Don't get excited too soon :)
I saw the following message when I logged into the USCIS case tracking system.
* Note on "Last Updated" date:
Your case may have a new "Last Updated" date and you may receive an Email Notification of your case being updated, without the status of the case changing. This is due to internal USCIS processing being performed on your Case. This will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date, but may not result in a different status message.
I saw LUDs for both me and my wife's 485 on 11/22(Sat) and 11/24.
PD-12/05
RD-07/03/07
This LUD was after more than a year. Hope Jan bulletin brings some movement.

Quetions to Gurus. I did read in so many forums since long time but did not get a clear understanding around salary.
1) What is the meaning of "There should not be very huge variance in income levels."
Does it mean while moving from one job to another (1 time)?
2) What if the GC is filed 8 years ago and the person is still waiting but got an average of
10% hike every year. Is that a problem?
Generally speaking: There is NOTHING in the INA nor AC-21 that prohibits one from getting salary increases. As long as you do at your work what is consistent with the approved form I-140, you salary can go up, and in normal circumstances, should go up periodically. I think what the previous member mentioned was that if, for instance, your wage specified on labor and I-140 was going to be 50k/year, u changed employers and is 150k/year, that can raise a question whether or not u do the same thing as u did before, and if your job duties still match with your approved form I-140. Having said that, regular salary changes are not a problem as long as you earn more than the prevailing wage determination. I hope this answers your both questions.
Best Regards,

emmNemm,
read page 3&4 in the instructions for I-131 in the link below
http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-131instr.pdf
it clearly says ur AP app. is considered abandoned if u leave US before approval of AP.
options,
> getting H4 VISA stamped
> apply for a new AP ( not sure if its possible while u r outside, do some research, may be possible, read the instructions above thoroughly)
better get a legal advice.
leo,
cool down man, show some compassion to the bro. i agree its a novice question. but not every one is as knowledgeable as you. dont need to be harsh. seems like u know so much, his question looks silly, pl. give him a better advice.
Hi,
We applied for EAD and Adv parole renewal on July 2nd for my wife. Her new EAD card was received in September and no word on the Adv Parole yet. Online status still shows 'case received and pending'.
She had her previos Adv Parole expiring on Oct 22nd. She left to India on Oct 1st. Now that her previous Adv Parole has expired and new one still not approved, will they allow her to enter US?
Thanks!

These can be done through state chapters. In tri state chapter, we have always been having meet and greets. A lot of pics have been uploaded to http://immigrationvoice.blogspot.com
During the first few months of IV - when there was a meeting, we had around 3 to 5 people, but in a recent IV meeting in New Jersey we had around 60 people.
Anyone can take an initiative and do this.
Conference calls, meet and greet, publicity campaigns etc... can all be done effectively via state chapters

If you work for sponsoring employer, your H1B is still valid, eventhough you enter with AP.
This is grey area and the interpretation can change any time. Please note that entering on AP is not same as entering with visa stamp.

I received my card production ordered email today. All thanks God for making all this possible. I came to the US in Jan 1995 on F1 to begin my undergrad, switched to H1 in 1998, had a GC PD of 2002, and now 14 years and a countless visa's later, I was greened today.
I would not have made it through this journey without the expert advice on this forum to all the questions I asked - and just seeing everyone's contributions whether +ve or -ve to remind me that I am not in this thing alone.
For those that are still on the journey - just hang in there and your time surely will come!
Congrats !!! I think u should party hard for a long time...

Once again Thanks, Bestin.
I am married long enough and I do not want to get into marriage again with a GORI ladki. Once bitten twice shy :rolleyes:. Enough is enough.
I spoke to my manager who had agreed to do the needful. However, he had put another spoke now by writing in the approval email that it is my responsibility to keep the EAD current.
I do not understand this part- I am working on H1-B, why should I keep my EAD current, by paying my own fees?
^^^bump^^^^
any answer please? When I am working on H1-B, why should I keep my EAD current?

09/27/2008: Senate Passed Consolidated Continuing Appropriation Bill, H.R. 2638
* Today, the Senate also passed this bill by agreeing to the House H.R. 2638 which the House paased earlier. Here is the vote count. This bill now goes to the President for his signature. The President is expected to sign all of these bills, including Consolidated Continuing Appropriation, Reauthorizations of Non-Miniter Religious Worker Special Immigration, and Conrad 30 International Medical Graduates National Interest Waiver bills before October 1, Wednesday. Otherwise, the federal government is destined to shut down and the immigration reauthorization laws will sunset and gone. The President is anticipated to sign these bills by September 30, 2008.
* Sad part is that the immigration reauthorization is valid only until March 6, 2009 just as the continuing appropriation act. Still, it is a good news in that most of the pending I-360 non-minister religious worker immigration petitions, Conrad-30 based I-140 petitions, and EB-485 applications related to these petitions are likely taken care of before March 6, 2009. The USCIS is currently holding in abeyance these petitions and related EB-485 applications pending the Congressional action. Since the Congress has now cleared the path, as soon as the President signs the bills, the USCIS is likely to pick up these petitions and 485 applications swiftly. Unfortunately, the Conrad 30 based EB-485 for Indians and Chinese may still have to deal with the visa number retrogressions in October 2008 Visa Bulletin. The non-religious workers do not have visa number problem as the visa number for these categories will remain current in October.
What does it mean -- conrad 30 related I-140 and related I-485 will be taken care of prior to March 2009??? What is he trying to say there? Where can I find some more details on that bill.

This article is old (Dt:06-Sep-06) but has correctly predicted about SKILL bill going to lame-duck session.
It would be great if our core members get in touch with the executive editors of Information week (All contact information listed in informationweek.com) and send a document representing our issues. There is a good chance that it gets printed.
Information week magazine has a nationwide audience including CEO's who can push our case for lobbying. They have printed various articles in the past about HIB and Greencard issues.

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.

Even though receipts are generated based on received date, I assume they will process by priority date , if not what is use of priority date after filing I-485?
Gurus, any body know how USCIS will process 485 applications?
If the dates are current, then from what I have heard is USCIS will process the 485 applications based on the RD, if the dates are not current then it is based on PD.
