gov (http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/toolbox/contacts/customer_service.xml)). They can give you the location and number of your local city's office. Call your local city customs office and identify yourself using passport number. They may ask you some basic questions to verify your identity.
Inform the officer about the query from USCIS and ask them to give you the I-94 number, validity date. They wont give you a physical copy of I-94, but they will certainly tell you the I-94 number and expiry date. While responding to the RFE from USCIS, you can say that - "I-94 is taken back while leaving the country. Based on the call with Customs and Border patrol on so and so date and time, the I-94 number is blaw and validatity date is blaw blaw"
Your attorney should be able to write the above message in legal language. I had a similar RFE and I was able to call customs office and get all my I-94 information. When I called the local Customs and border patrol office, they picked up the phone immediately and they seem to be very friendly. Good luck.

Hi,
I am working on 8th year H1 visa (with approval notice) valid thru september 2009
Theres a expired visa stamped on my passport, which was march 2005. Do you think for my scenerio it is safe to visit Canada for stamping? And what documents did they ask you in your case, appreciate your help.
I went to Ottawa, Canada in January for visa stamping. I got Visa done.
On that day, I had seen most of the people attended for stamping are indians. Everyone was given visa.
Stamping is pretty easy at Ottawa. They dont ask you much questions. If one has all the required documents for visa stamping, its very easy to get stamping at ottawa.
Good Luck for your stamping.

Hi Saigc,
Same thing, my 485 is pending at TSC, and I used AC21 in Feb 08, saw few LUDS after that and since then no movement on 485, for 140 I haven't called USCIS, these days they are sending rfe's for no reason and hence I am keeping quiet, also for 140 there is nothing we could much, i spoke to my lawyer and he also said the same, only your old employer can talk to them, if we call uscis they won't tell you anything as we are not the employer, so keeping my fingers crossed and praying that its only a file cleanup, may be in Oct when dates are available they may send you , me and all others waiting desparately a GC, small ray of hope..god bless us all..if anything changes I'll keep you posted on my side..
Cheers

Some reactions:
On the rainbow shot, I would clone or crop out the dead twig on the right. Cropping is probably the better option because it will call more attention to the rainbow. I tried to process the image to bring the rainbow out more, but didn't have much success. Maybe someone else can help or maybe it can't be done.
I recropped the flower image and did a little minor processing to bring out more of the detail, particularly in the highlights.
Hope you don't mind me adjusting and reposting your images.

Inskrish,
Do I need to take separate appointments for my wife....I mean can I take one appointment on one Receipt # and check the status of hers too at infopass? On telephone call they always ask for the applicant when checking the status.
I'll take an infopass then...did u call us the customer service before the infopass...I am sure they'd have told you that your dependents are approved...I am sure infopass agent see the same screen as the customer reps at the Nat serv centers.
Thanks,
SoP

So GC journey,
You seem to be the only one other than me not to get a CPO or welcome email....could be that we are unwanted (unwelcome) greens....anyway I don't think you get a separate email for CPO after an approval mail...the first mail is usually a CPO/welcome mail ....Need to see what shows up in the Postal Mail when it arrives...
Keep us posted...and congrats..

Travel on AP and work on H1B? Have applied for 485, AP and EAD. By the way, what is the advantage of doing so?
Assuming you have valid I797 (h1), the advantage of using an AP is to reenter the country without worrying about getting a visa stamping in the passport. But if you already have a valid stamping then it does not matter whether you use ur h1 or AP to reenter the country.
But an EAD/AP is always good to have along with your H1 as that gives you another option of switching jobs after 180 days of filing 485, when the new employer is not willing to file a transfer of H1.
Cheers.

Hi,
Few months ago while googling about GC related stuff I came across a link, which, after going through few subsequent links, lead me to a link on the dol website from where I downloaded these databases. They are very huge (> 30 MB) so if you tell me (PM) you employer name and PD then I can look through the database and let you know the job title and code.
Thanks
