I also got the same letter from USCIS today.
Where is the core who advised us to fax letter to USCIS. Please let us know what the action plan is ?
I am ready for $25.
I think we need to contact Ombudsman with this letter. This is ridiculuous.

However, she never got the aprroval notice for the second H1B application. Actually this case is currently still pending.
There is a possibility that
- approval notice might be lost in mail
- uscis misplaced her file
Check with uscis what happened to her application for transfer and you might have to contact attorney depending on uscis' answer.

I think, he mentioned about posting offensive messages by these people
With you buddy, if they are getting benefit that easily or they getting in our way. i have no problem if illegals get GC if they pay back-taxes equal to the average amount paid by legals + fine for breaking law and stand in the line behind us.

Dear Folks, I have a question:
For example, if someone's Advance Parole document validity is terminating on (say for ex), July 16, 2009, then, should the person apply for renewing his/her application prior to July 16, 2009? In other words, should a person's application to renew his/her AP document be made prior to the termination of the current one, OR, could this application for renewal be made after the current AP document's validity expires (in this case after July 16, 2009)? Thanks a lot, friends.
USCIS accepts AP renewal applications 120 days in advance of expiring AP. The normal processing time for AP is approx 1-2 months (usually it is about a month). Keep in mind that the new AP which is issued will have an immediate effective date from the date of issue and the start date will not be from the expiry date of old AP. So in most cases you will end up losing some days or even months. If you do not forsee any immediate need to travel you should wait till 30-40 days prior to old AP expiry and then apply. If your travel plans are unknown and you may have to travel if an urgent situation arises, then you should apply 120-90 days in advance to make sure you have AP validity at all times. You will obviously lose some days or months... but then who says everything that USCIS does is fair :)

This is what Ron Gotcher had to say about this wonderful organization:
Quote" Not even Congress has been able to rein in the INS/CIS. Repeatedly, they have passed legislation ordering the agency to produce reports on their backlogs - all of which have been ignored with impunity."
So, I think this is just another tactic to discourage people from getting the information thru FIA by charging some imaginary figure of $5k to get some basic information. This is the heights of Arrogance.

One change I noticed.
Now people can continue in the old system if the I-140 was approved or pending before the first day of the fiscal year subsequent to the the bill being enacted. So if the bill is passed right away, you need to have filed your I-140 before Oct 1 2007.

That is the only option i had open to me...
I am a plumber, no degree, but equivalent qualifications.. dont qualify for H1B, and once you have shown perminat intent you carnt go back to a temp visa..so catch 22 for me.. i had to go out there get a job, and then start the process. And yes my future employer has been very understanding about it. they have been waiting for me for 2 years so far...so am anxious to say the least to get out there.
Strange thing is, in the midst of all this, i have had my fee bill, paid that, and now my attorny has received my DS230, and sent that back yesterday?? so god knows what is happening. even though the dates arnt current.???
i give up trying to figure out what is going on over there. im hoping they will just finish up with it and send it to the embassy in london, so at least it will all be here even if it just sitting here waiting for a number to become available.
My be the november bulitin will show some kind of movment?
lets all hope so.

A friend of mine transferred his H1b from company A to company B. He applied for the H1b transfer and then started working on company B. His H1b from company A expired while his petition was pending with USCIS. He received an RFE after 3 months. Company B responded to RFE but received one more RFE for the previously responded RFE. Now my friend fears that his H1b transfer petition may be denied. Would it be possible for my friend to return to company A and apply for H1b under premium processing even though his H1b with this company expired couple of months back? He has been working all this while on the basis that his petition is still pending with USCIS. Any suggestions or advise would be much appreciated.

A lot of people continue to debate with each other, accuse IV, say all kinds of nasty things that makes us sometimes question why we are working so hard for this cause. Our own people can be our worst enemies. But when you read the stories of harship, struggle and problems faced by members within our community you feel the need to work harder and give your best to this effort. It is a waste of our time and energy to douse fires everyday. There is strength in unity and collective effort.
While we are busy amongst ourselves, anti-immigrats are having party time seeing our state of affairs and they are working overtime to make us unsuccessful. They visited our forum today and saw the article published by our member in media and went to its site and trashed the member of our community. I feel we must try to protect each and every member of our community and this organization in order to bring everyone closer and feel comforted in the outside world where we have enough anti-immigrants hellbent on defeating us.
More than 7 hours have passed and not a single member has written a note opposing the views of the anti-immigrant group that works against us. The reason for not taking part in anything outside this forum is very clear. It is because we are more worried about getting updates, where $20 are going, criticising our own community members and sometimes criticising IV.
Do go here and post some hard hitting arguements to shut up Kim Berry

Thanks pappu for taking care of this. I just checked and saw that someone left me the exact same comments as Admin. It appears some republican here is a huge Palin fan and this guy is posing as Admin and is posting -ve comments for posts that are against Palin and comments that are in favor of Obama :-).

Dear all,
Please assist IV in this important initiative to bring DC's attention to our issues such as processing delays and delays due to retrogression. Who knows what will happen in future about immigration.. I just read that the senate is planning to come up with a commission that will control the legal immigrant limits...
washingtonpost.com (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/05/23/AR2010052304034.html)
It is all the more important to meet and let the senators know what we are going through so that they may think properly for the future.
I have already contributed a humble $50 for this advocacy initiative and will contribute again in first week of June. Please do your part in helping IV and in turn, yourselves.
Regards,
av2004
