hello all..
im currently living in NJ and my i-140 was approved.. since im on EB3 and my priority date is on 4/2008 i still have some time to wait in order for a visa to be eligible to me..
my main concern is : i would like to know if its possible for me to obtain a driver license with the approval notice i received from USCIS (i -797c Notice of action).. does my employer will need to fill out any forms for for that to happen ?? if so, what kind of forms :(
any help is appreciated..

Please complete your profile, so that those responding are able to understand your situation better.
I assume that your I-485 is not yet filed. If it is true, you must be having a H1-B or other work visa to maintain your work status. If yes, those are the documents you will need to get Drivers License extensions.
To my knowledge, approved I-140 is not an immigration status that can enable you to get a Drivers License extended on its own.

Good afternoon all,
I am very new to this world of immigration employment, and I am not sure what I need to do to assist an associate in finding employment and (ultimately residency) in the US. He is a friend of mine's father, and has been out of work in the Ukraine for the last 8 months; he is an electrical engineer by trade and has university degrees.
From what I can gather, the Employ American Workers Act seems like it could be an impediment in obtaining a H-1B Visa (This is the type of Visa that he would need to work in the US, correct?)
Can anyone provide any guidance or suggestions on how to begin the job seeking process, and potential obstacles to be aware of?
Thank you so much for any assistance that you may be able to provide!

All,
I'd mentioned the Silicon Valley India Community Centers (http://indiacc.org/Default.aspx)here before. They are apparently large, well run and well funded.
They put us in their Feb 23 newsletter (http://app.e2ma.net/app/view:CampaignPublic/id:866.206866750/rid:9942a913fae5c7ff928f6dce7356fc38). They got the description a bit wrong (workers on temporary visas), but hey they put our link in there.
I'm also working on having IV appear at some of their other events in the near future.
best,
Berkeleybee

My H1 Extension approved from Sept'2010 - Dec 2012. LCA shows same dates and the salary shown is $5500 PM ($66000 P.A)
However recently, i noticed that i am receiving $5373(instead of $5500) per month since Sept'2010 till date.
I informed to my employer and he is willing to increase the pay from March.
Is it possible to correct it from March payroll.
Please advise.
Regards,
Sunshine

I also dint receive the FP notice for my son. When I checked the USCIS help desk and also with my attorney for my son's (5 years) FP, I was told that kids under 16 years (16 years if I correctly remember) dont need FP in 485 processing.

Hi. I am currently here in the US applying for AOS from a B2 to F1 visa. I sent my application on the 26th April with USPS Express mail request return reciept. My current 1 94 expired on April 28th. My return receipt from USPS says that my item was signed for on April 28th leaving me still in status but when I received my I 797 C it says that the receipt date is April 29th. I am very worried and I am wondering if this is something I should call their customer services department about. I do not want my application denied simply because I may seem not to be in status. Please help, I am very worried.
As long as you have a copy of the delivery receipt you are good and not out of status.

On this case, I am getting mixed anwsers
Employer's lawyer is saying that i can continue to work since have valid I-94 and they are going to appeal. Lawyer called USCIS officers and USCIS officers confirmed this ( !!!).
Second lawyer is saying that i should stop working on denied petition.
Once you apply for appeal or motion your H1B peition status changed from 'Denied' to 'Pending' and you may continue to work for employer. - this is my guess
In fact, I am planning to get advice from murhty too...
Any thoughts on this.
RG said u can work.

Note - This has been posted in the regular forum also. Re-posting it here to get an attorney perspective.
I just wanted to throw this out there, since I did not get any definite answer from any forums.
When in need for I-485 issues, who is better to contact - Congressman or Senator.
I just want to know the pros and cons of each and maybe this analysis will help others down the line.
Points to note are:
1. There are more congressman in a particular state than senators. There are only 2 senators in a state.
2. Senators are more powerful than congressman (not sure that this power applies for talking to USCIS or not)
3. Senators and congressman have different terms in office. Hence is it better to contact someone who is going to stay longer, or someone who is up for election soon and hence may help.
4. For a particular USCIS case, can we contact both congressman and senator at the same time. Is this good.
Can members throw some light on this based on their prior experience and based on their knowledge.
Thanks in advance.

Before i begin let me say its my mistake :(
My EAD expires Oct 08 and my lawyer sent me the forms to file in and send it back to him to be filed in Aug 08. But it was delayed by me till last week and was filed yesterday. what are my chances of getting EAD and continue working. In June 08 i went to India and came back using AP so i am not in H1 (i assume).
what should i do if i dont get EAD approved before oct 08?
Thanks:confused:
stop working until you get your EAD

Tell me what you think.
--Is the image worth capturing, i.e., does it have enough photographic value to be worth the trouble?
--What would you do to improve composition?
--How would you crop it differently?
--Would you have done something different in post-processing?
--What is your honest opinion of the image?

Dallas-Fort Worth Immigration Lawyer Has Just Posted the Following:
The primary question among immigrants, immigrant advocates, and anyone else interested in immigration reform is whether the president and congress will attempt to address comprehensive immigration reform this year. As reported in the Dallas Morning News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/nation/stories/DN-immig_12nat.ART.State.Edition1.c062d6.html), President Obama says he is still committed to reform, Here are excerpts from the article:
President Barack Obama on Thursday assured frustrated supporters of a promised overhaul of U.S. immigration laws that he remains committed to fixing a system he says is broken.
What remains unclear is whether Congress will send him a bill this year.
Obama said he told the senators and the advocacy groups that "my commitment to comprehensive immigration reform is unwavering, and that I will continue to be their partner in this important effort."
The immigration issue is an important one for Obama, who has promised to work to solve problems. Hispanics voted heavily for Obama in the 2008 presidential election, making the difference in key states like Florida, and their votes will be critical in the November midterm elections. Latino voters who don't think progress is being made on the issue may not go to the polls.
After meeting for more than an hour with Obama, immigration advocates told reporters they want Schumer and Graham to at least release their blueprint before a planned March 21 demonstration at the Capitol, with a bill introduced in the Senate soon after.

Hi,
Thanks for my previous response. I am on H1B and between projects. I have an offer to work for a couple of days for a company other than the one holding my H1B. They said they are not gonna report to the IRS as its an hourly job for 2 days and the number of hours are not going to accumulate enough for the IRS. But they need my SSN or tax-payer ID to run their payroll. I am gonna receive my dues as a simple check (like a rebate check with just the total amount showing up & NOT a paystub). Please let me know if I can work for them or not.
