But he can not loose our hopes, remember this, for the american people legal inmmigration is Green Card holders, if you are a temporary worker is like they are telling you hurry up pack your things and get back to your place, and the congress will try to work legal and illegal immigration at the same time, probably they will increase visas, but anyways the point is who is making noise in the streets? illegals and their supporters. In my case i contact my senator and my congressman every month asking to please help with comprehensive immigration reform, to help us to create legislation on name check so we do not have to wait years, and well all of them are republicans but all of them are immigrants so they know our pain.

You can apply for SSN now. You don't need a job to get SSN because you have EAD.

Your story looks similar to mine. Before I go for my side of story let me tell you that going for premium is always good idea. I got my new I-140 (EB3) got approved within 2 weeks after we applied for my third green card process. Now with your labor and approve I-140 and remaining H1B visa you can go to new employer. I think you have plenty of time to go to new employer and transfer remaining time in your H1B. In between you can ask current employer not to revoke I-140 once it processed. This way you can later transfer dates from current GC process to new one. I think you are quite secure at this point of time to move to new employer. Just take in confidence with current employer for not to invoke I-140 until you transfer your date.
On my side of the story I did same thing (as explained above) in 2006 because of lay off . I had almost 1 year of time remaining on my H1B and had already crossed 6 years limit on H1B.). I did transferred my remaining H1B time to new employer (where I am right now) and started my GC process (2nd green card. I did not complete labor process or I-140 at my earlier employer so could not get transferred date). I got my labor approved for 2nd GC within few days of filling in late 2006 so my attorney filed for my H1B extension in 2007 for one more year based on my new labor. I don't know you call it luck that I got my extension of H1B for 1 more year based on new labor. As of now we have filed for 3rd GC for me because my I-140 got denied based on my education (A year ago we have appealed for the same)
In short what you can do is to go for premium proc for I-140 and transfer remaining H1 to new employer and try filling extension of H1 at new employer after it expires. Its little risky but like you said you might get laid off sooner or later. As always above information is from my experience but attorney can give you right advice. I did pay $200 to Murthy for advice on what to do while I was in your kind of situation in 2006.
Good luck.
My six year term of H-1B ends on 15th Nov 2011. My present employer is filling my I-140 ( as I am paying all the expenses) and the lawyer tells me that she will be able to file in 30 days in EB-2 ctaegory. However , now my job does not look very secure and I am afraid I might be laid off while my I-140 is pending. Thats why I am considering filing under premium processing by paying money out of my pocket.
My reasoning behind this is:
1) If laid off, with an approved I-140, I can apply for 3 year extension on a new H-1B with another employer and then work towards capturing my PD when time permits.
I realize I might have to go to H-4 to avoid getting out of satus while I am looking for new employer. Can anyone please guide if I have my bases covered or if there is a flaw in my reasoning. Should I go for premium processing or not.
Thanks

Summary - I have a valid H1B visa till 31 August 2010. I went for visa interview (renewal of H1B) on 25th Feb 2010. I was given 221g form. It was mentioned to submit few documents in the form. Documents were CV, job description, last travels to US in 5 years etc. I submitted those on 26th Feb 2010.
On 3rd March 2010, i returned back to US with my valid H1B visa and current I-797A. Got an I-94 at the Chicago port of entry with the expiration date of 30 September 2011 (same as expiration date of I-797A).
On 16th March 2010, i got an email from New Delhi embassy asking me to submit the passport. I replied asking if they need it for visa stamping. Embassy just replied with the same message asking for the passport.
The same day i called DOS (Department of State) and they mentioned that my case is still pending and they are not sure that why the embassy needs my passport?
I emailed embassy asking that how soon should i travel back to India. The NIV unit mentioned as early as possible.
Do you guys have any idea what is likely to happen when i submit my passport?

In my humble opinion, I think we all should write more to the main stream media about our stories targeting such as New York Times, public opinion column.
They may ignore us, but they will begin to be interested as volume increases. I haven't done it myself but I will try.
Those out there with a good English writing skills, please write more to main stream media.
I think a little story in the newspaper with a big readership may influence and change the way people think little by little.

Thank you for your comments.
For the period, I was on valid H1, employed, and not paid by my employer - I have a WH4 complaint registered and an acknowledgement from DOL that they have received the complaint.
I understand that this situation requires premium processing of H1. In case the COS is denied, which as pointed out is more likely, I understand that I will need to travel abroad to obtain a new I-94 with the new H1 approval.
1. If the COS is denied, can I use the unexpired H1B visa in my passport at the POE to enter the country and obtain a new I-94 based on the new H1 approval notice.
2. Is it wise and practical to make the new employer aware of my DOL complaint against previous employer during the H1 transfer process? Unless it is needed, I would prefer not disclosing that information to the new employer.
Thank you again for your time and recommendations.

