    NSC - Plastic Tracker

    But be careful though! It is a good idea to hang around with the same company for another 6 months to a year after the approval, so that no question is raised during the citizenship or green card renewal application process.

    NSC - Plastic Tracker

    Card is sent to you. Once your I-485 is approved, you become permanent resident of US. Nothing your company/lawyer can do to revoke it.

    Where to move after GC?

    From what I have seen, I definitely agree that Atlanta is one of the better places to live even though I am not an Indian (but from the Indian subcontinent). Nobody has said anything about Dallas. Anyone likes Dallas?

    Where to move after GC?

    You know San Diego sounds like the perfect place to be! But, what I would like is a nice little 3 bedroom house (no townhouse), which probably would cost more than 500k? I really hate the idea of worrying about mortgage paycheck to paycheck...

    Where to move after GC?

    Thanks guys for your input. Atlanta or Austin sounds nice. I have heard lots of good things about Austin, but it's a little too small city for my taste. I have been to Atlanta quite a few times, and I really like it there. What are the things that you don't like about Atlanta? I have been...

    Anyone in the same boat? Please advise

    sivajhu, Sankrityayan. Great suggestions! The problem with asking for a raise right now is that the company is about to lay off 20% of its workforce, it probably wouldn't be wise to push them for a raise right now. However, they did put into writing last year that they would raise my salary...

    Anyone in the same boat? Please advise

    Thanks Sankrityayan for your reply. One of my company immigration lawyers told me that BCIS expects the salary to be within 95% of the labor certification amount during the time of approval. This does not make sense to me, given that the green card itself is for the future employment. I am not...
