Hi All, Before I get carried away about my (NIW) approval, I would like to know if the approval can be revoked? I have seen a couple of cases in the past where that has happened. If so, under what conditions can the approval be revoked? And how long after the approval can the revocation come...

Dear All, This morning I got an email from USCIS and saw the magic words! I still cannot believe I am typing this!! I would like to thank each and every one of you for all the help that you have given me on this group over the past year or so. Thank you all once again. Good luck to...

HI, I submitted my response to RFE a couple of weeks ago. I do know that it has reached CIS. However, I see no change in updates when I log in to my account on USCIS website. The last update there was 1st June. Anybody else have a similar problem? trojanblue

Hi, My NIW petition is pending in NSC and I am moving now. Do you guys think it is wise for me to change the service center from NSC to VSC? VSC certainly seems a little more liberal in approving NIW. Thanks

USPTO had received about 395000 applications and about half were approved. So holding a patent does not merit a NIW. It...

Is it alright if in the reco letter, the writer claims that he has known me and my work for over 10 years but has never collaborated with me on any project? Please note that he works in a different company and we have known each other for long and have exchanged notes about our work. I would...