How did you manage not to work for ABC if they processed visa for you? Why did ABC apply for your visa in first place if they had no work for you? You seem to have acquired H1B visa first and then you are looking for a job. Is it not a fraud? This is what anti-immigrants target and I don't disagree with them. There has to be a job position first and then there can be a visa associated with it, not the other way round. This is how people abuse the immigration system and then it becomes an easy target by anti-immigrants.

Hi.
Most of us who filed during jul/aug 2007 got our FPs done later that year.
Aren't those FPs valid for only 15 months or so?
So have folks started receiving their second FP notice yet?
Thanks.
va_dude
I was wondering the same thing. On other hand, I don't remember exactly where, read that as USCIS has updated their software, hence, FP's will not be required again. I may be wrong here, I myself, am interested to know if I need to follow up with USCIS after my jul-07 filing.

I'm puzzled that there has been a slow reaction to the Bernie Sander's killer amendment that was disguised as a scholarship fund which has always been there and has benefited many Americans and the National Science Foundation. None of the faxes have been amended neither have the emails, we're asking for good things which are only likely to benefit a few but leave many others in peril. We need to find a way to cushion the effect of this amendment and at the same time highlight that the H1 program is not what it has been vilified to be.
Point is, if IV attains its goals on EB visas, there will still be many members affected by Bernie Sander's amendment. Of what use will visa number availability be to someone whose non H1-B dependent employer makes an economic decision to lay them off as they can longer afford to spend $250,000 a year + attorney fees renewing 50 H1-B's ? Given that this person would instantly be out of status (and find it difficult to find an employer rushing to spend $5k right away), the individual would have no recourse also given that they would not be eligible for a Z visa. Can someone help me understand why sticking to an old though good strategy and message without slightly adapting it to the current reality holds good promise for those in limbo by paying no attention to the effects of the Sander's amendment (pending at BEC, beyond 6th year renewal, I-140 not filed as of May 21st 2007 etc)
1. Any H1B issues affect employers more than the employees, so employers will make an issue out of any onerous requirement.
2. Any H1B fee is to be paid by the employer and is viewed as a tax and cost of doing business by the employer. Like any tax, it will mean cutbacks in other areas possibly existing charitable contributions to education or some such non essential cost.
I would expect Compete America and employers to speak up if they feel they would be affected by any H1B taxes.

I filed 485 on July 18 in NSC. I called USCIS on Oct 16 (exactly the 90th day), early in the morning. 1-800-375-5283(1,2,2,6,2,2,1). The lady who picked up said they have introduced a new system to raise a 'Service Request' for those who are waiting for more than 90 days for check clearance. She siad that mine was the first case she was entering into the system. She keyed in my details and gave me a Service Request # and said that an agent will be assigned to my case within two days to look for my application. On Oct 18th, I found that my checks were cleared. But the rec # are not showing on online yet. So, pls call USCIS and raise a service req if you don't see any activity yet, it worked for me, though the rec # s not updated online yet.
I found that my appln was moved from NSC to TSC, as my rec # starts with SRC-08.
God bless u; I have asking them for a Service Request. They do not want to raise any Service Request and asked me to wait.

This is the only country in the world which experiences this constant and repeated rebirth. Other countries depend upon the multiplication of their own native people. This country is constantly drinking strength out of new sources by the voluntary association with it of great bodies of strong men and forward-looking women out of other lands. And so by the gift of the free will of independent people it is being constantly renewed from generation to generation by the same process by which it was originally created. �.. We came to America, either ourselves or in the persons of our ancestors, to better the ideals of men, to make them see finer things than they had seen before, to get rid of the things that divide and to make sure of the things that unite. It was but an historical accident no doubt that this great country was called the "United States"; yet I am very thankful that it has that word "United" in its title, and the man who seeks to divide man from man, group from group, interest from interest in this great Union is striking at its very heart. ----Woodrow Wilson
Nearly all Americans have ancestors who braved the oceans�liberty-loving risk takers in search of an ideal�the largest voluntary migrations in recorded history. Across the Pacific, across the Atlantic, they came from every point on the compass�many passing beneath the Statue of Liberty�with fear and vision, with sorrow and adventure, fleeing tyranny or terror, seeking haven, and all seeking hope�Immigration is not just a link to America�s past; it�s also a bridge to America�s future. � George H. W. Bush
I received a letter just before I left office from a man. I don�t know why he chose to write it, but I�m glad he did. He wrote that you can go to live in France, but you can�t become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Italy, but you can�t become a German, an Italian. He went through Turkey, Greece, Japan and other countries. But he said anyone, from any corner of the world, can come to live in the United States and become an American. � Ronald Reagan
Our attitude toward immigration reflects our faith in the American ideal. We have always believed it possible for men and women who start at the bottom to rise as far as their talent and energy allow. Neither race nor place of birth should affect their chances. � Robert F. Kennedy
Remember, remember always, that all of us, and you and I especially, are descended from immigrants and revolutionists. � Franklin D. Roosevelt
